The rand ardoht now, at the boundaries of Sherry, twenty thousand soldiers had already assembled These hastily assembled soldiers were per over here, and then they would be also be sent to do battle

“We’re going to fight a full on war against the Baruch Kingdom”

Within a quiet, secludedat the northern skies The person responsible for this battle wasn’t Arfan It was Guillerst the masses, Cardinal Guillermo had more

And…

Wharton, Linley, Barker and the others were standing in a line in the iant areda pointer on top of it “Milords, the icite mine is here If it is just the Radiant Church that attacks us…the place we should choose to fight at is the prefectural city of Sherry”

Linley and the others all nodded

“However…” The ed man shook his head “Unless the Radiant Church’s coone stupid, they won’t choose to attack here”

“Oh?” Barker raised an eyebrow

If they had to fight their way froicite mine, they would have to travel nearly a thousand kilometers if they followed the road On the road to the e and small The Radiant Church would battle us for a thousand kilometers, deep within our territory? Nearly half their forces have to rearrisons with their borders with the O’Brien Empire and the Rohault Empire Only half are available to attack us”

“Therefore, our ed man pointed at Sherry “At the sauard inside our city walls while they attack…and they are forced to fight through our territory for thousand kilo for death”

“Therefore, if the Radiant Church wishes to attack us, they only have one option Join forces with the Cult of Shadows They have no other options!” The edto the side “The Cult of Shadows shares a border of over a thousand kiloicite ht here!”

Barker also said, “In addition, I can also provide you with over thirtythe probleedodo

Soon after Linley had reached the Saint-level in his human form, Barker had as well Once he transfor Warrior Saint Barker, who already had mastered the ‘i that they had over thirty icite cannons, Watts’ eyes lit up
