290 The Ministry (2/2)

On the other hand, Miya and Diana who weren't fully aware of the situation were confused a little.

Avalon has already told Miya about the reason why Wallace was doing all of this and she already mentioned it to her Manager Diana. However, they didn't take it seriously before so they were a bit stunned seeing the atmosphere around the three.

”Do you mean... the empire that the prince noted in the records?”

Erza suddenly asked as she approached them.

”Yes..”

”Hmm... They will arrive within two days, huh. About the Virtual Game, do think that they're forces were similar to the Dorssian Empire.

”I'm not sure. But it should be a good comparison considering the information I gathered from Veda...”

”Is that so? You seem to know a lot given that the record only provided little information about their strength...”

”Oh, I found other sources and I can't tell where I got them.”

”Very well... Do you think that you can capture some of them alive?”

”That's what I'm trying to consider, I'm afraid that if I kept someone alive, they may find a way to communicate with their headquarters and hasten their search on this route and discover this planet.”

”Sigh~ Tread carefully then. Just act on something you're sure you can handle. I may have a limited authority with the Ministry but if you needed capable magicians and pieces of equipment, you can ask me instead. I'm still not fully sure how to help and fight against an army coming from a foreign planet. But if you can give us more proof, I can guarantee you that the Ministry would do its best to help you. As a matter of fact, we can influence the Congress' decision and we may bring this up to the upcoming summit.”

It is the truth, knowing the future events not necessarily mean that they could prevent it. The two powerful clans even failed miserably on their space launch. Only Wallace has the capability to handle space warfare and the most that they can do was to support him with their resources.

Yumi and Lacus gave similar advice as they were willing to support him at all costs.

Wallace took a deep breath as he decided on what to do. He'll capture the enemies and prevent them from sending out information while on his watch. To do this, he needed to borrow powerful mana artifacts from the Ministry and he needed to go up there as well to execute his plans...

Hilda cast her most powerful magic spell to fight against the Mech Frames.

The modified and strengthened Traceless Oscillation managed to deal heavy damages to the surrounding Mech Frames.

”Everyone! Escape! Now!”

They have no desire to fight to the death against the Mech Frames and used this chance to flee! The other magicians together with her even managed to cast more spells to totally destroy the near Mech Frames after they came out of the cockpit.

They were already lifted in the sky for about 500 feet on the ground but it didn't deter them to jump away as they relied on their magic spells for a cushion.

”We did it!” Hilda said as they landed on the ground and used a haste spell to run away.
