360 Border Defence Part Two (1/2)
Command tent Alicia, King Augustus, Tang Guanting, and Grandpa Mu. ”So it's Adrian?”
”Yes, he has gained a very strong power that is even greater than mine. It stems from a kind of ancient soul I am guessing, that is named Bergath. They seemed to have fused together making two beings in one but at the same time two separate beings. Whether it has used its full strength or not is another story though. But what is even more shocking is the army they have. Over one million strong and they are all extremely powerful.” Alicia explained.
”How strong?” Grandpa Mu asked.
”Umm… About as strong as you and Uncle Guanting. I could easily wipe them out but Bergath is placing a barrier around them that protects them if I attack.” Alicia brow furrowed when she thought of all the ways she had tried to kill the invaders only to be blocked by that barrier each time.
”This is very troubling then...” Tang Guanting sighed.
”Yes, he won't let me interfere but our army and you all can attack at will. If we can hold out, Tereax said he will have a few battleships ready for us soon that will have the power to turn the tides of war. But in the meantime, we need to hold them off for as long as possible.” Alicia had already spoken to Tereax about the situation outside. This entire time she was on her journey the people of Farlan were not slacking at all. They had used her magic power as a means to create some terrifying shields and weapons that they implemented into three battleships. These ships were untested but actual field testing was better than the simple tests that they could do.
”How long?” King Augustus asked.
”Two weeks… We need to hold out for two weeks. Until then we should evacuate all citizens of Alastine to the capital. The shelter there is already built and can hold every citizen of Alastine and more.” Alicia answered.
”Then we do as you say. Alicia, I am handing command of the front lines over to you. I will go to each village, town, and city and evacuate everyone.” King Augustus said as he stood up. He knew he had no time to waste and making sure of the safety of the citizens was of the utmost importance right now.

Three days later the front lines…
”Little Lady you are not playing fair!” Bergath's voice filled the air.
