After the Undead Army was annihilated entirely, the folks in the fortress were finally relieved of the tension that lasted for a month However, the soldiers were the only ones ere relaxed as Rhode delegated the sentry duties to the Battle Angels and let the soldiers off on an extended holiday The exhausted soldiers cheered with both arms raised, but this didn’t mean that Rhode had it easy He was still responsible for the post-war losses and personnel replenish particularly worthy of his attention As the Undead Creatures failed to breakthrough the city walls, the fortress didn’t suffer any daes internally apart from the destruction the Skeletal Trolls and Vampires left on the city walls However, these issues were minor and one could easily repair it or Rhode could simply tap on the system interface and spend some money to fix them
On the contrary, the situation with the number of casualties wasn’t as simple
He had lost nearly a thousand soldiers, which was an acceptable nuainst an arional arrave losses, especially at the start of the battle when they were inexperienced in facing the Undead Arh the number of casualties slowly decreased as the days passed, two-thirds of their forces were gravely injured post-hich was a huge nuh they successfully repelled the eneloomy complexion However, this was a war and no matter how prepared one was, unexpected situations were bound to happen If they were to speak about anything fortunate, they could be thankful that the Battle Angel Army was around to heal their injuries and only a few nu the war
In addition, there were els were responsible for clearing the re them into ashes Thereafter, they held carnival banquets to celebrate their victory Apart from the Ocean Elves eren’t interested in festive occasions, almost everyone in the fortress participated and used thistheir family members and friends
On the other hand, the ‘998’ sales plan that Rhode and Gillian ca that the Undead Army was completely destroyed, the reinforceroup their forces Before they left, their representatives asked Rhode about the Holy Maiden Statues Even though everyone are of the Holy Maiden Statues’ advantages and flaws, the situations that they were in were different from Rhode’s, after all
Rhode had a lack of manpohich hy he had no choice but to use the Holy Maiden Statues to make up for their offense But this didn’t appear as a problem to the reinforcements as they had sufficient ic cannons If they could also obtain this legendary artifact in their territory, they would bethe Undead Arreed without much hesitation He passed the details to Gillian and appointed her and Ann for negotiations The other party agreed to hand over the deposit first and pay the re the Holy Maiden Statues There also weren’t issues with the delivery Although the Magic Fleet couldn’t be used as cargo shi+ps, it wasn’t tough to search for a few floating merchant shi+ps to transport the itees in the other battlefronts
Unsure if it was due to the annihilation of the Undead Army led by Cullen, the other Undead Arns of hesitation for the first tidoes, they were still stable and strong Not only that, but the Country of Light’s defensive line also repelled the Undead Arht tried to recover their lost ground and Rhode was astounded when he heard this news He doubted that his knowledge had been completely subverted by this world and only until he knew that the defensive line was guarded by Archangel Boulder and the Battle Angel Aroodness logic still exists in this world
Rhode was neither happy nor depressed that the Country of Light defended against the Undead Army since they would either be destroyed by him or the Country of Darkness in the future anyway He would be thrilled if the Country of Darkness were to defeat Country of Light and leave theht defended against the Country of Darkness, he wouldn’tah he wasn’t hateful toward Lilian, based on his understandings of the Country of Light, he knew that it was als
Shortly after, Rhode threw this matter to the back of his head and shi+fted his attention to the plan before hi the Undead Arh to eliminate, where it had affected places of up to a thousand miles away

The heavy doors opened gradually A young lady with an aqua-blue, waist-length silky hair stepped forth in her luxurious noble attire She lifted her head proudly and confidence filled the gaps between her brows She swept a glance with her pitch-black eyes and her i aura instantly muted the servants hispered into one another’s ears and lowered their heads humbly She let out a snort and shi+fted her attention to the front—an Elf young lady in a white robe scuttled toward her with a vibrant smile

“There are so?”

The clean, tidy room was in complete silence The thick curtains concealed the vibrant rays of the sun Andre leaned against the head of the bed vacantly with layers of white bandages wrapped around his chest He no longer looked as arrogant and confident anymore Instead, he looked like an ice-cold corpse
“He has been behaving this way ever since the Dragon Soul Ceremony ended…”
Cheryl bit her lips and turned around unbearably
“He didn’t speak a word after he woke up Although we have gotten the Archbishop from the church to dispel his curse, he has become an entirely different man I think… He still hasn’t stepped out of his trauon Soul Ceremony He blames himself for the death of his men and Teacher Soderfast’s injuries I… I don’t kno to console hiazed at thesoftly
“Andre?”
“…”
