Chapter 245: Springfield - Invader's Reinforcement.
In the heart of the battlefield, the forces of Verdantia and the invaders clashed with relentless fervor.Aurora Riverwind, observing the unfolding chaos, maintained a composed demeanor."Lady Aurora, I think we should intervene and end this now," Vulcan Ignis urged, his impatience evident.Aurora's gaze remained fixed on the ongoing battle. "Not yet. Let the pacing continue like this. We're not losing, and the battlefield is evenly matched."Vulcan frowned. "Exactly. That's what I'm saying. They want it to proceed like this so their reinforcements can arrive."Aurora turned to him, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Don't worry about that, Vulcan. I'll just sweep the battlefield myself then. Let them think we are under their palms."Vulcan raised an eyebrow. "You have a plan if worse comes to shove?""Don't forget, Springfield is my territory," Aurora replied confidently.Her assurance silenced further objections, and the commanders continued to monitor the battle.On the opposing
Chapter 244: Wetlands of Springfield.
In the days that followed the Blood Roses’ silent conquest of Galecrest, Oasis moved with cunning precision.He began circulating through the city’s merchant district, holding private discussions with both humble shopkeepers and powerful trade guild leaders.His pitch was simple but effective: "War is on the wind. Galecrest must be protected."With 50,000 gold coins at his disposal, Oasis funded a sweeping recruitment initiative under the guise of civic defense.Mercenaries and independent guards were brought in from nearby regions—grim-faced wanderers, seasoned adventurers, former soldiers—and stationed along the outer walls and main arteries of the city.But what the merchants didn’t know was this: every replacement allowed Oasis to quietly withdraw the Blood Roses.Within two days, the innward district became their stronghold.Of the 1000s Blood Roses stationed in Galecrest, nearly all now resided in that central area in the Innwards region.A skeletal crew remained on patrol, blen
Chapter 243: Crimson Dawn, Silent City.
Every man and woman tied to war—mercenaries, corrupted nobles, Stormreach spies, Enlightened, Awakened hiding behind coin and masks—were slain that night under the leadership of Oasis Volacris.The Blood Roses were silent ghosts.Under moonlight and shadow, they flowed through the city like liquid steel.No scream echoed.No alarm was raised.Every target tagged by Oasis’s soul-link perished.None escaped. Not one.By dawn, Galecrest's war-fueled arteries had been cleansed.In the Innward District, a macabre ritual concluded.Thousands of bodies, stacked like logs, filled the central plaza—soldiers, guards, Stormreach operatives.Blood still wet on the stone.And at the center, Oasis, standing tall beneath the paling night sky.With a wordless motion, he extended his palm, and from his fingers cascaded cyan flames—otherworldly and pure.The fire didn’t roar.It sang. A cold, melodic hum as it danced through the corpse pile like a sacred ritual.The light refracted in crystalline shade
Chapter 242: Divine orchestration
"Barrier Magic: Aetherion Dome," Oasis whispered from the rooftop, his voice low and serene.In an instant, runes spiraled outward from his open palm — ancient glyphs of ethereal light and order.They spiraled like stardust across the midnight sky, forming delicate threads of luminous silver and azure.The runes twisted through the air in elegant, spiraling paths, guided by Oasis's will and the sentient pulse of his grimoire, Aetherion Veil.The entire city of Galecrest shimmered, cloaked in a nearly invisible dome that fell like a silken veil across its spires and streets.The magic didn’t crackle with violence — instead, it resonated like the final note of a lullaby.The barrier was flawless, absorbing external noise and sealing the city from outside forces, both magical and physical.None would leave.None would interrupt.And then came the tide.One by one, Blood Rose operatives unleashed their aura, each like a silent gong struck by their will.Then, simultaneously, their spiritu
Chapter 241: First Victim.
After Oasis transmitted his command through the mana link, there was no hesitation, no murmuring of doubt.Every single member of the Blood Roses—once Black Roses and Blood Letum—received his words with silent reverence.No protests. No resistance. Only resolve.They were hidden in every corner of Galecrest: in shadowy alleys, atop city walls, nestled among market stalls, or mingled seamlessly within the patrol units.Some lounged at taverns as travelers, others manned the armories or kitchens of guard barracks.A thousand Lunarians disguised as Stormreach’s own… and no one had noticed.Inside the inn, the atmosphere remained deceptively warm.Laughter echoed across the hall.Plates clinked, boots thudded against the wooden floor as mercenaries danced without care, wine sloshing from silver mugs, and hired musicians played cheerful battle songs.Oasis, Venak, and Shiye now sat at a quiet table on the third floor, separated from the revelers below by only a thin railing.The table was
Chapter 240: Blood Roses.
Unbeknownst to its leaders, Galecrest City, the jewel of Stormreach’s eastern border, had already fallen—not by sword or siege, but by something far more insidious.The Black Roses and Blood Letum—elite infiltration units of Lunaris—had slipped into the city like whispers in the wind.Over a thousand Lunarians now moved unnoticed through the streets, hiding in plain sight.Some donned the armor of city guards, having quietly knocked out or silenced their counterparts, storing their unconscious bodies in locked barracks and armories.Others posed as traveling merchants, innkeepers, or citizens, having assumed identities through swift, silent strikes and arcane concealment techniques.The real citizens were subdued without a sound, hidden within their own homes, bound and preserved under sleep-inducing spells.To all outsiders, nothing seemed amiss.Even Oasis, with his spiritual perception honed to frightening precision, had not noticed the infiltration at first—a testament to the perf
