After hearing that young man say such a thing nervously, those four people looked at each other for a moment, realizing that the situation had worsened since their departure.
"What happened?" One of them asked.
The young man from before then began to describe the current situation. "In the last few days, the Allen family alliance has been putting more and more pressure on us. And with the arrival of the people from the Collins family, things have only gotten worse!"
"Recently, we have lost several battles, in which many of our Spiritual Generals and even some Spiritual Kings have fallen. At the same time, we lost part of our territories around Stone Island, especially the island where we were receiving the resources traded by Miss Elen."
That had happened not only since the arrival of the Collins family reinforcements for the House Allen alliance. Such losses by the Nash family alliance occurred since the great confrontation months ago during the attack on the Black Plain Army naval base.
At that time, the Allen family alliance had gained a good advantage against Elen's family. And even with the departure of the enemies from Farmland, it hadn't changed the situation of House Nash all that much.
That is, they had not been wiped out because of this change, which was great!
But that had been all.
After that, House Allen had gained the upper hand in the war. They constantly put pressure on the alliance made by Elen, having caused several losses for this woman in recent months.
But with the arrival of the Collins family specialists, things had once again gone extreme for House Nash.
So, for a few days now, the losses had started to get big enough for the leaders of this family to come to the conclusion that if something didn't happen soon, that would be the end of them!
"That's how it is..." One of those two individuals at level 54 said this as he understood more about the Nash situation.
Celeste then closed her eyes for a while, trying to imagine the current situation of this island, so crucial to the Black Plain. 'This Allen family is a pest, always finding spaces to change the development of things...'
'We have to do some heavy damage to that family, or the trouble won't stop coming during the war!'
She then asked. "Are the patriarch and supreme elder Allen in town?"
"Uh? Oh, yes, they are!" He said, turning to look at that beautiful brown-haired woman.
"Where are they?"
"In the same place as always. At the Allen family headquarters."
"Throughout the war, they only left their headquarters when big battles were happening. Other than those occasions, they are always on post at that place."
"And how is the trap we ordered? Are the baits ready for action?" She asked as she remembered what had been planned by Minos and Elen.
The plan was basically to get the attention of the Allen family leaders by using some of Elen's high-ranking family members.
After all, if such people were left 'unprotected,' it would be a chance for one organization to try to wipe out the other in one battle.
A war wouldn't be settled so quickly, but as long as one side lost its core, the other would only have to do the careful work of pursuit and assassination.
With that, sooner or later, the side that eliminated the core of the other family would win the conflict.
As a result, suppose the patriarch and some high-ranking members of House Nash left their headquarters at this time. Then it was very likely that the high-ranking enemies would try to exploit it!
That was the bait that Celeste had just talked about, the central part of the ambush against the leaders of the Allen family.
Gulp!
"Yes, they are ready." The young man answered, just after swallowing his saliva in nervousness.
He didn't know the details of what would happen, but he was aware that the patriarch would make his move right after this group reached Old Stone. And since he was no fool, this young man understood that such a thing probably involved great danger!
So, he couldn't help but feel nervous about what would happen from now on.
"Good..." Celeste calmly said as she sat down on a cushion on the floor as if preparing to cultivate. "Let them know I'm already here."
"They can start the plan as soon as they are willing. My group is already ready to act!"
"Yes, I will let them know immediately!" The young man said before leaving that place in a hurry.
...
While Minos and Elen's plans were developing on Stone Island, some terrible news constantly arrived for King Cromwell.
In the capital of the Cromwell Kingdom, this influential regional expert, one of the strongest Spiritual Kings in the region, level 59, was almost beginning to pull his hair out in anger.
The cause of it all?
The fall of the Chambers family!
But this was not because he had a great attachment for the people in Leroy's family.
He did not.
In fact, when he found out about the Persephone Tragedy, this king could not help but be happy!
After all, he did not like the Chambers and only did not act against such an organization because it had not done anything outside the kingdom's rules. And in order not to attract everyone's hatred and fear towards himself, he and his family had tried to stay away from that organization of hot-blooded people.
Despite the fact that the Chambers were most likely cancer that would eventually cause problems for them, the Cromwell family leaders were still outraged after discovering some disturbing things.
Instead of just falling for an internal enemy, the Hayes family, which the royal family greatly welcomed, something else seemed to have influenced the conflict of the Chambers and Hayes.
That was because, from the information the Cromwell family had received from allies, subordinates, and other outside helpers, the so-called Chambers family had taken a couple of hard knocks before Persephone Tragedy.
Almost simultaneously, the Chambers patriarch had disappeared, and six high-level Spiritual Kings had died in Yellow City.
After that, within hours of Dean's disappearance and minutes of the deaths in the Kingdom of the Waves, the battle in Persephone had begun.
The timing was truly incredible!
But this was too much of a coincidence for the people in the Cromwell family not to think that there was something else there.
As expected, upon further research, they discovered that Yellow City's action was related to some power from the Snow Kingdom.
On the other hand, an unidentified level 57 Spiritual King had been sensed in the vicinity of the Chambers family territory a few days before Dean's disappearance.
And with that, they had begun to investigate the whereabouts of all the level 57 Spiritual Kings in this region, especially those from the Snow Kingdom.
After all, there weren't many of them around this part of the Central Continent. And with the Cromwell family's many spies scattered throughout the kingdoms, it wouldn't be that difficult to get information on most of them.
But just as they were investigating, an anonymous letter that had arrived at the family headquarters a few weeks ago emerged with crucial information.
This letter talked about the Chambers' connection with the death of the second prince of the Snow Kingdom and how this had to do with the competitor Minos killing Leroy Chambers during the last Spiritual Tournament.
After learning that Minos was likely involved in the Chambers family experts murders, King Cromwell realized that the Persephone Tragedy was made possible by an outside force.
Perhaps the Snow family!
That had made King Cromwell furious!
He had been disrespected by a mere prince, who had dared to act in his house, without his even being notified!
There was no respect on that prince's part for him, a king. On the contrary, it was as if the other side was simply belittling him!
But that he could not accept in any way. As such, James Cromwell was at this moment in his royal hall, red with anger as he finished receiving the information from Minos' letter.
"Bastards!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
