Chapter 227: Morning strategies

"They're coming!!!"

"The enemy is coming!!!!"

The once tranquil campsite had erupted into chaos as dawn's first light cast an eerie glow on the scene. Shadows danced among the trees, and the air was thick with tension.

The knights, clad in gleaming armor, sprinted in every direction, their footsteps stirring up clouds of dust. Fear etched deeply into their faces as they desperately tried to sound the alarm.

Amid the chaos, Rizoar's looming threat was unmistakable. Their forces had swelled overnight, doubling in size since the previous day. The enemy's presence loomed like a storm on the horizon, a daunting omen of impending doom.

"Lady Aiko! Lady Aiko!" Tess, Aiko's devoted priestess, stood resolute in front of the tent where Aiko slept. Her voice was a clarion call, cutting through the chaos like a blade.
