Meanwhile, outside of the east wall near the portal—military personnel held their guns with sweaty hands. It hadn't been that long since Lucivar's team entered the portal, and the sun was still lingering above their heads.
It was tiring for them to stay in their positions under the sun despite being winter.
Having to wear heavy clothing, it was easy for the soldiers to become thirsty.
But, to support them, the city has made preparations.
"Sir, we're thankful for your service..."
"Please drink this, thank you for your service"
"Thank you-"
Since the military—and the academy hunters were their last hope, the city did not hold back, and provided them with resources as much as possible. Manpower was what the city lacked, not resources.
Being a trading city, their resources could last months if it comes down to it.
Volunteers were constantly sent out to give the military and academy hunters supplies.
