Bab 668: Eve of Battle

"Of course not," Emperor Varan calmly replied, not surprised at all by his imperial guards' doubts.

After all, the Sacred Tirtha was a very large piece of land, even larger than the Delarosa Household by ten times, and possessed countless shamans and witch doctors. If every Shaman and Witch Doctor were an enemy of humanity, striking the Sacred Tirtha first would deal them a serious blow.

On the other hand, targeting the Delarosa Household first would only alarm the Sacred Tirtha and give it time to prepare itself.

Moreover, countless warriors across the empire were indebted to the Sacred Tirtha for its gracious healing and treatment. Thus, the rallying power of the Sacred Tirtha would be quite frightening if they suffered injustice and decided to retaliate against the imperial family for a righteous cause.
