Emperor Renardier stood fearlessly at the forefront of his army in his full set of Low-level Rank 5 golden-white armor. He also had a Low-level Rank 5 greatsword sheathed and strapped to his side and held his sallet helmet in his left hand.
By simply standing in front of his army, Emperor Renardier easily boosted the soldiers' morale. They felt like he was going to lead their attack, which he did intend to do.
The Kingdom of Black Rose may have shattered his confidence in strategies, but he still had absolute confidence in his strength.
After Emperor Renardier put on his white sallet helmet, he pulled down the visor for full facial protection. Then, he drew out his greatsword with a firm grip and an increasingly intensified gaze.
Although it was important to conserve his strength for unexpected variables, he was also the only person who could take down Fort Whitebridge's defense without consuming a gargantuan amount of resources.
