chapter 658 regroup
compared to the chaos that was gripping the advisors and seers within all the cities of the nation, the chaos on the battlefield was nothing.
for one brief glorious moment, they had all seen the greatest divine treasure in the world appear. then mere seconds later, all the visions ended. their premonitions vanished as if the trigger had never existed.
the archbishop and nacht shared a concerned look as the seers began to panic. all of their abilities had been triggered by the event, and then it was over, gone, vanished without a trace.
"do you think that it might have been taken through time by the mystery combatants?" the archbishop asked.
the seers slowly nodded in agreement. "that seems like the most likely outcome. we don't recognize the aura of either of the parties involved in the attack on the hidden holy relic, but bishop misty was present, and sided with the one who was not a titan. the most likely scenario is that she will have taken it through time, but the current her will have no knowledge of the event, as she has not done it yet." the two totems sighed. dealing with temporal dragons was tricky. you never knew what they actually knew. they liked to hide things from themselves so that it would be a surprise when it happened. a little treat that kept their lives interesting.
nacht frowned. "i will send a message to the temples to keep an eye out for her so that we can ask her what she knows about the incident, but i strongly suspect that she's not going to know anything except what we know from after the change in the timeline.
how and why she interfered is unclear, but we can start with monarch karl and his team, who should have been close enough to get some information about the situation."
that was naturally assuming that they would survive the battle. the beast master's team had the world dragon's own luck, and they were on the weakest side of the offensive, with considerable area attack abilities. if they weren't concerned about drawing the attention of and provoking stronger foes from the other fronts, they could clear the entire north side themselves with relative ease, from what nacht and the archbishop had learned of their skills.
after a few minutes of staring at the monsters while the troops on the line caught their breath, and the last of the soldiers equipped the ice cleats, horns began to ring out in the distance, signalling the invading army to retreat.
"i really don't know. i say we give it thirty minutes. by then they will be off the adrenaline high, and they should be thinking clearly again. it will make for better packed supplies." niall suggested.
he knew that there was a guideline for this, he had just never cared what it was. he had been an inquisitor since he became an elite, so he had never been the one who had to make the decision, only pass it on.
a few of the officers looked like they wanted to say something, but they were not brave enough to question the judgment a monarch and an overlord, so they simply stayed silent for the half hour while karl silently updated the troop deployments on the map until everything was gone, and the last of the troops on the west side were reported by hawk to be getting close to the border.
"alright, have everyone pack up. the battle is over, there is nothing left to fight." karl announced.
orders were shouted down the line, but karl could hear that the radios were crackling to life again, restoring normal communication.
then, a system message appeared in karl's vision.
