Chapter 809 - Night Time
Phex agreed with Xaon, continuing where he left off as he said, "Indeed. It's not like I had to fight four guys at the same time as I did in the Underwater City. The situation with Frin and Huo's group was also uncommon since it used Roan's trap."
Rean nodded in response before saying, "I see. Anyways, I can still help everyone recover from the damage you received. Since there isn't anything serious, I should be able to bring back everyone to top condition by tomorrow morning. That will be our advantage. While the Zasfins would need many pills and other treasures to recover, you have me. It won't be long before this balance is broken."
Phex's group nodded as they soon made a queue in front of Rean.
As for Roan, he kept receiving reports from the humans and sentient demon beasts. Even though the first day was over, he had to prepare for the next one, thinking about where he should allocate the next troops.
On the Zasfins' side, Fikin and the other Transition Realm experts had also rested to recover from the first day of battles. No one was happy, but no one was angry either. Fikin then began to read the reports of what the army commanders experienced, only for him to noticed something. Soon after, he looked at Vance Hafel, one of the 'three' Transition Realm experts of the Hafel Clan and said, "The Hafel Clan seems to be putting a lot of effort after what happened in the headquarters, huh? I can see that they've saved the day on quite a few fronts."
Vance nodded in response, replying, "Indeed. Although our clan thinks that this treatment you gave us is wrong, we do feel a little responsible for the loss of the formations, as well as Celis. That being said, the best way to recover our reputation is to obtain the best achievements in this war. All the other clans are trying to save their forces since they don't want to be at a disadvantage after the war is over. However, we're using everything to prove that we're definitely not staying still while the demon beasts take what is rightfully ours, the Zasfins."
Fikin nodded in immense satisfaction after hearing that. He was also one of those extremely displeased with the Hafel Clan after what happened. If not because of the Soul Rulers' laws and the Hafel Clan having three Transition Realm Experts, he might have gotten rid of them already. However, their instance in this war had always been proactive. In fact, the Hafel Clan was already acting like that even before Rean went to Watisan City to talk with Sevinia. With that said, even Fikin began to acknowledge their actions to redeem themselves.
"Very good. I won't talk about what happened anymore as long as you keep this up. After all, it's not like we can get Celis or the formations back," Fikin said as he placed the reports about the Hafel Clan on the side.
Vance, of course, was satisfied with that. "That's good enough for us." Of course, he was even more delighted inside. After all, he was one of the very few who knew about the truth of the Hafel Clan's achievements in this war. 'Let's see how all of you think about us once this is all over.'
Back at Sevinia's side, she called Qia to have a talk in the Hafel Clan's army. To make sure it would be a secret, she used Spiritual Sense Messages to talk with her. 'The first day went better than I expected. Tell me, what do those two boys intend to do tomorrow?'
Qia shook her head, saying, 'I don't know. The ones who created the plans were Rean and Roan, not me. I'm only here as their messenger. If you want, I can ask them right now.'
Sevinia nodded after hearing that, saying in response, 'Go ahead.'
Qia then used her brooch to contact Rean, who was still healing the demon beasts. 'I see...let me ask Roan.' Rean then used his Soul Connection with Roan to ask. However, Roan was very succinct with his words. 'I have a few plans, but it might change during the battle tomorrow. Just tell Sevinia that when the time comes, I'll tell her to move their clan's army.' Without any other choice, Rean could only deliver the message as it is.
Sevinia couldn't help but narrow her eyes when she heard Qia's words, telling him, 'For your own good, he better not be trying any tricks. We aren't idiotic enough to solely rely on his plans. If something goes wrong, we do have our own methods to strike back.'
Qia nervously nodded as she delivered the same message to Rean and Roan. Of course, Duran, the 'deceased' ancestor of the Hafel Clan, immediately came into their minds. 'Roan, do you have any idea what that old man is planning?'
Roan shook his head, saying, 'I don't know. However, nothing good will come if he decides to open his mouth. All we can do is leave him to his own devices and focus on our part.'
Rean felt somewhat worried since Qia was still acting as their link to the Hafel Clan. Nevertheless, he decided to put his worries at the back of his head for the moment.
The night went by as the two sides recovered their strength. On the other battlefields, nothing had changed much since the last time Roan defeated Huo's forces. One must remember that although this was the main army, there were many others trying to secure good territories in other places.
Eventually, the second day arrived as the two armies got ready for another day of battle. Phex's group, of course, headed straight to the last area where they fought, and so did Fikin's experts. "Now then, shall we start our fun?"
Fikin laughed back at Phex, not minding his eagerness as he replied, "Hahaha! Sure. Let's spend another day playing then."
Because there were very few injuries the previous day, Fikin and the others didn't pay much attention to the condition of Phex's group, much to Rean's satisfaction.
Roan, on the other hand, decided to ignore those guys since there wasn't anything he could do about it. Instead, he gave the order for the low-level forces to move as he sternly commanded, "Start!"
