Weak talk about an assault on Roxandros led Ermis and Silas to abruptly abandon their mission and head back there. They took the fastest path, in contrast to the Xuthos soldiers, who choose the safer path. That route was more dangerous, the road was slippery and rocky. Not many people take that route because they are afraid of robbers and wild animals.

Ermis and Silas finally reached Roxandross, and they met the king.

[King] “Have you got the ingredients? And where is Nik?”

[Ermis] “My apology, king. But this is an emergency situation.”

The king looked at them in confusion.

[Ermis] “Nik is a spy from Xuthos. Currently, he and the Xuthos soldiers are on their way here to attack Roxandros."

[King] “What??? He is a Xuthos soldier?! W..Wait. Hold on. Explain it to me.”

[Ermis] "Yes, king. They want to take over Roxandros while you lose focus because of the queen's condition.”

[King] “How dare they do this!! "

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

The king clenched his fists. Ermis, for his entire life, had never seen the king like this.

[King] “Ermis, gather troops! we are going to face a big war.”

When the king spoke about the big war, Ermis suddenly gasped, and he remembered his dream at that time. He tried to remember his dream, what flag it was, and who the leader was, but couldn't get a clear vision. Then Ermis immediately did what the king ordered. He gathered troops to prepare.

The time has come... The Xuthos soldiers are getting closer to the gates of Roxandros.

Slowly, he began to remember his dream again, and he realized. The flag he saw was the Xuthos flag, and the leader of the soldiers was Nik.

The war between Roxandross and Xuthos has begun. Many residents fled in fear, trying to save their goods and themselves. Houses and buildings also burned. The sound of swords clashing and people screaming extremely loud. Sweat mixed with blood began to drip from both soldiers.

At one point, Ermis stood in front of Nik.

[Nik] “Hey, Capt! I don't want to injure you, so move away!!.”

Ermis prepared his sword, as did Nik, who pointed his sword at Ermis.

[Nik] “Just leave your stupid king!! If you joined Xuthos,. You can become the greatest warrior!!”

[Ermis] “Never ever!!! I devoted myself to Roxandross!!!”

They fought with each other, swinging their swords.

At one point, Nik was caught off guard, and Ermis drew her sword at him. He had no choice. When he drew his sword at Nik, the vision of their journey so far appeared in his mind. Nik, the leader of the Xuthos army, died at the hands of Ermis. Upon Nik's death, the remaining Xuthos soldiers lost their leader and withdrew from the Roxandors, admitting defeat. This war was finally won by Roxandross, despite suffering numerous losses.

[Ermis] “I will always remember you, Nik… as my enemy… and my partner.”

Ermis raised her face to the sky with tears streaming down her face.
