CHAPTER 1526 DO YOU HAVE A PLAN?.
"That woman, She is fooling us all!
She doesn't want you as a subordinate, she is simply using you and will throw you away once she is done with you." Zarathor shouted and Nyssara narrowed her eyes. "Is that your way of getting into my head? I have to say, Zarathor, you are smarter than I give you credit for. To think you would rely on things like battle tactics. Or is it because you can see your end and this is your body's last straw before everything falls down?" Nyssara chuckled, she didn't want anything to get into her head and her deviate from her goal. Zarathor's words, however, were more impactful than she expected. Nyssara wasn't a fool either, something inside her was telling her that something was wrong in this situation, she was constantly doubting her decision to side with that woman, however, her head refused to believe that it was true. Because if it was…
Then it might become the biggest mistake of her life. Zarathor, however, didn't stop. "You fool! Think about it for a second!
She is making you fight a War! You might be winning, but you are constantly losing your loyal subordinates and that woman hasn't made even a single move, it is as if she wants this to happen! She wants you to lose your subordinates!
Think properly, what value do you provide her other than the army you lead? If she wants to use you in order to get her hands on the Association, wouldn't it be in her best interest to preserve your army so that you remain useful? What could you, who had lost so many of your subordinates, even do if you went against the association? Even if you do win this war and all my subordinates join you, you will barely have 5000 Ultimate Stage Powerhouses under you, you will still be 1000 Powerhouses short when compared to the combined might of the other two leaders!" Nyssara paused. All this while, despite being in doubt, she never stopped attacking Zarathor, now, however, she paused and distanced herself from him. Knowing that his words were working, the Hornari continued, "She or her organization won't help us. If she wanted to use her own men in War, she would have done that from the start. Or maybe that's what she was planning to do from the beginning! This war, it was only meant to weaken the Association. If you continue the War after this and kill me, you will lose more subordinates, even if you think positively, my 1500 subordinates will kill at least 500 of yours. That's 2000 more causalities in total. With just this battle, our army, which should have 9000 capable men, will only be left with 3000 of them. That's two-thirds of our strength and two-fifths of the Association's strength! Do you not see it!? Once this War ends, that woman will discard you and the rest of your subordinates, then she will bring her own army to destroy the Association!
Yes, her plan was never to take over the Association, we hold no meaning to her, she plans to annihilate us entirely and devour all our worlds!
She is not our ally! She is an enemy! An enemy far greater than any enemy we have faced in our lives!"
Zarathor shouted and this time, his words pierced through Nyssara's defences, her entire body shook without stop, as her last resistance, she retorted, "Y-You are talking quite a lot, especially considering that you are the one who went to her in the first place." Nyssara's thoughts were clear, if Zarathor hadn't deflected to her side, the woman probably wouldn't even know about them or their Association.
It was all Zarathor's fault. Yes, Nyssara was convinced, his words held no power in this situation, But…
"I don't even know this woman!" Zarathor shouted. "This is my first time seeing her!" "You dare lie in this situation…" Nyssara's body trembled in anger. "I said that in the very beginning, I am not lying! I do not know this woman!" "You yourself admitted to knowing her and even bowed your head in front of her just a few hours ago, how dare yo-" "That was an act! You were coming after me and I was desperately trying to find a way to survive. That was the only way I could think of, I just didn't know that I was playing right into her hands. That woman is too cunning! All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
She is fooling both of us!" "And how would I know that you are not making all of this up because you are desperate to find a way to survive right now?" "Oath of Death." Zarathor didn't hesitate and took out the black paper. "I am willing to take the Oath of Death that if I as much as even knew about her or her organization's existence, let alone seen her, I will die right here and now.
You can write the conditions however you want, I will not resist." Zarathor spoke as he passed the Oath of Death to Nyssara. If it was before, he would have never fallen so low, after all, his pride wouldn't have allowed him to bow before Nyssara. However, now that he knows how desperate this situation was, he had no choice but to use it as his last resort. "…" Nyssara turned silent. She had no counters anymore. Zarathor's words were becoming more and more convincing. Slowly, she raised her hand and stared at the woman hovering above, the woman stared back at her with a simple smile on her face, seeing as how she didn't say a word despite everything Zarathor said, Nyssara realized that what Zarathor said was indeed the truth. However…
Along with that, she also realized one more thing. Seeing how the woman was staring at them without any sort of frown on her face, she realized that it was already too late. The damage was already done. That woman already achieved what she wanted to…
Nyssara gulped, she tore away the Oath of Death in her hands, then, she showed her back to Zarathor as she turned towards Vyriana. "Do you have a plan?" She questioned. Zarathor, who realized that he finally managed to win Nyssara's trust sighed in relief, then, he stared at Vyriana as well and, "Of course I do." The Hornari smiled.
