The day of the battle for the continent arrived.

  This was not a battle in a region where one could attack and retreat. The side that lost had to be sacrificed to the Infinite Well. In this special battlefield, losing meant death, and no matter the amount of supporters behind Sungjin or Kapitle, if one of them lost, their followers were bound to surrender.

  The entire continent was interested in the direction the battle would take. “We’ll only know the results after the battle, but the battle is in the Wise King’s favor.”


  “Yes.” That was the only fact that Sungjin’s people admitted.

  This was a battle for the continent, and, accordingly, Kapitle’s strength was immense. His powers that ruled over the sacred steed and sacred spear were truly fitting of Odin’s heir.

  It wasn’t that Sungjin had never been pitted against Kapitle before, but everyone knew his teammates had been defeated one by one before Kapitle himself. Although Sungjin was added to this battle, his enemy had added a level 7 Duke to his team, and, moreover, this was not a battle that Sungjin could enter with his defensive maneuvers all planned out. This was a battlefield where Kapitle had likely hidden traps.

  Would it be possible to win against an enemy you’ve once lost against? They didn’t believe that Sungjin was going there to be defeated, but they also couldn’t wrap their heads around how he could win. He would have prepared something, but would it be enough?

  Sungjin was in a very disadvantageous situation. This was a fight he should have backed out of.

  Sungjin had also admitted that. When strategies are made in this kind of situation, I’d be likely to lose.

  Sungjin considered the Wise King while going over his plans in the waiting room. If they were able to fight with divided lands, he would have had a chance, but after one defeat, Kapitle had changed the rules of the battlefield to one decisive victory, and Kapitle’s attacks with Sleipnir and Gungnir was a critical problem in this one decisive battle.

  Well, I suppose having it easy isn’t fun either.

  This was a battle for the continent. It wouldn’t be worth it if his enemy wasn’t strong. Wouldn’t this obstacle be just enough for this victory to become a legend?

  But a crisis was a crisis. He couldn’t be certain of his victory.

  The decisive factor would be how well he could wing the entire battle and how much preparation each of them had gone through.

  Those two things were key.
