Reinforcements

"To save them or not? That really is a problem…"

"Stop joking around. Of course we must save them. The entire Mist Alliance is constructed upon a relationship of trust where allied countries assist each other in times of need. Do you really think that we can afford not to save them?"

"To be honest, I really don't want to save them."

Although I was saying such things, when the Sharal Autonomous Region sent us a request for reinforcements, East Mist unhesitatingly stopped all of its new year preparations and sent out its army to reinforce Sharal.

However, I was saying such words about not wanting to reinforce Sharal due to another piece of information other than the beast stampede.

"A Fire Elemental Plane Dimensional Door? This is such an obvious pitfall."
