For a moment, Michael felt helpless.
Seeing the progress of his territory and imagining all of it getting destroyed by tens of thousands of enemies made him stare blankly ahead.
Fortunately, his helplessness subsided quickly. If he wanted to survive and ensure that his people wouldn't succumb to a miserable fate, they could not afford to sit idle.
The first thing he did was also the most difficult; he informed his people about the upcoming war. Michael revealed as many details as possible while trying to make the worst information sound nonchalant and less troublesome than other details.
Unfortunately, his subjects weren't stupid.
"What should we do?" Liopham asked when Michael finished his explanation.
The Forest Elf didn't sound desperate. He didn't even think about running away either. On the contrary, Liopham stared at Michael with determination.
Lilica, the other Forest Elves, and everyone else present turned to Michael as well.
