Meanwhile...
A mysterious figure arrived at the battlefield where Izroth and the 9th Division clashed with the Tempest elite troops.
At the moment, the mysterious figure stood before Centurion Aloysius, who was still encased in a thick layer of dark ice.
The mysterious figure frowned and said to themselves, "To not only defeat Aloysius but also activate and survive my lady's Black Winter Fence—the people who ambushed the separate contingent were no pushovers."
The voice of this mysterious figure belonged to the person sent out by Glacia to aid the separate contingent, Prisca. However, her physical features were hidden by a mystical mist that encompassed her body.
When Prisca first arrived on the scene, she found that there were no survivors. Even the carriage that was protected by a combination of powerful magic barriers and an advanced-level magic formation had been utterly destroyed!
