Hearing his words, the Head of the Great Families' eyes shone with hope.
"If that is true, which should be, then we can win this fight. Not survive, but win," Irus Family Head exclaimed, his eyes brightening up.
The others were the same, as their lose hope was regained from what they managed to learn.
"W-we should tell the soldiers! This will improve the morales, especially when they learn their Duke will ascend to the next realm!" Head of Konosti Family said.
As the Genesis Sea experts voiced their approval, Ryker shook his head, "No, we will not tell them of the Duke's ascension," he said, his tone a sign of it not being a request, but an order.
"By why, My Lord?" the High Captain asked, looking at him questioningly.
"Because, we could not afford the enemy to realize the Duke will ascend. If they learnt of it, they will launch an even stronger assault, one we could not hope to fend off," he explained.
