The Dragons were happy that they managed to take the front line away from the Phoenix, but news came that Ruandeurtin was taken over by the Empress and was given to Aldred.
They did not think much of it. Ruandeurtin was only one section of the entire battle. The Empress couldn't possibly get much benefit from it.
But Lord Athar thought otherwise. Since Aldred was the one who obtained the treasure, his power must have been greater than normal Diamond Ranks. It was also weird that the Empress focused her army on Aldred.
With this speculation, Lord Athar decided to increase his army.
The other noble lords followed his footsteps. They did not know why he did what he did, but it had been proven that following him was a very wise decision time and time again.
A few days later, they received a shocking news that Aldred had attacked first. He and his massive armies given by the Empress easily rolled through the first fort—Coinnerelle.
