Not a Sliver of Joy

After receiving the news, the higher-ups already made use of the fleet of ships to seal the space passage. Both sides have started fighting and have both sustained losses.

And since no space ships flew up from the blade demon base, those few tonnes of spirit metal should still be there.

Now that the space passage was locked, they just needed to worry about how to attack the base and get the gold.

At the same time, they need to watch the spirit metal mine to prevent the blade demons from sneakily digging the remaining spirit metal.

They also needed to notify the federal military to watch the blade demon planetary warriors.

Although the spirit metal reserves didn't reach a level that required planetary warriors to fight to the death, if a planetary warrior intervened, it wouldn't be so good.

The blade demons probably thought the same.

The thing they wanted to do the most now was probably to transport the spirit metal out.
