Holy Knight Empire's camp, command center.

Inside the camp's biggest tent, Emperor Renardier and countless nobles, lords, and high-ranking commanders gathered around the battle map.

"What is the status of the Kingdom of Black Rose's forces?"

Emperor Renardier enquired with his gaze fixed on the witch kingdom's three border regions, marked with several black flags, indicating the positions of their battle witches.

"There are about 15,000 – 30,000 battle witches in Fort Whitebridge, 5,000 – 10,000 battle witches in Fort Ironhaven, and 10,000 – 15,000 battle witches in Fort Dragontail. According to the Deathsworn Group's information, they also have about 40,000 – 50,000 battle witches stationed in each border city," Ulrich reported.

"So we're only looking 150,000 – 205,000 strong in the border regions at most, huh? A tenth to an eighth of our army…" Emperor Renardier muttered with a frown.
