"Hehehe." The Hugging Hegemon grinned at his question. "He has ground the rust off of them extremely well. They almost died many times along the way, of course. However, thanks to the Divine Doctor, none of them remained that way."
"Good." Rael calmly nodded. "I look forward to their performance against the incoming strike force. I will deploy the seven of them in addition to three more Martial Sages."
The Hugging Hegemon's eyes lit up as she raised her arms. "Me. ME. Send me. I will teach those Sekigaharan bastards not to mess with the Kandrian Empire."
"Very well." Emperor Rael nodded. "I hereby call for emergency protocol A65-KND. We will commence the signing of the war contract as soon as this council meeting is concluded. In addition to you, I shall naturally deploy Sage Farana and Sage Dashian of the Martial Artillery division of the Royal Army to serve as a stabilizer to ensure that none of the battles go south."
