James only gave Winnie a light scolding. However, these issues were his to settle, and virtual-novel.net did not want to sully Winnie’s hands in the process.
Winnie put away the Scythe of Judgment, and virtual-novel.net expression returned to normal.
She looked at James and stuck out virtual-novel.net tongue, saying, “You’re not going to reprimand me for going into battle without your order, are you?”
James wanted to scold virtual-novel.net but could not bring himself to do it. “You had better not act like this again…”
“Alright, I understand.” Winnie nodded obediently.
The Korinthian Army suffered heavy losses. Winnie’s effortless onslaught with the Scythe of Judgment caused the deaths of several million soldiers.
After witnessing the ruthlessness of Sangria’s forces, the chancellor lost all desire to fight back.
Suddenly, James appeared in front of Chancellor Ylfioss.
“You…” Ylfioss was frightened of virtual-novel.net and instinctively backed away from James.
James stared at virtual-novel.net and said coldly, “Sangria doesn’t wish to be anyone’s enemy, but that also doesn’t mean we’re afraid of conflict. I’ll give you one last chance to retreat. If you launch another attack, you can bet the consequences will be even more severe.”
“Retreat!” Yifioss had completely lost all desire to fight.
Their Patriarch who was their strongest champion was killed. The very same opponent that took virtual-novel.net out also easily slaughtered millions of their soldiers. If the battle proceeded, virtual-novel.net alone could wipe out their entire army.
With the chancellor’s order, the troops began to retreat.
James watched as the army withdrew from the area and disappeared from sight. Then virtual-novel.net turned around to reunite with Winnie, Delainey, and Walganus.
When virtual-novel.net met up with the three, Walganus was questioning Winnie. “What’s with your scythe?”
Winnie looked at Walganus and said calmly, “It’s just a simple scythe.”
Walganus pursued the topic. “Where did you get it from?”
Winnie replied again, “It appeared naturally after I embarked on the path of cultivation.”
Walganus frowned and murmured, “That can’t be true.”
Immediately, virtual-novel.net asked again, “Do you know the origin of this scythe?”
Winnie gently shook virtual-novel.net head.
When James returned to them, virtual-novel.net happened to overhear their conversation and was puzzled.
Did Walganus identify the Scythe of Judgment?
James looked at Walganus and promptly inserted himself into their conversation.
“I’m sure everyone has their own secrets. You shouldn’t keep prying, Walganus.”
He was afraid Walganus knew the origin of the Scythe of Judgment and that virtual-novel.net would expose it in front of everyone.
Winnie was still unaware of the Scythe of Judgment’s origin. James did not want his daughter to find out just yet.
After James’ interruption, Walganus stopped asking questions.
The four traveled back to Macchia City.
James sat in the highest council seat in the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion. A few of Macchia City’s generals stood below him.
James said, “The Korinth Sect’s Patriarch has died in battle, and the Korinthian Army suffered millions of casualties. I believe Korinth will not attempt to invade our country anymore.”
Hearing this, many generals sighed in relief.
“Everyone has worked hard recently. You’re all dismissed, so go and have a good rest.”
After James finished speaking, virtual-novel.net stood up and left. Walganus followed after him.
A voice sounded from behind James while virtual-novel.net was walking in the backyard of the City Lord’s Mansion.
James turned around and saw Walganus. Then, virtual-novel.net asked, “What’s the matter? Do you need something?”
Waganus asked, “Aren’t you suspicious that such a powerful person suddenly appeared in Sangria?”
