Chapter 572: The Final Preparation

"We should leave tomorrow morning, Your Imperial Majesty. We don't want any anomalies to appear in our plan," Julianne said.

"Sure. Inform the mage army. We're leaving another battalion here," Lawrend replied.

"I understand. We will prepare for tomorrow's departure," Julianne said and slightly bowed.

She and the other two left the room. The only ones left were Lawrend and Ember.

"Nothing to do now but practice magic. Ember, let's go back," Lawrend said and stood up.

He and Ember returned to their room. Lawrend meditated and tried to come up with another suitable chant for his Supernova spell. He was very careful about it because he wanted it to display its full power.

As for Ember, she focused on becoming a Heaven Mage. She felt obliged to become one after hearing Julianne's words. Not only did she want to protect Lawrend, but she also wanted to defeat him.

…

A full day passed uneventfully. Both the Blumin Empire and the Crescent Empire lost five Earth Mages each. They didn't dare to recklessly send people anymore.

The next morning, Lawrend gave a short lesson to the battalion assigned to the city. He also gave them control over the Elemental Storm Magic Formation. It was more powerful now that the army knew how to use the Army Formation version of it.

The two could supplement each other and defeat anyone that tried to fight and attack the city.

The mage army was left with lesser numbers now. Their destination this time was Leafy City. It was four days away with their usual speed.

They could reach it within three days, but that route would be dangerously close to another city under the Blumin Empire. The chance of alerting the enemy was higher.

As usual, Lawrend taught the mage army how to improve their Elemental Storm Army Formation usage. Lawrend would only be satisfied until they could fully control the Elemental Storm.

…

Two days quickly passed. The huge army flew at a continuous pace. They were now a day away from the final battle.

"What did the scouting party say?" Lawrend asked Julianne.

"Your Imperial Majesty, the Blumin and Crescent are still sieging Leafy City. They are unusually taking their time without launching a powerful offensive," Julianne answered.

"Ahaha. They are really waiting for us. I'm actually quite excited," Lawrend laughed.

"Yes. The forces inside Leafy City are already ready to launch a pincer attack."

"No. We're delaying this for another three days," Lawrend said as a slight smile formed on his face.

"But their reinforcements might arrive," Julianne replied.

"Don't worry. Their reinforcements are already there. They are simply waiting for us to arrive. Why don't we annoy them for a bit first?"

Julianne and the two other envoys smiled wryly at Lawrend's mischievousness. He was relaxed and didn't think much about this upcoming final battle. As expected of the prodigy king, nothing could shake him.

"We will do as you say, Your Imperial Majesty." Julianne bowed.

She was very curious why Lawrend was so confident. She remembered the Elemental Storm from before. It was certainly scary, but with 14 Earth Mages working together, it was hard to rely on a single offensive spell.

It wasn't that she didn't trust him. It was just that she could think of many ways to counter that Elemental Storm. First, the other Earth Mages distract Lawrend and the others before wiping out the whole mage army.

It was also possible for them to dodge the Elemental Storm because there were a lot of them. Some might die, but it would be impossible to kill them all unless the Elemental Storm could chase all of the Earth Mages.

Not to forget, there was a high chance a lot of Earth Mages were hiding in the offensive. It was too reckless to rely on a single attack. And even if he also used his Supernova spell, could he use it repeatedly?

Something that powerful could only be used once or twice. It might bring them some advantage, but this was still ultimately the territory of the Blumin Empire. More Earth Mages would arrive and support the enemy.

If they allowed more time to pass, the more time those Earth Mages would have to arrive.

Meanwhile, Lawrend was pretty relaxed. He didn't think much about the upcoming battle. He wanted to use this chance to train the mage army more. Although it was still impossible for them to control the Elemental Storm to chase after Earth Mages, they could widen it.

With a wider Elemental Storm, it would occupy more area and deal more damage. Its power would also not diminish by much because of the mage army's improved coordination and understanding of the army formation.

And so, three days quickly passed. During this time, Lawrend gave the mages more and more lessons. At this time, about 10% of the High Mages had become Arch Mages. It was a huge conversion rate.

By the end of this battle, there was a huge chance that this mage army would be solely comprised of Arch Mages. At that point, it would be a scary army that would be the nightmare of their enemies.

Arch Mages might be common in empires, but it wasn't common for them to be able to work together as well as Lawrend's army once they went through all of the upcoming battles in the future.

After that, they continued their journey to the west. It was finally time for them to fight the final battle.

This battle might only be taking place at the edge of the Blumin Empire, but it would also dictate its fate. With many Earth Mages participating in this battle, it would be hard for the Blumin Empire to recover if they all died.

Lawrend's army released their powerful auras wantonly as Leafy City appeared on the horizon.

Colorful lights were flashing from there as the mages in the city were defending it from the attacking army.

This city was actually a part of the Blumin Empire before, but the Trunden Empire took it over.
