Chapter 1309: Stranded

A few minutes had passed, and the unfortunate battle between the Zodiac City elders and the Magus Alliance had died down, causing the residents of the city to heave a sigh of relief.

The half-blood warriors were taking their injured teammates back to Zodiac City so they could get better. At the same time, dozens of Zodiac City spaceships were quickly checked for damage.

The Supreme Commander and the half-blood elders could be seen gathering in front of the teleportation gate. The place was silent as an awkward atmosphere enveloped them all because of what had just happened.

Eventually, the stifling atmosphere was broken when one of the half-blood warriors came with a report on the aftermath of the situation.

"Both of our Taurus spaceships are badly damaged, and our Virgo flagship needs some extensive repairs. However, we still have eight of our Geminis ready to fly."

Upon hearing the report, the faces of the half-blood elders and flag bearers instantly turned sour. It was clear they were unhappy with the amount of damage they had suffered.

Suddenly, a chuckle sounded in the hall, causing everyone to turn their heads. It was none other than the Grand Magus Lilith herself.

"Hahha, this is perfect. Without ships, we have a reason not to be involved in their demise, we will stay comfortably here watching them all die."

Even though he heard such words, the Supreme Commander who had regained his calm, decided to ignore her. His gaze was on the door, waiting for the investigation result on the city's teleportation gate.

Moments later, one of his men, an expert on the matter, finally came through and explained his findings.

"We can still use the teleport gate to other places, but not to the academy or Golden City." A frown appeared on the man's face as he spoke. "I believe that the whole central area of the sector has been compromised."

A moment later, another report came into the hall, this time through the communication devices that were installed inside. The Supreme Commander listened to the information intently as various expressions flashed across their faces.

"We can't reach anyone in the academy, we also can't reach the headquarters in Golden City. However, we have sent a message to the nearby enforcers and requested updates from them. So far, there have indeed been dozens of riots in the city, but they still haven't heard of any elves attack."

Hearing the report, the dark-haired Supreme Commander immediately turned to Emery, his gaze so intense that the latter shuddered at the sight.

"Explain about the anomaly in your memory."

Emery was uneasy to see the other party was starting to suspect him. This meant more time would be wasted, while there was only a little over half an hour left before the attack began. But from the looks of it, there was no other way but to explain himself.

"It's… my vision, and the oracle believed it's a phenomenon called time dilation."

It took a few minutes to explain and, as expected, him giving the explanation of what happened only brought more doubts to the one who listened. Emery could see the Supreme Commander was getting more and more skeptical as time went on.

"Please, Commander," He pleaded desperately. "We do not have much time."

The man was silent for a while, causing Emery's nervousness to grow even more. Then, he reached for the communication device and spoke to the officer on the other side of the line.

"Call on the border outposts. I need all of them to check and report their situation every five minutes."

To Emery's surprise, Elder Sinure walked up to him and said,

"What you just told us is quite hard to believe. But, only a select few know about how Esbern was detained in that city. For this reason, I believe you are really telling the truth."

The others in the hall were silent as they digested the Bird bloodline elder's words. A moment later, the communication device rang and the voice of the communication officer was heard again.

"We have an update from Golden City. There was an explosion at the Magus Alliance headquarters!"

This news meant Emery's story had at least some credibility in it. But on the other hand, Emery's anxiety was growing because they now only had less than thirty minutes before disaster struck.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Commander quickly gave his orders upon hearing the news. He ordered the warships to head towards a certain location on the border and remain there on combat alert.

Emery was stunned when he heard the order. Even though he knew he didn't have the right to ask, he still couldn't help but ask.

"Elder… the border? Not… not toward the academy?"

As if he had expected the question, the Supreme Commander swiftly said, "If your vision is correct, then it means the entire sector is in trouble. The Magus academy has many that can provide protection, but there are dozens of planets in this sector that have no protection."

Just like that, the Supreme Commander proceeded to pull all of his men before he himself went out of the palace and flew into the sky, entering the Magus Alliance warships as they were flying away from Zodiac City.

Looking at the disappearing form of the massive spaceship, Emery quickly turned to look at the half-blood elders, "Please, Elders. Please help the academy!" Alas, his plea was met with derision.

"Hah! Being a finalist has really blinded him!" Grand Magus Lilith gazed at him and said, "I do love a good battle, but you also heard our ships' condition, right? Let this be karma for those accursed alliance people!"

Despite hearing such a response, Emery was not willing to give up as he turned his gaze towards the other two elders as well as the flag bearers, pleading for their assistance.

Alas, it seemed his plea had little to no effect on these people, realizing this, he quickly thought of a way to convince them,

"The King told me why it's important for me to win the tournament.. He said it is important for the entire half-blood community."

Seeing them turn their attention to him, Emery knew his attempt was working and thus immediately continued.

"I, a half-blood acolyte from a lower realm, did my part to mend our relationship with the alliance… And even now, I'm still trying my best."

He looked at the prominent figures in front of him and said solemnly, "Elders, if we decide not to take action this time, not only will they blame us even further, we will also lose the opportunity to prove how wrong they are."

A silence ensued in the area, before someone walked towards Elder Sinure. It was none other than the Demon Wolf, Heorgar. The moment he arrived before the Bird Elder, he bowed his head and said, "Please allow me and my White Wolf tribe warrior to take one of the Gemini spaceships."

Emery was shaken when he saw another flagbearer step forward. It was a middle-aged woman with a distinctive pair of horns on her head, the Goat Bloodline Flagbearer, Brava – the person Emery had met before in the camp.

"I too will join in this endeavor. I wish to bring back honor to my clan, which was lost because of what Esbern did."

When another flag bearer stepped forward and seemed about to do the same, Elder Sinure quickly stopped him. With all eyes on him, the elderly figure said, "If we are doing this, it has to be done properly!"

Grand Magus Lilith seemed slightly annoyed, but there was nothing she could do when Elder Kurma the Tortoise Elder joined the fray in favor of the idea. With that, a new vote was determined.

"Then, it's decided! We will help the academy chase away the elves!"

Seeing all this, Emery was so happy that everyone seemed to have come to an agreement. But on the other hand, with the time they currently had, he couldn't help but worry about his friends, especially about one particular figure.

"Klea…"
