"Sigh… Eli-chan~ Our Little Han is crying again. When can this mission end so that we could go back to the dragon place and comfort our poor little baby!" Wisey's voice rang on Eli's mind as she dutifully sewed the materials for the masks and gloves.
"I too very much wanted for this to end, but you know this was not easy… Why not go to him and tell him that I'm fine?" Eli responded.
"Aiyoooo, you know that I can't leave you be when it is only you and Doctor Kayden in here. What if something happens? For sure, our Little Han would immediately feel it if I suddenly disappeared. It is good that Baobao is there… He knows what to say." Wisey insisted.
Just like Baobao, Wisey can also be reverse summoned on Little Han's end. But since Eli was in such a dangerous territory, her heavenly mission to protect Eli at all cost prevailed. Although, she could not say this fact straight to Eli.
"Alright… then let me focus on this job so that we cannot give anything to reveal our identities. We have already come this far with Big Brother Kayden.. We cannot alert the enemy so early."
As much as Eli wanted to see Little Han at this very moment, she held back and chose to do her duties. After all, she and Leon did this for Little Han's future. They wanted a safe and peaceful future for him and the next generation ahead.
As such, they were making this big sacrifice.
A day passed without a hitch because the news of the war has not yet reached their ears.
However, that is not the same for the officials in the Holy Island who were now at the underground basement discussing what preparations they have to do to respond to their Lord Raven's demands.
"I have called you all here because of the recent activities outside the island.
I want to inform you all that the Seirende Empire had revealed the involvement of the Vanderford Empire and our holy island as well with the curse power.
Thus, it was revealed to all the Prasinos that they will wage war against us."
The Cardinal announced with a heavy expression.
Everyone was silent as they were shocked to hear that the Seirende Empire did this move on them.
"Hah! Such a bold and insolent empire!" The priests, deacons, and chief clerics all expressed their contempt toward the Seirende Empire.
"Even so, that is not our main concern at the moment. It was our lord Raven who had become enraged about what happened.
Because in the process of unraveling our cover to the entire world, we have lost an important vessel, Crown Prince Ranon!" The Cardinal explained and distress was evident in his eyes.
"T-this… How could it be?"
"How is our Lord?"
The people expressed their worry about the situation. Most of them however were scared because they knew how it is when their lord became angry.
Those who were unlucky to commit a mistake in his presence would be the poor receiving of this wrath!
"As you have feared… he is incredibly angry at the moment. None of us dared to ask him further and could only take all his instructions to follow.
The Pope and the Paladin are also on their way back as they were summoned by the Lord to report as soon as possible…
As for everyone in the room, the Lord has instructed our temple to mobilize our resources and send our temple knights to meet the Pope and the Paladin in the Vanderford Empire. We must prepare for an all-out war!" The Cardinal announced.
"Did that mean that all of our stocks at the moment will be deployed at once?" The Administrator asked with a shocked expression.
"Precisely… we do not have a choice. What was even more problematic was that the Lord wanted everyone to have enough of our supplies, we cannot send them half-equipped!" The Cardinal sighed as he rubbed his aching temples.
"Not good! Our production is still far from enough… Although I should admit that the new materials made by those siblings doubled our worker's efficiency, the Lord's demand is too high for us!" the Line Leader complained.
"Lord Raven's anger was still at its height… we cannot let him hear this complaint." The Administrator reprimanded the Line Leader who spoke out of turn.
Cleric Rhoda also did not like the way the Line Leader let out his thoughts and so she sternly reprimanded him.
"It is not his business to think about how we would achieve the goal… that is our responsibility! We will have to do what it takes to please the Lord or else, we will be the subject of this wrath!"

Upon being reminded of the fact that the lord they serve was ruthless, the Line Leader's face paled in fright. He could not bear to imagine how it would be if he was the one to receive Lord Raven's wrath.
For all they knew was that none of them died so easily.
All of them were tortured beyond comparison…
The Cardinal remained silent and was rhythmically tapping his aged fingers on the table while thinking deeply. There was something in his mind as he listened to the discussion about the workers.
After some time, he opened his mouth and asked, "Those siblings you mentioned? Who were they? How come I did not know about their contributions?"
"It's like this Cardinal…" The Administrator then explained how they were able to commission the disguised Eli and Kayden to make some gas masks and gloves to protect the workers.
He did not forget to also highlight how the materials they made greatly reduced the sickness and death incidences among the workers, as well as how they doubled the production capacity in less than a week.
"They are that impressive?" The Cardinal raised his eyebrows in interest.
"I dare say yes…" The Administrator replied honestly.
"If that's the case, then I have an idea in mind. Call the siblings over tomorrow and let us test their wits. If they were able to produce the materials you required for the entire labor force when they are only two, then they must have some talents.
Do take those whom you also see worthy along with the two. Let's gather up some talents and make them think of a way to resolve this concern.
At most, we only have two weeks to catch up as that would be the fastest time possible for the Pope and the Paladin to reach the Vanderford Empire."
The Cardinal relayed his instruction and looked at the administrator and the rest.
"We will do as you say, Cardinal." They all replied because they thought that the Cardinal's suggestion made sense. They need to gather talents such as the siblings to resolve the issue of the production.
While they already have this plan to carry out, the officials in the main temple were still unable to have a good night's sleep as they were haunted by the fear of disappointing and angering Lord Raven.
That is why when the morning came, Eli and Kayden were immediately summoned to the Cardinal's office along with some talented workers both on Eli and Kayden's previous workforce and the inner workforce inside the temple.
The Cardinal examined the faces of the people gathered in front of him, meticulously scrutinizing everything, even using his powers to discern their feelings.
If Eli and Kayden did not prepare for such powers (mainly due to the fact that the Pope could read minds), they would be easily suspected.
"Your respective superiors brought you here because we have a matter that needs your ideas for us to resolve…"
Then the Cardinal briefly explained the matter of the war to the group and the predicament they were in.
Eli and Kayden matched everyone's expression when they heard about the war.
Of course, they do not miss the fact that they concealed the reason why the Seirende Empire decided to go against the temple and the Vanderford. He went as far as saying that the Seirende wanted to rule the entire Prasinos and was now going against the 'heavens'.
With that, the cardinal also explained that because of this they needed to deploy the temple knights immediately but they could not go to the war unprepared.
They need the 'healing' potions and the 'defense' potions with them to protect themselves and increase their chances of winning.
"While we have never told any of you the entire process of the matter, I'd like to ask you first if you are up for the challenge.
Are you willing to take part in the great mission to expedite the production of the supplies for our temple knight's safety?"
The Cardinal asked with a benevolent expression and a voice with a hint of righteousness and pleading.
Eli, Kayden, and the rest of the group looked at each other. They paused to think for a while, showing hesitation on their faces.
However, after some time, they looked as if they found their answers and replied, "Yes, Cardinal… we will do our best to help."
