All the leaders of the animal-human race who had been loyal to Elos gathered at Rolir's house, they sat at a large square table with cautious faces.
Not long after, an eagle man arrived in the room and shouted "Report! The enemy troops are already on the move, they will arrive in this city in 5 hours at the latest!".
Elage nodded "Thank you for the information, you can go first and continue observing the enemy's movements!".
"Well!", replied the eagle-man soldier, hanging straight away.
The faces of everyone in the room became increasingly gloomy, none of them joking anymore.
"Have there been any signs of the master's movement?" said Rolir worriedly, they wouldn't be so panicked like this if Elos were still around.
Elage shook his head "My eagle human eyes did not dare to go to the Deathly Forest at all, therefore they were just waiting around him. But I did not get any information from the Deathly Forest, since the new master disappeared in that forest 2 days ago then there is still no sign that master will return".
"What about you guys?", asked Bare who was staring at Zeyi.
"Our results are no different" said Zeyi, who was busy opening the banana peel in her hand, since she lived in the Tiger-Man City area, she ate bananas 3 times a day.
The Tira who was on the other side became increasingly panicked "What should we do? Without a hint from the master then it is very difficult to act".
"We can't fight in Tiger Man City!", Wefo said without the slightest hesitation, his eyes very sharp looking at everyone "Even though the entire city was already covered by a wooden fence but it was still very weak, and his eyes were very sharp, the enemy can destroy it easily. Moreover, as long as we fight in this city then there will be many dead residents, besides that they might try to destroy the forest and poison the lake for our food and drink to disappear. So fighting in the city would be very detrimental".
Zeyi nodded "It is better to fight directly, but we must determine our fighting position in order to help each other. The number of our troops is already less than the enemy, if we do not help each other as well then we must lose".
After Zeyi's words, everyone became silent because they had no ideas. They are loyal to Elos, not to anyone else. So it is very difficult to determine the position of each of their troops, he said, however, no one is interested in being in the riskiest position as in the front row unless their master, Elos, lets them do so. This made everyone in the room become silent, Zeyi also shook her head.
When they were silent for a while, Bare was the one who spoke first "We bear-human race will take the front position, I will take the earliest risk! You must remember carefully, we are at war for having the same master, we must not let our master lose! So let's not hesitate, we are not a different group anymore, now we are all in the same group that is the followers of Mr. Elos. This is just like when we were in the Animal Man Kingdom, didn't we think our race was so important? All of them were the forces of the Animal Man Kingdom, as well as now! We're Mr. Elos' army".
Everyone was really touched by Bare's words, Rolir immediately spoke "We tiger human race will be the right wing of the bear army, with our speed then it is fine to be like cavalry".
"Then the werewolf race would become right-wing" Wefo said.
Tira said, "We can use bows and other long-range weapons, we will give you support from behind. Besides, some of us can fight on the front row without any problems".
Then everyone stared at Zeyi who had just finished his banana, after all only Zeyi who had not spoken yet made everyone look at him.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I would betray just because master is lost?", said Zeyi smiling mockingly to everyone "We the ape-man race will not betray someone whom we have already given allegiance to, so no need to worry. We ape-man races can fight in any position, but aren't we better suited to fight the adventurous army? After all both adventurers and ape-men have little in common, we behave in a less orderly manner that is not in accordance with the attitude of a soldier".
Everyone nodded, Bare was the one who shouted first "Then it is determined, all the troops are leaving!".
...----------------...
Thousands of troops departed from Tiger Man City, they rushed towards the enemy troops who had nearly 2 times more soldiers than them.
When the armies met, there was not the slightest fear of the army of animal-men who followed Elos, even though they were outnumbered but they stood still full of confidence.
In the enemy army, they used 3000 Ruher City troops to go head-to-head with the bear race while Loin led the lion men to fight Rolir.
For the leader of the scorpion and snake-man race, they stood in front of an army of werewolves to face each other.
The adventurer army stood quite far beside the main army, but they were already prepared for battle.
Loin looked at Rolir in front of him coldly, although he used a man-owned army, representatives of the Ray Kingdom agreed that he was the one who would lead the army in this barren land against Elos.
"Rolir, we are old friends so I will give you a chance once again, give up! Didn't the man in the prophecy escape first? It is better to side with the Kingdom of Ray, in that way you will no longer have to worry about hunger or the future of our animal race. Hows it? This is your last chance" said Loin confidently, convinced that Elos had fled so that he did not appear in this war.
But Rolir did not answer Loin's question at all, he simply drew his sword and pointed towards the enemy "There is no need to say much anymore, all the attacking forces! We are the army of Lord Elos and will never cooperate with humans!".
"Graaaa!".
A very loud tiger roar, Rolir led an army of tiger men and other groups of followers to directly attack Loin's forces.
Before anyone could move, Rolir had already made a move that made everyone very surprised.
Bare, Elage, Tira, and Zeyi who were on the other side regained their senses "All the troops are attacking, don't lose to the tiger human race!"
