The Goddess Of War

Chapter 196 - Preparation for War

"I have a request." The goddess Yolin.

"What's that?"

"Can you lend your subordinates to help the Elves drive out the invaders?"

"They?" Anna turned her head and looked at the Elf she had thought of as her friends, who was still unconscious at the altar. "Are they capable of doing it? I mean, isn't the colonizer strong?"

"They are very strong. That's why I'd like to ask you to lend me their strength. If there were them, perhaps the Elves would have a chance to drive out those invaders without a long struggle."

Anna knitted her brows. "Why don't you and him help your nation? Wouldn't it be easier if you stepped in?" Anna then looked at the god Eru who had just stood still behind the goddess Yolin.

After finding out Anna was inside the body of the goddess Ann, the god Eru did not dare to speak a word. The god who was famous among the gods, as the grumpy god did not even dare to look at Anna anymore.

"We can't. We can't do it. If we intervened, a war between the gods would definitely happen."

"What?" Hearing that, it made Anna even more confused. "If it would have such an effect, why would their god not prevent his people from colonizing other nations?"

"The law of the gods does not allow us to interfere in all manner of acts of living beings under our responsibility. Unless their gods help us directly, we are allowed to intervene. Because if so, their god will be subject to his punishment."

Anna was silent to hear it.

'It turns out that complicated life is not just in the human world.'

"But why did Ann Arnix do it?"

"He didn't do anything wrong. He wanted to capture those lost angels and..," the goddess Yolin suddenly fell silent.

He finally realizes why the goddess Ann lent her body and power to Anna.

"So that's it.." The goddess Yolin muttered, then smiled.

"Yes?"

"It's okay."

Anna looked at the goddess Yolin curiously, "So it's like something's going to say, isn't it?" think Anna.

"We have to go back now. They're getting further away." Said the goddess Yolin while looking at the Elves.

"What's? Who's getting further away?"

"They" said the goddess Yolin, pointing to the unconscious Elves at the altar. "I sent their souls to the gate of nothingness. I have to call them back before they go any further, or they'll be completely dead."

"W-what? So they..."

"Yes. I have to do it so they don't wake up before we're done talking."

'I don't feel any life from them. He's ruthless.'

"Regarding the ones earlier, I'll give them a message. It all depends on you. If you're willing, then the Elves may be safe."

"wait. But, did not the colonial nation ever come? How did the Elves expel the invaders first?"

"Then, the war was fought for six thousand years. The colonizing nation finally left after depleting resources on our planet."

Hearing that, Anna became agitated.

"Why don't you just help them? Wouldn't by letting them, you'd make your nation miserable? Then, what are you guys for?" said Anna, who cared nothing and was afraid that the goddess Yolin would be angry with her, if she was offended by her words.

Goddess Yolin smiled. Her smiling face looked very pretty, as well as very creepy.

Although angry, he did not want to respond to Anna's insinuations.

"They don't have much time left. We have to go now. Good bye, Anna. It's good to see you."

"Aps... Wait!"

Not yet had Anna to speak again, the two Elf gods had disappeared, replaced by a statue that stood in the same place as before.

Not feeling any Mana energy on the two statues. Anna growled in annoyance.

'Dangerous... He wants to bestow trouble in his world on me?!'

•••

As the Elves recalled, before they were unconscious, Anna was fighting and managed to hit the statue of the god Eru. But they did not see when the god Eru released his arrow. It was at this time that the goddess Yolin drew the spirits of all the Elves who were in the sacred temple, so that they could not see the true form of the god Eru.

"Is everything okay, great goddess?" nobara asked Anna, when she saw the statue of the god Eru was standing back in its place.

"Yes" said Anna, forcing her smile. "Look, they gave a message to all of you there," Anna pointed to the 'stone plate' in front of the Elves.

As all the Elves turned to look at the message their god had left behind, Anna's smile disappeared from her face in place with an angry expression on her stomach.

Nobara stared at the 'stone plate' that said,

"3 envoys of the invaders will come and take thousands of their troops through the black hole in 13 days. Be prepared."

"So their arrival time is only thirteen days away?"

The faces of all the Elves looked grim. Including Nobara and all the Elves of Anna's followers. Even though they did not want to live on the Elf planet anymore, they still thought about the survival of their people who were in that place.

"You, help the Elves to drive them out." Anna told Nobara.

"Is it okay if we stay?" ask Nobara, doubt it.

Anna took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

He then tried to show his smile as best he could when he saw the faces of his followers Elves look hopeful. He knew that they were actually eager to help his nation.

"It's okay. I'll be here with you guys. We'll also ask for help from Drucalla's army." Sahut Anna's.

Anna then turned to look at the statue of the goddess Yolin.

'This time, I will help with the problems you have ignored.'

•••

After exiting the gate of the sacred forest, Anna instantly opened the gate of her inner world and summoned an army of Elves from the Wind Clan. Nobara then brought his troops to return to the territory of the Wind Clan to prepare before the war against the invaders occurred.

Meanwhile, Nyrna and Glynka went to the Ice Clan to help his clan prepare a combat army and train its warlords to have a little extra better fighting techniques, all they had learned from Anna and from their battle experience in the hundreds of Dungeons.

Anna herself follows Fael, Eleanor and Glynka to return to the camp of the Fire Clan.

With the presence of Fael, Eleanor and Glynka whose fighting power has grown many times than before, the Fire Clan's war forces become much more eager in preparing to fight against the invaders.

After the time of the arrival of the invaders had almost arrived, all the Elves gathered near the storage barns of their respective clan's magic crystals. Of course to welcome the arrival of the enemy, who came with the aim of draining away those resources.

Meanwhile on Earth...

After the death of the entire best Hunter City C led by Wang Chu Gong, City C was in a state of grave crisis.

Very many Dungeon gates are now neglected and just waiting for a dungeon break.

City C really lacked a high-ranking Hunter stock.

The best Hunter they have right now is a Robin Lloyd-class Hunter who is still ranked A. There are still many high-class Hunters from the 4 large guilds, but they are all B-ranked Hunters.

Citizens of City C can no longer hope for Brandon Lloyd, who they think will return to duty immediately after his release from Hunter prison.

Although many residents have sent direct requests to get help from the Hunter, Brandon never wanted to return to work.

Without people knowing, Brandon is not actually in City C. He was undergoing a period of recovery after Anna wasted most of his Mana energy, until his rank dropped drastically from A to D.

Morgan Lloyd had brought the Hunter to get treatment and Mana energy boost specifically in City A, with the help of demon pills from Li Wen Xia.

Seeing the crisis that occurred in City C, Morgan instead read it as an opportunity to increase back the popularity of the Black Diamond guild that had fallen very deep.

So, he did not heed the request of the citizens of C City to request that Brandon immediately return to City C. Morgan wants his son to first raise his rank to S rank and will return when he is completely ready and he will come as the city's savior hero.

To answer the demands of citizens who continue to urge the Lloyd family, Morgan uses his cunning wits and throws blame on Anna whom he accuses of being the mastermind behind Brandon Lloyd's strike after getting slander from the girl.

Hearing that, many citizens of C City who ultimately hated Anna more and more.
