Chapter 306: Eastern Allaice Second Meeting In Event

“As I said. Do it, Laura,” Ethan replied, looking at her.

At first, Laura was confused because Ethan’s words seemed different from Yuna’s. However, once she understood what Ethan truly meant, he emphasized that she only needed to follow Ethan’s orders, not Yuna’s.

A wide smile spread across Laura’s face before she hurriedly left the area. Ethan said he would prepare himself first, such as changing clothes and taking care of a few things.

That day, there would be a follow up meeting regarding the situation in the desert region, as well as a response to the reconnaissance reports from several Eastern Alliance cities.

They would all gather in Lion City, sit together in the town center’s meeting room, and formulate the right plan to address the current situation.

Yuna looked confused. She did not know how she should position herself. If she appeared in front of all the city team leaders of the Eastern Alliance, it would surely cause an uproar.

Ethan had actually predicted that some unrest would occur, especially with the presence of Sacred Hall’s city to the west of Lion City.

Several cities in the area would definitely notice Sacred Hall’s city. They would likely question why an enemy city was present in the desert region.

They would demand an explanation from Ethan regarding the current situation.

Once Ethan was ready, he stepped outside. When he looked up, groups of city team leaders were entering Lion City through the four existing gates: the north, east, south, and west gates.

Yuna stood beside Ethan. She smiled and greeted several city team leaders politely.

Some of them noticed Yuna’s presence and even asked Ethan about her. Ethan gave a small smile. He would explain everything once all the city team leaders had arrived.

Yuna heard all of it, and a sense of worry crept into her heart. Still, Ethan showed no sign of intending to harm her.

The woman could only hope that Ethan truly would not hurt her.

One by one, the other city team leaders arrived and began taking their seats in the town center’s meeting room. The room was quite spacious, capable of accommodating thirty people at once, making it suitable for discussing many matters.

The last person to arrive in Lion City was Kevin, the team leader of Ascalon City and also the Guild Leader of Avalon.

The man smiled and shook Ethan’s hand, greeting him warmly. Ethan was genuinely pleased to see Kevin attend the meeting.

Among the twenty nine others, Kevin from Avalon was the only one whose abilities Ethan truly acknowledged.

“Who is she?” Kevin asked, glancing at Yuna as he walked beside Ethan.

“She’s Yuna. The team leader of Sacred Hall City.”

“Sacred Hall? Aren’t they a supporting guild of Redemption Sword?”

Ethan fell silent for a moment, then smiled and looked to the side. “There’s a long story behind that. I’ll explain it to all of you later.”

The meeting room door opened. Kevin walked in and greeted several people inside. Ethan followed, not accompanied by Laura or Hanss, but by Yuna.

Several people showed clear displeasure when they saw Yuna continuing to stand beside Ethan. It was not jealousy, but her status as a member of the Redemption Sword alliance.

Just before Ethan began the meeting, a man stood up and raised his hand. Ethan and Yuna turned their attention to him, as did the other city team leaders.

He was allowed to speak, while Ethan and Yuna listened carefully.

“I respect you as the Head of the Eastern Alliance. We place many hopes in you because we know you are the strongest among us.”

“However, we truly regret your decision to bring a member of the Redemption Sword Alliance into our territory.”

Not only that man, but several others voiced the same concern. They said they did not like seeing an enemy accepted into the desert region.

According to the agreement, the desert region should be occupied only by members of the Eastern Alliance. In this case, Sacred Hall was not part of the Eastern Alliance.

Ethan slowly raised his hand, a simple signal asking everyone to remain silent.

Everyone obeyed his gesture. Not a single person dared to object.

“There is a specific reason why I did not destroy Sacred Hall.”

“That is because they possess valuable information,” Ethan said.

He glanced to the side at Yuna, then refocused his gaze forward, looking at the thirty people present.

“If we have someone who can provide us with information, we can save a large number of soul servants.”

“Aren’t you afraid that her information might be a trap?” the man asked.

Ethan turned to look at him. “I know what I’m doing. And I know exactly what to do if it turns out to be a trap.”

“You don’t need to worry about Yuna. She is safe by my side. If she does betray us, I will personally take responsibility.”

Hearing Ethan’s words, everyone fell silent and accepted his decision. One by one, they began reporting various matters, from the number of soldiers they had to their reconnaissance findings.

Ethan sat in the central chair, listening to the discussion. He continued to allow Yuna to stand beside him, listening to every word spoken by the others.

At this moment, Ethan could determine whether Yuna was a spy sent by Arthur, or whether she was truly Yuna, someone who cared about her guild.

“Yuna.”

“Yes, Sir Ethan?” Yuna replied.

“I’m a bit thirsty. Could you go to the tavern and buy me a drink?” Ethan said. “You can ask Laura to escort you.”

“All right.”

Yuna quickly left the room that felt quite intimidating to her. Once the door closed and Yuna was gone, the meeting began in earnest, intense and highly confidential.

“She already knows all of our reports.”

“We’ll see how Redemption Sword responds. If their response matches what we fear, then Yuna and Sacred Hall are spies!” Ethan said firmly.

“I only ask that all of you focus on recruiting city soldiers. Double the recruitment.”

“This week is for reconnaissance. The final week of this month, a full scale invasion!”
