- In a snowy mountain. -

A man wearing a fur chest piece calmly looked at the capital as their army charged through their gates. A woman wearing a red gown appeared. But because it was dark, only her pale and glamorous body could be seen.

"Is this the best you got? Look at them. They are all dying! Isn't this the First Battalion, your strongest army!"

"My lady, I'm offended. An army as weak as this isn't my type."

The lady also joined him and watched the attack on the castle walls.

"What's your plan? Is this attack on the west side a bait?"

"Correct, my lady. Right now, the other surrounding cities are being razed by my ten Battalions. Sooner or later, the Royal Family will face my battalions on the castle walls unprepared."

The lady sneered upon hearing the plan.

"Unprepared? That will be hard since Paragons could get caught in this mess. Even if you tried to stop the messengers, these Paragons could talk with each other in their worlds."

"That is why we also have Paragons on our side. They said they'll handle it by doing something called Fake News in their world. I could only trust them since we'll never get to see their world anyway. But for us, it's our job to continue attacking."

The lady turned around and prepared to leave. But before leaving, she had to vent off her curiosity.

"So, where did you send the First Battalion?"

"Dragonmir."

- Tanyang Fishing Village, Dragomir-

CREAK!

"Ugh! Oof! What the hell is really going on? A war all of a sudden?"

Those were the first words that Kane uttered upon digging his way out of the fallen boulder.

The oblivious Paragon couldn't help but scratch his head and wonder what was happening as the whole was burned down, and there were falling boulders in the sky.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

But in reality, all of his questions could be answered if he just watched the TV. NPCs might not know anything, but players should've predicted this situation after the events in the Red Border.

CLANG!

"Huh?! What was that?!"

Kane immediately crouched down in reflex.

"Oh! There must be survivors!"

He crawled toward the sounds like an idiot, although no one was actually watching him.

"Yaaah!!"

"Don't be scared! We need to fight!"

Kane looked to his left and saw villagers and players trying to fight the invaders.

As an emissary of Justice, Kane immediately stood up and joined the villagers.

"Yeah! Let's kill them! Fight! Fight! Fight!"

With his active determination, the villagers knew that he was one of them. Altogether with Kane, they raised their weapons and shouted.

"Charge!"

A female player with a yellow crossbow caught Kane's eyes as it was firing arrows made of wind.

"Woah! That's a cool-ass crossbow!"

"Yeah, I got this for joining the army. It had unlimited shots since it was powered by wind."

"Oh, really?!"
