Chapter 803  Betrayal

The two captains are actually the two heads that Patimura saw when he met the unknown creature.

The two guardian captains are not moving from their previous area and fighting each other. At the same time, the Gram horde in the distance somehow ignores them and continues moving towards the Glass Fortress direction.

Previously, the two captains beat the fifth-grade Gram they had fought before. However, Captain Gofrey suddenly blocks his move and prevents him from helping the other Guardian.

After knowing Gofrey\'s bad intentions, the two captains fight each other and come to this situation. Currently, Captain Gabel is trying to break through Captain Gofrey\'s blockade.

However, Gabel notices something weird about his long friend. The two of them should deplete quite a lot of mana during the previous fight. Yet, Gofrey seems capable of fighting without a problem.

He wasn\'t even tired, while Gabel was already in a low mana state. If he is forced to drink mana potion at this state, he will enter mana deficiency later.

At his age and current level, entering a mana deficiency state is too dangerous and could result in death. This also shows how massive Gofrey\'s mana is compared to Gabel.

Gabel knows Gofrey\'s mana should not be far from him. This sudden change confused him further.

\'It is as if he has completely become a different person.\' thought Gabel.

"As I said before, we.. no you should not go back now." said Captain Gofrey nonchalantly.

"Why?!!" asked Captain Gabel in anger.

"Because it will only lead you to pointless death. Did you not notice it? Leader Patimura\'s presence is gone inside that thick mist. There is not even a shockwave or shake in the area. We are facing someone that could even trap the mighty seventh grade." said Gofrey.

"Facing such an existence is only throwing one life." added Gofrey.

"Huft.. Huft… How about the Guardians?! Are you going to abandon them?!!" asked Gabel while trying to calm himself.

"Does it matter?!" asked Gofrey back.

"What?! Are you out of your mind, Gofrey?!!" roared Gabel furiously.

"No. Isn\'t this what we always do?!" asked Gofrey.

"What do you mean??" replied Gabel.

"We fought countless battles against the Gram. Sacrificing thousands, probably millions of lives, just to protect something we don\'t understand. Such a faith… Such a belief… I think another few hundred lives will not change anything." said Gofrey gloomily.

"Now, we should just wait and preserve our life in this situation. If we fight back, we only end up being a useless corpse. We could fight to death just for the Guardian\'s creed and belief. I will also fight to stop you from moving further."

"Gabel, you are worthy of my respect and a dear friend. I will not send you to your own death. This is my current belief and conviction." said Gofrey resolutely.

"Are fucking nuts?!! If we fought together, we could still fight back like those fifth-grade Gram." retorted Gabel.

"No, Gabel. It is a futile movement. In front of those terrifying forces, everything is futile." said Gofrey.

"Then, what did you plan?! Just stay here waiting for the mercy of whoever it is?!!" mocked Gabel sarcastically.

"You know it\'s never my style to wait for death." said Gofrey.

"Then, why?!!" replied Gabel.

"Who knows?! Maybe I was fed up with all these or I just want to create more chaos in this situation." said Gofrey playfully.

"You are fucking mad!!" roared Gabel

Seeing the madness in his friend, Gabel decisively chugged a mana potion before running towards Gofrey.

The two captains continue their fight as the other Anna observes them indifferently, not far from them. The two captains seem unable to see or sense her as if she is protected by a one-way camouflage barrier.

After observing the two captains, Anna nodded silently before commanding the pitch-black Cupid to go in the other direction. They move towards the Glass Fortress direction.

Meanwhile, far from the Everwhite Lake a huge commotion appeared inside the village made of wood. Unlike any city of the Heart Kingdom, this city is made of wood, even for its outer city wall.

Furthermore, each house\'s style is outdated and weak against any strong shockwave. Because of the appearance of mana, people usually prefer to make their houses with stone or brick for sturdiness. Some even apply many complex runes to increase their endurance.

Otherwise, a single clash from a fourth-grade combatant could heavily damage the whole building. Even if the owner gets compensated later, their house will still get destroyed. No one likes seeing their house being destroyed.

Even then, the residents of this city still use wood as their primary material. Furthermore, if someone inspects the building carefully, none of them is enchanted with a rune-like the elven city. Only a few buildings that look important are heavily enchanted.

As for others, it looks like a building made of wood and straw. If it is not for the size of the city, everyone will think it is a backward village in the middle of nowhere.

Unfortunately, this is one of the major cities inside Frostfall County called Everwhite City. It is an ancient city rumored to be the oldest city in the Humane Region.

Now, some commotion is happening inside the city, especially the largest building in the city. This building is the house of the noble Dipo Family. Since the last civil war, the house has been silent without making a single noise.

If it is not for the hundreds of servants working inside these houses, everyone will think this house is haunted or empty. Currently, a young woman hears the report from the armored people inside the main hall.

"How about grandfather?!" asked the young woman.

"I am sorry, My Lady. We lost contact with the Leader. It\'s better if we evacuate as soon as possible." said one of the guardian members.

"Can the Glass Fortress hold it like always?" asked the young woman again.

"I am afraid it will be hard. Based on the report, there are still a few hundreds of Grams in this current wave. With the absence of the Guardian captain and Leader, it is just a matter of time for the Glass Fortress to fall." said one of the Respected Ones.

"Young Mistress, It is better to evacuate as soon as possible." advised one of the Respected Ones in the room.

"T-Then, how about the city? What about the citizens and others?" asked the young woman.

"Don\'t worry about them, Young Mistress. We will get reinforcement from Frostfall city. Now, you just need to evacuate with us." said another Respected Ones.

"I-I…" said the young woman with uncertainty.

"Young Mistress!! This is no time to hesitate." said another Respected Ones.

"A-Alright. Let\'s evacuate now." said the young woman dejectedly.

Despite her young age, she still realized their action was the same as abandoning the citizens and Everwhite City.

As for the reinforcement from the Frostfall, they know it will take at least a few days or less if they are lucky. At that time, the Everwhite city may have already been gone.

The distance between Frostfall City and Everwhite City is not too far. Any high-grade combatant should be able to reach in one day\'s travel time. However, the road is quite harsh, especially at this time of the year.

Not only is it covered with thick snow, but it also often gets a heavy snowstorm along with wild Gram spawned randomly. These factors will delay their travel speed further.

However, the young mistress couldn\'t speak of her opinions either. First, she didn\'t have any better solution. Second, these old Respected Ones always stirred her entire life and decision-making.

She couldn\'t argue or retort against these people because of her special circumstances. Despite being part of the noble Dipo family, she has not inherited their noble blood.

In fact, this young woman is Aulia Dipo, the adopted granddaughter of Leader Patimura. She was adopted by Patimura Dipo during his rare patrol across the Everwhite region.

As an adopted grandchild, her name Dipo is only an empty title without any real authority and power. It is already a blessing no one persecuted her while staying in the Dipo Family house.

Soon, the whole Dipo family evacuated with the Respected Ones and some employees under the silent night. Seeing how fast everyone is moving and preparing, Aulia knows these Respected Ones are already prepared long before she even makes a decision.

Her previous order and decision are only formalities. Yet, she couldn\'t do anything to these treatments at all.

"Alright, let\'s depart now!!" said one of the Respected Ones.

The caravans and guardian envoys depart into the dark night under the heavy snowfall. Seeing them getting farther from the dimly lit Everwhite city in the distance, Aulia could only sigh sadly.

"Don\'t worry, young mistress. Everything will be fine." said one of the maids in the carriage.

As the last member of the Dipo family, she still gets special treatment like the nobility. She gets her own private carriage and maid to accompany her all day.
