Chapter 624 The Final Battle

"So, when did you two... fall for each other?" Marin asked in confusion, as she bit her pink lips. She had never expected Isis and Rocky to marry so soon. It hurt that she was kept in the dark, but the fact that she and her cousin fell in love with the same man made it even more painful.

"We..." Not knowing how to react to Marin's flustered face, Isis turned to Rocky hoping for an answer.

"Never mind. Don't tell me. Congratulations! I wish you... a happy life... together," Marin awkwardly congratulated before shaking her head. She began to sob as she turned away and left.

"Marin..." Isis called out to her. She knew something was off.

"Go. She needs you, Isis," Rocky told her.

Isis immediately chased after Marin.

"Now, we must prepare for the upcoming battle against the Timber Deity Empire." Rocky narrowed his eyes. No more regrets. No more wasted time. More focus and attention on the battle plan. Once they were married, Lance hoped to appoint Rocky as the new leader of the Crimson Dragon Army against the Timber Deity Empire. Rocky was fully aware of Alyssa's mighty power along with her powerful Timber Deity Empire soldiers. She wouldn't be easy to defeat. Although he had managed to lead a few strategies against her, he had yet to confront her face-to-face. Alyssa had placed the Crimson Dragon Army in extreme danger multiple times in the past. This further proved her extraordinary intellect and might on the battlefield. Thus, Rocky and the Crimson Dragon Army needed to prepare thoroughly if they wanted any chance of defeating her.

After Isis caught up with Marin, she found her sobbing like a hurt child. Immediately, Marin threw herself into her cousin's arms and sobbed harder.

"Marin, what's wrong?" Isis asked, worried and confused. She had not seen her cousin cry like that in so long. Marin's normal reaction to hearing her cousin was getting married wo

le and would never hurt her, she didn't want a husband who was only forced to be with her. It was a life she didn't want for either of them.

After Lance announced the wedding, the matter caught on in the whole Evian City. Rocky used to be an unfamiliar name to the city's citizens. Now, his name was known by all thanks to him saving the Evian City and because of that, he gained lots of support. Naturally, this marriage was the one that people would be happy with.

When news of the marriage broke out, Alyssa was already returning with her troops to the camp located along the Timber Deity Empire's border from the Deity Unicorn Valley. She was already planning her next attack on the Crimson Dragon Army.

"Are you sure about this, Alyssa?" Woods confirmed with her regarding their battle strategy in the commander's tent.

"We could've achieved our goal by now if we successfully took over the Evian City. Our carelessness caused us to lose more than twenty thousand soldiers. And in a short period of time, we can't gather more soldiers. Don't worry. I have a plan. Consider this our final battle against the Crimson Dragon Army. More specifically, this will be the final battle... forever," Alyssa uttered with narrowed eyes and a face full of determination.
