Chapter 438: Dreaming the Impossible Dream(4)

The restoration of Don Quixote, the Spearman.

The knights who roamed the vast expanse of the sea with a single spear were freed from demonic control and served their rightful masters.

Don Quixote La Mancha Tudor. He is the heir to the former head of the family, Cervantes, and the true owner of the Don Quixote family. The Lion King.

The exiled young lion returned to the family as an adult and avenged his father's enmity by slaying his evil uncle.

In normal times, this would have turned the entire empire upside down, but in these times, issues of this magnitude are rarely publicized.

It was a time of civil war, with thousands and tens of thousands of people dying every day.

However, the normalization of the Don Quixote family was a great blessing for the Night Walkers. T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

"The supply routes are finally open again."

Dolores said cheerfully.

The supply lines that the demons had cut had been reopened.

Food and water were finally flowing back into Fort Tochka.

The ever-increasing number of refugees could have caused great chaos.

"...."

Vikir stared at the view of Tochka from the conference room window.

High, thick walls.

A plateau where oxygen is scarce.

A rocky plateau surrounded by sheer cliffs.

It is definitely a tall and lonely fortress with iron walls.

"The only problem is that we don't have enough drinking water. It would be nice to be able to get our own, at least there's a section over one of the mountains where I suspect there's a water source."

Dolores looked at the map and muttered wistfully.

But Vikir's demeanor was unperturbed.

"The water problem will be solved soon enough."

"...?"

Dolores and the others looked puzzled, but Vikir didn't say anything more.

At that moment, Tudor, at one end of the table, spoke up.

"We now have a complete picture of the power situation in the Don Quixote family."

Tudor, the new head of the Don Quixote family, had decided to cooperate fully with the Night Walkers.

It was a natural progression.

"We've completely rooted out the demons, and reinstated all those who have been purged or cast out."

"How many of them can fight?"

Vikir asked, and Tudor didn't hesitate to reveal all the classified documents.

"Surprisingly, it's not too bad, about sixty percent of them are intact, but most of them are in the fleet. The cavalry took too much damage this time...."

As Tudor spoke, he glanced at the people around him.

Camus was sitting there with her arms crossed.

"Well. Are you saying that I'm to blame for the destruction of your family's cavalry?"

"Oh, no. It's not like that. The reason the Invincible Cavalry suffered so much damage was because they were brainwashed by demons and kept running in circles around the civil war zone. Who else could I blame but my incompetence and the wicked demons themselves?"

Tudor smirked.

But it would not be a laughing matter.

Don Quixote's pride of Invincible Cavalry had been nearly wiped out.

Even if he avenged his father's enemies and skinned the demon to make the tassels that hang down the blades of his spears, it would not be enough.

Vikir gazed at the strap of Cimeries's leash hanging from the base of Tudor spear Gungnir and spoke.

"It will make the knights around you braver. Carry it with you at all times."

"...Thank you."

Nodding toward Vikir, Tudor continued.

"Still, Don Quixote's Invincible Armada has remained largely unscathed and unharmed. It must be that the sea level has dropped significantly, preventing the fleet from reaching the coast, which hasn't been very helpful in the civil war."

Vikir's eyes sharpened at Tudor's words.

3. An alliance between the Quovadis and Bourgeois.

4. Leviathan and Usher form an alliance.

5. Don Quixote's declaration of neutrality and sealing of the gates.

"...um. Other than that, the only thing I can think of is that the Quovadis declared a crusade against the Leviathan because of the Red Death. You know that Don Quixote declares neutrality and stays out of the civil war because Lord Tudor himself said so."

The Quovadis declared a crusade against the Leviathan in the aftermath of the Red Death long ago.

By their very nature, large group movements are slow to get started, but once they do, they pick up tremendous speed.

Don Quixote decided to close the family for a time to repair the damage done by the civil war and due to various procedures for changing the head of the family.

Of course, it's only a nominal blockade, and since Tudor became the head of the family, it was natural for the Don Quixote family to secretly support Night Walkers.

Camus set her chin and looked at Vikir.

"We've joined forces, haven't we? Looks like mom's decided to go all in and back the second prince. The one we don't know where he is, or if he even exists in the first place."

"Perhaps it's more about keeping the First Prince in check than actually following the Second, since we Quovadis are in the same position."

Dolores spoke up, looking at Vikir across from Camus.

Their gazes met in the air, and Sinclair reached behind Vikir's back, over his shoulder, and pointed to the map.

"Our Bourgeois are still looking for the Second Prince, and the rumors of imperial enrollment in the Academy are our best lead at the moment."

Civil war is all about cause.

The demons rally under a single goal, while the humans are pitted against each other under many banners.

Vikir thought of the rumored Second Prince.

Before his regression, the second prince had ultimately disappeared into thin air.

A mysterious figure whose existence was never really known.

'If he really is alive somewhere, maybe he could have united humanity sooner.'

Vikir's mind wandered this far, and he lifted his head to look at CindyWendy.

"Of the Seven Families of the Empire, which one is the knowledgeable in information?"

"...Hmm. That's right, it's God Killer. The Usher Family, of course, since they have the most people who specialize in assassination and infiltration."

Just as CindyWendy was finishing her answer, the door to the conference room opened as if by appointment.

Bianca, looking furious, addressed everyone.

"The members of the God Killer Sniper Squad have been unbrainwashed, and I've heard all about what's going on within the Family."

At the same time, Vikir's eyes sank deeply.

The Usher had not yet been freed from their demonic possession and were one of the key players in this civil war.

Now that the Don Quixote family has been restored, there is no family more threatening than Leviathan and Usher.

And it is Usher Poe Madeline who currently leads them.

The presumed third of the Ten Corpses.

Drac-

The first to rise from his seat upon hearing Bianca's words was none other than Tudor.

It was Bianca who saved Tudor at the moment of Don Quixote's downfall.

And now Tudor, Vikir, and all the other friends were reaching out to Bianca.

"Come with us. Perhaps your family can be saved."

"...."

Light returned to Bianca's eyes, which had been black and dead.

At the same time, her cheeks were turning red.

"We must hurry. We must drive on before news of Don Quixote reaches them."

At Vikir's words, the eyes of all the Night Walkers burned with determination.

"Pushishishi- So we have our second objective now?"

"This will reduce our debt."

Sade and Orca followed Vikir to their feet.

The second demon hunt was about to begin.

This was extremely unusual for Vikir's hunting patterns, as he usually left a long gap between hunts.
