That night, Xin dedicated his time to reading, immersed in his books and preparing for the upcoming events. He understood the need to strengthen the girls power before the imminent war game, which, following the canon, would become the castle game. Satisfied with his studies, he went to sleep peacefully, anticipating what was to come.
The next day, Xin woke up with Hestia completely out of control, hovering over him. It seemed she had recovered from the previous condition.
"Xin. Why did you do that? The girls are good and excelent but they still need time to their full potential." Hestia hook Xin's neck and shook him while crying.
"Hm? Good morning,Hestia..." He murmured sleepily, as if the situation were not an urgent matter.
"Good morning. I don't know what you thinking, i heard you are a War Freak back in heaven but i never expect that all gossip about you is true." She helpless said,
"Don't worry; we would have had this fight anyway. I just advanced a few things to put on a show at the banquet..." Xin said, yawning, as if dealing with something routine.
"Anyway, i know you wont let the girls fall in danger but still, look at them." Hestia said, pointing to nervous Asia, who had already recovered physically but was still trying to deny the reality. Eriri was equally in a state of depression, and Irina maintained a downcast look, aware of the gravity of the situation.
"Hey, let's have breakfast first, then we'll discuss everything we're going to face, how about that?" Xin suggested, making Hestia loosen her grip, watching him cross his arms.
"I hope you have a solution because I don't see how we're going to fight against those two families. They're levels four and three. How are we going to win?" She sadly said.
Xin ignored her and headed to the kitchen. He was the only one to boil water with the firebolt and prepare the first meal, as everyone else seemed quite dejected.
While eating, he couldn't help but look at the other family members and comment. "How long are you going to stay like this? You need to feed your stomachs because we'll need your strength in the next few minutes."
Xin said calmly, interrupting the melancholy that hung over the table.
"Hm? What do you mean?" Eriri asked, confused.
Xin just looked at her for a brief moment before continuing. "We have a group of adventurers preparing to blow this place up when we leave through that door, so you better get ready..." His statement cast a shadow of shock over them.
"WHAT???" Hestia was the first to react, jumping in alarm.
"THEY'RE GOING TO ATTACK US!?" Asia asked, his face expressing alarm.
"I thinks we're screwed..." Eriri murmured, disheartened.
"HEE..."
"And how do you know this?" Hestia couldn't help but look at Xin, demanding explanations.
"I have a spell that can detect living beings. I can see at least 40 adventurers positioned on the roofs, all facing our direction. The walls don't limit this magic of mine..." Xin explained, and his revelation left everyone surprised, except Xenovia and Utaha.
The small being's gaze already indicated that he might know more than he was letting on.
"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?" Eriri asked, alarmed.
