"The king of the Dark Swamp has recently broken through to Dominator. Our Red Forest is the closest to them; I reckon they want to make an example of us," Elizabeth said, sipping her tea.

This time, their king has advanced to Dominator, so they will surely make a significant move. The skirmishes of late were merely probing our defenses, and that's why I've gathered you all here—to discuss countermeasures."
"Mushroom King, I think we need to strike first and catch them off guard," Squirrel Yom suggested.
The Poker Gentleman chimed in, "Yom, that's precisely what the Mushroom King intends. However, we need to consider how to deal with their king."

Herag listened quietly from the sidelines as the demons discussed strategies without hiding anything from him.
