Love At The Wrong Table

“Absolutely!”

Yasmine’s mind was sharp. She immediately

analyzed the situation. “Dark Night Island has over

50 tribes, with a remaining population of about

14,250. Among them, there are 1,314 warriors. Their

combined military strength far exceeds our 3,000

soldiers and 520 warriors!”

She continued, “The worst part is that our military

forces on the island are too scattered, making it

impossible to consolidate our power and giving us

no battlefield advantage! We need to request

reinforcement from outside the island. If we can

delay their full assembly and the timing of their

assault, we can hold out until support arrives!” The

rest behind her, including Agargar, found her

proposal wise.

Unexpectedly, Freya let out a cold laugh. “Are you

requesting reinforcements from outside the island?

Who granted you the permission to do that?”

“Freya, please don’t act recklessly at this point!”

Yasmine, who knew Freya well, understood what

was at stake.

Over the years, she had skillfully managed Dark

Night Island, her most valuable asset within the

Holy Trinity and the foundation of her reputation.

The prospect of a rebellion on the island requiring

external assistance would severely damage her

standing. If news spread that she was unable to

suppress the rebellion and had to seek help, her

reputation and pride would suffer, putting her

position at risk. It was even uncertain whether the

Holy Trinity would continue to support her in the

future.

“Address me as Your Majesty!” she shouted, clearly

displeased with how Yasmine referred to her. “I am

the queen of this island. No one dares defy me!

Without my permission, no one would leave this place. That’s final!”

The senior members of the Airspace Group on the tower grew anxious as they saw her refusing to

listen to reason. Yet, none of them dared speak a

word in front of her. Only after leaving her chamber

did they turn to Yasmine with their concerns and

advice.

Agargar spoke rationally, “Ms. Morgan, we can’t let

the queen act recklessly. If the rebels grow any

stronger, our base will eventually fall! Right now, the

best course of action is to destroy the ships in the

dock–this way, the rebels will have no chance of

escaping!”

Yasmine fully grasped his point, but knowing the

queen would never entertain the idea of requesting

reinforcements, she couldn’t agree to destroy the

dock. Anyone who attempted such an action

without permission would face execution.

Additionally, no one on Dark Night Island had the

authority to dismantle the dock without the queen’s

explicit order.

The rebels, especially with the Saintess now siding

“Don’t worry, I will personally request

reinforcements from the Holy Trinity headquarters.

Even if it means Her Majesty will punish me, we

cannot allow Dark Night Island to be wiped out,”

Yasmine declared resolutely.

Agargar nodded in agreement. “The Warlord has

always aimed to create the world’s top assassin, a

key element of the Holy Trinity’s core plans. Without

this assassin, it will be nearly impossible to incite

the chaos needed to launch wars that could

reshape the global order. The Warlord will never

allow this plan to fail.”

More people expressed their support for Yasmine

one by one. Their loyalty lay with the Holy Trinity,

not the queen or the Saintess. The crucial point was

that they didn’t want to face death!

“Alright, I’ll send out a discreet distress signal

immediately. However, the reinforcements will be

delayed since we don’t have the Queen’s official

authorization. They won’t reach Dark Night Island

for at least three days. Therefore, we must hold our

ground for those three days and prevent the rebels

from breaching our base!”
