“Halt.” Dressed in a robe, the Soul Forger lowered his arm. His gaze was tainted with viciousness. “Only attack after the Savior leaves.”
Irvine was annoyed by his superstitious logic. “We’re on a battlefield now. In your own Cascadian words, the battlefield is ever–changing. There shouldn’t be any delayed timings or opportunities.”
“I agree, colonel, but fortune is on their side now. If we attack forcefully, things might go wrong.”
The Soul Forger turned around. There was a deep scar visible between his eyebrows. He had an unpleasant–looking face, with protruding cheekbones and gloomy eyes.
It was said that one’s appearance could reflect one’s personality. This was particularly evident in his case.
Yet, Irvine loved to work with people who looked like the Soul Forger. According to his observations, each
of them had their own objectives. They wouldn’t mind being his pawns if they could gain benefits.
“So, what do we do now?” Previously, Irvine didn’t believe in these. It was the fortune tellers that had
made him so cautious.
Furthermore, the bizarre Cascadian terrain was a problem. One could never know where Cascadian soldiers would suddenly appear.
There were also mountain roads where one would easily get lost trying to navigate their way. Sometimes,
even compasses would malfunction there.
If it weren’t for the Cascadians who led the way, it would be impossible for the Foplyans to enter the village. After all, the Cascadians knew the most about their nation’s terrains and traditions,
Hence, Irvine favored these guides. Without the Soul Forger, they wouldn’t have been able to get through
the pass.
Those fortune tellers died with remaining grievances. Irvine wanted to take them in, but not a single one
of them would betray their own country.
The Soul Forger before him was an exception. Thanks to him, all of the fortune tellers were eliminated in
one night.
“Gather some young boys and girls too.” The Soul Forger’s voice was deep and intimidating. “Go and rest. There is no need to worry. Within a hundred–mile radius, I am the only one left in my sect.
“Even with the arrival of the savior, those who are untreatable will still perish. Furthermore, we have cut. off the Cascadians‘ food supply. We still have time to spare.”
Irvine still had his concerns. “I’m just afraid that their reinforcements will arrive in time.”
“If you don’t trust my formations, feel free to do whatever you wish. The Soul Forger waved him aside, clearly unhappy-
He desperately needed to cultivate, as it would be easier for ascension during times of mayhem.

Irvine smiled. “How could I not believe your words? Your formations are so powerful that even the mightiest beast can’t escape them.”
He wouldn’t have believed that such formations existed if he hadn’t witnessed it with his own eyes.
By just placing a few rocks, sticks, and herbs, the Soul Forger was able to make people completely lose their way. He even managed to manipulate the behaviors of certain animals.
What a shock! There were just too many gifted people in Cascadia.
Irvine had hoarded a collection of books about Arcane Ways. He had ordered people to send them back to Foplya. These books covered various topics–the Eight Trigrams, Sin and Grace, divinations, and constellations.
He didn’t want to offend the Soul Forger before him. The Soul Forger was crucial in helping to refine hist
Arcane Ways.
The Foplyan troop’s skills weren’t up to par with those who were truly capable. Hence, they treated them
with utmost respect.
“I’ll go and make adjustments. Colonel, just remember not to launch attacks in the Savior’s presence.” The Soul Forger had his doubts as well. How
