Chapter 556 Hard to Come By
"Your sister…" Richard didn't know how to tell him that.
Henry was Alicia's brother, after all. If Henry learned that Richard had locked his sister up in a room, he
might end up making a scene.
All of a sudden, Alicia, who was locked up in the room, started screaming, "Help! Help! Let me out!"
Henry was confused when he heard Alicia's screams. "What did you do to Alicia?"
Richard knew that the cat was out of the bag. He could only say candidly, "She didn't want to defect to
Vadesia, so we could only lock her up in a room for now in case she decided to give us trouble."
"What? She didn't want to defect, too?" Henry asked in surprise.
"Yes. Your family is really stubborn. Diatoran is 100% done for, and Vadesia will gain control over
Southlake City when they defeat Diatoran! And yet your sister didn't want to go with our plan at all,"
Richard said.
"You didn't need to say that, Richard. Didn't I already decide to be on the same side as you all? The
Stewarts didn't want to go with it, though. I feel helpless, too," Henry said.
"What are you planning to do now?" Richard asked.
He had to confirm Henry's stance on this. If Henry was still indecisive, the Hudsons would also lock him
up.
They were committing treason, after all. A slight misstep would cost them their lives.
"I do want to defect to Vadesia, but my family disapproves of it. Can I stay here in your home? I can
stay here in Southlake City with you." Henry told Richard what he truly wanted.
"Sure, of course. You can stay here for now. When Vadesia invades the city, we'll become heroes!"
Richard nodded.
Henry and him were on the same side now, anyway.
"Have you heard back from Kenzie, Richard?" Henry asked.
"We've gotten in contact with him and told him about our decision to defect. He has promised me that
the family won't be unharmed when Southlake City falls," Richard said.
"That's great! As long as the Hudson family manages to defect to Vadesia, you'll have a great future
ahead!" Henry exclaimed.
"Of course! Kenzie has also promised me that they'll have a lot of important projects for the Hudson
family to work on. The Hudson family is finally going to be a cut above the rest!"
"Let me out! Help! Let me out of here!" Alicia was shouting again.
"Can I see my sister, Richard? I can talk to her and make her see reason," Henry said.
"It's useless no matter who's talking to her. Let her reflect on herself. I'll have someone deliver food to
her, so don't worry about that," Richard said.

In West Aridlands, Dax Santos, the Champion of West Aridlands, had already been fighting in battle for
more than three hours alongside the troops there.
However, the enemy troops consisted of elite warriors. Their fighter jets fired missile after missile at the
West Aridlands, causing the deaths of more than half of the Diatoranian soldiers there.
"Champion, the enemy troops are firing too aggressively. We won't be able to hold them back if this
goes on! How long do we have until the God of War arrives?" a general asked.
"We've been fighting nonstop for more than three hours. The God of War asked me to stand our ground
for four hours. He'll surely be here on time," Dax said.
"But we're on the verge of collapse in the face of the enemy's attacks!" the general said.
"The God of War will probably arrive soon. We can't fail at this moment. As long as he arrives, we'll
surely succeed in repelling the enemy troops! We must continue to stand our ground even if we all end
up dying!" Dax said determinedly.
"Yes, sir!" The general couldn't very well say anything else when Dax was alight with determination.
…
Caspian, leading an army of 200 thousand soldiers, was already coming at the Filrenian troops from
the back.
"Men, follow me and charge! It's your turn to protect your homes and guard the country now!" Caspian
ordered immediately.
The army of 200 thousand soldiers charged at the Filrenian troops from the back. The enemy had not
expected this to happen and thus had not put up a defense against the Diatoranian army.
The soldiers who had been under Quinton before fought with reckless abandon. When the Filrenians
came back to their senses, several thousand of their people had died.
The Filrenian generals took action in retaliation immediately. They divided their troops into two. One
team would fight against Caspian, while the other would fight against the army in West Aridlands.
At the borders in West Aridlands, the Diatoranian army was confused to see the Filrenian army turn
into a mess.
"Warriors! The Diatoranian God of War has already charged at the enemy troops from the back. If we
charge aggressively now, we'll surely succeed in repelling the enemy troops!" Dax reacted immediately
upon seeing the chaos breaking out amongst the Filrenian troops.
He had not announced the God of War's plan before this moment because he feared the secret would
be leaked.
Now that Caspian had arrived, he no longer needed to keep it a secret.
When the soldiers at West Aridlands heard that Caspian Lynch, the Diatoranian God of War, was
already attacking the enemy troops from the back, everyone was in high spirits.

An army's morale was most important when in battle. If an army was in significantly higher morale than
the enemy, it had basically won half of the war.
Caspian's appearance on the battlefield disrupted Filren's plans. As the Filrenian troops had split into
two, their attacks were no longer as aggressive.
At this moment, the Diatoranian soldiers in West Aridlands were in high spirits. They started to launch
an aggressive attack.
"Soldiers! It's time for you to kill the enemy and give back to your country! Charge forward and kill
them!" Dax shouted in rage.
Hearing Dax's command, the soldiers were now all fired up. They had been suppressed by the
Filrenian troops, and a lot of their allies had been murdered. They had been holding in their rage.
Now, their chance had come!
…
Caspian's troops were similarly in high spirits. They attacked so aggressively the Filrenian troops were
incapable of retaliation.
"What's happening? Who's leading these troops? Who's their general?" The general of the Filrenian
troops was consistently observing the troops that were attacking them from behind. He was confused.
"I think these troops are the armored battalion led by the Diatoranian God of War." An officer in the
enemy troops managed to see what was happening afar through binoculars.
"What? The Diatoranian God of War? It's the armored battalion led by Caspian Lynch!" The general
was so shocked by the words "Diatoranian God of War" that he shuddered fully.
"That's right. Only the armored battalion wears armor of this design. They fight valiantly, too," the officer
replied.
"Are you sure you didn't mistake them for someone else?" The general couldn't believe it. Would the
Diatoranian God of War really lead troops in battle by himself?
"The soldiers in the armored battalion wear silver armor and are all extremely strong. They're also
holding flags that have the two words 'Armored Battalion' on them. They're undoubtedly Caspian
Lynch's most trusted troops!"
The general suddenly had a realization. Upon learning of Caspian's appearance on the battlefield, he
was so scared that he started to tremble.
