The situation in the kingdom changed by the hour. The war against the Demon King's Army had seemed to be gradually trending toward victory for the human alliance, but the dire news that arrived from the Barony of Virgo a month ago threw the war into a deadlock.
The Barony of Virgo had been occupied by the Demon King's Army.
Spica Castle was blockaded, and those who escaped brought the devastating news to the Leo Marquisate.
The elves, who had professed absolute neutrality, sided with the Demon King's Army.
They didn't merely take the Demon King's Army's side; they rode in alongside its monster forces and seized the barony outright. Together with orcs, harpy flocks, and the newly designated crow-like creatures called "Andras," the elves blockaded the Barony of Virgo and declared the territory their own.
Why would the elves do this?
The dwarves were stunned.
