From the very beginning, when choosing Hell's Gate Canyon for the decisive battle, the Alliance knew their chances of winning were not great.
After all, the difference in numbers was too large between the two sides.
Even if they won a head-on clash, it would inevitably be an extremely brutal and costly battle for both sides.
Such a result would only benefit a few undying Outer Gods and possibly those South Continent folks secretly watching, holding no significance for the Alliance.
Therefore, from the outset, the Alliance's high command had prepared two strategies.
They would fight to the death with all their might while looking for a chance to end the battle early.
And Leonard Churchill could think of two best victory methods: either "assassinate the king" or deal with those three Outer Gods.
Assassinating King Arthur of Orlan was extremely difficult; almost no one in the Alliance could accomplish it.
Comparatively, the second plan was more feasible.
