The next morning, Arin's group received an encrypted message from the secret organization's leader. The message was brief and threatening, but its meaning was heavy and alarming.
Arin carefully opened and read it:
"The defeat of the Anti-Hero was only one stage. The real war has not begun. A difficult path still lies ahead. Be prepared."
Lyra asked worriedly,
"So he still controls everything… and the Anti-Hero's defeat was only a ruse?"
Kai clenched his teeth,
"This means we are still in the early stages of the war. Every future move must be precise and calculated."
The Silent Sorceress shook her head,
"The leader of the organization is our ultimate enemy. He watches all our moves and will analyze every mistake. Now we must have complete unity and coordination, not just tactics."
Arin looked at the group and said firmly,
"His message is a warning, not the final threat. We have grown stronger, and this message is an opportunity to prepare for even greater challenges."
The group decided to begin a thorough analysis of the enemy and anticipate his strategies to prevent any possible mistakes and start the next phase of the war fully prepared.
