My Substitute CEO Bride

Back in Drakonia, just as everyone was about to start the strategy meeting, a phone call suddenly came in.

Kaden answered, "Hello? What's going on? What? Right now? I understand..."

Kaden ended the call, and everyone anxiously looked at him, noticing a flicker of anger on his face. The call had probably brought bad news with it. Since this line was exclusively for the capital's use, the fact that the call reached them meant that... Kaden said, "Everyone, bad news. The northern border is about to collapse."

"What?!"

Panic swept through the crowd. Nash then realized why the masked man had revealed his identity so quickly. It was to attract his attention. It was such a minor figure, yet he had managed to toy with him. "The situation is urgent. We now need to-"

"I'll go." Nash stepped forward, his eyes filled with determination as a powerful aura emanated from him.

"We should go too," Benedict suggested.

Nash interjected, "No. Please protect the wardens, General Copper and Sir Landon."

"But can you really manage on your own?" Benedict asked worriedly.

"Yeah, Nash. Even I think it isn't the time to show off now," Ryan chimed in.

Nash shook his head resolutely. "No, you absolutely can't leave. We need strength like yours to protect everyone here. If the invasion is also a trap, you need to be here to respond. I'm counting on you both!" Hearing Nash's words, the two stopped trying to persuade him and just exchanged determined looks with him.

Then, Nash gestured a sign of

respect and said to Kaden and Elias, "A true man is born to protect his country. Elders, if anything happens to me, please..."

"Nash, we believe in you," Elias said simply with red eyes as he gently helped Nash up.

"That's right, kid!" Kaden added, giving Nash a firm pat on the shoulder. "Don't talk like that. We know you can do it."

Nash looked at the two elders who

trusted him, gritted his teeth, and nodded heavily. He then turned to his father Philix did not say anything, but his silver hair and the gleam in his eyes spoke volumes. Nash's lips curled into a slight smile.

"Alright, I'll be off, then."

Without further delay, Nash rushed to the north battlefield.

In the North Territory, a horde of monsters swarmed the Vortexnoveldrama

it. Clint's spatial magic was ineffective against it.

"This is really troublesome," he muttered. His true energy was nearly depleted, yet the Vortex Demon God seemed to still be at the top of his game. "Mr. Melton, perhaps you should retreat," Mosley suggested.

"How can I do that? If I run, who will hold this guy off?"

"I understand, but your true energy is almost exhausted," Mosley pointed out bluntly. "If you continue, you might end up sacrificing yourself here." "Tsk, whatever. If I die, I die."
