Chapter 1397 Eren's Monster Army P3

As Fiona and her team prepared to depart, Eren continued to maintain an air of calm authority. He exchanged a knowing glance with Kaal, who assured him that he knew what needed to be done with the battlefield, including disposing of Kev's body to avoid any further investigations.

Addressing Kaal and the other monsters in their native language, Eren emphasized the need for caution and discretion. He warned them of the potential repercussions from both Layos and Edinburgh if they were discovered here. The strategic geographical location needed to be abandoned because it had served its purpose. Overstaying here was foolishness.𝐧𝑂𝗏𝑬𝒍𝚞𝒮𝒷.𝕔𝗈𝑀

Thus, the butcher told his monster subordinates to migrate their tribe from the region immediately.

With the battle concluded and the dust settling after Eren's speech, Baran stepped forward towards Kaal, a sense of camaraderie evident in his eyes. He extended an inviting hand and spoke with a warm tone.

"Kaal, my fellow leader, I invite you and your tribe to join us in the Monster Canyon. We can unite our strengths and resources, creating a formidable force together. My tribe will gladly offer any assistance you and your subordinates may need."

Baran had not done anything too significant in this mission to eradicate Kev's team. This was because he recognized that Eren wanted Kaal to show his progress to him.

Kaal regarded Baran with a mix of surprise and curiosity. The idea of migrating his tribe to the Monster Canyon intrigued him. He had seen the might and unity displayed by Baran's tribe, and he knew that joining forces could be a mutually beneficial arrangement. After a brief moment of contemplation, he nodded, acknowledging Baran's offer.

"This Monster Canyon sure sounds like an interesting place, Baran," Kaal responded, his voice carrying a hint of respect. "I have seen the prowess of your tribe prospering under the liege's command, and I believe such an alliance could indeed lead to greater achievements."

Baran smiled, pleased with Kaal's willingness to consider the idea. The two leaders briefly looked at Eren and exchanged a firm handshake, sealing the promise of cooperation between their tribes.

"As leaders, it is our duty to ensure the safety and prosperity of our people," Baran said with conviction. "Together, we can forge a new path and build an army that thrives in the heart of the Monster Canyon. An army that can serve our liege well. Hahaha."

Kaal agreed wholeheartedly, recognizing the wisdom in Baran's words. As a leader, he understood the responsibility of making decisions that would shape the future of his tribe.

With a newfound alliance formed between their tribes, Baran and Kaal turned to address their subordinates, who were watching with eager eyes. They conveyed the decision to migrate and join forces, and the news was met with a mix of excitement and anticipation.

Eren had refrained from taking direct action against Kev's squad to avoid entangling himself in the web of consequences. The Blood Punisher Force's involvement and the possibility of Anfang Alliance getting drawn into the conflict made it a delicate situation.

Thus, Eren had strategically observed the battle from a distance, allowing his subordinates and allies to take center stage. He skillfully maneuvered behind the scenes, ensuring that his hands remained untainted by the blood of high-profile Rankers from both kingdoms.

As he achieved another of his planned objectives, Eren couldn't help but smile to himself. He knew that his actions had far-reaching consequences, and he took comfort in knowing that he had safeguarded his interests while still achieving his goals.

As Baran and Kaal took charge of the tribe migration, Eren watched with a sense of satisfaction. Leading a monster tribe through such a process was no easy task, involving considerations of hunting grounds, resource management, and the changing of tribe elders. It was a test of both experience and ambition as the older monsters stepped down, and the younger generation eagerly vied for new conquests.

As Eren observed their efforts, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride for the prosperous growth of his monster army. However, with the increasing numbers came a new challenge. Eren realized that relying solely on Echidna's Authority wouldn't be enough to control the vast horde of powerful monsters he had amassed over the years.

In his contemplation, Eren knew that the S-ranked monsters, whom he had encountered during his journey, wouldn't simply bow to him because of his reputation or past accomplishments. He could only count on Echidna's Authority for so much.

Despite the recognition he had gained among the people of Edinburgh while acting as Grimdawn, it held little sway over the Children of Echidna. To truly command their loyalty, Eren needed strength—overwhelming might that could back his authority.

His current C-ranked Expert status wouldn't suffice. Eren understood that the respect and allegiance of the monsters could only be earned through a higher rank. The need for progress weighed heavily on his mind as he intermittently offered guidance to Baran and Kaal during the migration planning.

As he surveyed the gathering of monsters, Eren couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. Time was not on his side. He longed for more years to prepare himself, to strengthen his abilities, and to break through into the coveted Master Rank.

Over the past decade, Eren's focus had been consumed by the demanding Lazarus Project and numerous side tasks, leaving him with precious little time to invest in advancing his ranking journey. Despite this daunting challenge, Eren's unique bloodline and awe-inspiring Sin Series Abilities played a crucial role in his commendable progress within his current rank. It was a testament to his exceptional talents and unwavering dedication that he had managed to make strides even amidst the overwhelming responsibilities of his various projects.

Yet, the reality was that the sands of time continued to slip away.

Though the desire for 30 or at least 20 more years of training gnawed at him, Eren knew he had to adapt to the circumstances before him. The deadline set by the Lazarus Project was unforgiving, and his enemies wouldn't wait for him to catch up.

With resolute determination, Eren accepted the challenges that lay ahead. He understood that getting over the bottleneck of the Expert rank to enter Master rank would be arduous. He had to do something really risky to achieve something like that within less than a year.

As the monster tribe's migration unfolded, Eren's mind was set on achieving the strength and influence necessary to lead his vast army. The quest for power and rank was now his driving force, propelling him towards an uncertain future.
