Chapter 245: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 48
"You're leaving along with Gilbert tonight?" Jericho raised his eyebrow. "Are you sure you are not doing this just to make us pay for what we did during the acting?"
"We are not," Kayn shook his head.
"Trust him, we are doing something really important for the Green Horn City," Gilbert assures.
"But what about the Dream Village? You can't possibly expect me to defend this place all on my own, right?" Jericho expresses his complaint.
"That's your punishment," Kayn chuckled.
"That's what I meant just now!" Jericho cried out.
"I was only following the script," Emmet interjected in hopes of clearing his name.
"Two of your squad members were attacking us quite harshly," Gilbert winked at Miya and Amy.
"I guess so…" Emmet relented.
"There's only less than three days left before the Green Horn City declares war on the Assembly of Freedom. I am not confident that once the enemy shows up on our doorstep I will be able to defend for forty hours or until the reinforcement comes," Jericho informs Kayn of his trouble.
"There's no way they would arrive in the Dream Village the instant Old Mayor George declares war with them," Gilbert felt that Jericho's problem is unfounded. "Rest assured, as long as everything flows smoothly on our side, there might even be no one coming to your doorstep,"
"Are you serious?" Jericho raised his eyebrow in strong doubt.
"Just trust us," Gilbert assures. He looks around before quickly changing the subject, "By the way, do you have any food prepared?"
"I thought you work as kitchen staff?" Jude narrowed his eyes.
"Have you ever tasted a soldier's meal? They are very disgusting and it reminds me of the past when I had no other choice but to eat something akin to dog food," Gilbert slightly shuddered.
"Jadiel and Randy, please take Gilbert to the kitchen and prepare him breakfast and also make sure to pack up some snacks that they can eat along their mission," Jericho motioned his hand.
Jadiel and Randy along with Gilbert quickly left the meeting room.

Left with no other choice, Emmet and his third squad of Green Horn Knights left.
But before leaving, they tried to persuade Lilith to also leave with them, but Kayn interrupted by saying that she can stay.
"So, what are you exactly doing in their camp right now?" Jericho finally asked the question he has been dying to know.
"This," Kayn waves his hand to take out a piece of Undead Apple from his Storage Ring.
Jericho, Jude, and Charles were left questioning themselves about what that item was.
Contrary to them though, Lilith knows.
"That…" Lilith immediately recognizes the item that Kayn is holding. "Wesley's infamous Undead Apple,"
"Undead Apple?"
Jericho, Jude, and Charles finally realized.
"Don't tell me you're planning on charming everyone from the Assembly of Freedom?" Jericho was in disbelief.
"Wait, first, let me ask you," Jude interjected. "That won't backfire on us, right?"
"It won't," Kayn assures.
"If it is okay to ask, where did you get that?" Lilith can't help asking.
"I stole one of Wesley's Storage Ring which contains plenty of Undead Apple," Kayn used the same lie once again.
"Then wouldn't that make Wesley suspicious that someone else might pull the same trick that he's trying to do?" Jericho assumes.
"If he's suspicious, then that only means he knows what danger that would bring to the Assembly of Freedom," Jude realized.
"Exactly!" Kayn nodded. He continued lying. "He would be very cautious about it, but because he can't get close to any kitchen, he won't be able to know what I am doing,"
"How certain are you?" Jericho clasped both of his hands together.
"We'll see about that once we get there," Kayn really can't guarantee anything. More importantly, he was only lying.
Though the truth is, he only has a few Undead Apples left after cooking four times. To be exact, he has twenty left which he got ever since he copied Wesley's Gift. He'll only be getting once a day, so his supply truly can't keep up with the demand.
That's why he has to go to the base of the Assembly of Freedom and secretly occupy their main kitchen as soon as possible in order for him to effectively make use of each of the remaining Undead Apples he possesses.
The bigger the meal he is creating, the more people would be eating it. Albeit the duration of the Undead Apple would also get affected because its dosage will be minimized, at the very least he has influenced a much wider masses.
Even if in the end the duration of his charm will only last for an hour, he is confident that he can lay waste to the entire Assembly of Freedom within that sixty minutes.
"We can't stay long as they might start suspecting why we are missing," Kayn changed the topic. "Also, can you lend me a few monster carcasses? In that way, we can make it more believable that we went out hunting,"
"Here," Charles toss one of his Storage Rings. "I got plenty inside from my recent hunting outside the Dream Village,"
"Thank you," Kayn appreciated it.
It didn't take long for Gilbert to return from the kitchen along with Jadiel and Randy.
"Are we leaving?" Gilbert asked.
"Yes,"
"Thanks for the food everyone. We'll be going out first," Gilbert bid farewell.
Kayn also bid farewell.
After saying their goodbyes, Kayn and Gilbert used the same tunnel they went through to get out of the Dream Village undetected.
They then switched clothes before entering the forest once again.
It was exactly when everyone was preparing to cook lunch that Kayn and Gilbert finally returned back to the camp of Seven's company.
Alonzo and the rest of the rest kitchen staff were already standing and waiting for the clock to hit eleven before beginning to cook the meal for lunch.
"Let's begin,"
