The instant reversal of this battle situation did not bring nothing but benefits.
Relying on the berserk firepower of the [Great Light Manifestation] and the Black Giants' suicidal charge—an absolute "first-meeting kill"—Benjamin had forcibly torn open a precious breach in this stalemated front, making his Wizard Legion the vanguard that had broken through the Giant Spirit Realm's final line of defense first.
It should have been an achievement worth cheering for, yet it also brought an unexpected problem—the focus of the regional battlefield had shifted.
Originally, the Level 6 Wizard "Starbreaker" Balthazar, who oversaw this vast war zone, had concentrated most of his attention on another main force legion guarded by more than a dozen Level 5 Wizards.
That legion's offensive was fierce, drawing most of the Giant Spirit Realm's defensive forces toward it.

However, the sudden rise of Benjamin's "flanking force" had completely disrupted the established rhythm.
By the time Balthazar noticed that the defensive line here had been torn open, the opportunity on the battlefield had already been fleeting.
In that brief delay, the endless reinforcements within the Giant Spirit Realm, swarming like a hive, had already surged forward again.
