A miss is as good as a mile.
Just as the Green Shade Territory's army entered the High Wall, the vanguard from Yusofa, which bordered the Blue Moon Territory, also arrived outside the High Wall.
This army originally belonged to Yusofa, but it was now under the command of Lady Mary, the Lord of Rose Territory.
They had been secretly monitoring everything happening in the Blue Moon Territory and had even bribed a Priest from the Church Court.
So, the moment the Blue Moon Territory was completely cleansed of the corruption, they received the news and mobilized their entire force.
They had only one objective: to stop Catherine from succeeding as the Lord of Blue Moon Territory.
If Catherine became the true Lord, Mary's army would lose its veneer of righteousness. Their invasion would transform from an act of "helping the Jackson Family reclaim Blue Moon Territory" into blatant plunder.
Therefore, Mary would never allow that to happen.
