Indeed.
The external factor that would affect the battle would be Zarain.
As a matter of fact, Zarain might be the decisive factor.
It made Levi wary, and it made the Lab of Gods wary.
Mr. X had been fearful of revealing his true power because he was afraid of Erudia's Esoteric Guild and Ecclesiastic Order, but it was also because he was wary of Zarain.
After the negotiation, Zarain would not help Erudia and would not form an alliance with Erudia.
However, Zarain was undoubtedly an enemy of the Lab of Gods.
If the Lab of Gods wanted to gain control over the whole world, Zarain would be its target as well.
Therefore, the Lab of Gods was afraid of Zarain.
Mr. X, in particular, knew that the start of the war meant the revealing of his trump card; Zarain would know all about his weak point.
In that case, they would be an easy target for Zarain.
Nevertheless, before the full-on attack, Mr. X had gone to Sacroria to ask the question that was on his mind.
Sacroria then reassured him that they would be the ones to deal with the problem if Zarain were to intervene.
In other words, Sacroria would be joining the battle by defending against Zarain’s sneak attacks.
It was only then Mr. X became at ease.
Subsequently, he used his everything to begin fighting against his
opponents.
However, Zarain's people had been keeping a close eye on the situation.
Once they realize that Diviniteria was crushing its opponents, Zarain's major figures were tempted to make a move.
Black Hawk and a few others said, “They're now embroiled in a chaotic fight. It's our best time to make a move. I'm afraid we won't be able to wait until both parties are worn down. Diviniteria is far too strong. If we don't join the battle now, World Alliance is going to be defeated. By then, we won’t gain an upper hand in the situation.”
“That's right. World Alliance's main forces are still around. Even if they've suffered a lot, at the very least, they've done a certain amount of damage to Diviniteria. This is really the perfect time to enter the battle!” they analyzed.
