Madness and mayhem intensified.
The battlefield was already spiraling into chaos, and Rodrick's secret orders to some key Edinburgh Rankers only worsened the situation.
These high-ranking Rankers were leading their teams and units, so when they were pulled away and asked to return to Edinburgh's army base, it left their teams without leaders.
Other Edinburgh Rankers, who hadn't been informed of these orders, suddenly found themselves under pressure from the Layos Rankers. With the loss of their leaders, the Edinburgh Rankers couldn't coordinate effectively, and they too began to retreat.
While the Edinburgh Rankers were struggling with chaos and a lack of leadership, the Layos Rankers were highly motivated. Eren and his allies, abandoned by the Edinburgh Rankers, now faced their enemies from Layos.
"Hahaha! Look at these cowards!" One elf Ranker from Layos laughed hysterically as he observed the disarray in the enemy ranks.
