Chapter 122: 122 – What Are These Eight Soldiers?

A day later in Beastled.

"Sir, they seem to have moved their troops to the border. They are insisting on wanting to negotiate with us." A man with big wolf ears knelt in front of the boy in front of him.

He was a boy of approximately 16 years of age. The fox ears on his head and the big tail dangling behind him showed that he was a beastmen.

This was the new king of Beastled.

"Fuck, what are they want?" The boy was not very fond of doing this type of negotiation, he expected something else. Does he want Southlein would decide to attack his country with all his strength?

If something like that happened they would be in for a big surprise.

"They want us to withdraw, then they will send a messenger to speak with you, that's what they want."

"Do they want to talk? Isn't that weird? If they just wanted to talk, they wouldn't have sent soldiers to the border."

"Sorry sir, but this is a normal thing to do."

"What?"

"Usually this is how things work. No country would stand still if another country's army approached the border."

"I understand." The man in front of him could see that the boy was still very naive. Although he managed to usurp the throne, he was very innocent and didn't know how to command someone.

'An army would have no power under his command, and the country will go off the rails if he stays in power.' The man with wolf ears thought as he looked at the boy in front of him.

That young boy would end the country he and the old King had created.

"So I would like you to accept this." The man with the wolf ears said as he bowed further.

"Accept talking to them? But why? Is afraid?" the naive boy asked as he smiled. For the boy, a man much older than him scared was a lot of fun.

"It's not that, it's just that..."

"Hm?"

"I don't think it's a good idea to do this right now. The population is calm at the moment, and we are also stable, there would be no reason to start a war."

"I understand."

"We have no reason to declare war. Humans are not hostile towards our people, much less hostile towards our country."

"And just for that, can't we start a war?" The boy smiled mischievously. Seeing this, the man realized that that boy didn't care about any of this, he just wanted a war to break out.

The human countries hadn't attacked, the human countries weren't prejudiced against them, and they let beastmens enter their countries with ease. Humans and beastmen were living in perfect harmony at the moment.

But did this boy want to end it all? The man couldn't find a reason behind this... Was it just for fun?

"Lord, I ask you to rethink what you are doing. I want you to think about how happy our people are right now after we've suffered for so many years."

"I'm a beastmen too, I know we've been through a lot."

"Then you should also know that because of humans we were able to prevent the destruction of our country."

"I know that too."

"We receive a lot of support from them, our people are treated with affection by them, we do business with them. Our countries are practically friends who live in harmony, and-"

"Okay, are you finished?" The boy seemed indifferent about it. Seeing this, the middle-aged man with wolf ears closed his eyes and sighed as he responded with just a nod and left the room.

After the man left, the boy turned to the guards beside him.

Guards who wore full body armor that hid their true faces. Not even the high-ranking people inside the castle knew exactly what those guys who wore armor looked like.

The only thing they knew was that these people were strong enough to destroy an army in silence.

"Go after that man and just rip his head off. After that, go to the border and deny the negotiation, after that kill everyone who is there."

"Everyone?"

"Yes, everyone from the enemy army. Whoever refuses to accept will also be killed, it won't make much difference. If you think you aren't strong enough, take a bunch of monsters with you."

"Yes sir." All guards responded at the same time. In total eight guards wearing full body armor. Even though that armor appeared to be heavy, they didn't seem to have difficulty moving.

After leaving the room, a few meters away the man with wolf ears had his head cut off with just one movement.

A few hours later at the border between Beastled and Southlein.

At the border on the Southlein side, a considerable number of soldiers were lined up. All wore shiny silver armor while not moving at all.

Just behind, there were also soldiers wearing lighter armor mounted on horses. Some held spears, others held swords, and they weren't just people with guns.

In the back, have men were wearing black robes.

They were wizards.

If Beastled's soldiers could calculate exactly how many men were there, they would probably have more than 1000 soldiers. But Beastled had only 500 soldiers on their side.

All soldiers had the ears and tails of different animals. They wore older and more worn armor, not like the armor of soldiers from Southlein.

Seeing this, they were losing hope that they could win if their King gave the order for them to attack. Some even thought of antagonizing the king and running away, but of course, it wouldn't work.

In addition to the soldiers, both sides had set up camp.

A big hut made of cloth where each commander was. The two commanders were currently waiting for answers.

Beastled's commander was waiting for orders from the King, and Southlein's commander was waiting for the King of Beastled's response to his proposal, so there was a bit of a tense atmosphere on both sides.

"Commander, there's a group of men approaching." In the Beastled commander's tent, a tall man with bear ears atop his head came running while sweating.

"A group, were you able to identify who they are?"

"They are the King's guards." The man said with a slightly disturbing look.

"The King's guards? What are they doing here?"

But before the bear-eared man could respond, a tall man about two meters feet tall wearing armor that covered his entire body entered the tent.

"I'm here under orders from the King, just leave everything to us." Saying just that, the man in armor turned and headed toward the cabin's exit.

"Wait, what do you mean?" As much as the commander tried to draw attention, the man did not respond and left the tent. When he left, he found seven more men wearing the same armor as he.

Seeing this, the Beastled soldiers began to look suspiciously at the men, they all knew who they were so everyone was scared. What were they doing here? Why did the king send them here?

Everyone was in doubt.

"Stand back, the massacre will begin." Saying this, the man who commanded the group of 7 men, pulled his big sword from his back and then started walking.

Beastled's soldiers opened the way as they walked, letting them pass and directly meet Southlein's soldiers who weren't far from here.

The soldiers of Southlein looked at those tall men confused, what did they want to do?

This only lasted for a few seconds.

Soon after, the eight men stood side by side, forming a line.

After that, they all raised their swords. Without saying anything, a great deal of magic began to circulate, making the Beastled soldiers who were more sensitive to magic begin to shiver.

And after approximately ten seconds, small black spheres appeared on the tip of the 8 soldiers' swords. But the small sphere was increasing in size with time.

When they realized the sphere of all soldiers was already the size of a human's head.

Southlein's soldiers managed to sense that they were in danger, but they couldn't stop them at the moment, so they would have to protect themselves.

From the midst of Southlein's soldiers, a man's scream could be heard, and then from the back, a great deal of magic began to pour into the air.

After that, a great magical barrier was created to protect all of Southlein's soldiers.

They would not be able to attack, but they would be able to defend themselves.

Or so they thought.

With a sound that sounded like a jet passing over the place, the black spheres flew upward at a tremendous speed that human eyes could not see.

But the beastmen were able to partially see what happened.

After approaching the barrier that protected Southlein's soldiers, the spheres merged into one, creating an even larger sphere that could be compared to a wheel on a truck.

After that, the sphere descended slowly as it approached the barrier that protected Southlein's soldiers.
