Chapter 946: More Problems

While Baron Cain was busy imagining his fairytale empire, far away in an entirely different continent, some other people were getting overly excited too.

.

--Hable Coastal City, Continent of Lambe--

.

The city was extremely silent, as several residents had locked themselves in their homes in fear of being seen.

Businesses were closed and the entire city looked like it had been deserted for years now.

Even those who arrived by ship on the docks of this coastal city were told to stay on their ships for an entire day before leaving.

Everyone shivered while taking a peek through the small openings in their windows.

"Oh my God!

How long are they going to stay here?

If we don't harvest the goods from the farms close to the forest, then those wild animals will definitely eat them."

"Dammit!

Why can't these people just leave us alone?

Why are they here?

What do they want?"

"I heard that they're just passing by."

"Really?!!"

"Shh!

What are you yelling for?

Keep your voice down.

I don't want to die because of you."

"Sorry..."

"_"

The air was tense and the people were gloomy.

But why did this massive city shudder in fear?

Well, that was because of the announcement that had been made 5 days ago.

One should know that their current continent, the continent of Lambe, was now governed by the temple of Adonis.

That's right!

This temple had successfully conquered all 4 empires within the Lambe continent.

They had killed all their rulers and forced the royals to be slaves.

So Adonis the 3rd now ruled over the entire continent with his beliefs.

.

The Temple's beliefs were just ridiculous.

Women and children were sacrificed and roped duly to the Adonis.

For example, he believed that women that couldn't bear sons for their husbands were selfish and guilty.

So by law, these women had been seized and locked up in a training home which they called a 'correcting home.'

There, many temple deacons, vicar's, ministers and knights will take turns with these women until they were able to bear a son.

If it was a daughter, they would continue to stay there for their disobedience.

And if it were a son, then they could go back to their husbands.

As for the daughters that were born during that time, they will belong to the temple of Adonis and do their own share part for the temples' greater good.

Again, anyone woman who gave birth to a child with any disorders would be put to death.

And all women weren't allowed to be engaged until after their coming of age ceremony.

That was because during the ceremony, the temple staff had to pick out the best looking women for the temple (themselves), before leaving the unwanted ones for the common men in the empire.

And unlike the Pyno continent, the coming of age for people in the Lambe continent was 13 years old, rather than 15.

One should remember that in this era, due to all the hard labour and physical restraints on one's body, menopause happened around 27 years old and above.

So the people believed that the younger the girl, the more childbearing she would be.

Anyway, the temple of Adonis had instilled fear into the people all these years, as men weren't safe too.

40% of their business profits and merits had to go to the temple

Anyone who failed to pay would be executed on the spot.

That said, the people have lived in constant fear of this tyrannical temple.

They had been praying and crying for a change.

But so far, no one has come to their aid yet.

And even those who dared to resist and form an anti-Adonis opposition group ended up dead.

So what could they do?

.

Everyone shivered in their homes while praying that these knights marching outside could hurry up.

They didn't know where they were going or what they intended to do.

But all they wanted to know was when they would leave.

That's right, tens of thousands of knights were constantly marching into the coastal city fiercely.

'Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!'

On the sandy shores, thousands of knights were gathered in formation while waiting for the last batch of knights to arrive.

And standing on the docks, was Chief Commander Hutton, who was overlooking them sternly.

Hutton wore an all-black armoury that had several golden symbols and letter writings scribbled on it.

Again, the feather on top of his helmet was golden, and his sword sheath also had a large golden symbol of the letter A for Adonis on it.

Hutton stood majestically while enjoying the admiring gaze of the men below.

And soon, some on rushed towards him hastily.

"Chief Commander, all 250,000 men are here."

"Good!" Hutton said while smiling broadly.

With that, he stepped a little closer and someone brought a megaphone by his mouth.

. 

"Men, today, we will embark on another grand mission for the greater good of our temple and our leader, Adonis the 3rd."

The moment Adonis' name was mentioned, everyone knelt, did a letter 'A' with their fingers and placed it against their foreheads.

"All hail Adonis our glorious leader." 

After paying their respect, everyone including Hutton got up again.

Every time Adonis' name was mentioned, they had to kneel no matter where they were, otherwise if caught, it would be seen as betrayal.

"Men, our mission is the same as always: to conquer the world for Adonis.

However, it seems that some people want to stand in our way.

"Yes, you heard me right.

It appears that some unbelievers want to stop our plans.

But we aren't entirely sure yet.

A while back, we sent some of our brothers towards the Pyno continent.

And our forces on the many pirate islands along the way haven't gotten any news of their victory.

We are sure that they did reach the coastlines of the Arcadian Empire.

However, there was no return message about their victory, which could only mean that they either betrayed us, died or got captured by the enemy.

So we will go find out for ourselves about what happens to our brothers.

And at the same time, we will wage war against these non-believers.

This time, we will conquer the enemy, just as we've done over the years.

Now men, it's time to fight for our temple.

It's time to fight for Adonis!"

"All hail Adonis our glorious leader." 

"All hail Adonis our glorious leader." 

"All hail Adonis our glorious leader."
