Sheeva exhaled with a languid expression on her face. She glanced at General Gesikana, who was snoring and sleeping.
In the end, there was no word from his sister Gigi. Neither Dorga nor Hiyama had made any move since then.
Although the soldiers had been resting for the past three days, ready to go out at any time, Shiwa was sure in his gut that he would hear something from Gigi or Toits within a day or two at the very least. This turned out to be a complete betrayal of his expectations.
Meanwhile, General Gesikana was growing impatient. He concluded that there would probably be no contact from Gigi or Toits. Rather, he insisted that they should attack Dorga and Hiyama at once. This was his military intuition, but he could not answer Siwa's question asking for evidence for it.
In the end, the Warlovian army had to remain in the area because they could not argue with Siwa, who was able to explain the disadvantages of implementing the general's proposal in a logical manner.
General Gesikhana continued to be tormented by an indescribable sense of uneasiness that welled up from the bottom of his heart. To relieve this anxiety, General Gesikhana sought an outlet in Sheeva's body.
He was a man with strong s*xual desires. However, he did not have the physical strength of a young man, and his male faculties had already diminished. For this reason, he played with Siwa's body relentlessly.
This almost made Sheeva cry. After all, she was being woken up from morning till night, or even while she was sleeping, to be demanded by him. She had never experienced anything like this before, an act that gave her no pleasure and was nothing but pain for her.
Shewa tried to persuade the general with her absolute confidence in her ability to explain things clearly, but she was unable to suppress his desires. Instead, it only served to irritate him further, and each time she was pushed down by force.
Their relationship was already on the verge of collapse.
"Please summon the others."
Sheeva, dragging her tired body, gives an order to the soldier. The man huffs and paces away. She did not return to her former room, where General Gesikhana was supposed to be sleeping on the bed, naked.
After a while, the staff is assembled and a war council begins. At that moment, a messenger suddenly jumped into the room.
"Hah, I tell you! From the Imperial Capital, Count Riikan has arrived as ...... imperial envoy."
"An imperial envoy?"
Sheehywa looks doubtful. The messenger bows to her and quickly leaves. He was replaced by a man with a handsome face. He took one look at Sheeva and the other staff members, and without a word of greeting, ordered them to call General Gesikhana. When he saw that everyone was present, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and began to read it out loud.
All troops, return to the capital immediately. Emperor of the Warlov Empire, Warlov Gurwa Mishin.
General Gesikhana and his staff are in a state of shock. Count Rieekan, who was watching them with a look of satisfaction on his face, spoke rapidly.
A national crisis is happening. Please return home as soon as possible.
With these words, he left the place as quickly as he could.
Gesikhana and Sheeva looked at each other for a while, and then Sheeva opened her mouth in frustration.
What is that? It is wrong to give such an order ...... to abandon the rebellion in Dorga and Hiyama and return home."
"With all due respect, Mr. Deputy Commander-in-Chief, since you gave an imperial order, I think it would be best if you returned home immediately. ......"
The young staff member gives his advice without hesitation. Sheiwa gave him a cold stare, but then turned his attention to General Gesikhana, who was sitting next to him, without trying to change his grim expression.
He sighed loudly and opened his mouth as if to throw up.
"I have an imperial order. All troops, move out."
"Please wait. Gigi and Toits are still in Dorga. We will rescue them and then leave.
"......"
The general looks at Siwa for a moment, then slowly opens his mouth, keeping his eyes fixed on her.
"Silaurus."
"Ha."
"Head for Dorga. And bring back Gigi and Toits."
Yes, sir.
All troops, pull back to the capital. All troops, pull out toward the capital and be ready at once!
At General Gesikhana's words, everyone except Sheeva bowed their heads.
The first time I saw the two men, I was surprised to see that they were all in the same boat.
When they returned to the capital, they were met by Count Riikan, who had come there as an imperial envoy. He urged Gesikyana and Siwa to come to the palace as soon as they arrived.
"Then change your clothes ......".
No, I'm fine just the way I am.
"That being said, ......"
"Your majesty the Emperor has sent me on an urgent mission. Please leave us as we are and go to the palace first. I will accompany you.
At Count Riikan's words, both Gesikana and Sheeva looked at each other, but they eventually agreed to his recommendation and headed for the palace where the emperor resided, still in their traveling clothes.
However, Lee Kang did not go to the palace, but to the residence of Count Kahnji. Just after Gesikana and Siwa entered the Count's mansion, they saw the gate of the mansion quietly closed, and they finally realized that something was wrong.
In the hall of the house, the Prime Minister, St. Mark Rosenheim, was waiting for them. Rosenheim gave them a cold stare and slowly read out the letter he was holding in his hand.
"I am aware of your treacherous intentions. I hereby order you both to be arrested and confined in the prison of Carcolom. Warlov Gerwa Mishin, Emperor of the Warlov Empire."
Rosenheim's voice was devoid of any emotion as he began to explain the situation to the two men, who were surprised by the emperor's order.
"First of all, the Kingdom of Burial, which invaded our country, was destroyed ....... I don't think I know the face of the invader at all. Just two days ago, Burial was occupied by the New Crimean Church forces. And yesterday morning I received a letter from the Pope. It said that the New Crimiana army will attack our country."
Gesikana and Sheeva roll their eyes in amazement. Rosenheim took one look at them and continued.
"The reason for attacking our country is that the Pope himself, along with the King of Agartha, was treated with great disrespect by Vice Commander-in-Chief Siwa during the recent battles at Durga and Hiyama. To avenge that shame, he says, he is going to eradicate our country. ......"
"Please wait! I have no disrespect ......"
Be quiet.
Rosenheim's eyes were filled with murderous intent. The sheer force of it left Siwa speechless.
"At the same time as the letter from Klimiana arrived, a letter from the Emperor of the Heedata Empire arrived. It said that His Majesty Barsam Darke Rinos, King of Agartha, was greatly distressed. He said that although he had recaptured Hiyama and Dorga, he had been driven out of the fortress he had occupied without any effort from the Imperial Army. The King of Agartha himself does not care, but I hear that there is a great deal of discontent within Agartha against our nation."
"Please wait. How can this ...... disrespect be construed to mean that you are against me or General Gesikana! I don't understand the meaning of your words!"
As Siwa struggled to squeeze out a few words, Rosenheim continued again.
"Commander-in-Chief Gesikana, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Siwa. Our country's credibility has been shattered by this battle. You did not sacrifice your own generals, but you sacrificed the forces of other countries. ....... And that's not all. He has been disrespectful to the kings of Agartha and Crimiana, and he has even betrayed Dorga and Hyama, which he had taken back, to his own men. ......
"Therefore, I and General Gesikana will see to it that Dorga and Hiyama are recaptured! On this occasion, we will retake the island with our imperial army. Therefore, please visit ......."
"It's no use."
"Useless, huh?"
The only condition for the new Klimiana not to attack us is the cession of Durga and Hiyama.
What?
The current state of our empire has no chance of winning a war against the New Crimiana Church. Only Agartha can stand against them. But Agartha's opinion of our nation is very bad. Even if we were to enter into a war with the Crimiana, I do not believe that Agartha would stand on our side. Therefore, ...... it is with great bitterness that we have decided to accept the terms of the New Crimiana."
"Such ....... But, but, that would not be the reason for my and General Gesikana's treason! We may be responsible for the failure of the operation, but not for treason against the state. ......"
Rosenheim, who had been looking at Siwa hatefully as she tried desperately to explain herself, suddenly clapped his hands twice as if to silence her.
"An emissary from the New Crimiana Church has just arrived at this mansion. You should see him."
"...... excuse me."
A man and a woman appeared next to Rosenheim. Seeing them, Siwa was speechless with astonishment.
To his surprise, it was Toits and Gigi who appeared as emissaries of the new Crimiana cult. .......
