Chapter 80: Chapter 74 – Empire attacks

The sounds of swords clashing and the groans of dying people flooded the whole area in a flash. Magic spells were flying everywhere on the battlefield left and right from both sides.

(Fireball)

“Don't let them retreat to the keep, Surround them,” The commander of the army gave his order, the warriors were rushing while swinging their swords.

Empire had already taken the borders and they decided to attack the Malfoy kingdom in a flash, so they were taking their cities one by one on their way to the capital.

Even though the alliance of kingdoms put their full effort to protect the border, the empire was somehow able to defeat their armies and advance forward. 

Empire was a powerful enemy that cannot be underestimated by any means even if all the kingdoms ganged up on them, but for a few decades empire had a friendly relationship with many kingdoms.

All this hostility started with the throning of the new king, Pete sacredmore. People in the empire had no idea why they are going to fight a war with friendly human nations. Even the kingdom had no idea why they were being attacked. They only got the war declaration without stating any reason.

Malfoy kingdom was especially angered because Pete's mother, Andriya the current empress didn't do anything to stop this war despite originally being from the kingdom.  

Empire had already taken a considerable number of territories from the kingdom. Both the parties were experiencing heavy losses including lives, food and resources.

The city which they are siegeing now belonged to a count from the Malfoy kingdom. It was a close battle since they had better defence but in the end, the empire had the advantage of numbers and better quality troops.

“Kill all the enemies, We will take this city before the dawn,” 

Ever since the empire managed to breach the gate they were killing kingdom citizens and soldiers left and right. Chaos was overtaking the city and filling its road with blood and dead bodies. 

“Commander, Count had already escaped, We took the city,” The soldiers of the empire made victory cries seeing that they were successfully able to take the city.

 A few hours later, the camp of the empire got the news of their victory. Since Pete didn't personally lead this battle he stayed in the camp expecting a positive result from the attack.

“Your highness, We successfully took the city, but the count has escaped to the capital, we await your next orders,” 

Pete quickly got up from the bed, he was naked for some reason but after seeing his bed only the messenger understood why he was like that. A girl was lying unconscious on his bed 

The messenger didn't expect to see their emperor indulging in debauchery even in the middle of the battlefield. 

“Good, tell them to take a good rest and we will attack the next city after two days, and do you know where my mother is?“ Pete asked drinking up some wine.

Messenger knew how hot-tempered their emperor was so he didn't want to point out useless things and lose his life so he got to the point and answered him, 

“Queen went back to the capital, your highness,” 

“Whaat? Why didn't she say anything about that to me?” He kept bashing her but the messenger was silent the whole time.

“Whatever, I can manage the war without her, I'm sick of waiting, it took us 4 years and an unlimited amount of tries just to break through the borders, we will only stop when the whole Malfoy kingdom bows their knees,”

Velian POV

My mother and aunt Asumi went back to the alliance to help all the village chiefs with management and keep them in check. I only wanted my aunt to go because she had her two children there but my mother objected to her going alone and since she wasn't busy as us in this city, she wanted to do with her and manage the alliance.

I thought she wouldn't want to be away from me and Delvi but, her desire to be useful caused her to take this decision.

It had been a few days since I met Juno, she was highly occupied with all the new work and had no time to talk with me. I wanted to talk with her about something important.

On my way to the part where they reside in this city, I met the grandfather of Juno, he was talking with a lady who looked really familiar.

“Hey Old man, did you see Juno, is she training our newbies?“ I wanted to quickly leave and meet her.

“Oh, you're here at a great time, boy," He quickly introduced me to the lady in front of me, ignoring my question.

“It's nice to meet our new leader in a palace like this, let me introduce myself I'm the guild master of the merchant guild, Samara Cook" She introduced herself.

I only identified get after she told me her name, Even though I heard about her from the doppel, I had never seen her face to face until now.

“It's nice to meet the renowned guild master, I heard a lot of good things about you from the people,” I was interested in why she wanted to meet me.

“Well, I'm glad to hear that, I heard you changed a lot of things in this city, I wanted to say thank you for doing all this,” 

“Sadly, other guild master betrayed you, he was one of the highest ranks in this city,” She said.

“He had a good record, it's such a shame that he decided to be an enemy, I heard you two were some kind of rivals,” I was interested in her rank so I used my appraisal on her but her rank wasn't that high, it makes sense since she excels more in business than ranks.

“So how did you two get to know each other,” I was interested in their relationship but I didn't want to be so meddlesome.

“I was interested in beastmen, so I wanted to meet someone of higher rank for a long time and I met Gin when I was trying to meet Juno,” She didn't mind his question.

“That's good, anyway I will talk with you at a later date, I planned to meet Juno today, so see you later,” I left to meet Juno saying my farewell to them. 

“He ain't that bad or proud for a leader, I guess it's good,” Since my hearing was good, I heard her compliment.

“Don't be fooled by that kid, he is one hell of a scary kid, It's just you haven't done something to offend him yet,” I felt really bad for Old man.

“Was he still thinking about what I did when I first met them,” 

I entered the training area thinking about it.
