Chapter 208: Chapter 207

Chapter 207

Liam was surprised after hearing the fate of all the Mercenaries, "It seems, this General is quite a guy looking at the fates of other mercenaries . It seems those armors made quite a difference looking at the number casualties . I wonder what would be the reaction of the Radiant Church and the Royal Family after hearing the fates of all the mercenaries . Joss, most likely escaped, he has always been a cunning guy . He was clearly planning something when he called for a meeting last time . I guess everyone got suckered in by him . "

Liam smiled as he continued, "Anyway, start preparing to transport food from tomorrow onwards since the result is clear . "

Ed smiled as he read the report, "Yes, Boss . Hahaha, you again saved our lives . Those Barbarians surely got suckered in . I always hated their guts"

Liam smiled as he heard Ed, "Well, I never intended to ally with Radiant Church in the first place so I guess that played as well . While that Musclehead always had a downfall coming his way from his behavior . "

Soon John arrived at North-frontier City with his men .

There was a line of Food carriages being carried from outside which exclaimed a row of surprise from the locals . The city was in a hubbub as they saw a long line of carriages .

One of the locals exclaimed, "Woah, what is happening?"

The other guy smiled after looking and spoke, "I guess it will be revealed soon enough . I heard today there was a blockade in the south because of repeated infiltrations by Mercenaries . Today a full battalion of 5,000 men attacked the southern Castle from what I know . "

One of the old men spoke after hearing them, "Those are fake numbers so that there is not a panic among the public . A lot of reserves from the Academy were called out today . One of my boys was also there . I am sure something big happened there since they were called . "

One of the traders exclaimed after looking at the carriages carefully, "hmm . . . from the looks of it, they seem like food and other resource carts to me . Where did they get so much food and other resources . "

The Old men smiled and answered, "It's better anyway . People would be reassured after watching this . "

There was no announcement as the policemen immediately dispersed the crowd after getting orders from superiors . While the Carriages were heading straight towards various Granaries and other storage warehouses .

Looking at the bloodstained clothes of John, Taylor immediately invited him inside the Headquarters .

Taylor asked John, "Lord, It's good seeing you again after 3 days . From the looks, it seems you had a gruesome battle . "

John nodded and answered, "Yes, We will finally be having a big war . All the existing mercenaries at our borders were killed with no one left alive . However, In the process, we killed the soldiers of Prince Hector and Baron Antonio . I wonder how would they react . "

John continued as he spoke, "Announce about the results of today's battle to everyone . A total of 70,000 men died today . I guess this day would be remembered in the history of this kingdom . However, we had quite a few gains since we were able to rob them of 500,000 Gold coins and 1 month worth of food . "

Sensing great killing intent in the city, Vlad immediately hurried to the square as he found that it was John who was leaking such great killing intent, "It looks like you were finally baptized in a battle . "

John saw Vlad's surprise and answered, "Yes, Master, It was a very gruesome battle . I had made a decision to kill all the Mercenaries today on the battlefield . What do you think?"

Vlad smiled as he saw John's determination and answered of what he thought, "First of all, you should learn to control your emotions, you are unintentionally leaking out killing intent . As for your decision, I won't blame you for your decisions as that was what saved your men . It was your right to protect your dominion and your men with whatever means possible . In the future, you will face many situations like the current one . You shouldn't get discouraged by what people say as I faced the same when I was younger . This battle can also serve as a warning to your enemies . Currently, you should focus on connecting Aurora Island and NF city . "

John thought a bit and agreed with Vlad's opinion, "Thank you, master . For connecting Aurora and North-frontier . I think Jay is already on it, It will be completed shortly . He and Arnold will complete the road real soon . I think Jay is concentrating more on the security of the roads currently . "

Vlad nodded and reported another news, "There is another news . "

John nodded, as Vlad continued, "It seems we found out about the secret factory created by the royal family near a Magic metal mine at Duke Norman's southern region . After our thorough investigations, we found that they have made ballistas that are made from Magic metals which have far greater range and power and hence their aggressive posture from the Royal family recently . I think you can play them this time around since we have this information . And from the Spies, my men spotted King Lionheart at Radiant city just this morning . It seems a lot of moves have taken place while we were getting distracted from the mercenaries . "

Vlad thought as he thought about Friedreich's letter, 'How do I ask a favor from my disciple . Duke Friedreich really asks a lot . Nah, I ain't inviting him now . Let him handle this himself . "

John commented as he heard, "It seems we need to be on a defensive since the King has moved as well . I am sure he is planning something big . No wonder he was so aggressive after getting the Ballistas . We will try completing the road as soon as possible so that we won't be vulnerable anyway . And also try to improve the security of the area cleared by our men . Are you clear Taylor?"

Taylor answered after getting orders, "Yes, Sir . There are also reports that the Royal Navy has started increasing its patrols in the eastern and northern seas . Recently, because of disputes with the Dwarven Kingdom, They have claimed superiority in the waters just recently when they had a skirmish . Meanwhile, the dwarves are quiet at the moment . "

John thought and decided, "Hmm . . . Ok, I have decided, We will transport some of our cannons to the ships as well so that we are cautious . Is there any news on the steam engines?"

Taylor nodded and answered, "Yes, they are already prepared by Tornwall and his men and have started productions, Tornwall is only waiting for Aurora and NF City to be connected so that they can be fitted to the ships . "

John nodded and spoke, "Ok, it's decided, start transporting them with the Cannons . No need to worry about the security of the road . I don't want to take any chances in the seas as well since everyone is making moves . "

The next day,

Elison came in after he got news from Dolores, "Lord there is bad news . "

Luke furrowed his brows as he heard Elison, "What sort of bad news is it now?"

Elison spoke hoarsely as he tried to calm himself down, "It is the mercenaries . Mercenaries . "

With an irritating face, Luke asked, "What have they done now?"
