Chapter 213

****

Currently, Duke Norman's men just got the new ballistas and were using these at the other border against the Beasts .

One of the guards asked curiously, "Boss, it has become quite easy to handle these beasts after we got these ballistas, Why don't we increase the amount and funding on these weapons . What do you think?"

The Head nodded and spoke as he smoked a cigarette, "True, previously we always had to wait for those beasts to come near the walls to fire our arrows which would make us vulnerable to their magic . However, these Ballistas are provided by Prince Hector and Duke himself so it's quite hard to get your hands on it . "

He watched the men using the ballistas as they were in a happy mood after a long time .

One of the soldiers spoke as he laughed, "With this, we can even easily take the Wildland away, can't we? Work has never been this easy . No wonder those guys at North-frontier City act quite cockily . "

The other guy understood but spoke in a grave tone, "Ohh please, why do you want to increase our workload? We are already at war with that Count . "

Hearing this gossip, the head immediately jolted after hearing this talk, 'Yes, why don't we tame all the untamed lands? Who knows we can even find Magic metal and gold mines, not to mention we would gain access to unknown lands . Damn it, I need to inform the Duke immediately . My promotion rests on this suggestion . '

However, currently, Ross and men were continuing to increase their lands where they would face some unknown beasts and roll over them by using the much superior cannons .

Ross thought as he continued, "I guess Lord Taylor would be quite happy after knowing our current results and increase in our lands . "

The head murmured as he was coming back from the city office of Bliss City at North, "Damn it, I can't even contact the Duke or any other important officials . Well, I was still able to write a letter to them who knows if they can take a look at it and get me promoted . "

Blake was currently patrolling the waters around Aurora and Winter City . As their ship spotted a small fleet of 4 ships with a flag of two cross pick-axes, one hammer at the bottom and a crown at the top .

Boris the scout, irritatingly spoke after he spotted the fleet, "Damn it, again those dwarves, Hmm . . why do they have the ballistas? It seems they have managed to copy it . Boss, see this, it's the dwarves again . "

One of the fleets of Fjord's too was traveling towards the Direction of Winter city which was spotted by Blake and his men,

One of the guys from the Dwarves fleet exclaimed as he spotted smoke in the sky, "Hey, how is there fire burning?"

Head of the Dwarves fleet was alerted as he heard of the fire, "Fire? Is there a settlement? Weren't these Dangerous beasts such as Draco-elephants and the Dark Hyenas running around over there? There can't be fire beasts over here . "

As soon as he exclaimed, he soon heard the sound of a cannon shattering one of the ships .

One of the guys exclaimed with horror as he spotted the cannonballs, "Omg, what is this? How are they able to attack us from such a long-range? God, what is this ordeal . "

Blake cursed as he spotted the two fleets, "Damn it, why did both of them have to come here together? fuck it, use the cannon with full force, kill all of them or capture them, I don't care . No one should escape . "

He continued as he immediately ordered the other ships with a horn, "Don't let anyone of them escape or else it would only spell more trouble for us . "

Judd too nodded as he looked at his Aurora horse as he smiled and spoke, "I guess it is still not your time yet . You will have to wait for your time of action . "

Judd nodded after hearing Blake as he ordered his men to fire at Fjord's camp, "Fire . Don't miss a single one . Just use them as we did with the Ballistas . "

The dwarf captain roared, "So these are the guys who are responsible for the many sunken ships and dead men previously . We will certainly repay you for this . "

He immediately ordered, "Leave, We are leaving immediately . "

Judd smiled as he heard the Head, "You wish . We would be dead if you guys are able to escape with these accessories . "

The Dwarves men too were bombarded by the cannons as Blake and his men started using the cannons with full force towards their enemies .

One of the men from Dwarves board liked to keep a log whenever he traveled as he noted down the events he witnessed today,

Watching the Dwarves trying to run,

Fjord's men too started running after spotting the Dwarves,

The Head of Fjord's ship cursed as he spotted the settlement, "Damn it, no wonder they were able to survive in the Monstrous wilds these days . They had already made a base at this settlement . We need to inform the duke immediately about this development . "

As they were running Blake smiled for the first time and started to use the boosters and steam engines on the ships .

Blake smiled and ordered, "Time to show them our real power . Men, Unleash this sea beast warship . I will see how they escape today . "

Bran immediately came and spoke, "Boss, please, you don't try to act cool . You can give us straight orders . "

The mates at the ship laughed as they immediately followed the orders .

Both of them(Fjord and Dwarves) were quite surprised as they found the acceleration of the warships belonging to Count John .

The dwarf captain roared as he noticed the peculiarity, "Damn it, What sorcery is this? How are they able to overrun the ship made by Fjords . Are we really running behind the times?"

He roared and ordered his men, "Resist, we can't run . approach them and try to kill them . "

One of the guys threw a bottle with a letter inside the ocean before even his ship caught fire .

He sighed and spoke, "It's better if we surrender . "

Very soon all of them were gunned down, while 2 ships surrendered themselves which was caught by Blake .

Blake sighed with relief as he was able to contain the situation, "Phew, none of them were able to escape . Bring the prisoners back to Aurora . "

Judd remarked as he escorted the two ships, "It is getting dangerous day by day . We need to do something about it . "

One of the guys roared, "Damn it, what are those weapons you used before? And how come your ships are so fast compared to our ships?"

One of the guys smiled and answered, "Just a secret trump card . Well, we couldn't have let you reveal the existence of Aurora and Winter City so, in the end, we had to use them . As far as the speed of ships are concerned it is because of the something that we developed recently i . e . The Magic boosters . "

With an Irritated face, Judd roared to gossiper, "Stop shooting your mouth left and right . Don't come crying when I give you harsher punishment . "

Meanwhile, that bottle with a letter was slowly traveling in the sea .

Very Soon 4 days passed,

General Irwin remarked as he saw the same casual pace at the borders of the Southern Castle, "It seems they are still not ready to surrender . It seems we have no choice . "

Johnson smiled as she saw the event unfolding, "Yes, we can finally start our operation . I am sure you are ready, right?"

Irwin nodded and called his messenger, "Yes, I want to send that general, one last letter . "

John was at the Southern Castle after he got the warning of invasion from King Lionheart himself,

Arlen smiled and asked, "Lord, you seem unusually happy currently, what's the occasion . "

John smiled and answered, "Well, this is the time when we are finally ready to unmask all the pretenses, both by the Royal family and we the North-frontier domain . If a battle occurs today then it will be sending shockwaves to the whole continent because of this battle and we will establish our power for the first time . However, this continent will face a lot of losses if that King is stubborn . "

Arlen was amused as he thought a bit and answered, "Lord, what would be your decision if the Royal family had supported you instead of Fjord previously?"

John smiled and answered after looking at armies on both the sides, "Well, in that case, I would have fulfilled my promises, fought for the Aelius Kingdom just like any other person if they kept their promises . I am not someone who will betray unless I am betrayed, I guess I have my honor when I make promises . Not to mention, the Royal family who has a history of betrayals . It's quite ironic as sometimes I value honor while sometimes when it comes to the lives of my men I won't value honor . I guess I am somewhat of a hypocrite . "

Arlen was quite shocked after hearing him as he pondered on John's answer, 'Lord is quite an interesting man . '

Luke was currently worrying about his life as it seemed that Count John was not bluffing previously when he had talks with him, "Damn! We are finally at this point . Do we really have to go through this war? Can't that count simply bow his head once or sacrifice some of his men?"

Looking at the ruckus at the Ambassadorial place,

Taylor came in and spoke, "Minister Luke, you don't need to worry about your life as long as you are behaving according to the protocols . We are not someone who will implicate a diplomat or a messenger even if he is of the enemy kingdom . "

Luke was shocked as he heard Taylor, 'They never referred us as an enemy kingdom . What are they planning?'

Luke angrily asked after hearing him, "What do you mean, interior minister Taylor? Are you referring us as an enemy kingdom? North-frontier domain STILL BELONGS TO AELIUS . "

Taylor looked down at him and spoke with a cold tone, "It is as you have heard . I think you already know about the armies at our borders or the situation at present where there are three armies, one belonging to General Irwin, 2nd the Templars of Radiant Church and 3rd one, ours . This is the Day of reckoning which all of you should know . If we lose this war, most of us belonging to North-frontier domain would die . And if we survive, we will be carving up a new kingdom . You better be prepared for this because the greed of the Royal family led to this situation . And yes you shouldn't be worried about your life . Do you know why the people here still trust Count John?"

Taylor had a nostalgic face as he remembered that day clearly, He continued and spoke with resolve, "It is because he has never let his people down from the day he became a lord here . I still remember that day clearly when Count John stood by Jake . When Evan asked for Jake's head, that was the day when I saw that all the people here changed with him including me . You see, the irony is, even I as a father, I was prepared to not blame the count if he gave up on Jake when he met a bigger power in the form of Evan . But unexpectedly, he did the unthinkable and stood by his men for the injustice done by the aristocrats of this land . I am glad that even if I die in this war, I will die serving a lord who will be there fighting along with us . Look at the men outside, you will see that all of them are determined to fight with their Lord which includes the commoners and slaves who will soon become commoners . "

Luke was astonished as he heard Taylor's resolute announcement . Most of the guards here were moved by Taylor but angered at thought of carving up a kingdom but still understood the thinking of people at North-frontier city . They were quite used to the royal family scandals when they read the paper and hence their indifference currently .

Taylor clearly remembered how John wanted to keep the promises he made and spoke with a smile to all of them present, "Do you know what was your mistake?"

He continued with a smile, "You didn't keep your promises with us and you thought that we would take all of these offenses lying down . "

Elison nodded as he heard Taylor, He thought, 'No wonder count John has such big support over here . It seems he always had this big plan when he stood up for that slave . I guess I can now trust that we wouldn't be hurt over here . However, this war will certainly be catastrophic if we face such men . That Count is surely dangerous if he had planned all of this from the start . '

Luke seriously pondered for the first time, 'It seems I underestimated them, we really miscalculated bigtime . I wish I had some way to stop this war . Damn it . Did we really make a big mistake by supporting Fjord instead of Count John?'
