The entire Capital of the Kingdom of Ray became silent at this time, when yesterday there was a massive war in this capital, the capital, but now everyone is hiding in their homes because the war is over and the ruler of the Ray Kingdom is also changing.
In yesterday's war, even though Prime Minister Solos and General Gram had fought the enemy with all their might, but in front of a number of different armies they could only lose.
Therefore, Master of the Halon Labyrinth was already the new ruler of this Ray Kingdom.
Currently in the dungeon of the Ray Kingdom, Solos was sitting in a prison with many wounds all over his body and was bound by a chain.
Before he looked like a great prime minister, but after his defeat and imprisonment his figure changed considerably from his previous appearance.
Slowly 2 men stood in front of the prison of Solos, Halon and Hepior, Halon's face now became very gloomy.
"Solus, we ask you one more time! Where is King Ray IV? As long as you tell us we can let you go, but if you still choose to be quiet then your end will be like General Gram! You know for yourself, don't you, how was Gran's fate on the battlefield yesterday?", rich Hepior coldly.
King Ray IV is the current king of Ray. After successfully capturing the Royal Capital of Ray yesterday, Halon sent all of his soldiers to find the existence of the king. As long as the king is alive, a kingdom will not die.
But no matter how they tried to search, they still did not find the existence of the king as if he had long disappeared.
Hearing Hepior's threat, Solos slightly smiled "You think I would be afraid and betray his highness just because of that? Look at this carefully, I'm sure General Gram yesterday was happy to die for his majesty, no regrets on him. Therefore, I am also not much different from Gram! I suggest you better kill me as soon as possible, there's no point in finding more information about the king to me, you're just wasting your time".
When Hepior was about to get angry, Halon raised her hand to stop Hepior.
Halon looked at Solos coldly "You may not be afraid, but what about your family? Don't you mind your whole family whether it's young or old having to die for your stupid loyalty?".
"I don't mind!", said Solos without a single moment of hesitation on him.
Looking at the stubborn Solos, Halon knew that there was no point in seeking more information from him, Solos loyalty to the king really cannot be underestimated.
Before Halon decided to leave here with Hepior, a soldier suddenly opened the door of this room "Master, sir, a soldier managed to get new news about the king from a servant who happened to see him that day!".
"Say!", said Halon excitedly, there was finally a hint of light regarding the position of the fleeing king.
"According to the news that the servant said, the elite troops to the 1st Kingdom of Ray were pulled back from the battlefield against the demons a week ago. After that, the king left with the 1st elite army about 5 days ago, for their purpose then still sought to know more!", reported the soldier.
"Who? Who would dare to betray that noble one?", cried Solos very angrily, he who had always spoken a little finally exploded upon hearing that someone had betrayed the king.
The soldier hesitated for a moment before saying "The servant did not have too much education, therefore he had difficulty determining the direction of the king's departure. But according to our calculations, most likely the king went to the Merchant Federation, he might decide to hide there until his kingdom was captured again".
Halon's eyes widened in disbelief at the report, she immediately shouted "Hepior! Prepare the whole army now! No, leave half the troops here and keep guarding the Ray Kingdom we've captured, while the other half will come with me!".
Hepior was also such an intelligent person that he already knew the king's purpose, therefore he knew the reason Halon became so panicked.
Hepior left the room without any yeast to prepare his troops, Halon currently walked away from the room as well after confirming that Solos was dead "I can't believe that the Ray Kingdom did all this just to trick me, they even sacrificed their capital!".
"But how could the Ray Kingdom know so clearly about our assault information? No, there is only 1 possibility! There's a traitor among the Master of the Labyrinth!".
Halon began to accelerate her pace to leave here with a gloomy face.
...----------------...
A day had passed since Elos had captured the Capital of Wock, yesterday Elos also gave the death sentence to Duke Wock because his existence would only bring more trouble to Elos in the future, so it's better to kill him as soon as possible. Besides that not only did Duke Wock die yesterday, but Tiamat also managed to kill Pagir who almost escaped.
When Elos was sitting down to accompany Riona, Kronev, Zeyi, Sloth, and his top brass who were eating quite luxuriously for their victory against Duke Wock, the, a soldier who was part of the guard of the residence of Elos opened the door frantically "Report, my lord! There's bad news!".
Everyone immediately looked towards the soldier, however they knew that this warrior would not dare to disturb if it was not something truly grave.
"What's the matter?", asked Elos carefully, Duke Wock kept his mouth shut yesterday about the king's plan so that Elos had no idea about the state of affairs approaching him.
"Report my lord, according to the spy we sent earlier then 10,000 Ray Kingdom troops approached us, according to, based on the armor they used then these spies were convinced that it was the 1st elite force of the Ray Kingdom, they seemed ready to attack us!", the soldier shouted.
"What's? The 1st soldier of Ray Kingdom? Shouldn't they be busy fighting demons? Why are they here?", Zeyi said in shock before explaining to Elos "Master, this 1st elite force is much more troublesome than the 3rd elite army of Ray Kingdom we have ever fought, I heard that they have 2 rank 3 people as their leader. More precisely 2 captains of the elite troops to the 1st Kingdom of Ray is as strong as General Gram who is dubbed as the strongest general of the Kingdom of Ray and serves as a great general".
Before Elos could reply, a soldier suddenly appeared again "My master, bad news! There is bad news from Novus!".
"What's wrong? Is Lumina having problems?", said Elos with a gloomy face, she suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Not my lord, we got word that Admiral Lumina had successfully captured Yact City! But the bad news was that a fleet of 1500 warships suddenly appeared and moved towards Novus Island! Based on the flags on their ships then they were from the Merchant Federation! According to some of our spies in the Merchant Federation, there is most likely also 1 rank 3 person in the merchant Federation's naval fleet", the newly arrived soldier shouted.
Elos immediately stood up from his seat, he now understood the purpose of the enemy forces was to encircle Elos in this Wock Capital and kill him, he said, it turns out all the words of Duke Wock before it is true that since Elos attacked the Capital of Wock then it means Elos has eaten the trap they prepared.
