The Great War of Rhodesia

11. Sepher Movement

A few days later Elbrasta under Sefier began to attack Cilum and Estrinx at once.

Which was responded by the Cilum and Estrinx with a counterattack. To make the border area of Elbrasta with Cilum and Estrinx was turned into a battlefield.

Residents around the area began to flee to safer areas. As for the residents of Elbrasta some choose to go to Rhodesodia.

"The number of refugees coming to the camp outside the North Gate is now increasing. That place can barely accommodate them all properly." Cornelius said he opened a meeting held at Lucia's residence. It was attended by Lucia, Nata, Vossler, Jean, Lily, Orland, and Constantine.

"Then what about the work to create a temporary refugee shelter in the eastern region of Ignus?" Lucia asked.

"It will still take a few more days until the refugees can begin to move into the region. Now we are revamping public facilities such as bathrooms and clean water networks in the place," replied Cornelius gave a brief explanation.

"A few days ago I also talked to the Ghalia and Voryn families about this issue. And they understand the situation we are in. Also thank you that we still care about them" Constantine added.

"It's good that it is." Lucia looks relieved.

"And I think after this we need more Iron Ships on the east coast. As an act of anticipation, Your Majesty. Because we don't know what exactly that Counselor Seithr is planning." Vossler.

"Yes, we must not be careless if indeed Sefier is the mastermind behind the problem." Lucia seemed to agree with Vossler's remarks.

"But how could they be confident enough to make a direct attack in both directions at once?" orland then spoke. "Where can they get enough soldiers to do it? Hasn't Elbrasta been in a civil war?"

"It looks like Elbrasta is currently relying on members of the 7 guards to carry out the attack" Vossler replied.

"Are they equipped with Scion bracelets for additional weapons?" Nata interjected with a question.

"Until now, no news of Scion's bracelet has been seen in the fight. They only used ordinary Mystical Weapons." Vossler again replied with the necessary explanation.

"Please investigate this further, Mr. Vossler. Because even though they know that we will not interfere in this war because of our problems with the kingdoms of Joren and Augra, but it's still strange to see such a confident attitude if they don't have a powerful enough weapon." Nata expressed his suspicion.

"Okay Mr. Nata, I will investigate it further" Vossler replied firmly.

"Hopefully their war will never come here" Orland said. "Because if the war reaches our territory, then most likely the kingdoms of Augra and Joren will also move to take advantage of the opportunity to attack us."

"Yes, that possibility is indeed very great lord Orland. Therefore, we must immediately deal with the southern problem before the war that Sefier brought to get here" Nata said later.

"Then what are your plans for this, Nat?" This time Lucia asked.

And then Nata began to explain his plan.

A week later there was shocking news that Kotaraja Kingdom Cilum was destroyed only in an overnight attack.

And therefore, now Cilum's side began to struggle. Their territory gradually began to be controlled by the forces of Elbrasta.

This not only shocked the people of the northern mainland, but the entire Elder mainland as well.

The Estrinx Kingdom was now beginning to feel unsettled and fearful. Because sooner or later it will also happen to their Kotaraja.

.

"Is that true?" aksa asked to confirm the news he had heard, as he and the others were talking in the tent after dinner. "Kotaraja Cilum was destroyed overnight?" repeat again to emphasize.

"As we thought. They have weapons that don't mess around" Nata replied from the end of the sofa writing something in his book.

"But if it's Alta Larma, it means Solas's estimate of the time it took to do the alignment was wrong" said Aksa, who looked like he was making calculations in his head.

"They can use it now. But if you follow the calculation there should still be about 2 to 3 months left."

"It seems that either Mr. Solas had miscalculated initially, or that there was indeed someone skilled enough to hasten the Alignment technique," replied Lily who was sitting next to Luque.

"But is there really anyone who is that good?" Aksa asked again.

"To my knowledge only the Azuar clan know and are experts in the use of Alta Larma" Luque replied.

"After this I will send word to Miss Yvvone about this matter" Lily said later.

"Do you think the war in the north is coming here, Nat?" ask Luque suddenly. He seemed really curious about Nata's opinion.

"Dear Miss Luque. Because I think the intention of the man named Sefier was to carry out the conquest of the territory. And if he is done with the kingdom in the north, then the only way to take over the kingdom in the south is through our territory" Nata replied trying to explain his thoughts.

"The war in the south is not yet fully finished." Luque made a worried face.

"True, when it was also finished the festival," said Aksa then with a complaint. "But still, I will not delay checking out the place for the Hot Springs on the slopes of Sekai mountain the day after tomorrow. You're coming too, right?" he continued with questions to Luque and Rafa.

"Oh, of course I'll come along," said Luque quickly who forgot his worries.

"Yes, Mr. Aksa. I'll come with you too." Rafa replied with a smile.

Rafa knew the purpose of Aksa asking such a question was to make Luque not worry too much about the current situation.

"Hey, but remember Aks, do not use too high a budget to do development. Because we still have to build a shelter in Ignus County." Nata gives Aksa a warning.

"Yes-yes, I know. The plan I will hand over the construction and management of the place to Yllgarian," said Aksa ketus because irritated Nata reminded of things he had understood.

A few days later Ellian and Katarina who were from the Kingdom of Cilum also arrived their relatives along with some refugees from the Cilum region who asked for protection to the territory of Rhodesodia.

The influx of refugees from Cilum to the Rhodesia region is quite high. Either through the North Gate, the western Port, or the port cities along the northern coast of the southern mainland.

.

"Is your family okay?" lucia asked Ellian and Katarina as they were having a routine meeting at Lucia's residence.

"Thank God they're okay, Your Honor. We've been in contact by mail since the first Elbrasta attack. And they're ready to evacuate to this place immediately if something happens in the Cilum region." Katarina answered at length.

"Thank God it is so." Lucia looks relieved.

"But many other refugees also came with them, Your Majesty." This time, Ellian added.

"Yes, I heard it too. Then how are things at the refugee shelter in Ignus?" lucia said with a question.

"If refugees continue to grow, the shelter may turn into a new city, Your Majesty," Orland replied with a parable.

"Is it that much?" Lucia asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We have to start expanding the shelter" Orland replied.

"Will it affect our Plan of Work on the development of the south?" ask Lucia to worry.

"Not too Your Majesty. It's just that we need to allocate additional funds that will be taken from the Central Region's cash." This time Nata answered.

"If it doesn't burden the Central Region, then do it" Lucia said later.

"Okay, Your Majesty."
