The Great War of Rhodesia
18. Back To North



Meanwhile the situation in the Northern Plains was not getting any better for the Estrinx Kingdom.


Some of the garrisons around the small village on the eastern side of the Elbrasta region that Constantine had found before, turned out to be a strategy from Sefier to carry out a surprise attack on the Estrinx region from several places simultaneously.


The Arcdux army of Lugwin to the north.


Elbrasta's forces in the Cilum region reportedly began occupying several strategic towns and valuable mineral mines in the region.


While the rebel forces of the Kingdom of Cilum who still continue to try to fight can not do much because of the lack of combat power they have.


While almost simultaneously 2 messages arrived in the Central Region, aimed at Lucia. One of the leaders of the rebel forces of Cilum, the other from the Arcdux Kingdom of Estrinx.


.


"So that's why Sefier took over Cilum. To get mining the raw minerals of the Arcane rocks?" caspian said as if he were making a conclusion.


Lucia, along with military officials and lawmakers, are holding a meeting on the issues of the two letters.


"That's what Mr. Makari wrote in his letter." Lucia allowing.


"Are they going to make a direct attack into the defense line of the opponent's territory on a large scale?" I don't know why Caspian looks upset to hear the news. "As the Muggers did in this region 6 years ago?"


"That's possible. It is also the excitement that makes Mr. Makari send us a letter" Lucia responded.


"With the Arcane rocks it makes the movement of Sepher's troops so difficult to read." This time Vossler gave his assessment.


"And only this central region alone has an Antidote Magic Formation. I can imagine their worries." Oland.


"Then what is His Majesty's decision about Mr Makari's request?" Now it was Cornelius who asked.


"For now we can't do much. We can only promise shelter to the refugees. That's it," Lucia replied.


"Yes, I also agree with Your Majesty. They still have the original royal family which is now in the Durahan kingdom. So we don't have to help them with combat power." Cornelius seemed to agree with Lucia's decision.


"And contrary to the previous letter, the letter from Lugwin did not even ask for combat power assistance at all" Lucia said then continued the talks.


"As Nata predicted. It seems that Lugwin just wants to ask us to accept and protect some refugees who might come here in the future" the young queen added.


"They didn't ask for help?" Orland seemed to be not expecting.


"I think Lugwin understands the situation we're in right now" Lucia replied. "We are still not really sitting right now" he continued with the parable.


"Where the two boys withdrew their return" Jean said.


"They only resigned for a few days. Don't worry they'll be back in time" Lucia replied later.

Later that night in the Azuar Forest, Aksa and Nata were talking about their next plan in their room.


"So this is a list of magic tools that we need to prioritize first." Nata handed a piece of paper to Aksa.


"This Magic Phone may only be used in a closed heart by inserting some other phone identification permanently" said Aksa after reading a glimpse of the contents of the paper. "Yes, although it will be a little delay, but it can still be tolerated" he added.


"If that's not too much of a problem. The dangerous thing is when the tool falls into the hands of outsiders" said Nata conveyed his concerns. "That means our entire conversation can be uncovered because the identifier of each tool is permanently stored."


"really. But it's inevitable. If we wait until we get a frequency replacement solution, it'll probably be a lot longer." Aksa answered.


"I knew. I'm just worried" Nata responded. "Our priority now is how to deal with Alta Larma and some equipment to help us fight against Elbrasta's forces. So the frequency issue we'll take care of later" he added.


"So you're definitely coming back tomorrow?" ask Aksa later.


"Yes. I don't think it's efficient for me to be in this place either. I'll head to the Estrinx region and try to buy as long as possible while you finish all that stuff." Nata explained the reason.


"Don't worry. Mr. Moor and the other Elf leaders have promised to help us mass-make the equipment" Aksa said, sounding confident. "Origin is also beneficial to them," he then follows.


"I think the active Soul Flow-powered machine would be very beneficial to them."


"It's clear. Just look at their sparkling gazes wanting knowledge of that machine."


"You mean our ultimate weapon?" Aksa asked ensuring enthusiastically. "Don't worry, now only Val, Yvvone, and his entourage know. We will also work on it secretly in this place" he replied later.


"Be careful. Because you're in their place. They'll have an easier time smelling suspicious gelagat." Nata gave a warning again.


"What do you think I am?" Aksa seemed to not accept the warning of his best friend. "If they start to suspect, I'll just divert it with other knowledge such as hologram magic or what looks Wah, they must be distorted," he continued with origin.


"As far as you are." Nata flicked his hand as he headed towards the bed. "And never make a Magic Mecha before our secret tool is done" he added with another warning.


"Just calm. Magic Mecha can wait."

The next morning only Nata and Lily returned to the Central Region with Delay. Aksa, Rafa, Luque, and the rest of the Elves remained in the Azuar Forest. Making some magic equipment to support Nata's previous plan.

Nata and Lily met Lucia at her residence moments after they arrived at the Central Region. The young man told him all the things that happened during their time in the Azuar Forest.


"What did you say? Aksa's making magic tools now?" Lucia is seen twitching her eyes several times trying to make sure she is not asleep.


"really. This is one of his tools." Nata placed the official device called the Magic Phone on the table before Lucia.


"What'sthis? Radio Communications?" asked Lucia who recognized the resemblance of the device to Radio Communications.


"That kind. Aksa insisted on speeding over the Magic Phone." Nata provides additional information that is not too important.


"Magic Phone?" This time Jean, who was also with them, asked while looking more closely at the object.


"really. It is just like Radio Communications. It's just that this device doesn't require a wired network or Antenna Tower to communicate."


"Oh, really?" Looks both Lucia and Jean are surprised to hear Nata's explanation of the Magic Phone.


"Yes, similar to Marking Magic. This tool can be used wherever we are. Just by selecting an identifier from another tool and then channeling the Soul Stream to start the call," clearly Nata while pointing a few buttons in the back of the Magic Phone with a sequence of numbers strewn on it.


"Yes, this is indeed like a tool made by that strange boy." Jean responds as Lucia examines the back of the device.


"I will leave one for Her Majesty the Queen" Nata said later.


"So His Majesty can keep up with me and Aksa from this place" he continued.


"Well, it's really very useful." Lucia could not cover her joy and happiness in getting the device at the right time like now.


"So you plan to head to Estrinx by Iron Ship over the eastern seaboard?" Jean asks distract Lucia from the Magic Phone.


"It's just the least risky way I can go. Although it will probably take a little longer," replied Nata explained.


"I understand. So the Hunter Trio will also come with you?" This time Lucia asked.


"Yes, Your Majesty. They come from that region. So it would be helpful if the three hunters were to come as guides there." Nata answered. "Besides Mr. Axel, Mr. Sigurd, and Ms. Ende will also be coming" he added later.


"Yes, that's because their Iron Ship is the one you will use later. And Mr. Cedric told me that the three men would not accept being excluded on this trip." Lucia retaliated.


"I think they're a very helpful addition. I feel safer traveling with them" responded Nata who was grateful that the three Fire Star members wanted to come with him.


"All right then. Today Uncle Orland and Brother Cornelius are preparing everything you need for the trip at the new port where the refugees are." Lucia spoke again.


"Oh, right. I haven't been to that refugee shelter since it was built."


"Yes, look at me. It's like a small town now." Lucia slightly shook her head with a lethargic face.


Not because it is not happy to have to take care of many people when the Southern Region is still under construction, he said, but it is sad to remember the many people who were displaced and had to leave their homes and homeland.
