“Abviously, why did they accept my request?” A middle-aged man with a large and ferocious stature sat between two weapons that emitted a chill.
Never did he imagine his request would be accepted by the Kingdom of Salauster. Previously, there was no offer that came to him and suddenly now he got a lucrative offer from the Kingdom of Salauster.
“Only one person has ever offered me this kind of offer, but he turned down my request. Now what I want comes by itself without me asking. However, why do I feel uncomfortable?” his mind churned and made the look of his face become sour.
He lives in a small area that deserves to be called a city. It had hundreds to thousands of soldiers ready to obey its orders, including some talented people who helped it.
The talents under his auspices were in front of him and listening to his murmur from earlier. They did not respond to his words because they were also confused by this situation.
One of them no longer kept quiet and said, “Master Draynir, why not just accept it? Your wish will be granted and in the future this place is more secure security. Although the status of the Master will be different, the Master will get more benefits if he receives it.”
“Yes, I know that for sure. Unfortunately, this situation is different than before. Plus, I sensed that there was a strong dark current moving in this region. I don't know what will happen later, but the defeat of the Kingdom of Arannor became the starting point of all changes,” said the middle-aged man named Draynir.
He can't just accept it. However, he did not have a proper reason to reject it so he only took a moment to find out the truth about the offer.
In the Kingdom of Sevaeni, the situation did not differ much from the Kingdom of Salauster. The King's decision to support the coalition against the Kingdom of Edarecia made the atmosphere of the kingdom tense and many movements occurred, especially the transfer of troops.
“It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. There is no way this kind of coalition will ever exist again. What do you think, Mister?” ask Sevande Rodrig.
“A chance once in a while but full of variables and dangers. I hope Your Majesty doesn't have much faith in King Voran. We don't know if he can be trusted or not. Moreover, events some time ago proved if he was an ambitious king,” said the old man with calculating eyes.
“Difficult indeed. However, are we just going to see the Kingdom of Edarecia getting stronger and having undeniable hegemony in this region, sir? I can't deny that this is indeed a very difficult choice with unimaginable consequences. To hold them I have to choose this.” Rodrig said it was resolute and determined.
“It is better that Your Majesty activates them as well in anticipation of unexpected events. We have to prepare everything and there should be no mistakes in the process. The main and most important thing is not to defeat them but to secure the power of the kingdom, Your Majesty.”
The old man put aside the coalition that Rodrig wanted to enter and he chose to make his kingdom safer and stronger compared to deploying the entire kingdom just to defeat the Kingdom of Edarecia.
Different from the Sevaeni Kingdom that adopted quite a defensive move, the Ellaydric Kingdom was more likely to unleash all of its power after obtaining a letter from the Edarecia Kingdom.
The young King could not accept the attitude of the Kingdom of Edarecia including the emissaries who came before him. He didn't like the way they asked him for things. His courage made the situation in the Kingdom of Eldric come to life but was filled with uncertainty.
Inside the royal palace, the king was faced with several problems, especially the problems that existed on the border between his kingdom and the Kingdom of Edarecia. After the refusal he had made, the situation at the border heated up. Luckily, there were some helpers who helped.
“Obviously we only have one choice, Your Majesty. We are cornered and in the position of a coin. No matter which side we choose, nothing is certain, perhaps even the kingdom could suffer a terrible catastrophe. Being waiting and passive is also not a wise choice for us.”
“True ... In the end we have to fight them and give full help to this coalition. Huf ... Just because of the destruction of one kingdom, the situation became like this. Luckily the Edarecia Kingdom did not focus their power on the border, otherwise ... I don't know what we're going to face!” The young King looked depressed after saying so.
News of friction between the two border troops spread and many knew about it, including Draynir. When he learned of the news, he immediately gathered his troops and made preparations.
Draynir felt that his opportunity for profit had arrived while receiving a great reputation. Not only did he prepare an army, he also sent some of his subordinates to inform the other Lords to gather.
“The big war is coming and it's the right time for me to make a big move. The Sevaeni Kingdom will definitely send someone to meet me and with this situation the peace in this place will be lost. The best moments to crawl to the top have arrived!” Draynir smiled big with this news coming.
There's no way he'd miss an opportunity like this. Draynir called out his connections and made preparations in large sizes.
Within its territory, the troops had moved and prepared a large amount of supplies. Their steps were like earth shocks, the atmosphere inside the fortress became more lively and lively as the soldiers moved to gather all supplies and supplies.
The news of the attack carried out by the Kingdom of Edarecia was heard by Voran. He didn't expect them to move so quickly. This sudden attack caught the negligence of the three kingdoms and caused some losses to one of the kingdoms.
Bernan Fasuk and Selek Valaunter immediately to the palace. Voran was already waiting for them with an anxious expression. The move he was trying to prepare was already underway but the surprise attack of the Edarecia Kingdom made the situation even more tense and hot.
Selek Valaunter looked at the anxious expression on Voran's face. The border has exploded in a fast time and everyone has different reactions, but it is clear that the border is in an urgent and bad situation.
“Increasing troops at the border is clearly the urgency. Valaunter can I trust you to bring half the army there and help Larsson and Veus? Work with them to defend the border,” Voran said as they both arrived.
In addition to asking Valaunter to go to the border, Voran also asked Fasuk to contact the two kingdoms as well as the Lords.
Larsson and Veus had left for the border a few days ago. They set out after a day of rest in the kingdom. They also led most of the troops that the kingdom had at the border, leaving only a small army.
Meanwhile, he himself prepared himself to head to the border. However, he decided to keep silent for one day before rushing to the border.
“My feelings are really fucked up right now. I have to fix this before I go there. Huft ... This is too sudden and very annoying!”
