Very soon, Irwin’s letter reached John via the messenger,

John laughed as he looked at the letter with humor which was offering him a position which was equal to General Irwin by King Lionheart for betraying himself .

John burned the letter with fire magic which was seen by everyone, He looked at the messenger and spoke, "I guess, these guys only understand power, anyway, you got the answer, right? Tell your general that he should stop with his petty games and start already I am already bored with all the war rhetoric . "

The messenger saw John in astonishment because he was fairly certain that General Anak would certainly accept the offer or at least be moved by it and give the signal if he accepted the proposal since he would be made a lord by his majesty and given a fief equal to a count . However, John immediately burned it after reading it once without bothering anymore .

The messenger looked at Anak and thought, ’It seems this General won’t move with money or power . I guess he has other motivations when he is fighting us . ’

Arlen smiled as he looked at the letter, he thought, ’Fools . They want Count John to betray himself? hahaha, now this is hilarious . I am sure everyone at the Administrative palace would be having a laugh if they hear this . I guess having a mask has its own perks . ’

John roared to his men as soon as the Messenger left, "I am sure all of you are ready, today many of us may die but I want to make sure we die protecting our beliefs . protecting our land and protecting the ones we love while making sure that we take 100 of enemies down when they claim one . Today is the day, which will see the creation of a new kingdom . The Sky Kingdom, which will be headed by King John, he will take the name Sky, John Sky . Sky will be the limit for us and also show our ambitions . Today we will either die protecting our land or carve out a new kingdom if we survive it . "

The messenger looked at John with incredulity as he heard John who speaking on a sound stone .

"I wonder what were those new toys instead of Ballistas? Who knows . It seems don’t care about their lives as this General is speaking such a sinning speech . "

There was big cheer from the whole castle as they heard John . Most of the people had immense anger against the Royal family for Deliberately targeting the NF domain but didn’t say anything for a long time . The Army at the borders only angered them more as the Royal army didn’t do anything to the mercenaries .

One of the captains spoke, "At long last, Lord is going to take a stand . "

"Yup, since the general said it now after reaching this point, he has the approval from Lord . "

While Irwin and the army on the other side were looking at the Souther Castle with immense anger . It was as if they said something which was fully sinful .

Johnson looked at the Castle with shock as he heard the speech, "What is he planning now after speaking this suddenly? do they want to die early?"

Looking at the Messengers face, Luke understood that their plan to recruit him didn’t work . Irwin looked at Anak and thought, ’It seems they have shed all the pretenses of polite talk . Very well, I will make sure their arrogance dies with this speech today itself . ’

Irwin thought as he looked at the letter, ’I wonder what is motivating him to fight us this resolutely or has the count given him bigger benefits? Most of the people would have accepted this deal from the royal family . ’

Irwin had a frustrating expression as he spoke, "Such a hassle, it would have been an easy battle if that General had accepted this offer . I guess we will have to start moving . Come, Johnson, We are moving . I hope you can immediately attack them from the sides when we engage them . Such a small count and he dares try to secede? Even the Dukes would think a 1000 times before speaking such bullshit . If that count and this General get in my hand then I will make sure he suffers a fate worse than hell . "

Currently, the letter which was flowing in the ocean had finally reached the port near Laguna city . Looking at the bottle, one of the sailors at the port decided to pick it up .

"Hmm . . . what is this? This bottle looks quite expensive . Let’s see what is in it . "

He opened the bottle and saw that there a letter which seemed like a diary note by someone, "Hmm . . . I can’t recognize this language . Maybe I should ask someone at laguna about this . "

Looking at the armies moving towards the southern castle, John ordered his 7,000 men,

"I hope all of you are ready, today is the day this world will witness the real firepower of Sky Kingdom and the consequences of provoking us . I am sure all of you are waiting to show the real firepower of the Sky Kingdom to the whole world . "

John continued as he looked at his army which was full of people from various species, "Fire the cannons as soon as they reach 1-mile mark where they can’t run nor can they invade . Make this battlefield a hell for them . Bringing armies over here itself was a nail in the coffin for them . "

Irwin smiled as he spoke, "That General is in for a surprise when he witnesses the real power and range of our ballistas . I am sure he will be regretting rejected our offer and making such a bold claim . I heard his domain has a lot of species . "

Irwin’s subordinate answered, "Yes, Milord . That is true . "

Irwin had a cruel smile as he ordered immediately, "Now this would be fun . Okay, we don’t need to keep a soldier of theirs alive . While you guys can do what you want with other species apart from humans who are loyal to the crown . As far as humans are concerned, kill anyone who resists after we invade . This Domain will pay for supporting the insolence of Count John . Our spies this time would come in handy . "

Irwin’s army loudly cheered as they heard his speech and Warcry .

"Kill those traitors . No mercy to these traitors . "

At Dolores,

Prince Hector and Duke Norman got a report from a scout, he spoke hurriedly as he narrated the story, "Milord, Lord Irwin has started his invasion since Count John has decided to resist bitterly . "

Hector smiled as he heard the report, "Looks like this is our chance . What do you think Duke, Norman?"

Duke Norman nodded and answered, "Yes, we need to move as well . We will be attacking them at their western front . From what I know, there are only two complete rookies heading the western castle of North-frontier City . One of them is a kid called Amber and the other is Marsh . It seems Jay is in the city as we got confirmed info from our sources . "

Alistair nodded and answered, "If my guess is correct then Jay is most likely in the city to control the internal situation if the spies start to act . I think we should wait if we are really going to attack count John . We should at least wait and then act or else who knows what pitfall we may suffer because of that cunning count . I am sure all of you still remember the massacre of all the mercenaries and the guards at the mercenary camp . We shouldn’t let anger cloud our judgment . "

Duke Norman was moved after hearing Alistair and thought about the impending crisis he could face if he loses all of his men, not to mention the displeasure of lords on losing so many men, "Yes, we will go with Alistair’s suggestion . We should wait before we strike . "

He thought, ’I can’t risk the ire of Lords if they lose their men meanwhile the others are just waiting for my failure not to mention they have interests connected to North-frontier domain . ’

"Tch . " Antonio sounded as he heard Alistair’s suggestion .

Antonio smiled and remarked wanting to counter Alistair, "What if we lose our only chance to attack when they are vulnerable? I am sure they are already facing the attacks of Violent beasts as winter has already started . We won’t get a better chance in the future if they stabilize . Alistair, would you take the responsibility if we lose this chance . "

Alistair straightforwardly smiled and answered, "Nope, however, would you take the responsibility if our army is erased just like those mercenaries when they provoked Count John? Who knows they may even invade Dolores if they are angry . I am sure Duke Norman and Prince would make a lot of enemies if they take a rash decision because of your lack of foresight . The nobles are already suspicious if we can win it after hearing the previous battle results . As far as my opinion is concerned, this is just my suggestion, I am not a lord nor am I forcing my suggestion and conclusions on anyone over here so it is your decision in the end . "

Prince Hector ear’s pierced as he heard Alistair while he couldn’t ignore Alistair’s warning as he already knew that he was duped by Charlie big-time previously when he ignored Alistair’s warning .

Antonio was red in ears as he heard Alistair who was talking in a big tone, Just before he was going to refute, Prince Hector said with a resolute tone, "We will not attack them with our full army, we will attack them with 30 percent of our army and act as the battle goes . "

Alistair sighed as he lost all the hope in Prince Hector and with a resolute face he thought, ’I guess I will still be a slave in his eyes . I guess, only the previous battle result scared him enough that he has decided to hold back this time around . However, if we attack them, they would most likely invade us . Well, it is this Bufoon Baron’s loss for his arrogance . I already gave them a hint, in the end, it’s their choice . My only duty is to protect the Prince . ’

Alistair smiled as he looked at the meeting without saying anything .

Duke Norman was in his thoughts as he thought that this was a better decision as well . He thought, ’Well, that count needs to be taken care of anyway . I guess this is a safer choice . ’

Antonio smiled as he thought that Prince Hector was giving him face as he heard his suggestion .

’In the end, you are still a slave . ’
