585 Waiting game.
Without wasting another second, Prince Bryon began giving a detailed report of what had occurred in the first 12 hours of the war.
He narrated how the forces of the Tigeria Empire had easily captured almost all borders of the Synder Empire in such a short time, all thanks to the members of the Leagues that struck from within.
The Neutral Assassin organization had been working for the enemies all this while!
"I should have known." Cinder muttered in anger as the temperature of the room was shooting up.
On the surface, one would think that the Masked Man was taking in the talents from mostly the Synder Empire for monetary purposes. However, for an extremely powerful individual who had lived for centuries, money could in no way be his problem, as it didn't matter to him.
Was he gathering forces to overthrow him? That was impossible because even though all members of the League were powerful, they weren't enough to overthrow the empire.
Cinder had always thought that there was another motive for his actions, but he had never been able to see past the fog of mystery that shrouded the Masked man. That was until now!
With the participation of the members of the league in the attack on the border cities. It was now clear that he wasn't recruiting members only because of their talent, but also due to their great hatred and resentment toward the Synder Empire.
"When you already have an army to face your enemy, the next best thing is to take out important soldiers in the enemy's camp." Cinder let out a dangerous chuckle before his gaze returned to the councillors who were protecting themselves from the heat he was generating.
"Continue..." Cinder said as he reined his fiery aura.
Moving back to the map, only 5 border cities in the entire empire were still standing. However, their warp array links had been cut, making them sitting ducks that would eventually fall.
This raised the question. "What do we do? Attack?"
The four councillors turned to the emperor, but instead of a response, Cinder returned to his throne.
At that moment, an astral projection of Synder appeared, and immediately the councillors except Bryon went on one knee and bowed.
"Attacking would be foolish. You will only be sending our forces to their death." Synder said in a nonchalant tone as his gaze constantly moved between the 3 councillors.
"There is a reason they captured the border cities and didn't decide to push forward. They are turning the border cities into strongholds from which all their future operations would be carried. So instead of attacking them when all of their forces are still together, we wait till they spread out to conquer other cities." Synder's astral projection had an evil grin on his face.
...
Immediately the forces of the Tigeria Empire seized Coastville, they first started by neutralizing all members of the Ash corps and noble families by using mana-inhibiting collars.
After that, Sea lord (Name of Tigeria's councillors) Granick addressed the citizens about the invasion and laid out rules that they had to follow to make sure they didn't get in trouble.
Once that was completed, they began creating camps for their troops to settle in, before upgrading the defences of Coastville to make sure it couldn't be retaken easily.
To make sure nothing went wrong, soldiers of Tigeria were positioned at different points in the city to make sure actions that could hinder their progress were spotted on time. This made the inhabitants of Coastville tense as their relatively peaceful life had become filled with uncertainties.
...
At the city lord's house, Sea lord Granick, Tempestblade Seraphina as well as four other high-ranking generals of Tigeria, assigned to this part of the Synder Empire were discussing their next lines of action. n).0velb1n
According to the orders of Tidewalker IV, they were to remain on standby until all border cities in the empire had been captured by their forces and transformed into strongholds.
At this time, they had all been cut off from the Synder empire's warp array network, meaning that their fall was inevitable. That was why Granick, Seraphina and the four generals were looking at the best way to transport their troops to siege the city of Willowbrook
They had 2 options; the first was marching the troops straight to the next Willowbrook, but not only would that take a lot of time, it would leave them in the open for attacks.
The second option was to warp them to the desired location, but that would require setting up a teleportation array. The only problem was that the Synder empire had spent more on defences.
The range of the life sensory arrays that covered a small portion of the forest close to the city wall had increased. Also, there were high-level Ash corps constantly patrolling the area beyond the life sensory array's range.
"The range of teleportation artefacts won't be enough to cover the entire distance. A small special unit is needed to make the journey and set up a warp array that would bring over the array masters for the ultra-long distance warp arrays." Seraphina said with an expressionless face.
"We can gather a few people to carry out this mission." Sea lord Granick replied, but Seraphina immediately cut him short.
"I didn't mention the idea for someone else to do it. I and my team would be the ones to carry out the mission." Seraphina's eyes widened, and a grin appeared on her face as she spoke.
'What the fuck is wrong with her?' Granick and the four generals couldn't help but ask in their heads as they listened to her. She was speaking like a psychopath who was visualizing playing with the innards of her next victim, however, they managed to maintain their composure and act like nothing was wrong.
"I shall trouble you with this task." Granick thanked her for the second time that day.
After discussing the details of a few more things, Seraphina finally left causing the five of them to let out a sigh of relief and ask.
"Are they all like that?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
