Chapter 52: Chapter 52

"My highness! My highness! Emergency news from Jaridge!" A messenger from the army shouted and interrupted an important meeting between the king and the counselors and ministers.

"Be ease. What is so important message that they sent you to interrupt and bring it to us now?" Liebert, the second, was curious as he told no one to come and interrupt this meeting.

"M…my king, the blood fangs are now sieging and attacking at Jaridge also. The clans have raised their banners again, and every clan is now under one flag! Jaridge asks help! They also warn if the army moves towards Jaridge that they would be careful as there can be ambushes from the ogre's to hinder their movements!" The messenger shouted out loudly and started to capture his breath.

"You did well when you brought the message here. It would need much if courage from you. You are free to leave now and go and take a break to capture your breath." Liebert said, and the messenger saluted and took his leave as he was the one who pulled the short stick this time and was made to deliver the message.

It was a nerve-racking situation to the messenger, and he was so stressed out, but now he was glad that the king didn't get angry, and he was dismissed.

"As you all probably heard, our alliance with blood fangs has ended once again, and we are in a war now again! Shall we tolerate this again! As we left them a chance to cooperate and live peacefully with us! And this is how they honor our deal!

Trevon, how quickly can you get the army to march and be ready? As we need to…." Liebert was saying before another messenger came in and shouted.

"My king! There are sightings of blood fangs around Fahson and the villages around it! Some of the villages have already been razed to the ground, and the local militia is asking help from the capital!" The messenger said and started to wait for the order to leave.

"You are free to go now," Liebert said and started to rack his brains while the messenger took his leave.

"So the blood fangs had us fooled this time. They won for now.

Trevon, do we have the resources. Or no, we have to have resources to send at least one legion there! Also, I will pay you to hire as many adventures as you can with that legion and send them to Fahson as even when it is a distraction we cannot let it slip and slide this off that easily. We don't know how many of them are there!" Liebert said and sat down to the throne.

"Of course, my king, I will send the scouts ahead to scout both paths for the army now!" Trevon said and took the messenger tool, and he did send a message to his commanders, and they accepted the orders.

"My king is now done and to answer your previous question. We originally could have started to move towards Jaridge tomorrow, but now I guess it will be postponed at least with two days as I need to organize the army again and think which legion or division I would send towards Fahson." Trevon said and started to wait for his King's orders.

"Try to move as quickly as possible as if we have some crazy cultist now with a beast army that is sacrificing humans to her God, and now the blood fangs are also allied with her. I don't know how long Jaridge could hold one even when our elite militia is there.

For now, let's continue the meeting and get back to where we previously were on." Liebert said and took control of the situation again to his hands.

^Willards and Felice's house^

Willard and Levin had already left from the house, and now their date was unknown for a while, but still, Jaana and Felice tried to keep the mood up as long as they weren't summoned to work.

"Why do you have a scar on your head? Isn't your father strong enough to protect you? Blaah! As I knew, my father was the strongest!" Rolfe tried to annoy Elvire, but he just had to pick up the worst subject to do it, and suddenly, he did find that there was a dagger on his throat.

"Don't say anything bad about my father? Do you understand?" Elvire said, and Rolfe was already on the verge of crying before Jaana stopped in and picked Elvire up, and Rolfe took this as an opportunity and did run away.

"What we talked about this? Violence won't solve anything, and it will create more troubles for you, my dear. So you need to calm down and not to take the dagger and threaten anyone with it when they say something bad, okay?" Jaana said very angrily towards Elvire as, after the slingshot episode, they already did talk about this with her.

"Felice I apologize for my daughter's behavior, for now, I'm sorry about it," Jaana said and hinted towards Elvire that she should also say something.

"Aunt Felice, I'm sorry for what I did," Elvire said while looking down front the shame.

"It's nothing at all as that boy deserved that a long time ago as he is begging to be beaten up and he won't survive with that attitude that long especially with his views of woman," Felice said and assumes that everything was alright and Elvire didn't do anything wrong and that Felice supported the idea and was happy that her son took a beating and she hopes that he also learned something from it.
