Chapter 79: The Brittanian Empire's failure
Arc 2
Never-ending Dreams.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Asphodel and Lynx were having their Skirmish all the other kingdoms were setting their paces for the events happening and were ready to their plans to check.
While in the land of Brittania, the courthouse was filled with important members of the kingdoms as they were about to receive the unsettling message about their plan to annexe Lynx.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The courthouse was a big room nearly as big as the hall, it was the meeting ground of the chief ruler of the Land of Britannia. It was a place where the influential, rich and thoughtful often came to discuss different situations. There was proper freedom for anyone to visit.
But at the moment the council had the chief military staff of the country with the head of the armies and law enforcement department, Lucius Artorius. A man of extreme physique and wisdom was sitting wide and in deep thought at the extreme centre of the sitting arrangement.
Two soldiers stood right at the centre of the main speaker's stage, beside the dark wooden table, sat a man with his clutches.
"Sir Foal Zestus, shall we explain our report."
The soldier called to the man named Foal Zestus, an old man in 50's now, he did not seem like a person who could take the load of the country who was fighting 4 other kingdoms but this man alone was one of the biggest pain in the kingdoms neck during the revolution.
Those white hair showed his wisdom and his skills as he was once known as the greatest trader of his generation. Under him, the kingdom of Britannia was now the most economically capable kingdom amount the 5.
"Sure, let's hear your reports,"
The soldiers were hesitant in speaking the information but started speaking.
"In the recent offensive attack, Brittania suffered a huge loss as both of the captains of the naval fleet Edith Clarke and Commander of Naval Fleet Alexander Aubry were killed in batt-"
"--!!"
The expressions of all the people in the room got tense, particularly the officer of other military regiments who was shocked to hear the demise of the commander and captain of the biggest naval fleet.
"I knew this was a trap that spy lied about Asphodel ever trying to invade Lynx, they probably formed an alliance to trap and kill the Brittanian forces."
The debate about the loss had begun even before the report was completely delivered people in opposition to the attack had begun to raise their voices.
"Please keep quiet, whether you are wrong or right will be delivered after the report is finished."
Foal's voice had the room go silent within a second, his authority was visible in the courthouse.
Foal gave a slight nod to the soldier who then started to speak again.
"The information was correct, We intercepted a battle of Lynx and Asphodel at the port. By the time we had reached the port, Asphodel had already landed on Lynx soil, there was chaos everywhere."
"...."
The council was now thoroughly unconfused as to why the fleet actually lost if they hadn't been ambushed under a plan, there was no chance their fleet would ever lose.
"The commander and captain then agreed. They sent a part of the fleet to pressure the Asphodel forces and captured the port."
"It seems everything went according to plan till now. So, what did do to the captured Asphodel forces? " Lucius raised his voice for the first time just asking for confirmation that everything was actually done as was planned till this point.
"Yes, sir. All was according to the plan but after capturing the port Commander Alexander and Captain Clarke went for a meeting with Asphodel commander Yuu-"
"I am sorry everyone. I will take my leave." Lucius in a heavy tone stood up in his place had started walking towards the exit. everyone was a bit blown by Lucius's sudden reaction.
"Where are you going Lucius, you should hear the rest of the report," Foal called out to Lucius to stay and attend the complete meeting.
"I am sorry but I know the rest scenario. Commander Alexander announced a land invasion of Lynx with an alliance of the Asphodel forces. "
Foal surprised looked at the soldier and the soldier nodded in agreement with Lucius' words.
"That commander, Yuuka, he is too big a demon for them, idiots, to handle, they fell for his trap and got themselves killed. I am pretty sure they took the foreign army we bought for the attack and are working under him now." Lucius explained the situation point for point and all the other participants of the meeting looked surprised as soldiers just nodded in agreement to his every word.
"This is our failure, I am going to make sure this never happens again!"

Fun fact: Lucius's parents are still alive.
