Bab 176: Chapter 176. Calm Before The Storm
Dragon King's Harem Chapter 176. Calm Before The Storm
The two suns shyly revealed themselves on the horizon. Their dim light turned the dark sky above Firestone Fortress lighter. A few clouds in the sky showed how bright the day was. The breeze blew gently And the meadows swayed beautifully as if that sight was no different from a classic painting that showed extraordinary peace. The peace before the storm.
But what was behind all that, like hot lava that moved fiercely in the bowels of the earth and was ready to destroy everything on it. The dragon soldiers prepared themselves and their weapons in the barracks. The beast tamers prepared the Wyverns and other beasts. They feed those beasts and put on their armors.
Away from the fortress, the Minotaurs also prepared themselves. But instead of feeding their beasts, they let them starve so the war would turn into those beasts' feast. That was a good tactic since starvation would make those beasts more fierce. But also a bad tactic since hungry beasts usually had low Mana points which meant they would only depend on their brute strength.
The Minotaur camp also showed more activity this time. Even if they covered it up, it was clear that their movements were different from usual.
While the Orcs had also entered the cave an hour ago Dan was marching towards here. We had confirmed that Uraugh was with them. In other words, my clash with both kings would be inevitable. We knew this from the Spy Worms.
At Firestone Fortress, I was already in the meeting room with General Guillotine and Eir. Instead of sitting, all of us stood in front of the table. Our eyes were fixed on the crystal in front of us which showed the images from the Spy Worms' investigation results. Our seriousness was clear on our faces since the war would soon occur in a few hours.
While Evelina had joined the healer's group since she woke up. She would be responsible for leading them during the war.
"Have you prepared my backup, General?" I asked.
My eyes moved from the hologram to the map, determining my best route. Of course, I meant the elite soldiers to face the Minotaur King.
Instead of my usual uniform, I wore hunter's clothes. Yes, it was a shame that even if I knew the enemy's uniform, I couldn't disguise myself as one of them due to the significant body difference. So even if I hid my horns with Al's Camouflage tonic it wouldn't help.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I have also prepared several healers to heal your wounds And some Wyverns to take you. They will be waiting for you in the west tower And will fly to your place as soon as they see your sign," he replied.
With a heavy heart, yesterday, I asked General Guillotine to prepare reinforcement for me to prevent the worst. It was kinda hurting my pride but the Minotaur King could have a sneaky trick we didn't know about. The general and others also agreed with the same reasoning.
I asked them to wait somewhere far away since our fight would require a large area. If they got too close, they would die for sure. But as long as he did not use the trick and was still the same as in my memory, I was sure of my victory.
"Good," I said. "Then what about the other preparations?"
"All done, Your Majesty. Our strongest soldiers are already hiding in the fake caves. They are ready to throw the elemental changer potion and their strongest fire skills. The soldiers are ready in their positions And waiting for my orders. So are the Wyverns and the beasts, " he replied.
"Concentrate on killing Mamothath and the Giant first once they appear. Don't let them get too close to the fortress," I ordered. Although the fortress was protected by the Magic Barrier, those beasts' strength wasn't a joke.
"I understand, Your Majesty," replied the General Guillotine, bowing politely.
I turned to Eir.
"How about you, Eir? Are you ready?" He wore my uniform and fake horns. Since this plan just popped up yesterday, Eir could only use the prop made of broken monster's horns strapped to his head. It was a bit messy but the hood covered his head just fine. Likewise with his hair.
"Uh, ready or not. I don't think I have any other choice. I just hope the horns don't fall before you make it," Eir said with a cringe. His hands kept touching the fake black horns above his head since he wasn't used to it.
"It won't fall, Sir Eiron. I've tied it tightly. After all, you just need to stand, no need to make much movement," General Guillotine reassured.
"To be honest, it looks like the original From afar. Although the shape is a little weird," I said. Its curvature was different from mine and although from a distance it looked like a real one, once the people got closer everyone realized it was just a prop.
"But as long as I can take care of that Minotaur king quickly, it won't be a problem," I added.
"Those should be enough to outwit the enemy. Besides, I won't let anyone approach you, Sir Eiron," said General Guillotine. A tap landed on Eir's shoulder.
"Don't worry," he continued with a smile.
"I agree. Just act like me," I said.
"I will do my best, Your Majesty," replied Eir.
"Then shall we wait for their attack?" asked General Guillotine.
A smirk appeared on my lips.
"Yes. It will start when their first tunnel reaches our hole. Also..." I turned to the general.
"Don't forget what I said about the beasts," I reminded him.
"I understand, Your Majesty," replied the general.
"Right." An exhale out of my mouth as I canceled the crystal.
"We shall move out now. They should arrive at any time," I said.
After answering me with a bow, they left in a hurry.
Once they left, my eyes turned to the closed stone door.
"Today is going to be a long day..." I muttered.
Then I pointed my hand to the side and opened my portal to the empty cave near the enemy's camp.
"Let the war begin..." And I walked into it.
