I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 137: Joining the Front
"Truely, as I thought, the trip was not worth the huge risk. Especially after learning of King Kwon's stingy nature, my mother was wasting her time asking him for help." Mavis has a headache when thinking about this condition. Standing outside the balcony of his room, he gazed towards the distance.
According to what Wed had reported coming to pick up the queen, Mavis had little understanding of the number of soldiers sent by her grandfather. After learning that the overall number of ordinary soldiers sent was in the range of five thousand, along with some experts with blue plans, Mavis was out of words. The old man really had the heart to drive the only daughter away with just such a small army.
After that, some time passed and suddenly a familiar figure appeared from above and fell on the balcony of the room in a perfect position. The figure was none other than Becca, he came and then took a half- prostrate position in front of Mavis.
"Greetings, Sir."
"How, did you get any news about my father?" Mavis.
"Yes, Sir. King Cornelius along with his great army had left the capital. According to the information I got from one of the soldiers, the party had to go to the great fortress in the south, where Prince Sulton ruled" Becca said.
In this raid there are three combined focus of the kingdom that united to destroy the Kingdom of Srivijaya. The union consisted of the armies of the Mori Kingdom, the Ephraim Kingdom, and the Jianheeng Kingdom. Two of the three were in the south of the kingdom, the Kingdoms of Mori and Ephraim. While the Jianheeng Kingdom was in the northwestern part of the kingdom.
Given the distance from the Jianheeng kingdom to the capital of the Srivijaya Kingdom is very far, it must take a detour because it passes through other small kingdoms allied with the Srivijaya Kingdom such as the Tori Kingdom and the Brahma Kingdom, the Jianheeng Kingdom army was already certain that it would not move directly to attack. Their troops must have gone and joined the south, whether it was in the Kingdom of Mori or the Kingdom of Ephraim.
King Cornelius had taken this into account, so he focused on moving towards the fortress in the south of the kingdom to create a defense system. The entire force was deployed, numbering in the tens of thousands of troops, plus the adventurers who volunteered to help the king defend this kingdom, going together towards the fortress in the south. Including a small elite force of about a thousand people, along with five adventurers with red plans! The troops were aid coming from the northern continent, the eighth level affiliated kingdom, the Baratajaya Kingdom.
This happened because, beyond his expectations, Mavis initially thought that the king would focus on making defenses in the royal capital. However, it turned one hundred and eighty degrees, the king bravely advanced to the vanguard of defense to fight.
Mavis was actually amazed and saluted, even though her father already knew the limits that this war would be very difficult to win, but he was not daunted though. The king remained determined to come forward to fight with his entire army on the upcoming battlefield. Only, he did not want the king to be in danger, however he was still the father in this world, Mavis did not want to lose the figure of his parents.
"Alright, since my father has left, there should already be no one who can restrict me from leaving." Mavis nodded before finally going back inside her room. Previously Mavis could only remain silent in the mansion because the king forbade her to roam during this difficult time. However, now no one else could lock him up.
Immediately, after Mavis entered her room several figures emerged from the black smoke billowing from underground. Then as soon as they finished taking a form on the surface, all of them immediately took a half-kowning position, greeting the reverence to the master.
"Prepare, some of us will return to the south." Mavis said as she spread her gaze. After a few seconds, he decided something, and continued, "Wed will return to the capital with the queen. For Akio, Darius, and Giraldo, the three of you will stay here to help Wed protect the capital. While the others will come with me go to the battlefield."
"Good, Sir." Although in fact the three shadow creatures had a longing to fight with their master, be it Akio, Darius, and Giraldo, none of the three had any doubts and objections to the arrangements given by his master.
"We are leaving" said Mavis with a sigh on her face.
