“Torido.”
“Yes Master.”
Torido was extremely polite.
He had a cunning character with accurate judgement but was overwhelmed by Weed’s force. He remembered how Van Hawk couldn’t even fight back properly and didn’t dare talk with the normal arrogance of a noble.
“You don’t have anybody to lead.”
“My vampires didn’t come to this era but I still have the power to create them.”
“Where did you put your sharp teeth? Wander around at night and suck the blood of some soldiers to make them your subordinates.”
“I understand. Thank you.”
He decided to make the soldiers dreaming about home submit unconditionally by turning them into vampires.
“And the women in the city?”
“Yes. There are many who are young and pretty.”
Torido watched the faces passing by.
Turning pretty females in the Arpen Kingdom into vampires was absolutely forbidden. Usually he could only increase his subordinates during quests and hunting. He didn’t even get the chance to meet Prina who worked in a flower shop.
“Go catch women and turn them into vampires.”
“Isn’t that a bad thing?”
“Only if you are noticed.”
This wasn’t the Arpen Kingdom. The Embinyu Church also had a vampire queen as a follower. He would rather offer the fanatics and residents than the desert warriors.
“If you don’t win in this era then our army will be annihilated.”
Weed’s invading army faced increasingly fierce resistance.
The Mapon and Beiner Kingdoms placed military forces at the borders to form a defensive wall. Smoke rose from distant mountains as the army of other kingdoms were gathered.
“The Mapon Kingdom and Beiner Kingdom are both preparing for battle.”
Weed’s army was strong but there was a risk of it being wiped out if the kingdoms joined together to attack.
This was the warring period so the kingdoms had powerful armies. If this was in the future then the users would take much longer to obtain the power necessary to occupy these kingdoms.
“This is the warring period so they should have a deep grudge against each other. Did I aggravate their aggression?”
He briefly regretted damaging 50 cities!
“I started the fight so it can’t be helped. And I need to destroy the Mapon and Beiner Kingdoms to achieve the goal. Hestiger!”
“Yes!”
“I will give you 30,000 cavalry. Attack the Opus Castle and occupy the nearby area. Destroy the cities while avoiding the enemy as much as possible.”
“I will follow your command!”
Hestiger left to the east with 30,000 troops.
The strategy depended on the troops! That’s why he let Hestiger lead the troops towards the Beiner Kingdom.
In times of war, resources for strategies were too expensive. Maintaining it would require an enormous cost but they were constantly looting. Hestiger only took 30,000 troops to disturb the Beiner Kingdom.
“Now I won’t need to see that guy anymore. I feel relieved. Jebeker.”
“Yes!”
“You also have a similar command. Take 40,000 troops to the south. Go around and thoroughly crush the cities.”
“I will follow your words.”
40,000 troops left with a billowing of dust clouds. It had fallen by 70,000 troops but Weed’s army still contained 250,000 people.
