City of Desire: Chapter 422 Encircled

Methum

 “Why waste time? He is going to reject it,” said Xander and I smiled.

“Because we are civilized people. We don’t want to fight when the job could be done with the words,” I replied.

I rode my skeleton horse ahead. The horde parted, for me, till I reached in front of it.

It is dangerous in the front; they could try to snipe at me. A few did in my past battles, but they wouldn’t succeed like those before they didn’t.

“Bring the glory to the Vris’alud,” commanded the man with the staff.

Immediately, the horde standing in front of the gates of Ashton Harbor begins to move.

It is a massive horde. Containing a million undead and it is moving toward the Port Midlet.

“It’s such a regret, that we couldn’t attack the Deepond,” said the armored man beside him.

The man with the staff didn’t say anything, but it's clear, that he is angr...

The guard opened the doors of the conference room seven, and I entered inside.

“Lord Silver,” they greeted. I nodded and sat down.

“What’s the update?” I asked.

“The imperial navy is chasing the scattered ships of the undead,” replied Cardin.

“What is the number of sunk ships?” I asked, while reading the file in front of me.

“Thirty-one. More might be sunk during the chase,” replied Cardin.

“This is the best news we coul...

“Fucking imperials!” cursed an old man, activating the Reinforced Ship and Absorb Explosions.

It was still enough as the cannonballs hit the ship, with wood flying everywhere.

On top of that, enormous waves are crashing against the ships hard. making it even harder to control.

The imperials weren’t supposed to attack them. There is no benefit to that.

Attacking them is making another enemy.

The door of the conference room opened and three people walked in, with a raven-haired half-elf at lead.

It is rare to see black-haired half-elves. It is not a natural hair color; it is likely he had inherited that from his human half.

“Lord Silver,” he greeted with a faint bow.

“Mr. Marysel, I hope the journey has been well?” I asked the man. “It had been my lord,” he replied, before sitting down.

Everyone is present, Stone, Cardin, Izalia. It...

“Silver is growing his army at alarming speed. Look at this information milord, these weapons, that merchant state providing him,” said General Silva as they turned to Greltheaven.

Everybody in the meeting turned serious.

Greltheaven’s rise had become serious enough, that they had added them in a list of threats.

“Finally, they are coming,” said the man with the staff, with joy all over his face.

He had just got the confirmation. They are sending the ships, filled with the hordes of undead and powerhouse.

Their numbers are big, enough for not only sweeping the three cities but also the entire region.

“The wait is nearly over,” said the armored man.

In a few weeks, when the time is right. They will send the horde; it shouldn’t ...

“Just keep your mouth shut and let me do all the talking,” said the handsome man beside me as the carriage stopped at the city hall.

He is Aubin Arledge, the fourth son of Count Arledge. One of the Emperor Inkav’s biggest allies.

It was supposed to be my job, I was to be the guardian of the legacy, but it all changed swiftly when Silver revealed his legacy to the Grade II and Amphitheater Class.

“Lord Silver,” said the handsome man in his thirties. “Lord Salazar,” I replied.

He is Artur Salazar, son Helen Salazar.

He seemed a little displeased. Likely because I didn’t stand up to him.

Immediately, the vibrant smile on my face disappeared, and I nearly shook with deep tiredness appearing in my eyes.

I closed my eyes, blocking every noise around me. Remembering the face of my child.

It’s his birthday today. He had already celebrated it yesterday, in Zenid.

The time in Oton is thirteen hours behind Zenid.

It made me happy that Josie and Heron were with him. He would have his family with him on his birthday.

I wish I didn’t have a fight today. Usually, I am lucky; I didn’t have any fights on this day, but today I am not.

She shook her head.

“It is her first seeing at such an opulent party. She is having a hard time controlling herself,” said Linda.

I heard the sound of surprises as the power of the legacy increased as Silver and Carla took a step into the light stairs.

I had doubts about my own and the insistent messages from a lot of powerful people and entities like Archmages City, had proved my doubts were right.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to answer any of their queries. Nor I would have, even if I could.

Soon, they will fill the five floors, where the girls will be waiting for them with their beautiful smiles.

I had spent a lot on them.

Their training, their beauty and they didn’t disappoint me.

From today, they will use the knowledge, those skills, they have learned.

“I want every detail of the tower. Every plan, every floor,” said the man with the staff.

“I have already instructed our people. You will have completed the information by the morning,” replied the armored man.

He had received the message from higher-ups, and it made him excited.

They are showing great interest in the legacy. More than before, which is good. The greater interest they show, the sooner, they send forces to attack. View Post

I was worried that it was going to be another cloudy day as it had been for the past three days, but it was not.

It is a sunny day, marking the end of winter.

It is a comfortably warm day, enough to sunbathe. Which is good. If it had been cloudy, the experience of the park wouldn’t have been as good as it will now be.
