VOLUME 5: CHAPTER 7

While the Princess and her men were searching for the flower in the Endless Forest, Lark continued with the management of his territory. Each morning, he would read through piles of documents in his office, all the while listening to the reports of his subordinates. 

“The Central Market’s doing extremely well despite being opened only for a week,” reported Gaston. “Aside from wheat, eggs, animal skin, meat and fish, we’ve also st...

“Princess, maybe it’ll be better if we tell the truth to the Lord?” said Parzival.

“No.” The Princess shook her head. “Didn’t Uncle Carlos tell us what would happen if the state of the King’s health is revealed to the public?”

General Carlos, the retired General and close friend of His Majesty, strictly told them to keep this secret under wraps. He was afraid that the moment the power-hungry nobles lea...

Lark issued a recruitment notice for the restoration of the Western Land. At the Central Plaza, where hundreds of people pass by daily, a written notice was pinned on the Board and several workers started actively recruiting those without a job. 

After the restoration of the Northern Land showed results through the current abundant harvest, people were eager to join in the next project. Several people started signing up ...

The next day, Lark gathered the officials of Blackstone Town inside the Mansion. Several people sat inside a room. A medium-sized map of the region was plastered on the wall. 

Lark looked at all the people gathered here today. 

The officer in-charge of the Southern District, including the livestock and the umami salts – Pico. 

The Head Mason of Blackstone Town and the officer in-charge of the East...

After meeting with Big Mona, Lark immediately went towards the smithy. The place was easy to find, since it was the only smithy in that area. Although it was already dusk, the sound of hammer striking iron resounded in the street. Lark followed it and arrived at a rundown bungalow. From the windows, Lark could see a muscular old man next to the furnace. 

Lark knocked on the door. After several seconds, there was no reply...

When night came, Lark’s group camped in the middle of the forest. His soldiers pitched tents and made campfire. They started grilling the meat they bought from the Capital. 

To the sheltered Princess, this was an entirely new experience. This was the first time she would be sleeping outside – although she’d been given the free space in the third cart as her own private quarters. It was not much, but she knew she st...

After the awarding ceremony, the soldiers of the Coalition Army were given two gold coins each, an amount enough for them to live without working for a year or two. The family of the soldiers who perished in battle were given three gold coins and each of them were posthumously given a bronze medal for sacrificing their lives for the sake of the Kingdom. 

It wasn’t much, but the rewards were enough to appease the return...

Kingdom's Map

I made this myself using a free tool in the internet (thus lack of roads and other awesome stuffs). There may be very small inconsistencies with the distance and direction, but it should be accurate most of the time. 

There are spoilers in this map (cities and places that haven't been introduced yet). You can read at your own risk.

Inside his private room in the coliseum, he watched with bored eyes as the warriors in the arena fought to their deaths. Hundreds of spectators cheered, their stomping feet making the ground rumble. The scent of blood and sweat permeated the air as the spectators frenziedly urged the warriors to kill each other.&n...

Arzen Boris watched with cold eyes as dwarven iron shells rained down the enemy camp. The imperial army located on the hills was bombarded with iron shells one after another, not giving the enemies a chance to even retaliate. The luckier ones who managed to escape the camp found themselves surrounded by the Second Army, only to be killed on sight, no questions asked.

General Alvaren couldn’t believe what was happening. Not only did the Kingdom manage to cross over the bottomless ravine and enter the city, they were also pushing back the imperial soldiers despite the difference in numbers. The Empire had twice the number of soldiers. Why couldn’t they push these bastards back?

As he was lost in his thoughts, a sword came slashing towards his direction, aiming at his neck. General Alva...

Two weeks passed by uneventfully. It seemed that defeating the Empire’s Trump card – the Magic Knights – had a far greater impact than Lark initially thought. The scouts sent several reports of movements from the Empire, but it was apparent from the way they positioned their army at the major paths to the southeast that they were simply trying to block all forms of supplies from reaching the Kingdom’s army stationed in Akash City. Even...

A day had passed. 

Inside his room in Yorkshaire City, General Rizel read through the reports of his vassals. From weapons development, the supplies line, training of the soldiers, reconnaissance, and even small incidences like brawls and tavern fights – everything were reported to him. 

There were officers designated to each key position in his army, but General Rizel always made sure to look through the r...

General Alvaren’s eyes momentarily shook as thousands of cavalries moved out of the city. The ground rumbled as horses neighed and armors clanked. The Magic Knights and the Blackstone Knights were still in a deadlock, but the living suits of armor were slowly gaining the upper hand. 

The General glared at Lark. “Shitty brat.”

With an earth-shattering force, he struck Lark once again with the glaive. But to General Alvare...

Unmasked hostility and bloodlust filled the air as the Alvaren Army glared at Lark and the Blackstone Knights. The memories of arrows and severing discs taking away the lives of their comrades were still fresh within the Magic Knights’ minds. Finally, they’d found themselves an outlet for their boiling rage. 

When the two armies were only a short distance away from each other, General Alvaren roared, “Kill the foo...

After chasing after the trails of the Kingdom’s soldiers, the Alvaren Army finally arrived at Akash City. Half a thousand knights clad in shining plate armor halted a good distance away from the city. Near enough to see the enemies’ movements, far enough to evade arrows. 

The bells in Akash City rang, the bridge was retracted and the gates were shut. Over a hundred archers filled the battlements, their arrows nocked...

Lui Marcus sat near the front of the long table, between the Sword Saint and the Baron. Unlike the other officers of the army who looked well-rested, he hardly slept last night. He still had several questions regarding the identity of his brother and the so-ca...

I’ve reread the previous chapters since I have my doubts. It seems that I’ve been repeatedly mistaking the order of the armies of the Kingdom. 

First Army – The Baron’s 

Second Army – Heir of House Boris

Third Army – Lark Marcus

My only excuse is I’m writing part-time and tend to forget some things. Haha. My apologies.

The sleeping soldiers were woken up in the middle of the night and were ordered to march eastward, to the opposite direction of their initial route. 

Numerous speculations on why they were suddenly ordered to move out spread among the troops.

There were still traces of battle here and there, and the corpses were still in place. He looked at the corpses of the innoc...

Every day was filled with blood and tension as small skirmishes broke out here and there. Fortunately, the enemy did not launch an all-out assault against Akash City, probably wary of the fact that the Kingdom managed to capture the place in a mere day....

Inside his room, Lark received Anandra’s report. He frowned, dismayed at himself at the fact that he failed to immediately notice the undulations of mana from the nearby forest during the fight. He would have noticed it under normal circumstances, but his talk with the leader of the supplies team regarding the fall of the Magic Empire made him too preoccupied with his thoughts. By ...

Eighty-five people.

After taking over the City of Akash, Lark immediately ordered the Blackstone Knights to dig a wide trench around the city, particularly deeper at the place where the gate was situated. A wooden drawbridge was also being made, which could be easily pulled back during a siege.

Lark had finished inspecting the walls and judged them to be adequate enough to fend off attacks from your regular army. Fortifying it even further would...
