Chapter 181

Jim was surprised as couldn’t find the whereabouts of three of his best warriors .

"What happened to them? Do any of you have any clue about their whereabouts? If they are killed where is their body? This thing is very puzzling . "

He shook his head, "No Idea, Boss . It is as if they have vanished from the world . No one found them leaving the camp as well . We suspect that they are most likely dead . However, Prince Hector has sent his Promised amount of gold coins just now . And there were 2 guys able to escape the massacre"

Jim nodded and smiled as he heard about Gold Coins, "Ok, no need to worry about them . Let me see the gold they have delivered . Good, more than required . Dealing with Prince Hector is quite good as he is generous . Feels so good that we can make a fortune out of that Count’s Misery . The same thing will happen to his town . This way I can avenge my brother . "

The subordinate nodded and spoke, "The most likely reason for their generousness is the new soaps that Prince and Duke Blackwolf have started selling after getting their hands on some recipes of Soaps from Count John . We can gain ground now that the Hell’s Playground mercenaries have backed off . "

Jim nodded, "Yes, lets go to start and make our preparations . "

John looked at the report and gravely spoke, "From now on we are treating every one of them as enemies which include the Royal family . Order all of our men to evacuate the Eastern port . Half of them would be sent to Aurora Island . Another half will come here at North-frontier Island . Kill anyone who tries to block your way . Everyone’s life is in danger . I guess that Baron Finally decided to take a side after hearing about King getting the Ballistas . Well, this is good for us as well . Its good that we already have the Aurora island as our naval base or else we would have been forced to clear north-east or invade the eastern port . Is there any news on the construction of North- Eastern port? Have you guys invaded it yet from the sea or are still waiting?"

Taylor nodded and spoke, "It has been started, Lord . Blake has already started preparing to connect Aurora Island and North-frontier City . We are contemplating the name of that Town . It’s north of Eastern port, we are only waiting for your permission to start clearing the forest and connect it with North-frontier . We thought that it would be problematic if we connected it already with our City as people would get to know our secret . As for our men I have already ordered them to leave the Eastern port . I will immediately relay the other orders as well . "

John spoke gravely with an angered tone as he was keeping his anger in check as he fully read the report about the massacre, "Hmm . . . The city name will be Winter City as we are constructing it in Winter . Yes, call that Port, winter port as well . As for clearing the forest? Start doing it without getting anyone’s attention . We at least need a secret military road as they will most likely target us via the port blockade after this incident . You would most likely hear the king’s participation in the war in a day or two . This time we will start making raids on the Mercenaries . I am quite pissed this time around . I will personally be taking part in raids from now on . Since they are openly harboring Mercenaries in their Domain then they should expect our invasion as well . I am quite fed up with all these mercenaries buzzing around every day . We will start using our rifles after the King decides to declare war against me . That’s the time I intend to reveal our rifles and cannons to fuck all of them up . From the looks of it, it seems that they think they are hot shit targeting unarmed villagers, huh? This time they will certainly see something hot and This time it will be a bloodbath of unproportioned measures . A bloodbath of our enemies . "

Taylor shivered as he sensed John’s killing intent which leaked without any restraint as he read the report . He shivered as he heard John’s plan, He asked cautiously, "Lord, what about the elf Ambassadors? I think we should hide the current circumstances from them . "

Looking at the gravity of the situation John ordered and gave him a letter, "It’s okay, report the news to them, we don’t need to hide anything . After we are connected to Winter city we will escort them out of Aelius Kingdom . Don’t forget to give this letter of mine to Blake . "

Taylor cautiously asked John, "Lord, would it be ok for you to take charge of the army? What if something happens to you? The whole army will crumble without you . You should think calmly Milord, our anger will be used against us if we fall for their bait . "

John smiled and spoke with dead cold eyes which depicted killing intent, "You don’t need to worry . I am very calm, you see . Calm enough to plan a full massacre of my enemies . Master Vlad has already approved of my strength rivaling him . Additionally, I have a lot of surprises waiting for my enemies . As a Lord, I can’t be standing back and watch my men die when they are fighting in the frontlines . I have a trump card now . I have already mastered Space magic during these days when I was training alone . I never planned to reveal it but I guess circumstances force you . Our library came in quite handy to develop my Space magic . "

Taylor was surprised after hearing this revelation from John and thought, ’It seems lord is quite angry after this massacre . Well, it’s good that we have already prepared measures against the moves of the Royal family and other dukes . ’

Taylor nodded and didn’t disagree as he didn’t want to anger John, "Okay Lord, I will be following your orders . "

John reminded him before he left, "Yes, increase the production of Cannons and rifles . Meanwhile, increase the order for water boosters for our ships from Researcher Will’s Company . I want all of our 87 ships to be fitted with those boosters . And tell Tornwall to immediately start mass production of steam engines after they are produced . This time they will see the real power of industrialization, a war machine . The ships fitted with steam engines will show the real power of battleships . "

Taylor reminded him about the guy who saved the villager, "Sir, there is one particular matter about that guy who we found unconscious at the border . "

John nodded as he almost forgot about the guy, "Yes, I read about him, Bring him in North-frontier City for Treatment . I will personally look at this case later on . Try to treat him with available doctors right now . It is very rare to find such men who are willing to fight for their morals . Also, give this letter to the scout who delivered the letter . Don’t forget to tip as he informed us such critical information in such a short time . "

****

Hearing about this thing was the last that he wanted to hear right now, Luke sighed as he read the report and wrote a letter, "Hand this letter over to his majesty, king Lionheart . "

"I hope I can survive this ordeal . I wonder who did this mischief? King? Fjord? or the Radiant Church? or Count John himself?"

Luke muttered, "Nah, it can’t be that Count since it was his men who reacted and headed out angrily . This will be big if there are drastic actions taken by that count . "

Luke never thought about Prince Hector who was lying low for such a long time was the culprit behind this incident .

’Should I already leave this place? Nah, or that king will call me a traitor . ’ Luke sighed and headed off for his office at the square .
