Chapter 346 - The Grand Meeting



"Here is the headquarter of the Drofis clan, and here is their main fortified territory," he lined the area he agreed upon with Olor for him to keep his dominion working. "And the rest will belong to us."

As he said that and left the map for everyone to see, everyone took a cold breath. "All these are ours to take?" Randy asked with disbelief. "Won\'t the Dorfis clan attack us?"

"How did you know about such a map?" Sara suddenly asked, and her tone expressed how much she believed his words.

"Just lucky encounter," he mysteriously answered, "the Dorfis clan just took a heavy blow from us and now they won\'t be able to launch any attacks soon. Despite that, these lands are filled with many strongholds of them."

He then started to lean on the map again, scattering many dots all over the area below the line. "These are roughly their forts, and they wouldn\'t dare to defend them for now at least. So the faster the better."

He then paused before watching the faces of everyone. Shock, disbelief, and excitement; these were all the emotions they all shared.

All except for Sara, who glanced directly at him with much doubt. "You mean…" Randy asked without daring to continue.

"All of this will be ours if we move fast to seize this golden chance, so…" he then turned to Amelia as he added, "you are responsible for gathering all the aerial forces we have right now. Summon Lily as well and send them to every single area that\'s away from these forts."

He then turned to glance at Omar and Randy, "you two will form two giant armies, and head towards these forts. Take them one by one and be sure to be quick to seize them."

"What if they retreated?" Omar asked, calm and wise per usual.

"Let them run, even if they managed to fortify the back line, we still have a great share of this tasty cake."

"True," Omar nodded before asking, "what about the resources? Each fort we conquered so far is filled with many resources!"

Arthur knew that each fort was filled to the brim with precious resources. He didn\'t answer Omar directly as he turned again to speak with Amelia. "Make Madly start making endless storage rings and distribute what\'s there among Omar and Randy."

"What about us?" Ron asked, as this plan didn\'t require him or his friends to participate in.

"The city needs to be guarded, and this heavy task will be upon you," he said before adding, "plus any request for reinforcements you are obliged to answer."

"Good," Ron nodded and the two others beside him nodded as well.

"As for the three of you," Arthur turned to glance at Guenin first. "You will come with me."

He had thought of a leader to his army of warriors inside his garden, and Guenin was the perfect choice for that. "As for you two, you need to keep building the city and make sure any needs for the army are answered."

"We will," Deem and Gor said in one breath.

"Why do I feel like you are going away?" Amelia asked, with a hunch of a woman. "I will go to another place to stop an army from coming here and salvage more resources."

He then paused before adding, "our time here has been shortened, so don\'t hesitate to do your utmost efforts before our time is up."

His last words made everyone silent. They glanced at him asking for more, but he didn\'t say any. "Now go, the earlier you move the better," he said before pointing to the map, "take this and copy it to many copies. Leave some here and the rest will be distributed on the two armies."

Deem took the map and nodded before he and the rest went away, except for Guenin, Amelia, and Sara.

"What\'s my role, lord?" Guenin asked, as he expected much from his lord.

And his lord didn\'t disappoint him.

"I will send you to a place where many warriors are gathered. Train them well and lead them outside the gates scattered in the world to seize more villages and towns."

Guenin\'s eyes shone brightly as he excitedly bowed to him. Arthur just smiled before putting his arm on his shoulder, and the next moment he was gone.

"You are going to send another hidden army to attack these lands?" Sara knew everything about these portals.

"We need to hasten things here," he said, and refrained from adding more. He needed many warriors to aid him in the upcoming hard battles, but he didn\'t tell her that. Not yet!

"when will you leave?" Amelia asked with faint redness over her sweet cheeks. The memory of hours ago was still fresh in her mind.

He smiled warmly to her before saying, "don\'t worry, soon all of this will be over and we will return home again," he lied, as he never intended to leave this world, or at least his city, to anyone.

"That\'s good to hear," she nodded before excusing herself and went off. She seemed distracted, as if Sara wasn\'t around. She would have preferred to lie for a bit in his arms.

"Are you going to leave here?" Sara asked the moment the two were alone.

"There is something else I want to talk with you about," his tone was serious and that look he gave her made her nervous. "S- Say then."

He silently glanced at her, adding more to her nervousness. This reaction of her made him quite sure she was there for the monster sealed in the statue. "You once promised me to turn my city into an empire," he finally said what he wanted to discuss with her.

And this made her, unintentionally, heave a sigh of relief.

"It\'s about that," she said.

"What do you think it was about?" he asked, enjoying this little game with her.

"N- Nothing," she stuttered, knowing she slipped her tongue here, "You want me to draw a road map for you? Despite you leaving here soon?"

"Don\'t worry about me, I will leave and let my trusted men lead the city for me," he didn\'t lie here, as he was now training Guenin, Deem, and Gor to be able to rule over this city, with Olor in the shadows to aid in times of distress.

"Ah, that\'s a relief then," she said, despite her tone being vacant of any relief regarding this arrangement.. "I will tell you the steps needed to establish an empire," she then leaned over the table as she started to say the conditions.
