Chapter 97: (2)


    At the moment when Kaiyan went to meet the Vyraxar territorial army, the Armis territorial army had already crossed the boundaries of Markain.


    The Armis territorial army numbered over ten thousand troops in total. Compared to the Markain territorial army, which had barely over five hundred soldiers, this number was beyond imagination.


    Hahaha! Those foolish Markain fools!


    Haha Thats right.


    As the mboyantly armored Armis count burst intoughter at the forefront, the knights around him awkwardly followed suit, ncing around cautiously.


    Count Armis, for some reason, looked at his younger brother, Karian, who was in their midst, as if he were annoyed.


    Karian, its truly unfortunate to lose a son, but must you be so obvious to the knights around you?


    In response to Count Armis reproach, Karian briefly nced at him and then lowered his head.


    I will be more careful.


    Hahaha! Good! If we can take revenge for the death of your son, isnt that enough? Ill let you lead the charge, so make those Markain fools surrender properly!


    I understand.


    Turning away, Karian shot a red-eyed re at the Count Armis, who wasughing, as if he were looking at his nemesis. However, Count Armis remained oblivious to this fact and moved toward Markain Castle, encouraging his soldiers.


    When the Armis army had advanced about three hours with the Perryan Forest on their side, they could finally see Markain Castle in the distance.


    The small Markain Castle, which appeared shabby and even crudepared to the enormous Armis Castle.


    Upon gazing at the castle, Count Armis burst intoughter.


    Hahaha! Theyve set up soldiers thinking they can stop me like that! Sir Verane!


    In response to the Count Armis call, Sir Verane, who was in charge of the Armis territorial army, stepped forward.


    Yes, my lord!


    How much time do you need to capture that pathetic castle?


    Sir Karians elite unit will be at the forefront, so I can capture the castle in just one hour.


    One hour! Good! Karian, assist Sir Verane in capturing Markain Castle! Im giving you a chance for my sons revenge.


    Karian chuckled and nodded slightly at Armis, who was talking about revenge.


    All right, before we start, send a knight to officially dere territorial war.


    Upon Count Armismand, a massive knight wielding a halberd, whichbined an axe and a spear, stepped forward, looking as if he couldnt understand what was happening.


    My lord, do we really need to do this? The permission has already been granted by the royal court, so we can just proceed!


    You fool! Dont you understand that we should carry out such tasks more diligently as they be more significant? An investigation team will probablye around when this is over, and theres no need to give us any unnecessary trouble. Follow orders.


    Yes, sir!


    Startled by the Counts reprimand, the knight hurriedly mounted a horse and approached Markain Castle.


    Huff I volunteered for this troublesome task. Hehe! I am Bavons, A knight of the Armis family! From now on, listen to the words of Lord Armis!


    As Bavons shouted so loudly that the city walls echoed, a petite girl emerged from the wall, looking irritated.


    I am Linda de Markain, the lord of Markain. Whats going on here?


    Oh! I heard you were young, but youre even younger than I thought! To think that such a young child would try to defend the territory, haha!


    I asked you whats going on.


    As Bavons spoke with a dismissive tone, the knights and soldiers on the city wall aimed their bows at him. Bavons, looking flustered, prepared to flee, opening his mouth with apparent frustration.


    Ahem! I will convey the words of Count Armis! From now on, the Armis family officially deres a territorial war against the Markain family! Remember, the only way for you guys not to die is to surrender! Irya!


    After delivering that message, Bavons hurriedly fled. Some of the soldiersughed at his retreat, but most of the knights and soldiers on the city wall did not look pleased, realizing that the current situation was noughing matter.


    Sigh


    Lord, do you really have a solution? I apologize for saying this but if theres no way, it might be better to surrender


    ren, the oldest among the eleven knights remaining in Markain, spoke, and the other knights nodded in agreement.


    Linda looked at them as if they were pathetic, then turned her gaze to Anton.


    Uncle Anton, send the signal.


    Understood!


    Anton, who received Lindasmand, quickly retreated, and the knights stared at him as if asking what was happening.


    You all can stay here and watch. We never intended to entrust Markains safety to those who surrendered.


    Lord, its unavoidable


    Yes. Lord, please observe the overwhelming enemy forces. Even with just over 500 soldiers, we cant hold out the city walls. It might be better to su-surrender


    Although Linda felt the knights excuses were pitiful, she couldnt me them for suggesting surrender. If it werent for Kaiyan, she might have surrendered herself. Or perhaps the situation wouldnt have escted to this point in the first ce.


    Meeting Mr. Kaiyan was the greatest luck for me.


    While Linda was thinking this, Anton, who had gone to send the signal, climbed to the highest tower and tore a scroll in his hand. At the same time, a white lump of light appeared before him, and he fell backward. The lump of light quickly rose into the sky.


    Pwoom!


    With a small noise, the high-flying white lump of light burst into the sky, emitting a strong light for a very short time before disappearing.


    Did that really work? It seemed too short.


    The time the light burst was so brief that if you werent looking at the sky, you might have missed it. However, there was someone who definitely saw the light clearly at the border of the Perryan Forest, the closest to Markain Castle.


    A boy with a white kitten on his shoulder.


    Alright, its started. Rieka, if we defeat the knights, our G points should increase significantly, right?


    Of course! Since they learned Aura, they give more G than mostrge monsters!


    That was none other than Kaiyan. Behind him, there were arge number of soldiers, numbering over two hundred, armed in splendid armor, enough to overwhelm the Armis army, rising from the forest.
