798 Finishing The Central Battle
[Tell them this, whoever throws down his weapon and surrenders will be left untouched to live alongside his family] I sent this while adding the family touch as I knew how deeply the Hectors care for their families.
The first to object was Sara. she sent asking for continuing the fight.
And then many more started to object, including Legend whose words were delivered by the jumper.
[You know this kid you brought over, the one who called Legend, I like him! He is very brutal and aggressive, just the suitable lieutenant I was looking for!]
[Keep you hands off him, he is just a pure talented kid]
[But I want him in my army!]
[How? And he already has his own army to lead!]
[Stingy lord and king who never attends to his trusted and long serving aidee!]
I rolled my eyes. This jumper wanted to take a tiger and make him hold the fort for him! I wouldn’t let him do that. Legend has proved his worth so far, and just objecting to my decision proved he wasn’t satisfied yet.
[Don’t worry, the armies here won’t all surrender like this] I sent this to all, [Besides, who said we finished this war? There is still the grand aquatic army waiting at the eastern walls, and the rest of the continent left to conquer!]
That was true. Even if we won this battle, killed their king, and controlled their capital with the kill of most of their strongest armies.
That didn’t mean we got total control over the entire continent. There was still lots of work left to do, and they were going to be busy for a long time.
Also there was the small and very crucial part about the monsters.
According to the generals who left their posts there and came here to help, led by Hilary and Isabella, they left enough forces to safeguard the beasts.
They let their forces have a bite off these beasts. I would lead them out there first and kill each beast and watch how they would grow stronger.
And that would take time.
Not to mention the fifth beast must be somewhere in the northern towering mountains.
Hearing this, they all settled down and started executing this rumour plan.
At first, the response that came wasn’t that much. Only scattered hundreds up to thousands surrendered here and there, gaining themselves the retaliation of their allies nearby.
However after a few hours of fighting without the appearance of any of their leaders and king, they started to slowly believe what they were told.
Then the waves of surrender started to take a much larger scale.
[Told you, there will be many fools who will resist till the end] this was the true case here indeed. Even if most of the forces here surrendered, threw their weapons and fell to the ground in a surrender move, there was a good number that kept fighting.
Those were the hardest and last struggle the Hectors here could pull. Each single one of them took lots of forces of mine with him before dying.
When the forces surrendered, I spread contracts over their heads before letting them enter my shield.
Whoever refused to sign was killed at the spot by my dragons.
Seeing few of them being butchered in such a merciless way when they refused, the rest were terrified to even raise their voices, and signed the contracts.
As I was settling this here, my generals here led their forces out of the shield and started to kill to their heart’s content.
They got many losses, but that didn’t matter. By the end of the tenth hour, the last resistance pocket here fell, announcing that this entire capital was under my control.
Only one battlefield remained; the eastern one.
[You will go to the mountains and search for the last beast] but before that, I sent the jumper this order, asking him to continue what he didn’t finish so far.
[Why is it always me?]
[Just do it. This task of yours isn’t finished yet]
[Ok, what about my army? Don’t lend them to anyone, I’m warning you!]
He started this fight with an army made entirely out of warriors. But during the long course of this war, he ended up adding many races, humans, and even controlled Hectors to his army.
[Let them scatter in the capital] I sat my gaze upon the big pie here, [Let them stabilise the situation there, and take these signed contracts and let them distribute these over the citizens there]
[Ok, even if I felt a little bitter about letting them do that, at least no one will corrupt the mentality I planted in their souls and minds!]
I didn’t comment over his arrogant attitude and words, simply closed the chat before opening three others.
[Lead your forces towards the eastern walls. We will start to clean that battlefield]
[But we don’t have any aquatic forces!] Sara objected.
[Don’t you have Hectors? The forces that just surrendered are all elites. Use them and I’ll have my turtle helping] I looked over the gulf and ocean, [Also there is an army nearby that will come to our aid]
[Ok!]
The three answered before working out to take a piece out of the Hector’s surrendered to me. The jumper saw this and didn’t leave before taking his share.
This dude would die if he missed a chance or something like that!
But I didn’t say anything to stop him. In this war the armies fighting here lost it big, especially his.
He fought first at the eastern battlefield alone with my little one. Then he led his forces in a hasty retreat, before joining up the fight in the central zone of the capital.
It looked just fair for him to replenish his losses using such elites. Hopefully he wouldn’t end up destroying this army for the fourth time!
As the jumper left, and his army got tons of contracts to distribute over the citizens of the capital, I watched the four other armies move out towards the direction of the eastern walls.
