“It has been a while, Miss Karina. I didn’t expect to see you reaching the 10th tier this soon.”
“It’s been a while, master Joran.”
Karina nodded back at the old man who she saw almost a year ago.
Many things had changed since she last visited here.
She thought she would be afraid to set foot in this village again, but she felt a sense of peace.
Karina lost her people in this place and almost lost her life, too. Still, things changed so much within a year.
‘Now that I look back at things, we lost because we didn’t have the strength.’
She had no one else to blame except for herself.
“What are you doing? Did you all have nothing to eat today? Move Like men.”Sakura watched as the soldiers ran in an orderly fashion. She never felt tired by watching these training drills.She walked out of the long tunnel, reaching the new training grounds.This was the area north of the valley. They hurriedly built a new tunnel to access the northern beach away from the farmlands. The military training took place in many places, and this was just one of them. There were no cavalry or flying units in this place.She sometimes felt it was ridiculous. It was so common to think of the units riding Griffins and Wyverns.‘Even I will have them with me.’ “Mr Lucas, we have set up the base camp.” “Alright! We will start by opening up the mine first.” “But… The defences?” “First thing is to extract magic stones as fast as possible. For a start, we will have night patrols. No one knows about this place; we can set up a defence while the mine is ready. For now, mine and the facilities are the first.” “Yes, Mr Lucas.” ‘Sigh, there is a lot to do.’ Lucas relaxed back into the chair, looking at the map on his desk. He was still in his temporary tent, but it looked far better than any ordinary camp. He even had a water supply from their new tower tanks. There were three rooms, including his office, meeting room, and a reception. Setting up the base camp meant the basic showers and toilets were ready. The next phase would be to set up the buildings for the people. ‘This is too good for a temporary mining camp, but I have to follow the rules.’ Even the people of the valley were not saints. They would definitely not treat prisoners Blood Wolf Chapter 378: Ambition
“Fragon!” “Father?” Grim called her son, looking at the others of his clan. They all looked free and easy, so he feared to tell them the problem. Only a few of the adults knew the decision they had to make. After many years, they would be preparing for war. “We should leave.” It was the time they declared their standing to the world. “Yes, father!” He took after Fragon, leaving to a place they hadn’t been in ages. … “Father, they are here.” “Hm… It seems we are
“Your Highness!”Thomas lowered his head before his prince.He knew things were getting out of hand.The group of ambassadors sent by the Crimson Empire was strong, but his master still didn’t receive the approval of the king. The first prince and the second prince were ready to join hands to obstruct them.Also, he failed his mission.They never saw Adam after the first couple of days until they left. The princess returned without any promise of marriage, making things difficult for them.From what he heard; the Empress has sent Lord Adam for other work. It was almost as if she didn’t want them to meet again.
“My Lord, the druids are asking to see you.”“I will see them later.”Adam didn’t take his eyes off the blood sample in front of him.‘Wait! Why is someone here?’He turned around, frowning.“Master Ron?”He wasn’t expecting the messenger to be master Ron. The only other person working with him at the moment.“Hehe… Sorry, Lord Adam. They are waiting outside.”“Sigh, let them wait. This thing is too dangerous.”“Yes… Yes, we can&rs
“Even I don’t know.”“What?”Elena never thought they would receive an answer like this.“Well… we know it was a human.”“A human?”“Was a human… We don’t know what it is or how it got that power.”The fire dragon looked disturbed by his own story.‘Powerful human?’She instinctively looked at Adam.“I will start from the beginning. But I doubt even the High Priestess of Earth could tell you more.” “Your Highness!”Mason finally found time to talk to the busy Princess of the Empire.He watched her being busy with the rest of the close aides of Her Majesty.‘I guess this is why everyone is worried.’The sudden movements happening in the Empire was dragging too much attention. Even for the imperial officials, there were so many mysteries. They all had their part to play, but all knew the truth was not what they saw.It looked like a sudden rush of development in the valley, but these movements crossed the previous bottom line of Adam.They brought people from every part of the Empire. As long as people were not under a noble famiBlood Wolf Chapter 383: They Will Take it Personal
“They will take it personally.”“Sigh.”Mason let out a helpless sigh, remembering Her Highness’s words.Even until the end of their conversation, she didn’t deny the rumours. Even if Her Highness denied them, there was too much obvious evidence of something big happening. He didn’t believe they would replace infamous dwarven armours with random leather armour. Especially of those soldiers who would lead in the frontline.‘I am thinking about it so naturally.’He even wondered how his mind worked like this.The army training in the valley wasn’t small at all. It was the biggest army trained under a single nobl
