The troops were ready when it was five o'clock in the morning. Yellowish light appeared from the east, making the blue sky rise as a sign of a new day.

Liam sat on his horse, accompanied by the other captains, including Karin. The tents in the camp had been cleared except for Tobias' tent. The soldiers were wearing their dark blue armor to prepare for battle.

From the front, Liam watched Edgar and Gunnar arrive at the camp. Liam deliberately sent them away for good reason. The man wanted to know the circumstances at Sungate Castle that morning.

"All the guard posts have been destroyed. Sungate Castle's gates are sealed; it looks like they're ready for battle," Edgar explained, stopping his horse right before Liam and the other captains.

"What about the soldiers guarding the logistics line?" Liam asked Gunnar.

"They're still keeping a vigilant watch. If something bad happens there, we'll know about it," Gunnar replied.

"Alright. Ev

    The southern wall of the castle was completely unbreakable, and the artillery strikes of the 10 trebuchets failed to destroy the iron castle. Seeing this, it was no wonder that people called it the Solar Castle due to its amazing strength and durability.Despite the failure, the trebuchets threw stones relentlessly at the city center. This was done in order to let the townspeople and soldiers of Sungate escape on their own.With the fire growing, they had no choice but to leave the place. After thirty minutes of waiting for the impact of the trebuchet attack, Liam raised his right hand as it was tightly clenched.Adrian saw Liam's hand gesture, indicating that he wanted to end the artillery attack. Adrian looked back, ordering his soldiers to stop attacking.The soldiers began to stop reloading the trebuchets, ceasing the attack and focussing their eyes on Adrian.The vibrations in the city began to subside, the soldiers who had been sheltering in

    Tobias came out of the tent, startling the ten infantry soldiers standing guard outside. They hadn't expected Tobias to wake up from his coma.There wasn't a single horse in the place, so Tobias had to walk to Sungate, which was behind the hill. As Tobias was about to leave, one of the soldiers stopped him."Your condition is unstable, Lord Tobias. Let Karin's aide recover your strength first," said one of the soldiers standing before Tobias.Tobias didn't answer, instead turning to stare intently at the soldier in front of him. Realising that Tobias' attitude was hard to persuade, the soldier began to give up.He opened the way for his commander to keep walking. The young man strode back with dignity, the golden coat that looked like a shadow of a coat constantly fluttering in the wind."I'll go after him. You take care of Tobias' tent," Karin's aide said, the infantry soldiers nodding.The woman, along with her fellow medic, stepped quickl

    Seeing Liam call out to her, Karin immediately rushed to the man. She was stunned to see Tobias lying limp on the ground, vomiting blood. Several captains surrounded Tobias, guarding the young man from Valcke's attack."Take him to the med tent," Liam said, and Karin nodded.Tobias was immediately carried by two medics on a stretcher. Along the way to the medical tent, she felt the man's body turn cold. Karin was much more afraid of a cold temperature than a warm temperature.Not only did his body temperature turn cold, but Karin also checked the young man's pulse. He still had a pulse, but it was weak and slow."He is dying. Take him to the private tent!" said Karin.They took Tobias to a tent set up originally to treat wounded captains, but it was now being used to treat Tobias' condition.Karin and her two soldiers arrived at the place, they lifted Tobias' body up onto the bed. Karin herself focused on getting the tools to help her task o

    ***The next dayTobias and his soldiers were still camped in the battle area. Liam has moved towards the Sungate city centre, he needs to organise the city to return to normal.Edgar and Adrian helped each other to gather the prisoner-of-war soldiers. The number was much larger than the prisoners of war when they were in Silkland. It could happen because most Sungate soldiers immediately lay down their weapons after the southern gate was destroyed.Tobias himself was still in the medical tent, under the full care of Karin and Anne. No one was allowed to enter and approach Tobias. They wanted to protect his fully awake condition.The tent's curtains opened, Tobias, who was eating food to fill his skinny body, began to stare at the visitor who came to the tent.It was Laura, the woman who had put him in a coma for five days. Tobias already knew his mind and heart were shackled at that time by Laura's suggestion of magic.Laura came in with her head bowed as if feeling guilty about some

    After about fifteen minutes of waiting, a soldier wearing long pants and a short-sleeved T-shirt rushed over to the medical tent to inform Tobias."Lord Tobias, they're done," the soldier said.Gunnar, who had woken up, immediately stood up, helping Tobias to return to his tent. However, before he could stand up, Tobias had already reached out with his left hand, preventing Gunnar."You don't need to take me. Just focus on your condition," Tobias explained."But what about your condition? You can't leave without anyone's help," Gunnar said, worried."Don't worry, Captain Gunnar. I can escort him," replied the soldier.Tobias nodded. He began to lift his body as his right hand continued to grip the IV bottle tightly. The soldier walked over and carried Tobias away."Have they both returned to their posts?" Tobias asked.The soldier helping him shook his head with both eyes focused on the road ahead, "No. They're still waiting fo

    ***Two days later.They had already informed Tobias about their willingness to conduct negotiations. Prince Bernhard was in Nashant, along with Valcke's defense minister and the general commander of Valcke's forces.The prince realized Archibald's forces were unstoppable, given Valcke's troop numbers were drastically reduced due to Prince Berthold's faction withdrawing from Atrea.Now, the number of soldiers in Atrea has reached 50,000 soldiers. That number can only protect one major city in this place; the choice is only Stratham or Nashant.Initially, Valcke's troops would continue to hold off Archibald's attack, but their morale dropped after watching the incredible power at the Sungate battle. They were unable to resist the tremendous god-level power that Archibald had.The negotiations were located in the city center, at Sungate's government office. Tobias had prepared it in such a way, as well as the security in the city.The y

    "Jiyu? What does that mean?" asked Arius."Freedom," Tobias explained."How much does Valcke benefit from working with you?" asked Bernhard."The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I have never been enemies with Valcke, only with Equestria," Tobias replied."All the cities we occupied, they were re-inhabited by Valcke citizens. I just took them from your control," Tobias explained."Our enemy is the same, Equestria. By working together, we can bring Equestria down," Tobias continued."Let us discuss first," Bernhard pleaded. Tobias smiled as he held out his hand.The young man's heart was pleased and relieved. Bernhard had indirectly thought about the benefits of Tobias' proposal. The crown prince just wanted to make sure whether his members agreed or not with the proposal.Liam led Prince Bernhard to an empty room in the meeting room, unlike Tobias, who chose to walk closer to Gabriel and Falco.Tobias stood before them, g

    ***The next day.Tobias and his captains had much work to do. The war was indeed over. The victory fully belonged to Archibald. However, in order to preserve this victory, Tobias needed to organize several things.The most important thing was to keep the government in place. Tobias would run the government from Sungate for the time being while Liam was assigned to the military.He had already given his first order, telling Jiyu's soldiers to set up border posts in Highvalley. It was the first measure to prevent attacks from Equestria.Karin walked in carrying a small piece of paper sent through the postal carrier's raven. The woman told Tobias that the message had come from the West. Tobias guessed it was from the expedition team led by Gunnar.Tobias stretched out his hand, took the letter and read it slowly. It was short but clear and authentic. Gunnar said that he was already in Nashant. Not a single Valcke soldier was there."So,

    Chapter 255. The Everlasting Promises

    Tobias looked faintly behind him, seeing thousands of human troops trying to chase Renna, who flew quickly to the east, back to the border area between the Forbidden Territory and the Human Territory.Tobias' right hand could be seen tightly grasped by Renna's left hand, while Aurora could be seen carried by the right. The two people left the place at high speed."I did exactly what you wanted. What's next?" asked Renna, curious.Renna continued flying with the help of her two black wings. Directed forward with the condition that she had left the troops of mankind.While flying freely, Renna occasionally glanced back, trying to ascertain Tobias' next plan.However, Tobias did not show any response, still silent, with both eyes directed forward to the rocky mountains rather than Renna's sights.As Renna flew over the rocky mountains, the lush green countryside with trees was clearly visible in Tobias' eyes. It indicated that Tobias was now in human territory."Where are you taking me,

    Aerith did not hesitate to attack Tobias with all the power she had, with the mana capacity the woman had not so much anymore, the impact of the previous use of the palace's protective magic."Akihiko! Listen to me," Tobias insisted, asking Aerith to talk to him."You killed my husband! I won't forgive you," Aerith cried.With two magic circles appearing in front of Aerith's palms, dark black magic balls with a reddish-black color rushed towards Tobias' body.Tobias was able to deflect them easily, using his katana sword as if he was playing a game of baseball with Aerith. The magic balls flew in random directions, then exploded with a significant blast.Aurora looked terrified, taking cover behind Aerith's back with both Aurora's eyes closed. Tobias occasionally looked at Aurora, the little girl shouldn't be in a place like this."You shouldn't let Aurora see this fight," Tobias pleaded.Aerith stopped her attack on Tobias, looked back and saw Aurora who was trembling in fear with bo

    "So, you want to get in my way?" asked Tobias, pointing his sword forward."No one is allowed to come near our King and Queen!" groaned one of the werewolves.It leapt powerfully forward, both hands and feet full of claws. Tobias parried each of the werewolf's claws with his katana, the monster's attacks were powerful enough, but not enough to defeat Tobias.Not only by itself, but the werewolf seemed to be assisted by several people, two representatives of the superior races in the Mythological Kingdom. A centaur walked over with his right hand pulling out a large sword, swinging at Tobias' head.Tobias was pushed back, the blade of his katana was blocking the attack of the monster's claws before him, so he had nothing to do but put his faith in the golden armor he wore. Tobias spun around, seemingly turning his back to the werewolf without changing the grip of the sword in his right hand. Tobias' left hand stretched out to the side, blocking the centaur's sword strike with the fing

    Chapter 252. Battle Inside The Palace

    Tobias was still seated on his horse, focusing both eyes forward to the Mythology Kingdom palace where Aerith and the other officials were taking refuge.Liam was now near Tobias, focusing equally on the palace. Liam's eyes narrowed, never before had he seen people from different races in the Forbidden Territory come together to fight humanity."Are we going to fight them all?" Liam asked."If we don't want the chain of hatred between the two sides to grow again, then we must fight them," Tobias said firmly.He dismounted, stepping closer to the palace gates that seemed to be protected by something. The people inside the palace were on alert, especially after seeing the man in golden armor walking closer.Tobias' hand stretched forward, trying to touch the magic barrier. Just as his fingers made contact, a spark of electricity and fire was created that startled Tobias.Tobias' eyes squinted hard, seeing the white smoke from his finger's contact with the magic wall."Are you okay?" ask

    Chapter 251. Northern Gate Assault

    Hearing Tobias' impassioned cry made all the soldiers flare up with excitement. They shouted loudly, raising their swords, bows and spears in the hope that the war would end in this battle.Gunnar led the troops that would attack at the center gate. Their main goal was not to penetrate that place, but rather to distract the Mythology Kingdom's troops from the north gate.Just as Edgar led the troops to attack the southern gate. In this battle, three armies of humanity will besiege the capital from three entry points: north, center, and south.Gunnar led the army with Adrian and Karin, while Edgar was alone with Laura. However, Tobias had asked Laura to use her illusion magic. He wanted the mythology troops to know that Tobias was in the troops attacking the southern gate.The focus of the Mythology Kingdom troops will be on Tobias, because only he can determine the course of this war. If Laura managed to display Tobias' projection at the southern gate, then it was certain that the Myt

    Seeing that the banyan tree territory was completely controlled by the dwarves made Tobias' heart happy. The dwarves shouted with joy, some cried with emotion while hugging each other.One of the lead dwarves walked up to Tobias. He raised a hat similar to a magic cone and lowered it while bowing his head.Not only did he do this, but the other dwarves did the same. They paid their highest respects to Tobias, who was a human, in his attempt to reclaim the sacred place for them."Thank you, Mr. Tobias. We dwarves will always be indebted to humans," the dwarf replied.Tobias, who was still sitting upright on his mount, dismounted, stepped up to the dwarf and reached forward, asking both parties to shake hands."Welcome to your true home. Keep your promise not to participate in this war," Tobias said.The dwarf cast both eyes downward, looking at Tobias' right hand that was pointed forward. The dwarf in front of Tobias smiled widely with a nod of his head, shaking Tobias with both hands.

    Chapter 249. Battle under Tree

    In the end, Tobias agreed with the dwarves on a plan of attack. However, the dwarves wanted to give a special condition. They wanted when the attack on the Mythological Kingdom Capital happened, he wanted all the dwarves to have left their city.In short, they wanted Tobias to liberate the promised area immediately. Once the area was free of wild elves, then Tobias could freely attack the capital.Gunnar, who happened to still be beside Tobias, spontaneously asked about the requirement. Tobias turned his face to the side, staring intently at the man."We'll carry out the terms well," Tobias said."But with whom? It will take about half a day to mobilize the troops there," Gunnar replied.Tobias shook his head as his eyes star

    Chapter 248. Negotiate with Dwarves

    Tobias' head kept moving to the right and left, seeing how many Mythology troops were guarding the gate of the capital connected to the city of the dwarves.Not so much; there were probably only about 1000 people, in contrast to the gate in the center where there were probably about 5000 to 10,000 mythological troop soldiers.Liam and Gunnar did the same, looking around the surrounding area as Tobias had done. However, they were not paying attention to the soldiers above the gate but to the dwarves in that place."If the dwarves fight too, then we'll have a hard time," Liam replied softly."You're right. The dwarves are good at using magic. Their abilities are almost comparable to the elves," Renna added, turning her head to the side to look at Tobias.
