Ingfried's arrival in Valestria wasn't for nothing. Things were getting worse in the northern islands, especially about food. Henry arrived along with Caroline and Jeanne Ingfried. They left after being ordered by their father to partner with several villages and cities.
"Since the Atrea region was unstable due to the war, the food crisis in the northern islands has been severely affected, as we are quite reliant on Stratham's commodity products," Henry said.
"Yesterday, I had a meeting with His Majesty the King. He said the Palace cannot help, as the situation is complicated right now, and the finances are running low," Henry continued.
"But King Constantine gave me a suggestion to speak with you," Henry replied.
"You know, even though we are Archibald, we don't have the power to rule Atrea, especially when some cities have fallen to Valcke," said Giselle.
The woman showed Henry the brothel's condition, which even got a lot of help from Viseryon.
"So, you plan to return to take Atrea's territory?" asked Henry, confirming the news he had heard from Tobias."As the ruling noble of that place, I must return to take back what is mine," Tobias replied.Henry turned his head softly toward his aide. An amazing idea crossed his mind, one related to loyalty and payback. If Ingfried could assist Tobias in capturing the eastern territories, which were rich in farmland, they would no longer have to worry about food shortages."When exactly are you going to attack the region?" Henry asked.Tobias sighed, thinking about when would be a good time for him to attack, even though he hadn't finished gathering the troops yet, "Right after I get enough troops.""Then I will help you to gather the men you need. It's been a while since the Northern Islanders have joined the war," said Henry."I will wait for your joining," said Tobias.Once there was an agreement between the two, Tobias and Henry we
Tobias took Henry and Caroline to see the sights at Leafvile, Elisa following him. The first place Tobias wanted to show was Leafvile Waterfall, a place that had become a topic of conversation for many people across the country.There was no place like this in the northern islands, only coastal areas and towering, shady coconut trees. The overall landscape of the northern islands is lowland, with no hills or even mountains.The place's highest location was the northern islands' capital, Ocearis. A city associated with blue and its inhabitants of diverse ethnicities. Ocearis is the highest place on the entire land in the northern islands, and when a person stands on top of the high tower located in the city center, they can look around the entire island.Seeing natural beauty such as waterfalls touched Henry's heart, despite the number of people bathing in the waterfall pools. Tobias uses the natural beauty shown to make it a sacred place so that they will protec
***"To cooperate with Leafvile textile factory seems difficult to realize, considering we already have enough people to do it," said Tobias, receiving a guest from Rachdale Town who wanted to cooperate.The middle-aged man came with a woman, both amazed by the clothing Leafvile produced, much different from clothes elsewhere that seemed to use ordinary fabrics and not-so-good sewing methods.Hearing Tobias reject their request was saddening for both of them, but they couldn't do much about it. Tobias was the leader of this place, and he was in control of all the commodities in this place."Besides, I also already have my man in Rachdale. It would be bad for my working relationship with him if I accepted your request," Tobias said.The middle-aged man understood as he nodded his head slowly while smiling, "I understand, Lord Tobias."The two said goodbye to Tobias, stepping out of the headman's house as others entered. There was a long queue
Without his guidance, the village soldiers managed to set up several traps in the forest area. Not only traps but also trenches with sharp wood in them. Everything was done to prevent the attack on Leafvile's farm from happening again.All of Tobias' guests had finished talking to him. One by one, they stepped out of the village as it was getting late. The man was still in the village head's residence, standing tall on the second-floor balcony with his eyes fixed on the southern area.As time passed, the sunlight faded, replaced by the night. Oil lamps were lit all over the village without exception; even the streets were illuminated.For five hours, they worked on the trench. In the end, they finished and began to leave the place. The soldiers returned to their guard posts, on high alert, as the village was in danger due to the mysterious attack.One of the soldiers walked up, near the center of the village, to inform Tobias about the progress of the tre
The ten bandits captured by the village soldiers began to be brought together to the village's main road, away from the village center, to avoid disturbing the people's sleep. Not only were the bandits captured, but he also ordered the village guard soldiers to gather.Tobias came out of the forest, wiping his sword blade, which was stained with the bandits' blood. He stepped out alone, which attracted the rioters' and the village guards' attention."Let's make this quick," Tobias said, walking over to the bandits who were kneeling helplessly, facing east, directly across from him."Who sent you? You can't have done all this by yourselves, right?" asked Tobias, looking at the captured bandits individually.Tobias' question didn't get their attention. Instead, they turned their faces away, not looking Tobias in the eye. Some soldiers who saw their attitude suddenly became angry; one hit the bandits in the face with a fist."No matter how hard you tr
When Ilyn was about to confess, some bandits kneeling beside him tried to rebel, removing the cloth gag from their mouths. However, the soldiers were stronger than them. They immediately silenced all nine bandits by knocking them down."I'm sorry, my friend. I had to do it to protect my family," Ilyn said, giving up because he had no choice.Tobias grinned. He had guessed Ilyn wouldn't move when faced with the lives of his family. A soldier approached Tobias, carrying a furry coat that was warm enough to wear.He handed the coat to Tobias, whereupon the man walked over to Ilyn's wife and covered her cold body with his own, "Put this on. It will keep you warm."The woman gasped in surprise, her change in demeanor based on Tobias' response. She had originally thought Tobias was a cruel man who wanted to kill her son, but now she realized he was just trying to lure her husband into confessing.There is no single father in the world who wants to see his son murdered, let alone before his
Tobias and Roman left the village, traveling by carriage along the main road connecting the village with the city. Tobias was on the carriage himself, allowing a soldier to be the charioteer. The entourage left together, heading for Rachdale City, which was close to Leafvile. Its location under Mount Ashvile could be clearly seen from this village. "Hope they don't find out we've come to rescue the bandits' families," said one of the soldiers, Tobias nodding. "Our arrival at this hour will not make them suspicious. I'm sure they're still asleep," Tobias replied. The soldier agreed. Tobias' words were enough to relieve them so they wouldn't have to take up arms if something bad happened. The streets were deserted, not a single person passing by. Now and then, Tobias' eyes would see many wild animals appearing, most of them were nocturnal. There was no more conversation between Tobias and the two soldiers accompanying him. They were too
After no longer being suspicious, Tobias' work picking up the families of the bandits was much easier. Within half an hour, Tobias could take all the families of the six bandits. To his surprise, the carriage room could fit them all.The young man didn't know how Roman's rescue was progressing, but he only hoped the man would be alright. After the last family entered the carriage, Tobias' eyes could see the carriage was full."It looks like the two soldiers, and I won't be able to go home," Tobias said.Even though the three didn't get the available seats, Tobias was fine with it. Their safety mattered more than his, so he decided to tell the charioteer to take them away."Go, I will catch up," Tobias commanded, and the charioteer nodded, understanding the safety of the bandit families was the top priority.The chariot began to move at a steady pace, travelling along the dirt road to get away from Rachdale. As time passed, Tobias and the two soldiers with him could see the chariot beg

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
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
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.
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
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.
