Before Jax even entered the main hall, he could already hear various shouts coming from behind the door. And the moment he finally passed through, the sight that met his eyes infuriated him. He witnessed the Envoy officials, who his father had sent to coronate him, slapping one of his subjects. His fists clenched in anger, but he quickly released them, sighing as he tried to suppress the anger brewing inside him. Seeing this, Alicia knew Jax was already seething with rage. In the few days she had spent with this new version of her husband, she had come to realize that his anger no longer manifested in loud outbursts. He was now more like a silent bomb, ready to explode when least expected. And these officials had unknowingly triggered him; it was only a matter of time before the explosion occurred. “What the fuck do you think you are doing?!” Jax demanded, his voice filled with controlled fury as he enunciated each word with deliberate pauses. Though he wasn’t shouting, his Q
The officials sent by the Tier 4 King to coronate his son in his Kingdom were initially taken aback by Jax’s barbaric behaviour. They had likely expected to encounter a weakling due to all they have been hearing, but Jax shattered any preconceived notions they may have had along the way. He made it clear that he was not a sheep but a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and a dangerous wolf at that. “I ask once again, does anyone still have something to say?” Jax repeated, his voice filled with authority. This time, the officials snapped out of their dazed state. The one who appeared to be leading the envoy stepped forward, pointing a trembling finger at Jax. “How dare you kill the officials sent by the Royal Court of King Jayden B...,” The leading official began, but hesitated at the end, He was clearly cautious about using any derogatory terms like “bastard,” as he had witnessed the consequences of such an insult earlier. While he may have wanted to make a strong impression in front of
Jax sat on his regal throne, anticipation building as he opened his status tab to assess his newfound wealth. [Status Tab] Name: Jax Freeman King level: Tier 1 King Land level: Town Coins: 113,200 Spirit Coins: 58,600 Coupon: Tier 1 fragments x1000 (ten pieces could be combined to form a complete coupon, which could then be utilized to enhance a hero’s level) A triumphant smile spread across Jax’s face as he beheld the substantial wealth he had acquired in such a short span of time due to the war with the Orcs. With this considerable sum, he felt confident in his ability to defend his town should another war ever rear its ugly head. “Okay, this seems like some sort of experience card, Convert the entire one thousand fragment coupon into complete coupons,” Jax voiced his decision aloud. In an instant, a luminous glow emanated from his hand, resulting in a hundred coupons adorned appearing with depictions of powerful warriors that could be recruited from the barracks. Though
The moment the upgrade finished, a powerful wave of force emanated from Connor, affecting the environment around him. The barbarians were distinct from the warriors of this world; they did not cultivate Qi like others, instead choosing to fight and temper their bodies in the cruellest manner possible. This unconventional method was what granted them their inhuman physique. The Archer Queen, who stood beside Connor, couldn’t help but twitch her lips. She clearly understood what this aura signified, as Her hopes of putting up a struggle against Connor were instantly shattered, As he had ascended to another realm effortlessly and would have no difficulty defeating her now, armed with his newfound strength. While the Archer Queen worried about the discrepancy in power between herself and Connor, Jax had his own concerns. He noticed that the cost of Connor’s revival had increased alongside his newfound powers. Furthermore, Connor had acquired a new skill called barbarian charge. Th
After three days of travel, the Royal envoys finally arrived at the capital of King Jayden. Without even taking a moment to rest after their long journey, they immediately requested an audience with King Jayden, brimming with anticipation to see him for the first time.At first, the Royal guards of King Jayden were surprised by their anxious expressions. However, upon realizing that there were only four envoys instead of the expected five, they knew that something had gone awry during their journey. The missing envoy, and one more envoy who seems to have lost his hand, only confirmed their suspicions that an incident had occurred.The guards promptly notified the King that the envoy he had sent to his child village-kingdom had returned and desired to report to him immediately. Although this situation unsettled King Jayden, as the ruler of a Tier 4 kingdom that had endured numerous battles, he understood that the envoys wouldn't be this eager to see him if it wasn't of great importa
The Royal envoys wasted no time in exposing the truth, revealing all that had transpired in Jax’s throne room. Witnessing the king cold-bloodedly kill one of their own forced them to speak up, fearing they may be next in line. In that moment, they couldn’t help but recall the saying that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. In their eyes, Jax was a younger version of his father, not only in appearance but also in his barbaric behaviour. However, his father possessed even greater power, instilling a deep fear within them. King Jayden seemed to be like a demonic beast, ready to tear them apart for any mistakes they might make. This earned him the title of the Demon King in their minds. After hearing all the details, it became clear to the king that the envoys he had sent had purposely made things difficult for Jax, even though he had just achieved a great victory by defeating a thousand Orcs and capturing three of them for interrogation that the envoy had even brought back.
The reason for Jax's smile was his increased sense of security while traveling to the capital, now that he was officially a King of a Tier 2 kingdom and possessed Tier 2 warrior strength.During the Royal envoy's journey, Jax had took the opportunity to upgrade his Town Hall/Palace to the next level. It required him to pay ten thousand coins, and after some negotiation, the head builder agreed to undertake the work.Despite feeling wealthier, Alec couldn't help but grit his teeth in frustration at the thought of losing a tenth of his overall wealth. He still struggled to adjust to the habit of spending money carelessly, and the shrewd smile of the head builder seemed to mock him as he was always ripped off again.After a span of two days, his Town Hall upgrade was completed. And Without wasting any time, Jax immediately commenced the upgrade of his barracks, eager to unlock the next unit of warriors.This was when he acquired the mini giant unit, which resembled a heavy infantry squ
[ Two star Crown – Armament Type]+20% in charm+20% more effect in leading your warriors+20% in intellect+Natural cleansing from nature when worn-Linked to King JAX.Jax looked at his crown's stats after merging it as part of his King Armament, when he was coronated as a Tier 1 King he had received the notifications, when his father's arrogant envoys placed the crown on his head. So he had just agreed without checking it out.Initially, he never took the crown seriously, cause At first glance, it appeared Quite bland and ugly, with just one line and a single red star stone embedded in it.However, as he looked at the same crown now that had just upgraded , he noticed that it had transformed beyond what he recognised.It now had two pointed lines, each adorned with a red star stone, giving the crown a rare and captivating beauty.Jax soon realized that his crown followed the same principles as his cultivation level, upgrading alongside his town hall/Palace.It had become a part of h
“Your Majesty, if we do not receive reinforcements within the next three days, we may lose this battle,” one of Jerome’s Tier 1 captains spoke urgently, addressing the brooding Jerome as he sat upon his throne.The entire J-Clan Kingdom had been thrust into a state of war ever since the capital had been attacked. At present, they remained in the dark about the identity of the assailants or the kingdom from which the attackers have originated, as no kingdom insignia or flags were present on the black armoured warriors. It was a surprise assault that even King Jayden could have never foreseen, as the attackers had managed to strike without revealing their allegiance.Undoubtedly, they possessed some affiliation, yet one thing was certain: the invading army did not belong to any of the forces within the Wastelands. As none of the Wasteland kingdoms possessed nor the army or the capacity to mount such a grand-scale assault, targeting not only the main kingdom but also attempting to di
“Arrrgh! Why? How could you all allow this to happen?” The Orc chieftain’s voice reverberated through the throne room as he paced angrily, his bare chest heaving. Outside the massive window adjacent to the throne room, three immense images of grieving Orcs that had two stars revolving around them were displayed.The more he gazed at the images, the stronger his urge grew to clench his hands in his hair and pull them out in frustration.Although three Tier 2 kingdoms under their rule had been swiftly destroyed without resistance, it felt as if the battle had been between a child and an adult, the chieftain demanded an explanation for their rapid defeat.While all three kingdoms had suffered destruction, it was evident that the first to fall was indicated by the Orc image on the verge of disappearing above that particular kingdom.The loss of the Goblin kingdom, that was previously responsible for handling distasteful tasks they wished to avoid, had already stung when Jax decimated it.
As Lyra slowly advanced, the other Orc that had survived with the Orc captain was already sweating. However, when he glanced sideways, he noticed his leader making hand signals indicating that he had to make a run for it, but the orc hesitated; as he didn’t want to make himself Lyra’s next target, but the stern stare from his leader made it clear that rejecting a direct order meant certain death. Caught between the archer and his captain, he knew he had no choice.Their line of work was inherently risky, as they ventured into enemy territory without support, however, this mission had proven to be a complete failure. And it no seemed there was no hope left for their squad, with only two members remaining. With a nod, the orc signalled that he understood the plan and was prepared to proceed, this elicited a smile from the orc captain, who then gave another hand signal, counting down from three.As soon as he reached zero, the other orc swiftly got up and attempted to flee, Lyra’s
Silently, a group of ten Orcs emerged, encircling the remnants of the destroyed Goblin kingdom, and concealing their presence, their objective was to gather intelligence about the kingdom, or race that had dared to attack the Goblins kingdom, and was also capable of annihilating them before aid could arrive. These ten Orcs were elite spies dispatched by the Orc empire.While they possessed a smaller stature than the main Orc warriors, this reduction in size did not diminish their strength, in fact, they remained just as formidable as their larger counterparts, relying on their swiftness to compensate, while equipped with lighter and more nimble weaponry, they eschewed the heavy arms typically favoured by other large Orcs.“Move out!” commanded their leader, urging them to close the distance to the walls of the Goblin kingdom as the pass through boulders, their current position hindered their ability to gather information, obstructed by the towering walls constructed by the Goblins.
The news of Jax’s successful obliteration of the Goblin kingdom had rapidly spread throughout the J-Clan kingdom. King Jayden wasted no time in dispatching numerous message birds to the subordinate kings under him, officially announcing Jax’s victory over the Tier 2 Goblin kingdom at the border.While others might have been oblivious to Jax’s recent exploits, King Jayden himself couldn’t deny that he wasn’t well-informed about Jax’s movements. Though the Orc empire may still be unaware, but King Jayden knew that it wouldn’t be long before they gathered the intelligence that Jax and his army were responsible for the destruction of the Goblin kingdom. And when the news would inevitably make its way back to the Orc empire, they would then disseminate it further, therefore, Jayden wanted to ensure that he spread the news from his own kingdom before the Orc empire had the chance, starting with his children and the other general kings under his rule.–When Jessie received the messag
The Orc kingdoms near the area were not the only ones to catch wind of the situation of the wailing Goblin and realised that the Tier 2 Goblin Kingdom had been destroyed; some of the human kingdoms situated close to the borders of the Wastelands also became aware of what was happening.Meanwhile, in the capital palace of the J Clan, King Jayden gazed out of his window watching the image of the wailing goblin in distance, though his spies had yet to deliver any messages, but he felt no need to wait for their reports to understand who had initiated the attack on the Goblin kingdom, leading to its demise.After all, only Jax had sent him a letter declaring war, and he was the sole human king who had made recent movements with his army. King Jayden had initially anticipated that it would take Jax days to conquer any kingdom of his choosing, however, he had never expected Jax to completely destroy another Tier 2 kingdom. Jax had accomplished something that most of the other Tier 2 human
“If it wouldn’t be an inconvenience, have you considered taking them into your kingdom as your subjects?” Red suggested, bowing respectfully to Jax as he made his proposal.Jax seemed taken aback by Red’s words, but then he began contemplating the idea, No one had explicitly stated that as a human king, he couldn’t have other races as his subjects. He already had Barbarians, Amazons, and even Mini Giants coexisting in his kingdom, not to mention that Red had practically become an integral part of his kingdom also.“I don’t mean to impose, but the goblins could be valuable for manual labour, they can contribute to mining and perform strenuous tasks for the kingdom, all I ask is that you give them a chance to live, just as you have given me,” Red pleaded, his voice carrying the weight of his emotions.Jax understood that Red held genuine sympathy towards the goblin, though he was now deeply attached to Jax’s kingdom, but it didn’t mean he had forsaken all his feelings and transformed
Jax watched in awe as the Mini Giants maneuvered through the battlefield, their shields arranged in a strategic formation that deflected arrows and prevented them from finding their mark. The goblins stationed atop the city wall tirelessly shot arrows, but their efforts failed to hinder the relentless progress of the Mini Giants, who pressed forward towards the city gate.Bulwark, their leader, crushed the ball in his hand, which instantly turned into specks of light that transformed into a custom-made battering ram perfectly fitted for the Mini Giants. Without hesitation, Bulwark issued orders, causing the group of Mini Giants to split into two: twenty of them proceeded to push the battering ram, while the rest formed a defensive circle around it, shields locked together to shield the ram from any goblin attacks or projectiles.With their defensive formation established, the Mini Giants began their steady advance towards the target gate or wall, maintain
With Astrid and Red securing positions on the left side of the wall and eliminating the goblins assigned to guard the left flank, the Tier 2 Goblin who took command was forced to dispatch another wave of goblins toward the left side, in order to regain their lost foothold.“Leave them to me!” Red called out to Astrid, who was poised to engage. The strategy was clear: Connor had sent Astrid, because of his swift and decisive attacks, to take control of the left side in a jiffy. While Red had been sent out by Connor to be more of a test run, to see how he performs, but Red was eager to support Astrid and itching for a piece of the action after watching Astrid effortlessly dispatch several goblins.So while Astrid stayed behind to guard the fifty Barbarian soldiers preparing to ascend the wall with grappling guns against any surprise attacks or goblin archers , Red on the other hand also planned to widen the breach that he and Astrid had secured. This would facilitate the smooth entry
