The spies who had stealthily followed the Barbarian army unit watched from the shadows, convinced that their presence still remained undetected. Their eyes widened in disbelief as Thorin, one of the new warriors on their radar, boldly stepped forward to confront the formidable Ogre leader. With a commanding presence and a towering stature, Thorin, along with the four remaining new captains, had already gained a reputation as forces to be reckoned with from the spies, as they saw them second only to the three leaders of Jax’s army – Connor, Bulwark, and the A****n Queen. Equipped with his massive war hammer, Thorin stood before the Ogre, with his long, blond braided beard and battle-scarred face that is a testament to his prowess in combat. As he defiantly discarded his weapon and assumed a battle stance, doubts and murmurs arose among the onlookers shrouded in darkness. Yet, Thorin’s unwavering confidence and determination radiated through to even them in the shadows. Some spies
King Jayden sat behind his Grand Throne, his face etched with concern, as one of his trusted soldiers entered and stood by his side, ready to deliver the message he had just gotten. “Your Highness, the spies have brought news about your son, King Jax,” the soldier reported. King Jayden let out a sigh, “Finally, I have been eager for him to leave. Those busybody spies from other kingdoms have been flocking into my kingdom, seeking permission to tour his region like a bunch of bears searching for honey.” “ Some even have the audacity to bypassed me and went there directly, at least he’s not there now, Let’s see how they will get to him now, I’ve been struggling to come up with different excuses to keep him out of their reach and I have succeeded, so what have the spies discovered about Jax’s movements?” As his face lit up in excitement, King Jayden eagerly awaited the report, however, the guard beside him hesitated before delivering the news. “Um, there is a slight problem, Your Hi
After successfully resolving the Ogre issue, the Barbarians continued their conquest to eliminate the kingdom’s threats marked by King Jayden one by one, appearing as an unstoppable force. News of their successful endeavours quickly spread throughout the kingdom, thanks to the spies tracking their every move and delivering the message. Their achievements soon reached the J-Clan capital, where Jordan had recently arrived to deliver his warriors for a training program. Learnt of Jax’s army actively addressing the whole j kingdom’s problems, Jordan reflected on his reliance on his father to enhance the quality of his soldiers, while Jax was already made even without their father’s help. And he realized that he should perhaps not provoke Jax, as he had done in the past, Jordan thought about the potential consequences. As he considered that even if Jax sought revenge in the future, the punishment might be lenient due to Jax’s loyalty and service to the kingdom, despite his status as th
[Status Tab] Name : Jax Freeman King level : Tier 2 King Land level : Low level City Coins : 2,065,450 Spirit Coins : 1,057,725 Coupons : Tier 1 coupons x11,577 / Tier 2 Coupons X22 /Tier 2 Fragment Experience Coupons x 7 / Tier 3 Fragment Coupons x 4 Jax looked at his Status, propping up his jaw with one hand while rubbing his eyes with the other, he realized he was on the verge of going broke on Coupons once again. The last war against the Orcs had been the most successful one he had ever experienced, with the mass killing of Orcs, Jax had acquired an abundance of coupon fragments. And he had believed it would be a while before he needed to use his coupons again, when he finally converted them, the total reached an impressive fifteen thousand plus. However, the system quickly brought him back to reality by charging exorbitant prices for upgrades and evolutions. Jax had been scheming ways to exploit the system with the coupon exchange, but it seemed the system had found a w
On the long-awaited day, Jax had finally agreed to meet with the envoys of all the kingdoms that sought an audience with him. He found himself in a grand dressing chamber adorned with rich tapestries and gilded mirrors, an environment that matched his regal attire and reflected his figure of power and authority as he stood before the grand mirror staring at himself.Lost in thought, Jax gazed at his reflection in the quiet room, his expression turning pensive as memories of recent events flooded his mind. Scenes from those past few days flashed before his eyes, bringing a smile to his face as he realized he was no longer the same small king he was as before.Witnessing the growth of his new army captains and Heroes made him proud, Jax even considered calling his captains, as commanders but halted when he realized that only a Tier 4 king had the right to bestow such a title. And he didn’t want an intermediate-ranking king to misuse that as an excuse to challenge his authority, after
Despite agreeing to meet with the envoys , Jax did not intend to see representatives from all the kingdoms that came to his kingdom. Instead, he left the selection of which envoys he would meet with to his wife, so she chose for him to only meet with envoys from six kingdoms, taking into consideration their ranking and potential benefits they could bring to their kingdom. This unconventional approach of selecting only a few of them angered the envoys from the other kingdoms, that were not picked as it seemed to imply that they were not important enough to meet with directly.Jax on the other hand did not really care about the opinions of those six individuals, the only reason he even agreed to meet with them was to avoid being perceived as arrogant and to prevent unnecessary conflicts with Mid Ranked kingdoms or kingdoms with potential to become Tier 4 soon. Choosing to meet with those six individuals was a strategic move to prevent rumours of his arrogance from spreading. However
“Sire, my name is...” Before the person could speak any further, Jax raised his hand, silencing him with a gaze filled with anger.“Tell me, does your kingdom want me to marry into your bloodline and sever my ties with the J Clan, or are you offering one of your daughters to take over my place as the main ruler, while I be grateful cause her father is about to elevate his kingdom to Tier 5?” Jax’s smile disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.“Yes, we do want you...” the envoy attempted to speak again, but Jax abruptly cut him off.“Enough! If the rest of you have come with intentions to coerce me into either of those scenarios, as I have just mentioned, leave my throne room, depart from my kingdom, and never return,” Jax’s anger was palpable.“How dare you speak to us, envoys of a Tier 4 Kingdom, in that manner?, Even your father wouldn’t dare treat us so disrespectfully, we deserve courtesy, you are nothing but a king of a small Tier 2 kingdom we deemed worthy of grooming, an
As they witnessed the Barbarian soldiers hang the corpse of the Almeria envoy, they were shock at Jax’s actions, as it reverberated through them. They were aware that the envoy from the Kingdom of Almeria had remained even after the others had departed, yet they had not contemplated the nature of his discussions with Jax.Because the Kingdom of Almeria, was previously esteemed as a Tier 5 kingdom, and it had only descended to Tier 4 rank due to the toll of war it had faced. But despite its current classification, no other Tier 4 kingdoms dared to compare themselves to Almeria. They recognized that Almeria, although diminished in rank, still retained the robust foundations of its past. As it was still capable of challenging and defeating multiple Tier 4 kingdoms without faltering.And Almeria was on the brink of reclaiming its Tier 5 status, needing only to fulfil a few remaining criteria to recapture its former glory. However, the grim sight of the Almeria envoy’s lifeless body b
