Chapter 581 - 582 – Continent of chaos.
<<The elves started moving while the beastmen betrayed us.>>
<<This is sudden and is happening al at once.>>
<<However, I've recalled general Rax forces to retreat as soon as the beastmen started acting weird and that proven to be a good call since he was able to be deployed against the beastmen in order to deal with the traitors.>>
<<However, there was now new problem.>>
<<The pressure we were once giving the holy kingdom ended up being completely lifted up.>>
<<And next problem was to do with Kor kingdom….. And Maq kingdom.>>
<<The Kor kingdom is on the bring of being conquered. Hell, we had already taken over the capital city and had taken the king into our custody.>>
<<All we have to do is to push little more and the kingdom will be fully ours…. BUT!>>
<<The fucking elves and beastmen…. And we do need to split our forces in newly conquered kingdoms in order to stabilize them.... DAMMIT!>>
<<I've ordered Blueberry army to retreat.>>
<<I know! I know! This maybe stupid! And we may be forced to reconquest Kor kingdom again, but I really don't have any choice!>>
<<But we have their king….. Oh wait….. OH, I FUCKED UP!>>
<<THE EX-SECOND PRINCE FACTION THAT I REFUSED TO WORK WITH! THEY WANTED TO TAKE OVER THE KINGDOM!>>
<<They may not fucking care about the king!>>
<<….>>
<<But they were also extremely hostile towards the church…. And without them backing them up….. AH! I WILL JUST FUCKING WAIT AND SEE!>>
<<For now, elves and beastmen.>>
<<The elves that we knew that were going to move at any moment had finally started operating.>>
<<They have gathered an massive army of the elves alongside the spirits and plant type monsters.>>
<<What they did? They launched two attacks at us.>>
<<The first attack was launched at us, the empire…. And the second attack was launched at the dwarves?>>
<<…. Well, for us they aimed at our backlines while most of our forces were focused on the dwarves at the boarders…. Bastards. Their attack hit us good, like extremely good…. But the army we had in reserves were also deployed to counter attack the elven invasion.>>
<<This allowed us to somewhat counter attack the elven invasion and push them back...>>
<<As for the dwarves? As said before they were also attacked, but from what I've heard they have lost multiple settlements in short amount of time.>>
<<This apparently caused the dwarves attacks to calm down, since they needed to focus on defending their own kingdoms.>>
<<…>>
<<And the beastmen…. These bastards betrayed our deal and stabbed us in the back.>>
<<I've checked the details about their history.>>
<<The betrayal of the royal family.>>
<<Holy kingdom manipulations.>>
<<The revolution and restoration of the kingdom.>>
<<All of it add up.>>
<<The request of conquering the whole holy kingdom WAS also reasonable for them to request, but it was also too big of a request….. However, I wanted to have "some" friendly relationships so I've decoded to accept their proposal even if they are overstepping their boundaries a bit…. But in the end they still betrayed us?! WHY!?>>
<<….. And there is something that we found out recently about the "new" beastmen forces.>>
"The beastmen are using monsters that were never before seen on this continent." – said ClownFrog while using communication mirror.
"…"
"Are you suggesting that the beastmen are the "allies" of the "benefactor"?" – asked the witch Elizabeth Marvawan through the communication mirror.
"Considering the current circumstances…. It would point at the beastmen being the ones that are working with them." – said ClownFrog.
"Not only that, but the number of the soldiers that the beastmen nation posses suddenly increased way too much…. As if they just "made" them."
"We have also captured some of the beastmen soldiers and asked them what is going on…. Some of them are just saying that they were ordered to suddenly change their plans… While some others said that they did not knew existence of the new army."
"An huge army of never before seen monsters that even beastmen soldiers never heard before or the unknown army that is working for them that just appeared out of a blue with a snap of a finger? Even some higher ranking officers knew nothing!"
"…. This is just like it was with the "benefactor" …."
"….. And there are also elves."
"They have also started activity up around the same time the beastmen betrayed us…. I don't know if they working together or not… The elves are just attacking us without saying anything as well."
"They didn't declared war or anything, they are just acting like bandits and savages."
"…"
"We will focus on investigating both nations…. If it really the "benefactor" is involved in all of this, the Sabath will join the war as your allies."
"Thank you." – said ClownFrog before ending the call.
"…"
(Still…. This is far too chaotic!) – thought nervous ClownFrog.
(It is not just us anymore dealing with greedy kingdoms, but….. Dammit.)
(The whole continent is a giant mess.)
(War is breaking out everywhere at once, everybody is fighting each other….. And most importantly everybody wants us gone.)
(This is bad…. Very bad…. That kind of chaos will wreck everything AND we don't have enough soldiers to deal with it.)
(The reserve troops we had on standby will do their work, meaning we can somewhat deal with the beastmen and elves…. But what about invasion?)
(This war will never and I mean EVER stop until we destroy all hostile kingdoms.)
(Not only that, but to fully absorb the kingdom territory, we need to completely deal with the resistance and enemy army that is still wondering around…. That means military would need to be stationing in the said conquered kingdom.)
(But we straight up don't HAVE enough troops for invasion, defense and conquest.)
(We are using our trained necromancers to keep using corpse of the fallen soldiers to create undeads, but undeads are mindless and we would need REAL soldiers to occupy the enemy kingdom.)
(And there is also the holy kingdom.)
(They are only pretending to be strong and only rely on heaven support.)
(Their so called "holy army" would had been no problem to us before…. But now with all this chaos going on, that massive army joining in would just derail everything even more!)
"…"
(We are being attacked by 4 different kingdoms.)
(2 of the smaller kingdoms were defeated and conquered, but we can abandon them.)
(The holy kingdom "MAY" appear to try and recruit back the two smaller kingdoms, but we have already spread our propaganda about the holy war and why it has really started, alongside the betrayal of the two kingdoms.)
(Pretty much, citizens from both of these kingdoms are now fully aware that the two kingdoms were one of the aggressors AND that the people in charge such as royal and noble families were the ones to blame…. They were also extremely corrupted so people would not dare to fallow them again or the holy kingdom that had their "ugly nature" seen by the public.)
(Their fighting style also caused a "Fate" stat to definitely decrees and we also spread other nasty "informations" about them, like for example that they had "willingly" sold their people to the third prince faction.)
(This will cause the holy kingdom to get extremely weakened….. But the zealots and greedy nobles will not give up.)
(However, the biggest problem right now are the beastmen….. Their army suddenly skyrocketed with soldiers…. This does prove that they could be related to the "benefactor" and the elves attacked in the exact time the beastmen betrayed us…. Does that mean that the elves are also working with the "benefactor"?)
(The elven army from the reports looked…. "Normal"? But who is to say that they wouldn't have a hidden army just like beastmen? We can't be too sure of anything yet…)
(And there are also the dwarves… These guys were dead set on conquering the empire since it was the only thing standing in their way…. And according to the captured dwarves, the king won't stop no matter what...They will not give up. They will either win or die; this is the fate that they had accepted….. Fucking savages.)
<<The entire war that was close to winning suddenly turned into shit show as the entire continuing was now engulfed in the war.>>
<<Our allies, the beastmen had betrayed us and declared war on us…. But they are also still at war with the holy kingdom, I guess their hatred for them is still very real.>>
<<Then there are the elevens and dwarves.>>
<<The war between them is raging on, but that surprise attack of theirs had left a deep wound on the dwarven kingdom….. However, they are also still attacking us.>>
<<There is also the holy kingdom and the corrupted nobles... And now also we maybe be dealing with the "benefactor" joining the mix... FUCKING NICE!>>
<<…. Is the Caliburn the "benefactor" goal? Or maybe something different?>>
<<…Or maybe he just wishes to destroy this entire continent…. This would also somewhat make sense considering how they lend their humanoid monsters to the third prince back then…..>>
<<Fuck me…. This war won't be ending anytime soon, right?>>
<<Beastmen, holy kingdom, elves, dwarves and "benefactor" ... As well as us…. This is just…. Giant ass mess…>>
