Half of the Soldiers were left behind.

However, since they were only going to protect the base, not many higher-ranking officers were left behind.

There were no Deputy Generals, only 30 Squad Leaders, 500 Unit Leaders and the rest were Head Soldiers and Normal Soldiers.

All these soldiers had to do was to stay in the camp,

It was an easy thing to do.

Actually, it was more like a break for these soldiers,

However,

Something happened.

An hour after the Main Army left, 10 Expert Stage Cultivators appeared in this area and together, they assassinated all 30 Squad Leaders and then killed around 100 Unit Leaders while escaping.

This was disastrous.

The whole army panicked.

“How did this happen?”

Ember, who was looking at her subordinates’ dead bodies questioned in a solemn tone.

“…”

No one replied.

“Where did those 20 Expert Stage Cultivators come from?”

Ember questioned again.

The Three Deputy Generals started thinking.

A Kingdom’s army only has 6-10 Expert Stage Cultivators, however, this does not mean that there are only 6-10 Expert Stage Cultivators in that Kingdom.

There are other Expert Stage Cultivators as well,

“The Nobles…”

Deputy General Lawrence muttered.

The answer was obvious, however,

“I don’t understand…

Why are the nobles moving?

Wasn’t this War a farce?

And even if the Solid Earth Kingdom doesn’t treat this as a Farce, the nobles moving makes no sense at all.”

When the Two counties are at War, the only time Nobles make a move is when they see the chance to earn some profit.

If they don’t see this chance, they would not move at all.

The King cannot force them either, else, the King will be known as a Tyrant and planning a coup would be a lot easier.

In a War, nobles were the least helpful bunch,

It has always been that way.

However, this time, the Nobles of Solid Earth Kingdom were moving…

Ember and her three Deputy Generals could not understand the reason behind it.

“What about our spies? If the nobles were moving, then something must have happened inside the Solid Earth Kingdom, why weren’t we informed about it?”

Ember questioned.

“It might be possible that they only discussed this with the Dukes, not the rest of the nobles. If a big announcement wasn’t made, then the Spies won’t be able to report anything.” Another Deputy General presumed.

“Umm… how are we so sure that these Expert Stage assassins are nobles?

What if it was something else?

A Hidden Team that belongs to the King alone or something like that…” Suddenly, Nux questioned.

Ember turned towards him and shook her head,

“It isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Grooming an Expert Stage Cultivator is a difficult time that needs a lot of time.

Of course, there are always chances that what you said was true, however, the chances of these assassins being nobles are higher.

In the end, all we are doing is presuming things.

We do not have accurate information.

However, one thing is clear.

The Solid Earth Kingdom’s movements are strange.

First, they had an unusually high number of Soldiers inside the Deathspike Fort.

Second, their 20 Expert Stage Cultivators assassinated the leaders of our army that weren’t even the part of War.

Something is going on inside the Solid Earth Kingdom…

I would need to report it.”

Ember muttered with a solemn expression on her face.

However, again, Nux couldn’t understand,

“How are these actions strange?

They wanted to defend Deathspike Fort and make it there’s, that is the reason why they fought so hard.

Then they used their assassins to Kill our Leaders to weaken our army.

All these actions were done in order to weaken our army.

Isn’t that completely normal?”

Nux questioned.

However, Ember shook her head again.

“What you said would have been true if the Woods Dynasty and the Solid Earth Kingdom were at war with each other.”

“Huh?”

Nux frowned.

Ember understood his confusion and continued,

“As I said before, all of this was a Farce.”

“I thought it was pretty clear from when we saw that there were 50,000 soldiers defending that fort.

This is not a Farce.

It is an actual War.”

This time, Nux didn’t back down.

“I agree with your words, Solid Earth Kingdom’s actions are too much.

That is the reason why I said it was Strange.

You see, there is no enmity between the Woods Dynasty and the Solid Earth Kingdom, therefore, they have no reason to start this war.”

“Huh? What’s the problem? In the end, the reason is only an excuse.

Even I can form a believable reason and start the War.

,c-o-m ‘The Woods Dynasty attacked us when we were down, now, they have to pay for their actions.’

A simple but effective reason.

Thyra was impressed.

However, Ember wasn’t.

“What you are talking about is ‘Forging a reason to influence the mass’, however, a War between two Kingdoms won’t start with something foolish like this.

Nux, when Two Kingdoms fight, the one that benefits isn’t one of those 2 Kingdoms, but the other Kingdoms.

Victory or Defeat doesn’t matter, when you participate in War, you are weakened, at the same time, the other Kingdoms just enjoy the show and strengthen themselves.

This is extremely disadvantageous for a Kingdom,

And if we talk about the situation of our continent, where the four strongest Kingdoms rule, 2 Kingdom fighting is other is the worse decision those two Kingdoms could make.

Therefore, unless there is absolute enmity between the Two Kingdoms, they would never go to war with each other no matter what.”

Nux finally understood.

“However, the Solid Earth Kingdom’s actions seem like they are pushing for War, which is completely unnecessary in this situation. This is why you think that their actions are strange, am I right?” Nux questioned.

“Indeed.”

Ember nodded and Nux’s expression changed.
