Chapter 117
Imperial Capital of Nemesis .
Emperor Rudolf was being reported by Count Voltas .
“Huh, did the Volga finally decide to move?” Asked the emperor .
“Yes, your majesty . There were reports of troops, Gigants, and other military supplies being delivered over the borders . ”
“Kkkuk, foolish guys . ”
Rudolf was about to create a border dispute to get rid of Luke .
However, in the middle of the execution of the plan, his thoughts changed .
As he was going ahead with the plan, he felt like hitting the Volga Republic by more scale troops .
Which was why he showed the convene of troops in the capital .
Laughing to himself, Rudolf asked Voltas,
“How is our preparation coming along?”
“There is a lot being prepared behind the Torlot Fortress . If the men enter, they might be taken down in just one shot . ”
“It isn’t important to get them down in one shot . Rather, we must push them back and defeat them, make them pay for what happened eight years ago . ”
Rudolf wanted to invade deep into the Republic soil and secure the territory of Volga for himself .
“Definitely will do that . I communicated to the Majesty’s loyalist Count Naiman, and have good news to report . ”
“That is alright, just tell me how Luke is doing?”
Rudolf was wondering what the young man was up to .
“A spy has stated that he has been teaching his family fencing to win over the favor of the knights . For that reason, the troops in the fort have been motivated . ”
“We get the final blow . Please tell me that there weren’t any knights or Gigants reinforced in the Torlot Fortress?” Asked Rudolf .
“They got more canons, but the number of knights and Gigants remains the same . There is no way for them to reinforce any military personal as Count Naiman is letting them know that he is a tough spot . ”
“Huhuhu, the Fortress will collapse early, but we need to hold onto it from falling into the hands of Volga . Tell Count Naiman to plan well . ”
“Understood, Majesty . ”
Voltas bowed and after a while, he had a little disturbed expression .
“But, there was one report that was unusual, your majesty . ”
“An unusual report?”
“It was said that right after joining the Torlot Fortress and taking charge, he had a one-on-hundred fight against the knights . The unusual and absurd report was he overcame them with overwhelming skills . ”
At first glance, the report made no sense .
Unless one was a Sword Master, 100 knights couldn’t be defeated .
However, Rudolf felt something strong, that the news could be true .
“Did he hide his skills?” Rudolf spoke to himself .
When he used his magic on Luke at the ceremony, the sword skills were intermediate and was with 3 circle magic .
That wasn’t enough to win over 100 knights .
“Kuk, interesting guy he is . He has a sly side to himself . ” Said Rudolf .
Rudolf laughed at the fact that Luke had deceived his eyes .
“Majesty, should I use my hands now?”
“No, leave him alone . With the things that would happen in the coming future, even if he is a Sword Master, he would never be able to survive . Which is why let that Luke guy do more than just keeping an eye on him . ”
Torlot Fortress was located on the advance road of Volga Republic .
Tens of thousands of troops, thousands of knights and hundreds of Gigants were pushed down the road, no way a Sword Master cans top all those forces .
A one-man legion, even a Sword Master himself could never block hundreds of Gigants .
And the Volga Republic harbored several strong Sword Masters .
“What is the situation of the Holy Arthenia Empire? Is there no way the guys are going to get back to us?” Asked the Emperor, Rudolf .
Pushing into the Volga Republic on a full swing would turn troublesome if the Holy Arthenia decided to invade Baroque .
“The successor of the Pope hadn’t been decided yet . So, they won’t be planning to move their army any time soon . ”
The situation of Holy Arthenia played a huge role in the Baroque Emperor and Voltas’ ability to prepare for a war in confidence .
If the members of the Arthenia didn’t split into two groups due to selecting the successor race, then the war wouldn’t even be possible .
‘Huhuhu! I waited so long for it! It is time for our empire to turn into grandeur!’
Rudolf’s eyes looking out the window were filled with greed to occupy the entire continent .
