Milantes Falls

Looking at Sordil who had appeared in mid-air, Hadessta asked in confusion, "You naughty boy, why did you save this guy?"

"Old man Hadessta, this man has other uses, so he can't die yet. (Sordil)"

Hearing Old Suo's words, Hadessta and the others nodded in understanding.

Because the second-hatched Old Suo had received the power left behind by the powerful being and undergone a complete upgrade, his life dimension and power level had significantly improved. Therefore, Yelibell, as a poison dragon, lost the ability to hear Old Suo's thoughts. So, to resolve her doubts, she could only ask, "Brother Sordil, you didn't come here just to save this guy named Leizhi, did you?"

After Yelibell finished speaking, everyone focused their attention back on Old Suo in the air.

"Hehe! Nothing can be hidden from Sister Yelibell! (Old Suo)"

"Hey, you naughty boy, stop playing coy and tell me! Otherwise, I'll teach you a lesson!" (Gilkunis)

Looking at the three old men, one old woman, and Yelibell standing silently behind Gilkunis, Old Suo instantly realized that he had become the target of the united front's attack. So, being quite pragmatic, he decisively surrendered and confessed to be lenient.

"Hehe! Actually, besides rescuing Leizhi, I also wanted to fight alongside you guys and satisfy my itching thirst for battle. (Old Suo)"

Seeing the His Majesty the King's awkwardness, the Six Heavenly Kings of Yelibell all looked up and began to study the day's weather. (Sigh! Old Suo Old Suo, you're truly hopeless. If I had known you were this kind of person, I wouldn't have let you be king. Sigh, you've really embarrassed me!)

"Hey! Dad, Mom, what's going on here?" (Old Suo)

Hearing Old Suo's question, tinged with anger, the soft-hearted Wattster said, "We didn't mean anything by it, it's just blatant contempt, disregard, and a desire not to know you!"

"What's wrong with me? Why do you all despise me, ignore me, and not want to know me? (Old Suo)"

"You naughty boy, can't you have any sense of being a king? Stay where you're supposed to be and do what you're supposed to do!" (Hadessta)

"Oh dear! I've already sent the Magic Council away. Philiers is no longer in danger. As for those administrative matters, Red and Irene will handle them for me!" (Old Suo)

Seeing Sordil taking it all for granted and shirking his responsibilities, Yelibell, who was planning to become best friends with Irene, couldn't stand it any longer. (I don't need to explain what kind of Great Owl friends Yelibell was planning to become with Irene, right?)

"Brother Sordil, it was reasonable for you to leave the affairs of state to Sister Irene was the queen. But now you are the king, and you are in perfect health. Nothing will happen to the front lines without you. If you continue to do this, it will be going too far!"

Upon hearing Yelibell's words, Old Suo and the five elders were all dumbfounded.

"Hey! Marshal, what's going on here? (Cannon Fodder One, Gilkunis)"

"Yeah! It's understandable that we lose our temper, but why did this girl suddenly explode? (Vanguard General, Hadessta)"

"Oh dear, you men are so oblivious! You can't even see such an obvious signal! (Marshal, Wattster)"

"Signal? What signal? (Cannon Fodder Number Two, Woodman)"

Just as the marshal was about to share his experience, General Radel of the Central Army suddenly had an epiphany.

"Oh! I understand! Marshal, you mean we can launch a general offensive against Yelibell Highlands! (Central Army)"

After Zhongjun's explanation, the remaining few blockheads finally understood.

"So... Marshal, when do we move out? (The vanguard)"

"Once this is over, we'll take action immediately! (Marshal)"

"Alright! (Cannon Fodder One, Number Two, Vanguard)"

"Marshal, we can take Yelibell Highlands, but what if His Majesty the King or Her Highness the Queen objects? (Central Army)"

"The King doesn't care. If he doesn't accept, we can send him tons of Maruko to teach him a lesson. But Her Highness the Queen is a different story... Here's what we'll do: after we get back, I'll sound out the Queen's opinion first, and then decide when to take Yelibell Highlands. (Marshal)"

"Alright! (To all officers)"

Upon hearing about the plot of Father's Legion, the 'ground' of Yelibell Highlands was instantly stained red, while the bewildered His Majesty the King switched his expression to a three-color triad of red, white, and black before exploding on the spot.

"Old men, are you sending me to the morgue?!" (Old Suo's inner thoughts)

After silently thanking his five devoted fathers with tears streaming down his face, Old Suo suddenly wanted to try and see if he could return to the egg, because he was truly afraid to face the Her Majesty the Queen after learning of the conspiracy. (Come on, Old Suo, Her Majesty the Queen's iron durian, washboard, and nail board are beckoning you.)

"Well... Dad, Mom, I think your criticisms are valid, so I've decided to leave and go back to Philiers." (Old Suo)

Knowing Old Suo's abilities, Yelibell's face turned pale instantly upon hearing His Majesty the King's words.

Upon seeing that the high ground assault, which they had painstakingly built up over four hundred years, was about to be lost without a fight, Grand Marshal Wattster immediately objected.

"You naughty boy, you are now the king. Your words cannot be changed. Otherwise, how can you gain the trust of others? How can you govern this country?" (Marshal)

"But... (Old Suo)"

"You naughty boy, have you forgotten what you said when you brought us back to Ishgar? (Vanguard)"

"Of course I haven't forgotten, it's just... (Old Suo)"

"You haven't forgotten? That's good! As for the rest, there's no need to say anything more! (Cannon Fodder Number Two)"

"But... (Old Suo)"

His Majesty the King wanted to continue arguing, but when he saw his father's army surrounding him, he decisively swallowed his words and changed his tune, saying, "Alright! I understand, I will stay here."

After securing His Majesty the King, the Marshal ordered the vanguard and others to keep a close watch on him, while she herself went to repair the Yelibell Highlands.

On September 7, X766, after a brief rest, the Thirteenth Heavenly King Guard resumed their advance. With His Majesty the King their spiritual pillar, the Heavenly King Guard's fighting strength and will to fight were greatly enhanced. Thus, six Heavenly King Guard began their sweeping advance towards the capital of Milantes.

As reports of defeats and surrenders poured into the capital, the city of Milantes, the Capital of Thunder, Keppel Sand, was shrouded in an atmosphere of panic.

To avoid repeating the mistakes of the Posco Royal Family, King Milantes rushed to the Magic Council's branch there to inquire about reinforcements from the local leader, Councilor Leo.

"Lord Leo, didn't you say before that the Chairman and the others had decided to send the Restraining Force to reinforce us? Why haven't we seen them arrive yet?"

Upon hearing King Milantes ' question, Leo shook his head with a sorrowful expression, then said weakly, "King Milantes, the reinforcements did arrive, but they were wiped out by the Thirteenth Heavenly King Guard in Haru City!"

After Leo finished speaking, King Milantes jumped up from his chair in shock, exclaiming in astonishment, "Wh... what?"

"Sigh! Zaka, you'd better take the Queen and Princess and leave this place quickly, and go to another country to hide!" (Leo)

King Milantes shook his head blankly, then said, "It's too late. The Thirteenth Heavenly King Guard has completed the encirclement of Kaipel Sand. We can no longer leave here."

"Sigh! Since that's how it is, then we'll just have to accept our fate!" (Leo)

Upon hearing Leo's words, King Milantes quickly approached his councilor and old friend, then reached out and firmly grasped the man's shoulders, shouting loudly, "Leo, even if this batch of reinforcements is wiped out, we can still ask the Chairman for help! We can still ask for help!"

Leo looked up at King Milantes and said, "Zaka, do you know who the reinforcements that were wiped out were?"

"Who is it? (Zaka)"

"The Fourth Restraint Force was wiped out, the Magic Council's most powerful army. Even they couldn't stop the Heavenly King Guard. Do you think there's any point in sending more troops? And even if the Chairman and the others agree to continue sending reinforcements, do you think we can hold out until they arrive? (Leo)"

"Then... before...(Zaka)"

"Previously, the Chairman used the last remaining Space Magic Crystal to activate the array from four hundred years ago to send Leizhi and the others here. But now even the Chairman can't send another army, so..."

Although Leo didn't say what came next, King Milantes had already guessed what it was.

After realizing their predicament, King Milantes released his grip on Leo's shoulders and walked blankly toward the door.

Just then, a thunderous roar from outside the city became the final straw, crushing the once tall and imposing His Majesty the King to the ground. (This is not embellishment; King Milantes truly fell!)

"Listen up, everyone in Kaipel Sand! The Milantes Kingdom has been conquered by our Erus Kingdom! If you don't want your homes and families to be destroyed after the city falls, surrender now!"

"King Milantes, His Majesty has already decreed that if you are willing to surrender, you may be spared your life; otherwise, the Posco Royal Family will serve as a model for your King Milantes!"
