《Game of Divine Thrones》Book 3 Chapter 63 - Prelude to War (2)

“Please reconsider, Commander Maximus.”
“I can’t go against the King’s orders, Count Huntington. Even if there is indeed a rebellion as you say.”
“What if it isn’t the King’s direct orders that you are receiving, but instead those that have been tampered with by the rebels? Could you go against them then?”
“I have sent a messenger to the King, perhaps it will arrive before the rebels take up arms.”
Commander Maximus wouldn’t listen to reason. The Count could only sigh helplessly, as he watched him lead his entire army back to the East Guard Camp.
“That’s quite unfortunate, we really needed Maximus in order to fight off the rebel army.”
“There’s nothing to worry about, we have the nobles from Arpen and Ashton that have already pledged themselves to our cause.
It was a war where both sides had a similar sized army. The only problem would be the decline in morale upon learning of King John’s death by poisoning which was what occurred back then.
They would have to prepare for this moment in advance, so that they don’t collapse once the figurehead of the loyalist faction is gone.
“At least he wasn’t sent too far away. The Eastern Guard camp is the closest of Marquis Nelson’s bases to here in Hayswick.”
Currently, there was no other place to ask for reinforcements other than the kingdom’s army.
Marquis Nelson’s stance was that he stayed out of politics, only focusing...

A (Not So) Simple Fetch Quest
Oh great hero! The evil Demon Lord has once again arisen to terrorise our lands, and we have summoned you to save our people! No, we don't want you to fight the demon lord! Of course not; we're the good guys! What sort of good guys kidnap people from other worlds and force them to take part in wars that have nothing to do with them? That would just be plain evil! We'd be no better than the demons! Katie, after her summoning by an excessively loud mage suddenly takes an unexpected twist, is sent off on a simple fetch quest, with a promise that she'll be back home in five minutes at most. She doesn't even need to leave the building. Alas, when a goddess' blessing causes her wish for an actual adventure to be taken rather more literally than she expected, she finds herself lost in a dark cave, far away from the sword she was supposed to acquire and far too close to a population of giant bugs. Still, at least she wished her life wasn't in any danger. Among other things. Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it. This is a dark litRPG adventure, both in terms of Katie accidentally wishing all the lights out, and also in that she loses as often as she wins, often with horrific and disturbing consequences. Luckily, Katie isn’t the sort of person to let a mere grizzly death or two get her down, and is prepared to try, try and try again to get her hands on the holy sword and finally complete her ‘simple’ fetch quest. Or perhaps—with a few resistance skills under her nightie—she might even come to enjoy losing. Not that she’d ever consider forgoing revenge, even if she did. I’ve ticked all the content warning checkboxes for this one. There’s no explicit sexual content, but there are enough references to justify the warning. Profanity happens rarely, but Katie isn’t averse to swearing when she gets particularly angry. As for gore/trauma, it doesn’t get much worse than the first few chapters, but there will be occasional chapters that have extra content warnings.

For a thousand years, humanity has been confined behind the large, overarching walls that protect them from the outside world. It is said that before the age within the walls, humanity ruled the world, overpowering the creatures of this land with their overwhelming magical ability. However, now humanity is but a shell of its former self, forced to live within walls that only hold a few thousand people, only sending out a select skilful few each year to explore the world beyond the walls. Most never return, and those who do bring back scars, both physical and mental. The curiosity that humankind possesses is an ember that no matter how small it glows, will never truly fade.
