My King System Chapter 89
Advertisement
In the castle looking structure which Theophill resided in, the preparations for the battle were nearing their end. Theophill walked around back and forth in worry. While he didn't personally care for losing people's lives. He cared about how their kingdom's economy would be impacted if they were to alot a large amount of casualties. It would lower worker morale as well as have the potential to set back the kingdom's growth for a whole generation if they weren't able to increase their population.
Theophill scratched his head in anger and sat on his bed. He was in one of the castle bedrooms which he decided to make his own.
"If we refuse to cooperate, the two other kingdoms will merge forces and attack us. However if we do go to assist them in the battle, we'll lose a lot of people as well," Theophill said to himself.
"Which one would allow us to develop more? If we were to help them and win, it could lead to great trade relashintions as well as having the opportunity to have them help us rebuild? But how do we deal with the emotional scars that the death of their loved ones will cause to the women and children?" Theophill asked himself.
"Sacrifices must be made," said Theophill as he sighed with hope in his eyes.
Right as he said that, he heard a knock at the door. Theophill quickly stood up from his royal bed and began to walk towards the door. As he opened it, he was greeted by one of his guards.
"The preparations have been completed, sire," the guard said to Theophill.
"I'll be there shortly," said Theophill before closing the door and equipping himself with his personal armour. Once Theophill was fully armoured, he left the castle-like structure before getting on a horse that was already waiting for him outside. Without exchanging words with anyone, Theophill rode the horse to the kingdom gates. The order to open the gates had been given that day as to allow the kingdom's military to wait outside.

Theophil passed through the small army which he had gathered to fight in the battle. However he and one other person were the only two people on horseback.
"You can lead us to Yuki using your ability, right Fulco?"Theophill asked.
"Yes sire," Fulco replied.
Hearing this, Theophill raised his sword in the air before bringing it down to point forward. This signaled to the small army that it was time to start heading towards the battle ground in preparation of the upcoming battle.
"The note Scar sent said that Yuki should still be in the dungeon for a few more days. That would be in the best case scenario. Let's just hope nothing goes wrong for us," Theophill said to himself.
"All this trouble for one kid. This world is much more painful to deal with than I anticipated," Theophill thought to himself as they continued to slowly ride their horses-following Fulco to the dungeon gate which Yuki would eventually exit out of.
Elsewhere, A large group of people sat down cross legged on the grass. Each one of them wore a white blind fold. They were the grounds that were to be executed by Rey Moon. They didn't know that event would occur. All of them assumed that they would be let roam the world freely once more once this had gone by. While some had grown bored of waiting for the day when they would be allowed to live freely once more, a majority of them still awaited eagerly.
A figure sat down with his legs stretched out and back leaning on a large tree which was near the end of the cliff with his eyes closed. That man was Rey Moon. Other than him, 2 other people were there to make sure that no one escaped. One was a woman which looked to be in her late 30s. Her clothing was bland as it just regular black sweatpants along with a large turtle neck. Her fashion sense was clearly bizarre. In her hand an Astra A-60 pistol.

The other person who stood there was a man who looked to be no older than 23. He wore a chief costume as such he was most likely the one responsible for providing food for the prisoners as well as Rey Moon and the guard lady.
No one spoke for most of the day. Everyone who was located on the cliff usually kept to themselves. The only sound they heard was either the wind whistling or the birds chirping. On Rey Moon's chest sat a flip phone which closely resembled the one which Scar had. Rey Moon was waiting for Scar to give the message to launch the plan into action.
Scar himself was busy at his own kingdom which he recently took over. Scar, along with Jing and the group of mercenaries which were hired were conversing in the conference room which each caste structure had within every kingdom. It closely resembled the conference room which the kingdom's council had used to plan their attack strategy in the kingdom which Yuki, Scar, Carmi and the others were originally from.
"Jing will stay here with me for now. The rest of you-go and find anyone who looks to be useful in battle. If they refuse, just demonstrate the large gap in power between you and them. Force them to join if you have to," said Scar.
"I have to end things here. I've tried multiple times before but this is the last time I'll allow him to speak down to me. I'll bring him down myself if I have to," Scar thought to himself as he grit his teeth.
Hearing his command, the mercenaries left the room and ran around the kingdom as they recruited anyone who looked to be capable of fighting. Scar never specified whether it had to be a male or female however the group of mercenaries chose to spare any woman and children of the duty of battle. This wasn't because they saw them to be less valuable in the battle however because the children would be the future of the kingdom and the woman would raise those same children.
Everything was coming together. It wouldn't be much longer until Yuki would have to face all the enemies he had made.
