Time passed quickly . Many people began gathering to fight on the duke's behalf . Even after a huge loss, they did not hesitate to join another battle . It was as Jackson and Joonbum had predicted . A hundred and fifty thousand men were now marching toward Khalodian land and there were two thousand merchants closely following the main army . No monsters dared to come close to the army . They were filled with vengeance and eagerness to fight . There had no fear in them . "The canyon is ahead . " "Scouts?" "Three hundred scouts are up ahead, about a half-day distance . " "Any problems?" "No, milord . " "No?" "No, milord . " The duke wasn't convinced as he heard the report . It was too weird . His life experiences told him something was not right . 'There's something wrong here… but I can't make out what . ' Duke Christiole Barisman frowned . "Go check again . Double the scouts and increase the distance to a day . We are dealing with savages who will ambush us in the middle of the night . This is an ideal place for an ambush, so there's no way they will just let us walk through here . Don't miss any of those sniveling savages . We will lay waste to those filthy maggots!" "Yes, milord . " The knight ran out and the other nobles sighed . The duke was still full of rage after all this time . 'They will need at least a few thousand to attempt an ambush, but there's no place to hide such a number . ' 'I guess he is just doing it to be extra cautious . ' The nobles' thoughts raced but they did not talk out loud . The duke, however, turned toward across the canyon . 'We'll reach the Zedra Plains soon . When we get there… I will chew your heart out and rape your mother in front of you . ' The duke's mind was filled with vengeance . His eyes were bloodshot . "They're here! Horun's main army is here! They are in the Gerard Canyon!" The message spread quickly through the soldiers, but they scoffed as they were tired of waiting . "Finally . Those damn dogs . " "They must've been tired traveling all the way here . " "I heard they don't have much food too . " "They will be crawling in the fields once they arrive at the plains . " The soldiers shouted to each other . No one seemed to be afraid even though the enemy outnumbered them by a large margin . In general, this was a crisis to the kingdom . -I quit being a KING!- The news of the Torian king throwing down his crown and shouting at the news of the Horun Empire's attack was now a popular story, but no one blamed him . The country had too many problems in the recent year . There was the death of an important figure that impacted the economy and the neighboring country that Galia attacked . Then, there were monsters attacking all parts of the country followed by volcano eruptions and ashes . Toria barely made it out . It was then that there was news of Count Khalodian's land where food was abundant . Rumors of a crop called corn spread and nobles began asking the count for help . Luckily, the count did not want power for himself so it did not pose a threat . His beautiful, newly acquired wife also made news . But, as with all treasures, it posed more problems . The Torian Kingdom could not afford to wage war against the empire . So, when the country heard of the incoming forces, it decided to pretend it wasn't involved in any of it . 'What's up with this place?' It was only after two days that a man arrived at Khalodian land . He was sent to provide aid to the people . 'Am I hallucinating?' Everyone was looking at the soldiers of the land in confusion . "Why are these people acting like it's nothing? Do they trust the Ainos and the Magnos too much?" "Maybe they trust those rumors?" "Maybe . But aren't those people runaways who used to live in the mountains?" "I don't know . But I guess it's better this way than to shiver in fear . " "Hmm . But I don't see him . " "Who?" "The knight guy . " "Watch your mouth . It's his land . " "Who cares?" Knight Hallis frowned as his fellow knights tried to stop him . "He's about our age! He's just a fool with some cool stuff!" He ranted as he was filled with jealousy . But he saw his friends' expressions change into fear as they looked behind him . Hallis turned and found himself facing Joonbum, who was about a head taller than him, looking down at him while smiling . "I'm sorry for being a fool with some cool stuff . But do you have anything?" Joonbum mocked as Hallis grew red with humiliation . The air turned tense .
