After the spar with the Galhala King ends, lots of nobles and soldiers swarmed Druid Oz drowning him in praises. Since Druid Oz had gotten engaged towards Claria, the well-respected general and princess of the kingdom, most of the generals and nobles had dropped the thought of making him marry their daughters.
While some of them still offered Druid Oz to take their daughters to be his mistress or concubine, they all got refused by Claria in Druid Oz’s stead.
Because Druid Oz displayed his strength at the spar with the Galhala King, all of the soldiers, generals, and nobles had come to respect and admire him. All of them had accepted the fact that Claria had fallen to a strong person befitting to be the man of the great general princess of the Galhala Kingdom.
After the commotion ends, the combined training finally started.
Druid Oz was quite shocked and impressed when he saw Claria proficiently lead the combined training. It turns out that even the generals and strong nobles of the kingdom fear and respect the general princess.
Under the education of both the Galhala King and Queen, Claria managed to be a great princess and general loved by all of the citizens of the Galhala Kingdom. Her beauty, strength, leadership, and knowledge are well-known throughout not only the kingdom but to the other kingdoms and empires of the Eastaria continent as well.
While in the other hand, Charnia is training together with the magic beasts’ children.
Druid Oz’s role in the combined training is to let his strong familiars be the training partner of the soldiers to test their formation. Druid Oz thought there will be a huge gap of strength between the royal soldiers and the nobles’ soldiers, but it’s not.
Each noble house has its own strategy and fighting style, but their strength is not that far from the royal soldiers. Druid Oz saw the Galhala King conversed with the other nobles, he’s not like a king talking to his servants, but it’s like a soldier talking with his comrades. He’s laughing and conversing joyfully while still put some formality for the soldiers to see.
But Druid Oz could feel the kinship that describes the great solidarity of the whole kingdom. Not only the citizens, but even the nobles and the royals have a beautiful relationship with each other.
“What a beautiful country this is…” Muttered Druid Oz as he suddenly missed the Tarot empire and his other comrades.
He had been avoiding them since the Slime clone is taking the role of replacing the presence of their original, but the other reason is that he is scared of getting treated differently from the original.
“Of course, it’s a country my family had been protecting throughout our lives, after all,” Replied Claria as she appeared beside Druid Oz and watched the soldiers train together.
“Indeed…” (Druid Oz)
(They’re not rotten like a country filled with humans. This kind of country…) (Druid Oz)
“This kind of kingdom… I will make sure it won’t befall to any harm,” (Druid Oz)
*********************************
“*Phew!* That was tiring,” Muttered Druid Oz as he lay his back on the sofa.
“Now, let’s see how much they’ve got,” Muttered Druid Oz as he stared at the Eastaria continent’s map on top of the table.
Druid Oz reestablish his connections with his familiars and instructed them to report in for any important things.
Until this moment, even with the number of his summoned insects that keep on increasing, Druid Oz could only investigate thoroughly up to 6% of the continent in search for the demon emperor’s seal, while his summoned insect scouts idly wait in several points and surrounded the Galhala Kingdom in a radius of 100 km, ready to report if an enemy or army is going to attack the Galhala Kingdom.
The current enemy is troublesome since the demons attacking them are infected by some kind of a demonic disease that could transform anyone who got even a scratch by it. Druid Oz couldn’t let any of his familiars get even a single scratch from the demons, so he’s taking the safest measure.
Since the number of summoned insects is increasing at a terrifying pace, Druid Oz used them the most since they could swarm and feed the demons at the same time. Druid Oz’s other magic beast familiars’ task focuses on guarding and protecting the Galhala kingdom while some of the summoned insects attack some of the demons outside the region as well. Druid Oz’s magic beasts somehow could resist the demonic infection and won’t transform into a demon even if they’re injured.
(That might be the effect of the [Druid’s Servant] skill) (Druid Oz)
Other than his summoned insects, Druid Oz also possesses some undead from the ‘Jack of All Trades’. They hold powerful strength as individuals, but Druid Oz’s focus is on his summoners. Druid Oz had been instructing them to summon their undead pawn soldiers as much as they could daily to guard the Galhala Kingdom’s perimeter.
The summoned undead pawn soldiers will dig the ground and bury themselves in the ground, waiting for the order to come out and fight. The first reason is for a surprise attack, while the other reason is to not scare the citizens of the kingdom.
There are already about 300,000 undead pawn soldiers buried all across the outer region of the kingdom, while 50,000 are kept by Druid Oz inside a near cave to be an active army used to ambush the demons that get near the perimeter. Since the soldiers
Because of the number of demonic corpses that keep on increasing, the undead under Druid Oz’s command had been devouring their demonic mana and keep on getting stronger each day. Not only getting stronger, but the undead summoner could also replenish their dark mana quickly and continue to summon the undead pawn soldiers, and increasing their forces.
Druid Oz also sent some of his summoned insects to scout into some kingdoms near the Galhala kingdom. And finally, one of the groups managed to enter a kingdom near the Galhala Kingdom.
The Simalia Kingdom.
“I-Impossible!” Druid Oz exclaimed as he saw the scenes transmitted from the summoned insects’ eyes.
The group of blood mosquitos Druid Oz sent didn’t found any life inside the kingdom. The houses are still intact, only the kingdom’s castle that is in a terrible state. The fact that not only there is no life, but there are also no corpses as well terrified Druid Oz.
“Did they evacuate? No, if they want to evacuate, they must have asked the Galhala King for help…” (Druid Oz)
Druid Oz tries to think of any other possibilities as he instructed his summoned insects to go further to investigate, but the result remains the same. No life and no corpses were found.
“Don’t tell me…” Druid Oz muttered to himself as he hoped that the worst-case scenario he’s thinking is not happening.
Different from human countries, the Owlfolk countries could exist and stand firmly without having any relations with other kingdoms or empires. There is no need for businesses since their regions have more than plenty of resources for them to be self-sufficient.
Because of that, conversations between kingdoms happened only once a year or even in several years. That is the reason why the Galhala king and the prime minister, Allomere didn’t really matter the fact that the other kingdom isn’t answering their call and messages since most of the kingdoms are not really friendly towards each other.
The prime minister, Allomere might have the same thought as Druid Oz that passed his head, but it seems that he set that matter aside, focusing on the kingdom’s internal strength.
But the problem is not about how and why the Simula kingdom got wiped out and have no people or even corpses inside the kingdom.
The problem is…
“Just how many citizens had got transformed into a demon… Just how many more demons had appeared from all of those citizens…” Druid Oz muttered his fear.
If the kingdom had 400,000 citizens, then it means that the demons had gotten 400,000 demons into their ranks. And it’s only if the Simula kingdom is the only one who got wiped out by the demons.
What if the other kingdoms had gotten wiped out by the demons as well?
Just how many demons had gathered in their ranks?
It could be one million, it could be even more.
If they transformed even half of the continent into demons, just how many demons will it be?
“Should I request for backup…?” (Druid Oz)
