CRIMINALS ARE MY SPONSORS
Battle of Wolven Glade (1)

Wolven Glade, a swamp located right in the middle of Windrain City and Dabika Village.

This glade was famous as the habitat of Warg, Sword Wolf and even rumors sounded of the Giant Sword Wolf inhabiting it.

It was a sunny day in the swamp, as the sun shone brightly in the sky, many Royal soldiers, with cheap bandit hooded shirts, pelt armor camped near the Wolven Glade, the, while some hired mercenaries were also presented, the weapon they liked was in hand .

"Damn!, how many Warg are hiding in this swamp!" complaining the mercenary came out of the swamp his body was covered in blood, as he carried Warg dead on his shoulder, as he complained to the man nearby.

"It's better for us Drake, don't be lazy and let's hunt more after that we take a meal break, it's good for practice" said another mercenary, while slightly knocking on the head of a mercenary named Drake.

"marr! Teacher!, I don't know if I will really become strong by killing this weak Warg." Drake said a little arrogantly, as his teacher looked at him with a slightly disappointed face.

"dumb student! How many times do I have to remind you, never underestimate someone weaker than you, .. always remember, you are almighty in your own eyes, you used to be weak like them! so, is there any chance they can't be as omnipotent as you?"

"The cheh! I know, I know teacher, anyway ... I heard your son's seventh birthday is coming soon? what will you give her on her birthday?" drake asked, while the teacher rubbed his chin.

"I was planning to hire a swordsman to teach him the sword, I heard from my wife, she was interested in the sword."

"What's? Hiring a swordsman?! Isn't that expensive?"

"Yes, that's why I took this mission from the Kingdom, so I can get the gold to hire a swordsman" said the teacher, as he is just an ordinary person, he did not have the status to actually order a swordsman to teach his son the way of the sword, and they would also obviously charge above average prices to hire themselves.

"Ahh, then teacher, you can also take my reward from this mission, at least that's what I can do for you."

"What!? ...No way, I can take money from my student—"

"I insist!"

"I owe you too much my life teacher, when I was a beggar crawling through the slums to get a drop of water, feed me and also let me join your mercenary group." Drake's sentence, makes it a bit difficult for the teacher to fight his claim.

"Also, Why don't you, Take that as a gift from me to your son, right?"

"Huh! All righty! I will accept it." said the Master, as if he really did not want to take money from his student, he was so underfunded, he could only feel grateful and accept it with a hint of guilt.

"Heheh, Master cheer! I'm sure when he grows up as a good swordsman, he will repay me" Drake said, with a cheerful face, as other mercenaries suddenly came rushing towards them.

"Huff! Huff! Where's Boss?! Boss!"

"Huh? What happened to Kedro, weren't you with Miche's team to explore the swamp?" asked the teacher/boss, upon seeing the panicked Kedro, one of the members of his mercenary team rushed towards him, his face filled with horror.

"This.. It's about the swamp! We met the Giant Saber Wolf in the swamp! The leader is holding the wolves, help us need reinforcements!" yelled Kedro, making all the strongholds rise from the comfort zone.

"What ! Mercenary what are you saying! is that true?! are you sure?!" suddenly a tall, burly man, with a mustache asked.

"Yes, Mr Knight! Please we have to get reinforcements immediately, otherwise Miche's team won't be able to get out alive" Kedro said worriedly, as they were all his friends, even though he escaped from there, it was only to inform the camp, and get reinforcements.

The Great Sword Wolf, was an A rank beast.he was known for his ferocious attacks and had intelligence in controlling the Swords Wolf herd.

"No! We cannot face the Great Sword Wolf directly! Soldier! Quickly prepare the shield and make a fence!"

"As your command!"

"You mercenaries! go make a crop trap!'" the Knight's orders in command, completely ignoring the mercenary's face.

"Hey! Did you not listen to my orders, you maggots!"

"Stop Kedro, We're sorry Mr. Knight, but for us mercenaries .. members of our team are like family members, we can't leave them, We'll help them" Razor said, the leader of the mercenaries, as he quickly started rushing into the swamp, was followed by Drake, Kedro, and the other mercenaries.

"Damn you fucking mercenary! Soldier! go trap plants near us!"

"As your orders, Sir!" soon, the soldiers began to set traps near the vicinity of the camp.

Meanwhile, a human figure was floating in the sky with a grin on his face.

"Heh, internal conflict ... They are really a lively bunch" said the floating figure, as it quickly flew towards Dabika Village.

...

The village of Dabika, a village whose population reaches 500 people, is a small amount for a village, but because they are located near the wilderness ... they can adjust this number in the village.

Though, today's village was a little beautiful, as two commanders from the Empire had come to get rid of the bandit trouble there.

Currently, the two Western Faction Battalion Commanders, Stone Town were in the village.

They sat in the Village Chief's house, while the Village Chief stood in front of them.

"Mr David, Miss Froza.When will the Commander-in-Chief come?" asked the old Village Chief, while David remained silent, as Froza gave him a cold annoyed look, making the village chief immediately shut his mouth.

Thump!

Suddenly, the door of the house opened, revealing the appearance of a 13-year-old boy, though he was still 10 years old, the Legion Commander's badge hung on his right side.the uniform, due to his sparkling golden blonde hair, mesmerizing sea-blue eyes, suited him with the uniform.

"respect to! Legion Commander, Sir Alard!"

"respect to! Legion Commander, Mr. Alard!" the two Battalion Commanders, immediately saluted the military.

While the Village Chief was almost dumbfounded, a 13-year-old was actually an esteemed Legion Commander?

Has the Empire gone mad or is he the only one who went mad here?

"Oi, old man do you disrespect the Commander, where is your manners!" suddenly Froza's cold voice entered the ear of the old man's head, as his entire body trembled, as soon as he fell to his knees.

"I'm so sorry for my lack of manners! I greet the esteemed Legion Commander! and welcome him to our humble village!"

"Hmm, no need to be too polite and hard, Old Man, half your feet are already in your coffin... Don't want your other foot in your coffin today? right?" alard said, when the old chieftain understood what he meant, his old body could not help but sweat soaking up his cheap cloth.

"Haha, there's no need to sweat a lot old man, I'm kidding ... You still have a few days left" Alard said with a small laugh, as the chieftain did not know whether to smile or cry about this.

"By the way, move on to the next point ... Miss Froza has arranged all the troops?"

"Yes, Sir! All 200 Swordsmen, 100 Spears, 100 Archers, 100 Shields are ready and waiting for your next command!" said Froza, his posture was straight, while his voice was full of strength.

"Good!, Sir David will take over 100 Swordsmen and 100 Archers, Miss Froza will take over 100 Spears and 100 Shield! I'll order the remaining 100!"

"Yes Sir! exclaiming the two loudly, the village chief was still kneeling, amazed by the young man's attitude in front of him.

This boy in front of him was no less than a 13-year-old boy, but his authority and attitude were completely different from his appearance, it was like a great general leading his army in war.

"Good, then quickly start marching towards the Wolven Glade!"

"Yes sir!" exclaimed the two, as the two of them started marching forward with the troops they were commanding.

As, Alard also then began marching, 100 swordsmen behind him.
