I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 145: Rushing Back to the Capital City
The battle ended with the victory of Mavis' forces. The soldiers of the alliance of the three kingdoms scattered and took an escape step once they learned that Prince Gregor had been killed by the enemy. Not only that, dozens of experts with red plans had fallen and only a handful had managed to escape the chase.
"Buster and Ivar, you no longer need to chase many of them, this amount is enough to build a southern border region." Mavis smiled as she telepathically sent voice messages to the two servants. Right now they were still very excited about chasing after the soldiers who were intending to escape. The two nodded in understanding and stopped as instructed, then turned around to return to where the master was.
The soldier who was out of breath on the enemy side stopped his steps, looking wonderfully at how the two figures who had previously chased after, were no longer interested in them. Either they should be happy or feel humiliated because the two strange creatures no longer chase them. What was clear was that the soldiers had to continue running, timidly the two beings changed their minds and chased after them again.
Lily, Mikaela, and Samantha are seen coming up on top of a creeping plant above ground level, moving with the control abilities of one of them. Before long they descended and instantly positioned themselves half-kow to pay their respects to their master. In addition, they also asked for a decent punishment because they had failed to capture the messenger from the holy temple. Of course, Mavis did not bother about it and told the three servants to relax more.
"This time it looks like I got a big catch. Very well they sent me people of high ability." Mavis smiled with satisfaction when she glanced at the bodies of the dozens of adventurers collected by the shadow creatures.
"We're back at the border." Then Mavis flipped over, then walked towards her riding horse. Each of the shadow creatures carried back the bodies of the experts and followed the prince away, as well as the soldiers from the twin tower empire, as well as the goblins and dwarves.
While it was on another battlefield, precisely in the southern region of the kingdom, the red-planned adventurers who came from the Baratajaya Kingdom had managed to defeat all the experts from the alliance of the three kingdoms. But unfortunately they do not feel satisfied instead of having to bear the shame. Because just a moment ago they only realized that some of the strength of the adventurers they were fighting had suddenly disappeared, and it happened not just one or two but the entirety of them.
Hearing the report he had just received from the adventurers, King Cornelius fell silent and ran out of words. He really did not expect it to be that easy to get into the trap the enemy had set up. The king felt guilty for making the wrong decision, at first he thought when intercepting enemy troops in the south, he said, that would prevent more casualties and damage than if the battle had taken place in the territory of the royal capital.
"The main focus of the enemy from the beginning was not the battle of life and death on this open land, but directly stormed towards the royal capital to take power by force. This kind of tactic was also not once twice used in battles between kingdoms in the eastern continent, but why I ...." The king fell into deep thought.
Kayle who knew the mood of the king walked over and began to comfort him. "Your Majesty, they'll be fine. It is still not too late to defend the royal capital, now it is better that we immediately bring the troops back to the capital."
King Cornelius immediately ordered the entire army to withdraw and return to the capital as soon as possible, hoping that it was not too late to protect the inhabitants living in it. The king's face was pale and agitated when he imagined what might happen to his family left behind in the capital, especially his favorite son Asta and also the queen who has just recovered from his illness. He would absolutely not forgive himself if something bad happened to them.
"Miss Lily, hang on." On the other hand Prince Arslan who was in the same line as the adventurers, without anyone knowing had his own worries at heart. The man followed the direction of the king to rush back to the royal capital.
The prince from the north basically did not doubt the ability of the woman he admired, which he already knew was very strong. It's just that if faced with the large number of troops deployed by the alliance of three kingdoms, the capital of the Kingdom of Srivijaya will certainly not have hope to survive. Not to mention that the red-planned adventurers from the enemy side they had fought before were only a diversion, while the original ones were definitely in the main army that was moving towards the royal capital.
