Still Loved Even In The New World
CHAPTER 145: The Arrival of War.

Several days have passed since my meeting with His Majesty. My sister and I lived in the house I lived in when I was first brought to Moon Palace.

There were no other activities I could do during my stay in this place, so I just spent my time walking around the city. It was only then that I realized, that it was almost impossible to explore the entire city on foot. The city is very large, but also very quiet.

I don't see a single person living in this town. Although there were, they were definitely workers at one of the Moon Palace facilities, such as: Forging, knights, and other occupations that were under Moon Palace directly. There are no normal residents who work in the fields or other personal work like in other places.

I even guessed that the Moon Palace was actually the residence of the palace workers, not the common residence of the people. I also noticed that many of his houses were not in residence because of the population being too sparse. Probably out of 1000 buildings, only one is occupied.

What amazes me is not only the city's extraordinary architecture, but also its soldiers who always carry out their duties in a very orderly and meticulous. They do not waste time doing things outside of their duties. They will just relax after the task is finished and rest in some bars that have been provided. Very different from the soldiers I've seen, while on duty, the soldiers in the kingdom, most of them would stop by at some tavern while on duty. It's never quite like at Moon Palace.

I also visited one of the bars that the soldiers used to visit after duty. The bar was very neat, many soldiers sat down and ordered drinks. The soldiers laughed and joked, just like the soldiers in general. In fact, some extremely gallant warriors had a plate of cake in front of them.

I sat down with Lusi, while the others, they were looking for their own seats. There were even my men who sat down together with the Moon Palace warriors.

"excuse me, this lady, are you going to order something?."

As soon as I sat down, there was a male servant approaching me. The waiter asked politely, but the question confused me. Ordering?, what can I order?. I don't even know what's in this place.

I glanced at some of the guests who had already booked from the beginning. I noticed that many ordered food and drinks.

Aneria:"Can I order some food and drinks?."

"of course. So what will you order?."

Aneria:"I, I don't know what's in this place, so..."

I said with shame. I also noticed the maid's face, there was a strange glint in her eyes as soon as she listened to what I said. The waiter seemed to understand something and smiled at me.

"So it's like that. Looks like you're one of those immigrants."

The waiter stepped forward near our table and suddenly the table glowed, showing a row of pictures and writings that I could not recognize.

"By draining mana to the table, the table will automatically show what menus are available in this place."

Aneria:"But... I don't recognize the writing on this table."

"That's no problem either. You just touch this part and write something with a magic pen that has been provided under the table."

Following the servant's words, I picked up a pen and wrote a few words. After the writing is finished, the writing and the picture on the table disappear, replaced with a drawing of a circle that continues to rotate. After a few seconds, the image appears again. It's just that, at this moment the writing on the table turned into writing that I recognized.

Aneria:"Alright, then... I want something called strawberry cake and a drink... Is there anything that is not alcoholic?."

I saw a list of drinks that all had alcohol in them. This is in a foreign place. I don't know what would happen if I got drunk.

"We have many different types of mocktails."

Finally after a while of discussion and asking the waiter, I was able to decide to order something whose name was difficult for me to pronounce.

Susi:"Here, everything is very sophisticated. There's a lot of technology we don't know about, Your Honor."

Lucia whispered to me. Well, that's true. There are many strange technologies that we do not know, as if our world and Moon Palace are very far apart.

The food and drinks we ordered came quickly. As Lusi and I were eating, we suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. A short-haired blue knight girl came in and immediately sat down on a chair near the liquor mix.The female knight looked haggard and was extremely exhausted, very different from the blue knight I had seen.

"Give me a glass of Virgin Mary."

The knight ordered while putting his head on the table. He looked spiritless with dark circles around his eyes. Seeing the tired knight, the brewer brewed a drink that the knight had ordered.

"Miss Seren, is there a problem?. It's rare to see you order a nonalcoholic."

While concocting a drink, the concocter asked the knight named Seren casually. Hearing the question of the brewer, Seren raised his head with a frown.

Seren:"Well... I'm so tired. I have a lot of work to prepare for these few days. Besides, I also have to do something after this, so I can't drink alcoholic beverages."

"Oh, is there going to be something. I noticed that the palace knights are getting busier these days."

Seren:"You have good eyes. Lately there is a lot of work to be done, especially me as a commander, I need to prepare my troops to prepare for the coming war."

Hearing Seren's knight's reply, the bartender seemed interested. Not only was the bartender, I was also very interested in the news. Perhaps the news that the knight would bring was related to the war that His Majesty had said at that time.

"Oh, war?."

Seren:"Well, war. They dared to oppose His Majesty, so it seems like His Majesty is a little displeased. So, Your Majesty started to move the troops."

"Is it just because His Majesty isn't happy?."

Hearing the question from the brewer, Seren thought for a moment and answered.

Seren:"Not really. Maybe the real reason was because of the ruins that were there. Do you remember those lowly people who were brought here a few days ago?."

His words were filled with contempt and disgust towards outsiders, but I didn't care much about it. I care more about the news he brings.

I've guessed that Your Majesty won't act only with an ego. I'm sure Your Majesty's assault has another reason. And the news brought by the blue knight confirmed my guess.

"Yes, I remember."

Seren:"Someone of them gave the embryonic soul to His Majesty, so His Majesty guessed that the ruins there might be the remains of a first-rate guild or even a super guild."

The movement of the brewer stopped and looked at Seren with a surprised look. I don't know what Soul embryos are, but from their behavior, I can probably guess that it is a precious thing.

"Huh... If so, then it looks like we will make a huge profit. Maybe even we can get one of the new great generals."

Seren:"No need to be possible. The embryonic soul that that person gave him was already a God's Seed, so it only needed incubation and there would be another strong knight in the Moon Palace."

"It is only fitting that His Majesty wants to attack the place immediately... This I give free to you, thanks for the news."

The brewer handed a glass filled with red liquid to the knight Seren.

Seren:"Oh, thank you."

Seren sipped his drink gracefully and sighed with pleasure, seeming to enjoy the drink very much.

"What...!. Even the great general will move?."

Seren:"Well, I don't know what she looks like. I only heard a little news from the commander."

Some conversations after that are not very important. Knight Seren just finished his drink and left to return to his duties. Lusi and I and the others also left after eating.

At first I had forgotten that the bargaining tools in this place were different, fortunately the silver wing emblems I received from His Majesty could be used, so my drinks and food were free.

.....

A few days later, I got a call from the palace. I went to fulfill that call. I met with His Majesty and discussed a few things. This time we did not meet in the Throne room, but in a very large room.

The room itself has five levels, each level filled with various books, towering up to the ceiling. Looking at the appearance of this room, it seemed like this was a library of the palace.

It's just, the scenery I saw was completely different from the library in general, the library was bright with a beige wall and there was a giant tree in the middle. The tree produced the light that became the source of illumination in this library. What a unique and strange sight.

I saw a chair next to the tree. Compared to a tree, the chair looks very small. In the chair sat a little girl reading a book.

Aneria:"Your Majesty."

I called the girl and waited for her to respond. His Holiness Philia looked up and saw me. He beckoned me to sit next to him.

I don't know what His Majesty wants, but I still obey him.

Filia:"In the meantime, the war will be raging, I want to make the Dragon Kingdom our first foothold, what do you think?."

It does sound like asking for my opinion, but it's actually possible that His Majesty is telling me his plan. Nevertheless, I still have to answer the question.

Aneria:"I have no problem with that, but is it good?. Our kingdom is a remote place and it is also difficult to reach towards other kingdoms. Isn't that not optimal for expansion?."

Filia:"Well, I know all that. You don't need to worry, I've prepared a suitable plan. What I want to hear is, what if you lead my army to conquer the small countries around it, are you capable?."

I was amazed by what I heard. Lead army?. Did Your Majesty ask me as a front spear in the expansion of his plan?.

His Majesty looked at me and then smiled a little.

Filia: "You don't have to think too much. Our war objective is the Xuan Ming Empire. For the small country and its vassal state, I want you to take care of it. I don't want to deal with those small countries, but if I don't take care of them, those small countries will probably become thorns. So are you capable?."

If it is like that, then the task I do will be much lighter. But, that task would also be more troublesome. I can guess that His Majesty's goal is to conquer the surrounding small countries so that there will be no seeds of resistance in the future. But to clear the seed of resistance, it would definitely press on for quite a long time.

And again, maybe the task was too trivial for Moon Palace, so His Majesty handed the task to me. Moreover, I better understand the geographical location and topographical state of each country which will greatly shorten the time.

With the help of the Moon Palace troops, I believe I can carry out that task. This is also my chance to show my strength in front of His Majesty.

Aneria:"If you believe in me, I will definitely not disappoint you, Your Majesty."

Filia:"Good, I believe in you."

His Majesty stood up and tidied up his clothes.

Philia:"We will leave in seven days, make sure that you are ready. I'll take you to the main battlefield."

Aneria:"Yes, Your Majesty."

.....

As His Majesty said, Seven days later, we all gathered in a very large field. Around me stood many knights. There are five different groups of people.

Each group consisted of about 200,000 knights who differed in appearance and armor. I was in the line of Silver-armored Knights who looked like normal people. The group next to us were knights with red armor with sharp spurs in parts. The person wearing the armor was also strange, they were large-bodied and about three meters tall, with a huge horn on his head.

I can't name them one by one, but if I sum them all up, I estimate that the number of all the soldiers gathered is at least not less than a million soldiers. This number is very much.

Needless to say, even the Dragon Kingdom only had a total of less than 900,000 warriors. You can imagine the big difference between the two. However, even though that number was large when compared to Xuan Ming Empire, it was still too small. I've heard that there are at least four million soldiers there. Although perhaps the news was not true, but at least the amount would not be far from it.

All the soldiers standing in the field seemed to be field soldiers, so included the common soldiers. This soldier was so calm and just stood upright like a statue.

A while later, His Majesty came in escorted by the blue knight. His Majesty came to the eight troops with striking gold armor.

Philia:"This war is our beginning to reconquer this land. I hope you'll be proud to be on the battlefield. For me, for the Moon Palace, for the other four rulers, and for yourself, fight for the future."

"For the future....!."

"For the future..!!"

".....!!"

Shouts and exclamations echoed like they would shake the ground and the sky. His Majesty looked at me and gestured me to come with him. I went forward and stood among the blue knights escorting His Majesty.

Philia:"Move...!."

After His Majesty's cry, the field darkened, like something was covering the sun, as I looked up to look at the sky, I saw a very shocking sight. Five gigantic ships several thousand meters long and hundreds of ships hundreds of meters long floated above the entire city. Before he could admire the entire scene, a flash of light suddenly covered my vision.

As soon as my vision returned to normal, I found that I had already moved into the ship. I was in the same room as His Majesty. Besides us, in this room there was also Miss Arkne and the others I had seen in the Throne room at that time.

What caught my attention the most were the five figures whose bodies were covered by light so it was impossible to see the figure inside.

Even though I had never heard of them, I might have guessed that they were the five great generals that the blue knight said at the bar back then.

I saw His Majesty sitting on the throne, his closed eyes suddenly opened, I could see three-colored pupils glowing like torches.

I've seen those eyes, those were the eyes when His Majesty fought with that monster. Those eyes indicate that His Majesty is being serious.

The war is coming soon...

(The end of this chapter).

Happy enjoying....
