The Young King's Great Ambition
Chapter 27: Waiting for Results

The elite militia was separated into two units, the archer unit and the Javelin thrower.

During the day with the weather in support, they set off towards the lair of the thunderbird.

Rhogan and Rovan along with the royal soldiers are tasked to protect them during the final exam.

Dashing in line with their group, Rhogan stood in front of them and said something before starting the test.

"Here, in the lair of the thunderbird, you will take the test to the third stage, you all have passed and will be made warriors, but we must test you in the last stage,"

All the militias were nervous, they broke out in cold sweat, held their weapons tightly and prepared for a trial involving their lives.

"Thunderbird is a high level monster, the most powerful in this kingdom and they rule the royal sky and even they dare to fight the dragon, the kingdom used to try to conquer them and make them mounts for the military, the,but they fail because they are strong"

Rhovan's explanation makes them even more fearful, but they remain alert and set their hearts.

"Don't be afraid, the king gathers you to become an army that can kill monsters, so when there are enemies who use monsters for war, we can kill them, he said,after I say this I hope you will keep a secret, for you are a military unit formed by the king and aimed to shake the world" Rovan said excitedly

Rovan leaked a little of his king's plan, they were proud to know their army was formed by the king directly to be a monster elimination, they were calmer when there was an official army of the kingdom who watched and protected them.

"Now come with me to get into their lair to kill only one Thunderbird!, certainly the biggest one" cried Rhogan

The militia entered the lair of the thunderbird calmly, they looked around the nest with full vigilance, they were holding their weapons in a ready position.

After going deeper, they did not find a herd of thunderbirds, what's the biggest, they only found one thunderbird that is not too big, Rogan also immediately gave an aba for attack

"Art is ready!"

Hearing Rhogan's cry, the Thunderbird woke up, the archers gathered in a row and released many arrows, the big bird just took out its wings and let out a lightning bolt that scorched the arrow.

"Javeliners forward!" Shouted Rovan

The javelins were carrying shields and short spears on their backs, they threw them with their magic energy at the tip of the short spear.

The thrown javelin was repelled by lightning, but two javelins managed to hit the big bird.

The big bird was injured, as he let out a loud groaning sound until there were several thunderbirds coming.

The archers moved again, many arrows were released to dispel the thunderbird

The javeliners tried to kill the thunderbird while the archers repelled the incoming Thunderbird flock.

The militiamen fled quickly carrying the corpse of a thunderbird twice the size of the human body, when the bird died, they cut off its wings with the archers' spare weapon, the short sword.

The royal troops were buying time for the militias, they were retreating, the royal troops brought in for testing were all archers and some witches to help.

After they were on the verge of death from encountering a thunderbird, they managed to return to the capital.

The militiamen were taken to the great barracks again for rest, and tomorrow they would meet the king at the palace.

All they did was use the thunderbird's body as a cooking ingredient for them to eat, and there were rations to share with their families.

Meanwhile, Fermund was observing several papers containing information about the development of the weapon, and everyone involved in the production was investigated.

The butler's grandfather stands beside his right and Fermund writes a letter to Juvel.

Fermund wrote a message to create each of the 690 pieces for lightning arrows and wind javelins, as well as light armor combined with body enhancement magic.

Fermund put his letter in an envelope and sealed it with a liquid candle stamped with the royal emblem.

The Night Raven members who were Fermund's eyes, to supervise the production of the weapon immediately sent the letter to Juvel.

He always exchanged letters with Juvel to see the development of his production run smoothly.

From this morning after the prototype test until noon, it still only produced eighties of magical weapons made.

Rather than Fermund getting tired of waiting, he better read the information from the weapon maker entrusted by Juvel.

He certainly believes in his lower work, especially under him has a reputation that he should not destroy because of small mistakes.

The eyes of Night Raven had gone to great lengths to gather his information accurately.

"They're all clean, nothing suspicious, but I still have to be careful"

Fermund read the information carefully, he did not find any strangeness, Hermund thought they all felt happy to have made something new innovation so that their names would be listed in history.

Fermund was no longer worried about this secret production, as he had put an eye on the organization that would scout out all the things that could potentially destroy Fermund's plans.

Fermund also sent some mercenaries to help the defense in the north, all the mercenaries that Fermund often hired slowly forge a bond of mutual trust,they always refused if there was another party who paid more just to turn around destroying the troops in the north.

Dusk had appeared, making the sky orange, Hermund entered the palace and relaxed drinking tea waiting for the results of his plan to succeed.
