Chapter 303 We are just pawns here e for. Nux looked at the soldier and nodded, "We will be there soon." "Yes sir!" The soldier saluted again and left. Nux then turned to Thyra and smiled, "It is finally starting." "Well, it is just a meeting right now, it hasn't started yet," Thyra replied. "Hmm hmm, it would be my first time attending a meeting like this," Nux muttered. "This would be the first for me as well." Thyra nodded her head. The two then held each other's hand and walked towards the General's Camp. As they entered, their eyes fell on 4 people living sitting inside the tent around the big round table, They were Ember and her 3 Deputy Generals. As Ember's eyes fell on Thyra and Nux, she smiled, "Well then, as you all already know, they are the help sent by my close friend, Assistant General Nux and Assistant General Thyra." "Yeah, we already know about them, General, the two who have come here to 'assist' us, however, are unwilling to show their faces to us. We know them well, Nux and Thyra, there are chances that their names are fake as well." A Deputy General snorted. He wasn't alone, most of the Deputy Generals didn't have positive attitudes towards Thyra and Nux, of course, the two of them didn't care. For Nux, as long as the General smiled at him and treated him well, he was fine, as for Thyra, well, as long as Nux is fine, she was fine as well. Therefore, the two of them ignored their remarks and walked into the camp. "So? What are we called for?" Thyra questioned in her usual cold tone. Ember, who saw that Thyra was still fiery as ever smiled and then, she winked at Nux. Thyra saw that and she narrowed her eyes, Then, she tightened her grip around Nux's arm. "You didn't call us here just so you could try to eye on another woman's hand, right?" Thyra questioned. Ember smiled in satisfaction and then, her eyes turned serious, "Have a seat, we are discussing something important." Thyra and Nux looked at each other and then, they sat down on the chairs. Then, the General placed a map on the table and started, "This all started 100 years ago when the Solid Earth Kingdom entered the Forbidden Area inside the Bloodhill Wilderness. Since they lost a considerable amount of strength, the other three powers took this opportunity and attacked. Of course, it wasn't a major attack and the Solid Earth Kingdom didn't lose much in this, however, the boundary line between the four Kingdoms shifted a little. Just like other powers, the Woods Dynasty didn't lose this opportunity and attacked, in that war, we won the Highcrane Fort, a good defence location that belonged to the Solid Earth Kingdom. However, 2 years ago, the Solid Earth Kingdom, which didn't do much even though their land was taken away from them finally moved. With an overwhelmingly strong force, they overpowered our men staying in the Highcrane Fort and took back the land that belonged to them. If they had only taken what belonged to them, things wouldn't have been that complicated, however, they didn't stop there.𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶 With their immense momentum, they continued at captured our Deathspike Fort as well." The General then narrowed her eyes, "They were ruthless with their moves and didn't spare any soldiers, more than 10,000 soldiers died. We, the Woods Dynasty cannot let this slide. Therefore, I was ordered to reclaim our Deathspike Fort. Our strategy is simple, We will use our Piercing Flame Squad to destroy their walls, our Absolute Earth Squad to defend our Piercing Flame Squad, Then after we destroy their walls, we will move with full force and reclaim our Fort." The General smiled. However, hearing this, Nux frowned. "Isn't this too… simple…?" He questioned. This strategy… Even a child could come up with something like this. Thyra agreed with Nux's thoughts. This sounded too simple for a War plan. Were they hiding something from them? Were they still doubtful of them and were not revealing their full plan in front of them? Thyra believed that something like this was possible. However, Ember shook her head, "You are right, this is a Simple Strategy and the reason behind this is that the outcome of this war is already decided. The Woods Dynasty would win. And I am saying this, not because I am arrogant but because I have a reason to back up my words. Since the Solid Earth Kingdom attacked us and took back their Fort, it is clear that they are planning to take back their other Forts as well. And to do that, they would need soldiers. There is no way they would use all their soldiers here. It would have been different if we were attacking their Highcrane Fort, however, since we will only take back what was ours, They won't retaliate much." Ember smiled. Hearing her words, Nux frowned even more. "If it was that simple, then why were you, a King Stage Cultivator sent here?" Ember smiled, "As I said, we are not going there to just win, we are winning overwhelmingly. You can say that we are going to make a statement to the world. The Woods Dynasty is strong, absurdly strong, do not mess with us." This time, Thyra frowned, "If you want to show that, then why not take the Highcrane Fort as well? Only then will you be able to make that statement." Hearing that, the General smiled wryly, "Well, Woods Dynasty is strong, however, the Solid Earth Kingdom is strong as well." Nux's brows furrowed in confusion, however, Thyra finally understood what was happening. "So this is all just a farce." She muttered. "A farce…?" Nux finally realized it as well. Ember smiled, "Yes, you two are correct, this is not a war, it is just a farce, a farce that was arranged by the Solid Earth Kingdom to take back the territories they had lost. I assume that the two Kingdoms had planned it before, We are just pawns here, Pawns playing the game they have orchestrated."
