Chapter 523 - The Start Of The Civil War - Part 2

”Do you find him? Did you find my husband, Yoman?” A lady with an exhausted face pestered Yoman. The lady had an orchid-colored hair, wavy, and it reached to her back. The bright blue eyes dimmed with the exhaustion she felt. She was Lady Viona, Lord Robinʼs wife who managed to escape from Aram City. Her white dress was dirtied by the dirt as she escaped from the calamity.

Yoman did not dare to look at the Ladyʼs eyes. He averted his eyes away from her and looked on the ground. He had come back to the city to check if Lord Robin managed to escape from the Revolution Army. However, when he returned to the perimeter area of Aram City, people were talking about how the city had fallen into the Revolution Army. That was not the worst, the worst was that the people also talked about Viscount Robin.

Viscount Robinʼs head was hanged at the main gate of Aram City. There was no need for him to search for his lord as he was dead. However, he could not bear to tell her that her husband had died and his head was hanged at the main gate. Losing her husband was a big hit for her, and yet her husbandʼs head was hanged as well as a trophy.

Yet Yoman was aware that they would know sooner or later, it was just a matter of time. Might as well tell them sooner so they could overcome the loss sooner as well. He told Lady Viona what happened to Lord Robin, everything that happened to the city as well as the head event.

Lady Viona gasped out and her body went weak right after, but Dean, Lord Robinʼs first son with his first wife, caught Lady Viona before she could fall to the ground. Then she cried in her sonʼs embrace as Yoman let out a sigh. Yes, Lady Viona was Lord Robinʼs second wife. The first wife passed when she was giving birth to Dean. A few years later, Lord Robin took the second wife and that wife was Lady Viona.

Yoman glanced to the side. Fortunately, the seven years old Elle, the daughter of Lord Robin and Lady Viona was sleeping on the side. It was best for her to not hear that her fatherʼs head was hanged by the Revolution Army. So much he wanted to let the family mourn for his father and her husband, they did not have time for that.

”I am sorry to interrupt, Lady Viona. However, we have to get ready to leave in half an hour. We have to leave the village soon. I heard that more Revolution Army would come to the city. We want to leave the village soon so we will not encounter the Revolution Army,” Yoman said softly.

Dean, who inherited his fatherʼs brown eyes, looked toward Yoman, ”We will be ready to leave in half an hour, Sir Yoman,” Yoman nodded in response and left the house. The secret pathway that connected to the City Lord mansion connected to the village to the west of Aram City. As long as the Revolution Army did not find the secret pathway, they would not be found out by them.

Rosalie Citadel, the Lionax Palace

In the private room where the Kingsley Family held the family meeting. Three generations of the family gathered in the room, The Right Guardian, Robert Kingsley. The current King of the Lionax Kingdom, Emeric Kingsley. The Crown Prince of the Lionax Kingdom, Chandler Kingsley. The second Prince of the Lionax Kingdom or the Vice Marshall who guarded the southern border, Aaron Kingsley.

”Kaiden told the truth when he told us about the Revolution Army. They emerged last night and captured Aram City at the northern border… Does that mean they are the ones who killed Kaiden?” Chandler Kingsley was the first one to open his mouth.

”They must be the culprit and they killed him because he knew their secret…” Aaron Kingsley looked toward his big brother with no expression, ”Does this mean your fianceeʼs involvement is confirmed, Brother Chandler?”

”For sure the Revolution Army is the culprit who killed Kaiden, but why would they let Kaiden leave with Chandler? Why would they kill him instead of targeting the Crown Prince? Everything makes no sense to me,” The King muttered. If they knew that Kaiden was holding a secret about the Revolution Army, they should kill them silently instead of letting Kaiden back to Rosalie Citadel.

”I donʼt care if that makes sense or not and I donʼt care if Chandlerʼs fiancee is involved or not. Thatʼs not the point right! The Revolution Army had emerged, we must extinguish them from the kingdom,” Robertʼs deep voice rang in the room, ”We will know everything when we catch Julius Brent. Donʼt assume things and make our move now!”

Robert Kingsley looked toward Aaron Kingsley, ”Aaron, you should return to the southern border. You have to keep on watching Warmirʼs movement. General Allan will use this chance to attack the border. You have to be prepared for that. Those runts are quite smart to start their rebellion from the north.

Emeric, gather the reserve force we have. We will not be pulling the force on the southern border. We will use our secret army and show them the real power of the Lionax Kingdom. I will call your Uncle, we will be making our move and quickly deal with this Revolution Army before they do more damage to our kingdom!” After saying that, Robert Kingsley stood up and left the room.

The Military Camp of the Warmir at the southern border

General Allan received a letter from the spies he planted in the Lionax Kingdom. He read the scroll with his sharp eyes from the top to the bottom. A smile formed on his lips as he closed the scroll. General Allan closed his eyes and muttered, ”The time has finally come.”

Swoosh!

The scroll burned in his hand as he stood up from the chair, ”Cain! Tell Your Majesty, we will be attacking the Lionax Kingdom in two days. I need his full support and supplies for the war against the Lionax Kingdom. Tell Your Majesty, this is only our chance to seize their territory!”
