Chapter 174 Taking Back What Belongs to Us (1)
The trio fucked for hours. It was good that they cast a muffling spell around the house so that no sounds leaked.
Jane, who was once shy, was now bouncing on the dick like it was her natural habitat. Wisa smiled at that scene, proud of having taught Jane all her moves.
Arthur did not have to take the lead and show them positions. Both already had a good grasp of it after many nights of sex, although Arthur still took the lead from time to time to give them a rough fuck.
Their love for him increased each day, and after both acknowledged that having sex with Arthur improved their training, they wanted to have him every night, which Arthur also wanted.
When the following day came, everyone in Slyvian had worried faces as an army of elves and humans assembled in front of the city. They were preparing to leave and take back the Dragon Scale Empire from the dark races and, if everything went well, eradicate the dark lands after that.
A few people went with Arthur this time. Jane and Wisa wanted to go, and Arthur did not see a reason to refuse. Kai and Theo also wanted to go out and get more battle experience, so they went with Arthur.
There were a lot of guards and strong elves inside Slyvian in case the enemy tried a sneak attack. However, it was virtually impossible, considering the dark races were on the other side of the continent.
“Let’s go,” Arthur said.
All the people he would bring along followed him to the main gate of Slyvian, where the rest of the army was. Merethyl was also there, waiting for Arthur.
When the troops saw their mighty king wearing shiny plate armor, they shouted in unison.
Merethyl insisted that Arthur accept another gift, the special armor from the previous kings. Just like the weapon she gave him, the armor also had mysterious properties that no one knew 100 percent of.
It was a shiny greenish armor that looked like the shell of an ancient turtle. There was also a few golden adornments, but the armor was old, so it was almost impossible to see them.
Arthur was also wielding the weapon Merethyl gave him in the form of a giant two-handed sword attached to his back. All of which gave him an aura of a mighty ruler, and the morale of all the soldiers increased before the fight started.
The army was divided into the ordinary soldiers walking by foot, some who used mounts as these were the trained soldiers specifically for that position, and the generals, who also traveled using mounts.
A few essential characters traveled by carriage: Arthur, Merethyl, Wisa, Jane, Kai, and Theo. Eleonora also wanted to come with Arthur, but it was too dangerous, so they decided to keep her inside Slyvian.
A unique spell left inside the castle allowed Eleonora to send a message to Merethyl, so they would know if anything terrible happened inside Slyvian.
Arthur had also put an anchor there and could teleport back to help if the situation was too dire. After putting all these mechanisms, he and Merethyl could leave the city with a peaceful mind.
“Are you sure the number of troops you saw was only that?” Merethyl asked within the carriage.
When Arthur returned to the city, he explained everything to Merethyl, including the number of troops there, as that was their mission in the first place.
“I am sure, though I’m not familiar with the distance from the capital to the dark lands and the means of transportation from the dark races. Could backup arrive there quickly?”
“Hum, I don’t think that is possible. The dark lands are somewhat far. My best guess would be that only a few of them remain in the Dragon Scale Empire while the rest return to the border of the dark lands, preparing a definitive attack to wipe us all.” Merethyl said.
That was the same thing Arthur was thinking. Now that Merethyl and the new ruler of the elves were out, it was their best chance to strike and end their lives for good.
More than usual, it would take them some time to reach Drakonia, as they were traveling as an army and not a particular unit.
Speaking of a particular unit, Siora, Folen, and Laeroth called out from outside the carriage, and Arthur let them in. It had plenty of space, so he did not see any problem.
“Akhur, my lord. I can’t wait to finish these bastards.” Laeroth said.
The elf who was once timid was now all talkative. Arthur had asked about him to Siora, and she simply said Laeroth was only shy with strangers.
“So this is the case.”
They spoke about their plans during the first few hours of the journey, but after that, everyone was tired and wanted to stop and take a rest.
Arthur and the others inside the carriage weren’t that tired, but the soldiers who had to walk on foot were, and they had to think about them as well.
Merethyl made a sign for everyone to stop, and after thirty minutes, countless tents were placed around the road and inside the forest.
Some elves even used magic to move the trees without cutting them off. That would only last a day. After that, the trees would return to their original place.
Arthur could stay inside the carriage if he wanted to, but he opted to place a tent somewhat far from their original spot to have more privacy with his wives.
Another reason for him doing that was that he needed to take a bath, and luckily there was a river nearby, just beside where he placed his tent.
He took off his clothing, placed them inside the tent, and jumped inside the river, unafraid. Even if that river had some aggressive beast, it would only be courting death trying to attack Arthur.
Jane and Wisa watched his bath, and when all the soldiers far away were in a deep sleep, they also took out their clothing, seductively looking at Arthur.
