196 How To Rule A Kingdom Part One (1/2)

A few kilometers from the border that connected to the Blackstone Empire a loud rumbling could be heard as a mass of thousands of golems and millions of soldiers marched towards Alastines capital, leaving behind destruction with every step. The empire soldiers were by no means noble as they broke into civilian houses, killed the men, looted, and r*ped the women before taking them as slaves. This was the horrors of war.

”Sir are we just going to let our men do as they please?” A unit commander walked up to a tall well built man on a dragonic horse and asked. The unit commander seemed to dislike the actions of the soldiers since it made it seem they had lost all humanity.

”Let them do as they please. That damn King Augustus wiped out a lot of their brothers. Let them take their aggression out on the people of Alastine. Let them understand what going against the Empire truly means.” The well built man on the dragonic horse showed no sympathy.

”But sir the women are...” The unit commander did not like how the females were benign treated.

”Let them be. They will calm down soon. For now, are the reports I have been getting true?” The well built man on the Dragonic horse asked.

”From what we know Sir, Fernalia was completely wiped out the entire kingdom is now a no man's land.” The unit commander replied.

”Hmph, that is just because they are weak but… The fact that Alastine has something that can destroy an entire kingdom does bother me some.” The well built man turned to the pointy eared man next to him. ”Amier, what do you think?”

”If it really was a magic attack it is probably one of the highest tiers of magic. I suggest we act more with caution. And General Woodrow I would suggest you keep your men from doing these horrendous acts. If not for my princess asking us to be here, I would have killed these men myself.” Amier looked at General Woodrow, his eyes narrowing.

General Woodrow turned his gaze and looked at his men looting, seeing that they were doing things that could get them the death penalty in the Empire his fury quickly skyrocketed. ”You damn idiots! I said you can do as you please but that does not mean to go overboard!”

Seeing one of his soldiers pressing down a teen girl, the general quickly rode over on his dragonic horse and cut the soldiers head off. ”If you don't want to end up like him then keep you lust in check!”

The girl on the ground held her ripped skirt and looked up at general Woodward. ”Thank you for saving me...”

”Save you? No, I was just teaching my men what they can not do. Your life means nothing to me.” General Woodward did not even look as he waved his sword once again chopping the girls head off.

This was not just a war, but a purge of all of Alastine. He was given orders by his emperor to kill every human he came across. He did not know what brought this war on nor did he care. He just followed orders and killed who he was asked to kill.
