102 Fire (1/2)

A few hours after that, Soujin is attacked by a person from behind him. Soujin easily blocked that attack and escape a few steps to the sides.

”Jun Min, I don't mean to sneak inside your tent.”

Jun Min is looking towards Soujin angrily. Since he cannot do anything when he appeared as Jun Hua, at least when he turns back to become Jun Min, he could fight Soujin. Originally, he wants to beat him up, but the problem is, he doesn't have enough strength to do that.

”I know, you're not allowed to come again,” Jun Min answered.

Soujin raised his eyebrows. ”I'm afraid even you cannot stop me from doing that.”

Jun Hua truly wants to tear up his calm face and kicked him on his butt. How can he say that? That's his privacy!

Soujin didn't bother explaining anything more as his gaze directed towards the faraway hill and a devilish smile formed on his lips. Jun Min can even feel chills going up on his spine. The Soujin he looks at now is different compared to the usual calm and composed man he knows.

”The shows are going to start now,” Soujin said leisurely.

Jun Min directed his gaze to the hill. There is nothing at first, but then he noticed that smoke starts to rise on that direction. After a while, the smokes started to spread through the forest and Jun Min realized what that is, its fire.

”You plan to ignite the whole forest?” Jun Min said astonished. He too had thought about this way ever since Soujin tells him about the painting. The easiest thing to do to destroy the landscape is by fire. With fire, the entire forest will disappear.

”Not over here and the wind is supporting us today.”

The winds are making the fire move towards the Kai Kingdom lands. Although the wind is not strong, it's enough to make the fire move towards that direction. Not only that, Jun Min started to notice another fire starting in the middle of the forest.

”Fighting fire with fire, you plan to extinguish the fire by igniting another one?”

”It will only work on field. What I want is to flatten the whole area. The Kai Kingdom would surely feel immense regret of pulling us inside,” Soujin said calmly.

Jun Min nodded. If only for pulling them inside means that they have to pay with thousands of trees, they might need to reconsider the plan once more. He stares at the forest before them which already starting to burn.

”Do you think this loss would make them turn?”

”Yes, they won't hesitate to return back. The trees on that area are good trees for building furniture. There is also a village a bit further which probably had been using the woods as their source of living. If the Kai Kingdom doesn't want to lose a lot of money, they need to think the way to stop the fire before it spreads out.”

Jun Min cannot confirm whether what Soujin said is correct or not because he simply cannot see that far. What he can conclude from this plan is that Soujin is a wicked general that know how to use his card in order to make people do as he wishes. In ordinary forest, it might not succeed, but Kai Kingdom natural environments are mostly forest. They relied on forest and naturally wouldn't want to lose them because the fire might spread out very fast.

He turned to the sky and knows that the clouds are gathering. There is possibly a rain later on that day and put out that fire. But if the Kai Kingdom relied only on the rain, the losses they might suffer are immense. They need to try to stop it first before the fire spread far.
