Chapter 96 (2/2)
But to place Luke in the Torlot Fortress, the ultimate place where the battle with Volga Republic happened!
“Why are you so surprised? Is it a dangerous place?” Luke asked.
“The most dangerous place!”
Although Philip had been wandering in the suburbs for several years, the rumors of Torlot were well known.
“After losing the border to the Volga in the war seven years back, the northern border had no quiet day.”
It was because of the interest of the Empire and the dreams of the Volga’s republic war were preventing each other not to cross and occupy their borders.
Most borders of the two countries had turned into conflict zones, the most common and the most-fierce battles were done in Torlot.
Built on the riverside from the Volga republic, the fortress-like a dagger constantly aimed for the Republic, and too numerous aims to bring the other down.
In the meantime, there have been several instances of the stations being destroyed and damaged.
“Dammit! That Emperor is surely determined. Then, your position?”
“Was it the fortress Commander?”
“That is something we can feel glad about. The only time it is good to go there is if you can be the one on the top.”
Even if Luke was young, the emperor couldn’t help but consider Luke’s title, and his ability to defeat four Gigants all by himself.
Which was why he had given the full control and power of the fortress to Luke.
“Then, should I go straight to Torlot?” Luke asked.
“No, that isn’t how it is done. You need to stop by the northern command office and report them about it to the enlistment.”
“Is that so? Then let’s go there.”
Luke nodded his head and moved the wagon to the direction of Krom, where the northern Command office was placed.
