8) Eence of a Tyrant

Weed’s ar streaks

They sh any resistance in the small principalities The cities that didn’t surrender were looted or decimated by arson The slave soldiers reached 200,000 people and the nuh to fill the plains

Funds looted from war torn castles or cities were used to improve the equipes that surrendered would rush to produce war equipht was placed on the title of Great Emperor Weed

“The weather is very nice Show old”

“Yes, Great Emperor”

“In order to maintain the army, conscript one in every three houses If they don’t come voluntarily then cut their necks…no, sweep them all away”

“I will do as you command”

<tbody>

There is a decline in the city’s security and loyalty

Econo setback and long terical development will be reduced People have reluctantly joined the ainst the invaders The residents perceive that you are more interested in war than a stable rule

Conscripted soldiers who have their family killed will have a deep antipathy

It is i policy wasn’t far-sighted

If he had enough time then he would invest in the city’s develope eht the Embinyu Church Further their levels through hunting

If Weed failed this quest then he would lose everything And people who he could trust in this world was really rare If he took too long for this quest then his Arpen Kingdo this out I’ve already entered the boiling water”

It was a truly irreversible situation Even though he took control of the territories, he couldn’t worry about investing in development or internal affairs

This was the only method in a time of war!

Weed just increased the forced conscription and looting Flags representing the Red Knife Ares that fell

Once the troops reached 250,000 people, the elderly and young children under the age of 14 were allowed to go horanted you mercy Return home and live happily with your fa at ho

He is sick froive up his riches as long as he can live

The soldiers have surrendered not long after

“This is a place that contains the Ees who can hold a sword shall be taken into captivity And light it on fire”

Weed had a lot of fun leading the ar times

A conqueror His unrefined wild ambitions could be released

Soon his army reached a place alls endlessly lined up to the left and right There were parts that crue hindrance

“This is the border of the Keltun Kingdo period The border had a large fortress to prevent invaders Troops that tried to invade the borders of the Keltun Kingdouarantee that they wouldn’t be wiped out

“Pass”

The border defense of the Keltun Kingdo that the knights at the border couldn’t face His devastating skills caused even the knights to tremble with fear Weed’s desert warriors were also skilled in coh the enemy territory on their ca with common soldiers were radical and destructive The nuressively invaded He would seize prisoners with each landslide victory

He also struck against the screa of warriors and surrendered soldiers had significant fighting power Yet this constantly shrank to as low as 140,000 soldiers due to killing the E the prisoners

“The ruler of the vast sandy desert and caller of water, His Majesty Weed who is destroying this land, hooray!”

“Kilkilkil For the glory of His Majesty!”

Some of the fanatics decided to follow Weed instead Their aptitude was perfect for his current actions

“Ignore the defense and break through Fight until all the troops are dead

Cut the throats of anyone who tries to run aithout fighting” The enemies that encountered the elephant unit was panicked and terrified The ene!

Araded

613 skilled infantry soldiers have been upgraded

4 knights have been promoted to junior commanders

</tbody>

The E in the battle have woken up like cold water has been poured on them They have realized that life is ion! Of course, there were the fanatics who still worshi+pped Weed and threw themselves at the enemy soldiers

“I believe in and will follow the Great Eive my life”

The loyalty of the soldiers towards Weed kept increasing

Your a charisma and combat ability has controlled the army!

“It is like I desired”

Weed had become the undisputed lord in this time of war Apart from the desert areas, he had seized nudo power and he didn’t pay attention to things like people, goods and internal affairs It soon created a spectacle where carriages stretched out for thousands of kilodom contains believers of the Embinyu Church so they are our eneh here to reach the Mapon Kingdom”

They had 3 consecutive victories in the Keltun Kingdohts and nobles as they headed towards the centre

By the ti of 50,000 soldiers and 70,000 elite knights appeared

“Valles Knight The heads of the barbarians are rotten Don’t show theht of the Kallae the representative of Weed’s arrateful if you voluntarily let ed and came forward

He easily settled the battle without icians in this warring period was very high but Weed was like the sky to thereat swordsmanshi+p… I’e is still young It would be a waste if a precious talent like you died in a place like this Would you like to follow hts

“I have pledged dom How can my honour be satisfied if I follow the leader of the barbarians?”

“If you follow old and jewels as you want”

“Right now the momentum is in your favour But once you are defeated, your troops will be scattered and you will have a miserable death in the wilderness

Your skeleton will start rotting to reflect your true appearance”

“Your words are severe”

“There is still ly…”

Slice!

“Keeook!”

But not all the knights were so foolishly honest

“If you followof the sword And I will conquer the continent”

“A knight always has dreams to advance in the wider world If you spare iance to you”

The knights who faced Weed sometimes became his subordinates Other nobles surrendered and their subordinates beca Weed-nierly waited for this day to coiance of generations of my faave the i fellows

“Good If you sincerely follow e number of slaves and land”

“Thank you, Your Majesty”

“But have you come empty handed?”

He didn’t trust the forces of the nobles so he placed theuard In the occupied territories, he placed soe the slave soldiers Sodoms would try to recapture the conquered territories so he needed to leave a minimal force behind They were commanded to burn the city if the enemy invaded!

The desert warriors took the lead in real battles but the slave soldiers also played an active role They continued conscription every time a battle on so the army continued to be filled up

The desert warriors were hard to replace if they died but it was easy to supplement the ordinary soldiers The ruthless conscription kept the quality and quantity of the troops constant

“The Keltun Kingdom is known for its chivalry so the Embinyu Church hasn’t spread too dom that is incorporated into the Haven E future

By the end of this warring period, the Keltun Kingdom would become the Kallamore Empire It was once a proud edom until it was eaten by the Haven E up in devastated cities of the Keltun Kingdom Rebels would appear in the current Kallamore area of the Haven Empire and public security would worsen

“The Mapon Kingdorated into the Haven Ehts were busy rolling around his head His brain tried toshould be free and strong I don’t need to worry about eyes gazing frododom will be coainst the two kingdoms! There was no need to invade every city but they set fire and took prisoners of war along the way The type of behaviour froreatly reduce the population of the Haven Eently I need to co”

If he destroyed everything then the existence of the Haven Kingdom itself would completely disappear from history

Weed took the desert warriors and swept through Central Continent, changing only a short history of the Versailles Continent The Mapon Kingdom would just rebuild and recover Important moments in the entire history couldn’t be reversed Nevertheless, medium cities and ain hly addictive

“Some cities have been surrounded by desert sand and disappeared without a trace, Emperor!”

“Huhuhu, I’ve cut the necks of e a bloody feast!”

As the looting and killings continued, the regular soldiers gradually became similar to the desert warriors

Weed’s sculptural lifeforms directly led 700 subordinates However, the desert warriors he accepted later didn’t have that degree of th

They became drunk on the brutal destruction and victories They were constantly disciplined but they would plunge into insanity if Weed left them unchecked

“If they don’t maintain the tension in battle then it would be hard to win the battles”

Weed’s 20,000 desert warriors and the soldiers fought continuously with no breaks They would beco that Weed wanted right noas indiscridom You can smash all of it”

??????????????????????????

“There are troublesome variables in the military If we stay silent…”

The leaders of the Her

“The Pisaro area in the south is experiencing a collapse in transportation, trade and taxes collected”

“The population around the Herr River is shrinking and it is rapidly beco a farmland There will be some yields but it is half of the expected harvest Maybe less”

Thethe cities on his adventure couldn’t be taken lightly Soe cities had vanished or been cut in half

Weed burned the occupied cities but they would recover after a long history Despite that, the deterioration still caused enornificant econoitation

The lords had control of the cities they conquered in the war They invested a lot in urban develope The leaders of the Hermes Guild profited from the vineyards and silver handed over by the lords so they couldn’t do nothing in this situation

It became troublesome as Weed moved closer towards the capital of the Haven Eed yet There is the training centre for the heavy cavalry there”

“Who doesn’t know that? The proble!”

Weed’s quest had forced the Her to infor station officials, he was currently adventuring in the past so they couldn’t stop him

“What about theto defeat them They will not recover”

The main army of the Haven Empire cornered the Allied Forces and didn’t allow the Bardray, performed well above expectations

Now they headed towards the elf forests and barbarian areas in order to unify the continent But their perforly bad

The elves were like ghosts in the forests but the infantry used their broad shi+elds to block the arrows and advance The elves knew the entire forest so they for after, a large nued to win

Humans needed to obtain food and security to expand their population In the case of the orcs, they had no criteria to expand their family

A few injured orcs would enter the mountains and an orc castle would appear there 1 raded to warriors or orc fighters The orcs lived in a harsh environment so they beco wiped out

However, the elves had a slow birth rate They were proficient in rowth of plants and water purification rather than coic so many users selected the elf race Many people enjoyed the advantages of the race

The elves and users didn’t cooperate to fight for the forest Building kingdoms were human like activities so they hadn’t been interested in the Hermes Guild’s attempt to conquer the continent

Some users who left the forest early had been lured by the prestigious guilds Paradoxically, the Hermes Guild was the one with the es but thethe Central Continent and getting rid of the Embinyu Church, Bardray will lead troops directly north”

There was no ainst the Allied Forces The cavalry dispatched overwhelmed the aining a vast amount of territory and residents on a daily basis They would demolish the Embinyu Church after the completion of their empire

“There is no tolerance This was their plan fro and then they would destroy the north so badly that people couldn’t live there again The necrohout the entire region”

The Herht it was irown properly to resist the full economic and military power of the Central Continent
