Chapter 177 War in the north 7 (1/2)

Mars looked on in wonder as the focus returned to the prisoners eyes but kept silent as Henry and the prisoner began exchanging words, Henry asked various questions that all held strategic value and the prisoner either didn't respond or responded with mockery of Destra. Mars grandly got bored and activated his [Energy: sense] before he looked around at the mana lines that supplied mana from the main mana source out to the rest of the building, the setup seemed rather random like the mana lines were an afterthought, like it had been installed after the castle had been built, completely unlike his building in Green river where the mana lines were a part of the construction from the get go. Suddenly his gaze passed over the prisoner and stopped before he spoke

”oi”

both Henry and the prisoner were surprised that Mars suddenly spoke but before Henry had a change to say anything Mars continued

”I would not circulate your mana like that in my presence, it can be dangerous for you health”

Mars had recognized the way his mana was moving he was casting a fire arrow, only his mana moved very slowly, perhaps because of the mana sealing collar around his neck, as soon as Mars finished speaking the guards that stood behind Mars and Henry sprung into action but they were too slow as his spell were completed in the next instance and shot out towards Henry

”DIE!”

unfortunately for the prisoner Mars was present and simply moved his hand in the way of the fire arrow and grabbed it, erasing the spell before it had a chance to hit its mark. The guards grabbed the prisoner and pushed the button on his collar making him go limp before his eyes became unfocused again, Mars brushed the soot off his hand and looked over at Henry before he asked

”I guess that's that, right?”

”...yes the interrogation is over, we'll pass him over to the professional interrogates they will have him singing in no time”

Mars gave a nod and thought

'enhanced interrogation is it?'

”well in any case thank you for blocking that spell Mars”

”you are welcome Henry”

Mars stood up and walked out the door, leaving the interrogation room behind...

Half a week later Mars laid on a rocking carriage, the garrison force form Destra had arrived at Irker and so it was time for the main force to move on further north, after traveling for about 5 days the main force reached the town of Oveler and after about a week of sieging the main force broke through the gates and so after another day of fighting the battle ended in Destra's victory and thus Mars was bored again

'I'm starting to get bored of playing soldier...'

with such thoughts Mars once again sat in a rocking carriage on the way to the next town, the town of Glower, which also was the town closest to the mana stone mine and thus controlled the flow of mana stones and also Mars' target in this war, the 85% of the output of the mana stone mine which he had been promised by the king of Destra was almost within reach and a day later the main force arrived and laid siege to the walled town, much like the previous towns the magic batteries was the first to act, Mars lay awake under the moonlight and listened to the magic batteries in the distance and suddenly got annoyed and sat up before he muttered

”time to wage war like a living god...”

detriment to end the war as soon as possible Mars got on his feet and began walking towards the walls of Glower, passing into no man's land Mars walked bristly towards the walls and soon arrived at the foot of the wall and put his hand on it and activated [Energy: drain touch], after draining the energy for about 5 minutes his [Energy storage] had almost filled up completely and the formation runes on the walls ran out of energy and powered down

'....neat, well then next is the gates'

as Mars followed the walls to the nearest gate he activated his [blood lust] skill and his body was gradually covered in vermilion plate-like armor that looked like crystallized blood that covered his entire body except for his head, a long cape also materialized on his back before he suddenly stopped walking and lightly hit his head

”I forgot, no capes”

with a thought the cape dematerialized again and Mars continued walking and soon reached a gate and put his hand on it

”...and here we go”
