63 The Army (2/2)

The hall went deadly silent when they heard their story. Only the cries and weeping of the wolf and the bunny broke the silence. Knight couldn't stand still when he saw the wolf crying as he leaped from his place and landed before the three of them.

”Don't cry, tears make your anger disappear don't let that happen”

Knight put his paw on the wolf's shoulder as the wolf slowly lifted his head

”We can't resurrect your village but we can avenge your people and make sure what happened to you would never happen to someone else”

”I know every one of you has a story like this, you've lost everything but if you are willing to follow me I promise you will get what you want, it might be revenge or peaceful life”

Seeing the anger in many of the slaves' eyes he guessed they would go for revenge, only an army that driven by ambition would be a deadly and an effective force.

Don knew this very well if he wanted just an army he could have bought slaves from all over the empire with just the wealth the dragon king left behind for him. What he wanted was an army that fights for them, fights for their future and fights for Don without feeling forced, with that he can have his revenge as well as expand his army and empire, one stone two birds.

”What do you want?”

”Revenge!!”

”Revenge!!!!!”

”Revenge!!!!”

The chorus of the slaves echoed through the halls when Don finished, of course he could see some women and men standing there without shouting for revenge and they can do other works in the Kingdom as far as Don concerned because he knew a kingdom needs other workers too, other than a strong military to thrive and be prosperous.

Watching the slaves shouting Arrora knew with the help of the device Don and Knight going to be an unstoppable force and with their help she could have her own revenge as well besides that rescuing the slaves, seeing their smile, killing those scumbags slave traders made Arrora wanted to do it more.

”Gael, Amaryll”

The two elves stepped forward when they heard Don and faced the slaves

”The ones joining the army follow me”

”Others follow me”

Just after Gael and Amaryll gave the instructions the slaves separated into two groups. One group which mostly had beastmen and human males followed Gael towards the training hall while most of the human females and the female beastmen followed Amaryll leaving behind the three beastmen and the blonde hair youth

”We want to fight but we barely survived our last fight”

The tiger said as the wolfman stood up and wiped his tears away while the bunny girl stood between them.

”You don't need to worry about that when I'm done you two will be an unstoppable force”

”I...I want to fight too”

Knight almost coughed up blood when he heard the cute bunny as she tried to look brave. Knight looked top to bottom at the bunny girl, no matter how he sees her he couldn't find a suitable position for her in the army.

”She's cute Knight, that can be used as a deadly weapon like any other”

The bunny blushed a little when she heard the Don and looked at Don coming towards them with the half-elf woman.

”Hmm I will turn you into an assassin yes that's it follow me”

Arrora could see the evil grin on Knight's face, the same evil grin he makes before starting a devilish training. Seeing Knight leaving the hall with the three of them Don turned his gaze towards the blonde hair youth.

”You are a spy, aren't you?”
