95 Demise (1/2)

They don't want to risk their lives by wandering here anymore.

The area that was mess an hour ago became silent and still again though having scares of today's battle on its ground and mountains.

Herbal doctor treated the wounds of General Wong; he was feeling better now, after she passed some orders she went back to Veteran Hall leaving four Veterans on guard for border and camps. It was impossible for Xing Mu Empire to have another Adroit Expert but still she needed some stand up.

There were many things to improve in Veteran Army.

...…

A Veteran Messenger of Xing Mu Army flew at its maximum caliber to reach the Emperor Palace to deliver the news of East Border demise.

Inside the Emperor Palace, slightly plump man above sixty years old age was sitting spine-tingling face, his attire was evident of his wealthy circumstances.

He spoke with confidence with his man, ”Get ready the troops of West and north borders as well, there not a single chance for Zhang Ming Empire to win East border, we will snatch their territory and expand our Area of Order.”

His words were exuding confidence in his way. Running a man entered in court and gasping bowed immediately,

”Demise… demise My Emperor,” he stopped to catch his breath.

Emperor stood up with shock but soon composed and sat again, ”What is the matter Veteran Messenger?” Veteran Messenger spoke in frenzy,

”We lost East Border, our strongest man met his fall in the battle, and our side suffered great numbers of casualties and …and…”

Emperor's face darkened with this news, he failed to maintain his skin color with anger. ”Are you saying that Adroit Expert lost battle against weakling Zhang Ming Empire East Border?” he was fuming with fury.
