Continuing.
Arthur had prepared with his several thousand troops. At first he only had an army of a thousand troops, but when he came out of the palace, in fact the people of Aqua, the majority of whom were men, were already standing in front of the palace. They also want to participate in the great war.
Arthur deliberately did not announce the war to his people. He did not want many casualties from his side. Therefore, Arthur ordered all the people of Aqua, especially the children, to immediately save themselves, to find a place to take shelter.
However, who would have guessed, that some of them would instead stand in front of the palace and declare that, they were ready for war.
They also wanted to advance to the battlefield, and fight alongside Arthur, at the forefront. At that time, Arthur could no longer hold back his tears.
He knew that from the start his thoughts on his people were wrong. In fact, all the people of Aqua took to the field and stated that they wanted to join the war, if time could be repeated, Arthur wanted to return when he had to argue with Agatha, which made his wife have to leave the kingdom of Aqua and Planet Airraksa, for good.
He wanted those times to be repeated and thought not to kill the child in Agatha's womb. If that happened, at least Agatha was still in the palace at this time.
"You're right my dear, what you say is true. All of Aqua's people are brave people. I have misjudged them."
Arthur closed his eyes for a moment. The memory of Agatha flashed through his mind again. "I wish you were here to see all this, but that's very unlikely. But I'm sure you can hear the voices of your people, my dear."
The very deep longing, as well as the unforgivable regret, made Arthur have to accept everything.
He wanted to curse himself, had he not acted rashly at that time, then Agatha would still be in the palace right now, fighting alongside him.
"I'll look for you, honey. No matter how far you go, I'll still find you, honey. Wait for me. After this war is over, then I, Arthur, will look for you and bring you back to Aqua palace, as well as our child. I will look forward to the day that, honey."
Arthur opened his eyes, after meditating for a long time while recovering his inner strength. At that moment, a blue light flashed from Arthur's eyes.
The light that is very feared in the kingdom of Aqua, because when Arthur emits light from his eyes, it indicates that he is angry.
Steven who was by Arthur's side, as well as several of the Generals there, felt an aura that was completely different from Arthur's.
Never had they seen Arthur so angry and serious, "Let's hope this is a good start for the kingdom of Aqua. I just hope that this war ends soon and the world returns to peace as before."
Of course Steven said it all in his heart. Apart from Steven, Zeus, who was in fact appointed as a warlord, accompanied Steven in the front row, joining in on the same hope.
"Mother, Father. I will not disappoint you. This will be my first and last war. I will fight to the last drop of blood and bring peace to, this nation. Pray for me, Mother, Father."
Zeus put a cover on his face. He who was very young in age among the others, was ready with all the strength he had.
The sword sheathed on her waist would become a weapon, which she wanted to use to slay all her enemies.
Zeus was determined, before this war is over and the Aqua nation wins, then he will not go home. There was a serious look in his eyes.
Arthur, who was standing not far from Zeus, also felt the young man's spirit. His hopes were so high for Zeus, as if the young man would bring peace to the Aqua nation and Planet Airraksa.
When Arthur and the others were ready at the castle's ramparts, the King Orion who had indeed started to move was already standing a few meters from the main gate of the Aqua kingdom.
"Hey, you Orion! Give it up, there's no way you and your troops enter the palace. We of the Aqua Nation will fight to protect our homeland, as well as the family we love!" cried Arthur from the top of the castle.
While Orion, who was sitting on his horse, smiled faintly in response to Arthur's words. "Tch. You're too arrogant Arthur! Haven't you seen the army I brought to destroy your castle? Take a good look and compare it to the army you have? Hahaha, definitely nothing more than a bunch of losers with big bullshit."
Orion sneered at Arthur, and said that Arthur's army wasn't strong, containing only a bunch of losers, of course lacking in abilities.
Unlike the troops he brought, totaling sixty thousand troops. Orion thought, this army of his was more than enough to flatten Aqua's palace into a pile of dirt.
"Shut your mouth savage king! Aqua's people are not as weak as you think. We are willing to fight to defend our homeland and bring peace to this world. We will not be afraid to fight a savage king like you, Orion!"
Now it was Zeus' turn to shout loudly. The young man didn't care if the one he insulted was the King of the Shiners, namely Orion.
Sixty thousand troops, did not make Zeus afraid at all, on the contrary he felt challenged and the spirit that was in his chest was getting hotter. Made every drop of his blood boil.
Orion, who received such words, immediately saw who dared to challenge him.
He saw a young man who was complete with iron armor on his body, as well as a sword sheathed at his waist, making Orion feel admiration for the young man.
"You have great guts, young man. It turns out that you have a valiant knight too, Arthur. I didn't expect it, his words really deserve thumbs up. Good young man."
Thus Orion praised him. However, that did not make Zeus lower his guard. In no way should he be carried away by compliments, let alone coming out of the mouth, someone who doesn't have a heart like Orion.
Arthur was seen puffing his chest there. A slight smile appeared on his thick lips. However, that did not make him puffed up and thought that the war was over.
"You saw it for yourself, didn't you, Orion. The knight on my side, is actually more brave than you who are a loser. Look, just to attack a small kingdom, you muster so many troops. What is a loser? Hahaha," he sneered. Arthur in a stern tone.
"You can see, the troops you brought? Doesn't that prove that you are afraid, if you can't defeat my people with your strength? Hahaha, what a loser King," he continued, quipping Orion even more.
Immediately Orion's anger rose. How not to feel his blood boil when he heard the ridicule?
You can see Orion clenching his fists. An orange glow flashed in his eyes.
Zeus, who was watching from the top of the castle fortress, smiled faintly. The changes seen in Orion, did not scare Zeus at all. On the other hand, there was a feeling of pity for the King of the Shiners nation.
