In the military camp.
Gubong crouched down, pointing his arm towards the entrance of the camp. – I announce the entrance of the king, the queen, and the princesses! – he exclaimed aloud.
Queen Andromeda, Alexia, and Hera, escorted by eight armed Amazons, approached with waves and smiles.
With his hands behind him, touching his long, voluminous brown hair, and dressed in a blue kimono with golden features, Arthur was escorted by Persival, Lancelot, and four other soldiers. Entering the camp, he looked at them all.
General Cassilda, Gubong, the soldiers, and the amazons crouched. – Sovereign! It's an honor to have you here... – they exclaimed.
Arthur, looking at all of them, with his hands behind his back. – General, come closer!
Captain Windsom Ashura, the eldest son of Elder Ashura, looked at Alexia with a smile. "This woman is irresistible..." he thought, blushing.
General Cassilda approached the king with her head bowed. – Lord...
Looking at her with a cold expression, Arthur ordered. – Walk with me... – and began walking.
The general looked at the soldiers. – Make yourself comfortable! – she commanded, walking beside the king.
Lancelot and Persival, along with six soldiers, followed Arthur and Cassilda.
Queen Andromeda, looking at the general, sighed. "I just came to be with her..." she whispered, putting her hands on her hips.
Looking at the king, Hera asked. – Is it my impression or is the king more intense...?
Captain Windsom approached, crouching. – Your Majesty! I'm sorry for interrupting... – he said, looking at Alexia. – Can I have the pleasure of having a walk with your highness?
Queen Andromeda and Hera, smiling, exchanged glances.
Alexia looked at the queen and then at Hera. – Yes, of course. What do you want to talk about?
Queen Andromeda, smiling, said. – Hera and I are going to see how the amazons are. You can talk freely... – and walked towards a group of armed women.
Queen Andromeda and Hera walked together with six amazons behind them.
With two armed amazons behind her, Alexia looked at Windsom. – What do you want to say? – she asked, putting her clear eyes on him.
Looking intensely at her, he blushed. – You're very beautiful... – he said, revealing his thoughts.
Alexia, with her hands behind her back, smiled. – It's good to know you think that... – she said, with a slight smile.
Looking at her, Windsom shook his head. – I'm sorry. It wasn't... I thought out loud... – nervously, he stumbled over his own words.
– Alright Windsom, I'm sure you didn't stop me to tell me I'm pretty... – Alexia said, looking at him.
"Let's... Come on, Windsom! Courage!" he thought, taking a deep breath. – It's been three years since I've been trying to ask you out, but something always happens... – he said, his racing heart anticipating a no.
Alexia, surprised, took a step back. – Ask me out?! – she questioned with a furrowed brow.
…
Minutes later, Arthur and Cassilda were walking around the camp.
Arthur, looking at the soldiers, asked. – How many soldiers do we have in total?
The general, next to Arthur, replied. – There are seven hundred and six thousand soldiers. The soldiers of Anain and Vanain have arrived in recent weeks, but it's not enough, sovereign. We need more... – she said, her voice and facial expression showing concern.
– Many kingdoms have been silent about what is happening. They are afraid of Zeus. There are very few kingdoms that are helping... – General Cassilda continued.
She spoke without confidence. The once confident and strong general succumbed to the idea of dying in the second world war. She, like many others, didn't trust Arthur, so she was afraid.
– What is their cultivation level? – Arthur asked, looking at her.
– First Dimension. Between Great Masters and Supreme Great Masters. – Cassilda sighed.
Arthur was silent for a moment. – ... – looking at the soldiers, searching for a solution, but finding none. – We can hold out for a while, but the numerical disadvantage is overwhelming... Tell all soldiers that if by the war they haven't evolved at least one level, they won't come back alive from the battlefield...
Lancelot Chamberlain, behind Arthur and Cassilda, looked at Persival. – I heard that the Union of Kings is going to bring two million and one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers to this battle, and the kings will be present in person...
Prince Persival, looking at Lancelot. – May the Light have mercy... A difference of one million four hundred and forty thousand soldiers. Lancelot, we can die! I don't want to die without getting married... – he said, his pupils constricting and his hands trembling.
Lancelot looked at Persival, smiling. – Death comes to all of us, and we know it. But at least we fight for the freedom of all, for the freedom of those who cannot fight. We fight against men who think they are gods. At least I will have a dignified death! I will die knowing that I was doing the will of the Light...
Persival sighed. – You are like wine, it is in the most difficult moments that you give the most peace. No wonder we all love you... – he said, looking at him.
With a nervous smile, Lancelot replied. – Thank you, I think... But it's not by complimenting me that you're going to make me forget. Stop drinking! – he exclaimed.
Windsom, looking at Alexia, lowered his head. – T-That's not what I meant, sorry. I was referring to going out for a walk...
With her hand on her chest, Alexia said. – Now it's better. Well, I think we can talk, one of these days after my training... – Alexia sighed.
Looking at her, with a cheerful countenance, Windsom asked. – Soon we will go to war, so it could be tomorrow...?
Alexia, looking at the tent of weapons, saw the king and sighed. – It could be Windsom, tomorrow afternoon. I usually stay in the garden after training. But what is the subject? What do you want to talk about? – she asked, watching Arthur.
– Man, do you see that...? – a soldier elbowed his friend as he looked at Hera.
He looked at his companion with a furrowed brow. – What?! – he asked, annoyed.
– Look! – he exclaimed, moving his chin towards the princess.
Looking at Hera, he blushed. – I don't know what it is, but it seems that every time I see her, she is more beautiful... – the soldier said.
A third soldier stared at her. – That body... If I were to go to her, do you think she would accept? I've heard stories about the Olympus family, and they're always in a very good mood, if you know what I mean... – he said, laughing wickedly.
Queen Andromeda and Hera talking to the Amazons, the queen hugged Hera.
– Ignore it, dear! Later, I'll talk to Cassilda about their punishment! – she said, looking at them out of the corner of her eyes.
The soldiers, noticing the queen's intent-to-kill, pretended they did not see and went back to their business.
Hera, sighed. – I'm used to it...
Luana, full of tears, running towards Hera. – CAPTAIN!!! – she shouted, hugging Hera.
Hera, hugging her, placed her hand on Luana's head. – Luana, are you okay?
Argos, running, embraced Hera. – CAPTAIN!!!
The two tightly embraced the divine princess, forgetting that the queen was there.
Laughing, Hera ran her hand over their heads. – Girls, calm down...
– Don't think that because you're tall you can caress my head. I'm older than you! – Luana exclaimed, looking at Hera while swelling her cheek.
An amazon escorting Hera looked at Luana. – Watch your tone! It's a princess you're talking to! – she exclaimed, staring at Luana.
