The same was reaction was being felt by Eric who was controlling the port at Winter City .

Currently, Lucius, Clay and Azrael were training with Judd and his fleet . Lucius was particularly training with sword and guns currently .

Lucius thought as he trained with his guns, ’It seems my training was worth it in getting Commander Judd’s attention . ’

Watching Judd making a confused and serious face . Lucius understood that something serious was going to happen or had happened .

Azrail whispered to his mates and asked, "What do you think happened?"

Clay as usual laughed and spoke, "I think his girlfriend just found his secret stash and hence his gloomy face . "

Suddenly Swann laughed as he heard Clay and spoke, "Bullshit, That guy and a girlfriend? Impossible . He is just a weapons maniac . "

Everyone in the Aurora Unit started laughing as they heard the conversation between Clay and Swann .

Unlike the usual Jolly Atmosphere, Judd cleared his throat and gave an immediate order to everyone with a grave face, "All of the guys below 17 years of age are dismissed from today for the next month . You guys will be training directly under Jake . While the other older guys of the Aurora Unit will be participating in direct patrols with me from today onwards . "

Swann screamed, "WTF? Why am I included in this list as well? I want to join the patrols . I have already mastered Close combat . "

Lucius furrowed his brows and spoke, "It seems something fishy is going on . Looks like something is brewing in the Northern seas as they have given this order . I think this order is directly given by Admiral Blake . It mostly looks like they are either heading for a mission or they are preparing for war at seas . "

Azrail too nodded and agreed with Lucius and spoke, "Most likely war . I heard we are already at war on the lands after the Royal Family and others tried to invade us for dubious reasons . "

Looking at Lucius, Clay understood that he was planning to participate in these patrols no matter the cost .

He thought, ’I guess I will have to help him out . ’

Judd gave a cold stare to Swann who was defying but he didn’t speak a word later on as he understood that there was no way to convince Judd .

He thought, ’This guy is quite serious today . I guess he took my joke quite seriously’

Swann cursed, "Stinky Old men . Let’s see how he can stop me . "

Swann looked at the other kids Lucius and their group as he smiled, ’I might as well team up with them and join these patrols . Those brats are certainly planning something . Yes, I should approach that troublemaker Clay as it is easy to talk with him . ’

The Royal family had meanwhile sent General Endo for his expedition at North . He was a newly appointed general by King Lionheart . It seemed that General Endo was one of the brothers of her concubine, Cecilia .

For raking up quick achievements and making a name for himself, He saw this rebellion as an opportunity and he volunteered himself to raid the Winter City and occupy it, Little did he know about the fate of General Irwin and others when they tried to invade North-frontier town .

One of his assistants who was from the same family spoke cunningly, "Lord, it seems like this rebellion was a heaven-sent opportunity for us . "

General Endo smiled and spoke, "Well, all the credit for it goes to my Nephew, Hector . He was quite pissed with that man and hence used all of his resources to corner that upstart . It seems the plan was a success from the way that Count acted this time around and showed his fangs to the Kingdom . "

The Assistant, "What about their weapons? We need to be careful, right?"

Endo nodded but gave his conclusions, "True, we need to be careful of their ballistas but in the end, they still have to defend that city which can’t move anywhere . Additionally, this time we are moving with the Dwarves so that upstart really won’t be a problem . However, I suspect that Dwarves are only trying to intimidate him and will eventually side with him . So we must be more careful about those dwarves . "

"And what about the Fjord’s?"

General Endo snorted and spoke in a mocking manner, "What about them? They are actually being led by that rookie, Darius when it comes to naval warfare . If he acts against us, we might as well use this opportunity to pressurize the Fjords into giving us the ship blueprints which Minister Plato has been drooling for a long time . This problem with that Count was started by the Laguna family(Fjord) in the first place . "

The Assistant didn’t agree and spoke, "Not really, Milord . According to our family sources, this war was instigated by Prince Hector when he gave the assassination order for Evan so that he can use the Fjord’s against that Count . "

General Endo looked around and spoke, "Shh . . . Though you are my right-hand man and are from the family, you should control that mouth of yours . It will be very problematic if someone hears you . What matters currently is that Fjord’s forced a situation on everyone and hence the current results . Do you have any news on the Dwarves?"

The Assistant nodded and spoke, "Yes, General Nokhud has sent this letter to you . As far as internal information is concerned, That Rebel has sent a diplomat named Phillip to Bryndyll and the same has been done by King Ludwin . It seems something is cooking up . "

One of the sailors who was a spy from Duke Fjord’s heard from a magic rune and was immediately chilled .

’What! Prince Hector ordered the assassination of Lord Evan? This is big news . This needs to be reported immediately . ’

He immediately took out his magic pen and wrote a letter, filled it up in a bottle and threw it in the sea .

****

One-eyed Darius spoke with arrogance as he read the letter of General Nokhud, "This time, let’s see how those guys escape . Previously, they were quite arrogant because of their weapons . "

He thought, ’This is the war where I will avenge my brother . This Chaos started all because of that Upstart Merchant . ’

His assistant soon spoke, "General, what about the orders from Duke? He said that we need to be cautious as we have already lost enough ships . "

Darius saw that his assistant was acting quite suspiciously and spoke, "What are you worried about? You don’t want to become a soldier who was Killed In Action, right?"

The Assistant shivered and spoke, "No sir, We will attack that city at dawn . "

He thought, ’Hmph, I am not the only one who is keeping a watch on you . It seems I need to report this to Strategist Jonas after this mission . ’

Currently, there was furor at the Capital city of Bryndyll,

With a surprised face, The Wine king asked after drinking the Blood Moon, "Who made this wine? I would like to know the creator of this wine . "

The Mayor knew that there would be a problem so he asked cautiously, "Is there a problem, Wine King?"

The wine king shook his head and spoke, "No, After such a long time I was able to drink such a good wine . So this wine got me interested . "

A lot of aristocrats were surprised after hearing the comments of Wine King .

The Agricultural Minister who was just visiting the Banquet asked the Mayor, "Hey, who bought in those wines that even Wine King has taken the interest in it?"

The Mayor hesitated a bit and introduced Phillip, "It was actually the envoy of Lord John, Mr . Phillip . "

Not recognizing John or Phillip, The Minister asked the Mayor, "Hmmm . . . Someone from outside the Kingdom? Now, this is surprising . What is their history? Please explain in detail . "

After hearing in detail from Mayor, the Minister and Wine King both understood the reason for Phillip’s arrival .

The Agricultural minister, Kuggon smiled after having a taste of Blood Moon and got straight to the point and asked Phillip, "It seems you guys are in a diplomatic crisis currently, Offer me 500 Bottles of that Wine and I can help you arrange a meeting with the higher-ups, How about it?"

Phillip was waiting for this sort of opportunity as he smiled and thought, ’I never thought that I would be able to gain a meeting this early with the higher-ups . I must not miss this opportunity . ’

"Of Course, we will be gifting these wines to both Wine King and Lord Kuggon . I hope I can meet the defense minister and sort out & negotiate our problems so that our misunderstanding doesn’t widen up . Meanwhile, we would like to offer our best wines in trade with Bryndyll and trade in other items . "

The Wine King too smiled and immediately ordered the Mayor, "Mayor, you can go and announce the results of this competition to everyone present . "

The Wine King showed a big smile and asked Phillip later on, "Diplomat Phillip, I would like to know the name of the creator of this marvelous Wine . "

Phillip smiled as all the parties were interested in their wine and spoke, "It was actually our lord who made the creation of this wine possible . It was because of our Chief Engineer, Mr . Tornwall that he decided to engage in Winemaking . Recently, there have been various varieties of wines that have been released by our Lord’s Manor . "

The Wine King, Mayor and the Agricultural Minister, Kuggon were quite surprised when they heard that their Lord made this wine just for his chief Engineer .

Kuggon thought, ’It seems Tornwall is living quite a happy life . ’

The Wine King thought, ’It seems I have to travel to North-frontier Town . If these wines are made using the Magic Power, I wonder what will be their real value . They are already this good . My only wines that are capable of competing with these are those with Magic Power . I need to talk with King Ludwin and others . ’

Very soon the Banquet was concluded,

Mayor was showing a happy face as well as a grumpy face as well,

Happy because he was able to make a good impression on the Wine King and the Agricultural Minister . Grumpy because he was ordered to create problems for Diplomat Phillip from the Foreign Ambassador at Duke Fjord’s Domain .

The Mayor, ’Ohh well, I can’t keep everyone happy . Additionally, this wine is so good I would never have imagined to get it in my lifetime . I guess it is worth it, not to mention my contact with Wine King and Lord Kuggon today . ’
