Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 192: Commander



Chapter 192: Commander

"May I know why you are here?"

Felishia asked lying on her bed while looking at him with her rested by her hand.

Nix just blankly stared at her for a while and began speaking.

"So, I am leaving to fight the war. Just here to convey that."

"Why are you rushing in?"

"I got called..." Nix said feeling wary to leave.

Regardless of the ominous feeling and wariness. He had stepped on the battlefield. This is one of his fated occurrences however he feels he cannot adrift from such blatantly prewritten fate. His intuition was warning him.

He had fear as well. The fear of losing and pushed into the abyss of battle. Fighting for hours amidst a swarm of soldiers. 

"Taking your folks with you?"

"A few of them," Nix said leaning against the door. 

"Well, are you not breaking the promise and deal you've made with me?"

Felishia asked looking at Nix with a disheartened expression on her face.

He rolled his sleeves and showed the tattoo of snakes. 

"This here is the proof. That you can tail where ever I go... Meet me after you've fully prepared to bring your folks when needed and the war is winnable."

"Easy to say... If it isn't for the intervention that is to soon appear. We will lose for sure."

Felishia shrugged.

"Whose intervention?" Nix asked.

"Intervention of the General, Grendon of Nadukandam. The second strongest man of Empyrean. An existence the gods are wary of."

"Who is the First?"

"Raavan, The Emperor of Nadukandam."

"Alright, why would the so-called Grendon intervene in this war. And why was they idle all this time then?" Nix asked looking at her emerald green eyes.

"Because they forfeited the treaty, Treaty of Vehement peace."

"Ahh yes, the vehement peace huh? I studied history. They signed the treaty with Raavan about Thirty years ago. When chaos mainland was at war. About 1990 if I were to calculate from my world's years."

"Indeed, Raavan is a human who loves harmony, art, peace. He's a great man. He detests those who trample on the weak or those who do ominous deeds. There are many things to praise about him. Not that I have time to do so."

"So, you are saying his general would intervene in the war. Then why should we participate?"

"It will consume days to several months to cross the ocean and the barrier of Materiality."

"Barrier of materiality? The same thing that covers my world?"

"Indeed but this one is as several times weaker but takes several armies to pierce through. This is why paths occur. One has to wait for months and days to wander near the materiality until it paves the path. I believe you've grasped why men of the strong people do not enter this land?"

"All the sides of the continents have been covered by materiality. This is also needed to balance since this land possesses weak people?"

"Precisely! The catalyst of Fate and destiny, The epitome of balance, Primeval cosmo was the reason to this as well."

"Well, time for me to conduct a meeting. See you."

He said and left the entrance of the room.

{You are dealing with this in a good way. I am looking forward to your commanding.}

Astaroth said flying next to him.

"It's rare to gain praise from you but, I didn't do anything praiseworthy though."

{You are preparing instead of going on impulse, like a child.}

"Whatever Mr.Ghost."

He shrugged.

He soon went to the training grounds Where Rebecca was swinging her sword. She was in her regular gym clothes.

"Hey, Rebecca... Don't you miss your home?"

"Huh? Well... Yes."

She nodded her head stopping her training.

"How about we go there?"

Nix asked with a smile.

"Sure, it's a war date then?"

She said with a mocking smile.

"What the fuck is a war date?"

"uhh...Whatever I am happy to go back. With you being allied with Heredia. I am assured that you wouldn't cause trouble."

"Aren't you too loyal to your little bitch king who banished a wimpy kid like me?"

"Ohhh Come on now that's in the past?"

Rebecca said with a wry smile.

"Alright come to the meeting hall. I have something to announce."

He said and left again.

This time to his room where he threw a spear, a sword, bow, and arrows. He threw every possible weapon in his clan house and five neon explosives as well. Each the in the size of a Rubik's cube.

The doping high amount of neon explosive he used once was something he was very wary of. The moment he introduces such a weapon the chaos mainland will be no more. Since the kings and others will resort to discover.

In the first place, it was one of the rare ones. As aforementioned, if one needs the ingredients to such a high amount they'd need to enter Blazering. As a matter of fact, out of all the places in Empyrean, the only places where the Firemoths were born were actually in Chaos mainland.

And the formula cannot be duplicated until Vikil or Daisy gives it away. This was indeed a very overpowered weapon thus it was not available. Regardless of all these Nix took two huge explosives just in case a threatening power was to turn the war over. 

{Resorting to suicide again?}

"I don't wish to resort to this in the slightest. But considering other powerful entities... I cannot sit idle and die in vain. If I go down I will take most of them with me."

He said as he shoved the cubes into his inventory.

{Well, the same trick does not work twice. Do you take demigods for granted? They were not in their guard unlike now. You will see once you lay your eyes on them. You are not a normal lad anymore. Remember!}

"True"

Nix said scratching his stubbled bearded face and walked into the conference room where everyone was assembled.

Standing on the stage was when he noticed that the members were low in number, unlike the last time he had met. Possibly, the war was the reason. The contracts will be deactivated in times like wars since they bound the decision to the higher officials. Usually, those who forfeit their contracts will suffer by curses.

Though it wouldn't necessarily kill them. They'd be disabled or suffer disability or lose senses. The degree of punishment changes according to the period of time the forfeited. The days of war will be exempted and the contract will revoke again.

This was why people chose to join the war. But there was also their own decision considered. They were given a few days to choose what to do next and clans or companies are compelled to participate as well such that, they can either participate along with their clans or participate as an individual.

The ones who gained massive levels seem to have chosen the private path since Nix was a maniac who took them on a suicidal ride last time.

His clan house was surely a bit empty and the town was empty as well. Thus he did not take too much time in explaining a few things. He handed over his clan responsibilities to Felishia and left the stage.

The ones he had selected were Camila since she was the one who can make Nix have direct contact with Heredia. Next, it was obviously Rebecca. If he wants to enter the Ranrak he needed someone who already had worked with the Royal Dynasty. Next is was Cinzia she possesses a spear that has some godly features in it although she couldn't use it when he uses Nova manifestation he was sure that he could handle and use its full potential. 

Tarok continuously nagged Nix and Tarok's growth was very stagnant. Orcs were essentially conquerers. So, wars can be a good choice in inducing his growth.  There was Reegan and Gunther who willingly volunteered. Lastly Hyun Dae Seok, the quietest and most hideous man among all. 

It seems he had some unsettled past with Cinzia. He also often heard that he loved Cinzia. Apart from that Camila fell in love with Nix as well. He didn't find envy in him. Dae Seok's singularity was unpredictable. But, his particularity portrayed him as a good person.

So, for now, he had left him alone. He couldn't decode his personality as well. He was a man of few words. So, in the end, he also volunteered. Dae Seok had recently attained assassin as his class and jumped to level 7 straight ahead. So he just accepted him.

The very evening everyone had their bags loaded and ready to leave. That was when Yeril interfered.

"Lord Nix I want to go with you."

Yeril said looking at him with her pleading eyes.

She was an ex-official of Ranrak as well. So, he took her. He had only a small group in mind but that just grew larger than he expected.
