BXBX NOVEL Chapter 210: The Beginning
All my kids were sitting cross-legged in various forms of exercise outfits, looking at me with reverence and attention. They loved when I taught them; this was a sacred time for me that no one interrupted. The fact that five Bunny-kin walked in with grim looks on their face made me pause.
"Sorry, Cuties," I said with a wry smile, "It seems that today will be cut short," I told all of them to see sad faces. "Your mommies will be here soon and I want you all to be good for them and make sure you practice every night. I will have to go now," I said, walking through my children\'s class.
My heart sank, and I heard a collective call out, "Thank you, Daddy!" From all my children. It hurt as I walked towards those bunny kin but I stepped out and their robes were all Wizards of B ranked standing.
"The Elder councils have gathered and confirmed that with haste we are to attack the Empire as soon as possible. There will be no delay, and all tribes have already gathered here and are moving towards the border." A stone-faced Blue bunny-kin told me as we left my classroom. "We already informed the mothers to come to collect their children, but now is the time to go, Supreme Commander.
The Elders insist. The War chief insists as well. The Empire is just starting to show signs of noticing our march towards the border."
Grim news, and my face as like stone-faced. I knew it was going to happen. I knew it, and in the last couple of days, I did my best to have things moving forward. Whatever was happening at Border City and releasing those slavers started a chain reaction, and my logistics army was absolutely destroyed by its schedule.
Recruitment increased and we started to send more people to each checkpoint to help build the warehouses and transportation lines we would need.
We didn\'t have the carriages and draft animals needed, though. In a Mana-filled world, this seemed stupid. I wanted something to help with this, but there needed to be more. Something with Void magic would be wonderful but it was simply a very rare thing that would not be used in the military.
Today I would leave all my kiddos behind and I felt my heart was heavy. I was summoned to the Elder council, and things would kick off. Queen Mira already promised to follow me into the Empire\'s depths and some of my women. But everyone else I would be leaving behind, and I would not see them for some time as I relied on my commanders back in the Tribe to run everything.
It was early in the military, and confusion on who should be talking was still a thing but that was always going to be the case. My firm will as I walked out of that room and finally arrived at the meeting that was kicking everything off.
Isabelle had already sent the main forces forward where we would meet them in the coming days and the military was moving forward with a limited stockpile of food and resources I had ready. My mind was telling me that this was a horrible time to attack, but the Empire\'s movement seemed to be just waking up to our movements now if that latest report was true.
The border was weak, and the fortresses on their border would be the same, and those would be critical to take with minimal resources. I didn\'t know if this was a good move, but at this point, I was on a wild horse already trying to buck me off. I had no choice but to hold on tight and hope everything went perfectly.
I followed the escort and found myself in a last meeting with Queen Mira, Isabelle, and ten Elders at A rank from various tribes. The Grand Alchemist was among the strongest, and the room\'s mana was heavy as I looked at Elders I had never met before. There was a Grey Dragonic—a Grey wolf-kin who looked powerful and radiated bloodthirst.
A Cat-kin Elder recently joined us, and three different versions of Dog-kin looked annoyed to be in a room together. What I did not expect was a Spider-looking woman who was leaning back, whom no one sat near, that I didn\'t even know was part of the Beast-kin nation. She had a spider bottom and a human-looking top, but it was unsettling to the eye.
There was a Bull-kin that I did not know had an A ranker and an unassuming woman that I didn\'t know what species she was but barely registered as an A ranker to my senses.
"We have gathered today to tell our War chief and the Supreme Commander something important," The Grey Dragonic said, "We, the highest Elder council of the Beast-kin Nation, will give you an order. We have unanimously agreed that the Beast-kin Nation is now at war with the Empire.
We will drive a knife into their hearts and show the world that we should not be looked down upon." The Elder Dragonic said, his voice fierce.
"THEY WILL FIND NO MERCY!" he shouted suddenly, and it was filled with mana, and I realized it was a mana message sent out echoing out to the people of the nation. "WE WILL KILL AND SHOW NO MERCY TO THE EMPIRE!" He demanded.
The Elders joined in with a new Mana message moving out to the nation announcing, "TO WAR!"
The Declaration was made, and no one could stop us. The Elders had spoken, and the Nation erupted into cheers of blood thirst looking to avenge their dead or enslaved relatives.
