Oz left the tribe that is slowly evolving to a kingdom only for a few days, so there are still no significant changes had been made.

Excepted for the fact that the tribe is being surrounded by approximately 500 elves that are fully armed.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“What brings you the noble elves to our respected kingdom?” Aegir asked the elves with a loud voice from the top of the wall.

The gate is still tightly closed.

The direwolves, goblins, and the Orcs are ready in case a fight will break out. No fear could be seen in everyone’s eyes since they’ve experienced multiple wars before this.

“Kingdom? Just because you possessed a huge wall doesn’t mean your small tribe could be called a kingdom!” One of the elf soldiers shouted.

Hearing that respond, Aegir gave a signal to Ibra with his hand.

“Defense Corps! Formation turtle!” Ibra shouted.

*Sound of lots of footsteps*

Hearing Ibra’s instructions, all of Ibra’s defense corps immediately get into action.

Hundreds of goblin archers immediately get into shooting position aiming at the elves. The turtle formation is one of the defense positions constructed by Oz. A defense formation that strengthens the defense by focusing all of the defense troop in one point.

All of the archers will aim from the top of the walls and the 300 spearman corps consist of both goblins and orcs that experts in spearmanship will make a square formation behind the wall gate, ready for battle.

Seeing how coordinated the goblins are, makes all of the elves shocked to their senses.

‘Bunch of goblins could make such a coordinated formation like this?’ Thought all of the elves present.

“What the difference by having such formation? Hiding inside a huge wall indicates that you’re just a weak and cowardly goblin!” Shouted the same elf that mocked the kingdom before.

Hearing the response, this time, Aegir gave a sign to both Fedra and Magra.

“Green corps!” “Red corps!” Shouted both of Fedra and Magra.

Green corps under Fedra is the corps consists of goblins and the red corps under Magra consist of Orcs.

“Formation Bear!” Shouted both of them.

hearing the instruction, both the green corps and the red corps forms another formation behind the spearman defense corps.

It hasn’t ended yet.

Aegir raised one of his hands to the sky and makes a symbol of shooting. Immediately after giving the signal.

Gurolf and his magician corps, riding together with Brad and his hunter corps appeared from behind the elves surrounded them.

“Now tell me. Will you tell us what’s the reason for you long-ears coming here, or will you fight with us, I wonder which choice will you choose?” Aegir said coldly.

“We mean you no harm dear goblin king!” A sweet voice sounded, a girly voice that is pleasant to hear.

All the elf warriors made their way after the sound was heard. A beautiful girl with a gorgeous green knotted hair and beautiful green eyes slowly walked towards the wall.

“I’m the princess of the elf village near your kingdom, I wonder if I could ask you the goblin king for a-“

“I’m not the king, the king is on an adventure. You may wait until the king is back to the kingdom.” Cut Aegir with a cold voice.

“Y-you, how dare you lowly goblins, you should just bow and serve us!” Shouted one of the elf soldiers.

The atmosphere immediately went heavy after that sentence said by the soldier, Aegir’s face got colder every second passed by. It seems like a fight could break out anytime.

“It seems, that your soldiers view us as a lowly goblin that only deserves to be your servants. You mock the people of our country equals to mocks the king of our kingdom, your presence is not welcomed here! Scram!” Shouted Aegir.

“You beasts, you lowly goblins, and orcs should just follow our orders obediently!” Said a certain elf soldier.

*Roaaaaar*

Sound of a griffin’s roar suddenly ranged out from the sky.

*Boooooom!!!!*

A figure suddenly crashed to the ground, sending bags of dust everywhere.

!!!!!!!!!!!!???????

A huge pressure suddenly felt by all of the elves present.

All of the elf soldiers are forced to kneel because of the overwhelming pressure inflicted on them. The elf princess also struggles to remain standing.

“Could you repeat your sentence for me?” The figure that still covered by the clouds of dust said.

The elf princess narrowed her eyes focusing on the figure that suddenly appeared in front of her.

“””Welcome back my king!!””” All of the soldiers including Aegir, Magra, Brad, Fedra, Ibra, and Gurold said.

All of them kneel to the figure that slowly visible. Oz’s muscular body, brown hairs, and clear brown eyes could now clearly seen by everyone.

‘A human?’ Thought the elf princess.

“I repeat, do you dare to repeat that sentence in front of me?” Oz said with a deep voice and a stern face.

Oz currently half-equipping all of the cards in his possession to highly boost his power. That explains the overwhelming pressure felt by the elf princess and the elf soldiers.

The elf soldier that mocks the kingdom just now wouldn’t dare to say the sentence he just said. His whole body is shivering because of the tremendous fear he felt.

‘Damn, I’m dead. I’m dead. i’m DEAD!!!’ Thought the elf soldier while sweating greatly.

“Excuse me, your majesty, please let me introduce myself. I’m the elf princess of the elf village nearby, Azaline. Please forgive my subject. I’ll discipline him myself because of his loose mouth. Please forgive me, your majesty.” Said the elf princess while bowing a little with his head.

Oz observes the elf princess.

(Green-hair, green eyes, long ears, beautiful face features, and noble disposition. Very suiting the title of elf princess)

“Let’s cut to the chase, what’s your purpose of coming here? My army will act depending on your answer.” Said Oz with a cold voice.

The mocking words of the elf soldier piqued the wrath of the usually calm Oz. Aegir and co also shiver, seeing the angry Oz.

The elf princess is quickwitted, she knew that she had got into the bad side of Oz, the current situation is very different from what she thinks will happen. She thought that the goblins that should be their meat shield for facing the demons will be weak and obedient, she thought that the goblins will surrender immediately when they surrounded them.

But the weak and cowardly goblin that she thought would be easy to be manipulated suddenly has a great and solid wall in front of them. And their presence seems to be already noticed by them, judging from the soldiers that already alerted.

But the surprises they encounter didn’t end there, the goblins and orcs that she underestimated are forming a solid formation that indicating that their ready whether they should open the fire first or take a defensive stance.

Just by seeing the formation formed by them, the elf princess knew that her soldier’s quality is greatly inferior to the goblins and orcs. Moreover, the soldiers the kingdom has are far more many than what she had calculated.

And with Oz’s arrival, the elf princess knew that she just got the short end of the stick. Her army’s quality and quantity are inferior, and the king’s presence alone made her army kneel because of the overwhelming pressure.

‘My army is surrounded, if a battle break out the outcome is obvious, we’ll definitely lose!’ Thought the elf princess.

“Our elf village nearby got attacked by an army of demons, the sudden attack made a lot of casualties. Our village that formerly consists of 2000 people, has only 1000 people left.”

“So we came to seek the help of the goblin and orcs friend that we heard have a great number and great soldiers. And it seems that the information we got is extremely accurate”

“We heard that you accepted the orcs that also got attacked by the demons, so we’re hoping that you would accept us too,” The elf princess kneels after she said the plead.

“So you’re asking, that your village wants help from our kingdom? I wonder why the princess of the elf village makes such a decision and not the king or queen of the elf village?” Asked Oz while narrowing his eyes.

Hearing that question, the face of the elf princess darken.

“My father got killed by the despicable demons. And my mother got captured by the demons.” Said the elf princess with her head facing the ground.

Oz captures the sight of a teardrop falling when the elf princess told her story.

All of the elf soldiers also looked down to the ground, seems to be reminded by the tragedy that just happened at their village.

Oz sighs.

“Fine, our Tarot kingdom will accept you, you’re free to move to our kingdom and make a place to live suitable with your taste. But with one condition, you need to spread the word to the whole forest, that our Tarot kingdom is inviting any race that wants to join our kingdom.”

“D-do you mean, that rather than just aiding our village with your soldiers, you’re offering us to join your kingdom?” Asked the elf princess enthusiastically.

“Yes, I’m aiming to make an empire rather than just a small kingdom, I’m thinking of making an empire consist of the kingdom of elf, orcs, goblins, dwarves, beastmens, and all of the other races. I would be grateful if the noble elves want to help me achieve my aims. So? Will you accept my offer?” Asked Oz with a kind smile.
