"Fuck… Not good…" A sudden intrusion into the skies directly above the city wasn't something that the local guards would accept. Unless the young man could come up with a reason to return back to the ground where he could apologise for the commotion he caused, there was a chance that someone would simply shoot him down from the skies! "I need to descend now… Slowly, slowly… Take it easy brother…" Speaking to himself to calm his nerves, Fen quickly spread his wings and angled them to enter a…-

"Are you really sure about that?" Holding on to Fen's naked arm, Orhsa once again protested against his looming departure. With how dealing with the cleaning up after their little conquest sapped their strength and time for days, it was quite a hit for her when after just a single night they could actively spend together, the young arcanist would already prepare to set off. "This is our best bet. Without the backing of Kinar, we are easy prey to anyone who could bother to reach our borders. And while…

"God, I would never think that we would end up like that. Honestly speaking, I'm relieved. I really didn't want to condemn all those people for this pointless fight…" After the entire ceremonial surrender, the atmosphere between the local governor and the three of the mercenary commanders changed on its head. Instead of lack of trust, careful attitude and overall - the pain in the ass that accompanies any existing conflict, the governor turned out to be quite a normal man. "First thing off, I'm Hexal.…

"And that's generally the gist of it. So, what do you think guys?" Once the preliminary agreement was reached, it took only a few moments for both Victor and Orsha to appear. Just to make sure, Fen had the lord's party remain in the vincity, officially for the sake of hastening the entire process of negotiations while in reality, it was just a simple protective move. After all, if the entire command of the army were to gather up all the while allowing the lord to carry that message back to his…

Even though it was for different reasons, sieges always were a nightmare for both sides in the conflict. That was most likely the reason behind the local lord's strategy. Instead of enclosing his entire army within a single area and risking starvation, he decided to give Fen's forces a battle right outside of a small valley that they had to go through. Basing on pure strategy, this move was counterproductive. With how relatively narrow the passage was, lord's forces could only use a small part of their…

"I can't believe that we did it. Even now, it's still hard for me to acknowledge that we created a country for ourselves…" Shaking his head from the heigh of his horse, Victor murmured under his nose. "Then you better get used to this idea quick. After all, we are not done… stabilising the situation yet." This was the sad reality of their current position. To declare some lands as theirs was one thing, and to actually turn them into obedient possession was something entirely else. So far, their…

"No fucking way. This is not what our deal was." Just like expected, it was one thing to come up with an idea and another to turn it into reality. Thankfully, no matter how much their employer would protest, the common folk in his army already praised the young mercenary that saved them from the massacre as their hero, making it nearly impossible for the man to use them against the mercenaries. And it would suffice to say that with the two mercenary groups combined, it would be tough to find a force…

While the sleeping place that Fen had in his tent couldn't be called comfortable by any means, in his current position he was as far from complaining as a man could be. With soft Orsha's body lying on top of him as her hips continued to slowly jerk up and down, one might think that the girl continued to express her gratitude in this manner, but in reality, it was nothing more but the muscle memory of this girl after the wildness of the last few hours. Moving his hands up and down the girl's spine, Fen…

"That's one nice campfire…" In any normal situation, seeing a man covered from his feet to his forehead in blood, calmly commenting on the visual experiences he had while watching a huge stack of burning wood would at least make everyone else feel strange. Yet, in this particular situation, the atmosphere around was too jovial for anyone to care. "But man, I gotta say this. I didn't expect for your plan to work so well!" Pointing to the side with his chin, Victor accepted some kind of rag that one of…

At first, the situation was quite strange for the small group of men that was tasked with following this foreign mercenary. While it was obvious that he had to be the mastermind behind the sudden change of their tasks, for some reason he was also the only one that wasn't given a horse! Yet, it didn't matter. As soon as Fen given the order, he released the dams of his power, allowing his fire to take over. In but a single moment, the young man's catalyst surfaced to the physical plane of the world,…
