The Golden Throne

Chapter 210: Arad Returns

“You don’t want to tell them when the last battle is? What if they slack off, thinking that this is going to be your normal siege that we are going through so easily? The next battle could well be one of the largest battles that these soldiers ever face. I mean, there weren’t any wars in the last two decades that I was unaware of, were there?”, Liu Feng said.

“No. There weren’t any wars.”, Liu Man quickly said.

“This is effective boy. You got what you want. Let the proper people discuss this now. You can leave.”, Balor dismissed Liu Feng.

Liu Feng shrugged as he turned around to leave the tent.

“And I hope that for the next few days, for the next week, you make sure that no trouble is caused. We are going to be taking a behemoth task, going all the way to the capital in one stroke. It will be exhausting for us, and it is better if we make sure that no problems occur. And almost every problem that happened till now had you involved.”, Damascus said.

“That will not be an issue, Your Majesty. I will be out of the camp for the next two days, as I have to prepare something else. I will be with you after I complete that.”, Liu Feng said.

“What are you doing now? We need you here. Who will take care of those unruly kids? Especially after you scared them so much?”, Damascus asked.

“This is another task that the master of the mage tower has given me that will help with the war. As for the leadership, I am sure that your son, Alderan will do a stellar job. But after the dawn of tomorrow, I must go back, and start preparing.”, Liu Feng said.

“You are such an unreliable person. I regret starting this war already.”, Damascus sighed. Liu Feng smiled wryly as he bowed once more and left the tent.

The sun was slowly setting at this time, but Liu Feng had no idea where Arad and the phoenix were. He was even taken all the way outside the camp, but he still didn’t meet them yet.

“Should I just go back to the city and see if they are done with the fight?”, Liu Feng wondered out loud.

“I suggest that you do not, child.”, Primitus suddenly said.

“Primitus! Finally, a spirit answered. What the hell happened to me? Who was that person? He felt much more powerful than even the dragon king and the king of the magical forest. What is this? I thought that they were the most powerful people on the continent.”, Liu Feng asked.

“If the two most powerful people gathered only in one place, then the whole continent would have been overrun years ago. There are many things in the world that you are too weak to understand. Just grow more child. Once you are in the eighth order, slowly, things will start falling in place.”, Primitus said.

“If even you cannot answer who this man is, then how will I ever know?”, Liu Feng asked.

Primitus chuckled. “You will know if you are ever meant to know. You should know that what he said was very interesting. The fact that you got a second chance. I had my doubts when I saw your soul form, but it was interesting. You are meant to do a lot, so you do not need to stress yourself. Focus on the fight at hand.”, he said.

“Why does everyone keep saying that all of a sudden, like I am taking it too lightly. For the last three months, all I have done was focus on the fight that is coming. I have pulled all of the stops, yet everyone expects a little more.”, Liu Feng gnashed his teeth as he thought to himself. He kept walking in a random direction.

He had nothing to do right now, and he was in no mood to go back to his tent. Keeping aside the fact that he did not have a tent allotted to him, just looking at all of the other students irritated him a little more than he already was. 

He continued walking as he was lost deep in thought.

“What are you doing, walking here?”, he heard a voice behind him. He quickly shook his head and looked behind him.

“Arad!”, he exclaimed.

“The fight was over. The phoenix deserved it, as the magical forest had heavier losses the last time the demons attacked. It was only fair. Next time, however, this honor shall be for the dragons.”, Arad said.

“Right. There is this as well. I still can’t believe such a stupid tradition exists.”, Liu Feng thought to himself, but he made sure not to show his disrespect outside.

“Is there anything new? I felt a strange presence in the camp, and I was worried that you were dead. Who was it that arrived?”, Arad asked.

“You felt that as well? I tried investigating it, but all the spirits told me that this person who had arrived was someone that I did not need to know. But the person told me that I had to go to the capital and finish the war within the week, or there will be consequences.”, Liu Feng said.

Arad’s face suddenly changed. 

“It is that person? He personally came here to help Liu Feng? That is surprising. Shocking even.”, Arad suddenly said. He then looked at Liu Feng.

“You must listen to this person. He is a very important person, and he does not have any reason to lie. If he tells us that we need to finish the war in a week, then we must try our best to do that.”, Arad said.

“Even you know who it is? Why is everyone secretive with me though?”, Liu Feng asked.

“No offense, but you are not powerful enough to know about these matters.”, Arad said.
