Chapter 26

Chapter 26
Warning: Gore, Strong and Offensive Language

THE BATTLEFIELD was being thundered by cries and orders. From the Vassily Empire's foundation to the Algrande Empire's devastated gates, loud screams of fear, grief, and suffering could be heard echoing throughout the wide, ravaged region. Even though it was already well into the night, the moon was shining brightly than normal, providing clear views of the slain warriors who had fought for their beloved country and their very lives.

The destruction caused by the warring civilizations is now in its fifth week. The conflict between the Vassily and the Algrande took place once more. The Algrande empire's dead outnumbered its living citizens, and the Vassily people are still waging war. Because the Algrande Emperor is somewhere in the palace and it would be too dangerous for Emperor Massimo to search every corridor for him, the battle cannot be stopped.

No one has yet returned from the search for the Emperor's foe to bring news. They lack rest, but the Emperor is evidently taking good care of himself while leading his people.

Emperor Massimo shouted at the opponent soldiers, "Your King is a coward! I have to find him right away, I can't wait any longer!"

"Your majesty? What's your destination? What does this mean, exactly?" his Knight inquired.

"Fucking coward. I'm about to erase his people and he's still not coming out? That bastard, his people are vanishing already and his empire is going to burn sooner and yet he's nowhere to be found? Is he even alive right now?" said the Emperor as he mounted his horse and prepared his weapons and sword.

The Knight quavered and enquired, "What are you preparing to do, your highness?"

With a grin on his face, he raised his sword and said, "I believe you'll do your best to command my people. I'll take the greatest danger to put a stop to this conflict by going inside every chamber in that despicable empire so I could return because I have something waiting for me in my palace and I can't stand by while this battle continues. That cuckoo, that idiot Emperor, that coward, fucking cuckoo!" He muttered angrily.

“Your highness, it's too dangerous—”

The Emperor Massimo, however, was too obstinate, saying, "I will not retreat from this storm, which is yet another challenge for me. I am ascending and will accept my promotion at this time. I can't fucking wait until that blasted Emperor finally appears. It is my duty and responsibility to protect my subjects until my dying breath. It appears that I was meant for this."

"Your Highness..."

Deep rage filled his eyes as he turned to face his people, "Don't worry, I won't fucking die. Screw you all if you have me dying in your mind. Yeah, fuck you and your rotten thinking. I'm the strongest here and I won't die easily, bastards!" he roared, impatience etched across his face.

"Please take me along." His Knight said.

However, Emperor Massimo simply shrugged his eyes and mounted his steed to ride towards the palace. Along with him, his people rose, joining him in an onslaught against the Algrande warriors. Eventually, one of the soldiers dispatched to hunt for the Algrande emperor returned with excellent news;

The soldier announced, "My Emperor, I discovered him! He was hiding at the temple! But he's going to his palace now! I can escort you there!"
