Dominatrix System

Chapter 26

The retreat which seemed to be the best choice of words for it continued. Constant streams of mana seemed to fluctuate. Miss Green was looking serious as the time passed the amount of mana moving increased instead of decreasing. I stayed to the side knowing that something big happened I did not know what but the expression on my teacher's face spoke volumes. Her expression kept getting worse and worse as we rode through the night slowing the pace for the animals. We stopped once to give the animals a break and that was it.

I just bonded with my cubs enjoying my time with them they were really starting to attach to me as I fed them. I smiled down at them. This was the first time I had ever had a pet I wish I had one in my previous incarnation. Now I will have more pets in the future Freya and Stacy came to mind and my smile turned more sadistic.

After hours of travel into the next day, the coachmen said the animals needed a rest of a couple of hours. We got out and made a fire to eat as the animals ate and rested. We just ate as more and more mana moved I was amazed by the sheer amount but It came to a slow trickle then stopped. We rested for half an hour more before we went back to our carriage to finish the journey.

"Sally, I think things are going to change," She simply stated, "The beast you killed were on neutral ground and had a fight the loser was to become the next King candidate to the mountains. The beasts are pissed. To make it worse the cubs you took are Specter Tigers and the cubs of one of the neutral faction leading figures, A gathering was going on when you killed their weak aunt and kidnapped their cubs. Then that same Human killed what was essentially the mountains Next King just after an honorable battle. This is equivalent to declaring war. The beast who is on the side of not going to war with humans has no ground to walk on. The fucked up part is they just don't care anymore we are already retreating all students as fast as we can with teleportation enchantments and fleeing Adventurers are being recalled and the kingdom is preparing for war. The King said they will not throw a good seed after bad refusing to give you up. The Beasts only want to kill you regardless of your side of the story. Both sides have been wanting a war and now you have become the excuse they need." She sighed and looked to have aged in the last ten minutes. "The mountains are massive and go through four other kingdoms making it massive we do not have much information on their war power but this will be a war that you started without even knowing whats going on."

"Miss Green I have several questions to that," I start, "Miss Green I wasn't that deep Why were those beasts there? Second Why were we in such a hostile territory if the beasts and the kingdom are so close to war? Third Why do the Beasts and the Kingdom want to go to war in the first place? Fourth, Why are we training killing what I would essentially call their citizens without that causing war?"

She sighed, "First You were deeper than you think you were a fucking normal person week and a half in Sally you walk and run faster than most It took me more mana than Id like to reach you that quick and that was with the help of enchantments. Second and Forth can be answered at the same time, Mutual training we both lose people they can train and gain experience. We gain more experienced Adventurers who have been in battles and they weed out the weak ones and the ones who survive become stronger. It is beneficial to both parties we sharpen Good sticks and toss out the trash to put a simpler analogy to it. The third point though is more complicated. They have a lot of territory in our kingdom with the resources that go with that. They refuse to let us go mine it or even trade for them It weakens the Kingdom whereas they don't need those resources and live on an even stricter Strong eat weak system. It is more than that but their politics are even more complicated than ours. For decades they want more territory and we want more territory and resources. Both sides are looking at each other and yes it would be difficult for humans to live there in the mountains but we could make mining towns. They look at us and see the resources and things they could use too. Both of us fear each other's power but will not back down from a fight. The Marquis behind your back defended you with a zeal I didn't think would happen. But I think he sees the same as the academy and that you will be stronger than yourself now in the future.
