《The Battle Mage》Approaching War
Advertisement
We were about to leave the mansion but we were stopped by a carriage before a messenger came out.
"Sir. Lyan?" The messenger asked me
"Yes, how may I help you?" I replied
"The King wishes to see you" He respectfully opened up the carriage for me to enter
"You guys go ahead and train, I'll see the king," I told the others but Mira and Arachne stood beside me
"Sure thing Cap" Clay and the others went on their way as Mira, Arachne and I entered the carriage
It took us a couple of minutes before we arrived at the castle, now that I look at it closely it looks like I'm looking at the Disney land castle. The walls are also high, about 30 feet tall and archers were always patrolling. We made our way inside, the castle interior was like that of a church, there was stained glass everywhere. We entered a private room where the King was patiently waiting.
"King" I bowed, Arachne and Mira followed suite, I really hate formalities
"Like father like son, you guys really hate formalities don't you" The King laughed heartily, we took a seat on the sofa in front of him
"Uncle, why did you call us here" I'll just drop the formalities
"You made the prince of Sigrid impotent" The King laughed
"Trust me Uncle, that's letting him off light" I laughed
"Problem is, the King of Sigrid won't let this go"
"I expected this much"
"Now he demands to be compensated or else we will go to war"
"But I already gave him compensation"
"What?"
"I gave the women of his kingdom a peace of mind, I mean, there's no more rapist on the loose right?" I chuckled
"Cheeky kid, war is inevitable. I'm willing to fight the Sigrid kingdom but the problem is that we already have our hands full with the demons invading"
"So you want to settle this problem as swiftly as possible without any casualties on our side" I asked
"That's pretty much about it"
"How many men can you lend me?" I asked

"Embarrassingly... none, but I can lend you most of the castle guards and archers for one day, they amount to a total of 100. 30 archers and 70 royal guards do not underestimate them though" The King warned me
This is going to be a problem, I can't fight with only 100 men. If I want my plan to work then I'll need at least 300 more, looks like I'm going to call home.
"Then, I'll borrow them one week from now" I requested the King
"Done, do you have a plan?" The King asked
"Yeah"
"Care to share it?"
"I'll just surprise you" I laughed
"*Sigh* as your future father-in-law, please don't give me a heart attack" The King had a sly smile as he watched me stiffen up when Mira and Arachne had both their hands on my waist
"I-I believe Mileena has the right to choose her husband, right?" I struggled to speak
"Indeed she does, however, it seems that she fancies you" The King grinned from ear to ear
"Mira, Arachne....it hurts" They kept pinching and twisting my waist
"Hmm? What do you mean it hurts~" Arachne was smiling while Mira was quietly pinching my waist, sometimes silence is scarier than actually releasing anger
"Thank you uncle, but look at the time, looks like I have to be somewhere" I struggled to escape their pinches before apologizing to the King and leaving
I ran away but Mira and Arachne managed to catch up to me, Arachne still had her smile while Mira still had that cold look
"Hi guys" I smiled blissfully as I greeted them while running
"Lyan is such a womanizer~ leave him alone and he brings back a woman home" Arachne managed to grab on to my left arm
"Haha, I don't understand" Seriously, I can't control it
"No choice, we'll have to tie him up and lock him in the mansion" Mira produced a rope out of nowhere
'I want BDSM play too!' Rea really has the worst timing
Mira caught me by the right arm and they started dragging me back to the mansion.

We were now in my room, Mira was holding onto a rope while Arachne was playing with her web. I'm done for, I can never escape them... I can't act cute and innocent or beg my way out, so I'll have to use guilt. I kneeled and looked at them with puppy eyes before saying
"I'm sorry, I never knew that the princess would fall in love with me so punish me!" I said as I tore off my shirt dramatically
The two didn't react but they smiled a little before hitting me with all they've got, I could only scream and run around trying to evade their every hit. This continued for an hour until they finally gave up and just laid down on my bed to take a nap, I covered them with my blanket before going out to the living room
I took out a large comm. cube that my mom gave Mira, I infused my mana into it
"...llo ..Hello? can you hear me? Lyan, you there?" I heard my mom's voice as mom and dad's hologram popped up
"Hey Mom, hey dad" I greeted them
"Well? tell me your problem" Mom gave me a look
"Wait what?" she had that inquisitive look
"Your dad received a call from the King hours" Mom said as Dad took out a tissue to wipe imaginary tears from his eyes
"Never thought my son would marry the daughter of my best friend" Dad was laughing
"Wait, I never agreed to anything"
"By now I bet Mira and Arachne are preparing to punish you" Mom laughed
"They already did" I took off my shirt and showed them my stomach where Mira and Arachne wrote weird things like 'Cheater' and 'Womanizer'
"I feel bad for you son" Dad was struggling to stifle his laughter
"That aside, is there anything else?" mom asked
"Well, you see..." I explained everything as I asked to borrow 300 men
"That man brings shame to the title 'Hero'" Dad spoke
"They'll be at your place in the next 6 days" Mom laughed
"Thanks mom and dad"
"Don't worry... KIDS?!" mom was laughing but she suddenly cried out
"Honey, calm down, what is it?" Dad asked mom
"K-Kids! Lyan has Kids!!" mom was so excited she kept screeching like a young girl in love
"What?!" Dad was shocked
I looked behind and spotted Riza and Ritzu peeking
"Ly-Lyan, when did you have a child?!" Mom's face was so close to the comm. cube that her whole face was projected on the hologram
"Riza, Ritzu, come here" I smiled as I beckoned the two kids. The two kids meekly walked and arrived beside me
"Mom, Dad, these are Riza and Ritzu, they were orphans I took in" I introduced them to mom and dad
"You know what Lyan? we're coming there too! see you then cuties~" Mom laughed and cut off the call
"Looks like you'll be having a mom and dad" Or grandad and grandmom
The two kids could only stare at me in wonder
"We never had a mom and dad" Riza spoke
"Well, you'll be getting one now" I laughed as I patted their heads
Now, I'll have to go prepare food for over 300 people. I'm pretty sure they will be bringing their own tents and food rations but still, I have to prepare food for them because I already ate their food rations once... they were not good
We don't have refrigerators yet so I have no choice but to make an Icehouse, an Icehouse was used in 1890's I think. First I have a deep pit, the walls have to made out of thick woods before placing thick ice within burying the pit. I started midday and was finished before dinner, we all had dinner together as Riza and Ritzu expressed joy and excitement as they kept talking about having a mom and dad.
The next day, Clay and I went out to clear a spot for the soldiers to set up camp.
