A lot of people were watching this confrontation from a distance as they looked at the moving armies of Lord Irwin and Templar Johnson . Justin’s spy was one of the guys keenly observing this particular battle after hearing about the destruction of Mercenaries .

He murmured as he looked at the patrolling officers, "It’s good that Duke Blackwolf didn’t fight directly with that count, or else we would have suffered enormous losses not to mention the threat of Beasts and Demons in West . I guess this distance was useful to us when thought of attacking that count . "

Georgio thought as he looked at the Police patrols in the town, he saw that the policemen were not tense but tried to keep their calm,

He murmured, "It seems, it is really serious . Looking at their resolve to keep calm I guess something big is happening . I better don’t miss it . No wonder Boss Duncan wanted me to keep a keen look at the movements at North-frontier city . "

He ordered his subordinate, "If there is any important news, deliver the info to me directly . This time a big operation is taking place and helping Count John would be useful to us later on . Not to mention they are our biggest suppliers of weapons currently . Prince will soon reveal his cards . "

Georgio headed towards the border as he looked at the patrols and calm streets .

Liam and his men were nowhere to be seen while Grey was keeping a look on the hostile spies that were already known to them .

At different locations, Grey and Dearil spoke to the new Ghosts without any hesitation to their men, "No need to worry as long as it is related to spies, Kill them or take them in custody if they act suspiciously and try to create chaos when we are at war . We already have enough evidence of their espionage activities if anyone raises a question, not to mention we are in a state of war currently so no need to hesitate when taking actions . Take these sketches and keep a thorough look at these guys . These guys were specially hired by the Royal family and Prince Hector and this is the time of high alert . You don’t need to worry about policemen and detectives . They will be handled by Minister Jay and cooperating with us . Except for that guy Dwight you can act on other spies . He will have a bigger use in the future . "

The new Ghosts nodded as they were already prepared for such a situation, "Yes, Sir . "

"Okay, you can leave . "

Everyone of various species left in civilian clothes as they spread to the whole city and started their operations on the foreign spies with determined looks as they knew that a war was going on at their borders .

Minister Brandon meanwhile sighed as he left the imperial city for the Ducky at Iron Rainforest, He sighed and murmured, "I guess it was impossible to stop the king and other ministers after such a proclamation from Count John, I wonder why he is so confident and why Duke Rose is betting on him . Well, I guess he has bigger plans . "

He left as he sighed .

The imperial capital was in a happy atmosphere as aristocrats and the Nobles rejoiced as they got a chance to gain honor and glory while some nobles were cursing the decision as this stopped their profitable trade with North-frontier City .

While the commoners too were supporting the crown for invasion after rigorous propaganda by the Royal family . However many had differing voices .

One of the traders at Imperial city spoke, "Of course he deserves to be invaded, he has no respect for the laws of Royal family . Not to mention that his army is full of Bandits whether it is Blake or that new General Anak . "

One of the guys who knew about North-frontier city spoke up, "What do you know? That General is praised by the surrounding villagers of Dolores . The royal family always supported those Mercenaries discreetly, Hmph . . . now, at last, that menace is finished for good or who knows how many more of those massacres of Greenwoods Village would have happened . My friend himself witnessed how the mercenaries were taking people hostage in the last battle where all of those guys were killed not to mention the collaboration of the Royal family and Prince Hector . "

the guy nodded a bit as he had a brother at the knight’s division, "hmm . . . but it still doesn’t change the fact that he doesn’t respect the Royal family and most of the people at power have done bad deeds for their interests . "

The other guy sighed and just gave one advice as he left for Duke Rose’s domain, "This will be a bloody war from what I know and this time Royal family is invading their lands, what do you think? how would the local populace react to it? It would be better if you love your brother and his morality because after this war his morality will certainly change since he is in the army . "

Soon Irwin smiled as he was charging slowly with his army and Magic Ballista team, he thought, ’This guy is in for a surprise today . This guy’s empty bluster will end today . The people at Capital are making a mountain out of a mole when they are talking about this general . ’

"Charge and start targeting their Castle at 800m- 1000m mark . I would surely like to see their shocked expressions after the first assault and the range of our ballistas . "

One of the commanders laughed as he was itching to use these ballistas, "Hahaha, those guys are surely nothing in front of us the Royal Knights . Today is the day they will know what is worse than hell . I would like to see their horror and despair when they would beg for their lives . However, they have already sinned after that traitorous announcement previously . "

Johnson and his men soon diverted and were going to assault the castle from the sides . All of the templars had siege weapons as they slowly moved away .

Johnson roared as he saw that Irwin had started acting, "Today is the day when this city of sinners pays the price for insulting the Radiant church . I am sure all of you templars are charged up and can’t wait to punish these sinners . Today, this wait is over, the only thing stopping us from spreading the Word of God is that accursed city and those castles . If we are able to achieve our mission, we will be able to spread the word of God 100 times faster, no 1000 times faster . "

John made a cunning smile as he heard their warcries and waited for the right time to silence them all . All of the men at the Southern Castle had resolute faces as they waited for their enemy to invade their castles .

John smiled and spoke after looking at the opposite army’s bluster, "I guess they are overestimating their new ballistas, its good that Master was able to find out about their factory which will reduce our losses . I would like to see their expressions of horror and shock when they witness the power of our cannons and rifles . "

Arlen nodded as he agreed with John, as he thought, ’Well I know exactly how they would react, it would be just like those mercenaries were killed by Rifles . ’

Irwin was proudly charging with the army as he and his army held their heads high as if this war would be a piece of cake .

The previous commander was still bragging as he charged with his men, "This time we would ace this battle . We had the best results in training so far So I hope this battle will be stepping stone for us to rise to higher ranks . "

However, as he bragged soon everyone heard an explosion which came from the castle .

Irwin’s subordinate remarked as he thought, ’Are they mad? They are already firing? We aren’t even near the 1-mile mark . ’
