Under the pitch darkness of night, an obscure figure ran across the plains.
The sound of his faint footsteps broke the silence of the night along with the rustling noise which was created as his body passed through the tall grasses and bushes.
He slowed down on reaching the bank of the river and looking around for a moment, turned his back and leaned against an old tree trunk.
He sensed a man from the other side and hit the trunk to let him know.
"Code Alpha, do you have the identity of the man?" A faint sound came from the other side of the tree.
The man wore a similar costume while his face was covered with a cloak.
"That armoured man who wreaked havoc is the King of Nevan."
"..."
The entire atmosphere turned silent for a moment.
Thinking about no reply coming from another side, the traitor coughed a few times.
"Code alpha are sure about that?" The other man asked with a questioning gaze.
Although the news of the King of Nevan being recovered from being a retard was known to Amidon, there was no news of him coming over to Wright to assist directly.
Moreover, shouldn't it be only his troops? How come the King marched himself to the battlefield this early and no one knew a thing about it.
"I am 100 percent sure about it. He is the King of Nevan. According to rumours he came for Christina."
"Got it."The man spoke and asked further"Any news about tomorrow."
" Yeah, I have a piece of good news. Amidon had a great opportunity to counterattack. All the soldiers from Wright and Nevan are celebrating now and have been wasted drinking."
"Even the guards over the walls have been too drunk to keep their eyes open. So, you mustn't miss the opportunity now."
"If you attack with all your forces, you all surely have a chance to take down the fortress. Most of them couldn't even lift their weapons, let alone fight properly."
"King of Nevan is still a retard and an idiot. Who can he host a banquet and order the soldiers to drink to their heart's content amid the war?"
"Moreover, the King of Nevan is an arrogant fellow. He said that this small minion army of Amidon is worth a fart. He can kill them even when he is sleeping and beat them like dogs.'
"Quickly, inform your superior about the situation and be hasty."The traitor urged to attack the Fortress as quickly as possible under the darkness of night.
" Okay, I will relay everything to the Commander. After we take down the Fortress as promised it will be under your command and your statutes would be alleviated to noble."The man on the other side spoke and left quickly.
"Phewwww!" The man exhaled heavily and wiped off the sweat from his forehead.
He had been walking on a tightrope by betraying the soldiers of Wright but there was not an ounce of regret in his heart because the fall of Wight lay the path for his rise.
So for the betterment of his future and the future of the next generation, he has to take such a gamble but in the end, he was sure that Amidon would crush Wright and win the war easily.
The man heard the sound of steps fading away and finally decided to leave.
Today will be the last day of his struggle, the final day of his miserable life and the next day will mark the new beginning, a life filled with riches.
A faint smile appeared on his face thinking about the bright future ahead but he hardly had taken a step when a hand appeared over his shoulder and wrapped over his neck.
The man shrugged his shoulder and tried to shake the unknown person away and tried to get out of the unknown man's clutch.
"Wooohhh!Woh!"
"My friend! Calm down a bit. I lost my way and forgot the road to the fortress."
The man heard a soft and gentle voice and turned his head to see who appeared beside him.
But as soon as his eyes met with the person who appeared beside him, his whole existence trembled in fear and he felt as if his soul had escaped leaving behind his body.
Beside him was not anyone else but the King of Nevan in himself who was smiling brightly displaying his set of white teeth which was overflowing with radiance.
Although he wasn't able to see his figure properly under the darkness of night, he could still see the glowing red eyes of a predator
Alex raised the flame torch in his other hand to light up the area so that the man could see him more clearly.
"Yo...Your...Majesty!" The man shouted with a trembling voice.
"My dear Friend and brave warrior, what are you doing here in this lonely place ?" Alex asked with an angelic voice.
"I...I came here to take a shitpiss...I mean to take a shit than piss."
"Friend, why do you have to piss here in this place," Alex spoke while looking around to see if this place was full of shit.
"I just came for a stroll but had an urge to take shit so I came near the river to finish the job."
Alex controlled his urge from laughing hard seeing the man trembling in fear while spouting anything that came into his mind.
"I see..." Alex nodded his head with an understanding look and stared at the man's eye and spoke with a sweet angelic voice.
"Soldier!!You did your work splendidly."
"You have done your part quite well my friend and made my work quite easy."
"Without, I don't know how I would be able to trap the enemy. People like you are God sent, I wish I have more people like you on my side but damn man."
"These people don't have the balls of steel like you, "Alex spoke and gently scared his face and held his chin.
"Since, your work is finished. Please Rest In Piss, my traitor friend."
"I will make sure that other will piss on your corpse to give you a special tribute."
Alex's voice rang like a death sentence into the man's ears which was followed by a loud and shrill cry of deathly wail which shook the entire place.
......
Inside Amidon's army camp.
The commander snapped his fingers while thinking carefully.
Besides him a squad of generals were present.
He had been already pissed to death by his troop's performance. All the master ranks had been killed leaving behind these useless scums.
Weighing both pros and cons, he finally opened his eyes.
Their stocks of food and rations had been burned so they couldn't last more than 1 and half days. So, they have to bring down the fortress within the stipulated time and this opportunity came at the perfectly right time knocking on their doors.
He had to take the risk or wait for his demise.
"Prepare the army, set ahead. I will be the one who will lead everything now."
"We will attack with all the remaining forces." The commander ordered while explaining things.
Wearing black chain armour, which perfectly blended with the darkness of night, he set forward.
They still had more than 2000 soldiers which was more than enough to sweep everything. Moreover, with how unguarded the fortress was today, he was sure that they might not even know how they died.
But his confidence didn't even last for more than ten minutes when a huge explosion shook them off, giving them a huge blow.
A nightmare that was going to be etched in the bones of the surviving soldiers which would haunt their entire existence for their lifetime.
Alas, only if any one of them survived.
