Chapter 19: Alliance of Warlocks

Inside the tent were about 40 people of different statuses. Even the guards at the entrances of the tent had quality amour that could strike awe into the hearts of the common man. These were powerful men in this tent.

Among them, a few stood out. The Elders. Carrying an air of dignity and nobility, stood in the forefront of the group.

—Bump!!

While Leon was observing the camp and its inhabitants, a massive body bumped into him, causing him to stagger backwards a little

Turning back to see who he had hit, the man frowned at the sight of Leon. He turned to Arian and spat out, "Put that thing in chains"!

He didn't know what she was thinking by bringing a lowly warlock into the war room. Just the sight of Leon pissed him off. If he wasn't so busy, he would have thrown Leon out himself.

Of course, he would have to go through Arian first. She didn't really give the man an audience, only keeping her focus on the talk from the higher ups.

"4 clan have been surrounded along kolan mountain here, our troops effectively pushed them into the same location, so we can finish them. But the unexpected has happened. The gray salamander clan, the seven feet ground mole clan and two others have formed an alliance".

In the middle of the room, a strategic analyst stood with a cane in hand explaining the situation. An alliance between these warlock clans was very rare, most of them had ancestral hate between each other and would rather die than work together. Their alliance was unprecedented.

"What's the rush? Our forces still outnumber them, plus, do you really believe that these savages can maintain an alliance? Once one side falls, they'll tuck tail and run." an elder in the crowd spoke. He had a short cane in his hand and a look of carefreeness on his face. He was confident that they could wear the Warlocks down and minimize loss of lives.

"Yes elder, this is indeed the case with the disgusting Warlocks. However, this is not what we are worried about. From the intelligence we gathered, they are currently building a passage through the mountain with the help of the ground mole clan."

Leon didn't notice this out of place scene up until the meeting reached its climax.

They had come to an agreement. Arian's group would be responsible for handling the gray salamander clan. They were to head over immediately.

"Let's go" Arian said causally while she walked past Leon and existed the tent with various memebers of the group.

Seeing this, Leon quickly followed.

Outside the tent, several horses were already saddled and ready to move out and join the attack on the warlock alliance.

"Shu shu shu" Arian grabbed the reins of the horse in front of her and soothed it down. Then she looked over at Leon.

"Chains or no chains" Arian spoke calmly, yet her eyes were filled with some worry. Leon had two choices, and whichever he chose would either make this mission easy on her or hard.

If he decided to stay in chains then by their oath, he wouldn't try to escape while she was left the camp to go on her mission.

But if he decided the other option, he would have to follow her into battle and with any given chance, he could try to escape, forcing her to abandon everything and go after him.

It was a troublesome situation.

"Hehe, I've been so bored in the camp. I think I would like to get a good stretch in"

Leon's response was simple, but it would cause Arian alot of trouble. She couldn't help but dread what kind of trouble Lance might cause her on the battlefield.
