Chapter 1503 1503. Catching Up

"How were you delayed?" Alma had arrived at the wall just at the same time as Scylla and the demi-human army. With them was a volunteer force from those that had participated in the coliseum battles.

The very same day that all the others had left, Scylla had been faced with a grand gesture. The participants had seen many leave with the armies and stop fighting to prepare. Those that remained banned together under the most experienced fighters to declare that they wished the coliseum battles to end until every race on the continent was at peace.

It was unprecedented. Never had Scylla seen such a thing and never had she imagined she would be able to take their offer and run with it. She had ensured to all of them that they had chosen the proper path as a warrior. Why waste their energy in battles to decide the strongest when they could be following their hearts to pursue freedoms for everyone?

With that, she had gained some of the closest warrior groups she had ever seen. They were already trusting one another with such courage that it was impossible to tell that they had just teamed up. The singular desire to bring their goals to fruition was exactly the energy Genesis was founded on.

"There was an outbreak of fire slimes further down the walls. I believe that the slime breeder under the demon's control has done so on purpose. There were two villages burned to the ground. We managed to rescue many but were too late for some." Scylla felt that she had already lost a battle before she had even arrived.

"Despicable. I was told that acid slimes and decaying slimes were running rampant. The demon lord in charge of the soldiers seems to be pulling them back and ordering absolute chaos. We have no new information other than a few villages that have been freed. We need to press on." Alma found herself feeling the exact same way as Scylla.

? Then you two will need to split your forces. There are multiple routes to clear out every village. Healers from my home have already been sent. King Rorick is already helping the walls. And from what I have been told, the dwarven golems have arrived in the east and are following the routes already. Their speed was impressive but they used a great amount of mana to get here sooner." King August had rushed to where Scylla and Alma were going to arrive to greet them.

"My queen and king sent us with you to remain united. But we did not expect to see such things. There is a dragon sitting on the wall there. Dragonkin roaming the grounds. Humans working with elves. And dwarven soldiers fixing equipment for the demi-humans to use. You didn't tell us even half of the truths we see."

The dark elf that had greeted Alma on the mountain was speaking in the stead of the dark queen. The stone elf that came with had taken the position to speak for the stone king. "You said there was more. Merfolk? Where are they?" This was the only race missing. The grey haired siders and goblins, as well as the harpies, were just seen but them too.

"They are circling around to the demon coastlines. They will be ambushing the demon villages on the other side along with helping any cities that may get attacked in this chaos." Alma filled the two in.

"Then it sounds like we are wasting time here. We will remain together. Dark elves and stone elves work better together." The two seemed adamant about this because they were so used to their teams. Alma was not going to stop this from happening. She knew this would allow them to trust her if she trusted them.

"The demon, Wrath, was dealt with By Barry and he is recovering still. The sooner you set out to handle the other demon soldiers that are around the better. And the sooner you catch up to the other groups the sooner we make it to the capital." King August had already handed Scylla and Alma detailed reports. But he wanted them to read while on the move. He had to ensure that those that could go, would go and do their best.

"Then we will start preparing. I will take soldiers with Alma to catch up to Walker's party. They have dragonkin with them, correct?" Scylla knew that with the way that Walker and his party worked, they would happen to run in to something strange.

"I have no issues with that. I want to introduce them to Gil." Alma motioned to the two elves behind her. They had heard of the party while they rushed through the lands to get here. But Alma had been very focused on understanding battle capacity over other details. It was just a situational happenstance.

"I wish you two good luck and safe travels." King August didn't hesitate. He still had many commanders to check in with. They needed supplies and reinforcements. Then he would be able to bring news back to Genesis before heading back to Diamond.

"Please follow my lead." The shadow next to Scylla warped a little revealing a dragonkin assassin.

"You must work under Mordant. You and his other dragonkin are specialized in darkness elemental skills. I am impressed that you are able to get so close." Scylla had sensed the dragonkin but knew that he meant no harm. There were twenty others hiding around to protect the important figures along the wall. She was able to sense them through the displacement of mana and strangely larger shadows some people had.

"That is a great compliment. I have met the shadows of the adventurer's guild recently. They have very similar skills that lag behind outs slightly. They will play the same role of protection that we have. But my lord has told me to guide those in need through the fastest paths."

"You will have a chance to meet the dark elves. They are the dark elemental focus of the elven people. I hope you can get along. They will be coming to Genesis to view the races coming together later." The dragonkin gave a polite nod to Alma when she introduced the two elves behind her.

It only took half an hour to split the elves and demi-human soldiers. At that time the first dwarven golems arrived at their section of wall.

"Now tell me! Where are those two other leaders of troops!?" The shout was from none other than the king of the surface. He had forced the king of the middle to return so that he could take the lead with the soldiers. He had the most expertise leading them and the king of the deep would be with the other golems already marking along the walls.

"You are here in time. I am Alma, we have met before and That is Scylla, I also believe you have met before. We are splitting and marching along the paths. Please join us. Your golem looks like the perfect defender for our group to move unimpeded." Alma didn't hesitate to invite the king of the surface. Waiting any longer would just complicate things.

"Now you are a very decisive person. Let's go! I hope all elves are like you. I rarely speak to em but times are changing." This was more than the king of the surface had handled in some time. He was ready for a fight where he could use his strategies to the pique.

"Full of fire and intellect. Good. I wanted to have some tough warriors beside me. Did you build this golem?" Scylla liked the looks of the minotaur golem. It had been styled after the ancient minotaurs with tougher attack and defenses. It also had decent speed to handle just about any opponent on land.

"I just provided the ideas. They are my personal golems to handle my personal security. They have not seen battle since I was a few years younger. But they do have some improvements." The king of the surface didn't have any means to hold back. He had liked Walker's party when they came to him and now he liked everything he had seen. Not to mention the improvement in trades leaving and coming to the dwarven city.

"It is incredible. The golems that the dwarves have. We have missed too much." The dark elf was stunned while speaking with the stone elf.

"I feel that she was right. We did hide away too long. The world has changed and we need to catch up. Peace is right in the grasp of every race. If we had fought them and right to hide more….I believe we would be exiled forever." The stone elf found his eyes opened wide. He was seeing things he never thought possible.

"Our fellow elves are ready, they have followed the orders we handed out. Future queen of the high elves, Alma, we are ready." This sudden appeal to Alma made her feel that she had finally made proper headway. She was earning the respect of those that had been lost.
