Chapter 429 Circles Of Fireflies

As soon as the work was done, Felis went back to the monastery along with Kaitos and others. And now he had to wait. He was going to wait for one full day and then attack the Kingdom of Pegasii along with the monks.

He was satisfied with himself. The two faes were going to kill every damn fae that was present in the kingdom hence eliminating the worst threat. Felis was only afraid of faes. As for the werewolves, that wasn't a problem. His Nyxers were going to take care of it easily. He knew that by the end of the day after he was going to take over Pegasii and that too so easily.

Felis lifted his feet on the writing table as his warriors rounded the monks. Kaitos was made to sit in between five warriors and was a queen bee of the monks. If they misbehaved, Felis was going to kill Kaitos and then give others a slow and painful death in order to instill fear.

The servants of the Cetus monastery were too scared of the latest developments. None of them dared to get out of the monastery, fearing that the Nyxers would kill them. It was the king of Hydra they were dealing with and not just any other Nyxer. They brought food for them for the whole day.

When it was night, Felis couldn't sleep out of anticipation. Gamon and Brix had rounded all the monks to make them ride to Pegasii the next day. They had also gone to the stables to check on the horses.

Gamon came back and asked, "What time do we leave?"

Felis was chewing on the soft lamb meat. "Before the nightfall," he said with superiority. They would take at least half a night to reach Pegasii and then he would also have to communicate and coordinate with his army to attack together. "Have you checked upon the stables?"

"Good. Now go and find out about the faes over there. Come back as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" The monk nodded. Brix held him by his upper arm and pulled him towards the village which they could see through their place of hiding.

As soon as the monk left, Felis asked another to go to the other side of the kingdom and check on his remaining army. He gave him a scroll. "Hand it over to the commanders, and tell them that the king has asked you to attack now!"

Once the monk left, Felis waited in anticipation.

The first monk came back two hours later and informed, "There are no faes in the village. The villagers are saying that there was only one here and he left this morning for the capital, but there has been a fae killing."

Felis chuckled. This was what he was waiting for. His plans were going to succeed after all. "Great!" he said, rubbing his hand in enthusiasm. "We wait for another hour and then we are going to attack the first village!"

The hour went by very quickly as he regrouped the monks and repeated his strategy to them. "You won't be using dark magic in the first village since there are no faes. Just kill everyone who comes in your way to the next village!"

Felis started on his march to victory and to fulfilling his dream to rule on all of Araniea. They entered the first village and whatever houses they found, they killed the men and women and children. They headed to the next village with their heads floating in the air. The risk that he had taken bore fruits, finally.

As they traveled to the next village, they saw little circles of fireflies dancing at various places.
