Chapter 537 Then what?
Rain sent the orders to all of the squads on the coast to retreat and not engage in combat if they saw the enemies in the next few days. At the same, the whole kingdom got tense with the possibility of another war approaching on their doorsteps...
Rain, Branden, and Esmeralda didn't try to hide the situation from the public eyes; they knew that they would be attacked from three sides, and actually, some people didn't believe that at all... they heard that Rain and his group had repelled the beast people in the last year and they didn't think that they would come again to try to topple the human kingdom.
Thanks to that, it didn't take long for them to hear people abandoning their homes and trying to move away from towns and cities... they began to hide in villages, thinking that they would be safe there since the fighting groups were only being raised in large places like towns and cities... they had no idea that the enemies wouldn't go that far unless they truly wanted to wipe out the human kingdom from the world.
It was unlikely that they would be extinct, but it was clear that the humans wouldn't have a place to call theirs anymore, and even though they were weak and had their lands, they probably wouldn't be recognized as one of the inhabitants of that world anymore...
Three days after the whole kingdom began to prepare for war, Rain saw one of his golems coming from the south and delivered a message to them early in the morning... there have been movements on the coasts of large groups of people landing... The warriors are keeping their distance and will send more reports as soon as they see anything.
"It is time," Rain said when he finished reading the report. "We will have to start an evacuation of the people on this side of the country since we don't have any fortifications that we can use. Can you three help them move to the capital?"
"Leave it to us," Dana declared.
"Listen up, Men," Rain said as he approached his soldiers and looked at them in the eye. "I will be honest with you all. I am sick and tired."
Several of the warriors blinked in confusion... the war was just about to start... one that couldn't be compared to the conflicts of the last few decades, and Rain was saying that he was sick and tired... That couldn't have been the worst start for them.
"I am sick and tired of people that don't want to let me live my life..." Rain added. "I like training, I like getting stronger, and as much I dislike being around people covered in sweat like you are when you are done training, I like to help you all get stronger and reach your true potential.
I don't know about you guys, but it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman; every single day, you have to strive to improve yourself... I have seen you guys improve yourselves daily for half a year, and that is why I am proud that I am going to fight alongside you from now on."
Rain's stirring words resonated deeply within all the soldiers, infusing them with a potent surge of motivation and energy. A palpable wave of excitement rippled through their ranks, and they could feel their bodies growing warm as a fiery determination welled up from within.
The aura of unity and shared purpose filled the air, binding them together in a collective resolve. Rain's powerful speech made them believe that nothing in the world could stand in their way, and they stood ready to face any challenge that lay ahead with unwavering courage and focus.
"It will be my honor to fight alongside all of you, and we are going to fight for our people, for our friends, and for our families. We are going to become much stronger after this... and then what?" Rain asked.
Everyone fell silent after hearing that question...
