Elves Have Migrated to My Planter

Episode 282-The Great War (2)

‘The person who killed the hero was Orca, the sword saint.’

It was a shocking truth. It was something Serenian, who knew nothing about heroes, could not possibly understand.

“At this point, I don’t think there’s anything strange about it. “If he wasn’t that crazy, he wouldn’t have done something like this.”

The first people Serenian delivered this news to were the heads of each faction, including Aaron, the leader of the dwarves. Of course, they were all very surprised and agitated.

In the meantime, people like Kara who had seen the warrior before were even more surprised. Everyone did not deny the fact that Orca was a crazy person, but they couldn’t believe it when they heard that he had betrayed the hero.

“But this is what God himself said.”

“Well, then that person, the Sword Saint, is really a hero!”

However, it was impossible not to believe it when Serenian said that this truth was revealed directly by the god who bestowed grace on them.

Until now, the being who has been watching them has never once told a lie. Since such a being came forward and revealed the truth, the people living here in Eden never had any doubts.

“I am worried about how to deal with this truth. “It is a fatal weakness, but it is clear that they will incite that this truth is a lie.”

Serenian sighed. There is only one word of God that proves the truth. The problem is that God’s words may be true for those who believe in and follow God, but they do not serve as evidence for those who do not believe.

“In my view, if this truth is revealed too hastily, it could become a means to help the enemies unite. “It would be better to bury it for a little while and then release it when they start to fall apart due to internal strife.”

At that time, Tina, the elder elf who was quietly listening to the story, cautiously opened her mouth. Everyone flinched at those words. Because it is not logically wrong.

Even if you can’t put a scratch on a solid opponent, you can put a wedge in a situation that is already damaged and collapsing.

“If we ignore it like that, what remains is ultimately the evil trick of those guys who joined hands with the forces of the demon world.”

Serenian nodded his head, acknowledging Tina’s words. Thanks to this, the topic changed slightly. A war to be fought for supremacy of the continent. Even Orca and the Empire have already declared war.

Although it was meant as an exploration, it was the enemies who sent troops first, opening the gate to the territory of Eden. And those enemies were sent by those who had already joined hands with Orca.

“It would have been nice if we had more time, but it doesn’t matter. “The enemy already sees us as their enemy, so we won’t be harmed either.”

When the story of war came up, Serenian’s eyes sparkled. He was carrying and stockpiling ever more supplies, something he had been determined to do for quite some time.

“This is the last supply, Rondel.”

“It must be very difficult because you are so busy.”

“Yes, but we still have to hurry.”

The reason everyone in the alliance, including Serenian, the head of Eden, is steadily preparing for war is because they have a lot of faith in them.

Outside the forest boundary. Rondel, who was leading the elf army in the city built in the Kingdom of Kamihi, greeted those who were putting down the supplies they had brought. Those who received greetings said that there was still a lot of work left to do and got on board again.

‘It’s fast. ‘This amount of supplies in such a quick time.’

Rondel sighed and watched them leave in a hurry. He wasn’t riding a fairy ant. What they were riding was a large train running on tracks laid on the ground.

The cargo pulled by the train could provide almost all the support the city could muster. It didn’t even stop there, but continued running, crossing the homelands of all the powers that had formed an alliance under the name of the Federation.

Of course, since we are only expanding one route, it is still insufficient to the extent that several more routes need to be laid in the future, but the necessity has already been well proven.

“Some people say it is a miracle. “The Federation’s farmland is being maximized with fertilizers brought in from the Great Forest, and dwarven weapons being transported through Eden are spreading everywhere at a tremendous speed. It is said that it will be a revolution like never before.”

“I didn’t understand what was being said at first, but now I understand. “What an incredible ability it is to be able to move a lot of necessary items quickly.”

Rondel agreed with his colleague’s words. What they have done so far is not just one or two things, but they are experiencing first-hand how much of a change it is bringing about by expanding the tracks and starting to send trains to their allies.

‘The question is whether we can protect this. Don’t the enemies know too? ‘These tracks are like our lifelines.’

He went from being a hunter in a small elf village to a warrior of Eden fighting against demonic beasts to becoming a general leading an army ranging from thousands to tens of thousands. He was responsible for defending this city, so one thing he was worried about. The goal was to protect these tracks, which were sure to be targets of the enemy.

“We have already started moving. “If you want to come forward, you had better come forward.”

“…Okay. “You know that.”

Through Eden, the Federation is openly preparing for war. Of course, Orca, who holds the power of the empire, was already on the move.

After receiving confirmation from Rudga, his ally in the demon world, he finally made a decision. He announced that he would unleash all the power he had accumulated so far and strike down all forces opposing him.

“Let’s not talk in circles. If you do a good job, you will be rewarded accordingly. Loot or whatever. Is there any reason to allow subversive elements that disturb true peace any longer? “They are making a plan, saying they will resist until the end, so it would be better to get things done before we waste more time.”

Orca borrowed the name of the emperor, who had no power, at will and declared it openly in front of the gathered powerful people of the empire. Of course, no one dared to open their mouth. Those who opposed him were indiscriminately purged.

Furthermore, he even promised compensation, so those in power in the empire who had promised to follow him had no reason to oppose his opinion and suffer losses.

‘True peace. ‘Is that really possible?’

In fact, no one present was skeptical about the true peace he was calling for as a cause. Even if the empire controls the entire continent, it does not mean that all conflicts will disappear.

Not only do they become different gangs and fight, but as long as they each have different desires, the fighting will never end. That was the way of the world.

‘Do you believe that you can suppress such an obvious fact?’

Renia, the saint of the church who was present, bit her lip as she looked at Orca, who was reigning as an iron-blooded dictator.

Sangsang, different dreams, they say they are gathered for one order, but in reality, everyone has their own thoughts. But in the meantime, only Orca seemed to believe that his thoughts were correct.

“Why, do you have something to say?”

In the end, she searched for Orca separately when everyone else was gone to find out.

“It is impossible to control everyone who has different wants and ways of living. It is possible to force someone to comply, but that is only possible when a strong person like you is in charge.”

“It’s a basic story. “It’s not wrong.”

“If you dream of a truly unified empire, think again about governing methods other than coercive methods…”

“It’s the same as what the warrior said. “I lost the courage to move forward amidst the excuse of considering reality.”

Orca did not deny her words. Instead, he just chuckled as if he had already heard this. In fact, Renia’s eyes widened in surprise when the hero was mentioned.

“For this kind of rule to take place, there would have to be a god that literally everyone believes in and follows.”

“Do you also think that it is that Serenian elf and not me? The half-god they believe in and follow can never rule this huge land. What on earth is that guy? “A god who didn’t even appear when we were going through a terrible war and making countless sacrifices?”

He growled, his face hardening. Lenia, overwhelmed by the momentum, could only move her mouth.

“Of course, let me admit that a central point is needed.”

“Then…”

“I will do it. Like now. I don’t care how others view me. I am willing to reign and lead the empire properly. “I planned to do that from the beginning.”

He grinned and placed his hand on his chest. He didn’t trust anyone else. No matter how clean a person may be, he would rather do everything on his own since he could never know when and in what way he might become distorted and polluted.

‘It was all sincere. Really.’

Lenia flinched at her unwavering confidence.

Unify the world into one and control it perfectly with one order. That is true peace and a path for everyone to progress.

He firmly believed in it.

“Apart from whether your choice will always be correct, you are only a human being. He is called the strongest swordsman now, but what will he do 100 or 200 years from now? “A future without you!”

“…I’ve thought about that too. Of course, that’s none of your business. “Don’t waste your energy needlessly like this and go make some more recovery potions.”

She shouted, but Orca didn’t answer anymore.

And less than a day after he returned, the empire began sending troops to all the powers that did not bow down to them.
