Zero Familiar: My Harem

Gandalf, Grunt, and Asiya exchanged glances in silence, and slowly backed away.

"How can you? Your Highness Verus, it's impossible, civilians are innocent." Alia rushed forward and grabbed Verus by the collar excitedly.

Verus's eyes were indifferent, allowing Alia to be shaken, but his mind was wandering in the future several hours later.

Haotian, who proposed to mobilize the people in the capital, squinted his eyes, thinking how much of the deaths of those people would fall on himself?Heh, even if they all died because of me, so what.I just want me, Louise and the others to live a good life, and then expand to Louise, Tabasa and their relatives and friends, then everyone in the Magic Academy, my subordinates, and Torristine, I have nothing extra compassion for the people of Albion.

After convincing himself in this way, Haotian also left silently.

The Allied Forces outside the Royal Capital gathered [-] archers, tied them with paper strips, approached [-] meters away from the Royal Capital, and threw them into the Royal Capital.Move [-] meters around the capital, throw it again, move again and again, shoot [-] bows and arrows, densely cover the streets and alleys of the capital.Not only the people can pick it up, but also the defenders of the royal capital can pick it up.

The main idea of ​​the note is this: I am Verus, I am outside the city, and I want to attack the king's city and restore the country.As long as you are the people of the kingdom who respect the Albion family as the royal family, please help me open the city gate so that I can enter the royal city and destroy the enemy army.

No matter how many people in the capital are willing to respond to Verus' call, how many just want to survive the civil war safely, and how many are resentful.After the [-] bows and arrows fell into the capital, there was a tense atmosphere between the defenders and the people. Who knew if the other side would pounce on him.

Then at about four o'clock in the afternoon, a group of no more than twenty people brandished hoes and kitchen knives and rushed to the main gate of the capital, shouting: "For Albion." "Open the city gate to welcome Crown Prince Verus." "For Prince Verus."

The defenders shot arrows to death on the street with no more than [-] people.

The air was silent, like a beginning, and several groups of civilians rushed out, charging towards the city gate with crude weapons.The attack of the defenders involved some civilians who were unwilling to get involved and just observed the situation. Then, their rationality gradually burned, and blood rushed into the hearts of the defenders and the people. Can't contain it anymore.The people in the capital, adults, women, old people, and children, rushed to the city gate with radishes, pot lids, kitchen knives, and hoes. Swordsmen and spearmen silently stabbed civilians, and archers numbly pulled their bowstrings to harvest their lives.

"Kill." "Go."

The noise of shouting and killing resounded from all over the capital. The capital, which was silent in the atmosphere of the war and wanted to die, was involved in the war. The defenders and civilians plundered each other's lives with red eyes.

Inside the palace, House, Mani, and Pace were disturbed by the noise from the outside world, and House summoned soldiers to inquire about the situation.

"The king's capital is in chaos. Verus shot in countless notes, and now the civilians are attacking the city gate like crazy. The city gate, the city gate may not be able to bear it, my lord. My lord, hurry up and withdraw."

"Shut up, don't disturb the morale of the army." The House family blushed and panted heavily.

"Something went wrong, let's go out and have a look." House said like two companions.

The three walked out of the palace and looked down from the highest palace in the palace. There were shouts of killing coming from all directions in the palace. There was a fire, and no one went to put out the fire. Tens of thousands of defenders and people gathered at the city gate. There was rain of bows and arrows, forest of knives and guns. I don't know how many people died. The original white was no longer visible at the gate of the city, but was infected by black and red.

"Verus, how dare you!!" House was furious.

"This is too bad, the capital, the capital may not be able to hold on." Mani said in a panic.

"House, tell me, what are we going to do? What else can we do?"

House held his breath and squeezed out a voice: "Let's go!"

"Go? Where are you going? Albion is in the place of Verus, and our territory will never stop him."

"After leaving most of the army behind, leave a thousand troops to escort us back to our respective territories, take away the wealth and technology accumulated for generations, and go to the westernmost port of my House family's territory. Let's go, Goliath."

House looked at the city gate with angry eyes, as if he could see Verus outside the capital.

"Since he refuses to let us go, I'll leave an empty shell and let him rule. Come on, set fire to me, and burn this royal capital for me." House said coldly.

"Yes, my lord."

The House soldiers withdrew, left the palace and set fire to it.

Mani and Pace looked at each other, but they had no choice but to follow the House family all the way to Hei.The three of them led their family members and three or four hundred soldiers each to protect them and quietly left from the back door of the royal city, heading for their respective territories.

There was a lot of shouting and killing in the capital, which lasted for three hours. From afternoon to night, half of the sky reflected by the fire was red.The main gate of the capital finally fell to the ground with a "boom".

"The whole army is there, rush with me." Verus shouted loudly, taking the lead and leading the coalition forces into the city gate.

The defenders who were massacring the civilians hastily turned to face the battle with countless casualties, and the tens of thousands of civilians gathered at the city gate also accidentally injured countless people during the advance of the coalition forces.Verus led [-] elite soldiers and rushed towards the palace from the city gate along the main road.

The original exquisite and gorgeous palace has been shrouded in flames, and the scene of hell is seen along the way. Soldiers, civilians, old and weak women are all fighting and fighting each other.

Verus rushed outside the capital, and the blazing fire forced him to stop.There was a sea of ​​flames in the palace, could there be someone there? "House, Mani, Pace, where are you? Get out of here." Verus swung his long sword angrily into the void, unable to vent his anger.

The battle in the capital continued until dawn, and the flames gradually extinguished after devouring most of the combustibles.Ruins remained in the city, and the red blood and black traces of fire engulfed the city.Although there are no statistics yet, the defenders died in battle [-] to [-], the coalition forces died in battle about [-], and the civilians in the city died [-] to [-].

The people of the royal capital who lived until dawn looked at the corpses all over the place in a daze, the houses that had become ruins, and the relatives of the corpses, knelt down and cried unbearably, covering their faces.The sound of crying is contagious. Survivors all over the capital are crying, and the crying can be heard far away, and can be heard for kilometers around the entire capital.

In the palace where only the stone frame was left after the fire, Verus, Haotian, Grunt, father and daughter, and Gandalf all had ugly faces.Alia pointed at Verus and Haotian angrily and said, "You two demons."

Haotian wanted to say that he was not the one who let the fire go, but amidst the grief of the whole city, he kept silent.

The silence lasted for five minutes, but Haotian spoke first.

"Now that the capital has been captured, House and others are nowhere to be found. We can order other minor nobles to send troops and food to help rebuild the capital. There is also the [-] troops of the Meggen family that can threaten us, so we must be more vigilant."

"Understood." Verus nodded silently.

"When the king's capital is rebuilt, Verus, you can become king. I'll come back to watch the ceremony then."

"Well, I'm waiting for you."

"Okay, then I'll go. I'll lend you Torristine's army, but I'll take back those magicians. Goodbye, Verus, Gandalf, and Grund."

"You, are you leaving?" Alia opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"I promised to help Verus restore the country. Now that the overall situation has been settled, it is difficult for the remaining Magen family to turn around. I am relieved, and I can go back naturally." Haotian said calmly.

"You, you, what did you do to Albion, how could you just walk away?" Alia was angry, wronged, and dissatisfied.

"Those are all means of war. As for the casualties, they are just an unavoidable price. If you are in command, perhaps an additional [-] people will die, and we may not necessarily win?"

"You bastard, you look down on people too much. I, I must, maybe I can find a better way?"

"Perhaps, but it's the quickest and best thing I can think of."
