Warlock of War: My Ares System

"So we found an abandoned tiger cub… interesting,"

It was obvious she had some type of ice-related magic or skills as the temperature dropping around her looked to be her doing.

Also, from what I could tell, the scars on her body meant she was most likely a servant or possibly a slave.

I'm sure she's been trained to withstand all types of torture, so there is nothing we can really do to her now besides try and break down her mental walls.

A child's mind is weak, and if we infiltrate it, then I'm confident we'll be able to get the information we want.

"You're too cruel," I heard Aisa mutter as she saw my little smile.

"Don't worry. I won't torture her,"

"That's not what I was talking about… *sigh*... Try not to hurt her too much. You may be able to break down her mental walls, but breaking them down in the opposite way will leave her with mental scars for life,"

Aisa was already locked on with my thought process, so I just sighed.

…

A few days later, after a restful break, I saw that icy kid again, and we were designated her caretakers for the time being as the army was now setting off again to storm the camp which we were observing for the best attack point.

These past few days were tense and stressful as if we couldn't break through now, then this battle would last even longer, something we all don't want to happen.

We gathered up about three thousand men with us, of course sitting out… but to be honest, I feel like the commander is more than enough to take on the entire base camp.

He is so unbelievably strong that I was wondering why he was a servant for the Wony family.

"To repay a debt. I'm only this strong because I was able to survive and live… if the Wony head didn't save me that one fateful day I'm sure I wouldn't have been here right now,"

After processing the information, I nodded and returned back to my tent, where I found my friends sitting around a campfire.

"Winter is coming," I muttered as the gray clouds just wouldn't leave us alone.

"Orionnnnn! She won't talk to meeeee!" I heard Aisa cry out from the log she was sitting on, and as she went to go punch me, I hid behind a nearby soldier.

BAM

The soldier was knocked out from the punch to the liver, so we dragged her away and just hid her in the gathered army.

All of them were extremely nervous and tense as they left, but with a few encouraging speeches from the commander and the lieutenants, everybody was bursting with adrenaline.

"Oh man, that makes me want to fight," I muttered before sitting down on one of the open logs.

"Alright, kid, if you won't speak up, we'll just kill you," Bella said with a snarky grin that only made the little girl annoyed.

"Nice try," Findir chuckled as he tried to bribe her with some sweet treats.

Surprisingly, she was a bit interested in these, and after about an hour, after everybody had left, she finally took one.

Her face glowed up with excitement as the sweetness had a vice claw on her taste buds.

"Is it good?" Aisa asked with a warm smile, petting the little girl's head as if she was a dog or some type of pet.

"Mhm," The little girl muttered with a slight blush of embarrassment.

"Okay, nice to see she's warming up. I'll be back after a minute walk," I said, and the squinted look that Bella gave me… was a bit annoying.

…

"Hmmm… So the plan was this… Yeah, they would've lost if we didn't step in. I guess this army was more of a sacrificial pawn that would dwindle the thousands of soldiers on the opposing side," I muttered with a content smile.

The Wony head was pretty damn good at war strategies, and even though he probably got help from an actual strategist, even coming up with a sliver of this plan was impressive.

"I knew it… You damn skunk," I heard a familiar voice say from outside the tent.

Bella soon walked into me, shuffling through all the documents with all the knights guarding this place unconscious around me.

"Why are you sniffing around like this? There isn't even much valuable information…." She said, but I didn't explain to her my plan.

"My bad… I'll take my leave,"

After neatly tidying up and placing the papers back where they belonged, I slipped off the gloves I had borrowed from one of the knights and tossed them back to him.

"*sigh*... What should we do with the kid? It looks like she's part of a large family from another city over,"

"If she is… then we can use her. She'll most likely want revenge once she realizes she was sold off or abandoned… that's basically a free ticket to some destruction and another warzone," I chuckled as we both returned to the campfire.

"Can't we relax a bit? Also, I feel like she should have a normal life. A life of revenge isn't fun… I realized that while on my path to trying to redeem myself… Do you know how badly I wanted to kill you while I was tortured as punishment?"

"You did that to yourself… what can I say?"

"That means some of that anger is still lingering. It hasn't been long since then, and if I could, I could kill you right now,"

"Huh? You? Kill me? Kill me? Did I hear that right?"

Bella had a vein popping out of her forehead but stored the anger back down inside her core as we arrived back at the campfire.

The little girl who we were taking care of had a massive smile on her face as Findir and Aisa both teased her with sweet treats.

Candy, dry-ass cookies, dry-ass brownies, and more.

"She's so cuteeeeeee!" Aisa exclaimed before bringing the little girl in for a suffocating hug.
