Warlock of War: My Ares System

What a shit show today was…

…

The next day, a strange pressure hung on my shoulders, as if a godly being was watching me with intent pupils.

It wasn't just one gaze but seemingly a thousand as I went about my day.

"Anyone else feel tense in the neck?" I asked everybody during breakfast, and it seemed everybody else had the same complaint.

Even the maids and butlers who didn't take the pill, so it must've been something else weighing down on us.

By the end of the day, I was so exhausted that I just slumped down onto my bed and curled up into a ball, hoping the pressure would be gone by tomorrow.

And so, it was, and for the next few days, it had disappeared until the day of the meeting when the mages of the world tower had finally arrived.

"Greetings. This humble knight's name is Owen, and this is my army,"

"Greetings. This humble knight's name is Albus, and this is my army,"

"Greetings. This humble knight's name is Astoria, and this is my army,"

"Greetings. This humble knight's name is Brienne, and this is my army,"

They all seemed like they were reading off a script as they introduced themselves, but I could care less about the formalities, and what I really wanted to know was why they were magic weaponsmen and women.

"You're all magic swordsman… how intriguing," Luna muttered before Bella took them all into the main hall, where a single guard followed them.

Owen, a tall young man with short blond hair, porcelain white skin, and a lean and muscular body, was dressed in a battle suit-like uniform, which was not only for formalities but also for fighting.

In fact, all of them were wearing this same decorated uniform, even the women who didn't seem to mind it.

Albus, a tall young man with stubby black hair, milk chocolate skin, and a lean and muscular body, seemed the most serious out of all of them.

He seemed to have the most charisma in order to draw people in when he was talking.

Next, there was Astoria, who was a tall young woman with long black hair, beautiful white skin, and a lean and muscular body no less powerful than any of her comrades.

She was also very serious and looked like she could kill all of us with just a single glare.

And finally, there was Brienne, a tall young woman with short black hair, smooth tan skin, and a lean and muscular body, just a bit more toned than Astoria.

She might've been a bit bigger compared to Astoria, but Astoria was still just as strong.

As we all sat around the long table inside the hall of the Wony household, the air was so thick that you could hear the surrounding servants choking on the atmosphere.

"Everybody leave," Bella waved her hand, and the servants all cleared out of the room without a hint of hesitation.

"So, what is your plan?" Owen asked, leaning forward intently as he attempted to interrogate Bella about her plan, but little did he know, I was the one who formulated each and every little thing.

"Don't ask me," Bella suddenly shifted her eyes towards me, "Ask him."

"Don't you think as the next head of the Wony family, you should be just a bit more confident in your ability to plan?" Brienne smirked, and all of us, when dead serious as the seemingly opposing side in front of us, glared back.

"If you want to go, we can go now. Just say the word, and we can go at each other's throats," Cy muttered through gritted teeth.

"[Calm Down]," I ordered everybody present at the table, and as my voice went raspy, I took a swig of some medicine in a bottle.

The four commanders in front of us looked at me with suspicious eyes as if they had already thought of me as an enemy, but this only made me smile more as I now knew these guys were complete professionals.

"Seems that old man didn't cop out on givin' us his best produce," I chuckled with a string of coughs following after due to my sore throat.

"*sigh*... Alright, since Orion is now out of commission. I'll explain everything…." Luna started, but then I interrupted her.

"Nah, I'm good,"

"Are you sure? Your throat isn't hurting?"

"I told you I'm fine… Anyway, our first target will be the Boisgeze family. They've seemed a bit desperate lately, and after a bit of digging with some personal servants, it seems they're soon going to be devoured by the other families,"

"They're all folding into one?" Albus asked, his eyes widening as the question escaped from his throat.

"You could say that, but I'm sure once it reaches only two more families, an all-out war will break out… and that's what we're going to take advantage of. We'll accelerate this process by weakening the other families more, forcing them to cling to the larger ones for survival… but we won't be holding back. It would be better if we could take them out,"

"Do the other families see you as a threat? Because if they do, this plan won't work out… our best bet would be to try and drag this out instead of eliminating the families easily," Astoria suggested.

"No, I don't have the patience for that, especially when we have the opportunity to speed this shit up… So basically, we'll be using my connections to wreak havoc from the insides. All of them trust me so much they might as well be giving up their lives to me…."

"And how do you know that won't change?" Bella asked.

"Because I already made them so vulnerable that just a touch of Luna's magic was able to basically make them our slave… though this wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for us classing up,"

"You're pretty good at planning, but how are you at fighting. Don't think we'll be your underlings just because the tower master sent us here,"
