The morning had come, Zeno ordered his troops to stand up and resume the fight more seriously than before, it was attacking the gates of the capital before heading towards the imperial palace that would become a final fight between the two emperors later on.
Zeno was a little unexpected, that no enemy attacked even at night, even though he had been on guard overnight full of hope that there was an attack that came to be killed immediately. But on the other hand, that's good news, because it doesn't drain so much energy.
Though it has also been assisted by several torches used to illuminate the rest camp of the soldiers, supposedly the enemy will be easier to find his troops.
However, Zeno did not think about it any longer, what was focused on was attacking the capital's gate region which might be only a few miles away.
"Master, I'm reporting." Uron, who was flying in the air with his dragon form, now turned into a human in the air and landed right in front of Zeno.
"Uron, we're finally meeting again." Zeno sighed and hit Uron on the shoulder. Then he asked what Uron had reported. "What's wrong?"
"I and Kirin were at the gate of the capital earlier. And apparently, the rest of the soldiers are waiting there to put up a fight with our main army." Uron tried to explain. As usual, without being ruled though, Kirin and Uron had done a dangerous task, which was to spy on the enemy while doing battle.
"They're waiting for ya." Zeno touched his chin, thinking for a moment about what the enemy was doing. Apparently, he knew exactly why there was no sudden attack last night, as it turned out that the enemies would be waiting for Zeno at the imperial gate.
"And, I have both funny and bad news." Uron again gave the news.
"Say!"
"Their generals sentenced themselves to death for not being able to fight against our fleet of ships and our troops from the eastern region. And the bad news is, the troops gathered in the capital, led by the dark knight the gatekeeper of the capital."
Zeno thought again, then a few seconds later he said, "Who else is that? I don't think I'll underestimate him." Zeno looked at Uron's face again and continued, "Tell Turse, to focus on the capital, or face the northeast."
"Alright, I'm retreating first, but it seems Miss Turse understood already when Kirin told me."
"Wait a minute, how's it going?" Zeno asked before Uron left.
Uron only smiled faintly, then he replied, "Master take it easy, she is not a weak woman. Maybe just his throat was dry from yelling all day."
"Good." Zeno heaved a sigh of relief before continuing his words, "However I hope, melee fighters like Selena, Lois and her army, you and Kirin also intervened towards the capital. And after the capital is destroyed, I want you to call Turse to come down, only Turse understands?"
"All right, sir, I understand." Uron again changed his form into a dragon, then he darted so fast towards the mountains in the south.
Zeno then stretched all his joints, preparing physically and mentally to attack the imperial capital Mare Enbarum. Although he did not know and became curious, what was the figure of the dark knight who became the gatekeeper of the imperial capital. To be sure, when Danze told him to be the leader of the army, then Zeno probably wouldn't underestimate him so easily.
"Life and death for the empire!" Continue his yell while raising his hands high before spurring his horse.
Likewise, the soldiers who now only have more than 550,000 troops, because the rest died during the fight yesterday afternoon here. Although the number decreased, but did not eliminate the spirit of fighters for them, because they believed there was an emperor, while Zeno was also excited because there were troops who helped him.
"Life and death for the empire! For emperor!" The entire army belonging to Zeno shouted out loudly so as to make the surroundings tremble. Maybe not only vibrate because of their sound, but because of the footsteps of so many horses.
…..
"It's gone ya." Turse sighed when he saw a horde of ants, or rather Zeno's army moving and he looked from a distance so that it looked like a horde of ants had already set off towards the capital.
In addition, Turse also understood from Kirin's information that the enemy would be waiting for them from the capital to be led by the dark knight figure of the gatekeeper. And of course, in the northeast direction, Turse saw so clearly the capital. However, he pulled his bowstring, estimating whether his arrows would reach the capital? But he did not measure it by releasing the arrow, it would make a faux pas. He only estimated it and measured the distance using the length of his arrows.
"If I raise it slightly upwards, the distance will reach, but it is very dangerous if the troops belonging to the master really have reached the gate because it takes a long time. Therefore, a few kilos before you arrive, me and my men will let go."
"To be more precise, the position of the bow will be tilted upwards 65⁰ right at my position, while my troops on the slope will be tilted even further down so that it has a very precise accuracy. No, I'm not going to tell them, because it should be as an archer to be aware of it himself." Turse glanced at his archers who were also calculating accuracy, so that his arrows could reach the capital gate.
Even if the distance was very far, the archers would not hesitate either. Perhaps, they will doubt if what they hold is ordinary archery, what makes them confident is because their bow is created from ice elements so that it is connected using orka. Thus, even when releasing arrows, they also release orka.
"Turse, I hope you're ready." Admiral Mahaa came with general Lois, hoping that Turse and his troops could bring a victory.
Realizing that, Turse lowered her bow and slightly smiled faintly, "When I'm ready. But general, I expect you and your army to go down the mountain helping your army." Turse spoke up.
"That's right." Uron suddenly appeared near all of them after a bolt of lightning appeared from above them. Or rather a dragon that left a trail of lightning. "General and his troops, Selena and Kirin, sir hope to descend the mountain to help attack the capital."
"If that is the case, then fine, I will prepare my troops. Admiral, call Selena right now." General Lois nodded with pleasure as what the emperor ordered through Uron.
Simultaneously, Mahaa also went to find Selena to join forces belonging to general Lois to help the main army.
"Uron, how's it going?" Turse asked Uron as everyone left.
Uron smiled faintly and scratched his non-itchy head, ""Miss calm down, he is an emperor. Maybe just his throat was dry from yelling all day."
"Good." Turse smiled and heaved a sigh of relief.
