90: Book 3 - 2.1 Pareia’s Move

Book 3 - 2.1 Pareia’s Move

The Moving Pareia

Pareia made the Wikaly instantly become surrounded by shock.

Book 3-2.1 Pareia’s Move

Population 550,000. Out of that, the warriors numbered 80,000.

Fourteen oases.

Twenty Greatest Warrior level warriors. Of them, the Glow himself was unrivaled.

The second strongest in the Western Desert. The third strongest in the entire desert.

That was the objective view of the current Pareia.

But

Pareia believed that they were the strongest. There were no other

tribes that had a Glow that nobody could stop, as well as twenty

Greatest Warrior level warriors.

Red Storm.

Eleven of the Red Storm warriors were at the Greatest Warrior level. And that number should only start to grow from here.

Yulian,

although he may not be a match for Venersis, his brigade of warriors,

the Red Storm, could easily overwhelm the Desert Sword.

From a

while ago, Red Storm could not train with Yulian. It was because Chun

Myung Hoon frowned after seeing the Red Storm’s training schedule.

“I will have no face if punks who learned my martial arts are so weak. I will guide you to an acceptable level.”

Yulian was extremely excited at Chun Myung Hoon’s words and Red Storm was full of anticipation.

The

sound of the Red Storm warriors getting beat up as well as their

screams rang through the desert on their first day of training, but

Yulian just smiled, as he had already expected that to happen.

The

Red Storm warriors had no choice but to finally figure out how their

Glow ended up becoming so strong. Did he really learn martial arts

through this extreme amount of attacks?

“You are all weak compared to me.”

At

the single sentence that Yulian threw their way, Red Storm could

neither laugh nor cry. It was just one thing, the realistic feeling that

they were becoming stronger, that made all of them not say a single

complaint as they persevered through Chun Myung Hoon’s training.

In Chun Myung Hoon’s point of view, a fun and fresh toy fell in his lap while he was bored and had nothing to do.

These

days, since Yulian was starting to become more like a Glow and

automatically resonated a sense of respect from the people, it was

difficult to lay a hand on him.

The fact that he was the leader of a tribe came first before being his disciple.

But now he had fifty six pseudo-disciples to play around with. Chun Myung Hoon was excited.

Although

he could not teach them his full martial arts, he was able to show them

the proper way to train, as well as give them individual attention to

improve.

If they continue like this, the Red Storm warriors will

be able to reach Yulian’s current level in about ten years. Chun Myung

Hoon didn’t even think about that as he was so excited.

In his

mind, since the desert would only have a total population of 5,000,000

even once it is unified, it should not affect the balance of power in

the continent too much.

Once Yulian had the entire quicksand river in his hands, he started to discuss how to attack the Wikaly.

“I

am not interested in war strategy, but I do know of a famous saying. If

I know myself well, I will not lose. If I know myself and my enemy, it

will be an overwhelming victory.”

Chun Myung Hoon slipped in a

phrase to Yulian who was worrying about how to attack the Wikaly, and

Yulian followed his master’s words.

The number and quality of the

Wikaly warriors, the Glow and Greatest Warriors, as well as the chiefs’

relationships with each other, and the strength of each individual

oasis. He did not hold back any funds to get information about the

Wikaly.

Pareia was starting to finish all of their preparations to attack the Wikaly tribe.

They

left 30,000 warriors in the Southern Oasis just in case the Shuarei

might attack, and reduced the number of warriors at each of the central

oases and gathered them all in the Northern Oasis.

A total of 20,000 warriors.

There

was a total of 10,000 warriors prepared on the quicksand river side as

well, so the total forces heading to the Wikaly this time was 30,000

warriors.

Once they were gathered, all war preparations were completed.

Since Edwin sent a lot of supplies at the right time, there should really be no problems.

They thought the Wikaly will not see it coming, even in their dreams. For 30,000 warriors to attack them, that is.

That

was because it was impossible to deliver supplies for 30,000 warriors

without enough materials and warriors dedicated to transporting the

items.

This actually might have been the important reason that the desert tribes could never be unified.

They were never able to focus their full attention on one enemy with a large enough force.

But because Pareia had already taken control of the quicksand river, they would have no problems at all with a supply line.

It was because they had changed to a new system where the supply team can immediately turn into the attack team.

Twelfth month of year 255 in the continental calendar.

Yulian finally declared war against the Wikaly and led 30,000 warriors to start the attack.

While

Pareia was gathering intel on Wikaly, the Wikaly was doing the same to

Pareia. That was why they were able to find out about the war about a

month in advance, and use that time to decently prepare.

Once

Pareia finally declared war, the Wikaly was in a state of emergency.

They had expected Pareia to gather the troops to attack the Shuarei.

The two tribes had been bitter enemies for over 100 years. So the fact that they were the opponents was extremely shocking.

The Wikaly hurriedly moved 30,000 of their total 45,000 warriors to the Southern Oasis to prepare to fend Pareia off.

Thinking

about Pareia’s abilities, no matter how many warriors they could

gather, they were confident it would not be over 25,000, and they felt

like they would be able to fend them off with more warriors.

The Glow of the Wikaly tribe, Gomai Mao, also sent a messenger to the Shuarei, asking them to create some tension in the south.

The most southern oasis of the Wikaly, the Oasis of the Rising Moon, was extremely tense right now.

“How did it go? Abham-nim [1].”

Runa Brink urgently asked Abham, and once Abham shook his head, he started to shout.

“Just what is he thinking? That Glow of ours?”

“Shh. Your voice is too loud. We are not the only ones here.”

Abham pressed his lips with a finger and warned Runa. Runa started to speak as if he was frustrated.

“If

we had attacked them last time, it would have been difficult for Pareia

to have an overwhelming victory over the Shuarei like they did, and our

Wikaly would have a better strategy and the upperhand right now. No,

they probably wouldn’t even dream about attacking us right now.”

“Why

are you talking about the past? Plus, we already expected Pareia to

attack us and have made a lot of preparations. Now it is time to show

the things we prepared.”

“There are a lot of problems there as

well. Abham-nim, since you have been preparing for so long, you should

have been named the Commander. But why are they not leaving the defense

of this oasis to the resident Greatest Warrior and to another person?

Especially to Ebinong, who only uses his head for his own benefit?”

Abham bitterly smiled as he answered.

“Ebinong

is greedy, however, he is still the chief of an oasis as well as

someone who managed to reach the level of Greatest Warrior. He has the

leadership abilities as well as experience, and is good at finding

talent, so he should be able to defend well.”

“That is a story

that only works in our Wikaly. The enemy is the Pareia’s Glow, who is

called a War God. It is not someone he can handle.”

“Still, it is not like I can do any better……”

“Abham-nim, why are you saying such weak words again? You promised you would not say such things anymore.”

As Runa Brink shouted, Abham moved his hand from top to bottom as he answered.

“That is enough. It is my bad. Although we have prepared for a long time, I guess I curled up in fear without realizing it.”

“Please

steady your mind. Without my help, Ebinong will never be able to defeat

Pareia. Once Ebinong is defeated, Abham-nim needs to push forward. From

that point, we can show them all the things we prepared one by one.”

Abham had a shocked expression as he answered.

“Runa, are you not planning on assisting Ebinong?”

“You are the one I serve, not Ebinong.”

“This

is an issue that can affect the entire tribe. We cannot let out

personal feelings affect our decisions. Tell Ebinong about everything we

have prepared. It is best to use them to defeat Pareia.”

“Abham-nim,

do you not have any desires? All of our preparations until now were for

Abham-nim. But you plan on just handing it over to him on a platter? If

he wins the war that way, do you think he would yield any of the glory

to Abham-nim?”

Runa Brink shouted in frustration, but Abham did not budge.

“The tribe comes first before my own benefit. Listen to me.”

Runa1

Brink stared at Abham as if he was trying to look through him. He

really was a difficult lord. But this side of Abham was one of the

reasons that Runa could not leave him.

‘No matter what, I want to be with this man. I want to give the desert to this man.’

Abham did not avoid Runa Brink’s gaze, and in the end, Runa was the first to lower his gaze.

“I will listen to Abham-nim’s orders. But since we do not know what may happen, Abham-nim, please keep yourself healthy.”

“Do not worry. I am also a Greatest Warrior. I will not die easily.”

“I

did not say it for you to not die easily. Rather, you cannot be injured

in the upcoming battles. You know that I have yet to show you my

abilities, right?”

“You have overwhelming talent. You just really met the wrong person.”

Abham felt that way at Runa Brink’s words and nodded his head. This subordinate of his that was extremely talented.

“Then I shall go meet up with Ebinong. Since Pareia is at the tip of our nose, he should be at least a bit nervous.”

Runa Brink said goodbye to Abham and quickly ran over to Ebinong’s paoe.
