Chapter 1944: Father Will Make The Roast Goose For You

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the dark night.

At the Roth Empire’s northwestern borders, tens of thousands of cavalry troops gathered.

Recently, the attacks from the orcs had lessened, but the cavalry troops sent from the other regions were gradually increasing.

The experienced soldiers who had stayed at the borders for some time knew the situation at the northwestern border was going to change soon.

The various military zones had been rotating their troops at the northwestern military zone to brush up their combat power through actual combat with the orcs. They had maintained the status quo of an equal number of troops.

However, recently, the elites from the other military zones had been continuously posted at the northwestern military zone, yet the original troops stationed there were not withdrawn. This couldn’t help but give people ideas.

The orcs had been invading the Roth Empire’s borders in the past few years. Many villages were ravaged, and after years of combat, there had been casualties on both sides. The hatred was intense, and the soldiers among the troops didn’t mind charging into the orcs’ tribes for revenge if they ever had the opportunity.

All they needed now was an order from Rodu, and they would climb over the mountains in front of them, and charge into the Twilight Forest, making those fertile lands and vast forest part of the Roth Empire’s territory.

***

At the southern border of the Roth Empire, the numbers of troops had been gradually increasing too.

Although the official orders were not issued yet, many military leaders already knew that the Roth Empire would most probably enter war on all fronts soon, putting the Roth Empire’s flags on further lands.

The hearts of the empire’s soldiers had been inflating like their power in the past few years.

The city in the south that was comparable to Rodu was nothing in their eyes.

***

Vic Mountain. The goblins had entered into a state of war mobilization.

A goblin elder issued the orders. “Evacuate all the important facilities and people into the underground cavern, and monitor the movements of the Roth Empire closely. If a large army appears, do not engage them directly. Fight and retreat according to the underground cavern’s state. Make sure that they don’t invade too quickly, and preserve our potential as much as we can and lower our numbers of casualties at the same time!”

***

The Issen Castle’s drawbridge was pulled up slowly, cutting off the castle’s contact with the outside world completely.

The other races in the castle were all chased out a few days ago, and all the exits were sealed and guarded by troops.

***

Overnight, the situation on the Norland Continent intensified.

All the races entered into combat readiness. Before the results of the peace meeting were known, these measures would not change.

Irina, who had returned to the restaurant, sipped a mouthful of red wine, with Mag sitting across from her, and told him, “This is much smoother than I imagined.”

“Peace is in alliance with the interests of the majority of the races. This outcome is, in fact, expected,” Mag said with a smile.

“Then, do you think Andre will still come tomorrow? Or perhaps he will start the war in advance?” Irina asked.

“If Andre starts the war in advance, regardless whether he attacks the west, and invades the Twilight Forest, or he attacks the east, and invades the Wind Forest, given the Roth Empire’s current power, he can emerge successful within a short time,” Mag said with a serious expression. “Furthermore, once the occupation of those lands becomes a fact, and the Roth Empire ceases to attack the other races, the races whose lands are occupied will have a hard time asking other races to help them liberate their occupied lands.”

“The orcs have already joined the peace alliance.” Irina furrowed her brows.

Mag shook his head. “Interests and benefits have always been the priority behind the races’ interactions. We will seek justice for Connie, but I’m afraid that even the giant dragons will not engage the Roth Empire directly on behalf of the orcs.

“The objective behind setting up this alliance is more of achieving a deterrent effect.

“However, if the orcs were really invaded, as long as they can withstand the first round of attacks, and gain some time for the allied forces, I believe the other races will be willing to send troops to help their ally. This is more beneficial to all the races’ interests.”

Irina nodded thoughtfully. It was already difficult for the people of the same race to give their all to help you, so it was indeed too much to hope that the other races would defend you.

“Since this is the case, should we give the orcs some assistance in advance?” Irina asked again.

“Given my understanding of Andre, he won’t dispatch troops without a just cause.” Mag shook his head and smiled. “Once he disregards the peace treaty, and attacks the orcs or elves, it’s equivalent to him standing on the opposite side of the peace alliance, or even on the opposite side of all the races. This will give all the races a reason to attack him.

“Even if he can conquer the Twilight Forest and the Wind Forest within a short time, doing so will bring upon the combined suppression of all the races, and might even cause the Roth Empire to be encircled and annihilated.”

“Do you think he will give up on his ambition of conquering the other races because of the formation of the peace alliance?”

“Obviously, he isn’t such a person. Therefore, I am very curious about how he will react to accomplish his ambition.” Mag shook his head gently.

“Seems like the peace meeting tomorrow will be very interesting.” A smile curled up Irina’s lips.

“Father, you guys are finally back!” Amy ran downstairs, and looked at the two people drinking red wine together. She placed her hands on her hips, pouted her lips, and angrily said, “Have you guys forgotten about us?”

Annie came downstairs with Ugly Duckling in her arms, and looked at Mag and Irina with a smile.

“Oh dear, I forgot that my two lovelies haven’t had their meal yet. Tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll make it for you right now.” Mag looked at the two little ones and slapped his head. There were so many matters today that he forgot about Amy and Annie.

“Speaking of which, we haven’t had our dinner, either.” Irina looked at him too.

“That’s just nice. Let’s have a good meal together.” Mag pinched Amy’s face smilingly. “Tomorrow, Father will make the roast goose for you.”

“Roast goose! Really?” Amy’s eyes glowed instantly. She gulped before turning back to look at Ugly Duckling with an increasingly bright smile. “You have got wings.”

“Meow, meow???”

Ugly Duckling called out twice. I am not a real cat, but you are a real dog…

“Annie, what do you want to eat?” Mag asked Annie again.

Annie patted Ugly Duckling’s head.

“You want to eat roast goose too?” Mag flicked a glance at Ugly Duckling.

“Meow, meow???”

Ugly Duckling’s orange fur bristled immediately.

Mag went into the kitchen, and soon made a table full of dishes.

After the last dish of spicy crayfish was served, all of them started eating.

Munching on the crayfish that Mag peeled for her, Amy asked, “Father, will the restaurant open tomorrow?”

“Perhaps we need to close for one more day to figure out how to make the roast goose,” Mag answered with a smile. The peace meeting will be held tomorrow afternoon. As an important representative, of course he had to attend.

With the roast goose, he naturally wasn’t afraid that the customers would scold him afterwards.

“Alright, alright. I love roast goose the most.” Amy nodded. She always refused to move her feet every time they walked by the roast goose restaurant.. Although the roast duck that her father made was also very delicious, she still wanted to know what a real roast goose tasted like.
