      AWDC Chapter 73

      AWDC Chapter 73 Cover
      by Volare "Don't run! Hold your ground!" Samuel desperately shouted, trying to rally the fleeing soldiers. But no matter how hoarse his voice became, no one answered his cries. Even if they didn't know what had happened up ahead, the loud noise was enough to shatter their will to fight. That shocking sound was the sound of demons possessing their allied soldiers. For those who were simple farmers with only naive faith, the mere thought of demons made their legs tremble. At the first explosion, they…

      AWDC Chapter 72 Cover
      by Volare ## Chapter 72: The Devastation of Battle With the advance trumpets blaring, explosives detonated at the feet of the leading soldiers of the Bawa Roma army as they began to run. A large hole had been blasted where the enemy general had been moments before, with limbs, hands, feet, and heads of men and horses scattered around it. The vanguard of the Bawa Roma army, not understanding what had happened, simply stopped in their tracks, stunned. What on earth was going on? Every soldier was…

      AWDC Chapter 71 Cover
      by Volare Chapter 71: Battle on the Shores of Lake Milona The narrowest point between the Mulan River and Lake Milona was no more than 500 meters. I had prepared three contraptions there. One was a fence with a unit of archers behind it. The bows were steel crossbows. I taught Ladapole the principles, showed him the general drawings of the crossbows, and had him make them. We had test-fired these repeatedly in the desert. With ordinary bows held by the enemy soldiers, the force would dissipate after 100…

      AWDC Chapter 70 Cover
      by Volare Chapter 70: Before the Decisive Battle As largely expected, the Bawa Roma religion's southward advance began. Both the Midland family in the east and the Gregg family in the west possessed formidable retinues. However, both dukes judged that they couldn't recklessly march on the capital, given the momentum of the Bawa Roma army. Nevertheless, both families had prepared enough forces to meet the Bawa Roma army if they entered their respective territories. "If they come to me, I'll crush those…

      AWDC Chapter 69 Cover
      by Volare Chapter 69: Southern Invasion The meeting with Duke Gregg gave me a different perspective. I had been belittling myself as a poor, rural noble, but others saw the Robertson family differently. Those with political savvy viewed the Robertson family as already having joined the ranks of the great nobles. Perhaps I was being too self-deprecating. Not being assertive when I should be would only attract unnecessary trouble. Therefore, I decided to proceed with Ricardo's engagement to Duke Gregg's youngest…

      by Volare Chapter 68: Ricardo's Engagement Even before Waomou declared himself king, various movements were already happening in Toriholi Village. One was the increasing influx of farmers into Toriholi Village. "If you go to Toriholi Village, you can cultivate fields with peace of mind," they said, and the number of people settling in the village was rapidly increasing. The population of Toriholi Village exceeded 20,000 in one fell swoop. Seeing this trend, I changed the administrative divisions of…
