"It''s a good meal before a battle!" The dwarves were more than happy to help eat the heavy fanged boars that the party had hunted. Alice was taking great pride in the food since she had been able to face them down without fear.


    The constant training she had done against Onyx who wasrger than her was one main reason that she didn''t find herself afraid when she faced the pack of heavy fanged boars. Onyx had some terrifying skills along with arger size than expected. Other than that, Alice had to battle for control over the light elemental mana with him. It was a physical and mental strain that she had to learn tobat. Therefore, when she had gotten in to the flow of battle against the boars she felt that they were nothing inparison.


    On top of all that, she had the fact that she was able to train against Midnight. For anyone, a dragon was one of the existences in the world considered the most fearsome. Just a roar alone was enough to cause many to fall in fear. Having fire breathed at her should have made Alice fall to her knees defeated, but after multiple times she had managed to stand against it and create light elemental shields from the light in the air. How could a mere boar stop her?


    "You were moving like a pro! I thought that they might catch up to you before Su and I joined up but I was wrong. That was great!" Remey had been more than impressed by the way Alice had remembered to keep moving while singing. She had used the first song to injure most of them while wlessly switching to the next song. This flow set the pace for a battle and was very important to Remey.


    Since Remey had a very up close and personal fighting style, it was extremely important to her that she set the pace. That way she would be able to control the potential damage she took while also dealing heavy damage to weak points. This was an aspect of a brawler that many people didn''t reference. The brawlers or rted systems often had very advanced movement skills that came with whatever kind of fighting they did.


    "I''m just d that was thest of those boars. We managed to keep all the fangs and the furs but all that meat that we roasted seems to have been passed out." Besides the portion that the party ate, they had no intention of storing it all away. When Walker began to cook, Midnight was the first to volunteer to share it which was a surprise. Unfortunately, it was proven that she was attempting to make some trades and returned with bred and even some honey that another dwarf had on hand for the journey. She had been sneaky and managed to get herself a whole meal.


    ? "We should be getting close about now, right?" Su stopped them and pointed in to the distance where a small camp had already been made by scouts sent ahead.


    "You are right. Those are the golems sent ahead. I can already see the table set up with maps or whatever it is." Gil could see that there were many elite guards and even two familiar figures at the table ahead. He tried to use his sight to the peak but found that he could only guess as to what was on the table. It was something he wished he could improve right away. An archer''s keen vision was a valuable trait.


    Thest bot of the journey brought them to where the main groups in charge of the split armies were. "Just as nned. The remainder of our army arrived. The other two are just beginning to set up camp to rush in to the nest." The king of the deep caves had brought over the other two dwarven kings. They normally would have stayed in the city but this was a big problem for the dwarves. They had trusted advisors that could take over for them in dire circumstances.


    "It''s good to see you all together again. I wish it was under better circumstances." Walker made sure to let them know that he was d to see all three kings.


    "These are good circumstances. We are going to test out the new golems made using true spirit forging techniques." The king of the surface was very focused on the power behind the army. This was his main position in the kingdom after all and he would be sure to follow it properly.


    "We will make a killing once we harvest these ants. The people won''t go hungry for years toe!" The king of the middle was having a great time seeing the future that these ants could bring. They would be agreat source of gold for their kingdom which meant they could build bigger and better.


    "You two know what the issues are with this. We could lose mines, caves, and lives if we don''t handle these three colonies. Keep that in mind will you?" The king of the deep caves arrived back and mmed his foot to the ground. The other two seemed to flinch. Walker wasn''t sure why but the other two kings clearly recognized the king of the deep caves as the one in charge. Part of Walker knew it came from the serious work from years in the mines, the king of the deep caves was clearly the strongest. Yet the tone was where the true strength was. It was hard and left no room to argue. It was a tone that came from many years of hard work and determination. "Now that you are here I expect that you will be joining me and my elites when we go to y the queen?"
