As soon as the work was done, Felis went back to the monastery along with Kaitos and others. And now he had to wait. He was going to wait for one full day and then attack the Kingdom of Pegasii along with the monks.

He was satisfied with himself. The two faes were going to kill every damn fae that was present in the kingdom hence eliminating the worst threat. Felis was only afraid of faes. As for the werewolves, that wasn't a problem. His Nyxers were going to take care of it easily. He knew that by the end of the day after he was going to take over Pegasii and that too so easily.

Felis lifted his feet on the writing table as his warriors rounded the monks. Kaitos was made to sit in between five warriors and was a queen bee of the monks. If they misbehaved, Felis was going to kill Kaitos and then give others a slow and painful death in order to instill fear.

The servants of the Cetus monastery were too scared of the latest developments. None of them dared to get out of the monastery, fearing that the Nyxers would kill them. It was the king of Hydra they were dealing with and not just any other Nyxer. They brought food for them for the whole day.

When it was night, Felis couldn't sleep out of anticipation. Gamon and Brix had rounded all the monks to make them ride to Pegasii the next day. They had also gone to the stables to check on the horses.

Gamon came back and asked, "What time do we leave?"

Felis was chewing on the soft lamb meat. "Before the nightfall," he said with superiority. They would take at least half a night to reach Pegasii and then he would also have to communicate and coordinate with his army to attack together. "Have you checked upon the stables?"

"I have," he replied.

"Then gather all the monks with dark magic in the courtyard. They all will be coming with us. Each of you," he said, pointing at his warriors, "is going to be leading a group. I am going to group two of you together to lead a group."

"How would I know which monks have dark magic?" asked Gamon.

Felis reached out for a gold chain in his neck. A dark amethyst hung from it. "Take this in front of every monk. If the amethyst turns cloudy on the inside, it means the monk has dark magic."

"Yes, Your Highness," Gamon said and took the chain from him. By the end of the day, he gathered hundred monks who had some form of dark magic.

When the sun descended on the horizon, Felis came out in the courtyard. He stood on a dais and assessed all of them. He spoke loudly to them, "You will be accompanying me to the Kingdom of Pegasii. I need your force to help me conquer that kingdom. If you fail to do so, my Nyxers will not stop at killing you. But I don't guarantee that they will kill you. They might just leave you to die on your own. And that can be very painful. So don't pull your tricks!"

There was fear amongst the monks. They had never been conquered or subjected to this kind of torture. They couldn't help but agree.

In an hour, Felis was heading towards Pegasii with his men. Two Nyxers were riding with a group of monks, and all of them were riding in two lines.

By the time the moon was up in the sky, Felis was on the border of Pegasii. Along with his men and monks, he hid in the forest. He wanted to spy a nearby village to hear about any news. He was sure that the two faes must have created havoc by now. He called a monk and said, "I want you to go to the village and spy for me. If you think of spilling the secret that I am camped here with my men, then remember my threat. Is that clear?"

The monk gulped. He knew that Felis wouldn't hesitate in beheading his brethren. The man was dangerous and a maniac. "I won't..."

"Good. Now go and find out about the faes over there. Come back as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" The monk nodded. Brix held him by his upper arm and pulled him towards the village which they could see through their place of hiding.

As soon as the monk left, Felis asked another to go to the other side of the kingdom and check on his remaining army. He gave him a scroll. "Hand it over to the commanders, and tell them that the king has asked you to attack now!"

Once the monk left, Felis waited in anticipation.

The first monk came back two hours later and informed, "There are no faes in the village. The villagers are saying that there was only one here and he left this morning for the capital, but there has been a fae killing." 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Felis chuckled. This was what he was waiting for. His plans were going to succeed after all. "Great!" he said, rubbing his hand in enthusiasm. "We wait for another hour and then we are going to attack the first village!"

The hour went by very quickly as he regrouped the monks and repeated his strategy to them. "You won't be using dark magic in the first village since there are no faes. Just kill everyone who comes in your way to the next village!"

Felis started on his march to victory and to fulfilling his dream to rule on all of Araniea. They entered the first village and whatever houses they found, they killed the men and women and children. They headed to the next village with their heads floating in the air. The risk that he had taken bore fruits, finally. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om

As they traveled to the next village, they saw little circles of fireflies dancing at various places.
