Silverleaf belongs to him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flap! Flap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of flapping made him lift up his eyes, but even his eyes could only see a golden flash, and in the next moment, golden flames rained from the sky, pulverizing rebels who were assaulting civilians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the golden lion, which has four wings, long golden horns, and dragon-like claws, Baron Rutherford's eyes widened to the limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is that?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Rebel standing below him exclaimed, his arms trembling as he watched the dragon-like creature breathe flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Change of plans. We're leaving this town.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baron Rutherford said suddenly. He jumped down, running towards the stables as fast as his legs could take him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The appearance of that beast wasn't part of his plan. Who could have expected that a subspecies of the dragon species, the lion dragon, was in this city?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fighting it without a well-trained, well-equipped troop was suicide!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so the only remaining option was to escape!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Baron Rutherford ran toward the stables, Baron Scarlet was heading for the blacksmiths, the most important people in this town when the lion dragon appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scorching flames, several times hotter than his flames, made him turn. His eyes widened as he watched his men turn to ashes in mere seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast landed, its claws sank into the ground as it slowly turned toward him. Before Baron Scarlet's eyes, the beast instantly transformed into Geriant, the warden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Under the orders of the count, you are to surrender or die.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baron Scarlet frowned. \"You might have had the advantage as that beast, but not when you're human!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shot forward, closing the gap and swinging his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geriant blocked the attack with his forearm, folded the fingers of his other hand, and threw a punch that launched Baron Scarlet into the smithy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head to the other rebels, and his eyes transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know the punishment for rebellion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, fangs grew out of his mouth and his body began to transform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting inside a study was a gray-haired man looking at the air. He supported his chin with his arm while looking at the stats of his cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he needed to be in the city to check their stats, but it seemed like the system was evolving as he rose in noble ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a count, he could check the stats of his cities, and one of the reasons he did this was to check their security status and loyalty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, he wasn't too bothered by loyalty stats since it had risen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Goshen was the only city he was worried about because of the influx of new civilians, but their stats were on the safe side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[City's Name: Goshen\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City's Tier: 3\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City's Grade: Normal\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Population: 120,000\u002F100,000\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Security: 72\u002F100\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loyalty: 81\u002F100]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A breath of relief escaped his lips. Nineveh has the highest loyalty rate, almost hitting 100! Second to Ashkelon and third to Goshen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nimrim was at the same level with Ashkelon, while the town in the horror forest had about 65 loyalty, the same with Tiberias.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when Asher was about to close the panel, he sighted a yellow light amongst the soothing blue panels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he made the panel appear before him, his pupils dilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Town's Name: Silverleaf\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Town's Tier: 3\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Town's Grade: Half-Mythical\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Population: 3000\u002F5000\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Security: 2\u002F100\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loyalty: 37\u002F100]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asher ignored the appearance of this new stats that showed the grade of the dominion as his eyes were fixed on the security and loyalty stats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anything below 50 for loyalty meant that city needed troops to keep it under control and avoid rebellion, but the security was almost nonexistent and the loyalty was so low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before his eyes, it dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Loyalty:35]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must know that a drop of loyalty stat in a dominion was different from that of an individual. For the dominion's loyalty to drop, it must involve several people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asher rose up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alex was stunned when the door swung open and Asher stormed out, his cloak fluttering as he\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>walked down the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gather the swordsmen; we ride for Silverleaf!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Alex gathered the King Swordsmen before the castle, all of them holding the reins\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>of their horses, they found Asher on Sirius' back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lord, what happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kelvin rushed out of the castle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something is going on in Silverleaf. I need to see what it is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But my lord, you can send your subordinates.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kelvin's words fell on deaf ears as Asher rode out of the castle with his swordsmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They galloped through the streets at full speed, causing those fast asleep to jump off the bed\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>as the ground was trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light of the moons kissed Asher's solemn. From a tall tower, a silver-haired beauty clad\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>in a light blue nightgown looked out the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is his lordship heading to at such an hour?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an hour, Asher arrived at the outskirts of the Bastide.
