My King System
Chapter 81 - Raid Squad

Scar instantly got up and began to run down stairs to wake up Jing. He had just received the news he had been eagerly awaiting. Scar could finally move on to continuing his kingdom domination plan. It would be best to strike as early as possible as to not allow the king's forces to grow even stronger.

Back at Scar's original kingdom, the council begin to discuss their future plans seeing as they had just lost one of their most valuable members.

"What are we supposed to do now? Even if we do defeat Yuki, how are we supposed to recover from the economic crises we'll be in due to overusing our resources?" Carmi asked.

"Why'd he have to leave at the worst possible time? Why couldn't he just help us out a little while longer?" the man wearing glasses complained.

"Well no matter, we still have to deal with Yuki Kaito first. How are the preparations going for Rey Moon's ability?," the man wearing glasses asked.

"We at least have good news. We have managed to gather 500 prisoners from many kingdoms. All it took was a little bribing using Scar's money and the kingdoms happily gave their prisoners to us. We managed to gather 486 prisoners in total," replied Jobon.

"That's great! Even if all else fails, we can rely on Rey Moon to finish off the job," the man wearing glasses joyfully replied.

"Rui, you're still young. It would be best for you to stay out of this battle," said Katsumi.

"I can't do that. I want to bring down Yuki before we're forced to use Rey Moon's ability. Secondly, I can't allow myself to abandon my duties. Even though I may be young, I'm still one of the strongest in this kingdom," Rui replied.

"You sound like you've matured quite a lot in these past few weeks. I won't stop you, do whatever you want," Katsumi said as he sighed.

"Well it sounds like everything is prepared. I've taken the liberty of gathering all the men of the kingdom to join the army. We can't be lenient about the matter at hand so I didn't give them a choice. Women and children shall be spared from the draft though," said Carmi.

No one bothered to argue with his decision. All the members of the council knew that many would die in the battle which was the reason they needed as many troops as possible.

"If there are no objections, we'll move towards the dungeon which Yuki is located at and await the moment he exits from it. It would be perfect to ambush him from the moment he leaves since he'll be exhausted and weak," said Carmi.

"How does going there in 2 days sound?" Jobon asked.

"That sounds good. I'll inform Rey Moon to be prepared as well," replied Katsumi.

All the members nodded in agreement and began to exit the meeting room.

In the kingdom of Lyanna, Jing and Scar greet the people that Scar had called to assist him to bring down the king of the kingdom.

There were only 5 of them there. Just like a proper raid party, there was 1 tank, 2 swordsmen, 1 mage and 1 healer. The tank was a tall and buff man, although he looked scary because of his body figure, his grin was more joyful than anyone else's. While one of the swordsmen carried a long sword, the other one carried short daggers that laid on his waist belt. As for the mage, she carried a large wooden wand with a large blue orb stuck to it at the top. Finally, the healer was a tall woman with her long hair tied in a ponytail. In her left hand, she carried a messy dark brown book.

"So, what's the mission?" the swordsman carrying the longsword asked.

"Straight to the point much? Whatever, I just need you to assassinate the king and make me the new one of this kingdom," replied Scar.

"Why did you decide to take over this one instead of the one you originally spawned in?" the healer asked.

Scar gave a joyful smile and grabbed Jing by the shoulder.

"Well you see, my friend here happens to be a sort of slave to the king. So I might as well kill two birds with one stone. I can kill the king and also get a kingdom of my own to rule at the same time. It also saves you guys time," said Scar.

"When do you need this mission to be finished?" the mage asked.

"Preferably right now," Scar replied with an insincere smile.

"Sounds good. He should be in the castle right?" the tank replied.

Scar nodded in agreement.

Without wasting any more time, the squad began to walk towards the castle to accomplish their mission.

"So are they your friends or something?" Jing asked.

"You could say that I guess. They're more of paid mercenaries but we get along so there's no need to be afraid of them," Scar replied.

Jing swallowed his saliva as he began to contemplate his plan to leave Scar's side to rule over a kingdom of his own. Even if Scar did seem kind at times, his emotions can fluctuate easily which would mean the death of me.

Scar laid his back on the kingdom's entrance gates and began to slide downwards until he was sitting on the ground.

"You should take a seat too. It won't take that long for them to defeat the king. I'll say about 30-50 minutes tops," said Scar.

Jing complied and sat beside him. While Scar was confident in his mercenaries abilities, Jing thought otherwise. While he wanted to believe that he would be free from the grasp on the current king of Lyanna, he doubted it. He had been let down so many times that he didn't bother getting his hopes up. However, he decided to wait.

Nearly 40 minutes later a loud voice could be heard all throughout the kingdom.

"Test... test," the voice of the squad's tank began to speak.

Just hearing that made Jing's face light up in joy. It was as if a dream had come true.
