Maximo and his team completed the Alves Tower construction three days ago. King Mauri summoned the captains of the various Majar groups, the councils, and the Majar King to a meeting.
Next to King Mauri sat the Captains of various Majar parties, accompanied by the Councils and Maximo.
The Majar King and his assistant were standing behind King Mauri.
As he stared at them, Maximo remained quiet, waiting for King Mauri to say something.
" We've all gathered to discuss our plans to stop the Devils from attacking the Kingdom of Nara!" King Mauri began to talk.
" As we all know, Maximo's Alves Tower is already finished, " King Mauri added.
The Captain of White Horse, Jimmy, gave Maximo a hard look, and Maximo replied in the same manner.
" The Devils would have difficulty entering the Nara Kingdom using this Alves Tower. It's just a stumbling block for them, preventing them from easily entering, " King Mauri elaborated.
All of them were scrutinized by King Mauri.
" As a result, we must now prepare how we can combat the Devils if they unexpectedly invade the Kingdom of Nara."
Alexander, the Majar King, was the focus of King Mauri's attention.
Alexander took a walk and displayed the Nara Kingdom Map.
" This is the Kingdom of Nara's Map, " Alexander said to them.
" There are three villages in the eastern part of the Kingdom, two villages in the western part, one village before the Capital in the northern part, and two villages in the southern part where Amara is located, " Alexander explained the various villages in Kingdom Nara.
" Every Village has four Alves Towers, with the exception of Amara, which has eight, " Alexander explained.
" As a result, we must designate for the Kingdom's protection! " King Mauri said unequivocally.
" If that's the case, Alexander, what do we do?" Crisanto, the Captain of the Golden Tiger, inquired.
Alexander drew their attention with the words, " OK, listen. "
" Russel, you will go to the eastern part of the Nara Kingdom with your group, " Alexander said to Russel.
As a response to Alexander, Russell nodded his head.
" You will take the Nara Kingdom's western half, Mercy. You just need to defend two villages at that position, " Alexander went on.
" With your group, Crisanto, you will be guarding the northern portion. "
Crisanto smiled and nodded.
" You'll take the southern half, Jimmy and Max, " Alexander said to them.
" Why do I have to work with Max? " When Jimmy heard that he and Max were together in the Nara Kingdom's southern region, he expressed his displeasure.
" What's the matter, Jimmy? Is there a problem?" Alexander had inquired of him.
" No, there is no problem! What I mean is, why do I need company? I'll be able to protect the southern portion by myself! " Alexander was informed by Jimmy.
" Alexander, Jimmy is right. And, for one thing, I'm in charge of the security here at the Capital, " they were interrupted by Maximo.
" Max is right, Alexander. Max is not permitted to leave Capital because he will be in charge of the defense unit." King Mauri backed up Maximo's claims.
" Sorry for the inconvenience. I had no idea about that , "Alexander expressed regret.
" So, Jimmy, be careful in the Nara Kingdom's south, " Alexander explained.
Jimmy fixed his gaze on Maximo.
Maximo was aware that Jimmy was staring at him, but he chose to ignore him for as long as he could.
" Has anything changed for the members of your groups? " The Captains were asked about their representatives by King Mauri.
" All the Majars in my party received five red bars to their Armas, King Mauri, " Crisanto said first.
Because of what Crisanto said, all of the Captains turned to look at him.
" Crisanto, are you serious about that? In our Armas, the Captains have one gold bar! " Russel was perplexed and couldn't believe what he was seeing.
" You are right, Russel. I was able to persuade them to put their limits, " Crisanto gave a thoughtful response.
" That's fantastic news, Crisanto! Keep managing your members so that they can defend our kingdom! " King Mauri congratulated Crisanto.
" For the past months of training, King Mauri, I saw that my members' magics and Armas strengthened, as well as their combat abilities, " Mercy told King Mauri.
" If that's the case, Mercy, I believe your party is ready to defeat the Devils! " King Mauri exclaimed.
" My members are ready, King Mauri; their Armas, abilities, and endurance have all been enhanced, " Jimmy said, his head raised.
" The same as my party, King Mauri, and I promised you that we would not disappoint you, " Russel assured King Mauri.
" What about the recruits, Alexander? How are they being trained? " King Mauri inquired.
" In my view, King Mauri, " Alexander replied, " The newly recruited Majars members are all set! "
" That's fantastic, Captains! " exclaimed King Mauri.
" So, for the Capital's Defense unit, I personally asked Max if he wanted it, and fortunately, he did not hesitate to accept my offer, " King Mauri said, smiling and looking at Maximo.
" I pledge to do my duties, King Mauri," Maximo said as he stood up. I will defend the Kingdom of Nara to the best of my ability! " Maximo assured King Mauri.
" Do you have any concerns about what we spoke about? " King Mauri inquired.
They replied, " None, King Mauri! "
" If no questions arise, the councils will provide you with what you require, and you shall then proceed to your respective locations! " King Mauri's final words.
They all left the room where they were conversing.
Jimmy confronted Maximo after they had left. With a smile, he raised his shoulder to Maximo's shoulders.
" Don't worry, Max, I'm not going to live Amara for you, " Jimmy told him.
" I'm not concerned about Amara, Jimmy, " Maximo said.
Because of what Jimmy had told him, Maximo closed his eyes and sighed.
" I know they'll be able to defend themselves against the Devils if they threaten them, " Maximo assured him.
" So, if I were you, all you have to do is concentrate on another Village in the south, where they desperately need you more than Amara, " Maximo added.
Jimmy's pupils constricted. Maximo seemed to be dismissing him. Maximo seemed to be looking down on him.
' Does he think that way about me because of what happened when we first met? 'Jimmy pondered this.
‘ I'll prove to you, Max, that your opinion of me is incorrect! I am a Captain of the White Horse, a Captain capable of defeating any Devil I come across! ' Jimmy declares to himself.
Darkius, Land of the Devils
" Nasakagana anim nga Devils, Yre! " ( All the Devils are ready, Yre! " ) Calix informed Yre.
Yre smiled because of what Calix said.
" Nu katsa, isakagana anim! Napam yato ti aros nga dima ekstakperen! " ( If that so, get ready! We will attack at the time that they don't expect! ) Yre ordered them.
All the high-level Devils smiled.
" Tanki yato nu naa maamiradan yo, Chronia! " ( Let's see if what will you do, Chronia! )
