Lord Of Puppets-Chapter 152 – Instant Rebellion.

[2 weeks later after the death of the Garmfon kingdom newly appointed genera: Gustav Chariot]

[Current location: Garmfon kingdom – Rebel’s base.]

"Okay. Listen up you all." – said Oranox Bearmight.

"As you may know or may not know, that bastard Ash grasp over kingdom is pretty much coming apart."

"The people are openly rebelling against him and even some of his own men started to change sides."

"He is desperately trying to take control of the kingdom by using force, but that only filled the people with the will to rebel."

"Not only that, because of the kingdom financial situation being shitty because of him and thanks to us managing to rob him of the necessary funds."

"Simple put, he can’t control his people or the kingdom people."

"And now even his relationship with his allies, the elves is pretty much good as gone."

"If I understand the situation correctly, wouldn’t we now physically overwhelm these fuckers? Why are we waiting!?" – asked impatient knight.

"Because of those shitty traitorous." – said human soldier.

"The kingdom is already in state of ruins because of those fuckers and the next best thing we need them pulling some sort of shit before we deal with them."

"And from I saw myself, it wouldn’t surprise me if those bastard would pillage anything they can and just run away to the completely different kingdom."

"Yea, we need to deal with those parasites in one swoop." – said Oranox Bearmight.

"That is why we will take over the entire kingdom in just spawn of few days."

"We will split up our forces and take down each of the highest ranking bastards, take back over territories with key locations and most importantly, take back the capital city and execute this fat motherfucker."

"Em..... I know this isn’t my position to say it, since you all are war specialist and such." – said the previous king of the Garmfon kingdom Alex Garmvoar.

"But taking over a kingdom in a spawn of few days doesn’t sound very realistic."

"If anything, this may take months."

"No. It won’t." – said the bear beastman.

"This bastard Ash was trying to keep an image of the kingdom still being somewhat ’STRONG’.... But in reality? We already exposed the fucker for who he is and we know the real state of his military force."

"He had been pushing soldiers around nonstop, ever since taking over."

"And we also spread bit of truth, about his whole sacrificial strategy that he had used so the elves would swoop in and save their asses."

"With also his most trusted and only competed military leader also dead, the results are pretty obvious."

"His ’STRONG ARMY’ is only on a fucking paper."

"With nobody proper being in charge of the army, we have pretty much easy target to take down."

"So, let’s not waste a time and start up the preparations."

[Few days before the dungeon taming plan launched by the elven kingdom had even started.]

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN’T COLLECT TAXES!?" – shouted furious king Ash.

"S-sir. It is just impossible! I’ve already collected all possible income that they had! Hell! I’ve even stole some from-"

"IF YOU CAN’T FUCKING GET MONEY FROM PEASENTS, THEN GO MONSTER HUNTING! GET SOME FUCKING MONSTER PARTS AND SELL THEM FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" – shouted the king at the beast-human nobleman.

"DO I HAVE FUCKING THINK FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!" – shouted king Ash at the bunch of nobles that were too cowardly to even stare at their leader face.

"FUCK! ALL OF YOU! DISMISSED! GET OUT! GET THE HELL OF MY SIGHT!"

"NOW!" – shouted the king Ash, straight up kicking out the nobles out of the throne room.

"Fucking useless piece of shit!" – said king Ash as he had his servant give the man a bottle of wind.

"Drink it first." – said Ash as elder beastman butler took the glass of wine and drink it.

(I knew these pieces of shit were useless, but for crying out loud it has been MONTHS!)

(Not weeks, months!)

(Months since we taken over this stupid fucking kingdom.)

(And until this fucking day!? They had done shit!)

(I’ve been only one repairing this fucking kingdom!)

(Hell! I’ve even had to execute some of these fuckers for trying to horde some money instead of DOING THEIR FUCKING WORK!)

(...)

(No... This is way too abnormal.) – thought Ash as he took a sip of wine from his glass.

(Even if they are idiots, all of them, there shouldn’t be THAT much trouble.)

(Fucking royal faction! They are still kicking! They must.... No! Without fucking proper evidence, people will just think I’m delusional.) – thought Ash as he stared at the elder beastman butler, trying to see if he had any form of reaction after drinking the wine.

"..."

(Fuck it. I will make up some evidence and make it look like it was their doing.) – thought King Ash as somebody suddenly burst into the room.

"YOUR MAJESTY! EMERGENCY!" – shouted panicking knight.

"..."

*Sigh*

"What?" – said already annoyed king.

"T-the rebels! The entire city is being attacked by the rebel forces! Our soldiers are getting overwhelmed!" – said the panicking knight.

"..."

"Wait.... WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAID!?" – shouted Ash as it took him a moment to understand what the knight just said.

"!"

Ash quickly ran to the window and looked through it, instantly spotting the chaos and destruction happening around the castle grounds.

"What the hell is meaning of this!? Where the hell did they came from!? How many foes are there!?" – shouted Ash at the knight.

"W-we don’t know! But there is way too many of them! They all showed up in the middle of the city without anybody realizing!" – replied panicking knight.

"BULLSHIT! THERE IS NO WAY THAT COULD BE THE CASE!" – shouted Ash.

"I’ve fucking increased the security of this fucking city tenfold after taking it over! And if you are really telling me they have enough-"

"AH JUST FORGET IT!"

"CALL EVERYBODY YOU HAVE! BE IT ON STANDBY OR ACTIVE DUTY! TELL THEM TO GET RID OF THOSE FUCKERS! RIGHT NOW!"

"Y-yes sir!" – said the knight who tried leaving a room, only for a new knight to storm into the throne room.

"Your majesty! Our barracks has been destroyed! Somebody planted explosives!" – said panicking knight before moments later a servant and soldier quickly ran into the throne room, also bearing bad news.

One by one, Ash was bombardment with a nonstop flow of bad news from all the people that were entering the room.

"..."

(What the hell is going on?) – thought panicking and confused king Ash.

(This doesn’t make sense... The entire city is ruled with iron claw! There is no way so much shit could be happening all at once!)

(There is no fucking logical se-)

"?!"

Suddenly, everybody in the room went silent, as a sound of explosion could be heard coming from outside.

"..."

Ash realized that the sound was way too close to the castle.... And that it came from right behind him.

He looked outside through the window and saw smoke rising up from where the main gate leading to the castle grounds was located.

"!"

"SHIT! CALL ALL GUARDS! KNIGHTS! SOLDIERS! THE MAIN GATE IS UNDER ATTACK!" – shouted panicking Ash.

(NOW THIS DOESN’T MAKE A FUCKING SENSE! MAIN GATE?! HOW!?) – thought Ash as he looked right outside once again, spotting another explosion going off in the direction of the main gate.

"..."

(This does not look good!) – thought Ash as he quickly backed away from the window.

(I need to fucking evacuate from here!)

(But-)

"?!"

However, right as Ash went past his throne, he suddenly lost balance and fell on the ground.

"!?"

"Y-YOUR MAJESTY!?" – shouted worried soldiers as they quickly ran towards Ash who had visible trouble breathing.

(W-what is going on!?) – thought Ash as he started coughing out blood.

"P-poison?!"

"But how?!"

"!" – Ash quickly looked toward the elderly beastman and noticed him bleeding from his mouth.

"Y-you! W-what!?"

"..."

"I’m loyal servant to the crown." – said the elderly beastman as blood started leaking out from his nose and eyes.

"If the death of this old man means the death of a devil like you and all of your little imps, then so be it." – said the elderly beastman as he then vomited large amount of blood before then collapsing.

The knight and soldiers instantly surrounded the beastman.

"!"

"Shit! He is dead!" – said the knight.

"Quick! Antidote! Check if he has it!" – said panicking soldier.

"If he bloody had it, then why the fuck would-"

"..."

"..."

(Am I going to die? Like this?!) – thought Ash as he started vomiting out blood.

"!"

"Shit! Healers! Get the healers!" – shouted a knight.

"WE CAN’T! THEY ARE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!" – shouted panicking soldier.

"FUCK! JUST DO SOMETHING! ANYBODY! HEALING MAGIC! POTIONS! ANYTHING! FUCKING ANYTHING!" – shouted panicking nobleman as Ash began vomiting more blood....And before long, Ash just fell down to the ground.

"!"

"YOUR MAJESTY!? YOUR MAJESTY!? FUCK! HELP! QUICKLY!" – shouted panicking knight who checked on the king.

"..."

"..."

[Current time: Capital city of the Mowiorano kingdom – Great hall]

"And this concludes the report." – said elven knight.

"A massive scale rebellion has appeared all across Garmfon kingdom... Completely taking over each of the critical locations."

"The king Ash.... He has been reported dead. It is still unknown how he died yet.... But the news of his death spread like wild fire throughout the whole kingdom."

"Wait! This doesn’t make sense!" – shouted an elven noblewoman.

"You are saying that they took back their entire kingdom in matter of few days!? That is straight up impossible!"

"W-we checked it and we had confirmed it.... Ash and his men have been executed or imprisoned." – said elven knight.

"There is a lot of things we need to do if we want to have 100% of the whole story.... But from our agents have reported?"

"King Ash and his faction is no more."

"And the previous king of the Garmfon kingdom has once again taken up the throne."

"Shit! Weren’t they our allies?!" – said worried noble.

"Won’t this end up with another war?" – said terrified noble.

"We invested away too much in that human.... I knew we shouldn’t trust him." – said furious noble.

Confusion, anger and fear was spreading throughout the room.

True.

The relationship between two nations was crumbling.... But they were still "Allies".

"Everybody! Please be silent!" – said the elven king, trying to calm down the situation.

"You. First confirm if those news are real or not! I don’t fucking spread around panic for no fucking reason!" – said elven king as he pointed at the knight.

"..."

"Sir.... We had already confirmed it." – said nervous king.

"We did a check up before we came here, since the news sounded way too fake to be true."

"But upon inspection.... We had found these results." – said elven knight, instantly filling the room with the whispers of the nobles.

"..."

"Your majesty. If I may." – said elderly elf nobleman.

"If Garmfon kingdom really was really reclaimed by the previous king, then doesn’t mean we are in danger?"

"He is right!" – said elven noblewoman.

"We helped that bastard Ash take over the Garmfon kingdom, but now that the old king is back in control, won’t he seek revenge on us?"

"..."

(They are no wrong.) – thought elven king.

(Fuck. If I knew that bastard Ash was such incompetent fool who would let the kingdom he obtained be quickly reclaimed I would had never even thought about joining forces with him.)

(No. This isn’t the main problem now.)

(Garmfon kingdom original had much more powerful military power than us.)

(If these bastards recover, then we will be definitely crushed!)

"..."

"We can’t stand idly by." – said elven king.

"There is no way those people will even consider a peace between us."

"They will seek revenge no matter what."

"And so, we have to strike first."

"We shall destroy the Garmfon kingdom and conquer it."

"This is our only path forward."

"And I don’t think anybody is willing to disagree on me with this one."
