Chapter 384 - Marching Orders
The incident caused waves on the forums as people fervently discussed about it.
" Have you guys heard that nearly 50,000 White Radiance members quit the guild in one day? , The incident was massive ! ".
" I heard that the White Radiance guild leader is spineless and whinned like a kid infront of the enemy.?I would also leave if my guild leader was such a wimp ".
" That's not the point , what my brain cannot comprehend is how did one guy manage to take down an entire guild? , Like did the White Radiance guild not boot him from the town or what? Are they retarded? ".
" They must be , how can thousands fall to a single player if that was not the case. I think , this was a staged act , from the Elites to threaten anyone eyeing Purplehaze city ".
" I agree , this can't be true "
" You all are retards , the Elites are kings , #glorytojapan , I love the Elites! ".
" Guys , the clip of the masked man fighting is insane , isn't he the same guy that defeated the seige of Orange Rock all that time ago? , He says he is inferior by a large margin to Guild leader Shakuni , do you think is it true? ".
" Oye oye oye , who is this masked man , he is soo cool ".
" The threat of the masked man is real #dont mess with the elites ".
There were varying opinions on the forums regarding the incident , however none of them were favouring the White Radiance guild ,?Advani had suffered a major setback following the incident as the media was filled with comments calling him a spineless leader.
He kept whinning to his pyschiatrist telling her how he could have never fought that monster, that the opponent was just too strong. However all the confidence he had built in himself over the months was now back to 0.?He was again a broken man , as the therapist knew that it was going to be even harder for the man to recover now.
She truly regretted suggesting him to stand up to the elites , little did she know the patient would end up soo miserably.

( Meanwhile , back in Purplehaze city )
Rudra was back inside the mayor's office as he took charge of the city. The construction of the teleportation array was now complete and he could now fully integrate multi species culture into his city.
Rudra wanted to create a liberal state where , the elves , orcs , dwarves and even the Lizardmen could reside within the city. He wanted the city to be appealing to all races. And with the teleportation array now functional , the dimension of trade and tourism had been significantly broadened.
That aside , Rudra redirected the excess manpower to speed up the completion of the wall project , as he also gave the new weapon designs obtained from Draconia to the lifestyle guild , as well as the design of ' THAT ' crutial piece he obtained from Draconia to Fatty kalash , who was dumbfounded by the intricacies and secrecy needed to complete the project.
That settled , Rudra finally left Karna incharge of the guild , as he had to answer the kings summon tommorow , following which he would be off to war.
One major event that happened was that after Rudra was back , Jhonny requested audience with him and told Rudra that he would be taking some solo adventures for a while , outside the guild , and that he would be back before the protection period ended for the city.
Rudra was hesitant at first , because loosing sir Jhonny for over 3 months , was not something he was keen on. But he knew that space needed to be given to all members , and since it was sir Jhonny's decision he could only support it.
Hence Jhonny English departed from Purplehaze city , to destinations unknown, not to be seen for a while.

Finally the next day , Rudra reported to the military ground of the Royal Millitary , where the entire first legion had assembled. Emperor Cervantez and Patricia were present too.
Rudra bowed to the king , as Patricia glared at Rudra , for him to give a millitary salute . Which Rudra instantly did.
The Emperor chuckled at Rudra's fumble of greetings , as he let it slide. Etiquette was not something Cervantez was bothered about much as long as appropriate respect was shown to him.
The entire 100,000 soldiers all had their eyes on Rudra , their new lieutenant .
Emperor Cervantez said " My Brave warriors , for far too long we have been humiliated by our neighbouring states . For far too long , we have been fighting and loosing wars.
We once dominated the entire continent , but slowly after rebells continued to gain power , we shrunk back to this small kingdom , over the reign of my ancestors.
My ancestors were not strong enough , to claim back the glory of the HAZELGROOVE EMPIRE , but i am not my ancestor. I CERVANTEZ will reclaim the lost glory of OUR kingdom , those who have wronged us will now know the fear of Hazelgroove soldiers , they dared to hit us when we were weaker , but now we are not the weak one's anymore.
My brave soldiers , THEY ARE THE WEAK ONES NOW , they tremble before the very thought of facing the Hazelgroove Army. This Army , AND YOU !?, The time of our suffering is now over , the time for vengance is here!
FOR THE GLORY OF THE KINGDOM! ".
The entire one hundered thousand soldiers shouted back " FOR THE GLORY OF THE KINGDOM".
It was a chilling scene , and Rudra had to admit that Cervantez was a great talker, even he had goosebumps listening to the emperor , as he felt like going to war right now!
Cervantez has a regal aura about him , one that brings weight to every word he says. If he blamed the enemy , they must be wrong , it he says we are stronger , then we must be stronger. Such was the mentality amongst every soldier down in the field.
Cervantez continued " Remember this day brave soldiers , this is the day where our counterattack starts , you are a trained and disciplined unit , much stronger than those rebels, who would fall under the stabs of your swords and thrusts of your spears.
The only thing you needed was a capable leader. And that I have found in the greatest knight household of Hazelgroove kingdom , a name all of you must be familiar with. Shakuni Won Knight !
His achievements innumerable , his strength unfathomable , however the most outstanding feature of the man being his wits and cunning. With him at the helm , glory will be yours. ALL SALUTE THE LIEUTENANT OF FIRST LEGION , SHAKUNI WON KNIGHT ! ".
One thousand men saluted Rudra at once , as Rudra had goosebumps all over his body. This was by far the greatest honor he had recieved in his life. His eyes shining with determination. He was ready to proove the emperors faith in him right.
Saluting back at his soldiers , Rudra felt a bubble of energy rising in his chest.
He was ready to conquer a few kingdoms!
