Speed-run Civilization

Trip Down Memory Lane (Part 3) : Jaren

`Knighthood Academy Ancorna`  -5 years ago-

A young girl was thrown on to the floor by boys who had wooden swords on their waists and noble altires. A boy starts removing his belt, and he has a sharpened knife! He starts to start swinging it at the girl.

Others start laughing, the girl seems to be a slave because she has a slave collar.

A young man with black hair , brown eyes and pale skin walked towards them with his wooden sword and stood right in front of the girl. He lazily glared at the noble boys and stood in an attack stance.

“You! What do you think you are doing huh..!?” said a bulky looking young man. all the other boys glared at the Black hair boy in anger.

“Saving a lamb from hyenas what else?” Said the black haired boy.

“Hump.. Do you even know who’s slave that girl is!!? You should be begging for forgiveness!! whichever noble family you are from I don’t think you even qualify to look them in the eye.!!” Said another boy with blue attire.

Anyone can tell that the black haired boy didn’t look anything special. He only wore some noble slik clothing that told these boys that the black haired is some baron or viscount.

“pfft nice one” Said the Black haired boy. Which angered the noble boys , one of them started to charge towards him but suddenly stopped. Everyone looked to see why the boy stopped only to find a red haired young man standing in front of him pointing his sword towards the boy.

“Your highness, why are you taking this filthy low life noble’s side?” Said the bulky boy.

“I knew there are idiots in this academy but didn’t know they were this idiotic” Said the red haired boy and looked towards the black haired boy.

“If you want to start a war over slave then I have to say no to that Young Master Jaren” Said the red haired boy to the black haired boy.

“I never said I will start a war or something, in fact they didn’t even give me a chance to say anything so you see they are in the wrong Young master Eli” Said the black haired boy.

Cold sweat started flowing from the foreheads of the noble boys, that rugged looking guy is the prince of Conley and they were just going to start a fight with him. They were just some Duke or Prince of some kingdoms whose families couldn't bear the consequences of offending an imperial prince. Now the boy who said that Jaren was not qualified to talk to them felt like punching his past self.

“Anyway I don’t see any reason in you trying to save this slave? is it just to show off?” Asked Eli.

“No, this girl right here helped me a few days ago with something and she didn’t ask anything in return so I plan on repaying her.” Said Jaren with bored eyes.

“But you know young master Jaren that slave belongs to big brother Landon I don’t see how you can help her” Said Eli

“Well I will buy her from him. Is there any problem with that?” Said Jaren

“Ha.. Of corese there is it's Landon I am talking about, anyway I will convince him into selling this slave to you so just leave this incident here” Said Eli

Jaren raised his eyebrow “why are you helping me?” Jaren didn’t understand this weird change he thought maybe this Eli guy will also join them saying ‘only the same class can fight or something’ after all Ancorna is known for these nobles who believe in privileges and stuff.

“To resolve unnecessary conflicts , unlike you or these idiots I know the consequences of you all idiots fighting here” said Eli and started walking off. 

“Interesting,” Muttered Jaren, no one heard it.

 “I will remember this favor maybe we can be friends in the future” Said Jaren and walked off with the Slave girl.

This was the day when Jaren and Eli Became friends. This is when Eli started his plan to take over Conley via Jaren after seeing how much of an idiot he was , he concluded that he can use him by putting some Ancorna Ideology into his head by hanging out.

-1 weeks before the attacker's ship arrive-

The port area had a huge slope wall of sand bricks made with the use of Pulleys and Catapults, the workers were able to make it in time. All the Siege weapons were placed on top of this Slope Wall ready to fire any time. 40-50 knights were stationed here to be ready to fight anytime, The Citizens were all evacutaded near the northern estate. Now all Eugene could hope was that the enemy actually landed in the port area even after seeing the large slope wall.

If they went around Jola and planned to attack from the sides then it would be devastating but he had to take the gamble. He can’t do more preparation than this without raw material and manpower.

He stationed 50-60 knights around the Northern Estate so that they could stop the Enemy from reaching the citizens in case the port area fell.

There were ice cubes getting transported towards the western Estate and the Eastern Estate, Nobody knew why but it was all part of the plan so they obeyed orders.

50 knights were guarding the Castle in the center estate where Eugene Lives, yes he is going to stay in his castle even when his place is being attacked this was to distract the enemy towards the Castle. To keep the Citizens safe he has to make himself bait.

There was another reason why he was not on the frontlines in the port area. He doesn’t want to see blood, that’s right even though Eugene knows that many will die today he can’t make himself go see it himself.

“I would rather die in my room getting information about losing then to die on the frontlines because of a sneak attack before I know the result of the war”

(A wise discussion you are not good at fighting so you being in frontlines and commanding is useless)

Thanks for reminding me that I am useless, Aria. I smiled bitterly. 

“Well I am sure Prime 5B is enjoying this”

(he is, War is the most entertaining thing for Adminstors after all)

“My people will die and it’s nothing but entertainment for him” 

What can I do after all this is the reason i am here for even if i want to live a peaceful life I am sure some way or other Prime 5B would make it so that it’s entertaining for him after all he brought me from a different world just to entertain himself so i don’t believe he will not pull another stun if nothing of entertaining happened.

Captain Freeman could see a small yellowish dot on the horizon and he instantly knew that it was Jola. They have finally arrived.

“Get everyone ready in a week we will dock on Jola and start setting up Lord Ryan’s Slave base”

“Yes Commander!” Said the Knights “Yes Captain” Said the Crewmates.

 Dan did not believe that he would face any retaliation from these people here so he just ordered his crew to take out their camping equipment and stuff.

He told all the crewmates to bring the food, wine , wood etc. to the deck , he didn’t even believe that they had to fight so he told them to be ready to unload all the cargo when they landed.

A smile appeared on his face.
