Shut up: You, Nymphomaniac Evil Sword

The War challenge of the empire was a grand competition, which was held every five years.

An invitation for the challenge was sent to every kingdom , governments , big clans, schools and similar institutions inside the Taraveda star system and  to the neighboring empires and star system too.

  Those who performed well would not only gain glory but also precious rewards. 

The competition was divided into different stages, the people who survived different stages would receive different rewards.

Rebels have miserably failed in completing even the first stage all this time.

Of Course the main reason for this was the presence of the Alliance government within the competition.

The first war challenge was hosted by the great saint Taraveda himself and the empire itself participated in the war challenge by sending the younger generation at times .

This was not a single person battle competition but more like a minor war competition. Each participating organization would send a 100 member team like an army to face the challenge.

There were all kinds of challenges that the small army will have to face to complete each stage.

The empire has also introduced specific rules for the participant, no one above the True warrior realm can enter the challenge unless the competition itself becomes meaningless with all kinds of power houses waving their hands and destroying the small armies on their own.

Of Course there was also separate competition along with war challenges where the outstanding youths of the younger generation fought to see who was better than who through duel competition.

But The war challenge was much more famous throughout the star system and the duel competition was only considered as a part of the war challenge.

Dror was also more interested in war challenge as it was where the smaller kingdoms even had a small chance to shine unless they had a very powerful prodigy to challenge the duel, nor was Dror foolish enough to believe that he was the most strongest among the younger generation.

He has also been browsing through the sky network every now and then, even the geniuses of the Alliance government itself posed threat to him, much less the younger generation of the empire and those secret clans and schools.

As he read through the nodes related to the war challenge his understanding related to the whole event increased and started integrating it with his plan of revolution.

He didn't know the time was passing quickly and the next day had already arrived , while he was still immersed in thinking about all kinds of situations that might arise and how to deal with it.

He heard a knock from outside " Sir, Mr Alexander and the rest are  here to see you.."

It was his maid. Dror soon came back to himself and went to welcome his guest.

Even though his new residence was not any grand luxurious building it was still a compact two storied building with good facilities.

Dror entered the guest room while ordering his maid to bring in some wine for the friends.

Alexander, Old Zhao, Levi, Chaow and Mark were all here , they all had a beaming smile and were discussing  something among themselves, as they saw Dror their smile bloomed more.

Dror didn't understand what was going on so he asked straight forward

" what is going on ? , you people seem to be in an extremely good mood.."

Levi was the first to chime in " I know that you are very good at pretending, but we are friends here …"

Dror was more confused now . He knew other than yesterday's party and the small skirmish between him and Drac there was nothing noteworthy.

Even if he was to consider  both these events together , they were not anything noteworthy in his eyes and it has only been yesterday night that the event took place. 

Alexander of course was the most intelligent and he instantly understood Dror's confusion.

" You faced of against Oliver Belindo in the gathering and  knocked him down a peg or two, right…. You might consider it to be a simple matter but this incident has pushed your reputation to a different heights. Along with you the company's reputation has also risen.

I have been getting calls from different people all along, trying to curry favor with you and the company.

Even though we are considered the rebel army under the king, you should note there are limits to the resources that the council can provide so it is only appropriate for us to invite private investment and support regarding different matters.

Your stunt from yesterday has put us in a very favorable position for us to receive those support and investment from private sources "

Dror more or less understood the gist of the things, it's just that he didn't think that much of the incident and now that he thought about it, all kinds of business and other organizations were indeed flocking around to get acquainted with him and other young dragons in gathering. Maybe this was also the intention of the king's council too; they wanted  the private investors to invest in the young dragon army as well.

Dror didn't think much of this as long as it was something beneficial for the growth of his men; he accepted it with open hands.

The rest also congratulated on his achievement and started discussing about who to work with regarding different kinds of deals, whether it be related to acquiring different raw materials, cultivation resources, herbs or weapons they could use the resources allocated to them from the council to procure it either directly from the Army or other private companies or businesses.

Of Course they would spend it on the businesses who would give them greater benefit and discount, like the people who wanted to get better acquainted with them. 

Even though The discussion was going on Dror was more focused on his own plans regarding the revolution  and he nodded along with the other members suggestion and Dror knew very well that his Deputy Major was much  better at this kind of administrative stuff than himself.

When the discussion came to an end regarding all the important matters Dror put forward a casual question.

" What do you people think of the War challenge ? "

All of a sudden the jubilant room became silent as if someone had muted the entire room.

Each one of the people in the room had a different expression on their face, but one thing was common: a deeply hidden away anger and hatred.

Dror was very surprised to find Alexander who always kept an easy going look on his face, had a serious look on his face now, in fact he was the person whose entire emotion had a drastic change when he heard those words.

Old Zhao was the first to ask in a very serious tone " Major Dror why did you bring this topic up ? "

Old Zhao had even called him major Dror, like he was having an official conversation.

Dror was surprised to see that Levi who always had his back was having a struggle internally, the only person who seemed to be little positive about this whole matter was Chaow.

Maybe because he was young and had great faith in the barbarian god.

Dror could only manage the situation by giving a slight cough " ahem… Everyone please calm down, I am just asking what you know about the challenge and your own personal opinion.."

Alexander  was the first to respond " Dror, I know the king has announced that anyone who volunteers can take upon the challenge… but as a friend and the deputy major I would like to discourage you completely. 

The War challenge may seem a great opportunity and one of the best ways to bring honor to the entire rebel base and our company, but I promise you it's nothing like that but just a death trap, which will swallow anyone who participates from the rebel base into an endless abyss.."

Alexander seemed to have more to say but for some reason he held back and Levi also strongly advised against the whole matter.

Dror was starting to feel doubts regarding the plans that he was making.

Then it was Old zhao who spoke up in a more serious manner " Major Dror , I hope you don't forget what you said when we first met and you recruited me.. the company is really doing good as it is now, we are growing slowly and steadily please consider things seriously before you come to any decision"

Dror could only give a sigh as he remembered what he said to Old Zhao then. He had clearly promised that he would not put his men in unnecessary danger and from their perspective the challenge really seemed like an unnecessary danger.

" But come on people I have just asked for your opinion, don't be that serious and pessimistic  or was I that obvious about joining the challenge… hah of course all of them are experienced people, they could easily guess at what my intention were.."

Dror could only have another long sigh while thinking all these.

Seeing that the topic had made all of them lose their mood, Dror tried to steer away from the topic.

Even though they were discussing entirely different topics now, Alexander kept on stealing glances at Dror every now and then, while considering certain things and thinking to himself.
