Chapter 350: The Rising Storms

Then time was given and Aeryon did not disappoint her father expectation.

Conquering all the small tribes, consolidating his power, recruiting powerful warriors and their warrior clans.

But then the dynamic of the relationship between her father and her husband changes again.

Utgard tribe in the beginning could still compete with Brolgadhr tribe and provide helps.

Now, the only help her father tribe could do is to make sure that the rear is not being attacked and that her father herself would not stab her husband tribe on the back

As long as they could do this, the alliance could be maintained. And since Aeryon is focusing on the west, they would not clash nor did their interest overlaps with each other.

But whether it be her father or her husband, they are both the kind of people that could not bow their heads to other people.

And if her father could not amass great force and power to return to the Central Steppe, then her father need to think of a way to survive in the Southern Great Steppe.

Her father has some desire of wanting to return to the Central Great Steppe, but her brothers might not share the same desire.

"No" she shakes her head. She knows her brother.

They did not share the same desire as her father.

Because they were longer here than they were there.

To them, this is their home.

And even if they want to return back to the Central Great Steppe, it would not be that they left here with their people.

They would conquer the South and then goes to the Central Great Steppe.

Her brothers might not have this ambition before but now that the Utgard has strengthen itself, she herself does not know whether her brothers does not have this kind of feeling.

Sometimes, ambition is only there after certain prerequisite is achieved. Now, that Utgard could at least try to compete for the world, why would her brother not have such ambition?

Even her father seems more alive that he has ever been

She also knows the secret conflict between her brother. For some reason, there is a rumour in the tribe. Ayera shakes her head

"that kind of rumours should not even be entertained" she thought to herself

She did not ask her husband for help because she fears that her husband would now find excuses to interfere in the Utgard tribe crisis.

And if he did, it would not be long before Utgard tribe either have to be destroyed by her husband or become a vassal tribe of the Brolgadhr

Because of the marriage alliance, even if worst come to worst, Aeryon would not render her tribe totally incapable.

But everyone have different aspirations.

The Utgard tribe has great legacy in the Central Great Steppe.

Even now, there is still many tribes in the Central Great Steppe remembers the Utgard name.

Just because you would live a good life under a conqueror, does not mean you have to let that conqueror in

Not to mention the disparity of power between the two tribes there is also the fact that Aeryon could rightfully raise ethe banner of Utgard tribe because he is married to the daughter of the chief of the tribe.

"what should I do?" she did not think of using her soldiers to help. Because this is not a military problem. Kazan did not attack her father.

But this alliance between Kazan and Esbizuk tribe could not be allowed to continue. Because her father could be side-lined.

And if that is the case, the only ally that her father could rely on would be her husband.

The worst-case scenario would be the Esbizuk and the Kazan tribe ganged up against the Utgard tribe like two wolves deciding to eat which parts of a sheep.

Even though she did not yet do the deed with her husband, how could she not know the man that sleeps beside her. Aeryon is a man of little words.

The only time she saw her husband being talkative is if when he is with Belarion or Mayeux.

But even though he did not say many words, she knows her husband. Maybe not everything about him. But she knows his ambition

This is a man that wanted to swallow the world.

If Utgard leave the fate of the tribe to Brolgadhr, yes, the Utgard tribe would be safe but the desire of the Utgard tribe to return to the Central Great Steppe and reclaim their legacy as Utgard tribe would probably perish. Aeryon would not allow two voice in his reigns.

Ayera did not know how to respond. She might be adept at the way of killing, sneaking and stealth but she is not that good in scheming against warlords and politics.

Because this thing is about predicting and knowing people hearts.

Her specialty on the other hand is stabbing that heart. She thought to herself

And sighed again.

Only at this moment she realizes she did not have many talents under her that could help her make suggestion.

Such talent all have dedicated themselves to her husband.

Burchu for example is great at fighting and from what she heard, Burchu is one of the people her husband had great expectation for.

She has many warriors and they were all elite waitrons of the Utgard tribe. They could fight and protect her

These are all talents but there is no talents that could help her scheme. Then she sighed and nodded

"There is only one person I could think of that could help me"

She then decided to send a letter to her father. She might not be able to help her father. But she knows someone who could.

This person is someone whose existence is quite a secret and only a few people who knows about it. But now his name would probably be known by some people. She is referring to the disciple of Mayeux, Jayeux.

The content of her letter is also very simple

Find Jayeux and ask for his advice.

The letter was sent to her father as the battle rages on all over the Great Steppe

.....

In the West

In the west there is none more explosive news than the sudden outbreak of conflict between the Bolghar tribe and the Khagai tribe.

The battle between the Bolghar tribe and the Khagai tribe is in full swing right now.

In the Brolgadhr tribe, Aeryon is riding through the grass with his horse, Ayera send a letter to her father, there is intrigues and plots among the chiefs of the east, the central area and even the northern area is beginning to move.

And in the eastern region itself conflict has also broken out.

With the rise of Esbizuk tribe, great warrior rises to achieve their ambition and fight for fame and fortune.

The alliance between Kazan and Esbizuk shocks everyone and create a ripple. Sordkazan who has always been passive since their expansion is also starting to move.

The reason Sordkazan move is none other than the fact that the Kazan tribe and Esbizuk tribe attacking Estkazan

Estkazan is also probably the target of Sordkazan and they might have their own plan against the Estkazan tribe.

But suddenly when the Karnain the chief of the Sordkazan heard that Dama attack Estkazan with Kazan tribe, he could no longer sit still.

Because if those two managed to carve up Estkazan among themselves, then Sordkazan would be pinned down by two forces.

They have to make a move

Sordkazan, Kazan and Esbizuk tribe all makes a move and the dust of war rises from the east. Four tribes fights against each other, who would win and who would lose?

The East is full of battle and death

But in the west, an equally tense battle is also being waged.

The green grasses stretched endlessly beneath a sky of vast blue. But as time passes by these green grass is dyed red.

Droplets of red falls down to the ground like rain

The sound of battle rang out.

There is the sound of the clash of steel, clashing against each other producing sparks of fire each time these steels collide with each other

Blood is shed and paint the green grass red

The whinnying of horses and the shouts of warriors filled the battlefield like some kind of song.

The blue sky is the witness of this battle, the ground record the dead. Above the sky, the Skyfather watches. Below the Earth, the Earthmother sang.

The Khagai and Bolghar tribe is now facing each other, the battle between these two tribes is unlike any battle these two tribes fought before.

In the past, the battle was never this terrible nor was it this brutal. Because the stake at that time was small. A few skirmishes here and there, a few dules and the tribe leader would then meet each other and agree on a compromise.

But this time, the battle is very different. Because this time, the stake is higher. And there is no compromise to be made

The Bolghar and the Khagai both have the same desire. And only one could gain this desire.

The control of the West

Hence, this battle must be fought. From morning till afternoon, there is battle.

Sometimes, they would retreat and then come back again.

A few of them even try to pass through and goes straight to the settlement to cause chaos.

There is a few small battle fought here and there but now the main force has arrived

Both for the Bolghar and for the Khagai. Whoever lose the battle today would be at a great disadvantage.

If Khagai wins this battle, they would be able to push further north, closer toward the main settlement of the Bolghar tribe.

If the Khagai tribe managed to repel these forces and inflict a heavy damage to the Khagai tribe here today, they would be able to push them back south.

Of course, this is not the only front that both of these tribes are fighting.

Zlata and Duhai tribe with Valgrun is attacking from the west

Burka tribe allows these tribes to pass through their territory to attack Bolghar tribe while Burka tribe is aiding the Haltur tribe.

There is two front for this war. On the west, there is Valgrun the chief of Khagai tribe, Durka the chief of Duhai tribe and Zanbata the chief of the Zlata tribe.

All of them are allies and vassal tribe of the Brolgadhr. To the people of the Great Steppe, the Khagai tribe is allied with Brolgadhr tribe and Brolgadhr tribe is honour bound to help an ally

The fact that Khagai tribe already wholeheartedly serve the Brolgadhr tribe is only known to a select few.

There is a difference to the people between being a vassal tribe and being an ally.

If Khagai tribe is an ally, it is reasonable for Aeryon to send help.

But if Khagai tribe is a vassal tribe, then what Khagai is doing right now is actually an invasion an attack by Brolgadhr tribe toward the western border tribe.

The status is different and so the meaning would also be different.

Hence, why Khagai chief never admitted himself to be the vassal of Brolgadhr and to the outside world remains an ally of the Brolgadhr tribe.

Only then would Aeryon could easily send help without being seen as someone who is interfering in the matter of the Western border tribe.

If it was Brolgadhr tribe that attacked Bolghar, then the entire western tribe border would unite together and force Aeryon back to his area.

But if it’s a battle between Khagai and Bolghar then this is a matter of the western border tribes.

And now, the battle of the Northern front for Khagai domination of the west began
