Chapter 399: World War Part Two
Alicia felt Blakes hand rubbing her belly causing her to smile. It had been three months since the war had started. No one was giving her any reports on what was going on causing her to worry a bit. It seemed that she was completely banned from knowing the war's progress in order to not stress her out.
"Blake, should we go take a peek?" Alicia asked.
"No. We will not leave here until the baby is born. Alicia, I know how much you want to know how the war is going but you have to remember that right now it's not only your life at risk anymore. The safest place for you right now is this space." Blake shook his head and answered in a gentle voice. Alicia pouted but did not try to push the subject anymore.

"We are now three months into this war and we seem to be at a stalemate." Tang Ming looked at the war map on the table and sighed.
"Wouldn't it be easier if I just wiped them all out?" Tang An frowned and asked.
"An, we can't do that. Although it would make things easier, right now we need to reduce the numbers of the enemy as much as possible. They keep tossing more of their men to their deaths. But they have not been able to budge from the area they had taken since the start of the war. If they try to push ahead the new weapons we received from the research teams will lay waste to them. We are holding the line according to Akari's plan she drafted before finding out she was pregnant." Tang Ming explained.
"Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore. How are things on the other continent?" They have been in constant contact with Master Sei and Old Don. So news was always coming in with status reports.
"Master Sei's last report said that they are in the same situation. It seems the people of the Holy Land who started this war did not expect such a large resistance. Right now they are trying to fight on two fronts so their forces are spread thin. With us slowly killing off their soldiers on both fronts with our new weapons, we are actually winning since our side has minimal losses. To be honest I am amazed at how Akari came up with such a set plan without knowing so much about the enemy." Tang Ming smiled as he praised Alicia.
"That girl has always come up with good plans. When she went through her squire test she passed the hardest test possible that no one had ever passed before. On top of that, she slowly progressed in her way of thinking as a leader. Although sometimes her actions were a little rushed but as time goes on her ability to lead is really starting to shine. This is why she is my Crown Princess. " King Augustus said as he took a sip of tea.
"To think her skills would have gone to waste if she stayed on Earth. If she was able to stay living as a regular human she would have lived a life that would have hidden all her talents." Tang An sighed. She was somewhat happy she made the decision she did at that time.
"Your Majesty!" A young soldier ran into the tent.
"What's wrong?" King Augustus asked.
"Her ladyship, Loeri has gone crazy. She has turned into a huge dragon and is rampaging on the battlefield." The young soldier hurriedly explained.
"What? She can transform!? What happened? Explain!" King Augustus had never heard of Loeri transforming into a dragon before.
"Someone from the enemy side called the Crown Princess a dirty whore in front of her ladyship and it seemed to have set her off. Next thing we knew, she had transformed into a dragon ten times the size of any of the other dragons."
"So she was an ancient dragon all along… That explains why her parents never came back to get her… The poor lass. An, Ming, I will need both of your help to calm her down, I think… Ancient dragons are not easily dealt with. Worst case we will need Alicia to come out and help us..."
"I am already here. Royal Father, you forget that my connection to Loeri is much deeper than an average contract. Loeri's life or death is connected to my soul. If I die so does she." Alicia appeared with Blake. There was no stopping her when she felt something wrong with Loeri.
"You brat! You dare come out after we told you not to!?" Tang An yelled.contemporary romance
"Mom… Loeri is like my sister, She has been my companion since I came to this world. I can not leave her in the state she is in. I can tell if we do not calm her down soon she will lose her sanity altogether." Alicia looked at Tang An her determination to go not wavering in the slightest.
Tang An looked at her daughter and let out a sigh. "Fine… But you will be surrounded by us. If things get out of hand you are to retreat, do you understand?"
"Mmm… I promise. No matter what I will make sure to not bring harm to myself or the baby." Alicia only wanted to go and stop Loeri. She did not plan to join the war. But if the enemy decided to get in her way she would not mind giving them a taste of her power.
