The four races were fighting with each other. The battle was intense. The ground was rumbling, people were dying, blood was getting shed and the entire war area had a very grotesque atmosphere. Amidst this war, another army, which was the fifth camp, came marching from the sides.
Lith, his friends, and his teacher were watching this war unfold through a bird’s eye view.
Lith’s gaze was fixed on General Minzoi who was charging towards the four armies fearlessly. Even a fool knew that charging head-on was always an idiotic idea but Lith knew that this decision, which the world called idiotic, was the smartest decision in this circ.u.mstance.
A few people among the four camps saw Minzoi’s army coming and they immediately blew the warning trumpet.
BUUUUUUUUUP!
“MINZOI IS COMING!” A man standing on a mammoth-like beast equipped with armor shouted in a conical object. This was an amplifier that amplified his sound to such a degree that everyone on the battlefield was able to hear him.
The fighting ceased for a few seconds and everyone turned to look at Minzoi. They saw his army being twice the size of their own armies. They immediately put up their guards and readied themselves to fight against his army.
But, they realized a problem. They not only had Minzoi’s camp to fight against, there were also the other three present right beside them. They couldn’t just stop and wait for Minzoi, they had to halt the other three too.
This realization came a bit late for a few and the ones who were quicker to react, cut down the ones who were slower and killed them. The fight, which had ceased, began once again, and Minzoi from afar just looked at them with a neutral gaze. Everything was going as planned by him.
Lith observed each and everything to its finest detail and didn’t miss out on anything.
The four armies were in chaos and Minzoi’s army finally clashed head-on with the Elven army. The Elven army had the weakest defense currently and they took advantage of that.
The Elven army wasn’t able to focus properly and due to onslaught from all the directions, they weren’t able to defend themselves well and half of them were exterminated.
After that was done, Minzoi’s army shifted their focus and attacked the Demon army. It had balanced offense and defense and it was challenging to kill them, but with Minzoi’s commands, they were able to exterminate half of the demons as well.
When this happened, the three races were extremely p.i.s.sed off and they communicated with each other and decided to have a truce and kill Minzoi’s army first. The Dragon army also agreed since they knew Minzoi would come for them too.
They had a truce and started attacking Minzoi’s army. But, as they did so, they realized it was their number that was constantly declining and not Minzoi’s. They searched for the reason and found that the dragon’s have gone back on their word!
This was unacceptable and the three armies attacked the dragons. Minzoi’s joined in on too and after an intense fight, the dragons were exterminated fully.
“Amazing. He had planted some spies in the dragon army and made it seem like it was them that was going back on their words. That’s really amazing. To have thought this far ahead.” Lith said with a smile.
Minzoi really seemed like a very capable man and someone pretty smart. The dragons had the strongest defense and breaking it and exterminating them was a difficult task even for Minzoi’s army that a strong offense.
If they attacked the dragons, they would be attacked from the side by the other three races and this would pose a big problem. Minzoi thus had to cook up a scheme and this was how the plan to plant spies came into effect.
After the dragons were gone, the rest was easy for Minzoi. One by one, they exterminated everyone and finally attained victory. This was the last battle that had occurred on the Neutral Continent’s ground.
Minzoi’s name was spread everywhere in the world as the strongest and the smartest general of that era. He was given a lot of benefits and was sought out by every major clan and family to have him as their general. Minzoi obviously rejected them all.
The war that occurred in the Neutral Continent was just a part of what had happened previously that caused an administration to form.
After the war, there were lots of talks going on in the Neutral Continent and since the fifth camp was the victor, they had the major say in it. The talks lasted for many years, many agreements and disagreements happened and finally, the Council of the Neutral Continent was established and an administration was formed.
The races would take turns to govern the continent but the period was very short, just 10 years. A government would be formed that would consist of members from all the races residing in this world, but, the people from the eight main races who were on the shift could exercise veto and had the right to make the final call.
This may seem like dictatorship and it actually was and also wasn’t at the same time. The main race members couldn’t just do as they pleased. They had a lot of eyes over them and thus, most of the time, they refrained from doing anything that may be selfish or something that may potentially harm or corrupt the administration or the continent.
The war could only be said to one-fourth part of the actual things that went into creating order in the Neutral Continent. But, even though it wasn’t too big of a part, General Minzoi’s contributions were too high to ever get ignored or be covered.
This man was given the right to exercise veto by the eight main races and there had been many instances throughout the years that his veto powers changed things for the good.
Minzoi was there for fifteen thousand years, looking after the Neutral Continent but one fine day, he just vanished without leaving any trace or clue to people. It has been almost a million years now and there are still no traces of him. n.o.body knows whether he perished, reincarnated or is into seclusion somewhere.
The only thing people know of Minzoi, are his epic tales and greatness.
