A direct revenge - K314

That was supposed to be a calm day, like any other in the life of someone who had decided to return home and rest. After a bloody invasion in Kingdom 122, which cost the lives of a large portion of my troops and left me weakened, I was focused on rebuilding my army and increasing my stock of resources, with no plans to start a new invasion anytime soon. But something happened… something that shattered my peace, a message arrived from Mazzy, he was begging for help.

A player named SpaceWulf, an important member of the G01 alliance, had attacked him. Mazzy was responsible for the alliance’s farms; he was the central piece for control and management of resources and food. We had built several bases across different kingdoms to use as a refuge in case of a war that left us with nowhere to go, and Mazzy was the one taking care of everything in Kingdom 314. After seeing what had happened, I did not hesitate; I needed revenge.

For three weeks, I watched SpaceWulf’s castle hour by hour, waiting for a small mistake. All I needed was for him to lose his protection bubble. I knew he was not weak; his reputation spread across the seven kingdoms like the wind. His battles capturing enemy lords with his bow trap were well known, and I knew exactly what I was getting into. On a cold and dark night, it finally happened… SpaceWulf was without a protection bubble. I took a deep breath, prepared myself, and invaded Kingdom 314.

SpaceWulf had made a mistake, and now it was time to make him pay. The hunt had begun.

The first attack had begun. Breaking through SpaceWulf’s wall was a difficult task; half of my army had taken damage, but the satisfaction in their eyes was clear as they realized the size of the damage they had dealt to SpaceWulf’s castle. Half of both armies had been wiped out, but SpaceWulf’s losses were eight times greater.

Despite the heavy damage I took, I was expecting much stronger resistance. For some reason, my target had two commanders on his wall who were not bow, and his troops were heavily mixed. What used to be a well-known bow trap had become something much weaker and less lethal, but it still caused significant damage to my army.

I knew the first attack had not been easy, but I was there for revenge, and even if it cost my entire army, I would leave satisfied. Still, I admit that when I saw the result of the second attack, I lost motivation and thought about giving up. Once again, half of my army had been wounded or eliminated, while I had only managed to deal damage to SpaceWulf’s T1 and T3 troops. But I could not stop, I was here for a reason, and I had to keep going, or SpaceWulf and G01 would think they could attack us anytime, and we wouldn’t do anything.

With each attack, my army was shrinking drastically. This was the third battle that I was losing some T5 troops while only eliminating T1 and T3. I was starting to regret doing this. I was learning the hard way that honor often comes at a very high cost. Fortunately, before launching that invasion and knowing my target was a bow castle, I had trained a large number of troops, which allowed me to easily replace the losses and continue the attacks.

Before launching the fourth attack, I noticed a castle moving closer to SpaceWulf. I did not know if it was going to send a garrison or reinforcements to protect him, or if it was just trying to intimidate me. But when I realized it was not doing anything, I launched the fourth attack and asked Mazzy to send a letter to G01 leadership.

After three difficult battles, things were finally starting to get a little better. This time, SpaceWulf had an army composed purely of bows, but it was not enough to stop my cavalry. SpaceWulf lost three million troops, while my losses dropped to less than 175 thousand. My attacks were finally producing strong results, and that battle was nearing its end.

The fifth attack ended that invasion. SpaceWulf was defeated and, despite having dealt heavy damage to my army, his fall was inevitable, and the destruction inflicted on his fortress was severe, perhaps almost irreversible. My job was done, I could finally return to my kingdom and rest, just as I had planned from the beginning.

Mazzy sent a message to G01 leadership. I was attacking SpaceWulf as a form of revenge, but I did not want to bring an endless war to their kingdom, so I offered a peace agreement between the two alliances. At the same time, I asked Mazzy to make it clear that if he were attacked again, we would come to take that kingdom from them, and there would be nothing they could do to stop us.
