Gardenia of Blooming Desire

Chapter 277: The Winter War VII

Aster was sleeping throughout the whole journey to Roagelt, because Ramuja did so much that he couldn't feel his body waist down. However, the culprit was in high spirit as he acted like a proper, majestic Crown Prince Rama and commanded his army to march to Roagelt.

Roagelt was the capital city of Golden Camellia. Although it wasn't as big and luxurious as Dionde City, it was indeed suitable to be the capital, because it was well protected. Roagelt also had the biggest military base across the country. It was no wonder when Crown Prince Rama marched to Roagelt, the soldiers were all ready to fight him.

The people were still angered with this Prince Rama from Sun Kingdom, because he went berserk and killed an innocent kid and many bystanders. Thus, they supported their soldiers with food rations. The soldiers in Roagelt was completely different than those station in other regions, because the soldiers here was a lot stronger and well fed.

Sun Kingdom's soldiers were intercepted by lines of cavalries ready with their weapon. The generals from the Sun Kingdom were fierce, they didn't falter at all, especially after their Sun King, Prince Rama woke up in great health.

Ramuja gazed at the lines of cavalry, a shallow smirk plastered on his face. He turned back and entered a big carriage, the carriage was reserved for Milord Aster who was still recovering.

Ramuja entered the carriage and then pinched Aster's cheek gently, "Wake up, wife. We are in Roagelt."

"Hum huh?!" Aster opened his eyes immediately. His eyes darted at Ramuja who was ready with his war armor. Ramuja looked very handsome with shining white gold and diamonds embedded on the chest plate and shoulder plate.

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner!" Aster was vexed, "I have to be prepared! I'm still in my pajamas goddamnit!"

Ramuja chuckled and then kissed Aster's head, "Take your time. We will win this war anyway."

"Why are you so confident? We haven't seen Charles yet!" Aster was worried, today was the big day. This was supposed to be the biggest war between him and Charles, but he was still in pajamas and his waist was still sore.

Ramuja smiled deeply, "Honestly, I can exterminate everyone inside Roagelt, including the soldiers and Charles. But you don't want me to hurt innocent civilian again by accident, right?"

Ramuja's hot gaze was focusing on Aster's slightly open pajamas, revealing his beautifully arched collarbone and his narrow waist, "Maybe if you can give me one more right here, right now. I will consider speeding up the war," Ramuja said ambiguously.

Aster slapped Ramuja's cheek, but due to their strength difference, Ramuja felt that his wife was ticking his cheek instead, "WE ARE AT WAR, YOU PERVERT!" Aster yelled. He hurriedly opened the chest full of his clothes to get ready.

Ramuja pouted, but he didn't dare to say more, afraid that Aster would be really angry, Ramuja said in his heart, 'I will speed up the war anyway, I want to do it again. Next time, I will do it for ten hours straight.'

Ramuja helped Aster to prepare himself. While Aster was combing his hair, Ramuja put the shoes on Aster's beautiful feet. While Aster was busy putting on his coat, Ramuja helped to tighten his belt.

After Aster was ready, he held Ramuja's hand and pulled him, "Ramuja, hold me tight. We don't know whether there will be an assassin or not, I don't want you to get hurt," Aster said while he hurriedly left the carriage.

Ramuja stared at Aster and his shallow grin turned to ear-to-ear smile, 'Are you trying to protect me? How cute.'

Aster pulled Ramuja who followed him obediently to meet with the general in the camp. The generals bowed respectfully to them. Aster coughed lightly, "Pardon my absence for a while, but today is the day that we are going to destroy Roagelt."

"The Emperor's cavalries haven't moved at all because they are waiting for our move. In fact, the longer we delay, the more advantage they have. Because once Emperor Charles returns to Roagelt, it will be a lot harder to win this war."

"Milord, does this mean, Emperor Charles has enormous power behind the soldier in Roagelt?" one general asked.

"Yes, in fact, the soldiers in Roagelt moved in unison according to Charles' order. They are strong, agile, and absolutely devoted to Emperor Charles. While Prince Rama can absolutely decimate the soldiers, we don't want to overstrain Prince Rama's stamina until absolute necessity," Aster glanced at Ramuja who still had that stupid wide smile on his face, Aster was annoyed, because Ramuja didn't seem to take the war seriously. Aster stepped on Ramuja's shoes and glared at him, demanding him to pay attention.

"Hm? Ah, yes, yes! What my cute wife said is correct!" Ramuja added dumbly. The generals stared at their previously mighty Sun King who ordered them with absolute charisma and power was now reduced into a henpecked husband who nodded to what his wife said like an obedient puppy.

'Milord Aster's absolute control over our prince is terrifying' the generals thought in unison.

"Now, Roagelt is protected by a thick wall, and the wall is well stationed with many soldiers. The cavalries are ready in front of the wall to attack, this is quite difficult but" Aster seemed to be in deep thought, and then resolutely said, "What the Emperor soldiers lacked are assassins. Since Charles is not here yet, the assassins from Golden Camellia do not have any order and most of them followed Charles to go to war in Great Arctyr. Go fight the cavalries and soldiers from Golden Camellia head on, while the war in the battlefield is ongoing, dispatch all Sun kingdom's assassins to infiltrate the wall and kill all watchers stationed on the watch tower of Roagelt."

"And after we killed all the watchers, go raise the green flag towards the city. The green flag will signal the soldiers inside the wall to open the gate and send weapons, food rations and medical aid to the soldiers on the front line."

The generals of the Sun Kingdom seemed to catch what Milord Aster's plan was, "Milord, we are going to sabotage this and then destroy the gate once the gate is open after the green flag, right?"

"Correct," Aster nodded, "Do not attack any civilian, but once the gate was destroyed, immediately dispatch our strongest troop to create a mess in the battlefield. The Emperor's soldiers would be in disorder."

"What are we going to do after that? We are going to attack Golden Palace?" one general asked.

Aster's golden pupils had a glint of hostility and then he replied, "Prince Rama and I would lead the soldiers to Golden palace, we are going to attack Golden Palace. Once Golden Palace falls in our hands, I as a golden blood, will announce myself as the conqueror and demand the soldiers to surrender."

The generals were shocked, they looked at Milord Aster who didn't seem to flinch at all. Meanwhile, Prince Rama chuckled and held Aster's hand, he supported Aster with his affirmation, "All of you heard that right, we are going to conquer Golden Camellia, and crown my wife as the new Golden Emperor through conquering. Golden Camellia and Sun Kingdom will be allies for the first time in history."

Ramuja kissed Aster's hand gently in front of the generals. The generals were stunned, they thought that Prince Rama would be the one who conquer Golden Camellia and make Golden Camellia a colony for Sun Kingdom. Turned out, Prince Rama wanted his wife to rule Golden Camellia and he would rule Sun Kingdom.

Prince Rama and Milord Aster would rule over possibly two strongest nations on earth currently.

Although some of them wanted to protest, because they wanted to conquer and enslave Golden Camellia, just like what Golden Camellia did before to the Sun Kingdom, they realized that it would only create more hostility between two nations. Making Golden Camellia an ally was obviously the logical choice to strengthen both countries, especially when the rulers were husband and wife.

Aster looked up at Ramuja and then said, "Husband, it is time for you to order them. You are their ruler."

Ramuja nodded and then ordered the generals in powerful momentum. He commanded with his might, "They had their time enslaving our kingdom for years, let them taste our fury. I, Crown Prince Rama of Sun Kingdom, orders all generals here to stand and fight! Avenge our Sun Kingdom!"

"YES, MY PRINCE!" the generals were ready with their battle gear. They headed outside to command their respective troops.

There were only Aster and Ramuja inside the tent right now, "You already arrange the soldiers?"

"Well, I don't want you to be too tired. So, I arranged them to prepare for the war hours before you wake up."

Aster frowned, "When did you learn about the art of war?"

Ramuja smiled meaningfully, "When I think of making you happy, everything just comes naturally, Aster. You are the magic that makes me able to do everything."

Aster blushed, he looked away and sneered, "Sweet talker."

Ramuja giggled, 'Ah, those days when I pestered Arjun to teach me about war every day and night finally comes in handy. Thank god!'

Charles was going with his horse at full speed. He just saw how Rhea, North Fort, and Silvor was destroyed and burned to the ground. His anger was at the reaching point now. He rushed back with his soldiers to Roagelt, he would arrive at the Roagelt border after a day.

Charles' double pupils contracted whenever he thought about Aster making this much mess in his kingdom. Charles didn't care about the lives of these peasants at all, but it gave him shame because he had been played by Aster like an idiot.

Helene soon caught up to Charles' horse and then reported, "Sir, the reinforcement from Politrea will come the day after tomorrow. We have a huge amount of reinforcement!"

Charles scoffed, "Just order the reinforcement to attack the sun kingdom's soldiers. I will take you and a few trained soldiers and we will go straight to Golden Palace. I know what Aster wants, he wants to dethrone me to secure his position."

"Understood, sir!" Helene said.

'Aster, you've shamed me this much. Once I capture you, you will be begging for mercy as I fuck you in front of the people. I will make sure that you have no more dignity, I will lower you as a bitch. If you can make this much mess as a powerful noble, then I will degrade you as a pet. As long as you are mine, it doesn't matter anymore.'
