In the following month lucious will be 21. He realized by the time of his birthday he'd still be in campaign. Though he is saddened by having a birthday alone while in campaign he knew what he had to do. Nevertheless he ordered his men to get ready as in a few days they'll set off to the campaign. Lucious knew very well which kingdom he was going after...

The kingdom of Girlindis,

This kingdom has been on a decline ever since the 16th king ascended the throne. Though in decline within the population and the amount of resources to live the empire has a vast amount of land just what lucious needed...

Soon enough lucious went to the palace to receive the emperor's blessings.

"Lucious my boy. May you return victorious once again and may you have a safe journey. I your Emperor give you my blessings. "

And so lucious made his way to his army but the path to the imperial military grounds have to go through the imperial garden. And there lucious halted in the center of the garden as there stood before him princess amaris. As the wind blew the princesses gave lucious a warm smile. Lucious was Mismarized by her beautifuly piercing blue eyes...

Amaris: Lucious it's been a while...

Lucious: Your Highness... Do you need something from me or do you wish to order me something?

Amaris: No lucious. I wish to tell you about my marriage.

Lucious: Amaris...

Amaris: Ah i see you still remember my name. I though you forgot about it already.

Lucious: I would never amaris. But it is not my place to interfere about your marriage and you know that. Why do you wish to speak about it?

Amaris: My father wishes me to marry evander lucious...

Lucious: Oh is that so? I congratulate you your Highness and I assure you evander is a good man and you'll be a good match! He'll treat you very well. (≡^∇^≡)

As lucious begrudgingly said that tears started to fall from the princesses eyes. She looked up to lucious as tears fell from her blue eyes. Lucious didn't know what to do. He didn't understand what was going on with the princess so he asked...

Lucious: Amaris what's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Are you alright?

Amaris: Help me lucious... I don't want to marry evander.

Lucious: Wha-what do you mean? Evander is a great man amaris you don't need to worry about him!

Amaris: I know lucious I know! But I can't marry him!

Lucious: Why?

Amaris: Because I don't see him as a lover I only see him as a husband... Please help me! I need you to stall my father! You need to help me postpone my marriage lucious! Please!

Lucious: Amaris... I'm not in the position to interfere..

Amaris: Please... Lucious help me...

Lucious: Okay amaris calm down... Now I'll help you.

Lucious finally agreed to amaris's please and amaris hugged him goodbye.

"I'll wait for you lucious. I'll be here when you return. "

And so lucious set off on campaign. He arrived after a week or so at the battlefield with his powerful army with him. He started to plan and strategies his way into the kingdoms massive walls. He ordered men to look far and wide for the best blacksmiths and craftsmens as he wants the biggest cannons to be built to crush through the palace walls. But lucious himself also wanted to be included in designing the cannon as he also loved crafting and designing. But this was different as this would be the first time he would design a weapon or artillery. But with the walls so big and strong he wanted to design a cannon so huge that would be able to peirce through the walls of the kingdom straight to the palace. So studied day and night on how cannon designs were built while Strategizing everyday on where he would place his men in battle. And after a week his men presented him the best blacksmiths and craftsmens to help build and design the cannon. And so they started to design. Soon enough lucious and his new recruits sent out the command to start building the cannons. He ordered 50 cannons to be built in only a few days. Everything had to be rushed as lucious was getting impatient. Everyday that the cannons were being built lucious's would fall one by one little by little. And more trouble came as he received a letter from amaris that evander has arrived in the capital. Lucious was going insane of how things were luckily the 20 cannons were at least done so lucious ordered his men to start firing the cannons. And once the first cannon was fired one of the guard towers instantly fell. The people inside the kingdom were struck with fear of lucious's powerful creation. One by one the cannons were fired hour by hour. Soon enough more and more cannons were built and soon the walls fell. That night it was time lucious said. It was time they grew victorious against there enemies to end the campaign. That evening of that day lucious turned 21 and he was ready to bring victory back for the empire.

"This battle has taken long enough brothers! It is time for us to show them the might of our empire! The great land of the God's! The powerful Trystia empire! Charge!!! "

And so the battle began. Blood began to spill throughout the terrain as bodies fell one by one. Victory came closer as each of their enemies fell. Lucious led the army through the kingdom to rush through the palace. Each swing of his powerful blade bodies fell. He ordered his men to spare those who surrender peacefully. But no enemy soldier surrendered so lucious set fire to the kingdom and as he finally reached the imperial Palace he saw the empires ruler at the palaces imperial balcony watching his empire burn to the ground. With the bow and arrow gifted by hyacinth lucious took his bow and placed an arrow and shot the king. As the arrow pierced through the kings Head his body fell from the highest balcony of the kingdom. As his body finally reached to the ground lucious lit the corpes on fire and declared...

"I lucious of Trystia declare our army victorious! We have done it brothers! We counquered this land for our beloved empire! We have been blessed by our merciful gods to be triumphant in battle! Finally! Prepare to take over these land's and we shall return!"
