Soon enough the two reasons they used to reassure themselves were proved to not be working well as they thought...

Their standing armies didn't help, the enemy's three separated armies didn't weaken them...

In the same week, the main armies of 3 Baron families and a Viscount family were destroyed... the least one of them had an army of 60,000-strong and the most of them was 130,000!!

the battles were decisive and fast, it seemed like the battle was won the moment a Burton army arrives...

The survivors of those battles said that even after applying some strategies to nullify the damage of the Fire Explosion talismans, it was of no use... the Fire Explosion talismans still rained down on them in huge numbers, it was as if hell had descended upon them.

Knowing their the Fire Explosion talismans-proof strategies and that trying to use fewer amounts of the Fire Explosion talismans will damage his own army and maybe even stop him earlier,

and in order to give themselves bases to defend and walls to sleep behind in this hostile territory... Rabin was not stingy in using the Fire Explosion talismans this time.

In the four confrontations, the Burton family's armies used more than 120,000 Fire Explosion talismans in total!

Like the strike of a whip, Duke Harris suddenly found himself losing 40% of his territory in the first week of the invasion!

Despair was finally starting to seep into the hearts of the public... If the invader continues at this pace, they will eat the entire duchy in no time!

but the experts are reassuring them that this is just temporary momentum that always happens at the beginning of any invasion and that the invaders certainly no longer have any talismans, and that they will finally have the chance to counterattack

Indeed, the citizens of the Duchy of Harris began to believe them, and morale began to rise...

During the following week, none of the enemy's three armies advanced again and contented themselves with consolidating the fortresses that they had controlled in absolute silence, like they already had enough and wouldn't advance another step.

Until...

The news came that two of the three armies had united and attacked a Marquess family at the center of the Duchy, destroying the 170,000-strong army they have been gathering for the counterattack, and taking full control of their lands!

and then they separated again, and one of the two armies went back to march north as if nothing had happened.

The third week has barely started since the invasion began, but the Burton family has already controlled 65% of the Duchy's land!!

But now, finally, the words of their experts are beginning to come true...

In that last battle, Robin used more than 60,000 fire explosion talismans, which wiped out his entire stockpile, and is now left with only a few hundred fire explosion talismans.

Robin had a difficult decision to make at this point...

He had already destroyed a large portion of the Duke Harris family's army within Duke Alton's lands, killing a few saints and hundreds of knights, and destroying a vast army of 300,000 soldiers while seizing most of their war horses and categorized armaments.

So if he now moves forward, even regardless of the talismans, there is a good chance that he will be able to exterminate what is left of the Harris family and take hold of the heart of the Duchy.

But... even rabbits bite when cornered.

To begin a *final* fight against the ancient Harris family, who are fighting for survival, and without any Fire Explosion Talismans... will inflict massive losses to the Burtons even if they win in the end.

This conquest is for the sake of benefits and influence and is not a matter of life or death for the Burtons, so the victory in this way is not needed, it will be a loss actually...

And indeed, in the end, Robin made up his mind and stopped any advancing after that point...

But the battles did not stop.

Due to the rapid advance, the three armies only cared about the forces of the major families and ignored the smaller subordinate families, and ignored the rebellions of the mortals, simply letting everything burn behind them…

So, after another week of fortifications along the front with what was left of the Duchy of Harris, Robin commanded to look back a little and begin to deal with the locals and sub-families.

... an announcement was made for everyone in the Duchy, especially for those who control more than 50 men under them

Its content that the Burtons didn't come here to destroy but to build, not to steal but to enrich, and that they don't want to hurt anyone unnecessarily... if they submitted to their new rulers, their position and their family and follower will be saved, if not, they will either be exterminated or sent to be sold as slaves.

As for the benefits offered by Rubin to the sub-families, they were extremely generous that even their Duke didn't give them, much less an invader!

and most of them already heard about what the Burtons had done in the lands they had taken from Dolivar and the extent of the renaissance they had brought about to the locals there, so they know this announcement was no joke.

That's why many of them submitted without a fight.

As for those who wanted victory or death, the Wind legion intelligence did what they have to do with them... It can be said that the slaves market in Jura City has lately become the most crowded market in the entire Black Sun kingdom.

these internal matters and the attempt to subjugate the lands went smoothly for the Burtons, but it provoked the ire of Duke Harris, who considered it an insult to his existence, and that the Burton family had already considered these lands their own!

But it was also good news... that the invasion has now stopped.

The other two Lying Water dukes on the border also breathed a sigh of relief, at last, they were afraid that the newcomer might try to support his comrades against them and seal one of the fronts first...

But thank the heavens that the Burtons were stupid enough to open another front and keep themselves busy there

Now that the three fronts have finally stopped, it's time to coordinate a counterattack to push them back!

But the period of dreams and short rest was quickly over...

The Altons' and Bradleys' armies began to move again, using tens of thousands of talismans to slash their way forward like a hot knife in a cheese block.

Finally, the two dukes received the level 6 Fire explosion talismans that the Burtons Rune Masters have been working on for a whole month

And because the Rune masters didn't have to make Level 10 Fire explosion talismans this time, the total they made during the month amounted to 140,000 6th Level Fire explosion talismans.

and 70,000 Fire explosion talismans were sent to each duke, which is approximately The same number they had when the war started!

And after coordination between the two of them, another wave of invasion began against their oblivious enemy.
