In the end this all happen because he had taken the capital and had taken it in such a swift manner that most of the generals on the border, regardless of their loyalties or thoughts, could not have the time to react

He had taken the city in only four days. That is enough for people to not doubt his military expertise ever again

That is a good reputation to capitalize on when he is back in the court. Aero had always enjoyed massive popularity in the military faction.

But people do not know the true story. Veranis had fallen the moment he had kill the King of Veranis and started marching toward it.

After all, he had spent almost a year inside the capital city of Veranis and had strengthened his spy network all over the capital city. 

People must have expected death when he come to the capital city, that he had to fight bitterly for it and sacrifice a lot of his soldiers to take the city as fast as he did. 

the truth was, the moment he arrived at the capital city, he only sends a few message to his spy in the inside and manage to open the city gates.

He stormed it and in four days, he had taken the capital city and the marched out from the city and ride toward the holy City!

The fourth day was the most anticlimactic battle that Aero ever had the chance to experience since most of the people defending the capital city got the news that Gerad establishes itself in the south and Tian in the north

Like an unstoppable storm, Aero had change the situation of the war from being in a defensive position to an attacking position and now, Aero is not satisfied just by taking Veranis, he even wanted to save Duvar and keep it under the Empire

At least that is how appears for the people in the capital. 

Aero did not see it for himself but he had read the report that when it was announced that he had won in the border and the news that he was framed by the enemy of the Empire, the people cheers on him 

And when they heard their Chancellor march forward toward Veranis and take it, there were many hit blooded youths that formed a knight militia and decided to join the army

These knight militias must not be underestimated since these people are powerful warriors and some of them are even holy guardians of the temple.

In the time that Aero and George rule together, they created a vision, an enduring dream that continue even after his death

In the rise of the kingdom of Vanheim, there was a collective dream that Aero and George had also given to the people of Vanheim. 

George promised in the day that he shows his intent to rule, that his kingdom would one day unify the whole continent

That was his vision, a vison that united the people of the kingdom, and give them a sense of pride to their kingdom

When George return from exile, Aero had helped him won a great battle in Coro, and George could rise up using that reputation to become one of the most celebrated rulers in Vanheim history.

He expanded the land, reform the kingdom laws, politics, legal and economic policies, and bring a great boom of prosperity among the people

George successful move had made the people feel hopeful and prideful. 

The people believe that when they have forced the nobles, the priest and seers, the detractors of the royal family to invite back the King was the right choice.

George become a wise king in the hearts of the people. The people likes it when they live in peace, in prosperity, where they do not have to worry about where their next meal would come, where they should sleep at night and whether they would live tomorrow

War is frequent after the victory in Coro but each war had brought the kingdom benefits and profit that war itself become profitable.

Aero had stopped the war frenzy to become so oversized that it would consume itself and advice caution and stability.

Niovar problem is one of the example where Aero was right in his choice.

But nonetheless, the dream had become even more real to the people of Vanheim. 

This dream was strengthened each time Vanheim grab a victory. 

As the empire expands and become stronger, this dream is no longer just a nice sounding slogan to encourage the people, it has become a conviction.

Many of the people of Vanheim walk with pride, their back straight as they believed themselves to be a citizen of a great empire that would one day unify the continent and become the hegemon of the world, bringing peace everlasting and prosperity that have never been seen before in the history of this continent.

And now Aero had once again done the impossible. The Chancellor had rarely gone into the battlefield since the battle in Coro. He had been in battle but never against the enemies of Vanheim after that battle

Aero battle in the front gate of the capital city of Veva is still remembered by many. But that was not a battle where he was leading an army

This time however, Aero once again appear in the battlefield, leading another army of Vanheim to victory.

To the people, this is like the golden age of King George rise. Once again the Chancellor had saved the nation

To the people, Aero had marched toward Veranis not only top punish the Veranisian for breaking the alliance, it was also to fulfill the dream that every single citizen of Vanheim believes

So, when they heard that Veranis was conquered, their capital city occupied, their euphoria hit fever high. 

people were celebrating in the streets, chanting his name and make sacrifice to the goddess Athena and Zeus.

And then when they heard that he did not stop and now marching toward the cities of the western region of Veranis to go to Duvar, the people could not help but feel that dream is so close that they could taste it

The people of the Empire is not like the people of the kingdom of Vanheim in the past. They know the significance if Aero could hold back the Veva invasion of Duvar

If Aero could force the forces of Veva to retreat and maintain their hold in Duvar, then Vanheim now have a straight route to the west

And when that happens, then a westward expansion is inevitable in the near future. Even though some people know that this would lead to the greatest war this continent would ever see, the people was excited.

Because, this is the chance for Vanheim to truly lord over the world. They all believed that Aero would be able to do it, to open the gate toward the west

If its anyone else, they might think that the strategist or the general leading such an army is a reckless one as he keeps marching forward. 

Duvar is a small kingdom compared to Veranis. It would not make sense to expend so much effort to Duvar. 

It would be better to let Duvar go and fortify the position of Veranis and calm the four corners of the borders of the Empire and let go of Duvar

They could take Duvar back when the Empire has stabilized. 

But Aero had a different opinion. And Eric also had a different opinion.

Aero did not mind losing Duvar. But even though he did not mind losing it, if he could stop the fall of Duvar to another power, why would he not do it?

And that is what the opportunity had presented to him after his fast takedown of the capital of Veranis.

Duvar is very important because it sat on the center of the continent. There are mountains passes that is very easy to defend but very hard to attack.

And it connects the west and the east. There is many other important reason why Duvar is a very important kingdom other than simply that it sat on the middle center of the continent region as it is also a holy capital for the Seven Celestials.

It is where all the Seven Celestials of Olympus was represented with their large temple and offering places

Each year, many devotees would come there to seek the blessing of their Gods

Aero would not let Duvar go if he could help it. And he now had just saved some time by easily taking the capital.

Aero had contemplated it when he is in the throne room of Veranis.
