The Witcher – Uchiha Madara!

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 - The Battle Between the South and the North 08.



[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]

Third Person POV

Northern kingdoms.

...

...

The force of the celebration finally began to wane as the northern troops started reorganizing, waiting to see what the Nilfgaardian army's response would be. This time, the Nilfgaardians were not in a very favorable position.

Thrones convened a post-battle meeting, gathering all the main members of the army once again.

"..." Thorne stood beside the general, watching as member after member of the council entered the chamber.

As always, the room was composed of the triad of groups supporting the North: the King of Sodden himself with his nobles; from Temeria, General Edmar Kaelen and other commanders; and finally, the chapter of mages, represented by Vilgefortz of Roggeveen, Tissaia de Vries, Hen Gedymdeith, and Artaud Terranova.

Once everyone was seated and their attention was focused on him, Thrones began. "Now that we are all here, we can begin. As you already know, we had a resounding victory. Now I want to consider how our enemies might respond..." he said.

"That Madara Uchiha... where is he?" Hen Gedymdeith, the eldest of the mages, asked curiously, as the others also turned to Thorne with inquisitive looks.

"Madara is not under my command or anyone else's, so he will act only during the next battle," Thorne stated.

"And can we trust him? After all, he doesn't seem to have any oath to our cause, and I've heard he fled from Cintra," Vilgefortz of Roggeveen commented in a neutral tone, questioning the young king.

"You speak as if he could do anything about Cintra after the kingdom fell..." Tissaia de Vries replied to her colleague with a narrow gaze.

"Even so, Vilgefortz is right," Artaud Terranova added.

"Still, I do not see Madara Uchiha as an enemy but as a long-standing ally. After all, he has helped me greatly in the past," Thrones said.

"Could you tell us what he is? I'm very interested in ancient legends, and his banner is described as a symbol of the past!" Hen Gedymdeith exclaimed enthusiastically. He was a scholar of ancient legends and races, having even published a book on the subject. The Uchiha banner was not unfamiliar to him, and when he saw it on the battlefield, he had been fascinated.

"I also know of the Uchiha clan..." Vilgefortz spoke this time, drawing curious looks from the others.

"You know of the past then. They existed a long time ago, according to my studies, but were exterminated..." the old mage responded to Vilgefortz.

The others were also curious about this Uchiha clan they were referring to, but they couldn't dwell too long on this topic, as they needed to address the war's pressing matters.

"I used magic to observe the Nilfgaardian army. The explosion that struck their command center injured their generals, but none were killed, though they are gravely wounded," Tissaia said as she shifted in her seat, her curiosity about Madara lingering.

"That's good... we'll have some advantage over those southern fools, for now," the Temerian general commented.

"Still, I believe they will try to attack us with everything they have this time..." Thorne remarked.

"Then we must be prepared for the final confrontation, my king," a subject said.

"Yes... Regarding the South... Madara told me he would investigate and mentioned that our forces there are likely lost. A Nilfgaardian reinforcement is probably on its way here as we speak," Thorne explained.

"Then we must also await our reinforcements. Temeria is bringing another army here at this very moment," the general said firmly. This was his chance to take control of the entire army, as Temeria's contribution to the war would now be greater than anyone else's. As a patriot, he wanted to dedicate the battle directly to King Foltest.

"It doesn't matter for now... Let's just fortify our forces and wait for the enemy to arrive. Or, since the battle was so easily won and a general injured, they might hesitate while their leaders deliberate," Thrones concluded.

"About the problem in the North... could there be an enemy where the troops are disappearing?" a Temerian noble asked, referring to the area where Madara faced the Chakra user.

"My sorceress, Yennefer, managed to survive and said the threat was neutralized, though she did not provide many details," Tissaia said.

"Speaking of which, Tissaia, I need you to pull all your mages from the kingdom who are searching for the Witcher. Madara said he would handle this, and I have no doubt he will," Thorne said as she appeared thoughtful for a moment before nodding.

"You trust that Madara a great deal, King Thorne. You do realize he has the Princess of Cintra, don't you? She is a key piece for us; we need him to hand the girl over," Vilgefortz stated, his words causing a palpable division in the atmosphere.

"That's true… then he must indeed do so. After all, the princess is essential for us to reclaim Cintra!" the general demanded upon hearing this.

"I won't ask him for anything. We owe him, in case you haven't realized, and trust me, you do not want to make him your enemy," Thorne said, his tone laced with anger directed at the general.

"The princess is essential, King of Sodden. You should request this of him. With her, we can secure the North in our grasp. Don't you agree, Tissaia?" Artaud Terranova added, seeking to intensify the pressure on King Thrones, who stood as the sole advocate for not requesting anything from Madara, fully aware that doing so would likely lead to disastrous consequences.

"I… believe we cannot do that. The boy has been a crucial ally, and forcing him into something now is like placing a sword at our own backs," Tissaia replied. It wasn't out of fondness for Madara but an understanding of his dangerous potential.

"Let's leave this matter for later. For now, let's stay focused on the war against Nilfgaard," Vilgefortz concluded, though his mind was clearly working on a plan to deal with Madara.

The discussions resumed, focusing on strategies for handling Nilfgaard as they prepared for an all-out confrontation, all the while anticipating the arrival of Nilfgaardian reinforcements.

It was after half an hour that the meeting finally concluded. As the council members began leaving the tent, a voice called out:

"Tissaia." It was Vilgefortz, addressing the rector of Aretuza. She turned to look back as Vilgefortz approached her, standing silently, waiting for him to continue.

"I know you may not like me, Tissaia, but hear me out. We have the chance to finally seize the Princess of Cintra. Didn't Madara kill several of your mages? This is your moment to take revenge," he said smoothly, ensuring no one else overheard their conversation.

Tissaia narrowed her eyes but replied firmly, "I know very well what happened, Vilgefortz. But that doesn't mean I'll jeopardize a war to satisfy your schemes. We have a common enemy at this moment."

"I'm not suggesting you undermine the war. We can act after it—once we're rid of the Nilfgaardians for good. What do you think?" he insisted.

She studied him for a moment without responding before finally saying, "I'm not sure I'm interested in this. For now, I'll focus on the war. We'll see about this later."

Tissaia brushed past Vilgefortz, leaving him behind. She knew that aligning with any side at that moment would benefit no one, so she remained neutral.

"Looks like I'll have to act on my own," Vilgefortz murmured to himself, watching Tissaia walk away through the camp. Meanwhile, the other nobles exited the command tent, each heading off to carry out the orders that had been established and to relay them to their men.

In the Nilfgaardian camp, things were dire. Inside one of the main tents, the general lay on a blood-stained bed, surrounded by mages and healers. His face was twisted in pain as he screamed:

"I want you to treat me as quickly as possible and stop this damn pain!" he roared, as though addressing an army.

He had lost half an arm, torn off by the explosion that struck him. The healers were hastily working to stem the bleeding and treat him as best they could, assisted by the mages who cast spells to aid in the healing.

"It will be done, General," the men replied, continuing their efforts.

The situation was grim. Even with a war to fight, the general was severely wounded, and his fury was palpable. He knew exactly who was responsible for this and swore vengeance.

"Madara Uchiha... I swear I will kill him as soon as I return to the battlefield!" he exclaimed furiously.

His men remained silent as the healing process continued. They needed their leader back in command to guide the army, as the troops still required direction.

"Tell me, how far is the southern army?" he asked through gritted teeth, addressing one of his trusted men.

"One day away from arriving here, General," the man replied.

"Then I want everything ready in one day! We will launch an all-out attack. Since we are currently at a disadvantage against the North, with more of our forces arriving, we will crush them!" he roared.

Meanwhile, the mages continued casting spells to seal the general's wound, and the healers did everything they could to stabilize him.

In the Nilfgaardian camp, the name "Madara" echoed among the soldiers. Even the rank and file whispered his name, terrified by what they had witnessed. They described a young man who slaughtered everyone mercilessly, unstoppable. He was fast, strong, and, for many, something beyond human.

"That's the North's secret weapon," they muttered, visibly shaken.

But the rumors about Madara extended far beyond the main camp. Not far from there, a group of individuals intercepted a returning companion carrying a captured Nilfgaardian soldier. They threw him to the ground, the soldier staring at them in terror. Without hesitation, they began reading his mind.

After a few moments, one of them spoke in a cold tone, "It seems our target is finally here."

"Interesting. At last, some entertainment!" another replied.

"It was about time. At least we don't have to keep searching after this war."

"Should we launch a direct attack? Storm the camp and kill him now?" one of the companions asked.

"Why make it so easy? Why not wait until Nilfgaard launches their full-scale attack? While the North retaliates, we can appear in the middle of the battlefield and kill him, devastating both armies. Isn't it time for the people of this continent to fear us too? Wouldn't that be more entertaining?" another suggested with a malicious grin.

"I can't think of anything better than that. Alright, I like this plan," a third responded, smiling wickedly.

"Hey, you idiots! You're ignoring the fact that it's me who's supposed to face him. I need to avenge myself against him!" the one who had previously fought Madara interjected angrily, disrupting the conversation.

The group exchanged glances, some letting out mocking laughs.

"Fine, simmer your vengeance as much as you like. I enjoy debates, but I don't care for useless remarks," another quipped sarcastically.

Despite this, no one in the group truly intended to leave Madara solely to their vengeful companion. Everyone there hungered for the chance to face him, as though he were a trophy, perhaps the last Uchiha of the clan that had vanished centuries ago. The prospect of encountering him on the battlefield seemed to stir a deadly fascination in all of them.
