After a brief moment of rethinking his current choice of action, Kingsley went to go sit back into a throne like chair that was prepared for him as he let Viktor take charge. The modern age may have taught him how to be a somewhat good lord but he had no experience in war while Viktor may be in the same situation as him, he was more suited for this situation after all he had the memories of past emperors guiding him.
Soon the five generals left the room to meet their men outside and got ready for the mission. If left to Kingsley, he would have preferred if they rested after all they all just went through a brutal battle but Viktor was their Emperor and he knew their strengths and weaknesses best.
"Hello Generals, this is Central command, please confirm if you can hear us" Viktor said in a tone that immediately made Kingsley remember a certain game he loved to play.
"This is General Haw, Team 01 is ready for deployment over" one of the generals replied
"Same here"
"Team 5 ready for action" the generals confirmed their status and soon Viktor gave the order to begin the mission
The live drone footage of each team gave the war room a good view of everything happening around the teams as they went on, passing by tree after tree to reach their destination. Each team was equipped with the standard weapons for Kingsley's army, a modified bow, a Maio blade and a Glock 17. Kingsley didn't feel the need to add more since they didn't need it, the rest were either protective gear or necessary tools they may need like night vision goggles in case they stay out late, flare guns to mark their location etc.
"Okay then, all teams commence mission, remember the order is to make them submit if possible and if not attack depending on their attitude towards us" Viktor said as the screens showed the teams rushing through the forest at speeds impossible for a normal human.
If he didn't know that the dots moving on the screen were demon goblins, he would have thought that someone had managed to create some kind of magic off-road bike in this world since the speed was abnormal.

General Haw
".... If not attack depending on their attitude towards us" Lord Viktor's words resounded in my mind
"We will try our best" I replied
As I said so, I beckoned my squad as we immediately started making our way through the forest. Guiding us was the magic screen that was showing before me, it showed me a map of the area around me and from what I have figured out so far, I am the blue dot on the map and the red dot is my destination.
My entire body was adorned with weapons or tools of all kinds that I had absolutely no idea how to use but Lord Viktor and His Majesty had said to trust my instincts so that is all I have done so far. As a former chief, I could tell the reason behind the decisions made by the Lords but I couldn't understand why they would send a team of unprepared warriors into battle.
I know that every goblin capable of fighting is born with complete techniques or something similar to that, that helps them learn to fight quickly but even then, I have never sent a new goblin general or warrior straight into battle or to hunt without at least teaching him/her how to use their abilities and weapons.
Goblins may have a reputation of being vile and dumb but there is a reason we are the most abundant race in the entire continent. We reproduce fast but even more so, we protect our younger ones and train them before they go out. Without these necessary steps, goblins would have gone extinct long ago after all every race hates us just like how we hate the Orcs.
Yet the Lords had sent out teams that had no real training. I may not understand what was going on in their heads but I do know that this was highly irresponsible. The initial battle had been okay since that was just an all out war meaning that our higher abilities mattered but in such an attack, anything could go wrong.
"Metal 01… sorry, Generals... be advised, you have left my range of influence. You are now on your own" his majesty's voice sounded in my mind
For some reason, his majesty's tone suggested that he was enjoying this event. This made me stop and turn back to my men but all I saw were faces that were prepared to burn the world and turning to look at the puddle below me, I could see such an expression on my face. It seems our lord's enjoyment is our pride.
*Nods*
A nod of acknowledgement was immediately shared amongst us and immediately I increased the pace at which the team moved. For the majesty, we shall win all.

Third POV
As the teams left Kingsley's sphere of influence, they all suddenly increased their pace which meant an overall increase in speed. On the map, Kingsley could see the dots that represented each team gain more speed at an alarming pace. At first, Kingsley thought the drones wouldn't be able to keep up but thankfully, they were all modified to reach near light-speed if needed so keeping up with them wasn't that difficult for the drones.
"My Lord, there are a few creatures a few meters away from us, should we engage to kill or to capture" a general's voice resounded throughout the room
"Does anyone have a good view of the creatures in question?" Viktor asked the drone team
"Coming up now" one of them answered as a video feed of some cattle-like creatures feeding on grass.
The creature looked like a cross between a cow, a horse and an sheep. It had huge sheep horns that formed a neat coil and was incredibly big, blessed with extremely fluffy fur and a long tail. The creature was just bizarre in Kingsley's books but at the same time, it looked incredibly majestic, Kingsley just couldn't tell how it was making such a bizarre combination look good.
"My Lord?" Viktor's voice woke him up from his admiration
