Chris' POV:
The Valtours were a threat, one that needed to be eradicated swiftly, decisively, and without mercy. Christiana had presented me with the details I requested. Her report was thorough, meticulous, and showed just how deep the corruption ran within the family's ranks. Every page of the document held evidence of treason, bribery, and a willingness to subvert the very laws that upheld our empire.
As I read through the data, I couldn't help but admire my daughter's ability to uncover the hidden filth that had been festering beneath the surface of the empire. Her loyalty was unwavering, and her drive to protect the Blackwood name was unmatched. But now, it was time to show her the full extent of my support.
"Father, I've gathered everything," Christiana said, standing before me. "This is the full breakdown of their operations, their illegal dealings, and their connections to the non-Blackwood factions. Their plans to infiltrate our government and our military are clear. But this isn't just about them—it's about sending a message. We cannot allow anyone to challenge the Blackwood Empire."
I looked at the detailed report she had prepared for me. It was a mixture of official documents, intercepted communications, and personal testimonies from defectors within the Valtour network. The information was damning, each piece of evidence more horrifying than the last. They had been planning to destabilize our empire from the inside, using their influence to manipulate trade, politics, and military strategy. This was treason of the highest order.
"You've done well, Christiana," I said, my voice steady. "Now, we'll make sure that the Valtours never have the chance to betray us again. I'm going to support you with everything we have. The Black Axe Men will deal with this, but not just a few. I'm sending all of them."
Christiana's eyes widened slightly. "All of them?"
"Yes. Every single one," I said, turning my attention to the full-scale plan. "I will not let this go unanswered. We'll send 100 million Black Axe Men to deal with the Valtours and any who dare side with them. They will be wiped off the map. Completely."
The number was staggering, but I knew it was necessary. The Black Axe Men were more than just soldiers—they were the deadliest, most loyal force in the Empire. If anyone was capable of sending a message of utter destruction, it was them.
"I'll have the details of the deployment ready immediately, Father," Christiana replied, her voice filled with determination. "We'll ensure that no one escapes this. Not a single soul."

The Black Axe Men Deployment Breakdown:
1. Total Force:
100 Million Black Axe Men: These elite soldiers would form the backbone of the operation, their loyalty and efficiency unmatched.
Each soldier was trained in combat, intelligence gathering, and psychological warfare, making them an unstoppable force capable of overwhelming any resistance.
2. Vehicles:
10,000 Armored Military Vehicles: These vehicles, built to withstand direct hits from artillery and gunfire, would serve as the mobile force for the operation. They would deploy across key locations, ensuring that every point of the Valtours' influence was hit simultaneously.
5,000 Tanks: These heavily armored machines would provide firepower support, capable of demolishing even the most fortified structures.
20,000 Armored Transport Vehicles (APCs): Used to transport soldiers and equipment, ensuring that every member of the Black Axe Men could reach their target quickly and efficiently.
3. Weapons:
500,000 Firearms: From pistols to sniper rifles, every soldier would be armed with the latest Blackwood weaponry. Precision was key, and no shot would be wasted.
100,000 Heavy Artillery: For destruction on a larger scale, these cannons would tear down buildings, military fortifications, and any resistance that might come in the way.
50,000 Explosives: Strategic placement of bombs would ensure complete demolition of the Valtours' network, leaving no trace behind.
20,000 Specialized Drones: Equipped with surveillance and targeting systems, these drones would help monitor the operation and provide real-time data to ensure every move was calculated.
4. Special Forces:
10,000 Elite Assassins: These covert operatives would infiltrate the Valtours' inner circle, removing key figures quietly and without notice. Their presence would ensure that the family's leadership structure was eradicated without a trace.
5,000 Saboteurs: Tasked with disabling any communication or security systems, ensuring that the Valtours and their allies couldn't send out any distress signals or escape.
5. Military Strategy:
The operation would be broken into multiple waves, targeting key locations first:
The Valtour Family Estate: To be hit hard and fast, ensuring that no one escapes.
Key Military Installations: Locations where the Valtours had influence, to be seized and destroyed within hours.
Trade Routes: Strategic roads, ports, and border crossings controlled by the Valtours, cut off to prevent any escape or external support.
6. Timing:
24-Hour Window: The operation would begin at midnight, under the cover of darkness. The lockdown would be enforced strictly across all borders, and no one would be allowed to escape or intervene. The timing would ensure maximum surprise, with the Black Axe Men moving swiftly to neutralize any threats.

"This is what we're dealing with," Christiana said, spreading the final details of the plan before me. "Every resource we have will be used to ensure that the Valtours never threaten us again. There will be no escape, no mercy."
I nodded, my gaze focused on the plan. I knew that the execution of this operation would be brutal, but it was necessary. "Good. Let's make sure they never forget the price of betrayal. You've done well, Christiana. Now, let's make sure the Empire sees our strength."
She gave me a nod of approval, her expression resolute. "It will be done."
With that, the final preparations began. Every soldier, every vehicle, every weapon was put into place, ready to move with the precision that only the Black Axe Men could execute. The Valtours' days were numbered, and with this operation, the Blackwood Empire's strength would be unmistakable. There would be no question of who ruled these lands.
"No mercy," I muttered under my breath. "Not for traitors."
