TEASER CHAPTER 8 PART 14
Victor and Mena in a
carriage.
While facing each
other in the rickety carriage, the two were exchanging their opinions about the
political enemy who had just appeared.
"Master, he knows
about Nozomu-sama..."
"'I think we can
assume that he has a rough grasp of information."
Victor believed that
Egrod had some information about Nozomu Bountis and the secret agreement with
the Waziart Household of the Dizzard Empire.
This information had
originally been hinted at to some extent by Madam Parline.
"But he was not
aware that the boy was a dragonslayer. Because that White Dragon Chief was also
involved in the concealment of this fact."
Therefore, Victor was
not perturbed.
He already received
approval from his King for the establishment of conditional diplomatic
relations with the Dizzard Empire, and for Egrod, who was originally a member
of Arcazam rejectionist faction, this Dizzard Empire was as good as hostile
territory. It would be difficult to get a collaborator easily.
As for Nozomu, he was
backed by the White Dragon Chief.
Furthermore, Madam
Parline also showed a certain amount of respect for Nozomu, so Victor thought
that no matter how much Egrode wanted to make a fuss, he could not do much.
"But the fact
that Egrod has moved on his own should mean that he has some kind of
countermeasure against us."
"I know. We
should also be careful about his right-hand man."
While saying so,
Victor remembered the bewitching woman who was Egrod's right-hand man.
Being the second in
command of a political enemy, Victor has also been gathering information about
Mekria, but all of his investigations ended up empty.
As the person behind
the revival of the Fabran family in the last few years, Mekria had been a
headache for Victor.
"Egrod's ultimate
goal is to abolish Solminati Academy, or at least to sever the relationship
between Forsina and Arcazam. Because we are placing no small burden on our
country to maintain this academy and city."
A swift response to
the Great Invasion. And the construction of Ardazam. All of them were led by
the Forsina Kingdom, which was the first to speak out and lead the way.
At the same time, the
burden they have paid for it was by no means light.
Even though the
country did not suffer any damage from the great invasion, it was fair to say that
the country was in a very tight economic situation.
"However, thanks
to this, the Kingdom of Forsina's voice is second to none. The next most
influential nation is the Cremazone Empire, but it is also the most
oppositional because it is backed by military power."
The Cremazone Empire
is a large country bordering the southern part of the Forsina Kingdom, and its
military power alone exceeds that of the Forsina Kingdom.
As a threat both
militarily and economically, this empire has been a headache for the Forsina
Kingdom, along with the Dizzard Empire.
The Cremazone Empire
was founded by a dragon slayer, and because of this, it has a high military
orientation and desire to invade.
