Chapter 368: Dragons, Empires, and Voids
In the Zero Magic World, the current situation was both chaotic and strangely orderly.
The chaos stemmed from the fact that the Kingdom of Albion had just allied with the Kingdom of Tristain to defeat the joint forces of the Kingdom of Germania and the Kingdom of Gallia.
On top of that, the Pope of Romalia publicly declared support for Albion to become the one and only sovereign nation on the continent.
He also unilaterally announced the revocation of Romalia’s status as a nation and declared the integration of the ’Brimir Church’ as the sole state religion under Albion’s banner.
These monumental geopolitical events had already stirred deep unrest and anxiety throughout the Halkeginia continent.
But then, waves of noble uprisings began to emerge, with high-ranking nobles leading minor ones in open rebellion.
This left King Wales, no longer under the control of the Ring of Andvari, with no time to be angry with Amatori Biba.
He could only rely on the help of two major figures—former King Joseph of Gallia and former Marshal Gramont of Tristain—to campaign across the land, quelling the noble rebellions one after another.
Just as the young King Wales had finally suppressed most of the uprisings—having barely spent any time with his new bride—Amatori Biba spread news of the so-called ’Windstone Cataclysm’.
He urged people across the continent to gather in the former capitals of their respective nations, where special airships would take them to Albion’s floating islands to escape the coming disaster.
This caused massive confusion among the already unsettled populace.
