Chapter 1169
Siegfried arrived at the Marchioni Empire’s command center and sat in on the ongoing strategy meeting.
Unsurprisingly, the situation looked extremely favorable for the imperial army.
“Thanks to the hundreds of thousands of powerful Adventurers enlisting, our forces are stronger than ever, Your Imperial Majesty. It is only a matter of time before the war ends in our victory,” Hansen reported proudly.
“I see,” Siegfried replied dryly. Then, he asked, “I guess there’s not much for me to do?”
“Yes, sire. Even though the infiltration operation failed, our imperial army is stronger than ever. Therefore, I believe Your Imperial Majesty can afford to take a break.”
“Got it. Then, shall we call it a day?” Siegfried said. Then, he looked around the meeting room and adjourned the meeting, “Please focus on your respective assignments. I will remain on standby and join whenever I am needed. Until then, I will go hunt some exotic beasts living on this planet to pass the time.”
With that, Siegfried left the command center to hunt the native creatures on the Coral Planet—at least, that was what he wanted them to believe.
The Marchioni Empire’s command center was no different from the enemy camp now, so it was highly likely that intelligence agents were watching his every move and listening to every word he uttered.
Thus, he used the hunting trip as an excuse to venture into the jungle and slip away unnoticed.
After entering deep inside the Coral territory, he transformed into Mindrius and went to see Chancellor Maximus.
“M-My god... that happened...?”
Maximus was visibly shaken when Siegfried told him about how the Marchioni Empire had decided to wipe out the dragons.
