Book 4: Chapter 35
** Queen of the Night – Strategy Conference Room **
The preparations on the side of the Lev Magic Empire were complete. They had completed the analysis on the Kruvan Holy Kingdom, the Saint Knight Kingdom, and the Keith Gran Federation.
The Saint Knight Kingdom was offering support under the reasons “A knight does not abandon his neighbor” and “Pride”. They do not seem to be seeking a clear compensation.
While expressing support, Keith Gran Federation did not give any reason for their decision, but the Empire decided to welcome the representative from Keith Gran in order to keep Kruvan in check. The representative was waiting in the waiting room.
Two of the finest chairs inside the Queen of the Night were prepared for the meeting – they had no way of knowing that Lark had been napping on those chairs, though. The Emperor sat on one, while the other was prepared for the former Holy King.
In addition to the senior statesmen, the Emperor prepared five soldiers with “Heroic Gear”, which looked like an unconventional metal equipment reminiscent of an ancient work of art. On a side note, these Heroic Gears were inoperable due to unknown reasons, so it was prepared only as a bluff. The Heroic Gears which are operable, were used actively in the front lines.
「——From Kruvan Holy Kingdom, Duke Grenjido and Earl Sillys have arrived.」
「Umu.」the Emperor nodded.
All of it was prepared for this negotiation.
