Supper was the best comfort for a day’s exhaustion.

The two dealt with the crayfish in front of them seriously with occasional conversations and clinks of glass. It was not a very sweet moment, but it was still blissful.

“Say, if Amy were to come downstairs now, and see that we’re having supper behind her back again, would she be angry?” Irina asked Mag with a smile as she sucked on her thumb.

“Maybe. She would be super fierce.” Mag nodded at Irina with a smile. “But she’s still growing up, and it’s not good for her to have supper.”

“Are you going to Rodu with her the day after tomorrow?” Irina asked after biting into the mutton kebab.

“I won’t be going. With Krassu’s capabilities and his status in the Roth Empire, Amy will definitely be safe.” Mag shook his head. He added, “There would be a Delicacy Extravaganza in Chaos City three days later. I’ve already promised the president of the Food Association that I would attend.”

“Mm-hmm.” Irina nodded. Krassu was just like a pastor in the Roth Empire’s world of magic casters. By inviting Krassu back to host the Magic Caster Tournament this time, Andre had to be thinking of pulling Krassu over to his side. Therefore, Krassu would not be in danger. “Didn’t anyone from the Roth Empire look for you today?”

“Not a shadow in sight.” Mag shook his head. “Besides, they most probably don’t know where to look for me.”

“True. A powerhouse without any care is the scariest.” Irina smiled with a nod.

“Compared to that, I actually am more worried about where the other half of the Great Old One is sealed. Since the Great Old One at the Thunderstorm Mountains could break out of its seal, the remaining half most probably could too.” Mag put his glass down with a serious expression.

“The powerhouses from the various races had come to a common consensus at the celebration party held in the city lord’s castle. Everyone would check out their territory for possible tracks of the Great Old Ones. Once there is a discovery, the other races will be informed immediately,” Irina said.

“I’m just afraid that they would be sealed at a deserted place or somewhere dangerous, or even in the midst of the vast ocean. Lantisde used to be a vast piece of land 10,000 years ago.” Mag was not very optimistic about the situation.ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ Noᴠelꜰire

“If I can get a full grasp of the Holy Light, I might be able to purify them immediately,” Irina said thoughtfully.

“Before that, the various races of the Norland Continent will still have to join hands to deal with the situation. At least during the peace talks a few days later, renewing the peace treaty will be the first step.”

“The Roth Empire will never agree to it. They have the ability to fight the dragons, but their territory is almost the same as the goblins’.”

“Actually, I also agree that the various races should have their territories redistributed. The peace treaty 100 years ago divided the land based on capabilities. However, the capabilities of the various tribes were determined by a war that swept across the entire Norland Continent.

“100 years have passed, and the strength of the various races has increased or decreased, becoming completely different from what it used to be. The Roth Empire’s territory was the smallest out of all the races, and most of the land was frozen, and unable to be used for farming. This was not advantageous for the survival and development of humans.”

“You want to start a war?” Irina was stunned.

“No. I want to discard the war, and put things out openly on the negotiation table, and have the various races reshuffled based on their strength. After that, use the land not yet developed by the various races, and redraw the territorial boundaries based on strength.

“The dragons occupy Dragon Islands. However, the land on Dragon Islands left undeveloped is many folds wider than the Roth Empire’s. Also, the orcs’ southwestern territory was also left undeveloped. There are vast areas of land like that.

“If some of these lands can be given to the Roth Empire, the Roth Empire will be able to find a place for their citizens who have nowhere to go.”

“Do you really think Andre would be satisfied with this amount of land? Besides, the other races would probably be unable to accept it.” Irina did not agree with Mag.

“I know Andre’s ambitious, and I know the other races would definitely not accept giving up their land. However, if Andre wanted to go to war without justification, he would not be able to cause the entire Norland Continent to be embroiled in a racial war. This would be a lethal blow to his plans.” Mag smiled. “Although I am no longer a general at the Roth Empire, I still have some influence.”

Irina’s eyes lit up as she sunk deep in thought.

“If we can continue with another 100 years of peace, we just need to work hard to dispel all bad feelings between the races, and make the entire Norland Continent just like Chaos City, with the various races living in harmony and equality. That would be able to solve any possibility of a racial war happening,” Mag said.

“Although that does not sound like an easy task, at least Chaos City proved this to be possible.” Irina nodded and looked at Mag with admiration.

“Scram! All of you, get out!!!”

Expensive tea sets and porcelain were strewn all over the floor. The bedroom was a mess, and a few maids ran out of the room in horror.

The two 10th-tier knights guarding by the door exchanged glances, and closed the door reluctantly.

Josh, whose hair was unkempt, leaned against the wall as he slowly slid down to the floor. He picked up the flask of wine, and poured the liquid into his eyes as he stared blankly into space.

His left ear had been cleanly shaven off, making his handsome face look a little strange.

“Alex! Why are you able to get back up time and again…” Josh clenched his fists tightly, and his nails dug into his flesh as he howled like a wild beast.

It had been two days since he returned from Chaos City, but he had never been able to walk out of the trauma of the sword.

He had lost an ear, his dignity, and the courage to face Alex head-on.

That line “As for your life, I will claim it one day” echoed in his mind like a curse. The slight breeze outside would make him nervous, and he would be unable to fall asleep without getting drunk.

However, for the past two days, even making himself drunk had become so difficult.

Alex attracted the heavenly lightning to strike the devil, used his flying sword to kill Westin, and took Josh’s ear. That had left an indelible mark in his heart.

“Become my servant. I shall bestow you with the powerful strength passed down from ancient times. I’ll allow you to kill all your enemies, and those who were disloyal to you shall all fall into a bottomless hell…” An enchanting voice sounded inside him.

Josh looked at the wooden box he hid under his bed, and his eyes glimmered.

“Josh is done for. Alex has actually given me a big help.” In the first prince’s mansion, Sean stood in the hall in his armor as he looked out towards the south. He smiled. A pile of torn bits of a letter beside his feet was blown away by a gust of wind.

What happened to Josh at Chaos City did not escape his ears. For the past two days, Josh had been shut inside his room, and his hysteria was also within his control.

The path towards power had never seemed so smooth..
