Chapter 41: Plot of the Veritas Magic Tower 2

The president of the Volga Republic.

Two people were seated facing each other in the office of the official residence with a red flag having two axes symbolizing the republic aspect.

One was a party leading the revolution, the current president of the republic, Vladimir Rekov and the other side was a Dark Elf woman, Sylvia Aratra, the second chief of Volga Intelligence.

“So, what you are saying is that there are no ‘Earth’s Tears’ in the Volga kingdom?”

With a bursting accent, Sylvia replied,

“Yes, sir.”

“Uhm, then about the princess Reina?”

“The watcher’s on the princess reports say that princess Reina doesn’t have them either.”

The Earth’s Tears were the treasures passed down to the Volga’s royal family from generation to generation, with the legend that rains started to pour down in the drought-prone areas of Rhodesia during the time of the great drought.

Known to be in the hands of the royal family, but has never been stated to be real, however, each time a large scale natural disaster occurs in the kingdom, it is said to appear and resolve the issue and disappear.

In the heads of the people, it was considered to be the ‘God’s tears’ which prevented the natural disaster, however, some people of Volga had different opinions.

The Earth’s Tears were the key to unlocking one of their most long-sought desire.

Thus they all had joined the Republican Revolution in order to obtain the key and eventually dominated the palace.

But, no matter how much and how clearly they searched the palace, they weren’t able to find it or anything that seemed similar to that object.

This was why, in the beginning, they thought if the exiled royal family had taken them.

They had placed a spy, but neither the queen nor the princess had it.

Looking back into the country for a decade, they looked for everything and anything that was related to the royal family and their estates.

But that too… the Earth’s Tears were nowhere to be found.

“If the Earth’s Tears were in the Southern Continent?”

“That isn’t it. High Elf Erness said that it certainly exists in the Rhodesian continent.”

“Uhm. This is troublesome.”
