Chapter 507 - Chapter 507: Chapter 475: Conquering the Continent (2/2)

“Clap, clap, clap, clap!”

Christine took the initiative to applaud.

“Let us celebrate the peace that is about to arrive.”

Soon, the negotiation room was thunderous with applause.

Even the people of the Seven Stars found the situation acceptable, only the envoys of Carnia and Vallere had ashen faces.

News of the end of the war spread like a spring breeze through every corner of the Cyart Kingdom, in the streets of cities, through the fields and hills of the countryside; people instinctively stopped their work.

“The war is over…”

Children laughed in their parents’ arms, the elderly’s eyes sparkled with hopeful tears, and young men and women embraced each other, as the peal of peace rang out in the town squares of city centers, proclaiming the dawn of a new era.

With the advent of peace, reconstruction work within the Cyart Kingdom and Rhea began quickly.

The glory of peace, like the first light of dawn, spread across the ancient and mysterious lands, bringing a temporary tranquility, but beneath the brilliant play of light and shadow, more complex and profound undercurrents were hidden.

The peace agreement, like a fragile magical barrier, temporarily walled off the smoke of large-scale conflicts; however, various factions had not truly laid down their arms, but had shifted to a more covert contest of strength.

The Extraordinary nobility mingled jovially at banquets, but behind the scenes, they fought for resources and power with oaths and secret alliances, attempting to secure advantageous positions in the new era that lay ahead.

Meanwhile, the heretics harbored ill intentions, using forbidden magic and ancient spells to attempt to manipulate the political landscape of certain areas and even to summon otherworldly gods to achieve their goals.

At the same time, among the people and aristocracy of the defeated nations, there were also groups dissatisfied with the current state of affairs.

Peace was like a fragile magic bubble, ready to burst at any moment due to internal contradictions and external shocks. Everyone in the Fischer family was aware of this fact.

In a magnificent underground hall, the flickering candlelight was resplendent, reflecting the faces of the members of the Fischer family.

Tonight, the members of the Fischer family had gathered not to celebrate victory but to hold another family meeting that would determine the future fate of their house.

Tonight’s family meeting was chaired by Darren, who slowly stood up, sweeping his gaze over every member of the family present. His voice was deep and strong:

“The public war has officially been declared over, but we are gathered here to discuss an important decision concerning the future of our Cyart family.”

“For a long time, our Fischer family has silently protected the land of the East Coast, but times are changing, and we must have a longer-term vision, a grander plan.”

As his words ended, the hall fell into a brief silence; members of the Fischer family looked at each other, quietly pondering what the plan about to be revealed might be.

“Our goal,”

Darren continued, his voice resolute and unwavering.

“Is to covertly control the nations across the continent, becoming the true power behind the throne of the Ouden Continent. We will use the power the Great Lord of the Lost has bestowed upon us, and our wisdom, wealth, and influence to weave a network of power that covers the entire continent, ensuring every nation and force is under our control.”

“Not just the Eastern countries, but infiltrating every nation on the Ouden Continent!”

At this statement, a murmur of whispers and astonishment swept through the hall.

“We can use our economic power through trade and investment to infiltrate the nations,” Christine suggested thoughtfully. “At the same time, the Blood Receivers of the Dawn Church can also work discreetly to ensure our will is executed.”

“But…” Felix took a deep breath, unable to suppress his worries, and said, “Won’t such actions provoke widespread resistance and conflict? We must act cautiously to avoid startling the snake in the grass.”

Darren nodded slightly, smiling in understanding of Felix’s concerns, and said, “Indeed, we must be careful in our actions, not to act too hastily.”

“But as long as we can skillfully use the resources at hand, maintain enough patience and wisdom, the Fischer family will eventually achieve this goal and become the most powerful entity on this continent!”

“The great Lord of the Lost shall descend upon His earthly kingdom!”
