Chapter 466 (1/2)
Chapter 466: Alliance Formation 3
From the titan Guild's point of view, the episode of the Lich King had to last longer without anyone clearing it in order for them to compete with the Lotus
The longer their advantage of being in the Southwest far from the dark forces last, the better would be their scope for expansion
Because of that, Shakran had held aout an immediate answer
It was because the request seemed a bit silly and he had to be sure
“So master The Lotus wants to clear the episode quickly in order to overcoes?”
“Yeah It looks like they are facing quite a probleions of Darkness”
At that word from Shakran, Ceilron opened his mouth to speak with a puzzled look
“Hmm, but after the war between the Lotus and Elrika, it seedom of Darkness”
Shakran shook his head
“That looks like it”
“Then why is Lotus trying to change their oal?”
This time it was Emily who answered instead of Shakran
“Lotus was able to easily take over the Elrika Kingdom because of a special quest”
“Huh?”
“I looked into the video from the start to the end and analyzed it It was obvious that someone from Elrika has helped Lotus”
When Eht that there was a buggy play involved with Ian
Ian's siege orders made no sense
However, after thoroughly analyzing the video several times, she was able to find a pattern
The troops of the Elrika were using obvious strategies in obvious situations
Ian's play wasn't the buggy one, but the royal defense's AI was so stupid that it was at a bug level
However, when she contacted LB, they just said that there wasn't a bug, so Emily determined that the stupid AI actions were the effect of some special quest
The conversation between Emily and Ceilron continued
“Hmm… that could be”
“I' to look down on the power of Lotus, but I think that their current line up of users isn't the best of the power That is why Ian wants to flip the plate”
“Till the extent that he would have to disclose the facts about the unknown content?”
“Yeah The La the expansion of the Lotus, are the Kingdoms of Darkness which hold more power than the Elrika I'er tioal”
While Euild members of the titan were fixated on her
Emily took a sip of the cold water that was on the table and continued,
“On the other hand, in the Southwest region where our titan Guild is located, there isn't anything to do Although the Lotus ined, it is only a ap”
Ceilron smiled and asked Emily,
“So E is, if the situation is maintained, then our titan will be able to pre-empt the Empire content before the Lotus?”
Emily nodded and replied,
“Yes, that is it I think the proposal of Ian is smart”
Shakran as listening to the conversation between then, cut in with a low voice,
“Then Emily, do you think that I should reject the offer of Ian?”
“Well…”
Emily wasn't able to answer
And in a ain,
“That shouldn't be done, master”
“Why?”
“Even without our help, I feel like Ian can ”
“Lotus can get the Lich King without our help?”
Emily shook her head and reframed her words
“Of course, not right away At least in aeven without us”
“Huh…”
Eh of the potential of Ian
Therefore, she always assumed the worst-case scenario possible
“And then, that tiotiations will probably move to the Lotus”
“It sure will, unless we declare Empire status before that”
“Then is there anything crucial in our titan Guild that the Lotus Guild doesn't have?”
“…?”
In response to that question from Emily, Shakran was just confused
“So we have, that Lotus doesn't…?”
Emily answered with a smile,
“Conditions for the Eet about it already?”
“Ah…!”
“Even if the Lich King episode is cleared, and the Lotus does soain territory before us, they cannot become an Empire”
“Yeah!”
Eht was really simple
Now that they were going to have an upper hand in the negotiations with Lotus, they should try to take as much as possible
Lotus wouldn't be able to declare itself an Empire unless some miracle found its way to them, and there was no reason to worry too es to flip the boards and overcome the penalty
Even if the Kingdoed the war conquest, it was still impossible for them to declare themselves as an Empire, so there wasn't need to think much about it
“Okay then…”
Shakran who made a decision smiled and asked Emily,
“Emily, I'll leave the matters of the deal to you”
“Okay, master”
“Go over to Ian and try to snatch as es as you can”
Creak-
In theroom of the Lotus Castle
The door opened with Ian entering, and everyone's eyes were on him
Fiolan, Hoonie and Carwin and the leaders of the Lotus aiting for the return of Ian
And a them, the most reckless one, Hoonie jumped out to ask Ian
