2030 AD
The great continent of Pangea was never peaceful due to Ragnarok, the war for suprenarok that started three years after the Great Su stretched to over seven yearsRather, it intensified as tith between the Grand Sovereigns
Ragnarok had resulted in the creation of three large powers
Kang Chul-In, one of the Grand Sovereigns and two other Grand Sovereigns participated in the creation of the Ishtar Coalition, which was centered around the use of ar Union, which based its foundation in strong economic power and productivity
The final was the Baldur Alliance, which was evaluated to be the weakest of the three alliances despite the presence of five Grand Sovereigns
These three power groups, depending on the situation, aligned or were at feud with one another, co each other like the ancient China’s Three Kingdoh, at this rate, ill not acco on a throne on, as he looked down at the current state of Ragnarok and the chessboard withChul-In, the strongest in force areat and vast land of Valhalla
“I want to crush theed in a war of attritionHow nice would it be if I can destroy theered at the Gullveig Union that was marked with a white pawn on the chessboard
YesIn Kang Chul-In’s quest to take over the entire Pangea continent, the Gullveig union was the largest setback
Gullveig coreat econo itself in a favorable place in RagnarokAt this rate, there was a high probability that as Ragnarok progressed, the Gullveig Union would gain control of PangeaTo tip the balance on the power struggle a’s econo Union, the one at loss would be only the Ishtar side

The Baldur Alliance eak, able to be destroyed at any ti, also, could destroy the Baldur Alliance at any ti neutral diploUnion were at warThey were certainly detestable
In the eyes of Kang Chul-In, Baldur, who meticulously bore between the two Great Powers and ate up the dropped pieces froround, without any contributions or losses, was the most indecent one of allHowever, he couldn’t just push off the Baldur Alliance out of angerIf Kang Chul-In was to hit the Baldurs, these bats would just side with the Gullveigs and wage a war of two against one
Of course, these progressions were not proble and Baldur camps were not free of these sorts of problemsIn these sorts of wars, the outco which pahich poould make the first moveThe roles would be different based on this move, but the outcome alikeWhatever choice and move was made, the one who e
“Urg! If I had brought Lee Gong-Myung under s would not have been this twisted,” growled Kang Chul-In, sitting on his throne

Kang Chul-In, as skilled in reat leader, would have been able to defeat the Gullveigs and the Baldurs easily right after with the help of Lee Gong- Myung’s strategies
“If Kwak Jung at least had been working under me, the situation would have been a lot different… it’s a pityYou died because you served under such an inco served under a different Great Power leader, but died of lung cancer in the early years of the war in 2040He had died early at 38 years of ageIf Kwak Jung had been Kang Chul-In’s subordinate, he would have cured the lung cancer, nountil he died fro to do for one who had already passed
“Everything has already passed and cannot be reversed… regret that bears no fruit” Kang Chul-In shook his head, sing his regrets
There was no point in wanting what he could not have
Of the two strategists that he desired, one belonged to and served faithfully to his rival, Alex Rothschild, and the other had died before he could even atte

As he was thinking and regretting alone, Alfred, the van, burst into the room and bowed down before hi Chul-In asked with a slight scowl
Alfred, who had always entle and calm characteristic of vampires, suddenly bursted in and stumbled before him with a flustered expression
“Master… so?”
“It… it is… the scout who just returned to report…!”
“Speak calmlyI will not be surprised”
