In a way, there were benefits to be had fro in utter chaos At the very least, the elves’ caravan traveling north had a much easier time

What would be the fastest way to become friends with other people or factions? Sio, having so h another country’s territory would bring nothing but trouble Even if a country allowed you through, believing that you weren’t actually trying to invade them, there would always be elf slavers to deal with and plenty of governmental red tape It would be quite co an easy journey would be nothing s had been realized The Chaos Faction had attacked for real, and this gave the entire huer No et along with than the demons Since the Northlands didn’t have doms, and especially since the Northlands was a major munitions producer and supplier, it would obviously be far better to have a friendly relationshi+p with the Northlands rather than antagonistic at this time

There was a phrase that the rulers were far easier to deal with than low-ranking subordinates That was because the “rulers” typically didn’t care too much about minor affairs, so they didn’t care about these visitors passing through The rulers didn’t have well-organized disciplinary systems for their subordinates

Now that the local rulers heard how Reyne of the Mist Alliance wanted to pass through, not only was periven every time, many domain lords even personally came over to pay their respects and try to set up connections or discuss munitions purchases This was all done with plenty of po, which helped the elves to see the Mist Alliance’s status in human society

Of course, elves were tremendously valuable for those interested in the elf slave trade, and certain hu procession of treasure Even though this elven caravan ell defended by our airshi+ps, there were still plenty of knaves and scoundrels following us around Plenty of people in black clothes were flying around even in broad daylight There were so many thieves and spies on the rooftops that they could probably organize card ga

It couldn’t be helped I sent out the black and red dragons to onbreath and dragon roars Well, for these thieves and spies, the dragons fro” than the ht, there were far fewer spectators around us As for the thieves who requested higher pay for being forced to deal with potential fire hazards, well, who cared?

But the moment that we entered areas with few people around, there were still so rich instantly by robbing us There were soroups that would soht as bandits We witnessed many underhanded a “e pit in the road for an aht, and so on The funniest attempt of all came fro discussions with us, but then becaained froation, I even learned that these two do the day, they would be dohttime This was a major taboo for the nobility Who would dare to live in their territory if it was known that the domain lord was personally involved in banditry? It would be far too e for it to be known that a domain lord was also a bandit Not only would the doreatly impacted, even their ruler’s reputation would be tarnished

Hence, I kindly considered the reputation of the two do, pro to protect the reputation of his nobles and to keep this secret The king was quite grateful, and gave e amount of treasure and food supplies to express his “thanks”

…Cough, ahem, this was all voluntary! How can you possibly say that I was extorting him! He clearly did this of his own volition!

In this special time when the entire mortal plane was in chaos, we met with plenty of trouble on the way But, since the huainst the deh, we didn’t meet with any major trouble that could actually threaten us

Teeks had passed

I could sort of get out of bed now Although er had to sit in bed every day working at dealing with political matters… I swear on how rarely I worked hard! Over the past teeks, I definitely did at least three years’ worth of work, so… I deserved to rest for the next three years!

I didn’t really intend on interfering with the Northlands’ political ood job The Northlands governovernhly efficient This would obviously be farup with crooked ideas for the on in the world right now, as well as the Mist Alliance’s preparations for battle This was one of my specialties, after all

Still, I didn’t pay that much attention to the hundreds of coh to buryto do withperiod of time afterward, combat reports would only multiply exponentially in nu too

The only combat report that attracted my interest, or should I say attracted the interest of the entire mortal plane, was about the battle between Bardi and the undead The extravagance of five Undead Eether was h to attract the whole world’s attention

Everyone aiting for the fairies’ assessment of the Undead Emperors Unfortunately, the fairies’ report was rather disappointing

“All five Undead Eue assess to hear The fairies’ inforue Such an assessment only er than Low Gods, but that was common sense that everyone already knew Such an assessment was basically equal to no assessment

But, once the more detailed combat report arrived, I knew that this wasn’t the fairies’ fault Those ancient Undead Emperors were simply far too sly, and hadn’t revealed their real powers

None of the Undead Eainst Bardi All they did was constantly suative energy undead ic attacks The difference between them and Undead Lords was that they could summon several hundred times the nuic attacks like Death Finger would have power equivalent to a ainst fortress walls when used by Undead Eerous trait of any Undead Emperor would be their personal specialty Each Undead Emperor would have a personal field of research that they rivaled the Creator Goddesses in e of It was evident that these ancient, sly Undead Emperors wouldn’t so easily reveal their true powers, and since these Undead Emperors were far too ancient and had been in the Death Planes for far too long, it would be difficult for even the fairies to find out what their true poere

Only by asking similarly ancient existences would it be possible to perhaps find out the Undead Emperors’ powers However, this would take quite a while, and when considering that the Undead Emperors had spent so many millennia in the Death Planes already and likely improved themselves even further, past information could only be used as otten serious They successfully conquered Nightrain Fortress only by using basic undead and autoattacks In a way, this proved hoerful they were At the very least, I definitely didn’t want to have to face theotiate with the undead Tark Republic It would be quite convenient if a peace agreement or even alliance could be established Unfortunately, peace would only ever arrive and have its value after the devastation of war Before the Undead Emperors were convinced that their objectives were iotiations would be impossible

I took a deep breath as I closed h the chill of early winter was quite good for energizing a person, it would be a bit haret out of bed

It was my personal habit to write diaries Not only would they help to record the past, they could also re foolish recently that I needed to fix

Right now, in oals had yet to be completed

“Gather top-level resources to coht sword, Dawn – Ithe tremendous power level difference between him and Sun God Aloyo, the success rate of his mission should be quite loever, why do I feel like he’ll definitely succeed?”
