Chapter 42 (1/2)
The Grand Strategy
Ria visited Vargas’ house in the high-end residential area of Jaeburg in the afternoon
She was told by his wife that he was still so
Ria fir in the foyer
Meanwhile, shi+zuna, as asleep well into the afternoon,up The person herself was quite frightened, though
Her two younger brothers had come to see the Great Woman Hero that defeated their sister, but were surprised and charmed by her unexpected beauty
The htly troubled Vargas
They chose a place where they could talk quietly In this town, that could only be the park
“Well?”
Sitting down on the bench, Vargas urged her to hurry
“Surely you aren’t going to say we’re going back into the labyrinth so soon?”
Though it was ias already understood that
Of course, although Ria did unreasonable things, she wasn’t unreasonable That was his impression at least
“What kind of person do you think I am?”
“The representative of unreasonableness, recklessness, and thoughtlessness”
Striking words She deserved theh
“Well, we’re not going back into the labyrinth It’s fine to rest for a bit longer”
Ria said so It was an appeal called common sense
“Since next ti the Dark Labyrinth”
However, she spoiled it with her folloords
Vargas reluctantly nodded with an amazed faze
“It’s not impossible We can definitely ”
“Of course No-one will die”
Coas, who had lost coh she has important people to protect
“Is that what you wanted to talk about?”
“No, I wanted to ask your opinion on so”
Ria hesitated, a little lost on how to start It was probably best to start fro
“First, have you heard about the Imperial Capital’s disappearance?”
“Ah, it’s still a ruh it’s a fairly credible one”
“The fact that the Imperial Capital disappeared, for this Millennium, there’s a possibility that the human race may be ruined”
Vargas’ body trembled faintly
Jaeburg was close to demon tribe territory If there would be an invasion at the start of the Millennium, it would probably be sed up quickly [1]
With that, the human race would lose the majority of its population for this Millenniuo, apart from the southeastern island area and the Imperial Capital, you could say that human civilization ceased to exist
“My family should take shelter…”
Vargas er there should be
“It would be good going to Casalia I’ve even written a letter of introduction The Royal Capital has powerful defenses”
Ria could do so to that extent
“Then here it is To prevent huon’s power”
“So conquer the labyrinth? Although Dark Dragon Valis is a friend to huainst the demon tribe” [2]
He was bound as a friend to Militant Eo, and was Founder Leyte Anaia’s spouse one thousand years ago He exercised trees
“Then that settles it I just have to be like my ancestors”
Vargas caught her eyes and stared at her
“I haven’t said it yet, but h I’itimate child, I am Casalia’s princess”
“Ah, I knew”
“… That so?”
She wasn’t surprised he knew Not having said it up to now, he probably just feigned ignorance
She had grandly introduced herself as a princess in Labyrinth City after all With infor here, it was easy to tie that identity to Ria, considering her capabilities
Ria was iave her advice
“Labyrinth City’s mayor said that the Millennium would happen within ten years”
Even with that, the infore
“Between ten years and a single year, it’s a different thing entirely”
“Yeah, that’s why I already don’t think there’s any time to waste”
They had lost the Ion
“Back up a little, were the spirits cla over that?”
“That’s… I see, at that time, that hen the Imperial Capital disappeared”
All the way from the Imperial Capital to here, separated by thousands of kiloical power
If that e for even a God Dragon, this world’s guardians, to disappear
“I’ve been thinking about it Without the Imperial Capital, hoe stop the demon tribe’s invasion?” [3]
Ria used a stick to round
“Frodom, the Ooic City, the Mountain Range of Death, Casalia, groups of se Inland Sea”
Touching all of this was the layer of permafrost, the demon tribe’s territory on the other side
“The Giant Sill be no problereat war potential of the elves If Holy City and Magic City cooperates, they h war potential Casalia is stable The Dark Labyrinth is the Dark Dragon’s domain”
Though Vargas wasn’t too detailed on the continent’s situation, he didn’t interrupt There was noto say
“To begin with, the Mountain Range of Death is a protective barrier by itself Sahout history the de its waters, so it’s probably fine to disregard it”
Then there were two places re
“The probledom, there are small and medium sized cities around it”
“Yeah Istra’s known for civil wars… it’s far too useless When the ti that can be done but leave it to leave it to Oomori Woods’ elves What we should work on now is definitely this area The scattered city-states don’t have a collected war potential They do however have considerable personal strengths”
Ria struck down on the crude map
The beastkin villages, the ogre villages, the dwarf villages, Labyrinth City, Jaeburg There were even other areas
“The Manesh Kingdoons”
“Tentatively, though there are only five kingdo the scattered people together”
“The Cordova Kingdom?”
Right, although Ria abhored the Cordova Kingdoe of the continent
