In a small room somewhere underground on the continent of Selbion, ten masked people sat around a table.

"What do you think about the Kingdom of Ethelledor's request for help from the Taknes Empire?"

The man in the black mask spoke in a dead accent.

"Your Excellency, why do you manipulate an unknown corpse to attend the meeting every time?

The man in the purple mask voiced his displeasure.

"Shut up, don't be rude to Your Excellency the Alliance Leader!" the white-masked adult roared.

"Cut!"

"Okay, don't make any noise, let's talk about it!"

"The Kingdom of Ethelaldo declined 400 years ago, and no matter how wise the current King Ethelador is, it will be difficult to reverse the decline!" said White Mask, "The old man thinks that if the Empire wants to prevent the resurrection of the Virtuous Dragon Ancestor, then the Empire will definitely take this opportunity to annex the Ethkelador Kingdom and bring the Etheleldo Kingdom and the Tomb of the Virtuous Dragon Ancestor under its control in one fell swoop. ”

If the Empire controls the Ethelledo Kingdom, it will also control the transportation hub of the Selbian Continent, so the Empire will definitely drive the power of the Holy Kingdom back to the northern part of the Selbian Continent. Brown Mask nodded in agreement.

"I don't agree!" Greymask spoke, "It's well known that Emperor Tacnes and King Ethelerdo had a fateful relationship, and Emperor Tacnes is a man of great affection and righteousness, how can he be treacherous!"

"Besides, Princess Aixiang Ethelledo of the Ethelledo Kingdom is a powerful dragon swordsman, even if the Empire can capture the 'Red Gold City', the fugitive Princess Aixiang will have a great appeal as a dragon swordsman in the sphere of influence of the Holy Kingdom!" Purple Mask added, "This means that the Empire will be the enemy of the entire Holy Kingdom, and I don't think Emperor Taknis would do such a stupid thing!"

"But it's not impossible!If the Empire controls the Ethelledo Kingdom, it can also greatly increase the difficulty of resurrecting the Virtuous Dragon Ancestor!" Brown Mask said, "And controlling the transportation hub of the Selbion continent will greatly enhance the strength of the Empire! This is good for the Empire! So I think it is very likely that the Empire will do this!"

"Risking the enmity of the entire Northern Continent to annex a small kingdom like the Kingdom of Ethelledor, and being charged with treachery, you underestimate the strength of Emperor Tacnis!" retorted Purple Mask.

"I've gotten the word that Princess Kaos has awakened!" Black Mask interjected.

"What !!" The crowd who were still arguing fiercely just now were all shocked by this sentence, only the purple mask remained silent.

"If Princess Kaos has awakened, should we take action?"

"No! the current Princess Kaos has not even recovered one percent of her strength, even if she falls under the control of the enemy, she is not afraid!"

"Your Excellency, is your message accurate?"

"It's true!" Black Mask proclaimed loudly, "The daughter of the Virtuous Dragon Ancestor, Night-Kaos Selbiang, has awakened!"
