Mage Veigar

Chapter 854: Unwavering loyalty
The United Kingdom of Hundreds of Races.

The capital city of Lacassia, the royal palace.

At the same time, King Meru Scimitar also received news that the Kingdom of Galan had defeated the Imperial Army.

For him, this was simply a nightmare.

In his original plan, Vega and the Empire should both suffer losses, and then after the ice and snow melted next year, he would take the opportunity to guide the Western countries to launch an attack on the Kingdom of Galan.

First, both the country and the empire suffered heavy losses.

Secondly, it suffered strong attacks from Western countries.

The final result will inevitably be the destruction of the Jialan Empire. Then, according to the prior agreement, the Principality of Baya will occupy the territory of the old dynasty, the Holy Dragon Kingdom will occupy the territory of the old kingdom, and then it will be the turn of the United Kingdom of Hundred Races to occupy 2/3 of the empire's territory.

Afterwards, the continent, which had just experienced a war, would fall back into a period of peaceful development.

Their United Kingdom of Hundred Races will also take this as an opportunity to truly replace the Empire and become a major power with a voice in the international arena, rather than a country with only "sovereignty".

People go to higher places.

Meru Scimitar was unwilling to become Veigar's lackey and bow down to him all his life.

For an ambitious person, the word "satisfaction" is a shame to him.

Before the founding of the country, his ambition was to build a country. After the founding of the country, of course, his ambition was to bring the United Kingdom of a Hundred Races to the status of an international power with a say, and then to become the Lord of the East, or even the King of Galan.

But all the beautiful dreams turned into bubbles.

Vega took down the Empire without any damage. Not only did neither side suffer any loss, but he also became fat in one go.

Now let’s take a look at the deck in Veigar’s hand.

The combined naval and land forces exceed five million, with more than forty air force formations, a well-organized high-level armed forces, and almost all the middle and senior officers of the former empire, kingdom, and dynasty, not to mention two fearsome warriors and a star elemental mage, and this does not include the strength of Vega himself.

The power of the entire country has expanded to a terrifying level.

With such strength, the Jialan Empire already has the capital to compete with the entire West.

If the original victory rate of the Jialan Kingdom against the Western countries was only 0.1%, it has now probably skyrocketed to 55%, because a clenched fist is more powerful than a palm with five fingers spread out.

Fortunately, the foundation of the Jialan Kingdom is not stable and domestic conflicts cannot be resolved in a short time.

But such a distant thing has nothing to do with Meru Scimitar anymore.

Because if you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries. His biggest problem now is how to appease the angry Western coalition forces.

Even he had never thought that those pieces of waste paper would be used to this extent by Vega. He was clearly preparing to rebel against Vega and pledge his loyalty to the West, and he was sure that Vega had not discovered his rebellious intentions.

A few days ago he was still proud of his acting skills.

But what happens now?
No matter from which angle you look at it, he helped Vega a lot.

Even if he explained to the Western countries that this was a misunderstanding and that he just wanted to use these alliances to gain Vega's trust and make Vega think that he had no reservations about the Kingdom of Galan, no one would believe it.

Helped Veigar increase his win rate from 0.1% to 55%.

This can be said to be a blessing to the Jialan Kingdom. This kind of person now says to them: You may not believe it, but I am actually your ally, and I am here to help you defeat the Jialan Kingdom...

This kind of words...

Just think about it.

In addition, the Hundred Races Kingdom is located near the Jialan Mountains. After the ice and snow melt next year, he will probably replace Vega and become the first force that the Western countries must eradicate.

Will Vega help him then?

Maybe, maybe not.

The reason for the yes is that Vega still remembers the old friendship, and at the same time, he helps his ally because of his "hard work and great contributions". The reason for the no is that how can someone else sleep peacefully beside my bed? There is only one Jialan Empire in the whole East, which is enough.

Will Veigar choose the former or the latter?
Even if Meru Scimitar used his toes to think, he knew how could he choose to help that greedy, profit-seeking, insidious, and inhumane person... a person who could not be described in even a fraction of the vicious words he used.

Even if I have to help him.

Then he must give up the sovereignty of the country.

Therefore, Meru Scimitar believes that the most important thing now is to regain the trust of the western countries.

How to regain the trust of Western countries?

This matter is extremely difficult at the moment. He can only send letters to various countries to explain the whole story. As for whether other countries will believe him in the end, he can only leave it to fate.

Anxiously waited for half a month.

The final result was just as he had guessed. The Western countries scoffed at the explanation of the Hundred Races Kingdom. The Freedom Alliance even cursed him in its reply and threatened to reduce the Hundred Races Kingdom to ashes in a month.

That's right.

Even the basic polite language between countries has been lost, and the anger of the Free Alliance is evident on the paper.

It’s not just the Liberty League.

Among them, the Principality of Baya, the City-State of Gangti, and the Holy Dragon Kingdom also strongly condemned the Hundred Races Kingdom for its hypocritical behavior.

"What should I do after one month?"

Meru Scimitar's eyes were full of confusion, because a month later would be the end of spring when the ice and snow would melt. In the next six months, the Western countries could cross the Galan Mountains at will and launch attacks on them.

In other words.

The sovereign state that he had established with great difficulty was about to be destroyed.

Revolt?

Meru Scimitar is very aware of his country's strength.

He is not Vega. Let alone fighting against the entire West, even a medium-sized country in it would be enough for him to suffer a heavy loss.

"The only solution now is to completely side with the Jialan Empire."

After much deliberation, Meru Scimitar finally chose to kill his own ambition and throw himself completely into the arms of the Kingdom of Galan. From now on, he no longer thought about becoming a major power with international voice, and was willing to be a dog of the Kingdom of Galan.

As for sovereignty, let’s just continue to deceive ourselves.

After making up his mind, Meru Scimitar sent a letter to Vega.

This letter very 'sincerely' emphasized the friendship and alliance between the two countries again. It mentioned the existence of Alysia Saint Laurent several times and stated that threats had been received from the Western countries. It hoped that the Kingdom of Galan would consider the alliance and friendship and send troops to protect the safety of the Kingdom of Hundred Races.

On the side of the Jialan Empire.

Vega, who was actively preparing for war, soon received the letter.

He was somewhat grateful to the United Kingdom of Hundred Races.

As for leaking the covenant at will and putting the Hundred Races Kingdom in an awkward position, Veigar did not have any psychological burden. After all, friendly troops were meant to be sold, so Riot could do whatever it wanted.

But this time we still have to help.

Because the geographical location of the Hundred Races Kingdom is one of the breakthrough points for attack.

Once the Hundred Races Kingdom is destroyed first, it will be a total loss for the Kingdom of Jialan.

However, when Vega received the letter for help from the Hundred Races Kingdom, he also received a top-secret intelligence from Silis.
