Chapter 559 As expected of His Highness the Holy One...

The kingdom's involvement in the imperial war was solely for the kingdom's own benefit.

Now that Old Bones has tripped up the Kingdom, preventing it from participating in the alliance of nations, Seiya naturally has no choice but to use Plan B.

"Saint, what do you mean by PreB? And what about the king of the Demi-human Kingdom?"

Due to internal pressure, the kingdom is definitely unable to provide aid to the empire at the moment.

However, when Seiya mentioned the Kingdom of Demi-humans, Zanak and Reibourn were clearly taken aback.

They knew about the demi-human race, but they had never heard of a demi-human kingdom.

No, it should be said that the wild and diverse subhuman races, could they possibly establish a nation?

Even if they were to establish a nation, I'm afraid that their internal strife would bring the entire country down in just a few days.
After all, it is common knowledge that humans are the most mediocre race on this continent, and often they can only become food for other races.

In the eyes of other races, the demi-human race is also considered an inferior race.

Although they are physically stronger than humans, they are not very intelligent and spend all their time fighting and killing.

To Zanak and Rebunhou, the idea that a race only slightly better than beasts could establish a nation sounded like a fantasy.

“Brother Zanak should know that I went to the Holy Kingdom some time ago, right?”
This Holy Grace Kingdom was established with my help.

As the king of the kingdom, my brother is unable to participate in the council of nations due to internal pressures. However, although I am the third prince of the kingdom, I do not represent the kingdom itself, but rather the demi-human kingdom I established. Is that alright then?

Saint's words greatly shocked both Zanack and Rebun.

And being intelligent people, they quickly understood Seiya's intentions. Reibou looked at Seiya with great admiration and said, "Your Highness Seiya, so when you went to the Holy Kingdom to subdue the demi-human race there, was it because you had already foreseen what would happen today?"

Seeing the way Reibou looked at him like a fanboy looking at his idol, Seiya swallowed back the words he was about to say and nodded rather reluctantly.

"That's amazing! I never expected that His Highness Seiya would be able to calculate this far."

His Majesty Zanak established an alliance with the Magic Kingdom in the name of the Kingdom, while His Highness Seizai participated in the conference of nations as the king of the demi-humans.

This is equivalent to betting on both sides. Regardless of whether the Magic Kingdom or the Bahars Empire wins in the end, our kingdom will be invincible and will not have to worry about being punished later.

Was this the reason why His Highness Seiya refused the throne in the first place?
After all, if His Highness Seizai were the king of the kingdom, he would be facing the same situation as His Majesty Zanak.

Although you are currently the third prince of the kingdom, you do not represent the kingdom. However, by joining the council of nations in this capacity, the other nations cannot accuse our kingdom of being a traitor to humanity and of standing idly by.

Reibourn's words were so grand that they practically blew Seiya's reputation up to the heavens.

After learning that Seiya had actually "plotted" so much, Zanak bowed deeply to him to express his gratitude, saying, "Seiya, I never expected that you would go to such lengths to scheme for the kingdom."

"Father was right before; perhaps you are more suited to be the king of this kingdom than I am."

Saint: (_;) No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense! Why does every camp always have a Dihua thinker!
Seiya wanted to explain that when he subdued the demi-humans, he was only doing so because he felt sorry for those who were used as cannon fodder in the Holy Kingdom arc. He also simply wanted some henchmen; as for any elaborate strategy, that was utter nonsense.

Wanting to establish a nation and erecting statues for themselves without authorization, and worshipping themselves as "demi-human gods," are all spontaneous actions of those demi-human races. What does that have to do with his holiness?

Of course, Seiya was also well aware that no matter how he explained, Zanack and Reibounhou probably wouldn't believe him.

So, to avoid his words being misinterpreted into other strange ways, Seiya decisively chose to keep quiet.

When news of Albedo's arrival in the kingdom with her delegation and the establishment of an alliance spread throughout the surrounding countries, Gilkenif, far away in the palace of the Bahars Empire, slammed his fist on the desk in front of him in a fit of rage and let out a bitter laugh.

The kingdom chose to ally with those monsters, while the Holy Kingdom itself went there in person.

The Holy Princess coldly replied that if the kingdom joined the alliance, then their Holy Kingdom would also join in.

When Gilkenif asked for an explanation, he learned that the third prince of the kingdom had done the Holy Kingdom a great favor some time ago and had even become a hero of the Holy Kingdom.

And from the many versions of the story he heard in the Holy King's capital, Gilkenif finally understood why the Holy Queen had rejected his marriage proposal.

So that woman has already found a better target.

With the Kingdom and the Holy Kingdom out of reach, Gilkenif had no choice but to turn to the Slane Church for help.

After all, as the most powerful theocracy among all human nations, it has always touted itself as the spokesperson of God.

With monsters about to wreak havoc on human kingdoms, shouldn't the other side just stand by and do nothing?
However, when Gilkenif saw the Theocracy's reply, he was completely dumbfounded.

The Church stated that if the Magic Kingdom was indeed a nation established by the Undead, then they would certainly not stand idly by.

However, they could not confirm the credibility of Gilkenif and the Bahars Empire until then.

Ainz Ooal Gown's strength is undeniable, but how come the entire Imperial party returned unharmed after going to his headquarters?

In short, the Theocracy fears that the Empire is colluding with the Sorcerer Nation and is using the "Conference of Nations" as a pretext to lure people in.

It's not impossible for their theocracy to join the war, but the Bahars Empire must first fight the Sorcerer Kingdom to prove itself before their theocracy will join in.

Or rather, the Empire needs to find other major human powers to vouch for it; otherwise, they wouldn't mobilize the power of the Holy Land to help the Empire based on the Emperor's one-sided statement.

Let the Bahars Empire fight the Sorcerer Kingdom first?
Gilkenif even doubted whether their Bahars Empire would still exist after the first war!
Leaving aside Ainz Ooal Gown himself and the monsters around him.

The super minions over there are Death Knights, which even the Four Horsemen combined might not be able to defeat.

With an army composed of monstrous undead, what could their empire's army possibly use to fight them? Their heads?

They even tried to fight them first; they're probably going to get wiped out in one fell swoop!
