VIIIth Century, year 63, Brumáire. Day 26. Central Republic of the Republic of Greenwott.

First Named Defense Manager of Greenwottt, Department of Public Security and Homeland.

The man wore a classic military outfit, with a red golden button, a winter coat with a camouflaged white color, it was the Republic's type 3 uniform.

In his uniform, there were numerous medals of Honor and the most noticeable was the Main Security insignia, that medal symbolized his status and he's position in the government. He was the man behind only the six Great War General of the Republic of Greenwottt in military affair.

His face show that he probably is a middle-aged man, and to be in a prominent position being so young shows that your skills are no small shit. With a face of chewing candy, he love to talk about the beard he owned and how amazing it was.

In that room was another man, one with civil clothes with a pile of paper in his hands, gray hair revealing his age in his forties.

"You're mocking me Kevin, it's not? if I'm not mistaken, being promoted even losing battles is not something to be proud of"

"I am only a consultant of the secret service of the Republic, but I can affirm that even with lost battles yours strategies are giving enormous result to the Republic"

It was not the agitation that prevailed in that room, nor a tense atmosphere between them, it was only an observation he had quoted unconsciously. And it doesn't made her less of a liar, it was true that the Manager was losing many battles, but the battles of greater military strategy were well placed.

A high-ranking officer like Anderson should not be kept so low, such low morale could be transferred to others. But the long years of friendship between him and Kevin allowed that, and there was no problem in that, not for now.

Anderson was fierce in his strategic decisions could be considered a genius that is only found among a million people. But his martial strength, magic or weaponry skills were almost comparable to a sergeant in the republic. This caused a disapproval in many high ranking officer in his own cabinet. On the other hand Kevin always supported his friend, even after graduating from the public university of national affairs and taking different paths they still remained close.

"I really can not understand. Kingdom of Austrelia and that Urias is a surprise box, but is not that little kingdom called Florenz a major suppress?"

That quote was correct, Kevin was a secret service consultant, or in practice all information passed through him and was leaked to the others cabinet.

Kevin ... I have a bad feeling about that Kingdom of Florenz, Something tells me that this kingdom of Florenz and Urias will cause a huge whirlwind, dragging everyone together "

"it was only luck of the militia to have achieved a victory against Kingdom of Austrelia"

Answered Kevin shaking his head in disagreement. But even if Kevin knew some more information that could put Anderson's intuition in check, he couldn't share it without his superiors' permission, even if his ties of friendship with Anderson are so gigantic, his work and the security of the Republic come first. So his attempt to contain Anderson's strong intuition and stop making him deducted so deep in.

"No, from what you know two generals were killed, and more than half of the human offensive force together. That is about thousands and thousands dead men without including the force of the Generals, of course, it is a considerable force, no militia possesses such power"

"... It doesn't matter much, their King has fled, and only a regent king who no one knows the whereabouts, and two generals are dead, your army destabilized along with its citizens terrified, this kingdom has come to an end. It is a matter of time until it is swallowed up by the Kingdom of Austrelia in the future or the Federation of the Astros maybe."

Kevin was trying his hardest to change Anderson's focus, and was on the verge of getting ridiculous and making Anderson suspicious.

"This is also one of my fears, if the Federation enters into this dispute it creates a crisis on this western side. This is not good for the Republic that has important business with both, and we are still at war with the Bahart Empire ... "

"Leave it, Anderson, the prime minister and the secretaries are already solving these problems, only focuses on the military advance"

Kevin was right, these problems were not his, but he did not stop begging Kevin for a favor. He would like an audience with the Chief of the Diplomatic Cabinetry.

Normally an Officer would not have that privilege, even Anderson having such a high position. The Diplomacy Cabinet was not in good agreement to the Department of Security and vice-versa, they were both different ideologies. While some believed that they could resolve diplomatically others believed in war being the only solution and Anderson was one of those who defended the latter solution as the correct one.

But that situation demanded this, and Kevin agreed to conclude a meeting between the two. Even if it could make an earthquake in his career.

"Is tomorrow good for you?"

"The faster the better!"

VIIIth Century year 63, Fianary of Norman. Day 2; Noble House of the Younji Alliance.

City state of Castles, City state of Vestigo, City state of Lamborgia, city state of Senate and city state of Ziant. They were the last remaining of this alliance, it was without a doubt an emergency meeting. All the leaders with their most important advisors were at that meeting.

All that was missing was a Kingdom, the Kingdom of Florenz, which had been betrayed without mercy, and of course this was the theme of the debate.

"SILENCE!"

Shouted a man with a bitter smile on his mouth, he was well dressed, in leather clothes and with charming pieces of gold and beautiful jewelry. That was Grif, the King of Castles the leader of this alliance until then.

Everyone in the room was silent, then;

"Amhun please explain to them the current situation"

"With the grace of all Majesties present, pelase let me explain. Currently the Kingdom of Florenz but they somehow managed to stop the total invasion, so the Regent King is still alive, his army is probably destroyed and his citizens without hope. But by a motive yet hidden they managed to avoid the occupation of the Austrelia Kingdom, and that is a problem. With that the front of the kingdom of Austrelia was canceled, and all his efforts turned to the eastern part, where we have our highest revenue. Besides having betrayed the Kingdom of Florenz, which had the greatest military power among our alliance, it caused a grave error in believing that they would be subjugated. Now we do not have a positive vision in the Austrelia Kingdom and our military power has reduced by around Seventy percent."

"But this is absurd, as it is possible, the Kingdom of Florenz had only betwen a couple of thousand Soldiers and only two Generals, where only ten percent of that total were Paladins, the rest was a milita disguised as Soldiers."

"I understand your frustration Baron de Senate, but..."

Baron de Senate , he was a typical baron, fat, stupid, and could only see what lay ahead of him. He was a useless nobleman. But his nation had a strong bank, and was well run by his son, Marquis Closwelt. Everyone in that place would have watered the death of the Baron so that his son could set a course in the city-state Senate.

"Senate, if I may say, it does not matter what you believe at the moment. Our alliance strength has been reduced to only a little more than 650 soldiers, where sixty percent of that force is concentrated in the City state of Castles and Vestiges, seventeen in the City State Lamborgia patrons and the rest in forces of the two city-states. We do not have the strength to revolt against the invasions of the Austrelia Kingdom when he started so we betrayed the Florenz Kingdom, and now, we are not sure if we could annex small land of the Florenz Kingdom, and we can not ally ourselves with other members because of the Protocol..."

"How dare a simple subordinate speak so ..."

"Silence Baron, I allow, in case you have any problems with this, You can come and talk to me in private"

It was the King of Vestigo who remained silent, at that moment the balance shaft had been broken. The kingdom of Florenza maintained the absolute military power between the alliance and this allowed that none of them fought among themselves, but now the situation was dramatically changed. the Kingdom of Vestigo and Castles there were equal powers and nothing prevented of self-destruct.

"I think the meeting is over, in short, we made a lot of wrong choices. Kingdom of Austrelia will not be on our side and only slow down our industry with the wars in the East, the West is divided between the War of the Republic of Greenwottt and the Imperior of Bahart, The Kingdom of Florenz is no longer in the alliance and our military has been destroyed which makes it easy for other western kingdoms to conquer our lands, nor can we seek help from the Northern or Southern Regions by virtue of the Protocols. The alliance is over on my part, each one by itself "

The atmosphere had gotten strange after the King of Vestigo had spoken, and everyone agreed, from now on each was fighting as best he could to protect his kingdom on himself.

"Before...what should we do with them?"

The King Senator of Ziant had never spoken at even one meeting, but this time he broke that habit. His bloodthirsty gaze showed that his actions would not be friendly to those, who were chained and remained kneeling with their heads against the wall on the dark side of the room.

"Bring them in"

Baron de Senate stated. His perverted gaze looked from knees to toes at the body of that woman, who should already be over forty years old, and her youngest daughter who should barely have come of age caused a look of perverted desire in the Baron.

They walked slowly to the centre of the board, where the light entered their faces and demonstrated the tattered clothes, but they were of excellent quality.

"Turn your faces"

Commanded the King Senator.

Their bodies were trembling with fear, their shoulders were shrugging predicting that something painful was about to happen.

It was the King, the Queen and their youngest daughter, the Kings of Florenz, who were there.

"this is all your fault, your ambition for money, the lust of your wife and the abomination of your children have caused the ruin of our nations"

The King of Florenz wanted to sell his remaining lands after the invasion of the Kingdom of Austrelia to members of the Alliance. When the unimaginable news broke that the Kingdom of Florenz had managed to resist the invasion, they tried to flee to the far north but were caught by Senator King.

"I don't care, what's done is done. Now I have to sort out the shit I've brought on my nation. This meeting is over, so is the alliance as I had stated before. What you do is up to you Baron of Senate and King of Ziant. But I will not allow you to touch the girl, it would be shameful for me to allow Lust or Bloodlust to touch a pure and innocent girl. I have a place I want to take there.

Everyone else agreed with the King of Vestigo, a man who even if he lived around lust, ambition, will there were still certain virtues. And above all, every step had a meaning which made him one of the most feared in that room

And that was enough for the remaining members agreed with what he spoke.

"Take off your clothes, from the queen, and place them on the table" Baron de Senate ordered as he removed his robes

"Bring me my mace. And well, a gag for your King" replied the King Senator to the same, as he serrated his teeth in such fury.

The door of the room closed and a mixture of Shouting and punches echoed around that place.

The King of Vestigo walked beside the King's daughter and Queen of Florence towards the exit, while he covered his ears so she wouldn't hear what was happening to her country.

She smiled slightly at the whole situation.
