Chapter 67: One thing of the Night time
The Allied Nations.
A splendid neighborhood throughout the continent, the place nations, each militarily and economically, complement every others deficiencies to create a harmonious give-and-take relationship.
Nevertheless, that was merely a facade, and their true goal was.
Breaking the Empire.
The widespread aim of the Allied Nations was to convey in regards to the full downfall of that thorn of their facet, the vile Empire.
However.
The Empire has made a fortune with the patent for the improved magic stone!
Shouldnt we additionally purchase no less than one gem frog?
Its unbelievable, the variety of folks subscribing to the Empires newspaper inside the Allied Nations is rising!
Its not simple.
The Empire is doing too effectively as of late.
Just some years in the past, the Empire was unstable. Its economic system, diplomacy, and army all wavered. Thus, the Allied Nations waited for the correct second.
Just a bit longer, and so they might have introduced the Empire to its knees.
However to out of the blue rise from the ashes to the skies, like a dragon that had been mendacity in wait.
Reinhardt, the universally acknowledged genius strategist of the Allied Nations, pressed his throbbing temples.
Now, the Empire has grown too massive to impress.
A stable home market, army power that matches every other, and even a reasonably respectable repute.
Theres no opening.
A couple of years again, if the Allied Nations had declared battle on the Empire, folks might need stated:
-Its the Empire, in spite of everything. I dont know a lot, however In poor health assist the Allied Nations regardless.
Now?
-Are they out of their minds? We cant think about life with out the improved magic stones anymore. Lengthy stay the Barba Royal Household. Defend Ascal.
Urgh…
If I knew it could come to this, I ought to have attacked the Empire a 12 months in the past, even when it meant framing them.
Reinhardt, having missed the chance, contemplated deeply about the reason for the present state of affairs.
Firstly,
It wasnt the incompetent Emperor, however the Crown Prince who was main the nation.
The Crown Prince was fairly commendable. In accordance with the studies from the Allied Nations, his general rank was A.
He had the qualities to be thought of a reasonably good sovereign if he have been to steer a rustic.
Nevertheless, he wasnt sufficient to revive the already declining Empire.
<Depend Ascal Erindale>
Endowed with countless mystical skills and the power to discern the instances, this younger nobleman, known as the hidden dragon of the Empire, is credited with lifting the failing Empire to its present standing as an incredible energy. And even after
General Rank: S+
Ascal Erindale, this beast!
The primary wrongdoer behind the Empires revival was none aside from Ascal Erindale.
If solely he hadnt been there, every part would have gone easily.
Reinhardt suppressed his anger with a hiss.
Why am I so indignant?
One of many situations of being a superb strategist is to keep up composure. Irrespective of the state of affairs, one should not lose cool and should at all times draw the following transfer.
Reinhardt took a deep breath.
His thoughts calmed down.
And he realized.
Thats proper. I used to be harboring an inferiority complicated in direction of Ascal Erindale.
It was a chilly self-analysis.
Hmph. To assume that I, a person who may even objectify his personal inferiority complicated…
Reinhardt regained his composure,
Believing, albeit inwardly, that his capability to objectify himself was maybe superior to Ascals.
However nonetheless, he stays an distinctive particular person.
A person appears infinitely insignificant in comparison with a gaggle.
However generally, a single individual can fully flip round a collective.
A singer with unbelievable charisma, a painter who leaves behind masterpieces, a frontrunner who instills braveness within the folks.
They’re typically known as nice figures.
Reinhardt dared to guage.
Ascal Erindale is each an incredible determine and the hero of the Empire.
Sushia insists. Is it okay if I am going, Lia?
Lias blue eyes appeared up at Ascal.
Sure. Benefit from the play.
It looks as if you two have gotten nearer. It felt like there was a little bit of distance earlier than…
Its solely pure to debate schedules with an aide. We could name it a day then?
****
Within the secret workplace of the Imperial Palace.
Is that this intelligence correct?
Sure, Your Highness. The Allied Nations are making their transfer. They’re looking for the Prince of the Night time.
The Crown Prince at all times saved a vigilant eye on the actions of the Allied Nations. The Empire had many enemies. One needed to transfer swiftly to keep away from getting caught in schemes.
Is the Prince of the Night time royalty from some nation?
No, Your Highness. He’s stated to be the chief of a gaggle known as the Knights of the Night time. Theres additionally stated to be a Princess of the Night time.
A Princess of the Night time… Thats a bit embarrassing to listen to.
Nevertheless, the Crown Prince confronted a dilemma.
This matter was extremely labeled even inside the Allied Nations. They solely knew that there was a seek for the Prince of the Night time, with no additional particulars out there.
However given the Allied Nations are looking for them, it have to be a matter of great significance.The Prince of the Night time.
A determine shrouded in thriller.
What potential he holds stays unknown at this second.
One factor is for sure: he should not fall into the palms of the Allied Nations.
We should discover the Prince of the Night time earlier than the Allied Nations do. And naturally, in secrecy.

Going again in time a bit,
After the profitable rescue within the Holy Kingdom for Ascal,
Somebody needed to write a report. Based mostly on rank and seniority, Serena Barba was the best, however after all, one couldn’t presumably ask royalty to write down studies.
Laika and Jerobe have been naturally excluded. Arthur Debrues writing expertise have been dismal. Excluded.
That left Devon and Kain.
The 2 checked out one another.
And after a fierce battle of rock-paper-scissors and coin tossing, Kain ended up shedding. An exquisite custom of passing the buck, true to the spirit of the Analysis Division.
Kain, head of Analysis Division 1 reviewed the report he was writing.
<The occasion used aliases whereas within the Holy Kingdom to keep away from revealing their identities. These aliases have been:
Laika (The Murderer of the Night time)
Jerobe (The Berserker of the Night time)
Kain (The Workers of the Night time)
Devon (The Sentinel of the Night time)
Arthur Debrue (The Swordsman of the Night time)
Serena Barba (The Princess of the Night time)
Ascal Erindale (The Prince of the Night time)
Princess Yulia Barba adamantly refused to make use of an alias…>
Devan, wanting on the report, commented,
Typical of the Workers of the Night time. A report with no superfluous particulars.
Kain rubbed his temples.
True to the Sentinel of the Night time, you’ve gotten a eager eye.
Devons eyebrows twitched.
Who was it once more that first advised we use these aliases?
It was Princess Serena…
…
I dont normally say this, however it’s considerably embarrassing.
The aliases arent actually the vital half right here.
Their eyes met.
They reached an unstated settlement.
Whoosh.
The report thrown into the fireside become ashes.
The report ultimately submitted had all mentions of the Knightly Order of the Night time fully erased.
