The pri minister had no hesitation as he answered, "Why should we help them in the first place?"
The regent was silent, but the look on his face made it clear that he agreed with the pri minister.
It seed that neither of them had any intentions of helping those neighbouring countries that were also suffering the sa fate as us.
It seed that they didn't care what happened to those countries.
I slightly knitted my brows hearing this, but I couldn't help saying, "What if they can't contain the problem and that problem spreads to our country?"
The pri minister just calmly said, "We have our wyverns, it won't be a problem."
I couldn't disagree with this since if this world was based on the H-ga, there would be a certain level that the monsters would reach before they stopped growing. That was how the setting in the ga was, but there were things that could change now that this ga was the real world.
It was possible that these monsters would keep growing until they reached a level that would be hard to stop even with wyverns.
After all, I had never expected the dark energy to corrupt all those bosses like that...
If they could make the bosses that strong, there was no telling what else the crystals could do...
So it felt like it would be safer to take care of these monsters before that happened.
It was just that there was the problem that these monsters were in the territory of other kingdoms and it wasn't possible for us to go to those kingdoms.
If we were to go to those kingdoms, all that would happen is that a war would start.
They were different from the Midra Kingdom where we had already expanded our influence. They wouldn't take the approach of these wyverns that kindly and would most likely fight it out with us.
So in the end, it really seed like there was nothing that we could do...
The pri minister suddenly said, "Regardless, we have bigger fish to fry."
The way that he said this was as if he could already guess what I was thinking, so he was saying this to distract . However, I couldn't help slightly knitting my brows when I heard what he said.
After all, I was confused why he would say this.
After waiting for a bit, the pri minister said, "We've heard back from the Tide Empire's side."
My brows imdiately jumped up in surprise before I turned to look at the regent who was also with us.
This was a matter that concerned our kingdom's future.
At the sa ti, the regent should be considered an outsider at this point.
Maybe he might enter the inner circle in the future depending on how he acted, but this certainly wasn't the ti for it.
The regent could see the way that I looked at him and he tactfully stood up to leave, but the pri minister raised his hand to stop him. He looked at the regent and shook his head before looking back at with a firm look.
I was certainly surprised to see the pri minister standing up for the regent like this, but since he did it with such conviction...
"I never thought that you would beco this close." I said with a faint smile.
The pri minister also revealed a faint smile as he said, "Well, we have similar ideas, so it was quite easy to beco friends. At the sa ti, we have our fair share of things that we have to deal with."
The two of them were both looking at when they said this.
I didn't like the way that they were looking at .
It was almost as if they were looking at like I was so kind of troublemaker...
Well, they didn't keep looking at like this for long as they went back to what we were talking about.
The pri minister said with a more serious look, "In the future, I'm looking forward to leaving more of my matters to him and letting him act as my assistant."
I was certainly surprised by the pri minister's appraisal of the regent.
Well, if he thought that he was trustworthy, then I would trust him.
He was my brother in law after all.
Once that was settled, the pri minister said, "It seems that our fears have been realized and that Viper really is related to the royal family of the Tide Empire."
The regent deeply knitted his brows when he heard this, but I was rather calm about this
news.
After all, didn't that just an that our plan would be easier to put into action?
No, I could tell that sothing was off based on the way that the pri minister was acting.
It seed that there was sothing else that was mixed into this news that was making him worry.
Seeing the way that I looked at him, he knew that I could already guess that there was more. With a bitter smile and a shake of his head, the pri minister said, "As you'd expect, there is more."
I wasn't surprised since I figured that there would be more for the pri minister to be acting this way. So I just gave a simple nod in response to this and waited to see what else he had to
say.
The pri minister didn't speak right away as if he was hesitating over sothing, but he eventually said, "There seems to be movent from the Tide Empire's royal family. It seems like there is sothing that is going on behind the scenes that no one knows about. They just know that it's big enough that the Tide Empire's royal family has stopped seeing others these
days."
I slightly knitted my brows hearing this and thought about it before saying, "Then you're saying that it's related to Ariel and the matter that she ntioned before?"
The pri minister slowly nodded to confirm this.
That made knit my brows even more.
