Chapter 626 Uniting the human race
Azkelwart's claim of finding a solution was met with expectant eyes as everyone became attentive to what he had to say. He began recounting everything he had told Blake, and during the explanation, they would occasionally turn to Blake.
As soon as he was done speaking, the entire room was plunged into a deep silence as they pondered on his words silently.
"That is actually feasible," Cassius said with a thoughtful look on his face His gaze danced around the room, taking note of the thoughtful look on the faces of everyone present.
"Alright then, what are we waiting for?" Cassius said. "Let's get to work!" His words took Blake by surprise, and he looked in Cassius's direction with a strange look in his eyes. They just concluded a bloody war, so Blake thought they would be allowed to rest for a day or two.
"Wait, now?" He couldn't help but ask. Blake clearly had no intention of going to the southern continent so soon. Everything was happening so quickly and he didn't like it.
'For god's sake, we just finished a war!'
"No, not now" Cassius chuckled since he understood the reason for Blake's question.
"First we have to announce to the citizens of the Synder empire their new rulers before we start making preparations," Cassius explained.
Hearing this, Blake let out a sigh of relief and nodded in response. Cassius, on the other hand, decided to begin his broadcast. Countless holographic images of Cassius began appearing across the Synder empire. They covered the kingdoms, cities, commercial areas, rural areas, and every street in the empire.
"Citizens of the Synder empire, I am Cassius, Lord of darkness and current All-Father," Cassius began with an introduction that raised a lot of eyebrows and filled everyone with confusion.
Emperor Thalorin was dressed in a flowing green robe. Its collar was adorned with golden embroidery while its lower part had a wave design, sown with earthy brown threads.
Since the banishment of the human race and the formation of the Kaldorn empire in the north, somehow they hadn't been swallowed by the rest. Many believed that it was due to the terrain between the empires, but that was far from the truth.
Firstly, Cassius had no eyes on them, and all he wanted was to take down Synder and Valerius. As for Synder, they were afraid of spreading themselves too thin, especially because of the threat of the Tigerian empire hovering over them like hawks.
"What a pleasant surprise," Dorian said. "To what do I owe this call?" Dorian asked as the emperor's projection was left open for all to see.
'Why was I expecting a muscular savage as the emperor of Kaldron?' Blake muttered to himself while observing in silence.
"I tuned into Lord Cassius' beautiful speech and as you know, our aim during the formation of the empire was to avoid the conflict between you and Synder," Emperor Thalorin Verdantheart said with a confident smile plastered on his face.
"Now he is gone, that brings us to the most important topic," Emperor Thalorin Verdantheart paused for a while before he continued. "Freeing the humans from the prison," Hearing this, Dorian and everyone else in the room remained calm.
"My request is that you also free the people of Kaldron," he said.
After listening to his speech Cassius showed no emotions and simply waved off his words.
"Are the inhabitants of Kaldron not part of the human race?" Cassius asked with a raised eyebrow. "You don't have to worry, when the time comes arrangements will be made," Cassius said casually, leaving Emperor Thalorin Verdantheart shocked.
He had thought he would have to swear allegiance to Cassius before they would be saved, but it became clear to him that his impression of the new All-Father was wrong.
