Chapter 596 Cap 594: Prime Minister Of The Black Empire(Chapter Preview)

Talking to this Joseph made me understand the problems that will arise, but it also gave me an idea to avoid or at least minimize the damage I will cause when planting this seed.

For the next few hours we discuss the defensive measures that the various Realms will be taking, we also discuss the time it will take for all this preparation to be ready.

After that we talked about the possibility of saving the World Tree Spirit, it seems that Joseph and the other Elves didn't know this, they all started crying when they found out that even the World Tree Spirit was seriously injured.

I tell them about the plan to save the World Tree Spirit, but I say it will stop being a World Tree, but they didn't care, Joseph almost dropped to his knees in thanks.

He came in looking so calm, wise, and rational, but now he looks desperate, I think the World Tree of that continent didn't let the Elves know about his real condition, maybe he did something he shouldn't by telling them that.

"So we have to wait another 3 months?" (I)

"Unfortunately yes, for me we would do that today, but it would cause the fall of dozens of Realms and the unnecessary death of thousands of people." (Joseph)

"I was thinking that maybe I might be able to slow down or even stop this Wave of Monsters asking this World Tree for help after transferring its Spirit into the new body." (I)

"..." (Joseph)

Joseph is speechless with wide eyes, so he puts on a thoughtful expression before returning to speak uncertainly.

"I don't know if that would be possible, I need to talk to the Queen for confirmation." (Joseph)

"I don't know if it's possible either, but it doesn't hurt to try if it has the possibility to save many lives." (I)

"I must say that your youthful appearance belies a very cunning mind, Mister Zenos." (Joseph)

"Your ideas for defense during a Monster Wave and your bold plans managed to open my eyes today." (Joseph)

"Talking to you also helped me understand a number of risks that I overlooked without realizing it." (I)

"I'd like to talk to you more, but I have to get back to the village ahead of schedule." (Joseph)

"Many of the things you said should be discussed with the Queen and the other Elders of the village council." (Joseph)

"This matter must not leave this room or it has caused panic among the Elf race of this continent, you understand." (Joseph)

"Yes, the first Elder." (all Elves)

"When will I be able to meet you again?" (I)

"We can leave some Elves in this house, so they can serve as liaisons between the village and you." (Joseph)

"That would be nice, I plan on getting out of here tomorrow now that everything is in order and we have a plan in mind." (I)

"Tomorrow morning the Elves in question will be at the door of this manor, you can leave your keys with them on your way out." (Joseph)

"I'll do it." (I)

I stand up and shake hands with Joseph, then walk them to the door.

----------

After saying goodbye to the people of the Elf village, I go back to the room where I talk a little with Freya.

"What do you think of Athena and this Heretic God?" (I)

"I think everything she said was true, it wouldn't be possible to lie in front of a Moon Spirit, but the Heretic God shouldn't be meddlesome by our mortal standards, I advise the master to talk to Vanessa and Ragnar about it, it would be even better if I could talk to the Goddess Selene." (Freya)

"There is a Temple of Blood in this town, maybe I should go there." (I)

"I can't risk taking untrustworthy people when we go to the World Tree." (I)

Pov Duke Gregory Roux:

p It was already night and I was in my office in my mansion in the capital of the Black Empire.

In the middle of signing documents, my right arm started to shake and slowly change shape.

"Damn, why does this always have to happen during full moons." (I)

"Where's the suppression injection..." (I)

I use magic to reveal a secret drawer of my desk that I open and get an injection with a green liquid with a faint purple glow, I apply it to the arm that had already ripped my clothes, then a pain ran through my body as my blood seemed to boil into my veins for a few seconds until the pain disappeared and my arm was back to normal.

Sigh

"It's time to complete the last experiment, if you lose control of that body during combat, the plan is lost, don't you agree?" (I)

"As always your senses are magnificent, my lord." (number 0)

"Why did you come here? I thought I made it very clear that you shouldn't approach me in the capital." (I)

"I came to inform you that I already have all the information you asked for, besides that, I have news about the Horn squad." (number 0)

"For you to be here means they left just as predicted, right?" (I)

"Yes, everyone has already resigned to the Queen and left the same day, just as we planned by forcing the retirement of Horn 0." (number 0)

"Because of Lilian my plans were delayed by over 100 years, it was hard to pretend for so long with her eyes on me all the time." (I)

"I wanted her dead, but that would attract the attention of the Queen and her subordinates." (I)

That bitch was a huge headache for me, I'm lucky she forced herself to stay below the Lower Catastrophe Grade for all this time, otherwise, her already keen senses might have picked up on something.

"Tell me what you found out about?" (I)

"My subordinate has returned from the Morror Continent, it seems that the plan to use the prince to wreak havoc on that continent has failed and all of his troops have been defeated." (number 0)

"I thought this could happen, too bad this preemptive strike failed, but at least we managed to force a war between the two continents again." (I)

"I'm sorry to inform you sir, but that's not going to happen, people on the mainland don't know that it was Demons behind what was happening." (number 0)

"That's impossible, it has been confirmed that the troops we helped him gather for his foolish cause were successfully summoned." (I)

"There is nothing left behind, whether the troops summoned, those already on the mainland, or even the traces of the prince's plans, nothing was found, even their bodies were taken and any facilities or clues were destroyed by someone." (number 0)

"We still don't know who did this or why, but we're sure the rulers of the Morror Continent didn't know either." (number 0)

"Damn! That would be impossible to hide, these plans were made to cause a war to be hit or miss, the cities themselves should be proof that Demons were involved if that proud prince followed my suggestions." (I)

"It seems that the sewers were destroyed and the black stone is stolen, as far as I can find only one city was completely destroyed, probably the place of summoning troops, but even there nothing was found, not even a single drop of blood." (number 0)

Blood starts to drip from my hands as I squeeze hard making my claws hurt my palms, it was very difficult to manipulate that prince over the years for him to create this terrorist group, it was also difficult to hide them long enough to grow to a proper stage, but now all is lost and I'm back to square one.

"I have good news sir, we have managed to find a noble foolish and influential enough to force the Blood Manipulator release." (number 0)

"At least good news, by the records he's someone smart, but he's too proud and likes to be the center of attention, it's going to be an excellent distraction giving us more freedom to start our movement." (I)

"All according to your plans, Prime Minister." (number 0)
