All attention was on General Hanson while the latter's gaze was on the Queen who nodded at him. Taking this as an approval, he turned towards the officials.
"Though nothing is certain in a war, we are always prepared to fight if necessary," he started. "The war with Alora more than a year ago was the last big war we fought. So, we are in a good situation even if a war is to happen. The Royal Army is fit to fight and so is the Petrus Army in the northern border.
"In case of emergency, we can also summon the Aliron Army and the Echilot Army. The south and east border are peaceful, so there won't be a problem for them. King Vance of Zoris is also open to us anytime. So, as the one in charge of the Royal Army, I dare to say that we stand a chance to fight the forces of these three kingdoms combined."
"Is there a chance for Jerivia to take Aryan Tripas's side too?" one official asked the General. "We have to think of all possibilities before we enter a war."
