Bab 152: Chapter 79.1: Neutral Nations Conference (1)
Confederation of the Santea Empire.
It was an alliance of several human-centered nations united around the Santea Empire, and the core of the main storyline of RaSa's worldview.
Calderic did not have direct borders with Santea.
This was because there were several neutral countries in the middle between the two powers.
However, even though they claimed to be neutral, it was only for show. Most of the countries were almost absorbed by Santea after the invasion of the demons.
So far, only two countries could be said to have remained in the realm of neutrality.
Earth Hill Kingdom and Kajor Kingdom.
Two countries that claimed to be neutral between the two giant powers of Santea and Calderic.
Two weak states, whose total national strength was less than one of Calderic's Lord's territory, had remained in the camp of neutrality for several reasons.
There were political reasons.
The Neutral Nations Conference held in Earth Hill was a gathering place for Calderic, Santea, and the royalty of the other neutral countries.
It's here.
I rode Ti-Yong and quickly flew to my destination. I looked at the castle of the Overlord that appeared in the distance.
As I lowered my altitude and approached the entrance of the castle, I saw the figures of two people who seemed to wait for me. They were the Overlord and the chief of staff.
Ti-Yong flapped its wings and landed right in front of them.
I landed first by using space lead, and Asher, who followed me, bowed her head to the Overlord.
"You're here, Seventh Lord."
The Overlord greeted me with an innocent smile, as always.
She looked at Asher with a strange look, and then flashed her gaze to Ti-Yong with a twinkle in her eyes.
"I heard you went to the Glide Mountains to get a wyvern. Was it this black wyvern?"
When the Overlord stared at it, Ti-Yong turned its head away with a look of reluctance.
In response, she smiled and turned her gaze back to me.
"By the way, Seventh Lord, I heard you rode the Second Lord's wyvern and went together to the Glide Mountains. The two of you were so at odds during the emergency call, so how did you even get close?"
Did she even know about that?
I changed the topic without bothering to answer.
"When are we leaving?"
"Um, well? As long as the Seventh Lord doesn't mind, we can leave right now."
I looked at her attire as she answered indifferently.
She was wearing a black dress, as always. Was she going to leave in that attire?
We're now about to head to a neutral country, so I was a little taken aback by her atmosphere. It seemed as if she was going out for a drink rather than a meeting.
"Are only the four of us going?"
"No. The chief of staff will remain, so there will only be three."
"I thought we would move in a procession, but it seemed that that wasn't the case."
The Overlord smiled and said.
"It's useless and cumbersome. I'm going there myself, so what else is needed?"
It sounded quite arrogant, but there was nothing wrong with it.
Anyway, as soon as we arrived at the Overlord's castle, they decided to travel to Earth Hill immediately.
Soon after, the Overlord brought her own wyvern, a black wyvern like Ti-Yong. If there was something different, it was the eyes. This guy had blue eyes instead.
I asked the Overlord.
"Is there a particular reason why you want me to accompany you to the conference?"
To my question, she just smiled and didn't answer.
I really couldn't figure this woman out.
"Shall we go?"
Darkness shrouded the Overlord, and her attire changed.
Rather than the dress from before, it was a simple and moderately flashy garment.
After changing her outfit, she lightly jumped onto her wyvern's back.
Looking at the scene, I couldn't help but feel a slight sense of alienation.
I already knew that the Overlord owned a wyvern, but that she rode a wyvern herself was just a little weird. It's because of her actually being a dragon.
Oh oh!
The Overlord's wyvern roared vigorously and flew into the sky first.
Asher and I, riding on Ti-Yong's back, soon followed and set off.
The distance to the neutral country was only a little longer than the distance between two territories, so it wouldn't take much time.
They held the Neutral Nations Conference this time in the Earth Hill Kingdom.
This grand summit, which began with the intention of mutual solidarity and cooperation, was held in neutral countries every three years.
A place to peacefully discuss the future of the continent, including Calderic and Santea, as well as royalty from neutral countries.
…Of course, those things were just for show, and in the end it was all about power struggle.
In particular, looking at the current situation, it's not expected that this meeting would end with a mere war of nerves.
It was because the Kajor Kingdom was intent on declaring war with the Earth Hill Kingdom at this meeting, planning to present their cause in earnest.
That was also the reason I followed the Overlord and took part in this meeting with little hesitation.
Earth Hill Kingdom…
I remembered a man I had previously met in the Fifth Lord's territory.
Tair Bamon, the second prince of the Earth Hill royal family.
If he returned to his kingdom, we would probably meet again at this meeting.
