Capítulo 282: Chapter 282 True Purpose

"You don't have to worry," Mary said. "The island is only Duria's territory on paper. Their influence is next to nothing in this region."

"What happened?"

"Decades ago, Duria and Ceraisian Empire were at war with each other. The battle was mainly at sea, and both sides tried to reach the other's land using ships. But they both failed. This island was once a key point for Duria to attack the Ceraisian because it's only 200 miles from Ceraisian's territory."

"And why did they let go of such a strategic spot?"

"You think the Ceraisian's fleet would let its enemies stay right on its doorstep? They used everything to destroy Duria's facilities in this place, and the struggle was so fierce that Duria didn't think it'd be worth it to occupy this island anymore. After that, the native people on this island rebuild themselves. Peace came that lasted for more than three decades, and this place became the hub for the west continent and the east continent."

"So the island is rich now?"
