After Fluder heard that G.D.I. could teleport at such a large scale, he couldn't help but be shocked. Although teleportation magic is relatively high-level, it is not too difficult for him, as it can be accomplished by setting up a portal. However, the G.D.I. can achieve teleportation on such a large scale, something no one in the world can do.
Now, Fluder is curious about Sebastian and even eager to meet him. As the strongest magic caster among human beings, he can not only use the sixth tier of arcane magic, which ordinary people cannot use but also has an absurd thirst for knowledge about magic. He longs to raise his magic to a higher level and is willing to pay any price, even if it means selling his empire.
"In addition, the leader of G.D.I. seems to be a man named Sebastian," said the spy.
"Sebastian..." While Fluder was mumbling, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked his beard.
"Teacher, you must be very interested in the G.D.I.," Jircniv said, turning his head to look at Fluder with great interest and almost guessing his thoughts.
"That's right." Fluder didn't hide it, but while he spoke, his expression gradually became serious. "Now there is a problem: how to deal with the relationship between the G.D.I. and the Re-Estize Kingdom. Although the purpose of our annual war with the kingdom is to deplete its forces, once this balance is broken, it will be difficult to manage."
Almost every autumn, the Empire and the Kingdom go to war on the Katze Plains around the city of E-Rantel. There are two main reasons why the Empire wages war against the Kingdom every year.
As a result, in the war between the two sides, the Kingdom adopted temporary conscription, so the number of civilians joining the army was at least twice that of imperial knights. On the other hand, the Emperor can use the war as an excuse to collect taxes from the nobles. If they refuse, he will directly ransack their homes.
The purpose of the Empire's annual wars is to consume the Kingdom's national power in this way. At the same time, the contradictions caused by changes within the country are transferred to the war.
Although the Empire is now gradually able to suppress the Kingdom, if the G.D.I. intervenes, the current situation will undergo earth-shaking changes. At that time, it may not be the Kingdom but the Empire that will be ruined. They may even encounter an extinction crisis as they don't know the origin or the full power of the G.D.I.
"What do we do with them?" Jircniv narrowed his eyes and asked, wanting to know Fluder's thoughts.
"We have to understand their situation first and then create a plan," Fluder said. "This time, I will go and contact them personally."
Fluder rarely offered to investigate anything; normally, he is not interested in anything other than magic. In terms of politics and war, it can be said that because he holds an important position in the Empire, he cares about it sometimes.
But after hearing about Sebastian and the G.D.I., his interest was aroused. Fluder wanted to know exactly who Sebastian was and wondered how far his magic had reached.
[ ===== ]
The Re-Estize Kingdom, the territory of E-Rantel.
E-Rantel is one of the most important fortress cities in the Kingdom. Its geographical location is very tricky, as it is very close to the positions of the Slane Theocracy and the Baharuth Empire. It is also the location of the annual battle between the Kingdom and the Empire.
Today is the day that E-Rantel is to be transferred to the G.D.I. The citizens in the city are worried at this time because, in their eyes, they are being sold by their ruler to a group of unknown people, and many of them are even prepared to escape.
At this time, the king of the Kingdom and other nobles also came to E-Rantel to witness the most unforgettable moment in the history of the Kingdom. For the first time, land was ceded to others without a battle. Many people thought it was a cowardly act, and some even began to denounce the incompetence of the royal family.
"The incompetent king has thrown us to an unknown group."
"What is the origin of G.D.I.?"
Only Zanac, the second prince, and Marquis Raeven, who assisted him, understood that they had no chance to refuse because Sebastian and the G.D.I. are a group of major powers. As long as they want, they can easily destroy the entire Kingdom.
The king and other nobles are at the gate of E-Rantel, preparing to welcome the arrival of Sebastian and others.
"Now we may be able to witness the army of G.D.I. with our own eyes."
"Let's see what they're really about."
"Is it just a hoax?"
The nobles don't care about the status quo of E-Rantel; they only care about the background of Sebastian and G.D.I.
"Zanac and Barbro, is the G.D.I. truly that powerful?" The aged king turned to look at his two sons.
"That's right," the two sons said in unison.
The eldest prince, Barbro, has long been used as an experimental subject and is now merely a substitute disguised by a spy in front of the king.
The second prince, Zanac, has already surrendered and voluntarily became Sebastian's aide.
It can be said that Sebastian has firmly grasped the lifeblood of the whole Re-Estize Kingdom, but no one knows.
At this moment, the king heard a commotion in the distance, and even the ground beneath his feet shook.
"They are coming." Zanac's expression became serious. He knew the source of the shock: the G.D.I. was coming.
Even the other citizens in the city could feel this shock as if the end of the world was coming. The king cast his eyes into the distance, and what he saw were large numbers of troops gradually emerging from the far horizon. Like a surging tsunami, they rushed directly toward E-Rantel. It was the G.D.I. military.
Not only that, but the army from the Great Tomb of Nazarick also moved together, as they had already become allies of the G.D.I.
