The World Alliance Cabinet Meeting
Kingdom of Dahm.
Its a country in which s.h.i.+n stopped by the other day, and where the Church of Creations headquarters were located before the founding of Holy Nation Y.
During the Three Powers Talks, it was decided that the cabinet meeting of the World Alliance will be held at the Old Empire, a location right next to the Demon Territory and is relatively close to the Three Powers countries.
When the Demon Territory Recapture Strategy gets approved, it will become the official signing of the World Alliance at the same time.
The contents of signing the World Alliance is almost decided.
[The fate of the human race depends on the cooperation of every country. In addition, we will act as one, and we will not ask for any kind of compensation during this operation.]
For example, if the troops of Country A were saved by a unit of Country B, Country B cannot demand a reward from Country A.
Yes, humanity is united against the demons and devils right now, but unless plans are made, there might be problems amongst humans after the war.
The Demon Territory Recapture Strategy is yet to be decided.
A large number of people have been selected.
Each nations army will subdue demons that spread throughout the demon territory, subjugate the devils living there and aim for the imperial capital.
With that as our goal, we a.s.sembled the coalition, but now the question is: Which country shall we make our base?
Supply chains. In particular, how do we supply Els and Ys whose borders dont touch the demon territory?
What chain of command will the Alliance forces follow?
There is a lot of things that have to be discussed.
Right now, the devils arent making a move.
However, because there were two attacks in last time, n.o.body thinks theyve given up. Instead, they think its a preparatory period for the devils next invasion.
Therefore, there are many things to discuss on the agenda, but there is not enough time to talk about all of them.
Every country representative racked their brains off trying to figure it all out.
Then, the representatives of seven countries: Earlshyde, Swedes, Dahm, Karnan, Kurt, Els and Ys have gathered in one of the temples in Dahm Kingdom. Finally, the meeting has started.
I am the military head of the Earlshyde Kingdom, Dominic Gastaule. Thank you for answering Earlshydes call. Currently, we humans are in a position where our very existence is threatened by a ma.s.s outbreak of devils and their raids. However we humans arent hopeless. Based on that I would like to continue our discussion.(Dominic)
For starters, the meeting began with a greeting by Dominic, the representative of Earlshyde Kingdom, which proposed the Alliance.
Since we cannot predict the devils attacks, we only created a rough draft. Id like you all to decide if you approve of it, is that all right?(Dominic)
That means you have already made a draft?
A representative from another country asked Dominic a question.
Yes. Obviously, if we havent done a draft, then the discussion would only be prolonged. I would like you all to take a look at the rough draft.(Dominic)
When Dominic said that, the aides distributed doc.u.ments of the draft to the country representatives.
And the reactions of representatives who looked over it were divided in two.
There are expressions of consent and expressions of surprise.
D-Director Dominic! Are you serious!?
Remarked Great Bishop Makina, who was present at the Three Power Talks as the representativ
e of Ys.
Makina was a bishop at the time of the Three Power Talks, but was promoted to archbishop as a result of his predecessor Fullers failure.
That archbishop Makina raised his doubts about what is stated in the strategy draft.
Of course I am serious, and I am convinced this is for the best.(Dominic)
But this is Arent they only fifteen to sixteen-year-old children? That is(Makina)
Then his eyes drop to the strategy draft again.
[Each national army will be in charge of suppressing demons, while the subjugation of devils and disaster cla.s.ses will be left to the Ultimate Magicians]!(Makina)
However, only the representatives of Dahm agree with the remarks of Archbishop Makina while the rest of the representatives show no doubt.
Uhm, you are? Oh, thats right! Youre Archbishop Makina. Have you not witnessed s.h.i.+n in battle?
Surely not Has everybody here seen it?(Makina)
Ah. I have.
I also have.
Me too.
I too have seen it.
The Karnan Kingdom representatives declared. As well as the representatives of Swedes, Kurt, and Naval from Els.
Didnt Naval meet them for the first time the other day?(Makina)
Didnt I stop by Earlsyhde on my way back? We b.u.mped into a flock of demons on the way.(Naval)
Is that so?(Makina)
Moreover Disaster cla.s.ses were mixed in.(Naval)
Disaster cla.s.s!? Youre unharmed!(Makina)
Thats right The Ultimate Magicians subjugated them in the blink of an eye.(Naval)
I-In the blink of an eye!?(Makina)
It felt like they were playing a game(Naval)
He probably recalled that time. Naval couldnt believe it because he was so far away.
I am a shepherd from Karnan. This summer a ma.s.s outbreak of demonic sheep occurred. I was prepared for a certain amount of sacrifice Thanks to the help of those fellows, they were all quickly cut down.
Youre also saying in the blink of an eye(Makina)
Galland is a shepherd. However in the kingdom of Karnan, a national shepherd is a highly prestigious position, and among them, he is the one that bears the responsibility of nurturing the nations sheep, and in addition, he is familiar with s.h.i.+n so he was chosen as Karnans representative.
There is no mistake. Were used to hunting disaster cla.s.ses from time to time. They decided on who will subjugate them by drawing lots.(Galland)
D-D-drawing lots!?(Makina)
Normally the loser would be made to subjugate the disaster cla.s.s, right? The child that won the lots was ecstatic.(Galland)
Those who knew them wore bitter smiles since they could easily imagine the sight, but there was one person present that didnt know them at all.
A drawing lots to subjugate a disaster cla.s.s, something that needs an entire military to subjugate!? How imprudent!
Ralph Portman, representative of this meetings host country, Dahm Kingdom.
Why would you place such imprudent people at the center of this vital strategy? I object!(Ralph)
Ralph of Dahm Kingdom opposed the strategy that focused on them because they drew lots on the battlefield.
What did you say Ralph? Does that mean you have an alternate plan?(Dominic)
If we stand united, we can overcome any hards.h.i.+p!(Ralph)
No, I will only consider a grounded plan based on concrete reasons.(Dominic)
T-that is(Ralph)
You dont have any?(Dominic)
B-but! Does everyone else agree with making such unscrupulous people the center of our strategy!?(Ralph)
I agree.
Emilio!(Ralph)
The next to speak was the Representative of Swedes Kingdom, Emilio.
He and Ralph knew each other from an exchange in the upper echelons concerning a neighboring country.
Have you ever met them?(Emilio)
No I didnt(Ralph)
I met them in person. They rushed to our crisis before anything else and repelled the devils. However, they regretted the fact there were victims and issued an apology. Even if theyre from another country, I am unable to see an unscrupulous person there.(Emilio)
(Ralph)
Emilio is the military head who accompanied s.h.i.+n to his audience with the Swedes king.
Ralph cant say anything to Emilios remarks for he has met them in person.
I also met them in person and didnt get that impression of them.(Kurt rep)
Consequently, Kurts representative follows up.
I saw them fight myself To be honest I understand what representative Naval says.(Kurt rep)
You can understand!? What do you mean by that!?(Ralph)
Ralph bites at the words of Kurts representative when he says he can understand why they drew lots.
Disaster cla.s.s demons arent even worthy opponents to them. Is that how it actually is?(Ralph)
It was instant death. If I didnt witness that scene, I would think it was dangerous as well.(Galland)
I guess.(Ralph)
I think so as well.(Kurt rep)
*** You are reading on / ***
Although he said it was instant death, Galland, the representative of Karnan, managed to convince the representative of Kurt. If you look, Emilio is nodding as well.
