"Yes. We have received word from our compatriots who have been hiding in the capital of the country of Glugaria for some time. Currently, there is a great internal movement in that city, which is strongly defended by the Wall of Atmos. The so-called Medium faction and the anti-Medium faction are fighting for control of the city.

 The conquest of the lumberyard was easily completed, and now the Orientals have access to the softwoods that can be cut there.

 This will make it even easier for us to make a magic bow Orient.

 While we were proceeding with the strategy to gain practical benefits in this way, we received new information.

 It is information brought to us by the Shadow Man.

 For some time now, shadowy people, also known as the Thracian clans, have been infiltrating each country.

 They were born and raised in the mysterious forests, where they perform tasks like assassins, using their trained bodies and magic that suits their personal qualities.

 However, they are more likely to gather information than to act as assassins, and the information in this case was obtained by a person who had entered the city of Glugaria.

 The capital of Grougalia is surrounded by walls, and only those who have been thoroughly vetted are allowed to enter.

 However, those who had already been inside for several years were able to remain hidden inside.

 The person sent a letter outside the walls using a tracking bird of communication.

 The letter described the internal divisions in the country of Glugaria.

 Apparently, there is a war between people of two different opinions in the country.

 In other words, there were those who thought that they should fight against the Orient and those who did not.

 Or, rather, a pro-Balkan faction has begun to emerge in the interior of Bulgaria.

 This battle between Orient and Gulgaria was not only a battle between countries, but also a personal grudge.

 The Hail Medium attacked me, and that was the beginning of the battle.

 The battle that began as a result of that, involving all the countries, became a large-scale one, with even other small countries getting involved in the battle against the Orient.

 The difference in strength was obvious.

 Normally, the difference in the number of soldiers would have been enough for the Orient to make peace, or the Orient would have broken down after a single battle.

 However, as a result of the endurance warfare, which took advantage of the distribution of rice and other means, the Gulagarians achieved almost no satisfactory results, and the country was left devastated.

 At present, by all accounts, the Bulgarian side no longer has a chance to win the war.

 What will happen then?

 Naturally, the argument of responsibility will arise.

 The land has been so devastated, and the Orientals have taken over the lumberyards and even the central provinces, where the keystone of the country is located, the softwoods.

 The question arose as to who would take responsibility and how.

 There are two points of contention in the country.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Those who are determined to fight to the bitter end, saying that the Orient is responsible for the devastation of the country and that they should take back the lumberyards at any cost, since they are the ones who have the lumberyards.

 However, it is said that the claim that such people are responsible for the situation has been gaining momentum recently.

 It was a mistake to fight against the Orient in the first place, and it was just an act of personal grudge.

 The opinion is that the Hail Medium is to blame for everything, and that he and those who acted according to him are to blame.

 Until now, such an opinion would not have been expressed.

 But now that we are here, we can no longer say so.

 We cannot stand by and watch our country deteriorate to this point.

 So, it was their opinion that the Hail Mediums were to blame for everything, not themselves.

 Then what should we do?

 We decided to defeat the bad guys, the ones who should be responsible, by ourselves and use it as a proof of our innocence.

 In other words, the Hail Medium, who is no longer with us, is the source of all this, and there is a growing force in the country that wants to cut the heads of those involved, especially the Hail Medium's family, and enter into negotiations with the Orient.

 Apparently, the Orientals, despite being a hostile nation, have a certain degree of trust from the other side.

 This may have something to do with their past achievements.

 They have negotiated with the hostile nations of the Purge, Peria, and Elys after the battle, and have won the war with them.

 And there is also the Church of Barca.

 The Church of Barca, which is also in the country of Gulagaria, has close relations with the Orient and can be a window for negotiations.

 Moreover, the church has a doctrine that those who use magic are believers and that they act to help their believers.

 They may think that they can use this to prepare a place for negotiations.

 For that purpose, they have decided to use force to get those who should be responsible to work to end this war.
