"We can completely make you and your sister oppose each other, and force all the Sarkaz to choose sides - one is the realistic Regent Theresis, and the other is the idealistic Demon King Theresia. Let the Sarkaz make their own choice."

"This way, you will all have subordinates who are truly loyal to you, which is actually a good thing. It can also paralyze those non-Sarkaz races. A demon king who is not recognized by all Sarkaz is not a demon king. They will be happy to sit aside and watch you tear each other apart."

The more Tracy listened, the more familiar it sounded.

"Then we both secretly communicated with each other and kept fighting a low-intensity war of attrition, training our troops while stalling for time, waiting for enough Sarkaz to return to Kazdel. Those countries would even take the initiative to let the Sarkaz return - because they came back to fight a civil war."

What is the difference between this and the battle between the coalition led by Kal'tsit and the Sarkaz resistance led by the Doctor two hundred years ago?

For two hundred years, the other party has not even been willing to upgrade their methods.

“Of course, you can even rebuild the real Kazdel. After all, as long as Kazdel is not built by the Demon King, it will not cause much reaction from the surrounding countries.”

"So how should we end it? Even a low-intensity war will deepen the hatred between the two sides, and this civil war will definitely not last long. In that case, it cannot be resolved by a peaceful negotiation."

"It's simple. Idealists come together for an ideal. If you want to tear them apart, all you have to do is destroy that ideal completely."

The man said lightly.

"Theresa... As long as she disappears, her subordinates will completely collapse. If you take this opportunity to take away all the core commanders, then no matter how powerful the force is, it will collapse in an instant, and there will be little resistance when it is annexed by me."

Tracy stared at Qiao Yelan and asked his questions almost word by word.

"Then how can I believe you? You just made Theresa disappear instead of letting her die?"

"You don't need to believe in me, Tracy, you need to believe in yourself."

Qiao Yelan chuckled.

Tracy's expression changed from confusion, to contemplation, to trembling, and finally to tremendous anger.

"My sister is a card you use to control me. She has always been like that! So as long as I am alive, the stronger my ability and the more powerful my power, the more carefully you will take care of Theresa, because you know that keeping her alive will give you an extra chess piece to use, and letting her die will only bring my wrath - right!!!"

Tracy stood up and almost roared out the last three words. He stared at Qiao Yelan with bloodshot eyes and his hands trembled as if he wanted to tear Qiao Yelan into pieces.

But he didn't.

He just stood there.

He could only stand there.

There is no doubt that the plan given by Qiao Yelan is perfect. It is the only way to allow the Sarkaz to rise secretly under everyone's noses, and no one will be aware of the problem until the last step of the plan is executed.

In order to carry out this plan, Qiao Yelan must stay alive and stand by Theresa's side, blocking all the attacks for her and giving her advice, otherwise his sister will soon die - either by his own sword or by the poison of a traitor.

Of course he could give up this plan, but that would mean that once the news that Theresa was the Demon King spread, Kazdel would be attacked by everyone, and the Sarkaz would be divided internally and then easily wiped out.

They, and the entire Sarkaz clan, will once again regress to two hundred years ago, struggling to survive at the feet of other races.

A hand was stretched out in front of him.

"I wish us a pleasant cooperation, Your Highness Tracys."

The Sarkaz swayed slightly, and his straight back seemed to become a little hunched.

"Wish us a happy cooperation."

Chapter 7: Follow the Dragon? Choose the Emperor!

"Since this is the plan, I have one request - don't let my sister know the truth. In her eyes, I am a guy who broke up with her publicly because I couldn't agree with her political views. Otherwise, her extra feelings will make the plan fail."

Tracy quickly adjusted his mindset.

"Of course. I wanted to say this as well. It seems that you are not blinded by your emotions, Your Highness."

Qiao Yelan was a little surprised and now understood why he emphasized the other person's character in his letter.

If it weren't for the constraints of race and his sister, His Highness Theresis would be no worse than the monarchs he had worked with before.

"So, when should we explode?"

"Later, we will each make some preparations. You must be prepared to accept the means of production left behind after we evacuate, and Babel Tower must prepare Theresa's combat power for her exile."

Qiao Yelan handed a document of Kazdale real estate resources to Tracys. These places were built with great difficulty, including the industrial park under their feet, as well as multiple grain-producing areas and mines. These are places that cannot be easily destroyed.

"Leave some people for me to use, otherwise it will be difficult for me to accept it."

"The grassroots will be left intact to you. You can't take the population with you. For the sake of their families, most people will definitely stay. You just need to arrange for some normal managers to stay, and you will be able to take over quickly. That Manfred is good. He is not a madman who likes to kill people, and he also understands politics."

Tracy looked at the information in his hand intently. What the other party had secretly built over the years could not be destroyed easily.

"As for the timing, I'll wait until I return to Kazdel again. Before the civil war breaks out, I have to go to Leitania first to sort out the connections with the surrounding countries. After all, I haven't done it myself for many years."

"I see. By the way, in order to secretly cultivate strength, I established a guard called the Pardoner. Although it is a bit weird, their strength is genuine. Do I need to deal with them in advance?"

Qiao Yelan was stunned for a moment, as if he had seen this name somewhere.

"Pardoner...Pardoner...Oh, you found it, Quesatusta, the usurper king?"

Watching Qiao Yelan take out a document, Tracy's face showed no expression, but he sighed again in his heart.

Sure enough, what I thought was a perfect concealment turned out to be nothing more than a self-righteous game.

"Yes, he is a very useful ambitious man, and he has always coveted the position of Demon King, but because he is not even one of the Ten Great Courts, he has been researching artificial human technology - I want to use his power to create a Demon King."

"Artificial Demon King... Well, the information is here, but you can't take it away. You can only look at it."

Qiao Yelan found another piece of information.

Tracy's hands were shaking, but he still opened the document.

"Chimera? This isn't..."

"Yes, it is Quisatusta's Chimera technology. This is a technology that is on the right path, but unfortunately, I used a wrong route to exchange the right technology from him - and he seems to have become addicted to the wrong route."

"Wrong route?"

Tracy put down the document that he could no longer understand and asked with some confusion.

"Yes, didn't he create an adult Chimera? The Sarkaz named Salus was just too disappointing in terms of strength, so he has abandoned this technology and instead put all his energy into training his daughter."

"His daughter...the black and white devil sisters?"

Tracy recalled the appearance of the two little girls, and then remembered where Qiao Yelan had just said he was going...

"The twin assassins? The black and white lambs—are those twins your work?"

His shock was palpable.

"I am one of the co-creators. Don't look at me like this. I am quite talented in biology. But as for the twins, I can only be considered one-third of the father. They are the result of the research of me, Fremont and Herhunzollon."

Qiao Yelan said casually.

"Herhunzollon? Isn't that the name of the Witch King of Leithania? He created the twins?"

Tracy's doubts had reached the point where they could be blurted out.

"Yes, that was our work, but the success of the September coup is what puzzles me - because in theory, this coup was carried out entirely under the watchful eyes of Herhunzollon."

"The education we gave to the twins did give them the ability to confront the Witch King head-on, but not now. Instead, they will have to wait five or ten years. Today, their chances of winning against Helhunzollon are estimated to be less than 10%."

A hint of doubt also appeared on Qiao Yelan's face.

"And with the Witch King's arrangement in Vidunia and the Tower of Origin, which is a terrifying weapon in itself, it should be impossible for the rebels to break into the tower. How did they break through the defense of the Tower of Origin?"

For a moment, the only sounds in the office were the breathing of the two people.

"Then if... according to your idea, the rebels did not break into the Tower of Origin, how would things go?"

"According to the original plan, the two rebellious Electors will die in Vidunia, their armies will be leaderless, and then surrender and be incorporated. The twins will be adopted by Herhunzollon, and he will take advantage of the situation when the two Electoral Regions are leaderless to place them in the fold. Under his guidance, one of them will eventually become the next Emperor of Leitania."

Qiao Yelan drummed his fingers on the table.

Theresis was slightly startled, and then he remembered that although Herhunzollon was born in Utica, he had never heard that he had an heir.

Although Leithania is an electoral system, it is not impossible for it to become an empire directly if the Witch King wants.

Because he is the only emperor in a thousand years who has changed the foundation of Leithania.

"Then now..."

"As for now, the two electors must be dead. However, if Herhunzollon is also dead, there must be survivors in the two elector families. In addition, the throne of Leithania is vacant, and the other electors will definitely be ready to make a move."

Qiao Yelan's tone was very flat.

"I have to help an emperor ascend the throne and restore the situation in Leitania."

Chapter 8 Troubled Times

Tracy did not ask Qiao Yelan what to do, although the other party was sitting in front of him, nonchalant like a frivolous young man, but when he said that he could decide who would be the emperor of Leithania, Tracy did not have any doubt or sarcasm about this sentence.

"I remember you said that the twins had a creator, Fremont. This name seems to be the same as the Lord of the Lich King's Court."

"It's him, an old lich. Back then, he, Helhunzollon, and I were like-minded friends. We explored a certain place together - never mind, that's not important."

"You always knew that the Lich King's Court was in Leithania?"

Qiao Yelan looked at Tracy in surprise.

"Lich is the gatekeeper of the Hall of Knowledge - who do you think helped them build that Hall of Knowledge, and who helped them fill it?"

"Our cooperation with the Sarkaz goes back longer than you think. The Cyclops stayed in Sami to guard the Great Void, the Wendigo roamed the frozen wasteland to hunt demons, and the Lich spread knowledge and wisdom on this land."

"All the lords of the ten royal courts whose brains were still functioning left Kazdel long ago. Even the banshees who once fought alongside you did not respond to your call. Don't you realize that there are some problems?"

Tracy remained silent.

He has only found two Lords of the Royal Court so far, one is the King of Scavengers, and the other is the Blood Demon Lord. One only knows how to create offspring and fight, and the other only knows how to go crazy with power and cause rivers of blood.

The former is still obeying orders, but the latter...

"They are unwilling to get involved in Kazdel's disputes..."

"They are well aware that something more troublesome exists in this world."

Qiao Yelan corrected.

"Without Kazdel, the Sarkaz will not perish. Your huge population is destined to keep you alive on this land forever. Look at the Gauls. It has been less than 50 years since they were destroyed. How many people still call themselves Gauls?"

“The reason I’m helping you is because I need to study the [Black Crown]. You call it the Demon King’s Sword, and outsiders call it the Demon King. Anyway, it’s the same thing - so don’t keep holding back and want to explode with us. I have no interest in controlling Kazdel.”

Tracy just remained silent. He had nothing to say now.

After all, if hundreds of years of ambitions and ideals are just a frog in a well to others, being able to remain rational and think is already a sign of outstanding mental ability.

"When I return to Kazdel, I hope to see that you are ready to turn against me."

Qiao Yelan coldly ordered them to leave.

Tracy stood up and left with the document about the construction area of ​​Babel Tower in Kazdel.

After a while, Kal'tsit opened the door.

"Is there any new news from Leitania?"

"Yes - after the Gemini Assassins killed the Witch King and destroyed the Tower of Origin, they stood in the square in front of the tower and played a piece of music for the remaining soldiers. This music resonated with the Golden Rule, so the Golden Rule Guards have sworn allegiance to the Gemini."

"At the same time, due to the 'accidental death' of the Elector of the Heidenschwill region, the Heidenschwill Corps, which had been staying outside Vidunia and trying to reap the spoils, was leaderless. After the twins arrived with the Golden Law Guards, except for a few diehards, the entire Heidenschwill Corps swore allegiance to the twins and regarded them as their leaders."

"But because Shi Tongling's army participated in the siege of the Origin Tower, and Mr. Walna, the successor of Shi Tongling, is still staying in Viduniya with his army, the electors from all over the country believe that the election is not over yet. They are gathering their armies and want to enter Viduniya to continue participating in the election."

Qiao Yelan looked at the information in his hand with a subtle expression. The reaction of the twin assassins was beyond his expectations. Although without the guidance of Helhunzollon, they had already demonstrated certain political skills.

"It seems like they are listening to my class very seriously..."

After making a decision in his heart, he turned to look at Kal'tsit.

"Does that guy named Walner have any cards that can be used?"

"Yes, the second son of Shi Tongling originally had no right of inheritance, so he stayed in Vidunia and met a commoner woman with whom he planned to elope. Before he inherited Shi Tongling, this was not a problem, but now, as a noble, or even one of the electors, if he marries a commoner woman, he will become the target of public criticism."

Kal'tsit took out a piece of personal information from Leitania's folder.

"Where is this civilian woman now?"

"The Outcast team is protecting her, and they haven't been found by Volner yet."

"I will go to Vidunia right away. You stay here and prepare to hand over the fixed assets to Tracys. Also send a message to inform Fremont that I want to have a talk with him."

Qiao Yelan stood up immediately, but his legs went weak and he sat back down.

Kal'tsit immediately rushed over and held him down, preventing him from moving.

"You need rest."
