"Laine City?"

Everyone was stunned.

The little swan said blankly:

"Impossible, trying to reach Laine City just by running, you'd run your legs off and still couldn't make it from the Lokeshi Border to Laine City, there's not enough time."

Louis calmly said:

"That means he must have come through a teleportation array."

As soon as he said this, everyone turned their gaze back to Akam.

Akam was dripping with cold sweat:

"Let me have someone look into it."

Everyone nodded.

Louis even wanted to wipe Akam's cold sweat.

The awkward thing now is that for a teleportation array to transport people, coordination between countries is necessary.

Especially the documentation provided by the starting point.

Louis clearly remembered, Beatrice had mentioned incidents involving teleportation arrays across countries before, and had explicitly pointed out various adverse outcomes from not upholding procedural justice in the arrays.

It's precisely because of this that the data review for teleportation arrays in each country is extremely rigorous.

Although Louis and others did not mention the exact time, merely looking at Olivia's expression, it was clear the time was not long.

This means that the spy from the Abyssal Church, after contacting the deadly sin of Envy from the assassination unit, shortly thereafter set off for the Ense Empire.

This implies a terrifying possibility, that there might have been a major incident within the main department responsible for the Lokeshi Empire's teleportation array.

Because it was too fast.

Even if there was mutual coordination, to complete the related documentation review in advance, it would require an application to be submitted two days prior.

This advanced preparation was typically handled only when a princess like Beatrice was planning to visit another country.

This was a result of high-level communication.

The regular review time required for a cross-national teleportation array is at least a week.

From advance application to official activation, it actually requires a lot of manpower and resources.

By backtracking the time, Louis knew that the time Chloe met this deadly sin was merely two days before he himself met him.

Taking into account the time needed for transit within the Ense Empire, it's almost certain that this deadly sin left the Lokeshi Empire within a day of meeting Chloe.

The speed was too fast!

As if someone had prepared in advance.

No, it should be said, it was highly likely someone had prepared in advance.

"Is the enemy within Lokeshi?"

Akam painfully tousled his hair.

He didn't think Caesar, this legendary figure, would lie about something like this, especially since Ense is still implementing the execution clauses of the "Honor Declaration Treaty" with Lokeshi.

The "Honor Declaration Treaty" was signed twelve hundred years ago by the two nations to jointly resist a world-sweeping calamity.

The treaty stipulates an alliance in defense and offense in relation to world-class disasters concerning both countries.

Approximately 700 years ago, Tunisia also joined this treaty.

112 years ago, the Am Empire, with humans as the mainstream group, also officially announced its entry.

Of course, the Lokeshi Empire was not the first to sign this treaty with Ense.

It was the Ancient Monai Kingdom over three thousand years ago that first signed the treaty.

However, over two thousand years ago, the capital of the Ancient Monai Kingdom was directly blasted into the sky by "that thing."

The twisted chaos of the space formed the most perilous place on the continent, the "Eye of Fear."

This directly led to the demise of the Ancient Monai Kingdom.

Then for the next eight hundred years, East and West Monet Kingdoms, split into two, engaged in both internal and external conflicts, initiating the 400-year-long "Monet Conflict."

Prolonged warfare made the once powerful kingdom exceedingly frail.

Realizing that if the battle continued, it was uncertain whether East and West Monet could even continue existing, let alone reunification.

So, during the following two hundred years, the two countries embarked on a long recovery period.

This recovery greatly alleviated the tense situation between the two nations.

In order to regain considerable prestige on the continent, the two Monet began to rebuild the treaties of the Ancient Monai Kingdom.

As expected, unreasonable treaties were disregarded, while reasonable ones were maintained.

Among them, the "Honor Declaration Treaty" was an important treaty promoted jointly by the two countries.

These five nations together form the five leading countries of the present "Honor Declaration Treaty."

Subsequent generations refer to the treaty's five countries as the Five-Person Union.

Meaning the alliance among the five major human nations.

It's said that Am's O5 Council modeled itself after the interest pattern of the treaty's five countries, evolving into a youthful version of the power structure.

Of course, it's quite the big nation joke that the Five-Person Union has six countries.

Though East and West Monet Kingdoms dispute with one another, they are well aware that in some crucial instances, if the two countries don't unite, they could find themselves with no basis for negotiations with other top nations, and might not even have a seat at the negotiating table.

So this time, with the Shadow Country incident erupting, they dispatched people to suppress potential dangers, putting aside their prejudices and acting as a unified whole.

Other countries also know that the number of Necromancers in the lands of Monet is exploding.

In some special battlefields, the roles of these Necromancers are exceedingly beneficial.

Thus, they naturally don't mind Monet's participation.

It should be noted that the reason East Monet and West Monet can maintain a certain degree of independence today, developing together, is based on them inheriting the main relationship of the "Honor Declaration Treaty."
