Chapter 1933: Alliance

That night, many people were destined to have a sleepless night.

Mag stood by his study’s window, and looked at the quiet square outside. He, too, couldn’t sleep for a long time.

Although he had been striving hard from the moment he’d come to this world, and became a demigod who towered over all other powerhouses from a person who couldn’t even lift a thing, he still felt helpless in front of those real giants.

He wanted to give Amy and Annie a peaceful future to grow up in, without being forced to drift around in times of war.

He believed he could bring some different changes to this world if he was given another 100 years.

The rise of Chaos City had proven that the merging and peaceful coexistence of all the races wasn’t impossible. As long as all the parties had the will to accomplish it, perhaps the Norland Continent would achieve a real unification, and eliminate the possibilities of restarting the racial war.

And now, pushing for the signing of the peace accord and the continuation of another 100 years of peace was the most important matter.

Mag turned around to get back to the desk. He took a pen and paper to write down a few names, and began to sort out the current situation with a frown.

The Roth Empire was the biggest catfish in the pond, which was the Norland Continent, now. Apart from the giant dragons and the Demon Islands at the Boundless Sea Realm, none of the other races could rival the Roth Empire in battle. Wherever the Roth Empire chose to conquer, it would only be a one-sided war.

The elves’ power was greatly diminished after the Night Elves’ rebellion. They were having a headache over the increasing internal fissures. They already had a problem to protect themselves, so they could forget about taking the initiative to start the racial war.

However, the elves had been very close with the Roth Empire in the past few years. If Andre promised to give Helena some benefits, one couldn’t rule out the possibility of her following his lead.

The orcs had been enemies with the Roth Empire for generations. They were powerful as a whole, but they were split into two factions now. The faction with the Aug Tribe in the lead, who preferred war, and the faction with the Falk Tribe in the lead, who preferred peace, were almost equally powerful in all aspects. After Auster lost an arm, their power to invade others was limited.

Initially, the demons’ power had been just below the giant dragons’. However, after Mag and Irina stirred things up, their internal division was even worse than the orcs’. The war between the Abyss Demons and the Flaming Demons was still going on. Their tribes couldn’t work together, so they didn’t have the capability to fight with others.

The forest trolls had always kept a low profile. Their racial benefits were only under the giant dragons. They were generally strong as individuals, but there were not many of them. Although there were rumors about them working with the Roth Empire, given their introverted character, it was still unknown if they would really collaborate with the Roth Empire.

The goblins had been growing sneakily in the underground caverns. Their power didn’t grow much in the past 100 years, and they still ranked at the bottom. They already collaborated with Chaos City, and also supported the continuation of the peace treaty.

The underground caverns that had been developed for years were difficult to attack but easy to defend. They had already formed an underground world with a complete system. They had good self-preservation ability even if the racial war started.

The dwarves depended on the exportation of their skills, and had a huge market share in weapons and construction. They had made huge earnings in the past 100 years, so they were naturally supporting peace. They could be considered as standing on the same side with the goblins and Chaos City.

As for the giant dragons, who were the most powerful as a whole, although the many dragon tribes with Louis and Douglas in the lead had declared that they would continue to sign the peace treaty along with Chaos City, the internal structure of the giant dragons wasn’t a solid whole. There were still a few families within the giant dragons who had remained silent. Nobody knew their attitude.

The giant dragons occupied Dragon Island and the most fertile lands on the Norland Continent. Would they really stand on the same side as Chaos City and go against the Roth Empire once the racial war restarted? It was a problem they needed to consider.

If the Great Old Ones hadn’t suddenly appeared, perhaps the giant dragons on Dragon Island wouldn’t have cared who would be leading the world under Dragon Island.

“Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.” This sentence was applicable to all the races on the Norland Continent too.

Mag calculated again carefully. Besides himself, he only had Lantisde.

The connection that he barely maintained through Babla was, in fact, not stable. After all, Babla didn’t know about his other identity, and would never get the Moon Nation involved in the Norland Continent’s fight for interests.

Lantisde and Mag’s relationship was relatively more stable because he helped them break the curse. This could ensure that Lantisde would take his side at the critical time.

As for Irina’s Night Elves, those elves had belonged to the bottom echelons of the Wind Forest. They were more suitable to act as a workforce. Including them as combat power was actually a shameful thing.

So far, the pro-war Roth Empire was aggressive, and the peace alliance seemed quite strong, but whether they could work together still needed to be tested.

The greatest unforeseen event would be the forest trolls and the demons’ emergence. No matter which one of them decided to side with the Roth Empire, the situation would have a very bad change.

“The forest trolls’ current chief commander is Bruno. Perhaps I should go meet him before the peace meeting begins.” Mag drew a circle over the forest trolls, and his gaze gradually turned clearer.

The Roth Empire was powerful, so why couldn’t the weaker factions like the dwarves and goblins and Chaos City form an alliance?

Chaos City, the goblins, and dwarves had basically formed an alliance now, and Mag could bring Lantisde into the alliance. Together with the pro-peace orc tribes’ alliance with the Falk Tribe in the lead and power of the giant dragons with the Golden Dragons and Frost Dragons in the lead, as long as they could come to establish a formal contract before the peace meeting, it could become a heavy bargaining chip to negotiate with the Roth Empire.

“Seems like the city lord’s castle has strategists too, but their implementation wasn’t complete. A loose alliance can be easily broken apart by interests. We have to make all the races make their decisions and sign a more restrictive treaty.” Mag took out a pen and paper, and began to write invitations.

That night, Mag went to the city lord’s castle quietly.

He and Michael talked for over an hour before they reached a consensus. They decided to set up a formal peace alliance before the peace meeting.

“The contract that you three parties signed was a little too small-minded.” Mag put down the document in his hands, and took out a new document. “This is the treaty that I have drafted. We should use the matter of the devil as a focus, and deem it as the crisis of the entire Norland Continent. We will use it to urge all the races to put aside their differences and deal with the devil together, and not let our potential diminish in the racial war, and let the devil take advantage.”

Michael read through it seriously, and his eyes slowly lit up. In the end, he couldn’t help but praise, “Marvelous!”

He took the documents, and said to Mag, “I will let my people come up with the formal contract immediately with yours as the template!”

“Alright, but we have to do this as soon as possible. We don’t have much time left.” Mag nodded.

“Alright. Louis and Douglas are both here, and all the various representatives have certain power of discourse. I will gather them together tomorrow first and discuss this matter.” Michael nodded. He knew the importance of this contract. Once the contract was signed, Andre would be the one to have a headache..
