“HUH?! The country the Empire is planning to invade… is this country? Eh? It’s the Kingdom?” Carlos was shocked.
He thought the invasion they were talking about was just somebody else’s problem.
Turned out his own country was the very target of that upcoming attack.

 

“Rather than planning to invade… I suppose saying ‘in the middle of invading’ is more correct.”

 

Joshua replied calmly till the end.
He was sure Joanna went to the Royal Castle’s treasure house to grasp the location of magic stones.
So that after the Empire invaded, she and her cronies would be able to get their hands on them smoothly.
But,

 

“But you know, the problem is the Kingdom almost has no magic stones left.”

 

The nobles squandered them all when the last magician appeared.
They wasted such precious magic stones to satiate their vanity, with no other substantial reason.

 


“WHATTT?! Then… aren’t we going to be attacked for nothing?! I’m leaving for the Empire now! I will tell them the Kingdom has no magic stones, so not to invade us!”

 

“Right.
I don’t think they will believe you, though? Also, you’ll be flamed if you go ahead and mention the word ‘invasion’ before them saying it first, so you’d better stop.”

 

Joshua calmed Carlos down by saying that the Empire people were great at picking faults to the point of being ridiculous.

 

“But what should we do then… We don’t stand a chance against the Empire, you know?”

 

Carlos fell in despair.
As a spy stationed in the Empire, he knew well the disparity in power between the two countries.

A country with many magicians and a country with zero magicians… You didn’t need to think hard to tell there would be a 100-200 years gap in technology.

Readers’ Corner:

Reader A’s comment

Although everything will turn out fine somehow as long as the cats are around, the new member Over-kun seems like he will do a great job this time.

The Empire, the landing land of Over’s flying barrage of bullets.

A war movie, maybe?

 

Author’s reply

Over: Fufufu, you’re greatly mistaken if you think Over’s arc is over.

The cats and tailless whip scorpions attacking the Imperial army…

A monster movie, maybe?
