Chapter 1763 - Safeguard Our Peace
Westin and Dracula pitted themselves against each other. They represented the stand of the two respective strongest powers of the demons, which also showed that the demons themselves could not agree with each other.
The abyss demon and flaming demon representatives glared at each other silently over three trolls.
The war between their tribes had yet to end; hence, they only sent two 9th-tier demons for the meeting. The 10th-tier powerhouses did not dare to leave the Boundless Sea Realm.
The fear demon representative remained silent, seemingly unwilling to join in the argument.
Anyone could tell that the different tribes on the Demon Islands would never come to a consensus before the peace talks. That meant that the terrifying demon allied forces could not be formed.
Under such circumstances, it would just be a joke for any of the demon tribes to declare a racial war, because they would not even be able to defeat the goblins.
“We, the goblins, agree to Chaos City’s suggestion to protect the peace that we have now so that all races will be able to benefit. War would only bring death and calamity. It would not be beneficial for most races,” the goblin representative said to show his support for Chaos City as he stood up.
As a race that was not strong enough, the goblins had been badly hit by the previous racial war. They’d only managed to survive the war and gain a foothold on the Norland Continent because of their extensive underground caverns that were easy to guard but difficult to attack.
The hundred-year agreement had ended. The goblins, who were unable to defend themselves, would naturally be happy to join hands with Chaos City and benefit from it. That was how the railroad from Chaos City to the goblin territory came about.
“We, the dwarves, also agree with Michael. We hope to renew this peace treaty. The Issen Castle has been guarding our piece of land and stayed neutral to all races for so many years. We do not wish to see a racial war start again,” the dwarf representative said as he stood up.
The dwarves had improved in their skills, and had a lot of craftsmen, but were not good at war. At the same time, they did not have enough people in their army, so they could only protect themselves by closing Issen Castle up.
If a war were to persist for years, no one could guarantee that Issen Castle could stay safe forever. Therefore, it would naturally be best not to have war.
“The Falk Tribe and the 72 anti-war orc tribe alliance also agree to renew the peace agreement. We’re against a new racial war,” Connie said calmly as she stood up.
Everyone looked at Connie. This young chief of the Falk Tribe was Isaiah’s youngest daughter. She had garnered quite some attention by replacing Ferdinand to become the Falk Tribe’s new chief previously. The one protecting her would naturally be the Hairless Monk, Rex. Because of him, the Falk Tribe, which was in turmoil, managed to keep its spot as the second-strongest orc tribe. However, judging from her age and strength, she really could not be compared to Auster.
“What rights do you have to represent half of the orc tribes?” Auster looked at Connie fiercely.
“I have the letter of authorization signed personally by the other tribes’ chiefs, and I am the chief of the Falk Tribe. On top of that, I have the conscience of an orc,” Connie said as she took out a letter of authorization filled with signatures.
Auster’s face fell, and he said, “The orcs are one entity. You cannot decide whether we’re going to war or not.”
“Who’s an entity with you? Have I agreed to it?” Connie glanced at Auster, and mocked, “Keep those hypocritical words of yours. If you want a war, sure, but don’t you drag the other tribes down with you. We’re not agreeing to it!”
“Isaiah’s daughter indeed. Despite her age, she doesn’t lose to Auster at all in terms of composure and presence. How rare,” Douglas said as he looked at Connie with admiration.
“Indeed.” Louis nodded in agreement.
The other representatives did not look at Connie condescendingly. For a young lady to return to her tribe triumphantly after everyone in her family had died, it really did not just depend on luck.
Rex looked at Connie dotingly and proudly.
Auster glanced at Rex, and finally sat back down.
The orcs were very strong. They had an army of warriors made up of fearless orcs from the various tribes. However, if half of the orcs refused to go to war, they would not have an advantage over the Roth Empire, and might even be crushed by their steel rides and magic casters.
?Auster clenched his fists tightly. There were a few days left until the peace talks, and Connie had to die before that.
“The Night Elves support Chaos City.” Irina raised her hand, and swept a glance across the various representatives as she coldly said, “Also, since everyone is here today, I would like to add that when we return, if there’s anyone who’s still holding my people in captivity, they’d better send them all back to Chaos City. If I were to go over to fetch them myself… You should ask the representative of the fear demons how Bashir died.”
The various representatives felt as though a knife was held at their throat. They swallowed their saliva nervously while considering quickly going back to check if they had any elves in captivity. If Irina and Alex were to come looking for them, that would be terrible.
The fear demon representative at the side was afraid to speak. Bashir really had not ended up well…
One would rather offend an entire race than offend this woman.
Sally looked at Irina and smiled, but quickly regained her straight face.
Elliot looked rather uncomfortable. The elves were put to shame now that Irina had to stand up for their people.
“The giant dragons have already come to a consensus. Dragon Island wishes for all races to follow the current clauses in the peace treaty and maintain this current situation to prevent another racial war from happening,” Louis said.
“If there’s anyone who wishes to pick up a fight, the Tyranno Dragons are willing to join in,” Franklin said with a smirk.
The restaurant fell silent. Anyone could sense the threatening tone in Louis and Franklin’s words. The various races now had to take into consideration the giant dragons forcefully interfering with whether the peace treaty would be renewed.
Auster’s eyes gleamed. He thought it still would be worth a fight if it was just the Roth Empire. However, if Dragon Island—the Tyranno Dragons at that—was put into the equation, that would not be something the orcs could handle.
The forest troll representative turned to look at the Roth Empire representative team, and was not in a hurry to voice his opinion.
Many other representatives also looked at the Roth Empire representatives who had yet to make their stand. Only the elves, forest trolls, and the Roth Empire had yet to make their stand.
“The elves have no intention to start another racial war. We hope that we could renew the peace accord with the other races and safeguard our peace,” Sally said as she stood up.
“Er…” Elliot looked at Sally in astonishment, nearly jumping off his chair.
