Chapter 578: War council -5

"A century?" Robin laughed as if he heard a funny joke, "Let me remind you of something else here, you are measuring this against Hoffenheim, who you fought for 6 years and I killed him for you in the end, but you should all know that he was fighting you with 20% of his usual soul force, if he still had his full control over two million buds as he in his best shape, our losses would have doubled at the very least, right? What if the Five Tree Fathers had full power in this equation? And what if I refused to help destroy their souls this time?"

"This... Tree Father Hoffenheim's control was really painful to deal with, but as your Excellency said, this would only have caused us more losses and would not have changed the final result, and do not forget that we were within his domination circle and under his complete surveillance all the time, and we could not even fly freely or use our Draco flock, while now we have lands that belong to us! But Your Excellency is right, we have to assume the worst, because when the war begins and if we try to enter the lands of the Tree Fathers, we will have to deal with their special abilities as well within their domination circle, so is we took this into consideration and doubled the danger to the rest of the Tree Fathers five times that of Hoffenheim, and we assumed that we had to destroy all their forces and besiege their real bodies only without any intervention on Your Excellency side, then... Your Excellency, this war will extend for a third or even a fourth century. I fear that this will not be a war, but rather a long-term enmity, We should even think about settling here!!" Alexander spoke weakly. He knew very well that this was not what His Excellency wanted to hear, but he must tell the truth

Robin shook his head, and looked at the rest of the generals and officers, "Are you all thinking the same? That the war will take centuries? Should we just forget about the destruction of the Tree Fathers for now and relax in a defensive position forever? Maybe we should also move forward a few meters every year and dig trenches to cut their roots like the locals do!"

Everyone remained silent. General Alexander's words were indeed accurate and could even be said to be a bit optimistic, but Victoria spoke in her usual sharp voice, "Brother Alexander's scale is indeed accurate, but that is if we assume that no development will occur on both sides for hundreds of years, this is just a preliminary estimate that will collapse with any major change in the balance."

"That's it!" Robin snapped his fingers and pointed at Victoria then returned to look at everyone at the table, "I want you to do your best with what is available to you and always put your hope in the development department of the Empire, and until Jabba finishes establishing that department, put your faith in me. From this moment on, the war on Greenland is entirely your mission, I will not intervene personally in anyone's fight, even if new warlords appear, you will have to take care of them yourself, understand? My mission will be to provide you with more advantages from back lines and watch your progress! I will give you the weapon designs and you create them, I will draw up the Rune blueprints and you draw them, I will create new techniques, and you use them!"

Alexander gave a military salute and quickly replied, "Of course, it is understood, Your Excellency. Your Excellency made it clear that we needed to gain experience, and your two direct interventions in the war were enough to declare our failure, but..." Then he looked back down.

"But what?" Robin furrowed his eyebrows

"I fear that developments will not always be in our favor." Alexander shook his head, "There is an urgent report for Your Excellency to decide on, I wanted to save it for last but the subject is already opened."

"Do tell, what happened?"

"I prefer this conversation to be a little private..." Alexander looked at the end of the table

Robin looked at his general for a few seconds, then nodded and looked at Fugon and the rest of the tribesmen, "As you heard, there are things that the members of the Empire need to listen to, you need to decide what you want."

*Scratch* *Scratch*

Before Fugon and the rest could say a word, the dagger jumped and began moving across the table again.

"This..." Fugon, Debas, and Hadyar finally opened their eyes at the same time

The dagger had just erased their old borders, but instead of leaving them annexed to the Empire's territory, the dagger created new borders for the three tribes, this time nearly tripling the size of their territory.

Three scrolls then flew out of Robin's head and quickly found their way into the hands of the three tribe leaders, before Robin said, "This is your share of spoils, I will only give you three minutes. Reject everything and declare your loyalty to me, or take it, thank me for my fairness, and fuck off already."

"This.. This..." Tribe Leader Debas began to mutter in a low voice as he began to read his scroll checklist, and the rest of the Tribal members quickly followed suit...

The amount of energy stones, resources, and even ancient plants that Robin had allocated to him could buy their tribes, including themselves, several times over!

Of course, Chief Debas did not see the full list of the spoils and does not know what percentage of his share of the total that the Empire found, but does this matter? They were all fighting out of fear of Robin and because they wanted to kill Hoffenheim, they had no hope of taking anything! Who in a position of power like Emperor Robin could give up all those precious items, especially since he came mainly for the sake of conquest and resources?

Is he so fair that he won't break his word to his enemies... or does he simply think he can get everything back after he declares war on them? Either way, this is very scary.

"I... we..." Chief Debas put the scroll on the table again and went back to stuttering

"Two minutes left," Robin said coldly

Robin's words terrified all the tribesmen, and they terrified Billy more than them, who in turn quickly said: "Brother Debas, the rest of the brothers are here... The human alliance will do you no good, and the Tree Fathers want you dead today before tomorrow. Look out for your own interests first, you, you are not stupid and you know where your interests lie, so take advantage of this opportunity. If you leave the hall today, even I will not be able to help you!"

"...I..." Debas mumbled again. Heavy sweat began to fall from his hair like rain, and the veins on his face began to twitch slightly.

"One minute left." Robin declared

*Thud*

As if Robin's voice had pressed a button in his head, Debas could only feel himself moving from his seat and kneeling on the ground, "The Plains Tribe salutes Your Excellency and requests to join the Empire!"

Leader Hadyar felt like he was missing something when he looked sideways and found his companion on the ground. With one step and without knowing it, he found himself kneeling beside him, "The Nightbirds Tribe salutes Your Excellency and requests to join the Empire!!"

"Hahaha excellent you guys, excellent! I knew you would choose wisely." Billy stood up and started clapping warmly. From his point of view, he had just contributed to saving millions of lives

"You all..?!" As for Fogon, he remained standing there, looking at his two old long-distance friends lost, not knowing what to do... His foot wanted to take a step and kneel, and his pride told him to fight for freedom until his last breath.

"Ten... nine... eight... seven...."

*Ba-dum*

"I-I... I..!! Fugon involuntarily took a few steps back, Robin's indifferent eyes seemed to stare directly into his soul.

*PAA!!*

At that moment, Fugon felt someone pressing his shoulders down until his knees hit the ground, and then he heard him say in a familiar voice: "The Northern Fury Tribe salutes Your Excellency and requests to join the Empire!"

"Ellis, even you..?" Fugon was shocked when he looked next to him and saw the perpetrator. He sighed in peace remained silent and kneeled in his place. At least it was not him who knelt and declared loyalty, he could blame his daughter later and say that he went along with the situation for her sake.

But he heard something that made his intestines twist again, "...Three...Two..." Emperor Robin did not stop the countdown!!

Before the count reached one, Fugon raised his head slightly, then slammed it back into the ground forcefully and shouted at the top of his voice, "THIS LOWLY MAN SALUTES HIS EXCELLENCY AND REQUESTS TO JOIN THE EMPIRE!!"
