"Given the alliance's current strength, I don't think we should get involved in the conflict between the two sides." The Aoni Chamber of Commerce proposed.

"But even if we remain neutral, how long can this situation last? Caught between two behemoths, if we waver, we will be disliked by both sides and become cannon fodder and abandoned pawns." said the representative of the Tarsus Chamber of Commerce.

"Although the Black Pine River can transport some troops and supplies, it is still too narrow for the Frost Rose. They will definitely ask us to pass through it later. Should we lend them the passage or not?" the representative of the Tarsus Chamber of Commerce continued.

"If you want to borrow it..." The representative of the Aoni Chamber of Commerce stopped halfway through his words when he felt something was wrong.

"Haha, you have a lot of industries in Frost Rose. I'm afraid that what you expect is Frost Rose ruling New Wilga." The representative of Lamia Chamber of Commerce pointed out.

Among the main members of the alliance, the Aoni Chamber of Commerce is the most eager for the Frost Rose, the Tarsus Chamber of Commerce and the Uriah Chamber of Commerce are indifferent to both, and are wavering. The Lamia Chamber of Commerce is firmly on the side of Crancia because they mainly deal in cashmere, fur, and leather. Crancia and the Gufia grasslands in the north are their most important sources of raw materials. Once war breaks out, the chamber of commerce will be in big trouble.

Among the other three chambers of commerce, the Yagtilin Chamber of Commerce is the smallest. Their industries are basically within the alliance and they don't care much about the situation in the outside world. The Helis family where Melu is located has remained silent and does not express their opinions casually.

At this time, everyone turned their attention to one side of the conference round table, where sat four representatives of Carites. They were the biggest leaders in the alliance and had a great say in the current situation.

Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, a guard in a purple cloak hurried into the venue. He stood beside four representatives and took out a bamboo tube with a wax seal intact. Looking at the dew on it, it must have just been delivered.

After reading the letter in the bamboo tube, as well as the familiar signature and seal, the representatives looked at each other, nodded, and then returned to the conference table.

"Carites's will is to immediately request assistance from the Young Moon Council. The Alliance will enter a state of emergency and be ready for battle at all times to prevent a sudden attack from the Frost Rose."

"Perhaps, their expeditionary fleet is already on the way." The representative of Carites said solemnly.
