"Your Highness, do you think we should..."
"You must investigate this matter, no matter how much manpower you use, and then bring back the news."
Now that Sean has seen the Three Pillars of God, he is no longer afraid of meeting the ancient gods. Even if they really appear, they are not impossible to deal with. At least he can fight against the power of the [Gift of the Black Goat] and the [Ruler of Time].
"Understood." Barnier assured Sean.
The footprints of the ancient gods are almost impossible to find, but there are always people in this world who can find clues about them. Sean really wants to understand the secrets behind these things, as well as the confrontation between Yog and Naa. Have the two of them already gathered all the forces to every corner of the world?
Although Sean currently possesses the power of Yog, according to Shub-Niggurath, the battle between the two is not just about this world, but the future of the entire universe.
And there is also that so-called great existence...
What does this have to do with me? Why do I seem so special and able to receive the blessing of this ancient god?
Sean pondered...
Too absorbed in this, Frelia suddenly interrupted.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Oh, it's about this report. You should take a look at it too." Apart from the matter of the ancient gods, Sean did not hide anything from Frelia. The other party knew everything around him, including the division of all the forces in his hands.
This way, if I'm too busy in the future, at least Frelia can continue to help with deployment.
After reading about the two revolutionary soldiers, Sean went on to talk about Dansu's situation.
I told the investigator everything I had seen in Dansu City and what I had discovered...
"Do you have any news about that place?"
After hearing Sean's question, Banier couldn't answer for a while. After all, he had not received any specific information about this matter.
The Survey Corps' intelligence network is now very large, but it takes some time to compile it. Moreover, it seems that the other party has done this matter very cleverly. They have always discovered abnormalities but have not been able to find the trick.
"I've given you the news. I hope to get an answer as soon as possible. This matter cannot be delayed." Sean said.
Since it was his superior's order, Vanir could only nod happily.
"We will find a way to get into the old general's room during this time and investigate. We will give you an answer as soon as possible."
"You must personally monitor this matter. I don't believe what others say!" Sean emphasized again.
"No problem, Your Highness. I will restore you as quickly as possible."
It's rare to see Vanir being so serious. When he was still a count, he needed people, so of course powerful mercenary teams could make conditions with him. Now he has become the head of a legion. If he doesn't follow this way of doing things according to orders, his subordinates will follow suit and it will be impossible to manage them.
"Okay, that's all for today..."
After explaining everything clearly, it was about time for Sean to take Frelia away.
Of course, Vanir personally escorted the two of them to the outside of the manor... but he did not come out, saying that it was not him who was announced as the owner of this place, so it was inconvenient for him to show up.
"I can only send you here, Your Highness."
"Just do what you're supposed to do. These etiquette matters are irrelevant...Apart from the Dansu matter, try to send me intelligence from other places every two weeks. If there's anything urgent, be sure to send it to me as soon as possible."
Today, the Survey Corps has become a very important force in Sean's hands.
With the monetary income from the Claude Factory and Oro City, the military support from Melsusa, and the support of the intelligence network throughout the country, Sean believed that no matter what happened, he would be safe...
There is still a long way to go. We just need to maintain this situation for a few years and wait for the situation in Jagun or the desert to develop slowly.
It is impossible for one person to anticipate all situations.
Many things require waiting and observing to find the opportunity.
Now, the Sun King of Jagun is in his middle age with strong vitality. In this environment, he just needs to maintain stability. The best progress is not to make too many mistakes.
Just wait...
After leaving the Survey Corps Manor in Vanir, Sean did not forget to look back.
"What? Are you still worried?" Frelia said.
"There's nothing to worry about. If I were really worried, I wouldn't have given them such an important position."
The carriage was already waiting at the door, and the two of them got on and drove towards the imperial city.
…………………………
It is already winter in the world, but in the desert the temperature is just a little lower, with occasional rain, and there are no obvious winter characteristics.
But here in Zambutal, it was completely covered in snow...
Ash, Ignia, and Warren were in the northern territory of the Bashalan Empire.
Almost two years have passed, and the shadow of the war between Borg and Bashalan is still there. Although the empire has regained its homeland with the help of Jagun, the north... which was the most populous region back then is still dead, with almost no people except in a few big cities.
There are many abandoned farms in those mountains and forests.
It’s not your fault that people don’t come back. Maybe no one has come back at all!
Some died in the war, some fled south and disappeared, and some other reasons led to some villages and towns being completely empty. The few people who managed to return found that everything had changed and they were dazed at the empty homeland. Over time, they began to move to cities with people.
Without anyone here, it certainly looks desolate.
"Junior sister, are you feeling cold?" Warren asked with a smile.
But Ignia's answer was cold, "It's not cold, I don't feel anything! And this kind of snow shouldn't be cold."
A magic wand was taken out from the gray coat, with a purple pendant hanging on the earlobe. A magic spell was waved over the two people and flames surrounded them.
Not to mention cold, it's even a little hot!
"this……"
“Is that enough?”
"No, Junior Sister... That's enough, that's enough." Warren said helplessly. He was just looking for a topic but didn't expect to get such a reply.
During the two years, Bashalan encountered various problems, and the two could no longer stay in Koga City as local guardian wizards. The riots in the south had just been suppressed and a great famine had occurred. If the entire nation was living a bad life, only the nobles could barely live a better life.
The country's current policy is to return to the north and replant the wastelands in the north. Otherwise, the country cannot sustain its operations relying solely on the little food in the south. Moreover, after the war, Bashalan is no longer as rich as before.
However, recent news has said that other people have been sneaking into some uninhabited areas in the north, so a team of wizards was sent to investigate.
