Chapter 1817: Shadow War (Part 1)

Lith had just noticed a skeletal draconic ?gure that looked like a Lich r ight beside Aalejah when Feela stood up and gestured them to a pproach the Council.

On top of that, mana sense revealed that both Athung and Aalejah had d eep violet streaks covering their cores, showing that by pooling t heir knowledge they had come close to discovering the secret of the v iolet core.

"Let's take a break for now." The voice of the Behemoth echoed t hroughout the room, putting an end to the debate. "Our main guests h ave arrived and I want to hear everyone‘s opinion before the Council m akes the ?nal decision."

Much to Lith's surprise, Feela wasn't just pointing at him but at Tista a s well.

"l was glad to hear that you joined the war efforts of the Kingdom,

Lith.“ The Behemoth said. “Because the Council needs you as well but f or a much more important mission than conquering a measly castle.

"Today, we are going to write history." Her words were met with e nthusiasm from the Council members and indifference from Lith's g roup. _{fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm}

"With all due respect, Feela, but the war has started months ago and t his is the ?rst time that l hear anything about the Council playing an a ctive role in it. l know what happened during the night Thrud made h er move and of your plans about training your own army, but that's i t."

He looked at Athung, with whom he had assumed to be on good t erms, at Feela, who still helped him to train his Tiamat form, and e ven at Leegaain.

"l'm the one who discovered Glemos' alliance with Thrud and Meln. I w arned you all about their intention of wiping out the Council and t aking your resources for themselves, yet so far you have washed y our hands of this war.

"lf you want my help for anything else, you need to tell me what m akes this mission so important."

The Regional Lords sneered at him while the Council representatives c huckled at his naivety. lnxialot the Lich King who had been p leasantly working on his research until a second ago, rose his head f rom the notes and misunderstood the situation.

"Off with the head! Why do we have to always judge this idiot? Let‘s k ill him and avoid any further problems."

The chuckles turned into exasperated sighs as Raagu repeated him f or the umpteenth time why they were there and what they were d oing. For some reason, she was the only one lnxialot listened to.

"l can understand your anger. This war has already taken away s omeone you cared about and the Dead King has relentlessly attacked y ou over the past few years." Feela said. "Yet the Council didn't sit idly a s you think.

"ln the past, there have been countless madmen that by chance d iscovered our existence and tried to enslave or kill us, but they a lways failed. This time it will be no different.

"You see, after the start of the war, we have withdrawn the bulk of our f orces not only to train them, but also to use them to gather i ntelligence." She pointed at the locations of the Undead Courts that t hey had discovered and even that of the Golden Griffon.

"Also, we never washed our hands of this ?ght. The Council has h elped the Royals from behind the scene just like the Dead King does f or Thrud."
