"Everyone, war is imminent!"
"If we want this territory to survive this war, or even move forward..."
"We must give it our all!"
Hearing Lynn's words, Erelo Wesley and the others were solemn.
In unison, they said, "Yes, my lord."
Lynn spoke, "You may all withdraw."
Upon receiving Lynn's directive, Rose Elero and the others refrained from any further words.
They bowed in acknowledgment and retreated towards the back.
As the sound of footsteps faded away, the reception hall fell into silence.
Looking at the empty reception hall,
Lynn still frowned in thought.
But soon.
Lynn pushed the distracting thoughts out of his mind.
Even if the Karedi Empire descends into a war for imperial authority.
Even if the entire Empire is engulfed in flames of war.
Even if outside the territory the common people are suffering.
With the defensive structures currently built on his territory and the number of soldiers he has.
