Indeed, the magical medicine ingredients he requested before have already been turned into a Magic Potion…

He must have already surpassed my alchemy skills by then,”

the blond youth murmured to himself, “Even if it was a risky breakthrough, he succeeded…

taking a step ahead of me.”

“A sixteen-year-old at the Second Energy Level…

worthy of Ian indeed.”

With such emotions,

within five minutes, Master Gossay and Yisen Gard departed from the Imperial Capital, speeding toward the Avak Domain on a flying vehicle.

They soon arrived at the scene and transferred the ‘seriously injured’ Ian back to the Imperial Capital.

Everything seemed so natural.

And then, the world witnessed a change.

…

A calm male voice rose from the broadcast.

“On Terra year 773 September 19, the aberrant catastrophe that occurred in the Sorin Duke’s Domain within the Western Territory, the Avak Viscounty, has been identified.

It was caused by the loss of control in a large-scale Spirit Energy laboratory, jointly overseen by Viscount Avak and Fiery Flame Land.

This experimental site was actually Fiery Flame Land’s central base in the Western Territory, and the development of various biological weapons—including but not limited to Collapsing Root Fungi, Mad Mist, Blackleaf Fungus, Flutterleaf Insect, and other related creatures—began here and spread to other areas of our country.”

“This has already caused significant harm to the Imperial People.

The residents of the Western Territory and the surrounding area of South Ridge will not overlook the magic beast attacks on humans that have occurred periodically in the last seven or eight years.

Indeed, magic beasts are dangerous, but they are confined to their habitats.

As long as we do not venture into hazardous areas, magical beasts absolutely will not invade human territories.

This has been a fragile relationship maintained with creatures that have a certain level of Wisdom.”

“However, under the destruction of Fiery Flame Land, such a balance has been destroyed.

They intended to create an army of mad magical beasts within the Bison Mountain Range to sever the connection between Nanling Province and Imperial Center, and at that time, launch a brazen invasion to carve a path through the Golden Prairie.”

“Their deranged actions have met with retribution.

A righteous, unnamed researcher opposed Fiery Flame Land’s atrocities.

He sought to stop the Fiery Flame Land from experimenting on a Spirit Energy Weapon of great lethal potential at Avak’s Central Research Laboratory within the Empire Domain.

He succeeded, but also failed.”

“The Spirit Energy Weapon exploded within the laboratory, causing a massive Domain of Void phase transition.

Several cities within Avak Viscounty were affected, and all inhabitants died.

The number of survivors is exceedingly small, mostly consisting of those lucky enough to have left the center of the blast before the catastrophe erupted.”

“At this point, the actions of Fiery Flame Land can only be described as utterly deranged.

But they were not yet satisfied.

Their leader, King Kador of Heavenly Torrent, in pursuit of the dangerous Spirit Energy Weapons left in the laboratory, engaged in an aerial battle over Avak Domain with our country’s Second Prince Michael and was ludicrously defeated.

According to the Holy Mountain Pact, Fourth Energy Level warriors defeated in a Heart Light Body conflict are not allowed to continue fighting.

Yet, he breached the pact, continuing to strike, trying to erase the evidence, and after his defeat, he kept attacking, completely destroying the Central area of Avak Domain.”

“This is an act of provocation against the Empire, and we will not tolerate it.”

“Viscount Avak himself is a traitor to the Empire and an anti-human element who should be eradicated.

However, the residents of Avak Domain remain citizens of the Empire.

Their deaths deeply grieve us.

Let us observe a three-minute silence in their honor.”

“The moment of silence concludes.”

“Next, we invite His Highness Michael to make a speech.”

A clear and magnetic male voice now sounded.

“Citizens of the Western Territory and South Ridge.

I am Michael Setar.”

“We have just lived through an extremely difficult time.

Over the last decade, Fiery Flame Land carried out resolute infiltration and interference operations against our country, whether through biological warfare or merely through espionage and sabotage; Fiery Flame Land’s special forces have subjected us to severe turmoil and loss.”

“All the events that took place within these ten years were even more painful than the desert standoff against Fiery Flame Land during the Former Emperor’s era, because at that time, we were not passive in the face of attacks.

When the enemy invaded, we struck back; when the enemy made moves, we retaliated.

But during these ten years, we hadn’t even realized that all this pain was inflicted on us by Fiery Flame Land, we were still uncertainly self-doubting, wondering if it was our fault that all this happened.”

“This caused tremendous social unrest; even some began to doubt if it was the Empire’s development policy for the primitive regions that brought upon us some kind of retribution, which made mothers weep, fathers mourn, our children left without elders and our elderly gazing empty at their chairs.

It seemed as if we should stand still, do nothing, and just wait for the fruits to fall from the sky.”

“Citizens, I want to tell you now: all of this was caused by Fiery Flame Land.

All the pain of these ten years, all the turmoil, whether it’s rotting fields, rioting magical beasts, inexplicably deserted villages, or the disappearance of numerous merchant caravans and travelers, they were all part of Fiery Flame Land’s operations.

They cannot stand by and watch us continue to expand our territories, develop our resources.

They cannot bear to see us become prosperous and powerful again, to become once more the greatest country on Terra.

These clowns wanted to break us, using the darkest methods and the most malicious means to sever our roots, to tear through our pillars.”
