“Your Majesty, all preparations have been completed; we only lack an excuse to act against the Half-Orcs,”

Marquis Sunil said, bristling with murderous intent.

The autumn harvest had just concluded, making it the best time to launch a war.

However, as The First Kingdom of the Continent, Frank Kingdom still needed a facade of legitimacy.

Even if initiating a war against the Different Races, there must be a “just cause.”

Without giving a direct answer, a mere glance from the king was enough to signal understanding.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs Marquis Hesus immediately took over the conversation.

“Three days ago, our diplomatic envoys were attacked in the border area.

Based on the bodies of the assassins left at the scene, it was confirmed to be the doing of the Half-Orcs.

The Department of Foreign Affairs has already issued a demarche to the Half-Orc Kingdom demanding the surrender of the perpetrators, but to this day, we have not received a satisfactory response.

The deadline has now passed, and the diplomatic efforts made by the Kingdom for the peace of the Continent have ended in failure.

Now we can only adopt extraordinary measures to let the evil Half-Orcs know that our Frank Kingdom will not be humiliated!”

From the peculiar expressions of everyone present, it was evident that they were unaware of the ‘envoy assassination case.’ Clearly, it was a scheme hastily concocted by the Department of Foreign Affairs to fabricate a pretext for war.

If they were all oblivious, then the Half-Orcs were even more clueless—receiving a diplomatic demarche out of the blue, it would be surprising if they could actually hand over the criminal.

Whether the Half-Orcs are confused or not is immaterial; once the accusation is made, whether they admit it or not, it won’t affect the final outcome.

After all, when it comes to the Different Races, any excuse will suffice; there’s no need to be so serious.

According to the plan, after this war ends, the Half-Orc Kingdom will be erased from the map, and the dead cannot speak on their behalf.

“Despicable Half-Orcs, daring to attack the Kingdom’s envoys!

Your Majesty, please order our troops to severely punish this evil race that provokes the dignity of the Kingdom!”

After Duke Bergson, Prime Minister, finished speaking, the ministers responded in droves.

In the blink of an eye, the Half-Orcs became the most evil race on the Continent, necessitating their complete eradication.

“If we go to war against the Half-Orc Kingdom now, how will the other Kingdoms of the Continent react?”

Charles III asked with concern.

Even though the war had not yet begun, in the eyes of Charles III, the Half-Orc Kingdom had already been sentenced to death; a dead enemy can be safely ignored.

Such arrogance naturally stems from strength.

After years of oppression and bleeding, the Half-Orc Kingdom had been severely weakened.

Especially because not long ago, the Half-Orc Kingdom had just suffered a massive locust plague, leading to an almost total crop failure this year.

There is no room for sentimentality in the struggle for the survival space of species.

To strike while the enemy is sick and vulnerable is just standard procedure.

The Human Race managed to rise from a marginal small tribe to the peak of the Continent by seizing opportunities.

Through victory in war after war, the Human Race crafted its glory today, but it is still not enough!

Being the lord of the Continent pales in comparison to having sole dominion over it; leaving the Different Races around is always a threat.

Over the past years, the hatred between the Human Race and the Different Races has deepened to the bone through countless wars, with no possibility of easing.

It’s not that there were no efforts to seek peace, but unfortunately, when the last great unified Empire of the Human Race collapsed, the Different Races formed an alliance and launched a major counteroffensive.

All allies and subordinates of the Human Race at that time betrayed their pacts and joined the Alien Coalition, completely burying the last vestiges of trust between the two sides.

“Rest assured, Your Majesty!

Everything is going according to plan.

We have reached an agreement with the Iberia Kingdom, Dante Kingdom, Clergy, Black Forest Kingdom…

Everyone will wage war against the Different Races simultaneously.

Apart from the countries of the Northern Continent, the entire Human World will be involved in this war, and we already have an absolute advantage.

Unless the Elf Race, Ancient tribes, and the severely weakened Orcs decide to break out and fight alongside each race for survival at the very beginning of the war, the collapse of the Alien Coalition is just a matter of time.

After years of effort, the Alien Coalition has already been fragmented and dissolved by us from within.

They will not be able to cooperate sincerely and put aside suspicions until the final moment of life and death.

Our leniency in the recent war against the Orcs and our misleading of many have led many races within the Alien Coalition to believe that the upcoming Continental war, like those in the past, is just to deplete the surplus population.

As long as we can baffle them in the early stages of the war, by the time several Different Races are vanquished, it will be too late for them to band together for survival even if they realize the danger.

However, there are still risks.

Once the Continental war erupts, the constricted Orcs may very well make a comeback, and the newly established Prairie Seven Kingdoms might not be able to hold their ground.

The Warhammer Kingdom, amidst civil strife, is also in a perilous position and might be annihilated by the Ancient tribes and Elf Race in the slightest misstep.

Currently, there is only one and a half powers remaining on the Northern Continent with any strength: the Alpha Kingdom and Moxi Duchy at best can only protect themselves, and are unlikely to stop the Three Major Alien Races!

The greater problem is that the Alpha Kingdom has not recognized the threat of the Different Races, pouring a lot of its effort into preventing the Black Forest People from taking advantage during this chaos,”

Marquis Hesus analyzed rationally.

The Human Race’s power in the Northern Continent is at its weakest, yet it faces the strongest of the Different Races.

If it weren’t for the Elf Race lacking the will to fight, the Northern Continent would have long been under the control of the Different Races.

“After the war breaks out, someone should remind Caesar IV, though the effect might not be significant.
