The witch thought I am a Demon God

Chapter 853: Chapter 446: Entering the Water Capital and the Ten-Person Council_3

"Have you lost your mind, Ivita Alsace? I’m a diplomat, not a general, and this is the esteemed great Republic, not our battlefield. What right do you have to lay a hand on me? Are you insane? Let me go!"

Akinuo Baros was filled with confusion, disbelief, and wrath.

Ivita looked over at the fountain in the mansion’s great hall, unapologetically saying, "Why can’t I lay a hand on you? Even setting national concerns aside, you show disrespect towards the most powerful wizard in the world."

Ivita’s entire body erupted in a powerful magic aura, a force that also included the power belonging to the Demon God of Subspace.

He, alone, was contesting with the world’s equally formidable magic power, the spirit of the Republic.

Old Witch Papal’s eyes gleamed with admiration at such formidable magic power.

What a formidable wizard he was.

Papal Old Witch had thought she was following a Witch Queen.

At that moment, the skies above the noble Commercial Republic were changing, Ivita’s personal power fighting against the spirit of the Republic of the country.

The sky displayed continuous anomalies, with three solar eclipses occurring in succession.

Then, as Ivita saw the Republic’s spirit mobilizing even more power to attack him in the noble Aristocratic Commercial Republic, he decided it was enough and immediately retracted his magic.

Since Ivita was currently a guest in this country, the Republic’s spirit did not continue its assault on him.

This was simply a necessary display of power by Ivita, so it did not cross the line.

This was also Ivita’s response to the cold reception he’d received from this country.

Akinuo Baros, having seen by now that no one from the Republic had come out to stop their conflict, gradually understood that, as long as Ivita did not kill anyone, the Republic would tacitly condone his actions.

He would not receive protection from the Republic.

Akinuo Baros confronted Ivita menacingly, "I am the envoy of the Empire, representing the dignity of Emperor Oyo III. You are theoretically a vassal of the Emperor, yet you demand that I salute you. This is insubordination!"

Ivita snorted coldly, employing the technique of the Mind Bomb, mingling it with his voice to attack Akinuo Baros’s mind. "Mortal, salute me—a great wizard!"

"This is not about nation-states. It is respect for one who came before."

Grinding his teeth, Akinuo Baros’s mouth filled with blood, but no matter what, in the end, he could no longer hold on. Reluctantly, he knelt on one knee before Ivita and paid his respects.

Ivita laughed coldly, looking up at the envoys of Alsace who had poked their heads out of the staircase to spy on the situation, immediately frightening them into withdrawing their heads.

Once Ivita withdrew his magic power, Akinuo Baros finally gained his freedom.

Akinuo Baros watched Ivita’s retreating figure up the stairs, his eyes brimming with rage. "You can’t use magic in a debate. Just you wait."

"Your barbaric behavior won’t do you any good in winning over this country, you barbarian without a shred of dignity," he spat out.

As Ivita ascended the stairs, the corner of his mouth curled up. "Fools, a debate is all about momentum, and power is the best weapon to persuade the other side."

At this moment, the members of the Ten-Person Council, having watched the conflict between Ivita and the Imperial diplomat Akinuo Baros through the fountain from within the Belltower of the Republic, suddenly looked at one another with recognition.

"It seems we made our decision too hastily before. This prince of Alsace appears not as weak as we imagined."

"He acts arrogant but is very measured—it indeed makes him a fine Monarch."

"With this in mind, we need to reconsider. That Empire’s envoy is so frail, and it even makes me doubt the power of Oyo III. Let us see their argument tomorrow; then we can make our decision. Have someone immediately improve the treatment for the former prince of Alsace and his people!"
