Chapter 1093: Appeal for help
As for the rest of the corpses…
Only the goblin corpses were turned into zombies in the end.
It was too unpredictable what would have happened if the other corpses were turned into zombies, so the prime minister and chancellor didn’t want to take this risk.
But they were still crazy enough to want to turn the goblin corpses into hobgoblin zombies…
That was the complaint that I made in my heart, but I didn’t say it out loud.
Of course, there were just too many corpses for me to revive all of them on the spot. Even if I wanted to, it would be impossible since I would run out of mana before that happened.
This was just how many goblin corpses that they had gathered.
Naturally this wasn’t strange since they were the ones that ran this country. They could mobilize the forces of the equivalent of five small kingdoms. It was easy for them to gather monster corpses like this, especially with the way that monsters were being killed all over the territories of the five countries.
After all of these goblin corpses were turned into hobgoblins, they were brought into the Undead Legion.
It turned out that each of these hobgoblin zombies were actually as strong as the Death Knight that I created, which showed just how powerful the new form of energy created was.
It took a few days for me to finish creating these hobgoblin zombies, but it didn’t seem like they were about to call me back to the capital yet. With the way that no one seemed to come looking for me during this time and how Klein and his men seemed to want to keep me here… It was almost as if they were trying to keep me here so that I wouldn’t get into any trouble. But that didn’t last as someone called me back to the capital in the end.
It seemed that they still needed me for something, which was why they called me back to the capital in the end.
When I arrived in the study, the prime minister threw down a letter on the table and said, “It’s an appeal for help.”
I raised a brow as I didn’t understand what was happening, but I went forward to take the letter from the table and see what was written on it. The moment that I read it, I understood why the prime minister was acting this way.
This letter requesting help was from a country that we had a connection to.
Even though we weren’t able to connect to their lands yet, there was still a connection between us.
That was because this place was where I had gotten a certain item before that had helped me quite a bit.
It was the place where I had gotten the ring of the previous demon king.
This Nergiante Dukedom was also the place that had already sworn that they would follow us.
So now that they had asked us for help, we were obligated to a certain extent to send help to them.
Though there was a small problem there.
It was that we weren’t connected to them, which meant that there was still a kingdom that was between us and the Nergiante Dukedom, even though we had already taken over the four kingdoms around us.
In a time like this where there were monster waves and undead attacking the human race, it wasn’t a time where the human kingdoms would welcome a force from another country entering their borders.
So if we were to try and help the Nergiante Dukedom, there might be the chance of us starting another war.
That was why this situation was a problem and why the prime minister had called me back to the capital like this.
I was the one that had caused this problem by accepting the subservience of the Nergiante Dukedom, so he must want me to solve this.
“Is there no way of negotiating with the Antwerp Kingdom in between us and the Nergiante Dukedom?” I looked at the prime minister as I slowly asked this.
He slowly knitted his brows and shook his head.
He didn’t even say anything, but the look on his face made it clear what he was trying to convey.
“If that worked, would we still need you to come?”
In a way, this could be considered insubordination with how he treated me, but I didn’t mind it at all.
There was a silence that filled the room before I looked at him and slowly asked, “Is there a way that I can…”
“No.” The prime minister and chancellor said at the same time.
Neither of them seemed to be cutting me any slack as they cut me off at the same time like this.
It was as if they weren’t even going to entertain the idea that I was about to propose.
But I knew that it would have been close to impossible for them to agree to it, unless it was a very desperate situation. After all, going by myself to the Nergiante Kingdom was just absolutely crazy and asking for trouble.
It was only natural that they wouldn’t agree to this.
Seeing that I didn’t say anything, the prime minister instead asked, “What if we just give up on them? We can send a few supplies, but there’s no real way that we’ll be able to support
them.”
This time, it was my turn to shake my head as I rejected this suggestion, “I’ve already accepted them, so they can already be considered our allies. At the same time, they are rare allies in this world where our enemies were even from the empires, so we’ll need all the allies
that we can get.”
The prime minister and chancellor knitted their brows when they heard this, but they didn’t refute me in the end since they knew that I was right.
I knitted my brows to think for a bit, but then they suddenly relaxed as my eyes lit up.
“Right, why didn’t I think of this before? It isn’t as if we have to conquer the country ourselves!” I said in an excited voice.
