  Andre stood up slowly, and looked at everyone as he said, “A century has passed. The Norland Continent is no longer what it used to be. The peace treaty that was drafted back then is no longer applicable. The Roth Empire requests for territories to be reassigned based on the different races’ capabilities just like back then.”


  The various representatives had different expressions upon hearing that. No one replied.

  Mag looked at Andre, and lamented to himself.

  From a historical point of view, Andre could be considered a good leader. In his 30 years of reign, the Roth Empire was prosperous, and the people lived well. The country’s capabilities improved by leaps and bounds with their military resources, their metal rides, and a large number of capable magic casters.

  On top of that, he was a leader with ambition. He waited for his chance so that he could fight for more territories and living space for the people of the Roth Empire at the peace talks.

  Back then, during the racial war, the humans had paid a heavy price before they finally had the rights to sit at the peace talks.

  As they were really weak, they were only given a piece of barren land.

  The humans worked, with their bare hands, to turn that barren land into a fertile piece of farmland, and built city after city.

  Judging by the speed of human reproduction, the Roth Empire no longer had enough land among their territories. It seemed only right to ask for more land with his current capabilities.

  In that case, Mag might not have stopped the humans from expanding as it was only reasonable.

  But Andre was not one to be satisfied with enough land for all his people. What he wanted was the world to bow before him. He wanted too much, and that naturally crossed the bottom line for many races. That was why the racial war could restart.

  Louis looked at Andre with a frown, and said, “Andre, the current urgent matter is solving the threat from the devil. As for reassigning territories, we can discuss that later. First of all, we must let everyone on the Norland Continent let their guard down and really work together.”


  “To the Roth Empire, the urgent thing now is the reassignment of territories.” Andre looked at Louis. He smiled sarcastically. “To you, a giant dragon, a century is but a blink of an eye. You were the one who signed the treaty, and now you are still the ones sitting here. You can wait. I can’t. In another century, no one would know if the Roth Empire would still be around. I am not signing this treaty.”


  Andre’s imposing and reasonable request made the hall silent.

  ?Mag looked at Andre intently.

  Louis was stumped by Andre’s words. Suddenly, he had no idea what to say in reply.

  He was present at the peace treaty a century ago, and he was also one of those who drafted the treaty conditions. Today, among the various representatives present, there were also many familiar faces, for example, the dwarven king, the goblin chief, Helena…


  If Bruno had not been killed by Alex yesterday, he should also have been sitting here right now. He was the one who had represented the forest trolls in signing the treaty back then.

  The human lifespan was too short. Decades would swing by to a giant dragon, but to a human, it would be his entire life.

  The king of the Roth Empire who represented humans in signing the treaty was Andre’s grandfather. Andre might pass away in another 50 years, much less a century.

  It seemed very reasonable for Andre to refuse to sign.

  None of the representatives were eager to voice their opinion for fear that Andre and the Roth Empire would eye their lands.

  “Therefore, do you intend to restart the racial war?” Mag did not remain silent.

  “No. This is not my choice.” Andre looked at Mag. “All I want is for my citizens to have land to reproduce and live. Right now, there are many such lands on the Norland Continent that are being left untouched. What the Roth Empire wants is not a lot and not too much.”


  “You know very well that none of the races would give their land to you. Saying that is just to snatch the lands from the other races,” Douglas said coldly.

  “I am not ambitious. I don’t want the other races’ land too. I only want half of the untouched land under the giant dragons,” Andre said peacefully while looking at Douglas.

  “I think you just want to eat some sh*t. How dare you eye our land!” Tyranno Dragon Isaiah howled angrily as he glared at Andre.

  “The land below Dragon Island is untouched. Back then, the giant dragons occupied Dragon Island and also the most fertile piece of land on the Norland Continent. If the giant dragons really have the intention to join hands with the Roth Empire to fight the devil, why aren’t you willing to give up a piece of land that is totally useless to you?” Andre asked with a laugh.

  “What if we aren’t willing?!” Louis said solemnly.

  “In that case, I am forced to expand outwards so that my people can live. Whether I choose west, east, or south, I can’t say for sure, and I would not be able to make any guarantees,” Andre said, still with a smile.

  The orc representatives’ expressions changed, and Helena’s brow was tightly knit, for the orcs’ land was west of the Roth Empire, while the Wind Forest was east of the Roth Empire.

  The three giant dragon leaders also frowned.

  Andre’s threat was very obvious. The Roth Empire would never attack Dragon Island, and therefore he had clearly named his targets.

  You, giant dragons, can say whatever you want. I will just attack the adjacent races.

  It was a barbaric yet effective method.

  “I suppose you should know that yesterday, the giant dragons, goblins, dwarves, 108 orc tribes, Chaos City, and Night Elves have already formed the Peace Alliance. Once you attack an ally of the Peace Alliance, the Roth Empire will be up against the Peace Alliance, not just your neighboring country,” Michael said seriously.

  “That would not affect any of my decisions,” Andre replied calmly.

  “Andre, do you really want to stand against the world? Has the Roth Empire become so strong it can go against the entire world? Arrogant!” Louis shouted.

  “Judging from how you formed the Peace Alliance so urgently, it seems that right now, the Roth Empire has what it takes.” Andre nodded. He looked at the various representatives mockingly. “Therefore, what makes you think that the Roth Empire, which requires all of you to gang up against, should still be cowering in the Norland Continent’s most barren piece of land and allow you to benefit from that? Who’s the arrogant one?”


  Even Mag could not help but applaud Andre’s speech…… His logic was flawless, and that was a perfect comeback.
