The Regressed Mercenary's Machinations

Chapter 603



Chapter 603

Nobles generally avoided antagonizing mages. Despite their selfish and individualistic tendencies, mages were quick to unite when their rights were threatened.

This unity was a defense mechanism to protect their privileges, which had effectively safeguarded their status for years. The most kingdoms could do was prevent mage towers from meddling in political conflicts or colluding with lords.

But this situation was different. If a dragon truly appeared, countless lives would be lost. Customs and traditions were irrelevant when the stakes demanded forcibly subjugating the mage towers, even through bloodshed.

The nobles, adept at political maneuvering, quickly saw an opportunity. If nothing else, their political skills far outmatched those of the mages.

“Hmm, we have the moral high ground here...”

“With Duke Fenris taking the lead, who’s going to oppose us?”

“This is the perfect chance to put the mage towers in their place for good.”

Though mages were powerful, their overconfidence stemmed from their ability to relocate to any kingdom at will. But if every kingdom united against them, they’d have nowhere to run.

“They’ve grown too accustomed to exploiting others' sacrifices for their gain!”

“This is the perfect opportunity to correct their twisted sense of entitlement.”

Watching the nobles eagerly voice their support, Ghislain clicked his tongue. Their true intentions were as transparent as glass, but for now, this was the kind of fervor he needed.

“Begin preparations immediately. Time is running short.”

According to Ereneth, there was still some time before Arterion’s full power would be restored.

However, complacency was not an option. They also had to prepare for the impending monster wave.
