Chapter 92 Crisis and Opportunity

Lorena and Augis were not slow, but after a few days, they had already returned to Duanmu Huai's side again, but this time, Lorena's expression seemed a little nervous.

"war?"

"Yes………"

Lorena nodded.

"Now on this continent, the war between humans and dragons is going on. According to the information we inquired, there is an evil dragon named Fafna leading the dragon clan, burning, killing and looting everywhere on this continent. They think that the dragon clan is He is the highest ruler in this world, and all other beings must submit to the Dragon Clan."

"So that's the case...then no one is going to destroy it?"

"It is said that a knight named Siegfried went to slay the dragon, but there was no news... It must have failed."

"And what about Regnes and Manalia? Nothing happened?"

"The situation of Regnes is not very clear, but Manalia seems to be planning to focus on defense..."

"What a stupid decision."

Duanmu Huai frowned. After listening to Lorena's report, he almost understood what happened to this world fragment. Obviously, Manalia chose to sit on the sidelines, and Regnes eventually became the subordinate of the evil dragon, which completely set off a war between dragons and humans. Although I don't know what happened in the end, it is conceivable that it is definitely not good result.

This ending must be changed as soon as possible...

"Is it difficult, Lord Knight?"

Seeing Duanmuhuai's solemn expression, Lorena asked, and Duanmuhuai nodded.

"That's right, I can almost guess what the evil dragon wants to do. It wants to use this method to provoke the confrontation between humans and dragons, and then fan the flames and start a war between the two sides."

"But master..."

Hearing this, Augis asked curiously.

"It's just some dragons that attack humans, right?"

"Although this is the case, specifically, the impressions between each race are accumulated through contact with individuals. People only saw the dragons killing humans, but they didn't see the dragons coming out to stop all this, so they naturally Think all dragons are equally cruel. Dragons see humans the same way, maybe they see weak and incompetent humans, and think all humans are like this..."

Having said this, Duanmuhuai spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders.

"Specifically, within human beings, every organization, every race, and every country also forms their initial impressions of each other through such perceptions. For example, Lorena, everyone will use her to form an impression of the Holy City. There is also the impression of the church, so she represents the image of the holy city outside. At least through Lorena, everyone will know that the priests of the holy city are a very friendly group of people, which will be beneficial to the future exchanges between the two parties of."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Lorena lowered her head embarrassedly and smiled, while tidying her robe. And Duanmuhuai also chuckled and pointed to himself.

"Like me, if you act heinously in front of the dragon clan, I'm afraid the dragon clan will also think that human beings are vicious villains."

"I understand, but master......"

Augis blinked curiously, and looked at Duanmu Huai.

"Will the Dragons think you are human?"

“……………………”

Duanmu Huai's face turned pale when he heard Augis' question, and he stared at Augis, speechless for a moment.

Backstab teammates, or crit, you really can.

"In short... this problem needs to be resolved as soon as possible."

Duanmuhuai decisively changed the subject, and he felt that his HP was about to go to zero.

"But...how to do it?"

"I'll talk to Ann and Guleya first."

Although logically speaking, Duanmuhuai, as an outsider, is not suitable for meddling in the internal affairs of other countries. But the most important thing right now is to save the world, so as to avoid the worst from happening, Duanmuhuai also had to change his mind.

At noon the next day, the three of them got together again in the atrium.

"Mr. Knight, what story do you want to tell today?"

"I won't tell a story today. I have something very important to tell you two."

Duanmuhuai shook his head, then looked at An and Guleya, noticing his serious expression, both girls were taken aback.

"Hey? Mr. Knight has something important to tell us? Could it be that he intends to confess?"

"What are you talking about, can you put something else in your head besides these?"

Facing An's words, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes.

"Seriously, I want to discuss something about the evil dragon Fafna."

"........."

Hearing this, An and Guleya were slightly taken aback, and then their expressions became serious. But Duanmuhuai was also staring at them now, and said.

"Lorena and Augis have conducted some investigations during this period. We heard that the evil dragon Fafna is currently wreaking havoc on this continent. Is it true?"

"this……………"

An and Guleya looked at each other and nodded helplessly.

"That's right."

"And, if our investigation is correct, neither Manalia nor Regnes took action? Why?"

"I don't know what my father is thinking."

An sighed helplessly, and Guleya also lowered her head.

"Me too... I believe my father doesn't want to see the situation in front of me, but the domestic dragon situation is really difficult to coordinate..."

"That is to say, there are many dragons in Regnes who agree with Fafnir's point of view. They think that the dragons rule other races because they are at the top of all creatures. Is that true?"

Duanmu Huai stared at Gu Leya, and asked questions, but Gu Leya shrank her body into a ball at the moment, and nodded uneasily.

"Really, Mister Knight!"

Seeing this, An couldn't help reaching out and hugging Guleya.

"It's not Guleya's fault, don't kill her!"

"Sorry, I'm used to it."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand. As soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately entered the role of judge, and his tone would inevitably become tougher.

"But do you know the consequences of continuing like this? If one is not good, the dragons will start a full-scale conflict and war with humans. Is it okay?"

"Why?!"

Hearing this, An's complexion changed drastically, and even Gu Leya raised her head in surprise, looking at Duanmuhuai.

"Ahahaha...Mr. Knight, if you say this...would it be a bit alarmist? After all, it's just an evil dragon...that..."

"However, the Dragon Clan didn't stop it."

Duanmuhuai interrupted Ann's defense.

"The dragons didn't stop it. From the perspective of human beings, they support it. This also means that Fafna's statement is recognized by the dragons. Therefore, in the eyes of humans, all dragons are like Fafna, trying to destroy and dominate human beings. their enemies."

"Yes, that's not the case!"

An hurriedly stood up and refuted loudly.

"Gureya is not such a person. I know that Gureya is a very gentle and kind child! She is not the evil dragon like Fife!"

"install……………"

Hearing An's words, Guleya looked at her with a happy expression, while Duanmuhuai directly poured cold water on the warm atmosphere.

"Even so, how do you convince other people to believe this? Not to mention anything else, not all students in the academy are willing to associate with Guleya."

"this……………"

Facing Duanmuhuai's words, the two girls were speechless for a while. Indeed, like Duanmuhuai, Guleiya was also neglected by the students in Manalia, but her problem mainly lay in her identity as a dragon. Although Guleiya is not completely without friends in Manalia, but for many students, she will still be kept at a respectful distance.

"Yeah, but... what do you think we should do?!"

An couldn't think of a way, so she lost her temper on Duanmu Huai.

"This is not a problem we can solve!"

"of course not."

Duanmuhuai shook his head.

"If you are just ordinary students, then there is no problem, but you two are Her Royal Highness, you represent not only yourself, but also your own country. Whether it is Ann or Guleiya, the citizens will watch Your every move. Now that the evil dragon is raging, your actions represent the position of your country. Moreover, I am not unable to solve this problem. In fact, although the evil dragon invasion is a disaster, but... There is also opportunity in it.”

"Why?"

Hearing this, the girls were all taken aback.

"opportunity?"

"That's right, if the dragon clan wants to have a good relationship with humans, then they can just take this opportunity to fight with humans and fight against the evil dragon army. In this way, the dragon clan can at least show humans that even the dragon clan Not all dragons think the same way as Fafnir, they also have different ideas and positions just like humans."

Having said this, Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"So, my idea is that Manaria and Regnese will jointly form a crusade team to crusade against the evil dragon, and as long as the evil dragon can be successfully eliminated, then all problems can be solved. The evil dragon is eliminated, and humans and The relationship between the Dragon Clan will also improve, and the matter will be resolved."

At any time, the best way to resolve internal conflicts is to find an external enemy, just like the Empire did during the War of the Three Emperors. If it weren't for a certain vampire who ran all the way to Altdorf to die in the spirit of fearless internationalism, maybe The civil strife in the empire has not subsided so quickly.

"this…………………"

It has to be said that when An and Guleya heard about Duanmuhuai's plan, they were both stunned.

"Could it be that simple?"

"If everything goes well, it's that simple. Otherwise, don't you want to wait until the evil dragon hits Manalia before thinking about this issue?"

"Huh? Will Fafna attack Manalia?"

Hearing this, An was taken aback, but Duanmuhuai seemed very calm.

"Of course, Manalia is the country with the most powerful magic on this continent."

"Yes."

Ann nodded.

"Sir Seraph Manaria bestowed magic on us, so our Kingdom of Manaria will prosper under the power of magic."

"So, if I were Fafna, I would definitely attack Manaria. From the standpoint of the Dragon Clan, as long as Manaria, the strongest human country, is eliminated, humans will have no choice but to capture it without a fight."

Faced with Duanmuhuai's words, An and Guleya's expressions became more and more serious. Although they looked like girls of sixteen or seventeen, they were still Her Royal Highness in the final analysis. Anyone who is not a vase bag for marriage should understand How serious is the situation right now.

"I see."

Ann also stood up now.

"I will immediately write to my father and clarify the situation."

"Me too."

Guleiya also nodded vigorously.

"I will also contact my father to discuss countermeasures."

"Then I'll leave it to you. Although the holy city cannot participate in the battle against the evil dragon, we will represent the holy city and join us in the crusade against the evil dragon."

Hearing the reply from the two princesses, Duanmuhuai also heaved a sigh of relief.

With my own warning, at least... the situation should not get worse.
