Chapter 516: A Battle Conference
“Have you heard? The elves have occupied the southern fortress city.”

In a tavern in the royal city, the atmosphere was not as lively as it used to be. Instead, it was rather depressing. A few well-dressed noblemen were sharing a bottle of angel wine as they discussed the news regarding the southern fortress city.

The southern part of the Holy Dragon Kingdom had an endless primeval forest. That forest bordered the Forest of Eternity, where the Elven kingdom was located. There were countless magical beasts there, and amongst them were magical beasts that were as powerful as platinum-tier elites. It was not an easy task to cross the Forest of Eternity, let alone to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom after crossing the forest.

In the past, the Holy Dragon Kingdom was surrounded by four different kingdoms and occupied the most fertile land in the world. However, it was still standing. That had something to do with the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s terrain—it had natural moats in all directions. The neighboring kingdoms’ armies could not easily enter it then. When that had been broken, the people had started to get nervous.

There was another thing that made them even more nervous.

“It’s fine if they had breached the southern fortress city. After all, the fortress city is far from the royal city, and there are many cities between them. His Majesty has already sent troops to stop them! I’m worried about another thing. I heard that not long ago, the Dragonspine Snow Mountain had collapsed. It used to border our kingdom and the Winter Nation in the north. If the Elven kingdom can attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom, then what about the Winter Nation?”

A nobleman at the wine table poured himself a glass of wine and drank it before sighing.

The people in the royal city were not worried about the Elven kingdom. However, they were worried the Elven kingdom and the Winter Nation would join forces to attack them. The Holy Dragon Kingdom was very powerful, and with Watson’s help, it had become even more powerful. However, that change seemed too small in front of the combined power of the two kingdoms.

“It seems like everyone in the kingdom has the same worries. Perhaps war would start soon. What should we do?”

Two young men and a woman were sitting at another table not far from them. A pillow-shaped dragon was resting on the shoulder of the young man, who was dozing off.

“What do you mean?” the young woman asked.

The young man looked worried. He immediately said, “I am a Dragon Knight. If there is a war, won’t I be sent to the battlefield? I became a Dragon Knight just to be in the limelight. I don’t want to fight with the Elven Kingdom or the Winter Nation. I heard that the Elven Kingdom soldiers had drunk from the Spring of Life. They are all now immortals. That’s why they took over the southern fortress city so quickly.

“Brother, you worry too much. The Holy Dragon Kingdom has a large number of troops. Even if the battle starts, they will dispatch troops first. They won’t send a newcomer like you to the battlefield.”

“That might not be the case. After learning that the Elves have occupied the southern fortress city, our training has increased significantly in the past two days.

The young man and lady were Casey and Lana. During the two days following the conquest of the southern fortress city, the Elven Kingdom did nothing but stockpile supplies in the fortress city. It seemed like they were waiting for something.

Even Casey could sense how bad the situation was. He had just finished his Dragon Knight training that day and was very tired. Therefore, he asked his sister to have some food and a good rest.
