Philippine President And Her Country Got Isekai'd!?

49 - Unexpected Crisis Beyond II [FINAL]

"Silence everyone..." President Luna's deep voice resounded through the hall as she leaned forward and sent a sharp gaze towards the agents left and right. "I want to hear all your views..."

"In the esteemed presence of this assembly," Former Top Head Honduras Regalado, a venerable septuagenarian, stepped forward with unwavering conviction, addressing the gathering in a tone of righteous determination. "Based on the comprehensive reports available to us, it is evident that the continent of Austrona has long been plagued by the insidious presence of demons, an affliction that has now escalated to the point where it has led to the complete destruction of the Britannica Empire. At present, only the empire nation of Elhias stands resilient against this malevolent onslaught. Regrettably, millions of innocent lives have been ruthlessly claimed in short amount of time, and the forces of demons have audaciously encroached upon the territories of the Saint Elhias Empire, the nation known for their erected barriers."

Regalado's voice resonated with gravitas as he continued, "In light of these dire circumstances, it is imperative for us to recognize the urgent need for action. The million loss of life cannot be tolerated any longer. We, as a nation, possess the strength and capability to intervene decisively. I firmly propose that we mobilize our forces immediately to confront these abominations and restore peace to the beleaguered lands of Austrona. Let our unified resolve be the beacon that guides us in this noble endeavor to vanquish the forces of darkness and protect the innocent! Time will come when those demons lay their hands on our beloved homeland!"

The President and her three Legion members don't react at all. Luna spoke disregarding the former Top Head, "Set aside demons, what does everyone feel about subjugating a demon king? I must remind you all we couldn't defeat Barbados without an Orbital attack, he is a captain of demon army, not a demon king"

Everybody was stunned upon hearing those two words, even Xylma who was now trembling and also shocked.

Minutes have passed without anyone raising their hands.

"In the esteemed presence of our nation's leadership," Lily Sagrada, the Secretary of the Department of Defense, stepped forward with a measured tone, her words laden with caution and strategic foresight evident in her crimson eyes. "I respectfully express my dissent, Miss President. The situation on the Austrona continent is undeniably dire. It has descended into chaos, rendering its nations vulnerable and unable to fend off the encroaching darkness. However, a hasty and impulsive response might prove catastrophic and may change their target to us. The demons, particularly under the cunning leadership of their king and the expertise of their army captains, have strategically occupied locations that are not only defensible but also exceedingly difficult to assail due to the intricate and rugged terrain."

She continued, her voice unwavering, "Even with the advanced exoskeleton and arms technology at our disposal, launching a full-scale expedition without a meticulous plan would likely result in devastating losses. We risk being outmaneuvered and overwhelmed by the sheer might of the demon forces. It is my earnest belief that we must proceed with prudence, devising a comprehensive strategy that takes into account not only our military strength and logistics but also the intricate topography of the Austrona continent. Not to mention the unknown power of supernatural forces they wield."

Former Top Head Honduras' frustration resonated within the room, but Anna Montes, echoing Sagrada's sentiments, added, "Miss President, the Federal States of the Philippines also face internal threats. The specter of the NPA-ONE terrorists still looms, albeit diminished. Dispatching our forces to a distant land, leaving our some territories vulnerable, might embolden these domestic adversaries. Our villages and cities could be targeted in our absence. We must prioritize addressing these internal challenges to ensure the safety and stability of our territories."
