Galactic Empire in New World

Part 8 Chapter 36 Making Decision

Before the story, I want to make an announcement. I have put the final draft of the next chapters (Up to part 9 Chapter 2) on another site, namely at:

https://karyakarsa.com/robotechmania/series

I have put it in two languages, Indonesian and English. Sorry, I charge a small fee to read it, it is around 30 cent US$. I will try to provide at least 10 chapters in advance to be read there.

Please support my writing, I'm getting desperate because only very few of the reader go thare and buy the upcoming chapter. If there is a problem to pay in that site. Please tell me in the conversation.

Thank you very much.

Gra Valkas, Ragna
Palace bunker, Emperor Gralux's study
The next morning,

Emperor Gralux, who was currently working on his study, looked even more disheveled. The reddened eyes and dark circles indicated a lack of sleep due to the nightmares that continued to haunt him every time he slept. Likewise, his body was getting thinner due to a loss of appetite.

Nevertheless, he tried to stay strong as he remembered the increasingly difficult fate of Gra Valkas. Currently Emperor Gralux was studying all the remaining Gra Valkas' military power distribution. He felt happier after seeing the report that more than 70% of the military equipment, especially for the army, was still in place, while the other military branches also still had more than 60% of their strength. The main problem was in human resources, where less than 50% remained, and it would take time to conduct training just to be able to use the existing military equipment.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door of his office.

"Enter!" ordered Emperor Gralux.

Gesta, the deputy director of Gra Valkas's foreign ministry, entered from the door. Gesta immediately saluted Emperor Gralux.

"What is it again, Gesta? Is the enemy preparing another attack?" asked Emperor Gralux matter-of-factly.

Gesta noticed Emperor Gralux's detoriating mental state.

"No sire. We received information that the Annonrial Empire attacked a Revernal Beacon research facility in Palpadia Empire. Myto Empire thwarted them, leading to the declaration of war by Myto Empire, Mu Empire, and HME against the Annonrial Empire," Gesta said.

"They are at war with the Annonrial Empire? Well, that's really good news. They will start to reduce the pressure on us, we can at least rebuild our strength again." Emperor Gralux said this.

"That's right, Your Highness. We also received news that the Palpadia Empire, which lost so many soldiers, will hold a ceremony to honor the fallen soldiers. It is planned that representatives of HME, Mu Empire, and Myto Empire will attend," said Gesta.

"Oh, then what does that have to do with us?" asked Emperor Gralux.

"According to the news obtained, from the Myto Empire will be present its highest leader, Moff Trevat." said Gesta.

"Oh, there's a chance of cutting off the dragon's head, so at least the Myto Empire will be difficult to react to for some time." Emperor Gralux said this.

"Thats right, your highness. But there's also a chance that they'll be very angry and will attack us." said Gesta.

"True, but they won't dare attack us if they attack the Annonrial Empire. Confirm whether they have mobilized their forces to attack the Annonrial Empire. If that is true, then there is a great chance for us to attack the event." Emperor Gralux exclaimed excitedly.
