"This might actually be easier than we thought..."

They were analyzing the aerial images taken of the Kingdom of Altarus. It showed the Parpaldian army within Altarus, a little distance away from the capital Le Brias, laying down a runway for wyvern lords to use and constructing a military base. That was the first point.

The second point was the port in Le Brias, where there were twenty ships-of-the-line anchored there. The third point was 40 km north of the capital, which looked like another military base. Parpaldia's forces in Altarus were concentrated in those three places; luckily enough, there were no other military bases near large population centers.

If The Union targeted these three points with their naval forces and wiped out most of the empire's main forces with supporting fire, couldn't the people of Altarus take back their kingdom with their own hands?

"Hmm, I doubt things will go as smoothly as that."

The preparations for war proceeded at a steady pace.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was vigorously ramping up efforts to expand their diplomatic reach. Even though it had been some months since they had transferred, they had only formed diplomatic ties with a single country that was considered a major power in this world, the Second Civilization's superpower Mu.

The ministry considered two countries of critical importance: the world's strongest country, the Holy Mirishial Empire; and a single-race country that only had a population of one million but still carried the title of "superpower," a nation that was said to be tough to deal with because of their ego, the Eimor Kingdom.

There was also the Gra Valkas Empire, a strong country that declared war on the Second Civilization that the people of this world didn't know much about. Their technology was extremely advanced compared to the standards of this world, so there were some who insisted that it would be beneficial to trade with them, but they were extremely far away from The Motherland so contact was put off for the time being. Based on their recent incursions, the ministry planned to do a thorough investigation before reaching out to them.

With Mu as an intermediary, they expected talks with the Holy Mirishial Empire to go smoothly. However, because the Eimor Kingdom was so prideful, their intelligence indicated that negotiations would probably be rough. Furthermore, they were located rather far inside the First Civilization, the Central World, so just getting to them could be somewhat difficult. The word "prideful" brought to mind the Parpaldia Empire, so the ministry's executives foresaw many headaches. They considered trying to go through Mu, but Eimor didn't believe in using intermediaries, they held the belief that "if you need something, come ask for it with your own two feet," an attitude that was quite alien coming from Earth, so they abandoned the idea.

The Vespechann Ministry of Foreign Affairs had recently made progress in their negotiations with the Kingdom of Meerkie, a country that neighbored Eimor, so they decided to try dispatching a small delegation from Meerkie to establish first contact.
