My diet had become more diverse.

Previously, with every meal, the dessert had been fruit, but now there was also cake.

Ah, it’s wonderful to be alive. I had decided to make Sunday and other public holidays special because I had grown tired of eating too much everyday.

It was a satisfying life. When I had just reincarnated into a Slime, I had never thought about leading such a luxurious lifestyle.

If there are no problems with the East Empire, I could immerse myself in my hobby but...........

Thinking about it recently, Veldora, some sympathizers, and I had all thought something like, “Should we attack at the same time as the declaration of war?”

Although there some who didn’t agree with the wait and see approach, if you think about it, it’s easier to attack than it is to defend.

The spread out defensive forces might not have enough soldiers to protect along the planned invasion route. On the other hand, only deploying the reconnaissance unit to decide the route had a large risk of turning into an attack.

It’s expected that they would not invade from the Dwargon Kingdom territory.

The neutral country, the Arms Nation Dwargon, possessed a standing army equipped with highly technological armaments.

The country’s entry and exit points were also more suitable for defense, and not for an attempt to seize the city with a large army. Therefore, it could be said that the country itself was a natural fortress.

The sea route was also not an option. The number of the ships might not suffice, and there were also large demonic sea monsters infesting the high seas.

It was difficult to meet the requirements and gain a foothold for sea combat, so the risk would be too high and the route would not be chosen. More simply, it was unknown whether the ship could sail the sea safely or not.

Similarly, the mountain range inhabited by the dragons was also not an option.

In the end, the only option left was the route that passed through the Great Jura Forest.

When it came to this, the possible routes that could be selected for military mobilization were three.

But, one of those routes was an area adjacent to the Dwarf Kingdom. I think it wouldn’t be used for an unauthorized invasion, due to the fear of a pincer attack from Tempest and Dwargon.

In the end, the other two routes are the most probable for invasion. The army, in theory would be divided in two to handle the two routes.

However, was it really going to be that simple?

I couldn’t help but to think about it. If the empire really mobilized as expected, was the empire underestimating Tempest? Or it was because they possessed a large army? Which one was true?

Anyway, those were my thoughts as a person that wasn’t an expert in military affairs, but I would choose the invasion route between the two routes.

A military expert would not choose easily predicted the route simply because there was no other route.

No, on contrary if there’s no other route, I would not move until I gathered enough forces tooverwhelm the defenders, so I thought.

If it becamea battle against that large army, then splitting the war potentials was a bad plan.

It was no good.
