Reincarnation Monarch
Episode 357: Shadow of War
One.
"... Do you still agree with Mr. Ayle?
Gaius asked quietly looking closely into Ayle's eyes.
Then Ayle closed her eyelids slowly, meditating often and silently.
And after a while, Ayle opened his eyes again, saying in a clear tone as he took Gaius' gaze firmly with a harsh eye.
"... yeah. Definitely think the Kingdom of Dallas is in decline. And I wonder if it will collapse in the not-too-distant future..."
Gaius was not least surprised by the words of this Ayle.
Indeed, the decline of Dallas was also evident in Gaius's eyes.
But that's why I didn't even think it was enough to collapse in the near future.
"... not calm with collapse... is it?
"Yeah...... right. But I'm afraid that maybe something close to it will come soon."
"... was there anything to anticipate the collapse of Dallas?
"... no, I don't know for sure. But in everyone's eyes, the decline of Dallas is obvious, and if it does, it will be a celebration for my Lowenglin... and I'm sure that will be the case."
"I mean, there's a move within Lowenglin to fuel the collapse of Dallas...... so?
"Yeah. If you put it bluntly, yeah."
"And anticipating the time when the collapse of Dallas appeared and seemed real..."
Gaius inhaled one big breath there.
And quietly and slowly exhaling, he said something decisive in the future of Dallas.
"The Pope Lowenglin will attack the Kingdom of Dallas!... So?
Gaius said so and looked closely into Ayle's eyes.
Then Ayle nodded quietly and small as he took Gaius' gaze straight.
Two.
"Well, go ahead and be well."
Gaius greeted him so with a pleasant smile.
Then the opposing Ayle also replied to Gaius with a flamboyant smile.
"You're the one who's fine. I'll write to you when I get back to Manaham."
"Yes, I'll write to you when I get back to Elmour, too."
"Yeah. I'm looking forward to it. Bye!"
When Ayle greeted him with his right hand up in momentum, he began walking wide down the boulevard just below the Tower of Things.
The foothold was light, lightly scratching a small crowd and quickly reaching the other side.
Gaius just kept staring until he couldn't see its back.
And when he made sure Ayle's back was completely lost sight of the crowd, he slowly raised his face and looked up at the high, blue sky.
"... the war between the two powers... when the hell will that be... and how will the other power, the United Kingdom of Raidham, work then... but before that, I have to clean up something..."
When Gaius muttered to himself, he began to walk in the opposite direction to Ayle in a powerful foothold.
