Supremacy Games

When Zosia returned to the office, the first thing she did was inform all the leaders that she met the emperor.

Then, she told them about the method used to infiltrate their regions and that she confronted him on it without any success.

As expected, no one took the news calmly. In their minds, the fate of the empire was on stake here.

Zosia shared the news for a simple reason.

To switch their hatred and frustration from her back to emperor Rawal. It was a smart move since no one cursed her or berated her anymore after this screw up.

They all knew that no one would have done better than her under this sudden invasion.

Now that the leaders were allied again on a common enemy, Zosia was able to pass her orders more smoothly.

Her first order was to rescue the ten regions from the invasion, so they could capture some high ranked soldiers and obtain some evidence.

Since the leaders were back on her side, no one denied her orders of mobilizing their troops to those ten regions.

The only issue with this was the time it would take for those troops to reach them.

Since they wouldn't be using wormholes, it would take them a few months at least to enter those regions.

It was doubtful that they would make it on time before the capital planets fall one by one.

Still, they needed to attempt to save them. It wouldn't look pretty to the alliance or the public if Zosia just gave up on them.

Speaking about the public, the reaction to the full-scale invasion was received in the best light from everyone.

Many sharp viewers realized that enslaving a space worm elder was the only logical method to explain this invasion.

It didn't take long before the news went viral and everyone went with the flow and believed it without a shred of evidence.

"This can't be real. Emperor Rawal might be greedy, but he is not dumb enough to take such a massive risk just to infiltrate ten regions." The Fang scowled as he read the news while watching the live stream with the other three guild leaders.

"Who knows? Maybe he already went mad?" Winfried shrugged his shoulders, "He only thinks of restoring all of his territories at all cost lately."

"Still, choosing this option is far too dumb." Hamaru shook her head.

"We will find out soon enough." Tobias mentioned, "Zosia isn't an easy foe. She is probably trying her best to find evidence that can convict him."

"I really hope no one does." The Fang sighed, "We can't lose the transportation network between us and the Mariana Empire."

"True, we are already struggling and if we can't receive any more troops or mercenaries from the empire, we are screwed big time." Hamaru said.

"The fact that we are at war between each other even when we have a common enemy is crazy to me." Winfried lamented.
