Supremacy Games

Emperor Lokhil felt the same, knowing that as a pure utilitarian race, they would end up emerging from this war with the most fatalities compared to the dragons, space worms, heavenly turtles, and such.

So, it was in his biggest interest to make this deal happen at all costs.

'As much as I hate to admit it, I have to say that this enemy really makes all of our defensive measures obsolete.' Queen Alfreda sighed, 'I am not too scared of them since we live on mother's tree body, and she can easily kill anyone she desired if they threatened her body. But, we can't afford to put our witches, dwarves, sages, and other utility races in such a grave danger.'

'The entire economic system of the alliance would collapse and everything else would fall after it shortly, making us get hit with the worst recession period in history.'

'That's true.'

Those three races might not be able to fight, but they were the backbone of the alliance's economy. After all, potions, artifacts, and even scrolls were being utilized on daily basis by almost everyone.

Since each field touches upon hundreds of other areas, if it fell it would bring with it everything like a domino effect.

For example: without potion making, beast hunters occupation and its market would take a massive hit as well as the cultivation plants for common and rare materials...Even explorers seeking those materials in the wilderness would be reduced immensely since the demand for them would hit rock bottom.

'Let's ask her first if they are genuinely interested in joining the alliance.' King Arthur said, still taking the lead of the conversation to always keep it in the Void Nation's favor.

"You want us to stay outside this war, but you have to give us more than just a threat." Queen Alfreda said with a solemn tone, "What will guarantee us that you won't target other members when you deal with your current targets?"

"Fair point." Candace smiled, "What do you suggest then?"

Queen Alfreda looked at the others before proposing, "We want your nation to join the alliance and be operated at the same rules as all of us."
