As soon as both the Oracle Alliance and the Istarin Empire declared War on each other, it sent shockwaves throughout the 6 continents. Even some people who lived on the Main continent heard of the news and were surprised.

This War between the Oracle Alliance and the Istarin Empire would be the largest and fiercest War fought in the last 500 years history of the Dying Isle continent. The news itself had bought unrest among the common and peasant class people. As these two classes, people suffer the most during times of war.

Fortunately, the citizens of the Istarin Empire were not that worried. This wasn't the first time their Emperor has gone to War with another big Empire. In fact, the Istarin Empire fought wars in a way that the common and peasant class people couldn't even feel the ripple effect of the war.

Commonly when a War takes place, the prices of commodities spike. Which severely affects the common and peasant class population within the Empire. At the same time, an Empire wouldn't hesitate to increase the tax to raise enough funds to continue the war.

The economy of an Empire may suffer devastating impacts during and after a time of war. Everyday activities of a community or Empire are disrupted and properties may be damaged. When people become misplaced, they cannot continue to work or keep their businesses open, causing damage to the economy of the Empires involved. The Empire decides to direct money to fund war efforts, leaving other institutions with little or no available budget.

But in the Istarin Empire, the prices of commodities never increased. It always remained the same. The tax wasn't increased. No property was ever damaged. The people weren't forced to move from one city to another. And even if a situation like that did occur, the Empire would send relief funds.

Every Empire and Kingdom in the Dying Isle continent had to take a stance. Everyone had to pick one side. It's a completely different matter whether they joined the war. As the winner of this war would decide the new Superpower of the Dying Isle continent.

Most Kingdoms were fed up with the Echo Nexus Empire for years. They wanted to see the Echo Nexus Empire fall. Some wanted the Istarin Empire to become the new Superpower of the continent. While some Kingdoms that had received help from the Echo Nexus Empire chose to support Lucca and the Oracle Alliance. And a few Kingdoms and dynasties remained neutral in this matter.

But it was clear that the entire Dying Isle continent currently was divided in two. One side wanted to see change and wanted a new power to rise. While the other side wanted the current order to remain and didn't want a new Superpower to emerge. As they feared that the change in Superpower would affect them and their interest.

In all of this, the Hephaestus Kingdom which previously used to be an Empire but was destroyed by the Echo Nexus Empire, and the Oracle Alliance openly supported the Istarin Empire.

The Hephaestus Empire was a victim of the Oracle Alliance's bullying. Lucca did not like the Hephaestus Emperor who went against his interest. So Lucca decided to kill the Hephaestus Emperor and place a puppet that would listen to Lucca. At the same time, it was because of the actions of the Oracle Alliance, that the peaceful Hephaestus Kingdom had now turned into a criminal hub. It had become a place where publicly killing people had become very normal. Where publicly doing crime is very normal. Where soldiers and the nobles are not respected.

However, the puppet that Lucca placed didn't want to be under Lucca's control. He wanted his Kingdom to be free from the Oracle Alliance and its big influence. Also, he wanted to get revenge for the death of his uncle who was the previous Emperor. The current situation was in favor of the Hephaestus Kingdom.

In the Western Empire,

Around a month and a half ago, The princess of the Mist Ocean Empire was kidnapped by the commander of the Ageless Islands Empire. Learning that his only daughter and family member has been kidnapped by their rival's commander, the Mist Ocean Emperor was furious and demanded his daughter be given back. An hour later, he learned that his daughter had been killed.

The pain of losing his only family member and his only daughter drove the Mist Ocean Emperor to war with the Ageless Islands Empire without caring about the consequences of his actions. He didn't care that his war was going to affect his people. He didn't care that this war would severely affect his Empire's economy. He didn't care that this war might end up crippling his Empire. All he cared was about getting revenge.

Since the War between the Mist Ocean Empire and the Ageless Empire started, two other Empires also jumped in. Those two Empires were the Cloud Earth Empire and the Storm Empire. Both Empires were big rivals of each other for centuries. The Mist Ocean Empire was backed by the Cloud Earth Empire while the Ageless Islands Empire was backed by the Storm Empire.

What they didn't know was that the Istarin Empire was responsible for all of this. Since all seven Western Empires were planning on uniting their military strength to take down the Istarin Empire, Aditya created a big misunderstanding between them and which started a war. And Aditya wasn't guilty about it. He just played the game smartly.

With each passing day, the War became more and more dangerous. More and more people were killed with each passing. The ones that suffered the most in this war were the common class people.

Within the time frame of one and a half months, numerous battles were fought. All four Empires lost lots of troops and resources in that period.

But today, on the 47th day of the war, the four western Emperors learned very shocking news. It was news that shocked them to their very core. Just the news, none of the Emperors were able to believe it till they saw it with their own eyes.

The news was so shocking and terrifying that the four Empires who had been fighting each other had to put a temporary stop to the war and come together for a meeting.

The four Great remaining Emperors of the Western region were currently sitting around a big square-shaped table. The meeting was taking place outside the four Empires. It was taking place in a Kingdom that was located at the very center of the Western region. Previously, whenever a meeting was called, all 7 Great emperors would gather. But now their numbers had decreased to 4. This once again made them realize while they were busy fighting each other, their enemy had sneaked in and taken down three Great Emperors.

The Ageless Islands Emperor Larry Franks and the Storm Emperor Uriel Gonzalez were sitting next to each other. Their closeness symbolized the great friendship that these two Emperors had between them.

Sitting opposite them were The Mist Ocean Emperor Joshua Andrews and The Cloud Earth Emperor Apollo Gamble. Both Joshua and Apollo were sitting close to each other and glaring at the other party.

In response, Larry and Uriel also glared back. This continued for a while as a result no words were spoken in the meeting room.

Sigh!

"Let's stop with this." The Cloud Earth Emperor Apollo Gamble broke the silence within the meeting room. Causing the other three to look at him.

"The current situation is more dangerous than we think. Within a single night, the Western Empires were conquered by the Istarin Emperor. I suspect Aditya has been planning this since the very day when the war started. Last month Aditya wasn't seen anywhere. I think he and his men had secretly infiltrated the three Empires. Yesterday happened to be the night when he and his men finally took action."

The other three Emperors nodded their response. Apollo's words made sense. Aditya had disappeared for over a month. When he finally appeared, he took down the three great Emperors. They also felt that Aditya was secretly preparing for this in the last month.

Even if Larry and Uriel did not like Apollo, they had to agree with Apollo's words.

"Normally, this entire situation would have been very bad news for us. But by luck, we also have good news that will help us immensely."

"You Mean the Oracle Alliance and the Echo Nexus Empire?" Asked Larry.

The four Emperors knew what Aditya did to the Dragon Slayer guild and to the Crown Prince. "Yes." The four Emperors grinned knowing what they needed to do now.

"Let's put a temporary stop to this war between us. For now, let's join our military on taking down the Istarin Empire with the Echo Nexus Empire and the Oracle Alliance's help. Then we can settle our own matters." The other three Emperors nodded in heads in agreement. Thus, an agreement between the four Emperors was made.
