Signs of Instability (1)

█████████████

The news about the Southeast spread far and wide.

With battles ongoing every day, people became anxious. They did not know when it would end or when their dominance would be taken over and disappear. But in the end, it ended with the humans’ victory.

[ After a series of fierce battles, the Mobile Field Army gained victory… ]

With this brief headline, the news about the Southeast was spread all throughout the Empire. However, the Empire did not have any time to care about it at all.

The alliance of birdmen in the West.

The sudden explosion of the ruins of Atlantis in the East.

The fluctuation in the great forest in the South.

The changes in the continent began to appear as if it was waiting for the conclusion of the events in the Southeast.

However, the biggest problem was in the North. The place, where they thought was the safest, suddenly began to move strangely. The region was still relatively much closed off, but thanks to the Northeast being mostly open to the public, they were still able to receive the latest news. And the worst news that the Empire could receive came from that very same Northeast.

[ Frost Giant Corps? Are they awakening? ]

[ The worst crisis. How will the Northeast overcome this crisis? ]

In the end, the truth that they had hidden had been revealed. And the Northeast, which was hailed as a safe zone, had become a dangerous area in a blink of an eye.

In a situation where the entire Northern region was in danger, the people’s attention was suddenly focused on the Center. This was because the areas in the vicinity of the capital had become a relatively safe area after the dangers erupted from all over the Empire.

Because of this, the collapsed Central Government began to recover their power, albeit only slightly. However, contrary to what they showed to the public, the Imperial Family, especially the Crown Prince and the nobles who supported him, all had solemn expressions on their faces that grew deeper by the day.

“…When do you think it will break?”

The ministers standing behind the Crown Prince all remained silent at his question.

This was a fact that only a select few people knew. However, they all knew that this was something that they would eventually let the public know.

The white crystal, which was currently believed to be the core that held the boundary protecting this continent, was on the verge of breaking.

The Imperial Family had suffered and endured all sorts of degradation and humiliation just to protect this item. They eventually succeeded in protecting this and the Empire despite the fall of the capital and the Imperial Family’s power.

But even after they tried everything that they could, the crack was still growing by the day. Perhaps it was because it had already reached the point where it couldn’t be reversed anymore or the speed of breaking had become uncontrollable that it accelerated after receiving that huge crack. However, that did not matter anymore. What mattered was that there was a big crack on this crystal right at this very moment. And with the dangerous situation in the continent, it would not be strange at all if it suddenly broke completely.
