The Arbiter Republic was actively a.s.sembling their army and also contacting allies at the same time. The Aslan Empire had broken the rules first, and had completely inspired the aggression against the Arbiter Republic. The Arbiter Republic took the initiative to contact the Underworld as well. They didn’t have much combat power, but they were good at destroying things. This was just a question of price.

Arbiter and the Underworld had their own plans for the future. The chaos in this world was very suitable for the people of the Underworld. They had a clearer idea now that the Milky Way Alliance was developing towards the direction of war. The era of the Underworld and pirates was coming.

Aina returned to the capital of Aslan, Monta Ellis. The situation was, frankly, rather embarra.s.sing as they faced the mounting pressure of the Arbiter Republic and the harsh international situation. They had been successful and smooth all these years under Kashawen’s iron fist. They were unsure of how to deal with the situation now that they were the ones being defeated. There was also the a.s.sa.s.sination of Kashawen. It would have been chaos before the war, but it seemed like no one cared now. Arbiter had admitted to the murder directly, but there as no international condemnation. It could be said that there was actually no justice nor evil in this war, only a hegemonic struggle.

Of course, Ryan was still going around, representing the peaceful side, hoping that the Arbiter Republic and the Aslan Empire maintained their cool. They had now paid a heavy price, but there was no need for the war to continue expanding. Anymore and a war would sweep the whole Milky Way, and humanity would go backwards for decades.

Almost all of the royal family and the politicians were in the s.p.a.ceport waiting for Aina’s return. There was also a fierce battle going on between the war and peace factions. Only a handful of people knew Constantine’s plan. More people were definitely against it now that the plan had failed. They felt that it had brought disaster to Aslan. The Aslan people were only human.

They now needed someone to either bear the brunt of the responsibility or to decide. No one was better suited than Aina. They needed Aina to decide to go to war. Similarly, they also needed Aina to bear the responsibility if they were to “surrender”.

That was why they were waiting for her.

The s.p.a.ceport was heavily guarded. The ones to welcome Aina would only be the royal guards. The soldiers didn’t care about this. They were still straight as ramrods.

The s.p.a.ce shuttle arrived, but Aina didn’t appear. Everyone strained their necks and stared at the cabin door. What was happening?

Was there an accident?

They didn’t hear anything of this sort. The trip was a secret and this was a non-war zone. It was impossible to have an accident.

What had happened to Aina? Was she afraid? Or what? Perhaps she didn’t dare to face them?

Thoughts flooded everyone’s minds. They had to consider national interest, but they also had to consider their future. They had to face it no matter what.

Mitch.e.l.l walked out, stood by the side, and gave a bow just as their patience wore thin.

Aina was out.

Aina was in a gorgeous get up with a cold, stern face. She exuded the aura of a G.o.ddess.

Her gaze swept over everyone, and they all bowed their heads as their eyes came into contact with hers. An aura enveloped the entire s.p.a.ceport. This was the majesty and the glory of Aslan.

Aina’s gaze didn’t stop on the politicians. Instead, they were on the Aslan Empire’s guards. She finally showed a small smile. Every one of the warriors felt that small smile. They tucked in their chests and tightened their grip on the guns.

Yes, their Princess was back, their soul was back!

Aina appeared on the largest channel of Aslan two hours after she was back. It was the Aslan Imperial Satellite TV.

The Aslan citizens waited. Their constant questions would finally have an answer.

Constantine was also waiting in s.p.a.ce. He was just one chess piece away. He never thought that his great plan would be crippled by a cripple.

Only he knew what the prophet had predicted. That cripple was one of them. He ignored him even though he was usually superst.i.tious because he was just a nameless cripple. He really didn’t know how such a person could appear in the prophecy. He knew now. It was this cripple who had made him unable to return home, it was also this cripple who had destroyed the centuries of effort of Aslan.

The expression on the face of the prophet while he was dying was still clear in his mind. The names of those five people, the era of human chaos. He didn’t believe it because he felt he had everything under control. He was the strongest Heaven-rank warrior.

w.a.n.g Zheng, Lear, Xie Yuxin, Aina, Ren Yixuan.

The five of them rocked the Milky Way Alliance. Constantine wasn’t at a complete defeat yet. He was thinking about the future. If Aina couldn’t handle the situation in front of her, he would return. The ultimate deciding force was still power. The victor could change history. Aslan held the fate of two people in the five, which was why Lear could survive.

Aina appeared on TV punctually. Everyone, including the other countries in the Milky Way Alliance, was watching. No one knew how Aslan was going to deal with this situation. They wanted to know how Aina was going to explain all this.

Aina showed no sign of pressure. She seemed alert, even more beautiful, and mature.

“Citizens of the great Aslan Empire, thank you for standing with the country during this difficult time. The Aslan Empire is about to face a war. I don’t think it’s going to be a difficult war, because the Aslan Empire is the strongest, unique, and invincible. I believe our Aslan warriors can win every battle!” Aina’s voice spread through the Milky Way Alliance, revealing inspiration and pa.s.sion. The people who were filled with despair suddenly felt pa.s.sion and self-confidence ignite from the bottom of their hearts.

Yes, they were the most powerful Aslan. What was a lost battle? They had spent the most in the military, had the best resource reserves, the most advanced technology and military enterprises, and countless elites. What was there to be afraid of?

“For the past century, the Aslan Empire opposed all terrorist organizations and paid the price with the blood of countless warriors. I, Aina Aslan, vow to annihilate the terrorist organization, the Saint, regardless of the mastermind. Anyone who seeks to tarnish Aslan’s actions and country are our enemies. The Aslan Empire officially declared war on the Arbiter Republic. Brave citizens of the Aslan Empire, we stood together before to create the most powerful country in the history of mankind. Today, we’ll still stand together to destroy all enemies of Aslan. Victory will be Aslan’s!”
