Jennysis looked at the sky outside the window, and saw the black smoke columns floating out of the chimneys in the industrial area with a solemn expression.

She opened her lips slightly: "Burning Empire?"

Traveling all the way from the south, Jennysis witnessed everything about the empire with her own eyes, and she truly felt the changes in the lives of the people of Anzeta - it was a brand new way of life that she had never seen before.

It is undeniable that the lives of the Anzeta people, who were once plagued by hunger and cold, have indeed improved a lot.

But Jenny Heath also discovered the dangers hidden behind these seemingly beautiful appearances——

war.

This country is like a machine tailor-made for war, and everyone is just a part of this huge machine.

She had witnessed the wars that followed the emergence of guns and artillery in the south, which was the source of her vigilance against the empire.

With the help of these terrifying weapons, even wars between mortals have become extremely cruel, as if hell has come to earth.

Jennyhis couldn't imagine what kind of disaster the entire Feanso would suffer once this war machine was running at full capacity.

The forest full of flowers and birds was ruthlessly destroyed by artillery fire. Humans, elves, and halflings were all shot through by dense bullets, and the earth was also riddled with holes and charred by the baptism of artillery shells.
Moreover, Jennysis, who has been in human society for hundreds of years, can see that the empire's system was deliberately designed by a certain existence behind the scenes - the Burning Emperor, Cassius.

Jennysis harbors hidden hostility towards the emperor. She believes that this red dragon is likely to become a threat to the world.

The red dragon had severely wounded her father, destroyed a human kingdom, and built a massive war machine.

Even though Osedro had instructed in advance not to pursue past grudges and to assist the empire in resisting the demon invasion, Jennysis still found it difficult to get rid of the grudge in her heart.

The Melward clan is the guardian of Feanso's order. How can they sit idly by and watch an empire that will obviously undermine peace and destroy order grow and develop?

"Casius, no matter how powerful you are, I will never give up."

She thought so in her heart.

Jenny Heath crossed her arms in front of her, letting her silver hair fall down her shoulders like a waterfall, with a look of determination in her beautiful eyes.

Even if even her father doesn't support her, she will never give up.

Not only does she have to resist the invasion of demons, but she also has to collect intelligence about the empire, find the red dragon's weakness, and try her best to eliminate this threat.

Olivia is still too immature.

The young silver dragon was blinded by the beautiful appearance of the empire and bewitched by the words of the red dragon.

And Jenny Sishi was confident that she would never make such a mistake.

Suddenly, a quick ring rang. Olivia took out the communicator from her pocket and looked at the message on it. Surprise suddenly appeared on her pretty face.

"Casius is awake!"

She said in an excited tone.

Olivia turned to look at Jenny Heath: "And aunt, Mr. Trump said that Cassius would be happy to meet with you."

"now?"

"Well, now."

But Olivia seemed to remember something, with worry in her eyes. She hesitated for a moment, then whispered:
"Aunt, I still hope you can put aside your prejudice, especially when we meet later."

She looked into Jennysshi's equally blue-gray eyes with a serious expression.

"Whatever you think of the Empire, it would be irrational to conflict with Cassius at this critical juncture.

Demons are always Myhrvold’s greatest enemy. My grandfather has been committed to keeping demons out of the main material plane for nearly a thousand years. This is him.”

"Of course I know."

Jennysis sighed softly and interrupted the other person.

“Olivia, you are still too naive. My point is still the same: the enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend. Fighting against demons cannot change the brutal nature of the empire.

Of course, I will still complete the task my father has assigned me, and I will not be so foolish as to confront the red dragon head-on at this time."

Jenny Heath, the "Pearl of Korda".

However, she has another title that is widely circulated in the good camp - Silver Scale.

As the daughter of Osedro, she is recognized within the tribe as the silver dragon with the most similar personality to that of the Silver Wing.

Stubborn, hates evil, and is wise.

Olivia knew that she couldn't change her aunt's mind, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

She led the way, preparing to head to the Imperial Council Hall - where there was a portal leading directly to North Wind Castle.

Jenny Sishi stared at Olivia's back with a frown on her face.

Just now when she learned the news that Cassius had awakened, she noticed that Olivia's mood was a little strange. Was it surprise?

Had she really succumbed to the red dragon?

Most of the elders in the clan were positive about Olivia becoming the so-called "councilor" of the empire, believing that she could play a role and lead the empire towards justice. But now it seems that this may not be the case.

You know, Olivia is a younger generation that her father has high hopes for.

She was only eighty years old, and had already become a great wizard at such a young age. She was expected to become the successor of the Melward clan in a thousand years.

Young dragons always make mistakes. I hope I am wrong, thought Jennysis.

Ripples appeared in space, and Olivia and Jenny Sishi appeared out of thin air in the administrative hall of North Wind Castle.

"Good day, Ms. Olivia."

"By the way, you are the envoy coming to see His Majesty, please follow me."

The half-dragon guards had been waiting for a long time. The captain stepped forward and spoke respectfully.

"Ok."

Jennysis nodded slightly and smiled politely.

But she sensed the guard's unmistakable red dragon features—the frilly ears, the small scarlet scales, the sulfurous breath.

There was hostility subconsciously in her eyes.

Half-red dragon.

At least in Feanso, most of these beings are mercenaries from Hell, followers of evil dragons, or high-ranking officials of the Church of Tiamat.

Ordinary red dragons do not have the ability to bestow such a high concentration of dragon blood, so those who can receive this "gift" are usually the most devout believers of Tiamat.

For hundreds of years, Jennyssi had often fought with these ferocious-looking guys, but when she arrived in Anzeta, she actually wanted to become an ally with these half-red dragons?

Such a contrast was really hard for her to accept.

"My father told me to do that."

“It’s all about the mission”

Jennysis followed the guards and said this in her heart.

Olivia was already familiar with the situation. Having been a senator in the empire for a year, she was already accustomed to getting along with these "evil races".

Soon, under the protection of the guards, they arrived at the foot of Dragon Mountain, where the palace was located.

Jennyssi raised her head and looked at the majestic palace made of steel and rock that blended into the mountains with a solemn expression.

She could tell at a glance that this palace was not built by manpower, but was directly created by some kind of magic-like power.

She also keenly noticed that the palace was extremely exquisite. Even for her father, a legendary wizard, it would probably take a lot of effort to complete it.

"Is this the residence of His Majesty?"

"It should be here."

Olivia's expression was somewhat surprised at this moment. In just one year, the palace where she once lived had undergone such great changes.

Although it does not look completely different from the outside, its scale is much larger than before, occupying almost half of Longshan Mountain.

"boom--"

The heavy door slowly opened, and Olivia and Jenny Heath entered one after another.

After walking along that long road, they finally saw the main hall of the palace, with hundreds of stone steps in front of it.

"We're meeting again"

"He should become stronger."

For some reason, Olivia felt a little nervous looking at the palace door carved with a majestic dragon head.

Compared to what she remembered, the palace had become much taller and more majestic, but it was still filled with the familiar smell of sulfur.

Olivia was sure that this was where Cassius lived.

And Jennysis also felt the overwhelming pressure around her.

Dragon power.

Moreover, it was an extremely powerful dragon might that could make an adult silver dragon like her feel fear and tremble. Even her father could not do that.

Even the previous great elder she had met, the ancient silver dragon who was over two thousand years old, did not have such a powerful dragon might.

This red dragon is more powerful than she imagined.

Thinking of this, Jenny Sixi became even more alert. She took a deep breath, and sweat oozed from her fair skin. Her silver-gray eyes were full of solemnity.

"boom--"

The palace gate burst open. (End of this chapter)
