"Well, I'll think about it."

"I prefer you don't join that. It's too dangerous." Melissa frowned. She doesn't want her son to take a risk. Countless young men had died due to military enlistment in the past. He could still remember the faces of the grieving families.

He has a perk as an official investigator. They can participate if there's a war whenever they want.

'It seems I need to make a trip to our base about the situation of this country.' Fein caressed his chin and began to ponder.

He only has a little information about their country in his predecessor's memory. The only thing he knew was, their country is called 'San Fernando' and that it was a member of the 'Xeno Great Alliance'. Xeno Great Alliance is an alliance of five countries. The first president, San Fernando Country, had proposed an alliance with its neighbors because they were in the same zone. The San Fernando Country stood at the center of the South and five countries surrounded it.

Felmundia, San Luebisto, Hosu, San Fernando, and Vidayas make up the alliance. In their alliance, Felmudia, San Luebisto, and Hose had the power to decide for the alliance because of their status as great countries. San Luebisto became a great country because of the three S-rank degu users in the royal family, and they also had the Vladimir Family which has two S-ranks who has a good relationship with the royal family. A country is only qualified to be called 'Great Country' if they had at least five S-rank degu users.

Fein knew San Luebisto and Felmundia as he had been there before, and that's also where Vladimir's family lives. As for the other three, he doesn't know an inkling about them.

With his knowledge of history that he got from books in the different libraries, he knew a lot of things about the situation on the continent of Germundia. But what confused him was there is no recorded information about the situation of the continent at all.

The books showed that the entire Germundia Continent is composed of five areas. They are the North, South, East, and Central Plains. Each side has its alliance. The North has two alliances of countries and they are currently at war with each other. They are the 'Mountain Valley Great Alliance' and the Light Alliance.

Mountain Valley Great Alliance had this name because the countries were located at the top of an enormous mountain range. The alliance had a total of seven members: Reisurance, the great country that leads them, and six other countries.

The war had reached its final phase, and only one of them would rule over the North. After all, two tigers cannot share the same mountain! they fought for the resources, and their conflict had become more intense that their grudge had already become unresolvable.

Fein wasn't optimistic about the 'Mountain Valley' at all because S-rank could change the situation of the war. And the S-ranks of the 'Light Alliance' didn't make a move yet. twelve S-rank degu users in the 'Mountain Valley' while twenty-two in the 'Light Alliance'. Even an idiot would know the result just based on this.

On the other hand, their enemy 'Light Alliance' is composed of only three members; Remedio is a Great Country with seven S-ranks, and Sword King Sect that listed in the top eight sects because they have six S-rank degu users. The sect master, three great elders, and their two core disciples. All of them used swords as their fighting style. And Lastly, Gustavo Country is also a great country and they have the largest number of S-rank degu users on their side. A whopping nine of them!

One can see that, even though the 'Mountain Valley' has the advantage of numbers, they're still on the losing end because they only had one great country. The only reason they can hold the might of three great forces is because of their combined military might.

The North is the only one that had two alliances occupying it. While the South, East, West, and Central Plains had only one, respectively. Fortunately, the four of them aren't at war with each other yet because of the war between humans and demons. But

When Fein had learned this, he knew just how tense the situation of the Continent he resides in was. That's why he wants to become S-rank as soon as possible. If he becomes S-rank, then their country would have five S-rank degu users! At that time, San Fernando Country would qualify as a Great Country because of him! At that time, even if a war broke out between the Alliances, they could face the others with confidence!historical

He knew that, if the pressure of the demons disappear, the war would soon come... And he knew he need to prepare himself for this.

'Hmm... Now that I think about it. Who are the other four S-rank in our country?' Fein became curious. 'Well, I would ask the captain later.'

In the South, the has seven countries and small two kingdoms. Two great countries lead the alliance because of their powerful strength. But Fein wasn't familiar with them, because the books had limited information about them.

Each alliance always looks out warily at each other, and information about them is properly controlled. He only luckily got the information about the North because of Vladimir's Secret Library. As for East, West, and the Central Plains, which is the strongest. Currently, he doesn't have any information about them!

That's why after he ascends to S-rank. He plans to gather information about the Alliances on each side and each country that belonged to them!

Fein clenched his fist with excitement. 'It's time to show my might in the open! Let's see if those S-rank would dare to fight me after I ascend.' he couldn't help but grin. He also plans to go to the strongest alliance in the Central Plain, where the top one in the ranking list of S-rank lives.

"What are you thinking about? Don't think too much about it. It's a voluntary thing. Even if you don't join, the country won't force you." Melissa patted his daze son and walked through the kitchen to wash the plates.

Fein woke up from his stupor, then bid goodbye to his sister and Melissa to resume his usual training and experiment.
