Viola really wanted to know what Aero had done to make sure the western kingdom to not attack Duvar

Aero look at Viola and then after he calmed himself down he said to her.

'A Royal rumble. I would like to see who would be the first to break the balance. Would the two allied kingdoms of Savillia and Alfhaim attack Duvar?'

He asked and Viola did not answer. She tried to think whether Savillia and Alfhaim would really did that but Aero answer her question and said

'If they did, Alfhaim would be opening themselves up to be gobbled up by the Church of Light. Those ancient Elves probably would not like the zealotry of the people of Holy Zun Empire, don't you think?'

Smiling, Aero then continues 

'I wrote to them that if the Holy Maiden of the Church conquer their forest settlements and their cities of lights, she would burn their Eternal tree and chopped down their woods. And since I do not lie, those Elves would probably be cautious'

Viola then frowned and asked

 'Then what did you wrote to Savillia?'

'I simply wrote one name'

'Whose name?'

'Zeus' Viola did not understand what Aero is trying to say and achieve by writing one name inside a letter

'That name would make them not send army to Duvar?' Viola asked as Aero smiles and explain to Viola like a patient teacher teaching his student

'Don't you remember what happen before? Sol Queendom, Luna kingdom, Jhaka kingdoms were all were conquered by the steel of the black soldiers of the King of Veva. They fear him. Do not underestimate the fearsome reputation that Zeus had built for himself among the Western kingdoms'

'There is a reason why that name stops Savillia. I am just sending that letter to remind them why they make an alliance and merge the kingdom of Saril and Vor to become the Savillia kingdom. If they make one mistake, then Zeus could take them before Holy Zun could take Veva cities on the southern border'

'Then what words did you send to the Church of Light'

Aero smiles again and then he said

'I send a suggestion'

'What did you suggest?'

'To wait and become the fisherman' Viola frowned.

Aero sighed a bit no longer talking about the three letters he sent to the three forces. Instead his eyes seem to look toward the distance 

'Great Veranis had quite the advantage' he suddenly said

'They would surely try to overwhelm Vanheim by splitting their forces. And this method is probably going to succeed. They would try to harass the borders in order for this to happen'

Smiling, Aero said

'Yet, at the same time, splitting too many of their forces also means that it is easy to route them and capture them. At most they would split the army into four. But knowing Alexander, it would probably only three. Karak probably would attack the highlands of the northern border. Veranis would probably attack to the old region of Vetten and focus on that instead of going to the southern border and antagonize King James.

Viola look at Aero with eyes that are filled with amazement. It almost seems like the Chancellor have all the information of the world on the tip of his finger.

This is the formidable Chancellor of Vanheim who could move the world with one word. 

Unlike the King of Veva who fought constantly in the battlefield with his army and his soldiers, or the Holy Zun Empire Holy Maiden who had to preach and maintain the stability of the Church and the Holy Kingdom with her sword, the Chancellor Aero of Vanheim had always been a man famous for his method in manipulating people and deceiving the world

He did not even have to lead people in the battlefield to win the war. 

It is of course something that no warrior had ever understand. 

There is this image of Aero of a strategist yet also there is this image of him as a peerless warrior. 

The battle between him and King Zeus is something that no warrior had ever forgotten.

Aero basically thrashed him so bad that the King of Veva had almost died. 

His subsequent action which killed forty thousand people is the stuff of legends. 

Some believe that he is a demigod, the son of some gods or goddesses, to be blessed with such unbelievable strength.

As such, his ability to fight is never doubted. 

But at the same time, no one would understand why he would rather remain in the Capital and inside the Six Councils, more content in manipulating the world from behind when he could ride to the battlefield and slay all of his enemies.

Aero himself never explains it. 

The reason is simple. 

The moment he explains why, the myth of his invincibility would crumble. Everyone believe that there is no weapon on the mortal world that could hurt him

And they were not wrong. 

If not at that time Zeus had borrow some heavenly weapon from Apollo and Artemis, Aero probably would not be that docile during that Banquet event.

Viola then reached her conclusion and her eyes narrowed as she said without a doubt in her words

'You have people in the Six Councils' Aero smirking replied

'I have always had people in the Six Councils. 

'This war…was it your making?' she asks. One could see that Viola is not particularly conformable with that thought

Aero smiles and there are a few seconds of silence emetine them. He then said

'I am fishing with a straight hook. Those who want to get caught, will get caught.'

'You're saying that King Alexander wanted this?'

Smiling Aero replied. 

'He marched his army didn't he? If that is not an indication of his desire, then what would you make him do to show his ambition?'

'Are you saying you also have people in King Alexander courts?' Laughing Aero said.

'Well, I could not tell you all of my cards could I?'

'I've known you for a year. I thought I knew all of your trump cards. It seems I know too little about you.'

'Duration of time of knowing someone is never an indication of how much you knew about a person' Aero simply replied.

Aero then sighed. 

This plain in front of him is an important plain. On the other side of the plain is the border between the Empire and Greater Veranis.

There is no line to determine which is which but the flag of greater Veranis were hoisted on the forest near a fort and on the other side of the plain.

And on that other side is a connected forts and a few disconnected stone wall that hoisted the flag of Vanheim.

Right now, the two opposing nations must be formulating plans in their war tents and their army is marching toward the borders.

Not to mention that Karak is also involved. 

All the three great families participated in collusion with Greater Veranis. 

Aero knows why they participated and the chains of events that lead them to throwing their lot with Greater Veranis. But that doesn't matter.

There is probably thousands of plots and schemes that he did not know off. 

If he had to uncover and consider each and every one of them, he better be some seeker of truth instead of a strategist or a politician.

Kyle would have to send some of the army to withstand the Karak army on the northern border. 

Greater Veranis could attack toward the state of Vetten or they could march straight to the many state of Vanheim.

But they could not fight on the southern border. 

Aero knows this. 

Alexander knew all about the internal struggle between the two imperial brother of the Holy Vanheim Empire. 

If he attacked the southern border, that would drag in King of Niovar James into the fold.

If that happens, whatever excuses King James have, he had to participate. 

The reason King James did not participate in this war is because he had sent a report to the Parliament that the rebellion in Niovar is worsening and he could not send any soldiers while pacifying the regions.

And there is also the fact that the Emperor could not trust James to lead his soldiers. Who knows? 

Maybe if James were given full control of the Imperial Amery, he would instead point the sword to the Emperor.

The relationship between Emperor Edward and King jams is a reminiscent of the relationship between King George and Duke Bradheim in the past.

But Edward is not George and James is not Bradheim

Since the southern border would not work, Greater Veranis would attack straight ahead. 

And as such the plains that they are looking at right now is probably one of the sites that would be the clashing points between the two armies.

Aero had predicted a few other sites. As for the other, he already had some plans of how to counter the enemy attack.

But even then This plain is important.

Aero could already see that the resounding clash of the battle between the two nation would rewrite the history of the continent.

It will also determine whether Vanheim would rise ever stronger or declined after this battle.

This plain is one of the place where Aero had once planned its development. 

So he knows it better than even Kyle and Alexander. He hoped that this is where the battle take place and not the other site. 

Because this is the place where he could show his talent. He had been waiting for too long and he had prepared many things for this moment

It is precisely why he had made many plans to ensure that this is the site that Alexander and Kyle would clash over.

He himself maintained contact secret communication with Kyle in the imperial court. 

Since there are not many people he could trust in the Imperial Courts, there is only a few people that knows that he is still alive and that he is in Greater Veranis

This battle is his plan to return back to the world stage. He himself is still the powerful Aero of the East.

The wind blows and Aero could hear the sound of the horn of the changing of an era. Smiling he waited
