"So you do have a plan after all; I was worried that you were plunging yourself into danger without thinking about everything properly…"
Ignoring Ashtel's concern-filled words, Rio sipped the tea, looked into Ashtel's eyes, and spoke.
"Although I can't tell you the plan right now, as you know, the demon king can predict it and find out about it if I speak about it…"
"I can atleast tell you that it would be wise for the human empire and the rest of the world alliance to start preparing for a massive-scale world war…"
"I am sure you can also sense the increasing sense of foreboding… something big is likely going to happen soon; we need to be ready for this…"
Rio's words carried a rare solemnness, and even Ashtel felt a bit shaken after hearing them.
Up until today, Rio had no genuine reason to convince Ashtel and the rest of the world alliance to start preparing for a war.
