He cleared his throat and said, "Listen Joey, the rightful owner of this country is Edens."
"You mean… those royals?"
"Yes, those royals."
"Do they even exist now?"
"They do, and they are in the same situation as us. Or should I say they are the best example of what we will become if we don't stop Riku now."
Joey furrowed his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean?"
"Hundreds of years ago… no, it may be a lot more than that. Well, it doesn't matter."
"Are you sure you are--"
"I am sure! Don't sweat on details!"
"Then don't say it in the first place."
"Those Edens form a pact with the government. At that time, constant wars were happening between the kingdom. The Edens had no manpower, but the government did. So they signed a pact, and guess what happened soon after?"
"What?"
"They were betrayed and killed."
"...!"
"All the powers from them were taken, and now… no one gives a damn about them."
