Thinking of this, Komer's gaze subconsciously drifted towards the map hanging on the wall. Above Homer were the regions of Silesia, part of the Ferdinand Family, and Poznan, belonging to the Heine Family. These two regions, like a solid barrier, had long protected the entirety of Homer. However, once the entire North, including Jazair, had fallen, the significance of Silesia and Poznan for Homer had substantially diminished. Especially Poznan, in Komer's eyes, the Heine Family of Poznan was simply a local yokel ripe for the taking, a family lacking in foresight and content with mere survival, yet daring to conspire with the Beastmen for a skin-deep alliance. Wasn't this simply courting death? With a mindset so simple, since they were looking for death, why not just benefit oneself instead?
