Ivita received news from the western front within the eastern military camp. The armies of the Kingdom of Frank, which had initially gained the upper hand, swept through unhindered until they encountered the forces from the Three Northern Undead Kingdoms that had invaded from the north.
This led the forces of the Kingdom of Frank to fall into an undead calamity for a time, reversing the situation.
At the same time, in the Kingdom of Frank, the King of Brandy and the Champagne Kingdom took the initiative to mediate, intending to facilitate a meeting between Ivita and the Emperor of Frank to negotiate peace.
Within the tent, the Hearthstone Witch paced back and forth. "Your Majesty, why would that king suddenly intervene in our affairs? Is this taking sides?"
"He chose to intervene at this moment—just when we had gained the upper hand."
