Udora had imagined countless ways to face the enemy, but the one in front of her was the most difficult for her to accept.
The enemy didn't think about how to torture her or how to interrogate her … because he didn't take the army of Eiseka seriously at all. He even directly said that they didn't deserve to be the enemy of the Kingdom of Karen.
The pride that she had maintained for a long time was completely disintegrated. Udora's confidence was shattered by Sodelor's words. She looked at the ground with a pale face and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Of course, she didn't realize that from the moment she walked into Rasia City, the "psychological war" had already begun.
Was it a coincidence that Kasley said those words in prison? Obviously, from the moment Rasia City was breached, a series of plans against Udora began to work: deliberately dissecting the priest who became a demon in the next room where Kasley was imprisoned, and saying those words and these hints were to let them understand the current "situation" from the root.
After Kasley changed her position unconsciously, he deliberately showed the bridge, army, weapons and trucks in front of Udora, crushing her thoughts of resistance with absolute strength.
This was not a conspiracy, but an open conspiracy — instigating the enemy didn't require violence. Because through the torture of other prisoners of war, Sodelor found that most of the Tuk tribesmen in Eiseka didn't know what a "demon" was. This country practiced autocracy, and there was a typical separation between the upper and lower levels: the people at the bottom believed in the priests devoutly, but they didn't know that they had become the tools of the demons.
Under such a premise, Sodelor's primary goal was to let them realize the problem of the upper level of Eiseka, so that they could put down their opposing positions.
If there was a middle-level priest who was willing to change sides, it would not be as simple as saving a little bit of military expenses for the whole war.
"I …"
Udora began to tremble slightly under the heavy pressure. She said a word, but then she found that she didn't know how to express it.
She was already in a mess, so she turned to look at Kasley helplessly. As a result, the latter raised her head very clearly and said, "If your country can guarantee that the purpose is not to slaughter the Tuk tribesmen, then I am willing to provide you with all the information I know … but I have an additional condition."
"Say it."
"I hope that you can tell those tribesmen the truth of the matter …"
No one wanted to commit treason, but if it was to save the people, it was a completely different story.
That was what Sodelor was waiting for. "The Kingdom of Karen's only goal is to take back the territory that Eiseka has occupied. In other words, if you can convince them to retreat, we won't even need to move a single soldier. After all, I want to save military expenses, don't I?"
But everyone knew that was impossible. Kasley's expression changed. "I can only write a letter to explain to those generals. As for whether they believe me or not, that's another matter."
Seeing her sincerity, Sodelor nodded. "I can sign a magic contract with you. If possible, you won't become a prisoner of war. Instead, you can be a private after passing the examination. However, I will invite you to become a member of my staff. After all, in this place, the information you provide can minimize casualties on both sides, right?"
"A … a magic contract?"
Kasley did not expect that she, a prisoner, could receive such equal treatment. In the sequence of Eiseka, the word "general" sounded intimidating. In fact, when they saw a clergyman, they had to salute respectfully. Basically, they had no political status. They were only valued when there was a war. When there was no war, no one cared about them at all.
Sodelor did not waste any time. With a wave of his hand, he had someone bring the prepared contract. He added what Kasley said on it and showed it to her directly. "If you agree, then sign the contract."
Of course, it did not mean that she would be free after signing the contract. Instead, she was required to serve the army of the Kingdom of Karen for ten years. After ten years, she could obtain the nationality and corresponding status of the Kingdom of Karen. But except for this military operation, she could never return to Eiseka again.
Kasley was a little hesitant. After all, not everyone could completely cut ties with their hometown.
"If we move fast enough, we can solve the problem before the demons harm Eiseka. Do you understand what I mean?"
Sodelor's tone was cold. When Kasley heard this, she could not help but shiver. Then, she immediately picked up a pen and signed it. Then, she pressed her hand on the magic circle and completed the contract signing.
Udora looked at this scene, and the pressure in her heart increased. The first to surrender often received better treatment. She swallowed, but still struggled a little. "What you said, from the beginning to the end, you have not shown any evidence. I already know that your weapons are advanced, but your understanding of the demons … Is it really as thorough as you said?"
Sodelor did not talk nonsense. He raised his hand and pointed upstairs. "Take her upstairs. The Prime Minister will tell her about the demons."
After that, he got up and said to Kasley, "Private Kasley, follow me outside. The reporters need to take pictures."
Kasley did not understand what he meant at all, but she still followed him out. After coming to the position in the inner city courtyard that was originally used by the commanding officer to speak, Sodelor stood beside him and straightened his uniform. The "reporter" with the strange magic circle greeted him. "General Sodelor, I need you to cooperate a little."
"Speak."
"Face to face … and then shake hands. And this —"
"Private Kasley."
"Well, this private needs to take a picture alone."
When Kasley began to pose helplessly, Udora had already come to the room on the upper floor of the tower. The wooden door was pushed open. Roddy, who was studying the map at the desk, turned his head and looked over. "Sit down and talk."
He was wearing a loose linen robe. As he walked over, he waved to the guards at the door. "Let them in."
As soon as he said that, a few thin Teflin soldiers came in. Before Udora could react what was going on, they began to transform in an instant. They became huge and ferocious "demons"!
Because it was indoors, their transformed bodies brought Udora an indescribable sense of oppression. Because Teflin was a real "demon hybrid", it was completely different from the priests who were forced to transform after being infected by the demonic breath. The extremely aggressive breath made her whole body tense, and she could not help but swallow several times.
"Okay, that's enough."
With the words of Roddy, the Teflin soldiers immediately returned to their original appearance. Then they saluted and retreated.
Udora's eyes widened because she thought that these people would die on the spot, but she didn't expect them to turn around and leave as if nothing had happened.
Roddy did not explain anything about demons, but the scene in front of her could already prove the Kingdom of Karen's research level on "demons".
So Udora no longer hesitated. She immediately got up, thought about it, and knelt on one knee. She bowed her head and said, "I am willing to sign a contract to provide all the information I know to the Kingdom of Karen …"
