Lake Laklima is called the Pearl of the Plateau by the local Nolds. From a distance, the calm lake looks like a mirror reflecting the winter sunshine.

The climate in the northern part of the plateau is colder than in the southern part, but for the hard-working nomadic peoples, as long as they can avoid the invasion of war, some of the cold can be tolerated.

Gunn Ryanfolt, who was originally scheduled to return to the empire in winter, had to stay on the shore of Lake Laclima for the time being due to the sudden civil war in the empire this year.

Just as Gun was anxiously obtaining the latest information from Ereponia through various contact channels, his granddaughter was suddenly taken to the Nold Plateau by Gaius.

From the three evacuated personnel, Gun learned a lot of information that could not be learned from the Nord Plateau.

It has been nearly a month since the civil war broke out on October 30th.

Although Gun had kept in touch with the Third Mecha Division as much as possible, he still knew nothing about the situation in the central part of the empire.

Ryan and Rosay fell from the sky just at this time. Alisa, who was fishing on the pier by the lake, stared at the two people who suddenly landed in front of her in amazement.

"You...you, you, you!"

After throwing the fishing rod, Alisa pointed her fingers at Ryan with trembling fingers, “Why do you fall from the sky!!”

Seeing Alisa still jumping around, Ryan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh~ You still have the energy to ask this kind of questioning with great energy. It seems that at least you don't have to worry about your health."

"You have the nerve to say it!"

Alisa took the first two steps angrily and grabbed the collar of Ryan's dress "Who did you think we would fall to the point of refuge from the Empire?"

"Well..." Ryan raised his hands and posed in an innocent position. "More than half of it is your own fault. Didn't Sharon suggest you stay in Lure? What awkwardness are you doing..."

"Talk!"

Alisa interrupted Ryan's defense unhappily, "Mom actually quickly accepted the fact of the civil war. Now the entire RF group is still working overtime to produce weapons and military supplies. How could I agree with her approach!"

"Oh~"

Ryan glanced at Luo Sai on the side. The loli grandma was almost moving out of the stool and taking out the melon seeds to watch the show.

"I know it's hard for you to understand the current situation. In short, let's go back to the lakeside cabin first... Miliam's eyes are very stunning."

“Haha~”

Baitu, who was also watching the show, smiled and hugged the back of her head and said, "Don't care about me, even if you two kissed each other on the spot, it would just be just to let Class 7 meet and have a more topic of conversation. Please continue."

After hearing Miliam's words, Alisa hurriedly let go of Ryan's clothes. She turned her head and waved her fist with a flushed face and retorted, "I won't!"

...

"So that's how it is."

In Guen's cabin, the former RF Group president holding a pipe sighed deeply.

"Although I had already predicted the situation in the empire, I didn't expect it to develop to this point in just over half a month."

Gaius, who led his tribesmen, shook his head helplessly, "Just as the master predicted, once the war fire ignites, no one can stop it."

"Where will this civil war that swept across Hereponia bring this ancient empire?"

Ryan shrugged, "I also want to know what someone is trying to do to induce the civil war by deliberately induced, and why he chose this opportunity to disappear from the public's sight and hide behind the scenes."

Guen exhaled a puff of cigarette solemnly, "Prime Minister Osborne... I have had a lot of contact with him, and the train cannon was an order he personally placed."

"As the helm of the empire, he has been pulling the empire in a very dangerous direction for more than ten years."

"The tough merger of Zhulai City, the omnipresent intelligence and pressure on Crossbeer, and even the covetousness of Northampulia, made me and a group of old guys very worried."

"Wait...wait!"

Alisa looked at her grandfather in surprise and asked, "Grandpa, what you and Reinhardt meant... This civil war was not sudden at all, but something that Prime Minister Osborne had planned long ago?!"

Ryan smiled and touched Alisa's soft blonde hair to comfort her "Although some details differed from his expectations, in the overall situation... they were indeed following his plans."

Alisa glared at Ryan fiercely, "Why didn't you tell me until today! You, grandpa and mother, you have always expected the situation, but you keep me in the dark, I..."

Seeing the aggrieved expression on Alisa's face, Guen smiled bitterly and said, "Sorry, Alisa."

"It's better if we judge some things that we don't let you know. Prime Minister Osborne's foresight is not something that you just want to intervene. Disclosure in advance will only increase your pressure and will not be a good thing for your growth."

Gaius asked calmly, "That is, is it the right time now?"

"Well..." Ryan turned to look at Miliam who had been listening silently. "I'm going to ask us little spy, what is your uncle thinking?"

“Eh?”

Miliam was confused when she heard Ryan’s question, then she waved her hand and said, “Wait! I don’t know that uncle was pretending to die.”

"Although I guess he shouldn't die so easily... but Claya and Reckett never told me about his plan!"

Ryan nodded without comment, "I guess so, since you entered the Seventh Class, the Prime Minister should have chosen to conceal some information from you. Maybe... Even Captain Levitt and Rector don't know."

The other three were confused by Ryan's statement, but Guen raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

“…Reinhardt, have you found the 'child' leader hidden in the dark?”

"ha?"

Ignoring Miliam's confused exclaim, Ryan nodded slightly, "I already have a unclear idea, but there is still a long way to get him out."

Of course, this was intentionally nonsense by Ryan. He could not say in front of Miriam, "I have memorized all the birth dates of your boss, and even the source of his chaotic family affairs and twists are clear."

Although the White Rabbit has been infected and assimilated by Class 7 after a period of time, she is still very strong in her intelligence agency. Who knows if this girl will turn around and tell Rector and Claya.

"Hmm~huh~"

Guen took a heavy breath of his pipe, and while spitting out the smoke, he said seriously, "Although I don't know what is going on within the aristocratic sect now, but... the four famous sects are not a solid piece, right?"

Ryan nodded with a wry smile, "Grandpa Guen is keen. Not to mention the four famous sects, even my father and I have many different opinions."
