DUAL GATES THE WORLD FROM THE PROGRESSOR

Chapter 12: History and geography of the world and leading them to stay at the Secret Palace.

***

Long story short, this world is called Galliather, a world consisting of 3 small continents, 2 unknown continents and 1 main continent called Clyster.

And Kazuki was now in the main continent.

On the main continent there are 2 empires and 13 minor kingdoms and 1 ownerless territory.

The 2 empires were the Arthia Empire and the Razor Empire.

The main continent had an area of about 110 million square kilometers, even though the units of calculation here were different, Kazuki could still figure it out through some experiments on calculations and comparison with Livy.

With a total population of about 1.22 billion people on this continent, about 457 million live in the Arthia Empire.

The Arthia Empire has an area of about 39% of the area of the main continent and for the Razor Empire it has an area of about 26 of the area of the main continent, while the rest is owned by 13 other kingdoms and 1 area that is not owned by anyone other than this forest which has an area of about 10% of the continent's total area and this forest is right in the middle of the Clyster continent.

However, no single country is capable of controlling this forest, so they only make this side of the forest as their national boundary.

The state of this continent was in quite an intense war but the two empires did not participate in the war.

But suddenly the Razor Empire attacked the eastern part of the Arthia Empire with the excuse of wanting to get its past territory that had been taken over by the ancestors of the Arthia Empire.

In order to maintain its sovereignty, the Arthia Empire also put up a fight.

But suddenly 6 other small kingdoms declared war on the Arthia Empire for unclear reasons and joined forces with the Razor Empire to attack it.

Even if they were just an empire, but if the 6 kingdoms united with the Razor empire to attack the Arthia empire, wouldn't the Arthia Empire indirectly be like fighting 2 empires?

Day after day, the Arthia Empire fought very hard, but they were always beaten back by the Razor Empire and the 6 Kingdoms Alliance.

The current internal state of the Arthia Empire was also extremely unstable, the King was seriously ill, the Imperial Family's First Son was a gambler and a drunkard, who was completely indifferent to the Empire's affairs, and the other family members neither had sufficient competence nor strong support.

So that only Princess Olivia is the best candidate to lead this Empire, apart from this girl having a very great genius in the field of magic and politics, this girl also has a strong sense of responsibility coupled with her incomparable beauty which makes her respected and praised as the strongest genius and the most beautiful woman in the world. this continent.

The Empire's responsibility this time was completely in Olivia's hands.

This is what caused Olivia to want to go to the Razor Empire for diplomacy and talk to the Crown Prince of the Razor Empire who has the ambition to conquer the territory of the Arthia Empire.

Since the normal road that connected the two Empires was currently still ravaged by a huge war, it would be absolutely impossible to go through the normal path, so Livy decided to take the road that went through the Great Erchellot Forest to reach the Razor Empire.

Even though before they decided to depart via this path, the explorers had confirmed that there would be no monsters on this path at this time.

But what happened was the opposite, suddenly their group was ambushed by dozens of very strong monsters.

And if told briefly, the story is their soldiers and even Livy lost then came a hero who came too late and killed all the monsters that finally made the princess fall in love, and the story is over.

That's about the story...

The moment Kazuki saw those stats, he was immediately stunned like a statue.

'F-Forty thousand?!!! His highest stat is forty thousand?!'

Although his surprise was not shown on his face, it could still be seen from his movements that froze slightly for a few seconds.

'Even my stats haven't reached that number yet...'

'Ack! My strange skill has increased by one!'

[...Congratulations, Master, you finally got the skill you were meant to get!]

'I don't need it.'

Livy, who noticed Kazuki's changing expression, finally asked, "Kazuki, is something wrong?"

Hearing Livy's question immediately brought him out of his contemplation, "Ahh... It's nothing, I just thought of something trivial."

Glancing at Livy again, Kazuki realized something.

"Hey Livy, since your entourage has become like this, are you going to continue on your way?" asked Kazuki while looking at Livy's face.

When she heard the question, she immediately looked at Kazuki and thought about it.

"Umm... It seems impossible to continue the journey this time. Apart from the horse carriage and some documents that have been destroyed, some of my soldiers have also died, and most of the remaining ones are still mostly seriously injured..." Livy said softly.

Kazuki saw that it was getting dark and asked Livy, "Ahh... Livy, it's getting dark. Do you and your troops want to set up camp here? Isn't it very dangerous?"

Livy was instantly stunned upon hearing a fact she had forgotten.

"T-Then what should we do? Many of the soldiers right now are still seriously injured and need a lot of treatment, and there's also no town for us to live in near here..." Livy said with slightly trembling lips.

She still remembered how strong the monsters here were. Her magical energy had yet to recover, and the soldiers also couldn't fight for the time being.

'Even this girl is still worrying too much about her soldiers...'

Kazuki was completely in awe of Livy's character, even when her head and hair were still wet with her blood.

Raised the hand...

Kazuki subconsciously raised his hand and caressed the girl's hair gently.

"Hiii~...!"

Livy was a little surprised by what Kazuki did, but she still enjoyed it.

Knowing that Livy was enjoying his caresses, Kazuki was a little embarrassed when he came to his senses but continued on for a few more minutes.

The girl's blood had also dried so it wasn't hard to caress her.

'Livy looks like a cute cat when petted, her stiff face replaced by a soft and comfortable face...'

It's a good thing the two of them did it in a private tent, otherwise... It's possible that the soldiers would be talking about the two of them.

Well… Even though the soldiers were already talking about the two of them before Kazuki even realized it.

After a few minutes had passed, Kazuki also raised his hand.

"Uhhh~..."

Knowing that Kazuki ended her hand caressing, Livy pouted and looked at Kazuki with her cute hostile face.

"Why did you end it too soon~...?!" Livy protested to Kazuki.

"Ahhh Livy... I've been at it for ten minutes..."

Livy who heard the statement was slightly surprised and asked, "R-Really?"

"Of course Livy~, I'm not lying."

"Uuu~...Okay..."

Even though Livy nodded, she was still a little sad that the caressing had ended too soon.

Seeing that Livy was still pouting, Kazuki offered to let her and her troops stay at his nearby residence.

"Hey Livy, since you and your troops don't have a comfortable place to rest, how about you all stay at my residence which is nearby?" he suggested.

Livy was surprised by the offer. "What... Where do you live? Do you live here?!" she asked.

Kazuki scratched his head and replied, "Ahaha... Not here, but it's more accurate to say that the place where I stay when I came here was temporary."

Livy was still doubtful about the size of Kazuki's residence. "I see... But can your residence accommodate more than a dozen people?"

"Don't worry, Livy, my living quarters are more than enough to accommodate even more warriors," Kazuki said confidently.

Livy was pleased with the offer and couldn't refuse it. "Alright, then Kazuki, please show us the way!" she exclaimed, shaking his hand.

"U-Uhh... Kindly follow me," Kazuki said, feeling a little embarrassed but also happy that he could help Livy and her troops.
