Rui sharpened his eyes. "…I'm guessing you want me to do something about it."
"I hate to say, but there's not much I can do about it," Emperor Rael remarked. "Most of the marine therianthropes have joined Kiriket, so they are able to hamper our attempts to strike an outreach with the Harmonist Faction. My goal was to provide the Harmonist Faction with resources and support to help him push back, but it hasn't worked out. Not to mention…"
He shook his head.
"It won't work out as long as we don't solve the issue of the Dragon Emperor and the Ryu Clan."
Rui fell into thought. "…I guess Authority of Alpha is the biggest impediment."
"Indeed," Emperor Rael replied with a more grave tone. "Authority of Alpha is disastrously dangerous to us. If something happens to you, then the beasts and monsters of our continent may become a liability once more."
