The Martial Unity

Chapter 2154  Planning Visit

His conversation with his father ended after the two covered a large array of topics. Rui mulled over the conversation and the various things in it that pertained to him.

His father had warned him to be careful at the Panamic Martial Federation headquarters.

The Panamic Martial Federation did not exist independently of the forces of the Martial World. It was constituted of and founded by the forces of the Martial World for the sake of Martial Art as a whole.

In other words, it could never be neutral. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

His father had already warned him that he would be suspected of knowing something about the mass Apprentice breakthroughs just because of his power, authority, and influence within the Kandrian Empire.

There was no way that the Panamic Martial Federation would not be used as a vehicle by the other three Sage-level powerhouses of East Panama to pressure Rui into divulging any secrets that he might be aware of. They would most likely at least try to trick him into revealing some details.

Interestingly enough, his father denied the possibility of force being employed to extract any secrets that Rui had on the matter.

"While the Panamic Martial Federation is constituted of forces and powers that serve as its legislative body, its laws are enforced by a force led by ten Martial Sages who fulfill the role that the Primordial Martial played when he was still a Sage—enforcing the rules," his father had explained. "In other words, one does not mess around in or near the Panamic Martial Federation headquarters."

If that was the case, then Rui supposed that there were no risks of force being used while he was at the Panamic Martial Federation headquarters. In other words, he needed to not only get briefed but also avoid giving away any details regarding the mass Apprentice breakthroughs. In addition, he also had the mission to compel Sage Kole Kellin to join the Kandrian Empire and the Royal Army in exchange for healing her disease and restoring her body to its previous peak and even beyond.

This was undoubtedly the most challenging part.

Because he would essentially need to divulge the fact that they had the support of the Divine Doctor and was able to make use of his services, all without knowing whether she would agree or not.

He highly doubted that she would simply join him in the Kandrian Empire without some guarantees and certainties. Furthermore, he would need to plan his approach based on her personality and temperament.

It was going to be challenging to juggle all these matters at once.

However, he was confident.

Considering that his father hadn't specifically told him he could divulge this to the Martial Union, he could assume that his father would rather they didn't know yet.

The most challenging part of this would be convincing her to serve his father, a human emperor, when she had served as a councilor of the Panamic Martial Federation.

In other words, he highly doubted that she would be deeply pleased about needing to serve a non-Martial leader.

On the other hand, she was allegedly someone with a military background, as his father pointed out, so he wasn't sure how things would work out.

"…Her condition prevents her from being able to control her power and to prevent it from going berserk, she has sealed her Heart, Mind, and the Third Eye forever," Rui read through the intelligence report that his father had prepared for him. "Interesting."

Considering that she referred to the source of power of the Sage Realm as the Third Eye, Rui could already identify her ethnicity based on that alone. "She was of the now deceased Quetzel Kingdom in West Panama…" Rui's eyes widened as he understood why she joined the Panamic Martial Federation. "As the sole Martial Sage of her Kingdom, her condition deprived the kingdom of its sole protection from enemy Martial Sages. Eventually, the kingdom was ravaged before eventually ceasing to exist. All because she was afflicted with a medical condition that denied her any control and stability over her own power."

Rui couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for her. If she was the loyal type, then she probably blamed herself for the demise of her kingdom, harboring an immense amount of guilt, yet powerless to do anything about it.

He also couldn't imagine how frustrating it was to have fully functioning and intact Realms of power, but forced to seal them forever nonetheless due to losing complete control over her immense power.

After all, a Martial Artist who couldn't control her own movements was definitely not going to be able to prevent her power from going berserk.

He felt for her as a Martial Artist, but he was quite grateful for it as someone who was trying to win her over to the Kandrian Empire.

After all, if it truly brought her as much pain as he suspected it did, then she would be deeply foolish to refuse a miracle of an opportunity that could undo all her pain.

As for whether she could be restored, he had no doubt that the Divine Doctor was able to fix whatever was afflicting her.

He had proven time and time again that his reputation preceded him with the feats he had accomplished with just a little bit of exertion.

Rui continued to flesh out his diplomatic approach as he gained a better understanding of his target. Normally, his father would have personally guided him on how he ought to approach this diplomatic operation.

However, they both knew that he didn't need it. He had proficiency and even some good experience with diplomacy during his time as a Martial Artist. He understood what were the constraints and conditions to success and what he would need to do to adhere to and fulfill them.

In addition to preparing for his visit to the Federation, he also made sure to prepare for his departure from the Kandrian Empire, breaking additional batches of kids to the Apprentice Realm so that they could be showcased to the world as per schedule to make sure no one tied his departure to the absence of Apprentices breakthroughs.
