The representatives of many nations in the venue wore shifting, uncertain expressions: the Harrises clearly no longer minded exposing their ambitions.
"This is mainly to ensure that, after Allen enters the Underworld, certain countries won't make any little moves in the shadows to endanger the alliance... At this life-or-death moment, we absolutely cannot allow the previous situation of hostility toward the Empire to appear again, whether openly or in secret," Owen said loudly, raising his index finger. "When the Wizard Emperor of my Magical Empire enters the Underworld to wage war for the living, as his father, I must ensure he will not be interfered with by the living. So when the time comes, conflict between countries will absolutely not be permitted... Otherwise, the Magical Empire will lead the other member states in sanctioning any country that still acts out of selfish interest in such extraordinary times..." He lowered his hand and pleaded solemnly, "So I sincerely hope everyone can join the alliance with resisting the Grim Reaper as the foremost goal, and work together to resist the Grim Reaper and restore peace to the mortal world."
The representatives below looked at Owen, knowing the Magical Empire believed it was not enough for it to merely hold the position of President in an organization like the International Confederation of Wizards, whose members were essentially equal. Instead, it wanted to use this opportunity to maintain a naturally superior position in international society from now on—so long as Allen Harris truly saved the world, that prestige and the subtle advantages it brought would allow them to maintain the status of world police and mediator.
By signing alliances with every country, it would become the leader of this new, worldwide alliance empire, established outside the International Confederation of Wizards and possessing greater authority.
