Chapter 515:
After leaving the Presidential Palace, I was on my way to the Kingdom of Amuria to escape from the rebel forces.
While doing so, I was gathering information about what was going on in the Federation.
I can't communicate with the Kingdom of Amuria.
What do you mean?
I don't know, maybe they already have.
Even the Kingdom of Amuria, a small country, has several communication lines. It was not normal for them not to be able to connect.
Did you have any contact with the Iron Knights?
No, for some reason we are not able to communicate with them either. Perhaps there is a problem with our environment.
What is the problem?
I heard about a magic technique that could nullify the effects of the Word Box a long time ago. I thought it was just a legend, but maybe such technology really exists.
If it is true, it would explain why the Federation was in turmoil without me getting any information.
I don't care if it's a legend. What is this magical technology you speak of?
It's called a jamming stone, and the story is that it weakens the effect of the Word Box within a certain range from a certain location.
How large an area?
I don't know the details, but legend has it that it affected an entire country, so I'd say it's pretty broad.
I see.If we can't communicate, I guess we'll have to head out there on our own. I'm sorry, but would you be willing to send one of your high-speed ride-hovers toward the Kingdom of Meltaria?
Yes, I understand. I will have it ready.
I entrusted the ride-hover with a message to the Iron Knights. In the meantime, I am heading to the Kingdom of Amuria.
On the way, I try to communicate with each direction. However, I still cannot make contact with any of them, as if there is a legendary jamming stone.
As president, I feel a little frustrated at my inability to do anything in this crisis.
President, it seems that the rebel forces have found us. A large number of magicrafts are approaching our location.
Are you going to be able to shake them off?
They may be rebel forces, but they were originally allied federal forces, and I would like to avoid combat if at all possible. However, the captain shook his head.
No, sir, they are approaching from three directions, and there is no way out!
I see, there is nothing I can do but to call out to them as president first. If that doesn't work, let's break through one corner of the encirclement.
I called out to the approaching coup forces using the external sound system.
This is Ranelle, President of the Amurian Federation. I don't know to which military unit you belong, but immediately stop and break the encirclement.
Some of the riders of the rebel army's magicrafts moved in agitation at the call. After all, it seems that many of them are just moving under orders. This might be manageable.
If anyone takes part in the attack operation knowing that I am here, it would be treason against the federal government but if you back down, you will not be charged with a crime. I hope you will act according to your own judgment.
The title of president still seems to be in effect as unrest spread among the rebel army's magicraft units, and after a while more than half of them retreated, perhaps having lost the will to fight.
