[Shortly after, Gremory's Dungeon.]
When there are multiple fronts and a powerful enemy among them, you make it too unpleasant for them to fight.
Whether through diplomacy, agitation, or peace overtures, the primary objective is to buy time by any means necessary, and I had successfully thrown the Leo Marquisate into chaos.
"The Goddess Church, now the enemy of the elves. Can the marquisate really handle that situation on its own?"
"Not a chance. The Elf Queen sided with the Demon King's Army, after all."
"Hehe, exactly. At the very least, the marquisate will be paralyzed until someone on the level of the Saintess or a cardinal shows up."
It was an optimistic outlook, but as long as Marquis Leo was alive, he would most likely refrain from attacking us.
