Wei Dong furrowed his brow and said, "Wait, isn't this our mission in the first place? Why are you suddenly telling me this? But I don't know the exact time for The next Summoner's War."
Wei Dong's question made Polnareff silent for a moment. He seemed to be searching for the right words to explain the complexity and importance of the issue. After a few seconds, Polnareff took a deep breath and his gaze became more determined.
"Yes, Lord Wei Dong, you are right. Participating in the Summon War is indeed one of your missions. But what I want to emphasize is that the upcoming Summon War far exceeds a normal military conflict," Polnareff's voice became deep, carrying an intangible pressure. "Behind this war lies the long-standing conflicts and tensions between Noxus and our hostile nations, a significant test for the future destiny of Noxus."
He paused, looking directly at Wei Dong and God Tone. "The outcome of this Summon War may determine Noxus's position in the Rune Continent and even affect the life and death of our nation. Therefore, we not only need the courage and wisdom of both of you on the battlefield, but also your understanding and acceptance of this significant responsibility."
Wei Dong at this time was puzzled and said, "Wait a minute, the consequence of the failed Summon War is just losing the right to start a war, right? Noxus has a strong military-industrial power, so they shouldn't be afraid of invasion by other countries, right? Why does it feel like if we keep losing, the whole country is going to fall apart?"
Hearing Wei Dong's question, Polnareff showed a complex expression on his face, as if trying to find a suitable way to explain the importance and complexity of this issue. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly spoke, his tone becoming serious.
"Lord Wei Dong, you are right. In theory, the failure of Summon War only means losing the right to start a war. However, you may not realize that there are deeper political and strategic implications behind this," Polnareff took a deep breath and continued, "For a great nation like Noxus, every action we take is being watched by other countries on the Rune Continent. The outcome of Summon War not only relates to the war itself, but also serves as a way to demonstrate our national strength and determination to the outside world."
"If we fail in Summon War, it will not only damage Noxus' international image, but more importantly, it will show our weaknesses to other countries. It might even provoke their ambitions, seeing it as an opportunity to launch a real war against Noxus," Polnareff's expression became more serious, "Moreover, there are complex political conflicts and power struggles within Noxus. The failure of Summon War could become the catalyst for internal division, posing a threat to our ruling stability."
As the focus returned to the quiet at the dining table, Sergeant Rad, who had maintained silence, finally spoke in a deep and serious tone: "Lord Wei Dong, your world... must be much happier than here, right?" A hint of envy and curiosity flickered in his eyes. "On the Rune Continent, war is as normal as it gets. The reason Noxus can establish a foothold on the Rune Continent is precisely because of war."
Sergeant Rad's words made the previously lively atmosphere slightly heavier. He continued, "We here are taught from a young age to fight for the glory of Noxus. War... for us, is both an honor and a means of survival." At this point, a flash of painful memories seemed to cross Sergeant Rad's gaze, but he quickly suppressed that emotion and smiled at Wei Dong and God Tone. "But from what you describe about your world, it seems there is not so much war and conflict there. The people must be living a more peaceful and happier life, right?"
Wei Dong listened to Sergeant Rad's words, paused for a moment, and then said calmly "Every world has its good and bad. Although there is no magic or Summon War on Earth, there are still many troubles and difficulties." His words revealed a longing and complex emotions for his hometown.
Wei Dong broke the silence with his usual relaxed tone, saying: "Ha, at least we don't have to climb such a high tower to eat!" This remark made everyone laugh, lightening the atmosphere considerably.
At this moment, Polnareff's words once again drew everyone's attention back to the serious topic. He continued, "Lord Wei Dong, while Sergeant Rad's words may be somewhat direct, they reflect the true situation of Noxus at present. War for us is not merely a means of maintaining national power and expanding territory; it is fundamentally rooted in our culture and history."
Polnareff's gaze revealed a hint of concern: "Now, on the surface, the country seems calm, but in reality, we have not engaged in any war for over two years. This situation is extremely rare in our history. Our national identity and cultural recognition have largely been solidified and passed down through war. This current stagnation has begun to make the people feel discontent and anxious."
His words made everyone in the room fall silent, even God Tone, who usually faced everything with a relaxed attitude, now appeared serious. Polnareff's words reminded Wei Dong that although they had not been in this world for long, they had already become deeply involved in the ever-changing events of this continent. Every decision and action they made would have a profound impact on this world.
