The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 925: Public Interview



Henrietta knew that the longer she delayed the meeting with the Freedom Federation, the stronger her negotiating position would be.

Moreover, she was not too interested in the Freedom Federation since it had only expressed its intention to enter an alliance with the Black Rose Empire and not join the United Nations as a vassal country.

After all, what kind of era did the Freedom Federation still think it was for it to make such an offer?

Henrietta was displeased by the Freedom Federation's arrogance.

If the Freedom Federation still thought it was the central figure of the human race and believed it could regain its dominance, then it was simply delusional. It was impossible for the Freedom Federation to catch up with the United Nations.

In fact, Henrietta felt it was ridiculous that so many countries had yet to join the United Nations when they had so many benefits to offer.

Why was it so difficult to unite the human race when there was a bigger threat on a grand scale? Why must humans continue to compete with each other?

It was because they were ill-informed.

In the face of change, they did not find it easy to embrace it with acceptance. Instead, they feared it with strong distrust due to the unknown.

Many countries were used to the comfort of their independent governance and did not understand the benefits of joining the United Nations. They were afraid they would be deprived of their basic rights and be treated less than human if they fell under the control of another country.

History has shown how poor the conditions had been for defeated countries. As such, it was also difficult to change history.

To rectify this situation, Henrietta created a public interview and utilized recording technology to help spread the information in it.

Furthermore, to give credibility to the public interviewed, she personally attended the interview as a guest to answer the questions. She went a step further and also invited foreign guests to ask their questions.

Of the invitations sent, Emperor Varan of the Great Ratholos Empire and King Herman Winston of the Eastern Wind Kingdom on the United Nations' side came personally.

Because of their presence, the interview almost became a political meeting between world leaders.

Alas, no one else of the same status came from the Divine League and Freedom Federation. After all, the situation in the United Nations seemed uncertain to the rest of the world.

No one could be sure that the invitation to the interview session was a ploy to capture the world leaders as hostages.

As such, the Divine League only sent three representatives, while the Freedom Federation sent ten people. There were also a few other representatives from smaller countries attending.

If not for the great distance to other countries in the southern half of Pangea, more foreign representatives would have attended.

A total of twenty foreign guests had gathered in five days.

Today was the day of the public interview, held in an open space venue with seats, tables, food, and drinks provided. It seemed more like a conference and less like an interview, given the number of attendees.

Recording magic tools were also set up around the outside of the open venue. Once everything was ready, Henrietta gestured to the foreign guests to ask their questions.

"Your Majesty, what is your Black Rose Empire trying to achieve by establishing the United Nations?" a male representative of the Freedom Federation immediately asked a serious question.

"I don't think such an obvious answer needs to be said. However, for the sake of this interview, I will answer - As everyone has already guessed, we are trying to unify all human countries under one banner," Henrietta calmly admitted.

A murmured discussion immediately started among the group of foreign guests as they whispered to each other at their group tables.

Although everyone knew the answer to the question, they still had to hear it personally.

Nevertheless, only Emperor Varan and King Herman kept their silence.

"Why do you want to unify the human countries, Your Majesty? Is it simply for world domination? Or something more noble?" another male representative from the Freedom Federation asked with a sly smile.

Regardless of which answer Henrietta gave, he was prepared to make her country look bad.

However, Henrietta soon gave an answer that he did not expect.

"World domination? Something noble? That's hard to say. It could be world domination or it could be something noble. It could even be both," Henrietta stated vaguely.

"However, that's not for me to say. Whether it is the Black Rose Empire or the other members of the United Nations, we are only following the will of my husband, Vaan Raphna. Only he could give you the answer you seek to that question."

"What I can tell you, though, is that while we are trying to unite humanity for a good cause, we are also not running a charity here," Henrietta added.

"What do you mean by those words, Your Majesty?" a male representative from the Divine League asked with a frown.

"What I mean is exactly that - We will try to save Pangeans from a possible extinction posed by outside threats. However, we won't do it for free, and we will definitely not care about those who don't want to pay the price to be saved," Henrietta seriously stated.

Her words immediately drew frowns on the face of every foreign guest.

Even King Herman of the Eastern Wind Kingdom frowned despite having already entered the United Nations.

Only Emperor Varan showed no visible change in his expression. He only came today as a listener. Thus, he didn't have any opinion to express.

"As far as I know, if Gehenna wanted to wipe us out, they would have done it long ago," the male representative from the Divine League immediately mentioned.

"Even if the Great Devils suddenly changed their minds due to Great Devil Abaddon's death, it would have nothing to do with us. Thus, when the wrath of the Great Devils descends, it would only be on your United Nations."

"A lot of humans might die as a result, but it won't be all of us. So, I don't know where this so-called threat of extinction you mentioned comes from, Your Majesty?" the Divine League

representative questioned.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Henrietta glanced at him and sneered, "That's because you are ignorant."

"Do you think Pangea and Gehenna are the only worlds in this universe and the next? If you knew how frequent wars between realms break out on Gehenna's side, you realize how

fleeting your life is."

"However, that kind of threat is still nothing compared to the hidden threat we face on our side!" Henrietta strongly stated.

In that instant, Emperor Varan lost his calmness as he was startled by her words.

At the same time, he quickly understood why King Herman and he, members of the United

Nations, were also invited to this public interview for foreign countries.

Some important information on the hidden threat was about to be revealed!
