[Human Empire Encampment]

Situated about Kaido's group took a space in between some of the tents and erect a place for their rest inside the Human Empire Encampment, consequently as the day grows deeper into the night one could see the bustling activities of the soldiers infront of their own bonfire

Followingly as everyone took their rest and rested, many of them didn't even took long until they drown in their own sleep that will allow any soldiers that are tensed to feel envy

During this time Kaido took this chance to slip through the darkness and pass through the sleeping soldiers, thus arriving infront of the Queen Empress Evelyn's tent

As he silently walks in, what he saw next was the view of the Queen Empress Evelyn in a one piece nightgown, sitting on a wooden chair while reading a book, at the same time positioned a chess piece on the board

Went Kaido entered the tent, the Queen Empress immediately felt his presence, thus voicing him out

"You don't have to sneakily look into a woman's room right?"

At this question Kaido adruptly glanced around and found out that he was already found out the moment their eyes have met

"!!!"

"Your surprised right? Well we can take our time chatting it out" said by the Queen Empress as she offered the sit opposite of the person herself

At first Kaido was a little bit hesitant, but soon he carefully took the sit and finally saw the situation in the board

Apparently the situation is that the white side has few pawns but has a complete elite, while the black side whom it's only pieces are pawns

At first one could derive that such situation is already hopeless, but if one thread this carefully one could easily answer this problem

As Kaido carefully moved the pieces while still following the rules in chess, the Queen Empress herself finally spoke up

"What do you want? There must be something you want since you took the chance to sneak into my tent"

Being found out Kaido slump down on his chair as he begun the talk

"I want your Sides support"

"Support? On what?" She asked

"Support especially your logistical and strength, and development" specified Kaido

Hearing this request that she didn't expect, Queen Empress Evelyn herself suddenly stopped his reading and looked straight towards Kaido's eye

But when she saw.only a calm stature of.red eyes, she somehow involuntarily sigh

"What do you want support such as that from? And don't you know that if we help you... . . This might cause disruption inside the empire itself?" Asks Queen Empress herself

"I know clearly of what will happen" said Kaido

"The disruption inside the empire is inevitable even if you don't lend a hand" he added

Hearing that the other party became confused as she asked

"What?"

"Easy... . . Because of the sudden change in the ways that the Empire operates, some noble and commoners would become wary of the empire rather than feel safe" stated Kaido

"Following that the execution of people that has ill will on the empire, would again literally worry the common people since most of those executed were all commoners or rats... . . Your majesty, even though you don't do anything, civil war is inevitable"
