The Lizardman Territory, located just to the right of the Demon King Territory, was not far from it, yet they still had the audacity to employ covert defiance… because in their minds, the current Demon King Territory did not have the capacity to deal with rebels right now.
Moreover, they had not directly committed betrayal.
They were merely delaying the tributes they owed.
As for whether they could win in a fight, naturally, they couldn't defeat the Demon King Territory. After all… headless knights and black knights, such high-tier units, were not something the lizardmen could resist.
But if they were asked whether they could withstand for a while, then indeed, they could resist for some time. The lizardmen were a significant clan, and the state of the Demon King Territory no longer allowed for prolonged combat engagements… at least, that's what the lizardmen thought.
