Novel Full 627 Removing Masks
[I… Get it. What about the three sovereigns’ offers?]
[I’m ready to conclude them right now] I was ready to do so two months ago, [As compensation, I’m ready to exchange other bones as well. Ah, you didn’t send me the list of bone exchange price list yet]
[This… I got lost in the ongoing events after we talked and…]
[No problem] I got what he wanted to say, [Just tell them to prepare a list fast]
[Cool. I’ll speak with them now! I’m in shock right now, and I won’t risk going there myself. You might vanish again!]
[Not until concluding this deal and delivering the bones, I promise] I closed the chat while laughing at him. Everything in my kingdom looked fine, but he was the only one who got the toll of my absence.
As he needed time to contact the three sovereigns and others, I decided to go and check over the ongoing big operations inside my capital.
Three days weren’t enough to finish the building of my capital. But at least the foundations were all laid and buildings started to grow slightly taller off the ground.
From the sky, the sight looked really great! Isac did a great job in planning this capital well, even better than the grand city built in the second Earth world..
However, just before I’d move my chariot towards my capital, a message came that stopped me from moving.
[You damn bastard! You did a deal with the petal impact! And also that damn race! Then you vanished! Vanished for two months! Damn you, Hye! Damn you!]
F*ck! It was the green nymph lady. I totally forgot about her!
Two months! I didn’t get back to her for two months. What did that mean? It means she kept gathering up things for me during this time.
Damn! Just thinking about the size of forces she gathered, the races, humans, the soulers… Damn! Just thinking about these made my scalp numb!
[Sorry, I got lost in training] I honestly said, [Are you still collecting races, humans, and soulers?]
[Sure! But first, tell me why you went to deal with other people?]
[You ask? Don’t you know why?] If she dared to act this shamelessly, then I wouldn’t flinch from exposing all the cards on the table, [I know about the real value of my bones. You… You got my bones with such low price and sold them in such high return]
[That’s… How trading world is all about]
[As the sole provider, I have to secure my interests as well. So I looked for others and will lower the deals between the two of us from now on]
As she didn’t even show any regret about hiding such info from me, I had to punish her at once. I depended entirely on her impact for my past period here.
But that will change from now on.
[Is this going to be our last deal then?]
[Not to such extent] I shrugged, [Also if you become sincere, I might consider increasing orders from your impact]
[What about your kingdom heart?]
[I already secured three!]
[Damn! That race… Then the rumours I heard were right! You caused a big ruckus and almost got them to raise weapons at each others’ faces!]
[I just got an offer I can’t refuse] I didn’t delve into any detail regarding my dealings with the Toranks race, [Now, how much do I owe you?]
[Hold on for an hour or so. I have to check again]
[Take your time]
I knew she wasn’t going to check on the things she already gathered for me. She was going to contact her higher ups, and try to amass much more to gain better this time.
After all, she got it from my words. This was going to be the last big deal between the two of us.
I would still ask for things from them, but not that much, not like before anyway.
At least soulers would be provided by them for now. Until I found another replacement elsewhere or the subsidiary petal impact responsible for dealing with warriors would provide them.
She would take an hour or more to return back to me. And Silverlining would take roughly the same.
I went directly to my capital, and started checking things there.
The first place I went towards was the training grounds. The place there didn’t look any much different than before.
Just the size of teams working over the bigger pools of salty waters increased by almost double. As for the far away ships, they tripled, with the far away ships number doubled again.
Great! My forces were making progress. But… Was it enough?
The upcoming fight would be brutal without doubt. I knew the ones in the ships would become generals, the ones fighting in the bigger trenches would be the squad leaders, and the rest would be the mere soldiers.
Yet their advancement speed wasn’t enough. If just the second Earth got monsters there, I’d have taken all of them to that world to get benefits from the time difference.
However there was another way to get them stronger; the cultivation potions.
I turned my eyes towards the place where Lily was working. Many days passed since she got the recipe and got the people she needed.
I could see lots of altars being built there, lots of people working diligently without rest. But so far, she didn’t even send me a single message about the progress she made.
Did she fail? Was all this time not enough for her to produce a single potion group at least? Was it this hard to do so?
I went there while burdened with all these worries. However just as I approached, I saw a dragon girl rider rushing towards my direction from that place.
“Lord, you are finally here,” just from the look on her face I could tell she was looking for me for a long time already.
“Whassup?” I casually asked while she didn’t drop the look on her face as she responded:
“The lady, Lady Lily, said that she got what you wanted ready.”
