Chapter 1404  Unexpected Detour With Unexpected Gain (2)

”You need the proof?” Hemlin turned toward Tang Shaoyang, ”Can you show them the body, Your Majesty? This one is quite stubborn, but he is easy to convince with proof. As long as we can prove how easy you kill those three pricks, he will join our side. Or else I am not going to waste your time to meet him, Your Majesty.”N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapterʼs release on N0v3l--B1n.

Tang Shaoyang threw the three bodies out of his inventory. One of the bodies was still frozen while maintaining the fire elemental body.

Hemlin took a cold breath as he looked at Axelʼs body who died while maintaining the fire elemental body. That just showed how strong the dragon was to freeze Axel in his domain. He was glad that he made the right decision to submit instead of fighting Tang Shaoyang.

Not just Hemlin, King Emerson also stood there, frozen in shock. He immediately recognized two of them with the cloak they wore. But he quickly figured out that the fire body belonged to Axel. Axel was the only one with a fire elemental body from the seven Gods.

Forlan maintained his composure, but his pupil dilated in shock. He wanted to cover his shock, but it was just hard to believe that the three figures who had been haunting this world were dead. He then understood why his friend submitted to The Tang Empire.

”We are going to The Temple of Light after meeting you, and then we will kill the remaining living Gods,” Hemlin went to Emersonʼs side and whispered, ”And the lady you tried to flirt with is the one who killed Axel.”

King Emersonʼs body shook for a moment as he realized that Hemlin was protecting him all this time. The threat was real, his kingdom might disappear if he continued to flirt with the lady. It was just he did not expect the auraless lady to be a dragon, a strong one that could freeze a God Rank to the death.

Tang Shaoyang stopped and turned toward King Emerson, ”What? Do you want me to do something to your kingdom?” That was a weird question to begin with because The Carlisto Kingdom was never mentioned in the talk.

ʼStupid Emerson. How can you become the King with your brain?ʼ Hemlin cursed internally. The Carlisto Kingdom was safe from the acquisition, and yet he mentioned it now when the talk was over. As if Emerson offered his kingdom to The Tang Empire.

”Let me talk with him, Your Majesty. Forlan will accompany you to the Adventurer Guild as well,” Hemlin wanted to talk with Emerson personally and scolded this stupid king to his heartʼs content.

”Thatʼs not what I mean. I want to join your empire as well. Me and my Kingdom,” No one expected that came from Emerson, not Forlan or Hemlin, ”The Carlisto Kingdom is tied with The Adventurer Guild. If the guild leaves, I donʼt think my kingdom could survive more than twenty years.”

Of course, he was not that stupid. In fact, he realized the gravity of the situation, and what it meant to lose the Adventurer Guildʼs protection. The only way for him to maintain that protection was to join the Tang Empire who was under the Tang Empire.

The Carlisto Kingdom was located in the center of the Aidan Continent. The strategic location with more resources, but the price was that The Carlisto Kingdom was surrounded by many other kingdoms, including the Beast Kingdom and The Elven Kingdom.

If they knew The Carlisto Kingdom lost the protection from the Adventurer Guild, the kingdoms around The Carlisto Kingdom might make their move to get The Carlisto Kingdomʼs territory. He might be able to protect his kingdom for a few years, but it was just a matter of time until his kingdom would be destroyed.

”Vassal. The Carlisto Kingdom can become The Tang Empireʼs vassal if you want The Tang Empireʼs protection. But you will talk to my people for that matter. I will send them to meet you. If you agree with the terms, then your kingdom will gain The Tang Empireʼs protection.”
