At this time, Drasel himself explained: "Dongtai, stop talking, let me do it, lest she think it was your idea. Valkyrie, I can definitely enter a certain kingdom as a mercenary army.
In this way, I will not be restricted by any king or ministers. My task is to fight for the kingdom, and the kingdom will give me money and food.
I believe that there will definitely be people who are eager to obtain the impressive combat power brought by me and my dragon, so I will just use my power as a sharp sword that can be hired to cut down whoever I catch.
In addition, I don't need the kingdom to give me any more fiefdoms. I own Uxhall and its three subordinate villages. The only thing the kingdom has to bear, or rather face, is the wrath from the Kingdom of Swadia.
The Kingdom of Swadia will definitely attack me, but as a mercenary, I will not be protected by the kingdom that hires me. It is reasonable not to send reinforcements. I defend my territory myself and have nothing to do with the kingdom.
Therefore, the kingdom has nothing to lose by hiring me. But my ultimate goal can also be achieved, which is to keep my dragon and family!
To sum up, I think there are no logical flaws, and in reality, this can indeed work.
Because the king of the Kingdom of Nord has promised to welcome me there at any time, but I would rather work with you."
Russell's words had been rehearsed many times on the way here. He had absolutely reason to believe that he would be threatened by anyone and threaten him to hand over the dragon.
So he had thought up a countermeasure early on. Except for the last sentence, which was a lie, the rest of these words came from the bottom of his heart.
And this lie can hold up to a certain extent. After all, he has a close relationship with Arthur, the brave man of the Kingdom of Nord, and it is extremely possible to have a deeper connection with the Kingdom of Nord.
Luo Nier, the queen of gambling, looked at the baron who was talking endlessly, eloquently and not panicking at all. She couldn't help but be a little stunned. Is this the same young man who usually makes jokes and has no serious appearance? The difference is really big...
For a moment, Valkyrie Tianyan was speechless. She didn't expect that Russell played the game of chess so well and had clearly arranged his retreat before he came.
After a moment of silence, Valkyrie Tianyan changed the topic and said:
"Okay, I'm a very reasonable person. Just now... I was joking with you just now. I guarantee that your dragon and family will be safe here, but I don't want to sign this kind of contract with you."
After hearing this, Russell slowly sat down again and continued to drink his second cup of coffee. At the same time, he replied: "I am also a very reasonable person. How about you tell me how you want to play with me?"
"I want you to be loyal to me."
"Be loyal to you? I think your king, your father, may not agree."
"He passed away the day before yesterday. Now I am the new king here. I forgot to tell you that this is no longer the Kujit Khanate. This place is called..."
Having said this, the Valkyrie Tianyan stood up and said forcefully and in a clear tone: "From today on, this place is called the Goddess Empire!"
"If that's the case... then I can accept it. Please tell me the conditions for my loyalty to you and the discounts you can give me."
Russell pretended to be calm on the surface, but his coffee-drinking hand became increasingly trembling, betraying him.
In this regard, Valkyrie Tianyan also knew the shock and nervousness in his heart. After all, it was the first time for a woman to become a king.
It's just that at the moment, Valkyrie Tianyan has no intention of explaining how she accomplished this great feat. The time is still long and she will share it later.
She stopped beating around the bush and said directly:
"Baron, although I find the swear words very troublesome, I need you to swear to me at the meeting tomorrow in front of all the ministers. Moreover, the content of the oath is my condition."
"Okay, I accept it. Anyway, Harlaus X of the Kingdom of Swadia also requested the same at that time, so I will just go through the process. What about my discount?"
"I will not divide your territory any more, and I know this is not what you need now. I will let you continue to be in charge of Uxhall and its three subordinate villages. At the same time, your territory will be affected by the influence from my kingdom.
shelter!
Whether we are in a truce with the Kingdom of Swadia or whether we start a war in the future, I promise you that when you are in danger in the future, there will be reinforcements to help you."
Without any hesitation, Russell nodded immediately and agreed: "It's a deal. From tomorrow on, you will be the only one. Now, I'm still free. Okay, now that the business is settled, it's time for me to go for a walk in the city."
"Go ahead, Ronnier and I still have something to discuss, so she won't accompany you." The Valkyrie Tianyan waved her hand towards the baron, and motioned for the Conqueror Ronnier to come to her side.
"No problem, thank you for the journey. I'll go out first and you guys can chat." After the baron responded, he left the lord's hall, leaving only Duodiao and Valkyrie.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. After all, the two of them had not been in contact with each other for a long time, and the Queen Ronnier had only recently returned to the kingdom.
As the elder sister, Valkyrie Tianyan bravely broke the silence at the moment and said first: "You came back alone? Where is the army? Are you all going to help that boy look after his house?"
"Well, the army and the wolves have stayed in Uxhall, but don't worry, sister, there will be no war. At this time, the Kingdom of Swadia will not attack rashly."
"This is a small matter, but it's really good that you were able to convince him to surrender. I have to admit that Drasel and his dragon's combat power cannot be underestimated."
"Well... I hope he can help you in the future, sister..." Luo Nier, the king of firecrackers, hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong? Are you worried?"
"It's nothing... I just want to say that you are really good and great! Before, before... I shouldn't have advised you to give up. You really did it. I'm happy for you."
Recalling the past, she repeatedly persuaded her sister to give up her dream of becoming a king, telling her that men and women were not equal and to accept the reality. At this moment, Luo Nier felt deeply guilty. In fact, she was the one who did not dare to pursue her dream.
How can I attack my sister who has been pursuing her dreams...
Inadvertently, tears welled up in the eyes of Ronnel. After all, she and her sister had been together for more than ten years since childhood, and their relationship was quite deep.
After experiencing so many conflicts and ups and downs, and even drawing swords against each other and fighting each other, we finally came together again.
"Sister, thank you for saying that. Let's not talk about the past. From now on, we will build the goddess empire together, and I have named you the deputy king.
When I am away, you can issue orders on my behalf with full authority. If something happens to me while I am out fighting, you will take over for me."
