Chapter 987 - Goddess’ Protectorate (1/2)
The next day.
Bringing Baluto and Fansiss along, Shalun arrived at Ye Cang’s room early in the morning. Shacily Muse glanced at him. On the night before, Shalun had already noticed this bodyguard working for Ye Cang. She definitely has the most beautiful features my eyes have ever come across. Besides, I heard Baluto say that this lady is super strong. “Please report to Commander-in-chief PaleSnow that I have important matters to discuss with him.”
Shacily Muse nodded and opened the door. Ye Cang who was experimenting a new recipe in the other game quickly switched back after receiving the notice. He looked at the three of them, “Your Majesty Shalun, what brings you here this early?”
Shacily Muse entered the room as well, closed the door and stood guard behind them.
“I wonder if Commander-in-chief PaleSnow is interested in the Great Wasteland?” Shalun tested him out.
“Go on…” Ye Cang raised his eyebrow.
“Iskafanda is willing to surrender to the Goddess Association and be a protectorate of the association. We will focus our beliefs on the six goddesses and abandon the religion of Goddess Shacina…”
“Let me think. Lil’Sha, ask Old Mak to come over.” Ye Cang did not give him a reply in an instance as he was not familiar with the matters in Iskafanda.
Shacily Muse turned into a flash of light and informed Makarlo. Moments later, Makarlo walked out from the plant in Ye Cang’s room. “President, what’s the matter?”
Makarlo pondered after realizing the situation. This is beneficial to us and Iskafanda can continue to remain its status as a city. However, he was confused, “What’s wrong with the religion of Shacina?”
He got hold of some information about Shacina. She was well-known for her cruelty, cunningness , heartlessness and thievery. She was the god that protected businessmen, traders, adventurers and thieves. It was a large religion that arose after the fall of Goddesses of War, once having numerous battles with the Black Peak Mountain which was at that time guarded by the Three Sisters of Nature. I bet she has something to do with the incident of putting the three Goddesses of Nature to sleep. Even though the Black Peak Mountain had to surrender to their defeat at the end of the day, Iskafanda’s journey to the south was prevented by the Planetary Empire. Due to the fact that the Planetary Empire had to face two enemies – the Steel Empire and Iskafanda, it had no choice but to sign the treaty to stop the war and abandon Black Peak Mountain. The Valley of Glory was then being conquered by the sand worms and the Great Wasteland was in a recovery state. The Black Peak Mountain, in the end, had turned into the barrier of two nations, the Six Big Forces and the Great Wasteland. Only then, Shacina religion started to go down the hill and the royal family reclaimed its rights.
“A bunch of repeated betrayers. They have joined the Natural Disaster…” Baluto was pissed.
Makarlo gave it a thought and nodded at Ye Cang, “I may agree to the suggestion but president, you may want to consider again…”
“Alright.” Ye Cang crossed his arm and put on his thinking cap. Not even a second later, he clapped his hands and reached out to Shalun for a handshake with a smile, “I welcome you to Goddess Association… Iskafanda will be the protectorate of the Goddess Association, President Shalun. Welcome, the two of you, Elder Baluto and Elder Fansiss.”
That’s fast! Did he actually think about it? Makarlo and the rest were shocked.
Shalun was also stunned and quickly grabbed his hand, “No worries, President PaleSnow.”
“About the floating ship…” Shalun tested the water again since that problem was his utmost concern.
“Oh, the shrine is prepared with professionals for this. My daughter, Ye Tian who is also the treasurer will come and liaise with you. Be rest assured… The Goddess Association will not mistreat you and your citizens…” Shalun heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Ye Cang’s smile. Makarlo and Shacily Muse who were beside him gasped. Too naive. He is really too naive. Oh young fella, you don’t even know what’s behind the smile…
