Chapter 438: Negotiation (1/2)
After getting shut up by both Kai and Sofia relentlessly, Roselyn ended up falling silent for the rest of the day.
Kai, on the other hand, had another interest in the Engineering Department since he wanted to see what kind of exoskeleton they could produce at this point.
Although he himself didn't have the need to add another exoskeleton to help him fight, considering his sword was the sharpest sword in the world, he still wanted to see the creativity of the people in the Union.
After all, there might be one or two that were beyond his imagination as he ended up using it. Of course, he would negotiate with them to get the right for the exoskeleton.
In his room, Kai asked Sofia. ”Do you know a place to buy the exoskeleton?”
”Well, there is no buying option, but I think you can ask someone to invent one for you or ask for the right to wear it.” Sofia nodded. ”Do you want to buy something?”
”Yep,” Kai admitted that he wanted to buy it, but it might not be for him.
”I can lead you to that place. Do you want to go now or unpack your luggage first?”
”Let's go there immediately,” answered Kai without hesitation. He didn't want to waste the opportunity and took everything he could within these three months.
”Before that, I want to ask you one question.”
”Sure. Ask anything.”
”Where do you want to go? Don't worry about this woman. She will probably tag along because of the mission. And if it's dangerous, my grandfather may end up following you. Probably one more guy from the Union, who is most likely Arnaud.”
”Do you know anything about Akkadian Language?”
”Akkadian? I think I have heard it before.” She looked down, falling into deep thought.
Suddenly, Roselyn recognized it and asked, ”Is it Akkadian Empire?”
”Yes.” Kai nodded. ”I'm going to search all the Akkadian Empire's territory.”
Roselyn quickly searched it up on the internet. ”It was the first ancient empire, uniting Akkadian and Sumerian speakers. Their territory is too large for us to search, so it will take months even with one thousand people. And with so many beasts in that territory, it will become even harder to search for anything.”
Roselyn didn't agree with this idea because it was far too dangerous.
On the contrary, Sofia only hummed and nodded her head. ”Alright. When do you want to visit that territory?”
”I am not sure.” Kai shook his head. ”I'm still thinking about the opportunity.”
”Are you crazy?” Roselyn grabbed Sofia's shoulders and shook her. ”This is madness. No. This is suicide. You can't expect us to agree with this, right? I'm not going to have my target of protection just go to this place.”
Listening to her words, Sofia shrugged and said, ”You just need to protect him then. It's not like there is an S Rank Magical Beast or something in that area, so there shouldn't be a problem.”
”Are you listening to me? There are still hundreds of thousands of beasts if not millions. This is a suicide mission.”
Kai sighed and stopped Roselyn by grabbing her shoulder before opening his mouth. ”That's it, Sofia. We will go after my period here ends. With this, they won't have the right to stop me again. Just think of me as a suicidal person.”
”What are you saying?” Roselyn gritted her teeth. ”Do you think you can go away just like that? There's no way that the Union will give you permission to do something like that. They will do anything to stop you.”
”Then what? They will stop me and use that information to go there by themselves?” Kai made a mocking smile since he had no doubt it would go to that road at some point.
Roselyn fell silent because she knew that the moment she reported this, many people in the Union would seize this opportunity to go there. Of course, the military would also focus on expanding in that direction to see what kind of important thing Kai wanted to find.
Unfortunately, Kai dropped another bomb that made it impossible for them to get something buried underneath that land.
