Volume 48 Chapter 4 (2/2)

“They have no interest in the remote south'

”Then there will be an expedition into the desert”

“Those guys will coain…”

“Even then, ill stop it somehow Next time, we have to respondlords couldn't co for salvation without wanting to go out

The knights of steel that douys They had another baby”

Myul was busy taking care of the griffons at Node Krape

The young griffons were hungry so he put large pieces of cut beef into their beaks

“Eat a lot Don't stay cute like this”

The nuriffons was reduced a lot due to Weed's raid and the war in the north

It was difficult to regain 5,000 again so the young griffons would be the strength of the griffon corps in the future

”Huhuhu You will completely control the skies of the continent Once the sky is ours, the ground will co picture”

While Myul was s

Aon a wyvern towards Node Krape!

”Don’t tell me…”

Myul confirmed the wyvern from the top of the tower

”Isn't that wyvern Wy-3?”

The wyvern who carried Weed around all the time

There was no wyvern ? It is likely he didn't coe forces will coency call to the griffons and his ar and the face of the user on Wy-3

'That isn't Weed?'

Weed's face was so norot it after a while

The user on Wy-3 was fairly different froht be a trick'

However, Myul didn't lost his confidence

From the early days in the Hermes Guild, he had led a nuh pride and didn't think he would be easily defeated by Weed in a one-on-one battle

Node Krape was a fortress built on a cliff

It wasn't a fortress that would easily fall even if a war occurred

‘I can fight But I don't think Weed would change his face and coestured at theand guided the visitor to the griffon nest at Node Krape

Myul welco frohtened his shoulders and introduced hie unit”

”Toadstool Porridge unit?”

”Yes Weed-nim sent me here”

”I see”

Myul was disappointed despite expecting that the other person wasn't Weed

'Too bad If he had been alone then I would have killed hih it was cowardly, it would be worth it for the fa Weed But he was interested in what the Grass Porridge Cult had to say

If it was so trivial then they wouldn't have sent a Toadstool Porridge member on Wy-3

“What do you want to say?”

”Huhu I have a good offer for you”

The user called Tokkung grinned

“I will ohts of beco independent from the Haven E explained the Grass Porridge Cult's proposal

The Myul-controlled areas of Gradian and Nest would becon of the Haven Ee Cult would use their influence and stop the desert warriors fro

“If the relationshi+p ie trading teadom will visit by sea”

“So the desert warriors won't make peace with the empire? That is the proposal?”

“Of course The desert warriors will be active in other areas but this one will receive no daht it was ridiculous as he listened

“I still can't understand it You want et away froe to the systedododom will becoes will be created and it will be a large kingdom when joined with the southern desert area

“What about the relationshi+p between me and the Hermes Guild?”

“It is like Weed-nio to the bathroos to come out Isn't now a suitable time to come out?”

Myul was silent for a while

'The desert warriors are annoying'

It was true that the attacks fro

As part of the Hernore the lords' requests for help But the dae hadn't occurred in his territory yet so it was only an annoyance

'But going to the bathroom The situation is certainly different'

Myul had been with the Hering to tareat role in the conquest of the Central Continent

The riffon unit meant he was at the forefront of the territorial expansion every time Thanks to the repeated combat achievements, he possessed a formidable army

He was handed the Gradian and Nest areas because of the high regard for his abilities andfrom the Herdom, I won't receive any benefits'

He had to dedicate half of the taxes collected from his territory

The only reason he hadn't complained was due to his loyalty to the Hermes Guild However, if he becaer have to pay taxes in the future

He wouldn't be part of the Haven Ee area

‘It isn't a totally useless proposal It is profitable for me There is just one crucial issue'

He wanted to raise a flag apart from the Haven Empire but common sense said it wasn't possible

The military power of the Hermes Guild and the Haven Enored What if he was trampled on as soon as he declared independence?

Tokkung laughed like he read Myul's doht the eh”

“There is a crowd But even if it is only near the border of the Arpen Kingdom, ill be able to strike the nerve of the Haven E The Herh to prevent such interference It will be the worst situation for me if the Idoe from both sides simultaneously Can they afford the cost of hen taxes are lowered?”

”The Arpen Kingdoainst the Haven Empire either”

“In the worst-case situation, the Arpen Kingdom will accept Myul You can be a lord who rules over a wide land”

Myul shook his head and didn't respond

He was too busycalculations in his head

There were benefits to Tokkung's proposal but he couldn't accept due to the daes

“The reason for this proposal…”

“It will be beneficial for the Arpen Kingdo honestly replied

‘I' this offer to'

The Grass Porridge Cult had gathered a vast aence and connections

It was possible for them to propose independence to some Hermes Guild users

The elite e unit were secretly dispatched to a few lords or governors with jurisdiction over an area

Tokkung travelled on Wy-3 because the southern part of the Haven Ee unit visiting other people at the sae their h possibility of failure

'A plan that assumes failure’

In the 1st phase of the plan, the Arpen Kingdoe them

The northern users wouldn't condedom or Weed

On the other hand, the Hermes Guild would become anxious and suspicious

”Hrht about it The Arpen Kingdoain tremendous benefits fro for Weed If things go wrong then the das towards Weed!

When he thought about the events that happened to him, he couldn't accept

”I will not accept the offer”

”Yes I understand You can do that”

”Will you go back on Wy-3?”

Myul asked out of pure curiosity

The wyvern could be called a riffon and this was a chance to see Wy-3 up close

”Nope I will go back to the Arpen Kingdoo”

”You can always get so way”

Tokkung said as he pulled out soht it was a bribe or a weapon

But Tokkung took out a cup and unknoder He poured boiling water into the cup anda cup of tea after negotiations”

”Hrmm”

”Would you like some?”

”Nope I'm okay”

Myul wasn't friendly so he iht decision

“Kueeok!”

Tokkung drank the tea and collapsed

“Indeed, toadstool tea…”

<tbody></tbody>

Myul was troubled after Tokkung's death

”Independence…”

The Grass Porridge Cult’s sweet proposal

Betraying the Herreatly if he succeeded

'The Arpen Kingdoht help me It is a little bit positive'

As one of the roots, he knew several things about the Haven Ee arriffon units or hold out using Node Krape

If he endured for a nize it as a loss

In the future, he wouldn't have a strong foundation like Bardray or Weed

Even if everything rong, he could bring all his assets and the griffons to the Arpen Kingdoerous I won't accept at this tiency strategy rooe Cult planted the first seeds in the Haven E to take our lords

“Don’t leave any loopholes”

Several lords of the Haven Empire confessed that they had been contacted

Lafaye was on the roof of Aren Castle when he heard the news

There were countless stars shi+ning in the sky and a cool as blowing

The capital of the Haven E brilliantly

“I have been driven to this edge…'

Lafaye's eyes narrowed as he thought about the insults he received recently

He becairl on the street

As an elite, he lived his life receiving respect so he wasn't accustomed to the word failure

It was true that his achieve

The news coence netasn't much better

-There is a massacre of ordinary users by the Herate

-There is a request for support fro the conquest of the continent was too large

-Jolot Trade City A large-scale develop to Puhol Water Park in the north The developold 340 users per day are required until cos happened as he ruled every corner of the empire

Lafaye and the leaders consumed an astronomical amount of funds

They had to make allowances for tax cuts so the leaders cursed the trade in each city

Darius indiscriminate revelations about the Hermes Guild also inflamed him

As new facts were broadcasted, public opinion towards the Herly worse

In the south of the continent, the founding of the Pallos Eh invasion was underway
