We've been waiting for fifteen minutes. Before finally... The Knight arrived. They all bowed down to us and then introduce themselves once again...
"We're sorry to keep you waiting Sir. Please follow us to the Castle"
With that, we agree to follow them... We drop our guard and then we just follow them. I didn't bother bringing my Gyzus there... And then, I look at David to ask for something.
"Psst. David. I didn't see Ivan in there. Where is he? He's the Commander of the Knight right?"
"Yes Captain. Sire Ivan is the Commander of the Knight... But also... He's a Sire after all..."
"... Really? He's a Sire? Wow... I didn't know about that. How is he so nice to us then? If he's supposed to be the king, why do he act like that?"
"It's because Sire Ivan is like that Captain. He loves his citizen. So he acts nice to them and even become the Commander of the Knight. He's a great strategist but also a strong fighter."
I see... No wonder then. He really are a Royalty then. I just thought of that look as nobles. But he truly are a Royalty... If David and Yuri trust him that much, then I will trust him for this matter...
I hope that he wouldn't act like the King of Alkem. Anyway. I look at Mashura and she nodded. She heard about what we talk and then she figures out what we need to do later when we meet Ivan... It seems like we just need to be frank and if things goes south. We can use our power to threatened his country...
Anyway... We need to wait for it then. We continue our walk to the Castle on the other side of the Coast... It's a beautiful Castle compared to the Alkem Castle. It's well kept. There's a lot of beautiful flowers and other flora stuff... And there's a big pond for a really exotic fish.
Hmmm. This is the type of castle that everyone wish they have. It's beautiful as heck. I dig it, but not as much as my own Castle of course...
We were guided straight to the Throne room. Which there's a lot of guard readied to attack if something happen. Well, that's fine. David and Yuri kneeled down in front of Ivan who sat on the throne. While Mashura and I just stand up tall with pride...
"Welcome. We meet again. Thank you for saving my country just then."
"No problem Sire Ivan."
"Well then, I'm going to cut this talk short Sir Alfredo. Because I know that you hate wasting time, according to... Mister David and Miss Yuri over there... And so, I will offer you anything that you wanted. Tell me what you want and I shall give it to you, Sir Alfredo."
Hmmm... I look at David and Yuri and they nodded toward me... Good job, David, Yuri... You've done a really good job talking about my intention... I look at Ivan and then just stretch my body lightly...
"Well, Sire Ivan. Are you familiar with the Ancient Legacy of Rhea?"
"Oh! Yes! I'm pretty familiar with that name... It's an island quite far from Oubon. But not too far of Oubon. When compared to other country."
"Exactly... You see... I'm going to be frank to you Sire Ivan. The Ancient Legacy of Rhea... I'm the one who legally inherited the Entire Island of Rhea... Chosen, by the Island itself..."
The moment I said that, the entire room just get shock... They didn't know what to make out of it... But of course, Ivan believe my story instantly... He just look at me and then said.
"I see. That explain all of the equipment that you've shown us today then..."
I just look at him seriously once again and then take a deep breath... I've speak the main piece... So, let's take it slow and as peaceful as I can... Sure, Mashura has her Phantom Menace to take out everyone in here if they started to get dangerous and show some aggression toward us...
And I also can blow everything away by exploding the stuff around me...
Anyway... The talk with Ivan went really well.
Basically, he believe the fact that I'm the Rhea Island owner and acknowledge the fact that, that island is for me and mine to command...
With that acknowledgement... The Rhea Island and The Oubon Kingdom, started a diplomatic relationship.. It's pretty simple. Because of their Land is still full of stuff... Ivan give us permission to use the resources that we found there. And of course, we agree to split Sixty Percent to Forty Percent. With Forty percent go to us and the rest go to him. It's a good trade to be honest. Because all of the stuff I get for free is going to be worth it. It will take years for the resource to get absolutely devoured by us...
And when that happened, I will have enough resources to start anything I want in the Sea... Especially that Oil thing that I think about...
Anyway, Oubon Kingdom also provided us with all the troops that we asked for. But with the p*****t of me making their equipment. Of course, with their resources... So inevitably, I receive Seventy Percent of the Resources on that island.
Because even though they have Sixty Percent that they hold, half of it will go back to me to make their equipment. Of course, I don't plan on you know... Being a corrupt leader. I will give them what they wanted and of course, the Power will be the one they pay with Money...
So essentially, We got the biggest win in our lives...
We go back to Rhea Absolut and then Mashura and I sit on the Side of Rhea Absolut...
"Hey Alfredo. You saw Ivan face then?"
"Yeah... His face told me that he's going to use our help to make his army bigger. Which is I'm fine for... Because little do he know..."
"In term of Resource Management. We're better than him. All of the Nature given to Oubon, will be ours, Forty percent of it."
Mashura and I agree on that specific matter... Ivan thought that he got to use my knowledge for free. But no... No. It's never free with us...
We scam your thought process to thinking that we're doing it for free. While in fact, You're going to pay for it in the least, expected way you possibly can think of~
