Chapter 41: Deal

In the Haroldus kingdom, the territory of Baron Tell, there was a group approaching while hiding in the shadows.

It was night, so it only helped the group infiltrate the town.

This group was aiming for Baron Tell's house, and they moved very quietly and sneakily.

As they neared the house of Baron Tell, one of them was able to find the perfect spot to sneak in the house.

This group of people then went in using that route, and they immediately scanned the surroundings for people.

However, they were able to find none.

After a few minutes passed, one of them spoke.

"It looks like Shadow has successfully become Baron Tell. I feel stupid for sneaking in."

Then, as if it were practiced...

"Yeah. There's no presence at all."

"Maybe, we should have gone inside using the front gate."

"Well, we still have to be careful."

Another man was about to join in, but a rougher and lower voice stopped him.

"Enough about that. Let's got to Shadow's room."

And, no one else spat out some words as they immediately went to work.

However, they weren't sneaking or acting suspiciously like before.

They were walking proudly and slowly throughout the dark hallway.

They walked for a few minutes before reaching their destination.

The man who seems to lead them opened the door and saw a fairly lit room with a round table.

The round table had 6 chairs, and that six chairs were all occupied.

And there was also a line existing in the round table, making it easy to tell the left and right sides.

However, that doesn't matter to them as the group of people walked towards the person they were looking for.

The people inside the room only looked at them and didn't pay much attention to them.

And after a few seconds, the group of people was behind Shadow, who was acting as Baron Ted Tell.

The man who was leading the group bowed his head and brought his mouth near Baron Tell's ears.

"It seems he really is staying in Skinjur. We would have to join hands with her."

The man's eyes moved to the woman beside Baron Tell. The woman was wearing a seductive dress, and her voluptuous breasts were out in full glory.

Purple hair adorns her head, and her face looked mature too.

Her violet pupils were telling the people around her that she was a dangerous person.

Well, it was actually her aura.

But, anyway, the most special thing about her was that...she was a monster.

To be specific, she was a Suckus. It was quite obvious as the trademark of a Suckus was apparent on her body.

Her body was transparent, but that didn't last as she quickly used magic to look like a human.

Nevertheless, that didn't make her less charming.

In fact, for perverted humans, the fact that she became a 'whole' or 'existing' woman could become their source for...

Anyway, as soon as the group of people settled in behind Baron Ted Tell, the woman spoke.

"Now, then. Shall we start the talk? Gentlemen?" Her voice was charmingly sexy.

It had the power to turn any walking men's eyes to her, and it was pleasing to the ears.

If the men in the room weren't strong enough to refuse her charm, they would probably pounce on her like some hungry beasts.

"Hmm. I don't really understand why this would become an advantage to us."

The man on the other side, that seems to be the representative of the three on the left side, spoke.

He stroked his beard with an old, aged right hand. His skin was cracking, and veins could be seen on it.

"Oh, don't worry. This will be a great deal." The man on the other side of the woman spoke.

He then continued as he pointed to the other three.

"I'm sure you are having trouble with the Lion Clan, who stands above you? This plan will help you exterminate that beast."

He had quite the dangerous smile plastered on his face as he looked at Baron Tell, who was sitting on the other side of the woman.

Of course, Baron Tell was able to see that sign and continued the talk.

"We will help you in overthrowing...No; we will help you in destroying the Lion Clan thoroughly and make you..."

He pointed to the man who was sitting on the right of the representative as he continued to speak.

"...the third power in Jakart."

The man who Baron Tell pointed his finger to had a smile on his face when he heard it.

Not only that, he imagined kicking the Lion Clan out of the way and making his entrance.

Although he wouldn't be the best organization in the Jakart, people would see it that way as he entered right after Lion Clan was out.

It would make people think that he was the one who killed the best organization.

"But, then...what do you want us to do then? A Conqueror scheming things...that's too bad for your image, is it not?"

The representative said as he looked at the man on the other side of the woman.

The man was a big figure in the world and was considered as one of the Conquerors.

He was famous, and all people who are here know him.

However, what really caught the representative's eyes was that this Conqueror was below the woman.

The woman who has the violet hair.

This made the old man think. 'What is their connection?'

After all, a Conquerors being below someone else is something surprising.

However, even if the old man denies it, the fact is right in front of him.

'And this guy...' The representative moved his eyes towards Baron Tell.

He doesn't see Baron Tell as a big man, but he was forced to think otherwise due to the guys behind him.

'They are all above rank 5...'

Although rank 5 seems low, the reality is that it is actually high.

The power of a rank 5 could be said to be the best in a small country or kingdom like Haroldus.

And now, there are 6 guys who could be considered as best of a kingdom was in a single room.

This fact made the representative curious.

'What is this woman made of that she could gather these forces?'

And...his eyes moved towards the woman, and he spoke.

"Why are you trying to recruit us when you have enough forces?"

The representative said as he stroked his beard once more.

His eyes were flashing light that seems to say, one wrong answer, and we will withdraw from the deal.

"It's simple. I will crush the Lion Clan and the Suckus. It's because they have something I want. And, that's not something for you to butt into, no?"

The woman answered simply.

It's true that she wants to crush the Lion Clan. However, she doesn't have the necessary forces to do so.

The Suckus race that she has her sights on has her hands full.

That is the reason why she was trying to get these three guys who are at the top of their respective organizations and try to attack the Lion Clan.

That way, the Lion Clan wouldn't be able to send reinforcements to the Suckus while she was attacking.

"Hmm. So you're planning to attack both of them at the same time."

It was then.

The guy who was on his left side suddenly leaned on him and spoke near his ears.

He used some magic to prevent any eavesdropping from the guys present here.

"If we are the ones attacking the Lion Clan, isn't it the same even if we aren't allied with them? It's not like they'll help us or anything."

Of course, the representative also knows this fact.

The way the woman said it was like they'll let the three guys handle the Lion Clan while they were trying to attack the Suckus.

That means they were just buying time, and the fact is that the woman isn't trying to help them kill the Lion Clan.

After all, they were the ones who would stop the Lion Clan, and the ones to actually benefit in that situation is the woman.

This whole deal and this talk of being advantageous for the three of them is just bullshit made to make them agree.

However...

"It's a Conqueror." The representative said simply to the man.

The fact that the woman has a Conqueror on her side is a thing that could help change the tides.

The three of them aren't Conquerors, which was the difference between them and the Lion Clan.

And the man knows this as well, which is why he didn't force the topic anymore.

The representative turned his eyes to the woman and said.

"Alright, we'll join this deal, But! I want the proof of a Conqueror going into Jakart."

The woman wasn't the person who answered the representative, but instead, the man who was said to be a Conqueror.

He said with a smile on his face.

"You have my word!"
