Chapter 657 The Deal
With all the Royals settled into the Rosefinch sitting room, Queen Jasmine stood to begin the meeting.
"We are all gathered because there are things we would like to request before Patriarch Noxus returns home. If we can sort them out now, he can start preparing to cast the spells once we are back in the Kingdoms, so there's no need to be shy unless you want something that you would rather the rest of us not know you're into." She announced.
The other Royals chuckled at her insinuation. They were all centuries old, there weren't any real secrets between them anymore, at least not on that level.
King David of Nephrite stood next to the much larger Demoness and smiled at Wolfe.
"I suppose I'll start. I think it's safe to say that I'm after nearly the same thing that the others are, a defensive spell for the Palace area, along with a Mana Purification and Mana Gathering Array. We've heard wonders from our people about how well Mana Purification works on curses and magical poisons.
It just cleanses them right out of your system, and for the stealthy poisons that work over a period of time to eliminate suspicion, that is perfect. We wouldn't even need to tell anyone that it's there, we can blame the curse removal side effect on the [Kind Intentions] array. You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
Nobody but you actually knows the limits or how it works, so we have a lot of leeway on what we tell our people." He explained.
"That is a good point. Since nobody knows just what the limits are or how the spells work, there is a lot of leeway in what you tell your people. In fact, the less I tell you, the more vague you can be without lying, even though you can analyze it yourselves to find out what it can do." Wolfe agreed.
"So, now that you know the basics, most of us have a few additional requests, or suggestions for our payment, depending on which of us it is." King David informed him with a smirk.
"Oh, what did you have in mind?" Wolfe asked, wondering what the King of Nephrite might be after.
Wolfe chuckled. If that was a Succubus, she really was an odd one. She would likely fit in well with the Witches, though, they loved reading about magical theories and such.
"Any objections to this plan?" Wolfe called to her.
"I only wear clothes in public. Put that in the rules somewhere." She replied.
"Alright, no pants in private. That's easy enough."
Queen Victoria gave Wolfe a doubtful look. "I have heard that Witches are somewhat prudish, are you sure that will be a realistic scenario? Or have you set up your living quarters so that they are fully private?"
"Well, we have a separate hallway that's just for us with a higher mana density than most of the town, so it's a bit like this private wing. I can set the entry wards to be a bit more exclusive if there are some issues with nudity among the general population, but mostly nobody comes in unless they're invited."
Wolfe skipped over the part where they had all seen each other naked more than a few times anyhow, so it wouldn't be too shocking to have a nudist Demon in the mix.
"Well, that's two Demoness brides, does anyone else have a daughter, granddaughter or other relative they're intending to trade?" Wolfe asked.
Queen Jasmine raised her hand and laughed.
"Really?"
"Yes, but not the same way. I wanted to offer you a permanent bodyguard retinue. A team of personal guards fit for Royalty and trained from birth to ensure the safety of a Monarch." She explained.
"Alright, that actually sounds like something I need. It might be a bit ambitious for a Magi to think that they should be running things, but it seems to have worked out alright at home. I am just different enough from the humans and the witches that it stops the infighting between the factions over who should be in charge."
Queen Jasmine smiled. "Excellent. Then we can start on the spells and the bonding once we arrive back in my Palace tonight."
