The Knight's Journey to the Empire

Of course, nothing is absolute and no one is perfect.

Therefore, if Sauron and his men really tempted them with huge profits, perhaps they could really tempt a few people with weak minds.

But there are only a few of them, and their role in weakening the power of Prince Mercristin is insignificant, but it is better than nothing.

Therefore, Sauron and his men would naturally not choose to waste their efforts.

"Merchristine, I'll give you another 2,000 subjects, a total of 10,000! As for the island, you can only choose the fourth largest [Arina Island]. The other conditions remain unchanged!"

"If you still don't agree, then forget it! We don't need to talk anymore! Let's just say goodbye!"

Countess Katis said in a rather malicious tone, "Don't threaten me with 'fighting to the end'! You've really pissed me off, so I'm going all out! I'll just choose not to fight you to the end at all costs!"

"I believe that if you, the eldest prince, are here as a token of your loyalty, the Kingdom of Essex will not kill a woman like me!"

Prince Mochristian's face suddenly became gloomy!

He frowned and stared at Countess Katis, trying to find some flaws from the changes in her expression, or find her bottom line so as to counterattack her.

But to be honest, the conditions given by Countess Katis were very close to what he had in mind, except for the smaller number of ships and supplies.

Therefore, it is not impossible for Prince Mercristian to accept it.

But human nature is greedy, so Prince Mercristian did not want to agree to it just like that.

Because he wants more!

Unfortunately, he couldn't see any flaws in Countess Katis's expression.

So he was not sure whether what the other party said was true or false.

So he wisely chose to continue testing: "No, I want the largest island [Angles Island], and for supplies, add another half percent..."

However, before Prince Mercristian could finish his words, Countess Katis interrupted him directly!

Countess Katis suddenly stood up and said firmly: "Baron Soran, let's go, no need to talk any more!"

After saying that, she took the lead and walked outside without any hesitation.

Butler Martin, who had been watching the situation develop quietly on the side, saw this and stood up and walked out.

Soran said politely: "Your Highness, I'm leaving now!"

After saying this, he followed Countess Katis and walked out without any hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Prince Mercristian was visibly stunned.

Because he was not sure whether this was a trap set by the other party, he did not dare to stop the other party rashly.

After all, once you speak out to stop someone, it means that you will be at a disadvantage in the negotiation and will have to compromise with the other party.

But as he watched Countess Katis and the other two walking away, Prince Mercristin felt more and more stressed, because he was afraid that the talks would break down!

And this is definitely not a good thing for him!

King Mercristian turned his head and glanced at Master Oliver, wanting Master Oliver to give him some advice!

But Master Oliver kept his eyes closed and did not give him any hints or communicate with him.

This also made Prince Mercristian feel more stressed.

Because he could guess one thing: Master Oliver probably couldn't stand his excessive greed, so he chose to stand by and watch.

In the end, after struggling in his heart, Prince Mercristian sighed and chose to compromise!

But just as he was about to speak out to stop her, Countess Katis suddenly stopped at the door!

Upon seeing this, Prince Mercristian was secretly delighted and thought to himself: This is indeed a trap. Fortunately, I held on and did not rush to agree, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss!

So he resumed his previous smug look, ready to meet Countess Katis’s soft words!

Countess Katis said, "Merchristine, my conditions are just as I said just now. There will be absolutely no more!"

"I still have a lot of things to deal with, so when you figure it out, come and see me again!"

After saying that, Countess Katis turned around and left with Butler Mark.

Soran was behind them, nodded to the two again, and followed them!

Only Prince Mercristian was left there, at a loss and disheveled in the wind.

……

It was a long time before Prince Mercristian recovered from his shock.

But soon, he became angry and embarrassed.

He is the eldest prince of the Kingdom of Midburg, with a high status and unparalleled dignity. He has always been the one who rejected others, so how could he be rejected by others?

This is really like "a dragon trapped in shallow water is bullied by shrimps, and a tiger in the plain is bullied by dogs"!

It’s Tiangang instead!

However, Prince Mercristian was just furious and helpless!

Because he was now very clear about his situation, he really didn't dare to break up with Countess Katis directly!

After all, it was just as the other party said, his identity as the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Midburg was indeed very valuable in the Kingdom of Essex.

Therefore, if the other party turns against us and really tries to trap himself here as a token of his surrender to the Kingdom of Essex, it is possible that the Kingdom of Essex will not pursue the matter.

Prince Mercristian took another look at Master Oliver, who was still resting with his eyes closed.

In the end, all the unwillingness and resentment can only turn into a silent sigh!

As time goes by, people leave and the tea becomes cold, nothing could be more wrong than this!
