Episode 533 Proposal (1)
Just as Ray had told Gregory, he requested Selena the Great Mage of the Baybon Kingdom.
Even before the banquet was held, and with plenty of time, she agreed to the saint’s request.
“What the hell is going on? You don’t need to talk to me.”
The kingdom of Celia will move just by the saint making up his mind and uttering a few words.
Only one person has enough influence to threaten the throne.
Of course, the saint she had seen herself was not so selfish as to act like that.
I’m about to leave with a robe on.
I could hear the conversation of the maids passing by the door.
“It was a big deal the other day because I couldn’t dress properly.”
“Wearing is a matter of attitude. What kind of man would like it if I wore a piece of leather?”
ha ha ha ha
The maids’ laughter sounded like they were laughing at themselves.
She looked down at her own attire.
It wasn’t shabby, but the thick blue robe and the leather armor draped under it caught my eye.
‘Attire is a matter of attitude.’
A word from the maid lingered in my ears.
Surely that’s right.
She had only worn a robe so far, so she didn’t know much about the clothes, but her last remaining woman’s heart screamed that she shouldn’t go out like this.
Even at banquets, she wore a robe instead of a dress, so she said it all.
Eventually, her steps, which were about to head outside, turned around again.

Ray was genuinely taken aback.
I suddenly asked for an interview, but I didn’t know that she was dissatisfied.
Selena in front of me was in the shape of a devil who had climbed up from hell.
She was wearing chain armor she didn’t know where she got it from and came with a pretty dress laced at the bottom.
Even if he hadn’t come with chain leggings on his legs, the blue shoes would have been quite acceptable.
Ray, who was looking at her with his mouth open, asked insinuatingly.
“Are you dissatisfied with me?”
Selena, who couldn’t hold back a laugh to see if she liked it even after decorating it herself, answered.
“I decorated a little today.”
you made it up
I can’t imagine expressing that I decorated the current clothes.
“It sounds gorgeous.”
Let’s praise the circumference.
Now that I’ve called someone, I have to say something, but it’s burdensome to keep their eyes on me.
Even when he instructed the goblins to choose their armor, none of the goblins chose that way.
I thought that that would be enough to withstand the sword master’s mortal blow.
As if his throat was burning, Ray drank the tea.
“I called today to make a proposal to Baybon Kingdom.”
“What if it was a proposal?”
He touched the wooden box Ray had prepared while watching her ask with an innocent expression while wearing armor that would allow him to face off against an ogre.
When
the lid opened with a small creaking sound, a highly advanced magic circle appeared.
Although she reached the 6th circle, she couldn’t figure out what kind of magic was being used.
No, in the first place, it is highly doubtful that such a bizarre-looking pattern is a magic circle.
“Is this… a magic tool? The air currents of mana were mixed up in a mess.”
“that’s right. Would you like to try some magic?”
Why are you asking me to use magic?
Selena was puzzled by the sudden alumni response and lightly gestured.
“Light.”
At the same time as the flow of mana, mana leaked out through her fingertips.
Self-
“This is this?”
The mana that was trying to transform into magic was scattered at once and was slowly absorbed into the air current.
As if the magic had stopped half way.
Can you cause this phenomenon with magic tools?
“It took quite a while to make.”
It’s a lie.
It was a scribble-level magic circle that was roughly carved out of a tree while sleeping.
As proof of that, the magic tool in front of me was a waste product that could not be blocked unless it was 1st circle magic.
Perhaps even a little more intense mana push would make it go bad in no time.
Selena, thinking that the saint could not lie to her, just kept her mouth shut and expressed surprise.
“All magic… with just this little magic tool…”
“Exactly.”
He spits out lies without even spitting in his mouth.
“Great. If I can enchant the swords of the knights, a great demonic sword will be born.”
When I looked at myself as if asking if enchantment was possible, I nodded my head without even thinking about it.
“Of course it is possible.”
It will depend on the sword though.
Selena took a sip of her tea.
Looking at the firm eyes, it seems that he has desperately realized the true power of the magic tool.
“If you enchant a sword, it will become a demonic sword, and if you enchant a building, it will become a fortress.”
If you’re a magician, you can’t help but be tempted.
Selena put her fist to her mouth and thought seriously.
If it wasn’t for the eccentric outfit, the aspect of the archmage would have been slightly visible.
“As you may know, the Baybon Kingdom is a kingdom well versed in magic. If you don’t trade after seeing a magic tool like this, you’ll be dishonoring its name.”
“I knew it would come out like that.”
Let’s sit down and listen to the story.
“To put it bluntly, what I want is the military and intelligence power of the Baybon Kingdom.”
“You mean powerless?”
“It would be better to ask for cooperation in the event of an unwanted armed conflict.”
“Mmm.”
It wasn’t that he would use Baybon’s forces at will, but if it was a request for cooperation, it was a fairly light request.
“It is not difficult.”
“Next, it’s about information. I wish I could read all of Baybon’s information about the Black Room and the Alliance.”
At the words that followed, Selena’s expression hardened just like Gregory.
access to all information.
As some top-secret information flashed through her mind, she was a little worried.
‘This is a saint. I don’t think you’re going to decorate anything with the information you’ve dug up about this kingdom.’
Besides, if he wanted to, he could press Baybon with his own force.
As such, the fact that it came out in the form of a ‘transaction’ must not have a bad meaning.
Thinking so, Selena nodded quite easily.
“It’s not a bad condition for Baybon. But making a deal on my own is a clear overkill. I want to go through the proper procedure.”
“I was thinking of going to Baybon after visiting Kleiman Kingdom.”
“…Kleiman Kingdom?”
Her armies wriggled lightly.
Ray, seeing him and feeling that he had bitten the bait, slowly gave him a taste.
“Did you not know? This magic tool is quite difficult to make. Mass production is impossible to the extent that it can be deployed in a few kingdoms.”
I guess so.
In Selena’s eyes, the magic tool in front of her could only be made by a skilled artisan with a high level of magical knowledge who had devoted many years of devotion.
no.
It is a magic tool that nullifies all magic.
It would be impossible for a craftsman who knows how to handle a tree or a little to make such a magic tool that would only appear in a legend, no matter how much magic knowledge he has.
she said in a worried voice.
“That means….”
“In the end, only one kingdom can be traded.”
“Oh, how could that be…”
“I can’t help it either. It’s not that magic tools that nullify magic come out wherever you dig. To be honest, handing it over to another country is a pretty tough decision.”
When the bite started to come, Ray, who was excited, spewed out lies like he was very excited.
However, from what Selena heard, it was persuasive enough to make him feel sorry for having to hand over such a magic tool to another country.
“I see, that’s right… It’s enough to attach a magic tool like this as a trade condition, so you have to pay a fair price. But it’s a little hard. To think that we have to put aside the Kleiman Kingdom and any other kingdoms that may come.”
I tried whining to try to negotiate, but to no avail.
Ray rubbed his ear and said.
“Then you should look elsewhere.”
In the first place, Selena is already caught fish.
There was nothing more to pull here.
When I saw the magic tool, I completely fell in love with it.
The ulterior motive of trying to bargain a little has been exposed for a long time.
“Keuk… I’ll try to convince His Majesty the King.”
“I’ll be waiting for good conditions.”
As long as other countries are also participating in the auction, the stakes will continue to rise.
In addition, as long as he knew the supernatural ability of the magical tool he had shown, he would not want to hand it over to other countries.
If that happens, the national power of other countries will increase significantly, so they will struggle to obtain it by any means.
‘Heh heh. It wouldn’t be bad to build a house like a picture at this time and live happily.’
He must have received the land from the king of Celia.
There must have been funds left with Hafman.
In addition, I will use the magic tool as a hostage and use famous kingdoms like sticks.
Wouldn’t now be the right time to buy my own house?
Unlike Selena, who was in tears, Ray smiled heartily.

In the evening, the royal palace is armed with beautiful scarlet lanterns and prepares for the banquet.
A three-day banquet.
Among them, the second night is important enough to be called the main one.
While the attendants were busily moving, the nobles also became busy.
“It looks like the saint made a big offer to Baybon and the Kleiman Kingdom. However, our kingdom has not heard of such a thing.”
“If you can catch the saint’s eyes, it is certain that the kingdom will also receive offers. Tonight is your chance.”
great offer.
Without knowing what it was, the nobles were eager to get in the eyes of the saint.
To that end, the nobles hastily prepared ‘gifts’ and ‘hospitality’.
There were many people gathered in Silia’s castle that would keep them full even if they stayed still.
That’s why Ray deliberately spread rumors.
“I don’t even have to go looking for it myself. The more information about the Black Room, the better.”
Roughly speaking, if you offer negotiations to a few huge kingdoms and spread rumors, small and medium-sized kingdoms will gather.
Perhaps you will be the main character at the banquet tonight.
