Chapter 73 These are Lord Diding, the Lord of Thunder?! [Fourth Update]
If the North were still the same North, the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group would never have opened a branch there.
The North is barren, and the people here can't even get enough to eat. If you open a branch here, you won't get any commissions at all. Even if you do, you won't earn much money, and you might even have to pay out of your own pocket.
Vivian had the same thought yesterday before she met Princess Sophia.
No, it's not that we ever considered opening a branch in the North.
After talking with Grace and Aston last night, Vivian finally came up with the idea of cooperating with Princess Sophia to open a branch in the North.
Because she learned from Grace and Aston that Princess Sophia possessed an even more concentrated and purer life essence!
Grace and Aston were able to recover because they each drank a bottle of a more advanced life essence!
It's not a bottle the size of a thumb, it's a wine bottle!!!
In her opinion, the purity of the life essence in the thumb-sized bottle was already very high. Selling a bottle of life essence for three thousand gold coins was already a friendly price.
As it turned out, Grace and Aston told her and Xavier last night that Her Highness Sophia had given them both a free bottle of a higher purity of the Life Essence!
The two of them said that the life essence they were drinking could fetch an astronomical price if it were sold.
wrong!
In the Kingdom of Roland, they are the kind of items that are priceless and unavailable!
Sophia gave them both a free bottle of this miraculous item, and the only price was that they serve her for five years.
No one knows what she was thinking when she heard Grace and Aston say those words last night.
Envy, jealousy.
All sorts of emotions are present.
This vital essence is priceless and unavailable!
If a legendary powerhouse drinks half a bottle, not only would he serve Sophia for five years, but he could follow her for the rest of his life without any problem. Last night, she was so envious that her eyes turned red.
In order to win Sophia's favor, she talked to Grace about Sophia all night last night.
Then she gained a preliminary understanding of the prince in front of her: he was kind-hearted, but not very clear about the value of the life essence, only that it was very valuable.
To cooperate with His Highness, one must not engage in fraud or concealment, nor should one attempt to take advantage of His Highness.
The more honest you are, the better.
These are some points that Vivian summarized through her conversation with Grace.
Another point is that if the cooperation is successful, one day we will receive huge benefits from Princess Sophia.
"Don't just think about thanking Princess Sophia, you should also thank the Lord of Thunder," and it would be best to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder.
Regarding this, Vivian stated that she would indeed receive the same benefits from Princess Sophia as Aston.
What's the point of swearing allegiance to the Lord of Thunder?
To put it bluntly, if the leader of their Fairy Tale Mercenary Group drank a bottle of the life essence that Grace drinks, he would not only swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder, but he probably wouldn't even object to calling the Lord of Thunder "father."
"Right of first refusal? To open a branch in the North?"
Sophia hesitated. She was about to have her own caravan. Should she cooperate with the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group under these circumstances?
However, according to Vivian, cooperating with the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group doesn't seem to be harmful to either her or the North.
She glanced at Aston and Grace; someone whom the two of them considered a partner couldn't be too bad.
A mercenary group that dares to save the villagers in the face of a beast tide is no less impressive.
"Sure, I don't mind cooperating with the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group. Also, if the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group is going to open a branch in the North, I hope that the Fairy Tale Mercenary Group can send the members who were originally with Aston and Grace to the North."
Even if you're injured and not very combat-ready, it's okay.
Sofia smiled and agreed, but at the same time she made a request to Vivian, a request that surprised Aston...
Grace and the other woman felt a jolt in their hearts.
Could this prince before me... perhaps intend to use the Life Essence to heal the team members who suffered severe injuries during the beast tide?
After Aston and Grace recovered, they thought of their teammates and even considered asking Princess Sofia to treat them.
But they couldn't bring themselves to say it; the preciousness of the life essence was greater than the mountains of the North.
Thinking of their teammates, their eyes dimmed; few of them had survived the battle.
Besides the two of them, there are five other people still alive.
The bald, one-eyed strongman Xavier and the red-haired, golden-eyed Vivian also realized this when they heard Sophia's words.
The prince in front of me specifically named Aston and Grace's team members to come to the North, clearly intending to use the Life Essence to heal them.
"Your Highness, are you truly not at all concerned about that priceless life essence?"
"I care, because this is a drink given to me by the Lord of Thunder. Therefore... those who drink the Elixir of Life... must unconditionally swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder."
"I now swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder. Princess Sophia, may I drink a bottle of the Elixir of Life?"
Vivian asked curiously.
"Huh? No, no, there's no need for that. You're so young and not injured. There's no need for you to drink the life essence... liquid?"
"I...I...Your Highness Sophia, I wish to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder. Do you think I am qualified?"
The bald, one-eyed, burly man, Xavier, raised his left hand, grinned, and said, "I pledge allegiance to the Lord of Thunder."
Sophia's gaze fell on Aston and Grace. "Do you two think he's worthy of loyalty to the Lord of Thunder?"
Aston and Grace exchanged glances. "Does 'loyalty to the Lord of Thunder' require certain conditions?"
What trait did Princess Sophia see in these two people that she made them pledge allegiance to the Lord of Thunder?
nice guy?
Princess Sophia thought they were good people, which is why she was willing to let them swear allegiance to Lord Destin, the Lord of Thunder.
"Your Highness Xavier may look a bit fierce, but he is a good man."
Aston didn't know how Sophia judged whether someone was worthy of loyalty to Lord Distin, the Lord of Thunder; he could only say that Xavier was a good person.
"Good man, if you truly wish to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder, then I, Grace, Aston, and Dalton can all be your witnesses."
Let me state beforehand that if you commit any heinous acts while serving the Lord of Thunder, your soul will be condemned to eternal damnation.
When Xavier heard that his soul would be condemned to eternal damnation, his face turned solemn. The way Princess Sophia looked when she said those words was so strange that it made Xavier feel that if he broke his oath, his soul would really be condemned to eternal damnation.
Actually... if he had a choice, he would want to go to heaven after he dies.
"If you've made up your mind, you can swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder now."
"Without hesitation, I am willing to swear allegiance to the Lord of Thunder."
"Then take the oath."
In the presence of Sophia, Aston, Dalton, and Grace, Xavier swore allegiance to the Thunder's Lord, Destin.
Before Xavier took the oath, Aston secretly told Xavier the name of the Thunder's leader, Destin.
Vivian, standing to the side, was speechless. Without swearing allegiance to the Lord of Thunder, one was not even qualified to know the Lord of Thunder's name.
Does it have to be so mysterious?
Just as Xavier finished reciting the last line of his oath, saying that if he broke the oath, his soul would be condemned to eternal damnation.
Suddenly, a huge, cold, domineering vertical pupil flashing with bluish-purple lightning appeared in his mind.
These are... Lord Diding, the Lord of Thunder?!
