Chapter 255: THE AGREEMENT
Addie shook his head. "I am exaggerated my king, but it will cause some damage on us." Addie furrowed his brows. "And what will get from this kingdom aside from their princess?"
That was what Rowan and Zander would discuss in this meeting. After that night, Zander invited him for a drink in his study room. The place where they could keep things formal and without the involvement of sword or any dangerous object around them.
"Five hundred magic users and unlimited supply of magic stone," Rowan said his demand in exchange of one hundred thousand of his knights.
One hundred thousand of knights was indeed a great number compared to five hundred magic users, but Rowan had witnessed himself of what magic could do. He watched with his own eyes what kind of power a magic user held and the people in his continent had never seen magic before.
It would be a surprise for his enemy to witness it firsthand in battle if they dared to cross him.
"We don’t have five hundred magic users. I believe you know that," Zander responded calmly. He didn’t know that Zaya had asked such thing from Rowan, but he knew she only did that for their kingdom.
"And I believe you have a strong connection with people in the Andel kingdom." Rowan leaned his back. "You were the one, who instigated the attack on Holy Kingdom. I believe there are so many magic users under Andel kingdom’s control, since Holy Kingdom is only a history now."
Rowan read the situation between Ogregon and Andel really well. Yes, Zander didn’t have five hundred magic users, but it didn’t mean he couldn’t make it happened.
The other king was clever and it annoyed Zander. He couldn’t find a way to make things difficult for Rowan, since his demand was fair and Zander would get more than he would ask of him.
Zander couldn’t prevent this because he could see how Zaya slowly fell for this brute king, but then he was not able to find fault on Rowan, since he treated his sister well and even though he didn’t want to admit it, he knew.
This situation irritated him.
