Chapter 746: Negotiation

~8 min read 1,528 words

The breeze blew the willow trees, and a few sparrows chirped endlessly on the branches. The morning sun awakened a village near Fuyuki City.

A few high school girls wearing Japanese-style school uniforms walked on the cement road by the field. They were chatting and laughing, mainly talking about trivial matters or interesting things in life. The few female students let out light laughter from time to time, looking youthful and energetic.

"Ha~ so sleepy."

A teenager wearing a suit walked on the road while yawning. The teenager had shoulder-length black hair, red eyeballs, and slightly dark circles under his eyes. He should have stayed up all night last night.

The black-haired teenager was named Waver Velvet, a mage, and the Conqueror King's Master.

A few female students passed by Waver. Waver not only glanced sideways, although he was a mage, he was only a 19-year-old young man after all. Moreover, because he had been studying magic for a long time, he rarely came into contact with strange women.

"Hey, peeking is not what a man should do. If you like it, say it boldly."

The Conqueror King's big hand patted Waver's shoulder. How could Waver's small plastic physique withstand such a powerful pat? His face twitched, and his brain, which was a bit muddled, immediately cleared up.

"I'm going to fall apart."

Waver spoke weakly. At this moment, the Conqueror King suddenly shouted: "The few over there, this kid..."

"Hey, hey, hey."

Waver hurriedly pulled the Conqueror King. He had already guessed what the other party wanted to shout.

The Conqueror King was pulled, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Why, kid, you don't even dare to express your inner thoughts. This cannot be a Master recognized by me."

"This has nothing to do with expressing inner thoughts. This is a powerless act. Also, don't pat my shoulder, it hurts."

Waver rubbed his shoulder and walked to a two-story house while talking with the Conqueror King.

"I don't know if there is breakfast to eat, I'm starving."

Waver just wanted to push open the house's door, but the Conqueror King suddenly grabbed his hand and jumped backward.

"What are you doing?"

Waver was startled.

"I have a bad premonition. This feeling is..."

The Conqueror King sensed the surroundings for a moment, and his eyes suddenly widened.

"Kid, prepare for battle. If I didn't sense wrong, Berserker has found the door."

"Berserker?!"

Waver retreated a few steps. That house where he had lived for a few days now seemed to turn into a flood beast.

"You didn't sense wrong, right? Berserker is the Heroic Spirit who used a blade last night?"

"Correct, it's him."

"Are you kidding me!"

Waver's heartbeat accelerated. The scene from last night was still vivid in his mind. Suddenly, Waver remembered one thing, which made his pupils tighten to the extreme.

"Those two old people are still inside..."

Waver wanted to rush into the house. Although those two old people in the house had no blood relationship with him, in the past few days, those two old people had been taking good care of him.

"Don't be impulsive. Rushing in now has no meaning. If Berserker wanted to make a move, that old couple would have already..."

"Damn it."

Waver stepped on the ground under his feet, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter...

Small white frogs jumped down from the roof of the house, surrounding Waver and the Conqueror King.

"These are familiars? No, there is no magical power fluctuation."

Waver didn't recognize what species the small white frogs were. The Conqueror King didn't recognize them either, but he felt danger.

"If I were you, I wouldn't choose to act rashly."

A male voice came. The voice came from the roof of the house. Waver and the Conqueror King looked up at the same time.

At this time, Su Xiao was sitting cross-legged on the roof, Checking Zhan Long Shan placed flat on his legs.

"Berserker."

Magical power surged on the Conqueror King. His attire changed from casual clothes to battle clothes, and he drew the wide-bladed long sword from his waist.

"Give up, Conqueror King. You didn't discover me before, which means you have already lost."

Su Xiao held Checking Zhan Long Shan and looked at the Conqueror King.

"Kid, sorry."

The Conqueror King turned his head to look at Waver, which made Waver a bit confused.

"Sorry for what?"

"Nothing..."

The Conqueror King blocked in front of Waver. It was his negligence that caused this situation.

The distance between Waver and Su Xiao was really too close. At this distance, if Su Xiao and the Conqueror King clashed, the first to die would definitely be Waver.

Even if Waver was lucky enough not to die, the alchemy bombs around and Bubu Wang hiding in the dark could also take his life.

The Conqueror King thought of this, so he showed an apology to Waver.

"Conqueror King, I am very curious, how long can you persist without the magical power supply of a Master? 20 minutes? Or 1 hour?"

Su Xiao stood up, and Checking Zhan Long Shan slowly left the sheath.

With a click, the tiles under Su Xiao's feet shattered inch by inch.

The Conqueror King in front of the house raised his long sword. He was already prepared to use "Ionioi Hetairoi". Once Waver died, the magical power supply would be cut off. At that time, wanting to use Ionioi Hetairoi again would be almost impossible.

"You didn't make a move before. This shows you have another purpose."

The Conqueror King's personality looked a bit like a blockhead, but that was not the case.

"Of course, I have already wasted three hours here, and continuing to waste time fighting you, so..."

"So you are here to negotiate?"

"Correct."

Hearing Su Xiao's reply, the Conqueror King secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If they clashed now, his Master would definitely die. At that time, even if he could defeat Su Xiao, it would have no meaning. Moreover, he couldn't guarantee he could definitely defeat Su Xiao.

Su Xiao was in a similar situation. Even if he could kill Waver, causing the Conqueror King to dissipate due to insufficient magical power supply, he couldn't obtain any benefits either.

Su Xiao had an understanding of the Conqueror King's Ionioi Hetairoi through the anime. Under that kind of human sea tactic, wanting to kill the Conqueror King in a short time was simply impossible.

Su Xiao didn't fear human sea tactics. With his talent ability awakened, human sea tactics would only allow him to recover a large amount of Mana and Health. Until he was exhausted, he wouldn't fall down.

Su Xiao didn't have the idea of having a big battle with the Conqueror King. Wanting to kill through Ionioi Hetairoi couldn't be done in a moment. The time left for the hidden quest was not much, and there were two old schemers left to deal with.

For this kind of battle that had no benefits after making a move, Su Xiao chose not to fight.

"I only have one request, which is to use all three Command Spells on your side."

Su Xiao's words stunned the Conqueror King.

"This will allow my Master to leave safely? Just simply use up three Command Spells?"

The Conqueror King obviously didn't believe it. After all, Su Xiao had the advantage now.

Su Xiao didn't answer the Conqueror King's words, but looked at Waver Velvet.

"Conqueror King's Master, as a Master, you only know how to hide behind a Heroic Spirit when negotiating?"

Waver Velvet hesitated for a moment and chose to stand side-by-side with the Conqueror King.

"Since it's a negotiation, then you also have to take out chips..."

Before Waver could finish speaking, the Conqueror King gave him a slap on the back. "Queen" Waver was slapped until he staggered.

"What are you doing!"

"Queen" Waver's face twitched in pain.

"Chips? The chips are your little life."

Su Xiao's aura was released. The violent aura generated by killing who knows how many people surged toward Waver Velvet.

"If I want to kill you now, you won't live for a minute."

Su Xiao stared at Waver with murderous intent. Cold sweat gradually seeped out of Waver's cheeks. The bright sunshine shone on him, but he only felt cold to the bone. His instincts were warning him: run, run away from here.

"Berserker, intimidating my Master in front of me, do you take me for air."

The Conqueror King patted Waver's shoulder. Waver's body trembled, and his trembling legs stopped.

"I don't want to talk too much nonsense. If you agree to my conditions, I will leave immediately. If you don't agree, then let's have a fight."

Su Xiao stepped on the ground under his feet. Qing Gang Ying energy spread on the roof. With a crack, broken tiles flew everywhere, exceptionally domineering.
