Chapter 1272 Negotiations - Gathering of People

Three days later, at the temporary floating port of the Ninth Corps camp in the east of Daro City, the deputy marshal of the Ninth Corps, Leonas, led some generals to wait for the arrival of the negotiation team.

Standing on the right, Pragon watched the always serious Leonas smile from time to time, and couldn't help but think of the "story" circulating among the upper echelons of the church.

"It is rumored that Archbishop Silas' daughter Seraphina has a very close relationship with Canon Zuo's only son. If Archbishop Silas had not used the excuse that his daughter had not really grown up, Canon Zuo would have had three grandchildren."

Recalling the name of the head of the negotiation team, Pragon was basically certain that this was not a "story" but a fact.

"This water is really deep!"

After sighing inwardly, Pragon stopped daydreaming and waited for the arrival of the negotiation team.

Some things are enough to just be known, and it’s okay to associate them privately, but you must not let other people know, otherwise you will be in big trouble.

I still have a hundred years until retirement, and I don't want anything unexpected to happen in the middle of my career and for me to be sent to build a new world.

In the sky, the clouds dissipated and three kilometer-class floating warships slowly descended.

In the floating port, more than 3,000 soldiers were wearing silver armor, the silver badges on their chests flickered in the light, and every face was tense, looking straight ahead.

As soldiers of the Ninth Corps, they could not bring shame to the Marshal.

Under the gaze of many generals, three airborne ships slowly landed on the ground.

At the bow, a young woman in a white dress glanced below and paused slightly when she saw a familiar figure.

The next second, Seraphina jumped down and landed on the ground. She looked at the young man not far away with a bright smile on her face.

The moment Seraphina landed, Leonus walked forward, stood three meters away from her, bowed slightly, and said softly: "Welcome, Marshal Seraphina."

Seraphina heard the familiar voice, walked straight over, hugged Leonus, buried her head in her chest, and said: "I don't want to hear you call me Marshal, I want to hear you call me sister."

"No."

Upon hearing this, Leonas righteously refused.

"Ok."

After receiving this answer, Seraphina felt a little disappointed, but soon regained her gentle expression, let go of Leonus, stepped back a few steps, and slowly said: "Marshal Leonus, long time no see."

While the two were talking, the other fifteen members of the negotiation team came down from the airship one after another and stood behind Seraphina, the leader of the negotiation team.

When everyone was present, Leonas made a gesture of invitation and said, "Marshal Seraphina and other distinguished guests, please follow me."

Seeing this, everyone bowed slightly in response, and then followed Leonas to the headquarters of the 9th Corps.

The escort troops of the negotiation team, led by a low-level Dawn Priest of the Soul, went to the temporary camp to rest.

At this moment, in the headquarters of the Ninth Corps, Weilin was sitting in the main seat, reading an adventure story book with great interest, openly slacking off under Kyle's nose.

"My Lord, the negotiation team is coming soon."

Weilin, who was watching the exciting part, was stunned. He let go of his perception and found that Lionas was only 800 meters away from the headquarters.

He put the adventure story book on the coffee table into the space ring, then took out a book from the unprocessed documents, opened it, placed it in the center, and placed a pen on the right.

After doing all this, Weilin held his breath, adjusted his mentality, and then "concentrated" on handling official business.

Seeing this scene, Kyle's mouth twitched a little. After putting the magic book in his hand into the space equipment, he returned to his cold expression and stood quietly behind his master, acting as a guard.

In less than a moment, a guard entered the tent, knelt on one knee, and reported respectfully: "Marshal, Lord Leonus wants to see you."

"Let him in."

Weilin pretended to put down the documents in his hand, raised his head and gave instructions to the guard.

"Yes."

The guard answered respectfully, then stood up and left the tent.

Outside the tent, after getting the promise, Leonus looked at Seraphina beside him and whispered, "Don't be rude."

"kindness."

Seraphina heard what Leonus said and nodded without thinking.

The curtain was opened and a group of people entered the tent.

Seraphina took a few steps forward, came to the front of the tent, bowed and saluted, and said, "Former deputy marshal of the Sixth Corps, current head of the negotiation team, Seraphina greets Knight Yongxi, may my god protect you."

Upon seeing this, the other fourteen members of the negotiation team gave their names one after another and bowed their heads in salute to show their respect.

Weilin raised his hand to signal everyone to stand up, then pointed to the cushions on both sides of the tent and said with a smile, "Lady Seraphina, and everyone else, please take a seat."

Seeing this, everyone took their seats one by one.

Weilin watched the intimate posture of Lionas and the blonde woman with interest, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and then he turned his head and cast a questioning look at Kyle beside him.

Feeling the gaze of his master, Kyle shrugged helplessly, indicating that he didn't know either.

"Knight Leonus, I wonder if you and Lady Seraphina are…"

When Leonas heard this, he was about to answer, but Seraphina spoke first and said, "Sir Knight Yongxi, Leonas and I are engaged."

"is it?"

Hearing this answer, Weilin looked at the two of them, and finally stopped his gaze on Lionas, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

Under the gaze of his own marshal, Leonas wanted to object, but feeling the strength on his arm, he nodded silently.

Kyle saw the two men's unusual movements and reported to Weilin through [Mind Voice]: "My Lord, Lionas must have been threatened."

"This is not a threat."

"Isn't it?"

Sensing Kyle's inner doubts, Weilin patiently explained: "If you insist, you can regard this as the interest between an engaged couple."

Through [Inner Voice], Kyle replied, not quite understanding, "I understand."

On the left side of the tent, seeing that Weilin had not asked any more questions, Lionas took the initiative to speak: "Sir Knight Yongxi, do you need any instructions for this negotiation?"

After hearing this, Weilin came back to his senses, coughed lightly, and said, "The negotiation affairs will be handled by Ms. Seraphina, the head of the negotiation team. I would like to hear her opinion."

"Sir Knight Yongxi." Seraphina released Lionas' arm and said, "Although I am the head of the negotiation team, your status is higher than mine, so I am willing to hand over the responsibilities of the chief negotiator to you."

"I don't think I have the ability to negotiate, so it would be better if you, Ms. Seraphina, were in charge." Weilin shook his head and answered.

When it comes to fighting, he has a lot of experience.

But when it comes to negotiation, he has only experienced one negotiation where the strong oppressed the weak. As for negotiations between evenly matched parties, he has no experience.
