I’m the King Of Technology

the matter too.

And that’s why he felt the need to discuss things with Landon.

.

Uther and a few of his ministers all sat in his office, talking about the matter.

And as they spoke, their voices became even more and more rushed, as anxiety seemed to swallow them whole.

They knew that even they turned frightened when they first heard about the disease.

Humans had the instinctive response to first protect themselves in strange and bizarre scenarios like this.

Even in war, humans would go in fearlessly because they had a weapon, s.h.i.+eld or blind belief in some religious faith.

People needed some guarantee when going in.

So who would be willing to enter this particular battlefield after hearing that all the healers who went in died in just a few days?

This wasn’t like treating wounds or something.

It was a disease! A deadly one that could spread out and kill them all!

So in cases like this, people might choose to lie to Landon, not telling him the full extent of the matter and indirectly convince him to accept the task.

But the Zalipnians didn’t want to fool their saviour or anyone else for their matter… The heavens were always watching and would fight for the innocent one day.

So why commit such a sin and send someone in when they weren’t prepared for the daunting task ahead?

They very readily laid down their cards and truthfully told all they knew of the matter without withholding anything back.

And Landon’s silence was what made them a little fearful too.

Now, the air in the room had become so hard and brittle that it could snap at any given time.

The Zalipnians all looked at each other secretly, as if using their eyes to talk to one another.

Their faces turned ashen with worry, and without even knowing it, many had begun crossing and uncrossing their hands in anxiety.

And the culprit that caused their current state was still sitting quietly like an expressionless statue.

This… This…

His majesty Landon was going to reject them, right?

~Gru~~~

“Y-y-your majesty Landon, so, can you help us?”

Everyone’s body had subconsciously leaned forward.

And just when they had readied themselves for rejection, Landon suddenly burst out into laughter.

~Giggle.
Giggle.
Giggle~

“You all should see the looks on your faces!”

The tension in the room suddenly vanished, and everyone now realized that they had been played by his majesty, Landon.

Dammit! For a moment, he truly gave them a jump scare.

Nonetheless, they also knew that his actions meant that he had agreed to their request.

Uther’s lips quivered with a hint of glee and annoyance: “How dare you tease this old man like this?”

“Heh… Old is right.
For the first time, I’m glad you’ve finally accepted that you’re an old man.” Landon said playfully.

“You!…” Uther wanted to smack the cheeky brat’s head.

And the interaction between the duo just made everyone else smile too.

The relations.h.i.+p between both empires sure is good.
