Chapter 1442 The Seven Godsʼ Grand Plan (1)

Jaylen looked at his King with his eyes widened open. That was different from what they planned. They had two proposals. First, it was a marriage alliance between the first princess and Sir Tang Shaoyang.

If Sir Tang Shaoyang refused the proposal. Then they would proceed with the second proposal. Submit to Sir Tang Shaoyang as a vassal. They agreed to the plan, but King Manasa was straight to the second proposal without mentioning the marriage alliance.

The purpose of the marriage alliance was to keep The Osligia Kingdomʼs status on the same level as The Tang Empire. Might be greedy for their situation, but the First Princess was a peerless beauty. It was hard for a human to reject her.

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow, a tempting proposal. There was nothing for him to lose. But again, they wanted his protection, but what could he get from them? If they were too weak, then it would take time and more resources to nurture them. He did not want to accept a half-baked kingdom that relied on the barrier to survive.

”Letʼs say I accept you as my vassal. What can I get from giving your kingdom protection? What can your kingdom contribute?”

King Manasa thought of many things that the elf excelled with. But the words just did not come out of his mouth. No matter how proud he was about his race, nothing could be proven because they tried to hide under the barrier.

What was the feat of The Osligia Kingdom in the last ten years? None! They might have repelled The Clown Troupeʼs attempt to breach their city. But they knew it was not the Clown Troupeʼs full power.

The Clown God had stayed outside the barrier to analyze the barrier in the last ten years. Once Clown God successfully analyzed the barrier, then The Osligia Kingdom would become history in Aqura.

Whatever is in his mind, it would be just an empty word with no weight.

A bitter smile formed on King Manasaʼs lips, ”Thereʼs nothing we can offer, but our bodies and lives, Sir Tang Shaoyang. We will fight for your cause. Thatʼs the only thing The Osligia Kingdom can offer.”

The King decided to be honest instead of boasting about the elfʼs specialty. That lowered his kingdomʼs chance to be accepted, but he felt like that was the right thing to do. Furthermore, Sir Tang Shaoyang already had two beauties that rivaled his daughter on the side.

However, he immediately regretted his decision as soon as he said that. It was just stupid to do so, especially when his kingdom was in danger. So what if Sir Tang Shaoyang had two beauties? With his daughter, that would make it to three beauties. Three beauties were better than two beauties.

The moment the news that the barrier disappeared, the neighboring kingdoms would come to his door. Sir Tang Shaoyang might be the only chance for his kingdomʼs survival.

”Thatʼs what I want to hear from my vassal,” Tang Shaoyang nodded his head, ”Form a team to be your kingdomʼs representatives to talk with my people. If you agree with the condition, then we will formalize the vassalship of your Kingdom.”

”Is that the only thing you want to talk about?”

Once more, King Manasa was surprised that his proposal was accepted. He accepted it if Sir Tang Shaoyang refused his proposal once he gave his honest answer. But it was out of his expectation that Sir Tang Shaoyang accepted his proposal.

He opened his mouth, but there were no words coming out. He just did not know what to say. It was hard to express what he felt right now.

”Ah, yes…” He was at a loss for a moment before snapping out, ”May I know when we will leave, Your Majesty?”

”Thirty minutes or maybe an hour,” Tang Shaoyang stood up and left the room.

Jaylen let out a big breath of relief. He thought King Manasa messed up the plan. They achieved the desired result.

”We have twenty minutes to decide the team. We can pick my daughter for the team. If Sir Tang Shaoyang is interested, then we can still proceed with the marriage. If Sir Tang Shaoyang did not have interest, then itʼs also fine.”

*** ***

Tang Shaoyang did not expect such a proposal from The King. He thought The King wanted to talk about compensation for what happened earlier. He thought they wanted to give him something to appease him from what happened before.

That was the only thing that came to mind. Not expecting them to submit after he destroyed the barrier that had been protecting them for years.

That was not a bad gain. He discovered dozens of Demi-God Ranks in their soldiers. In a year or two, he might be able to produce several God Ranks from the Osligia Kingdom.

Following The Exalted Priest, he arrived in Luneaʼs room. Her room was so casual for a Goddessʼ room. A single bed, a pair of a table and a chair, and a wooden closet.

The Goddess of Light was pale. The resurrection took a toll on her body for sure. Fortunately, her resurrection was different from Arinaʼs resurrection where she had to sacrifice her level. Lunea was still God Rank.

”There is a lot we need to talk about…” Tang Shaoyang came next to the bed and paused.

Lunea was struggling even to sit on the bed. That was how weak she had become, ”Letʼs talk later until you recover a little bit more.”

Lunea managed to sit and lean on the headboard with Graciaʼs help, ”No. We can talk now. You can ask me whatever you want to know, Your Majesty.”

Gracia looked concerned after hearing the first part, but she was shocked after hearing the last part. Goddess Lunea, a being who was worshiped by thousands of people. Calling Tang Shaoyang Your Majesty, as if she recognized Sir Tang Shaoyang as her Emperor.

”I am glad you adhere to our deal. I will meet the deal at my end. You can come to my world and set up your tower. But thatʼs for later. Thereʼs something else I want to talk about. About your old friend!”

”What does it mean they crossed the Systemʼs authority? And I want to know the reason why you leave them too.”
