Chapter 416: Chapter 420, elder sister
Translator: 549690339
The purple-robed man brought Hiri back to Nolan’s Mage Tower first. Although the entire set was empty, Joshua could still feel the presence of someone around him.
This was the presence of the Watchers from the Demon World. The second princess tacitly allowed Joshua to build a portal to Faroese here, but she still sent the Watchers to watch the place in secret.
After Joshua returned to the Demon World, the second princess, Cecily, pushed the door open and walked out of the tavern. It seemed that she had been waiting here for a long time.
After seeing his eldest sister, Joshua was about to give the two contracts to Cecily, but Cecily quickly walked up to him and looked him up and down.
“You’re not hurt?”Her voice was as serious as ever.
“No. Although humans are a little cunning, they’re not that barbaric.”
Joshua was not used to Cecily suddenly being so close to him, so he took a step back.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were going to Faroese to negotiate with the King?”
After a short silence, Cecily asked Joshua.
“Eldest sister, haven’t you been busy with the internal affairs of the King’s city recently? So… I didn’t inform you.”
Of course, Jose was lying. In fact, after completing the filming of Avatar, Jose went straight to Farosi, forgetting to inform his elder sister about this matter.
Furthermore, Cecily had been busy appeasing the emotions of the demons in the Imperial City recently.
The sudden appearance of humans in the imperial city was not something that every demon could immediately accept. Only Cecily, who was the most prestigious Watcher in the Imperial City, could calm the panic of the citizens of the imperial city.
“The citizens of the imperial city have already accepted those human merchants.”Cecily seemed to have noticed that Jose was lying, however, she did not expose Jose, “Jose, can you tell me what happened in Farosi?”
“Let’s talk inside.”
Jose directly walked into the tavern, found a chair, sat down and handed the two contracts to Cecily. He also explained some important matters of this diplomatic mission to Cecily.
Cecily carefully browsed through the longest contract. Not only was the name of the goods written on it, even the Chamber of Commerce for sale was clearly written on it.
Many of the resources on it were what the demon world was short of, especially food and some daily necessities for the people.
In the past, Cecily had tried several times to communicate with human merchants, and even appointed monitors to purchase these resources under the disguise of humans. However, the final result was not ideal.
And the trade that Jose had negotiated was personally promised by King Farosi.
“I will pay for the purchase of these funds.”Cecily put down the list of goods in her hand and said.
“Sister Cecily, I have already settled the bargaining chip.”
“Settled… you have already provided enough food resources for the demon world, so I will still take over this trade.”
“I don’t object to you taking over, sister Cecily. It’s just that the bargaining chip that the king proposed is not money.”
Jose was really not good at dealing with this strong and serious elder sister.
“Not money? Then what is it?”
Cecily immediately fell into a state of alert when she heard this. She had been deceived by those cunning human merchants several times, which made her worry that her brother would fall into the same trap.
“The crystal that carries the picture of the movie, this is it.”Jose took out the original copy of avatar from his pocket and placed it on the table.
“The movie… can buy these?”
After Cecily contacted the ambassador from Faroese, she saw a movie called beauty and the Devil at the invitation of Jose.
After watching it, Cecily’s evaluation of the movie was very complicated, because she clearly understood that the sin demons in real life and the image in the movie were two extremes!
However, after those aristocratic ladies from Faroese brought some fish from the sea and went to the gathering place of the sin demons to ‘Sightsee’, the sin demons were becoming more and more like the image in “Beauty and the devil”.
This also resulted in the sin demons being the first demons to accept the appearance of humans in the royal city, followed by the blood breeds.
Cecily had to admit that the movie made by Jose was indeed very interesting. The scene of Belle and the sin demon dancing in the ballroom.., her maiden heart, which had been silent for an unknown number of years, was slightly touched.
But it was only a very slight touch.
“The value of each item varies from person to person. The king of Faroese thinks that he has this value, so he has this value,”Joshua said with a smile.
”…”
Cecily fell silent. She picked up the primary crystal that Joshua had placed on the table.
Although this primary crystal was of high quality, according to her understanding of humans, a primary crystal of this quality in the human market would cost around 20 gold coins.
This was because this crystal could only be used to record images after it was engraved with special inscriptions.
“Around 200 to 300 of these crystals. This is the price I offered,”said Jose. “These crystals will be finished in two to three days. If you have the time, I hope you can take over this transaction.”
Cecily had been dealing with the internal affairs of the Imperial City recently. Joshua had a vague feeling that something big had happened in the imperial city.
One of the things that worried Joshua the most was that the ruler of the demon world, Notlon, had not shown up for a long time. The ambassadors from Faroese were all received by Cecily.
“I should be free. I also need to go and negotiate with the king of Faroese.”
After reading the contents of the two contracts, Cecily raised her head and looked around for a moment.
At this moment, Jose felt that the aura of the people around him had completely disappeared.
“Jose.”Cecily put down the contract in her hand and looked at Jose with her crimson eyes.
“Father’s recent situation… is not good.”
“Specific performance?”Jose’s guess seemed to be correct.
“He hasn’t left the altar for a long time. Although I talk to him every day, I don’t plan to leave, nor do I manage the things in the king’s city.”
A map appeared in Cecily’s hand and spread out on the table in front of Jose.
“Recently, not only has the land in the king’s city turned into ash, but two residents have also turned into distorted monsters. Although the ash has improved recently, it’s very slow.”
“This… looks like what the judges did. Could it be that those guys sneaked into the royal city?”
In the face of Joshua’s question, Cecily shook her head.
“I’ve used Banshees to investigate the people inside the Watchers and the royal city. They’re all normal.”
“Perhaps the world tree can cure these ashes. In short, wait for me to return to Nolan first.”
Tyreen was the foundation of Nolan’s magic net. Joshua would definitely not let her risk coming to the demon world, and the World Tree of Carrie was too young.
However, Joshua could ask Tyreen if there was any way to ‘resurrect’the land.
At this moment, a Crow’s cry came from outside the tavern. The reporter that Joshua had dispatched finally returned to the demon world today.
