Chapter 747 - before the negotiation

Noggs was outside the Imperial City of the Devil World. It used to be a fertile land, but now the land had turned into dust, and the Devils who lived here were nowhere to be seen.

“After father passed away, did Cecily become the ruler of the Imperial City?”

Noggs half-knelt on the ground and picked up the gray land, looking at the Imperial City of the Devil World from afar.

Although the land outside was barren, the royal city seemed to have become much more prosperous. The human creations entering the royal city from the city gate could be said to be endless.

“No, Her Highness Cecily is managing this city, but she has not announced to anyone that she has inherited the position of ruler.”

A monitor stood behind Nogus and said.

Noggs had guarded the border of the demon world all year round, but he had planted many of his own spies in the Imperial City. When he heard the news of his father’s death, his first reaction was that his sister had used some despicable means.

However, the intelligence brought back by the spies was very disadvantageous to Noggs.

Two of the four dukes seemed to have already stood on Cecily’s side. In addition, the snowstorm in the Frost Plains had stopped, so Noggs really had no time to spare to care about the dispute in the imperial city.

“Not Yet? What on Earth is she waiting for?”

Noggs let go of the soil that had turned to dust in his hand. A month was enough for Cecily to turn the Imperial City and the entire demon world into her possession.

At present, Noggs could not figure out Cecily and Joshua’s actions. This time, Noggs could not be sure whether Joshua’s invitation was real or fake.

However… The Frost Kingdom did not show any signs of sending troops. Noggs wanted to take this opportunity to clarify the internal affairs of the demon world.

The first thing he needed to do was to go to Nolan and negotiate with the king of the Frost Kingdom!

A dark green teleportation door opened beside Noggs. General Voss escorted an old man in blue with shackles on his hands and appeared in front of Noggs.

After entering the border fortress, he used his magic power and the Sage emblem to prove his identity.

The blue-clothed man, one of Nolan’s seven sages.

“This is… This is the corrosion of something beyond the realm.”

The first reaction of the blue-clothed man after walking out of the portal was to kneel down on a barren ground like Noggs.

“Something beyond the realm…”

This was not the first time Noggs had heard this term. Jose had warned him a long time ago that the real enemy was not the humans of the frost kingdom, but the master of the gray fog.

Nogsy had never taken this warning to heart.

The blue-clothed man put his hands on the ground. His hands were wearing shackles that could seal magic power, but the blue runes on his arms flashed. These runes spread all the way to the blue-clothed man’s face.

The Flaming Spear in general Voss’s hand was pressed against the neck of the sage.

“Stop,”Noggs said.

“The land of your country has been corroded by the things outside the world, but under the corpse, it contains vigorous vitality,”the blue-clothed man said in disbelief.

“Your Highness.”

General Voss was waiting for Noggs’next order.

“Go to the portal to Nolan.”

Under this order, General Voss grabbed his arm and threw the blue-clothed man into the portal.

Nogus also walked into the teleportation gate. When he walked out of the teleportation gate again, he arrived at a warehouse at the edge of the abyss of sins.

When the demons who were pushing carts and distributing goods saw Nogus, they were all stunned.

Nogus didn’t tell Cecily that he would come back. Nogus didn’t pay attention to those demons who were still in a daze. He directly walked into the teleportation gate leading to Nolan under the guidance of General Voss.

..

The Embassy of the frosty country.

It was rare for Joshua to wear a formal suit and sit in the meeting hall of the Embassy of the frosty country.

The noble king of the frosty country, Shirer, was sitting at the top of the meeting hall. In addition, many nobles that Joshua was not familiar with were sitting in the meeting hall.

It had been a long time since Joshua and Shirer met each other in the real world. Usually, they would chat about some common topics in the magic web message.

In the messages, shier gave Joshua the impression that she was a little girl who liked to send emojis. However, in real life today… the little girl who always had an owl expression when she spoke.., she had become a queen who was so cold that she was a little unreasonable.

Killing intent was a real thing. Although Joshua had tried his best to avoid the internal topics of the Kingdom of Frost, from the information that shier had revealed.., she had been pacifying the internal strife in the frost kingdom during this period of time.

As for how many people she had killed during the period of pacification, Joshua had no way of knowing. However, seeing those old nobles obediently submit to this young king who had just taken power for less than a year.., shier still had some political tricks up his sleeve.

As Joshua was lamenting shier’s iron-blooded tactics, a message popped up in front of Joshua’s eyes.

The message was from Shea. The content was ‘a little nervous’.

The moment Joshua received the message, he looked at Shea, who was sitting on the highest seat. Joshua could not see any signs of nervousness from her at all.

‘I’m your negotiation opponent now. Is it really good to expose your current state of mind to your opponent?’

Below, Joshua tapped on the virtual keyboard with his finger and edited the message to send to shier.

’?’

This short symbol was accompanied by an owl expression that Joshua had seen many times.

‘Don’t ask questions. I’m now representing the demon world in this negotiation.’

‘negotiation is the thing that I’m the least good at. It’s also the demon world dispute that the late King hasn’t resolved for many years, so I’m really nervous now.’

Shirer didn’t seem to understand Joshua’s position at all. Although the demon world was trying to negotiate with the frost kingdom this time, the terms of the negotiation needed to be discussed between both sides.

Both sides would definitely have to argue over the terms. As the representative of the demon world, in a sense, Joshua was Shirer’s enemy.

But this ‘main general’of the Frost Kingdom took the initiative to talk to his enemy before the confrontation arrived, saying,’I’m afraid I Can’t win.’

‘well… since you can gain the trust of the citizens and nobles in the country, your eloquence should be quite good, but don’t you think so?’

Joshua had inquired about the reputation of Shirer in the frost kingdom at the current stage. It could be described as a national hero. Shirer was deeply loved by the people and respected by some nobles, while the other part was fear.

‘I’m only responsible for quelling the rebellion. I rarely speak in front of the people… General Armt told me, ‘If you don’t know what to say, you might as well keep silent. This will make you look more dignified.’

At the end of this message, shier also added a proud behavior of an owl raising its thumb with its wings.

”…”

At this time, Joshua did not know how to answer other than sending out ellipses. At this time, Joshua could vaguely hear the discussion between the nobles behind him.

“The war that lasted for a hundred years can finally end today. His Majesty shier has done something that even the greatest hero of our country could not do.”

“Those demons must be afraid of His Majesty shier, that’s why they took the initiative to come and negotiate.”

Stop for a moment. When I brought up the topic of ‘just settle the dispute between the demon world and the Frost Kingdom’to your king, your king was still eating ice cream! What dignity could there be to talk about.

Joshua quietly listened to the nobles’praise for shier. Perhaps in their opinion, shier must have single-handedly facilitated this peace conference.

The peace between the demon world and the Frost Kingdom, which had lasted for hundreds of years, had caused too much damage to the two countries. In the past few generations, many kings had tried to negotiate peace with the demon world, but in the end, they all failed.

This kind of feat would be written in the history books of the Frost Kingdom in the future. Shirer would probably be a wise king or something.

Just as Jose was thinking about whether the negotiation could go smoothly, he received a new message.

‘where is the location?’

The owner of this message was Noggs.

‘The Embassy of the Frost Kingdom. Brother, I remember that someone has already sent a magic car to pick you up,’Jose immediately replied.

“That noisy machine made by humans? Sitting on that thing makes me feel very uncomfortable, as if I’m cursed.”

“That’s not a curse, it’s just that you get Carsick!”!

“Then, brother, you…”

“Isn’t this the most prosperous city of humans? Why isn’t there even a coachman?”

The carriage had been eliminated by Nolan’s Courier Station half a year ago! Brother! Driving a magic carriage was popular now.

Jose covered his face weakly. This was probably the type of person who had stayed at home for God knows how many years, then saw a butterfly fly past his eyes and suddenly asked, “What kind of bird is this?”.
