I can see emperor stats-Chapter 61
second condition
Why did Bayen, who would later be called the Mangeum Chancellor, come to the Empire unexpectedly? This begins after Julius leaves Savior Academy.
After considerable deliberation, Dean Dippet invites one of this year's academy graduates to the dean's office.
"oh! Bayon, come here.”
"Dean, I'm glad you always seem to be correct."
Byian was his special favorite student from the time he entered school. Dean Dippet's eye for people is well known. As an educator, where should he send these talents?
'Mareus, do you owe him one thing?'
In fact, I tried to respect his choice, considering that Dippet is a talented person who will stand out wherever he goes in Bayern.
He could have gone to a slightly bigger kingdom, but after graduation, his aspiration was to return to his homeland.
"It's a bit sudden, but I'll write you a letter of recommendation, so don't you have the heart to go to the Empire?"
“You mean the Sharnos Empire?”
“The empire is only there. As you know, Mareus, the most successful classmate there, is my close friend. If it is my request, I will treat you seriously.”
“… … !”
When Byan seems to hesitate, Dippet persuades him with a more subdued tone.
“As you know, the empire has recently been recruiting talent on a large scale due to the development of the north. Are you from a commoner? In fact, in my opinion, the Simon kingdom is too small to accommodate a talent like you.”
This was the candid feeling of Dean Dippet. In fact, I feel sorry for Mareus because of the problem of opposing Julius' study abroad, but the biggest reason is that I want to send him to a slightly better place with a bright future.
“I really appreciate the dean’s consideration, but I think you should give him time to think.”
“Okay, think about it.”
Bayern had to think about it quite a bit after that. He was, in fact, a man who had no great ambitions for success. However, the speech he heard at the academy last year from Julius was of interest to him as well.
“I need talent!”
In addition, recently, rumors about the first prince have been heard even in distant castles.
“I heard you deliberately went to the far north and volunteered to subdue barbarians?”
“Certainly, among the high-ranking people on the continent, he is the most talked-about person.”
On top of that, Dean Dipet is also a great benefactor to him. Although he was not from a very wealthy family, he believed in his talent and gave him many favors.
As his request overlapped, he eventually chose to go to Empire.
“This is an opportunity given by the dean, so I will make sure to succeed.”
"haha! You made a good choice. That Mareus will fully appreciate your talent.”
[Except for the prince you sent for the past ten years, I am your favorite student. Please take good care of me. I put a lot of effort into sending Aira, who is not very greedy, to the Empire.]
-Dipette-
"hmm?"
At first, Mareus gave a disapproving look when he saw Byan, who had come with a letter of recommendation.
'Hey, what's special about a student recommended by a guy who judges His Highness based on rumors?'
“Did you say bayon? You better be prepared to work under me!”
However, after about a month of having him work, Mareus couldn't help but be surprised.
'Is this really the fortune he gave me?'
Bayon not only excelled in overall administrative skills to the extent that he could do more than the basics no matter what he was asked to do, but above all, he had outstanding talents in commerce and financial management.
'He's a young man whose talent for finance is at least better than mine'
After a few months like that, Mareus naturally had no choice but to favor him.
“I think this guy will be mainly in charge of managing the veins rather than me. And I plan to do other takeovers gradually.”
'I'm already too old. We need more servants who will firmly support His Highness Julius.'
In fact, it wasn't that Mareus didn't worry about this issue. However, he is also a genius who has not been comparable to anyone on the continent as an administrator in recent decades.
'A Bayon is a guy with the talent to be my successor.'
Julius listened roughly to the circumstances, and only then did he know why Mareus had acted so hard.
“A takeover? I want to be sorry. I still need your help.”
"haha. Of course, I'm not going to step out of the front lines all of a sudden. But he is just as good.”
Julius also said the same thing, but he felt very good.
'Anyway, I got another good talent. It's unexpected'
Julius offers to shake his hand. Prince and Commoner! Although status is the difference between heaven and earth, Byan is a person worthy of a handshake.
“As I mentioned before at the academy, thank you for choosing the Empire! Please do a lot of activities in the future.”
“I am embarrassed.”
Bayon also hurriedly held hands with a somewhat embarrassed feeling, as he never dreamed that the prince would welcome him this far.
'Is it that much trust in Mareus-nim? or not?'
Mareus, who looked at the two happily, opened his mouth again.
“Then you must be tired from coming a long way. I think you should rest for tomorrow's negotiations.”
So the meeting of the day ended. Tomorrow is finally the start of the deal he's been waiting for over a year.
* * *
next day.
“The meeting place is the same as then. Should I go alone this time?”
“Wasn’t it a big deal back then? As I said before, they are quite communicative, so there should be no problem.”
Julius, who was also escorted to a secret room within the blue dragon guild, received a polite greeting as soon as he entered the room.
“Before, it was really rude. My name is Zhuge Hwa-yeong, and I am managing the business of the continent at Sega. It is an honor to meet His Highness, a prince of great reputation.”
Behind her, Zhuge Geon, who was called Sang Sangju the other day, also bows his head deeply.
"Although it's been over a year, it was actually quite rude. A real merchant came out this time, so let's pretend it didn't happen then."
Julius sits down with an air of arrogance. It was the behavior of a prince-like Ahn Ha-mu, but Jegal Hwa-young, who greeted him so politely, had a completely different idea.
“I am grateful for your forgiveness.”
'This prince is not an ordinary person. He can never be caught off guard.'
She has been observing the prince's actions in the north, using the power of Sega, which has now established itself in the north as well. And the conclusion I came to was this.
'You should get as close as possible. If they become enemies, Sega's relocation plan will be greatly disrupted.'
Of course, she was well aware of Sega's potential. It was a decision she made because she was confident enough to abandon the foundation she had built in the East Continent and move to the West Continent.
However, Julius had a status as well as a status, but overall, he showed an outstanding performance.
'I can't even guess his ability as a soldier, and looking at his actions in the north this time, his strategy and tactics are excellent. He is also a person who has the benevolence to attract people.'
There was a calculation in her polite response.
'As expected, it seems that they recognized me as an equal or better trading partner.'
Julius also had many thoughts in his mind. In my previous life, I had to pay a considerable price to borrow their abilities, but this time is different.
'It's not about being in the position I'm asking for, but I have to shake them as much as possible and take the initiative on this side!'
And he had some keys to make it possible.
“I received a report from Mareus for now. The fact that the northern development was accomplished so quickly is largely due to that side.”
"It's all thanks to Your Highness's help."
Aren't we inseparable now?
Her friendly response, always smiling, was a subtle request to take care of them in the future.
After such a light exploration, Julius brought up the subject. He took a map from his bosom and unfolded it.
“You may have received a message from Mareus, but this is a map of the veins in the northern mountains. You can judge the value yourself.”
She went through it step by step, and inwardly she was astonished.
'The reserves are higher than expected. Securing a stake in this deal would cut Sega's move plans by several years.'
Zhuge Sega is actually quite wide-footed in the East Continent, and the blue dragon top is only a part of their forces. Of course, getting out of the way takes time, but the crucial thing is money!
Moving the main foundations of the East Continent is also a problem, but crucially, it is more important to roast and boil the powerful people of the West Continent.
The reason why she tries not to cheat with Julius is because the reputation he has built up in the north, where Sega is now located, is so strong that if there is a conflict with him right now, all the credit could be in vain.
“As for the terms of the deal, as I said before, I will give you a 20 percent stake. Actually, it's too much to give to one of the upper ranks.”
“You are absolutely right.”
This dite ore is a mineral that can only be found on the western continent. However, since trade with the East Continent began, it was treated as a kind of luxury item by the Imperial Family and high-ranking officials in the East Continent.
In other words, the value is considerable even in the western continent, but its rarity increases even more if it is brought to the eastern continent. It is an opportunity that cannot be missed by those families with connections in the East Continent.
“Then can I hear the answer to what happened to my condition now? Honestly, it's not a difficult condition, is it?”
"If it's just for show, yes, but... … .”
she is tense Actually, this is the biggest problem. Sega strictly restricts the export of secret machines. But that's why the prince must have put forward unconventional conditions.
“Actually, according to Sega’s answer… … .”
She finishes explaining. The condition that it must be read when Sega's base is definitely transferred, or it must be directly transferred to the East Continent. She hastily adds an excuse as well.
“We are well aware that His Highness has placed unconventional conditions on us. So even if you reduce your stake... … .”
Julius, who had been listening to the story with a sad expression, began to show anger on his face.
“Are you trying to play puns with me?”
“I apologize.”
Certainly those conditions weren't worth the wait for Julius now. So it's not that I didn't expect him to be angry. The moment she tries to get her word out.
“Twenty people on the first floor, twelve on the second floor… … .”
"what?"
"And there's one here too."
After circling the ceiling and the floor in turn, Julius' gaze finally turned to the Zhuge Gun standing next to her.
“It looks like you moved the base quite a bit, right? Is it really necessary to keep that many unmanned people on standby during negotiations?”
In an instant, Jegal Hwa-yeong's expression hardens as cold as ice.
'How did Sega find out the people who were raised for espionage purposes so easily?'
I knew that this prince was an excellent warrior, but I never dreamed that she would be able to match the masters of the Sega that she had prepared just in case.
They also hid that they were secretly hiding their presence, but they could not escape the senses of Julius, who had learned the white tiger self-defense.
Seeing her expression harden, Julius slowly spoke again.
“Aren’t those who want to make a deal look at me too funny, just like last time? This one offered good conditions.”
'Am I wrong?'
She thought that at this moment they had lost the prince's trust. However, the words that came out of Julius' mouth were completely different.
“Then I will ask you for additional conditions. Wouldn't that be fair?”
“… … !”
He has lost his temper and is smiling brightly.
“Use the [Hyeonwoljeon] unmanned soldiers on standby to help me.”
Zhuge Hwa-yeong was so shocked at this moment that she couldn't speak. However, only facial expression management is thorough.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Do I have to say it again?”
Julius spoke again clearly.
"It's the end of the Hyeonwoljeon, an information group on fantasy run by Jegal Sega."
