Chapter 55: The Agreement is Reached
Hearing this answer, Shul smiled very delicately.
Yesterday in the tavern, Shure and Ferrers suggested that their plans be put on hold for the time being, and that the plant gods and water gods be given a little more time, and they might be able to deal with something. It is said that when it comes to the painstakingly prepared plan, whether it is the Lord of Flame or his priests, it will take a while to consider and weigh before they can give an answer, but I didn't expect that just a day later, the other party has already unanimously agreed from top to bottom, should we praise their execution efficiency enough, or should we sigh that Orana's evaluation is not wrong at all?
"What a look on your face. Fellers said dissatisfiedly, "We accepted your offer, and you don't seem to be very happy." β
"Why, do you think I should sing a hymn or do a minuet to show that I'm happy?" Shure pouted, not bothering to argue with him, "So, your alliance ......"
"The alliance will not be suspended, however, give you two years. Ferrus held up three fingers, looked at it, and withdrew another one, "In two years' time, we will continue to carry out our plan, and don't forget your promise that if nothing goes by then, your Darkmoon Temple will also be involved." β
"Oh, even the oracles of the gods are privately discounted, you are really competent as a priest. Schulle didn't think that Ferrers was illiterate, at most he changed his words temporarily.
"If this trend continues, three years is already very dangerous, even two years I think is long, if possible, two days will be good. β
"Shure, what did you tell them?" said Minnie in a fierce voice, "you promised my lord ......"
"Dark Moon above, Minnie-sama, do I look like the kind of person who casually breaks his promise?"
Well, it's like. Minnie was embarrassed to say this, but her eyes still betrayed her.
"Heh, I think I'm like that, but at least I didn't do it this time. I'm just telling Lord Fellers that the commission I've given me by Lord Anika is related to the Great Rift, as proof that the two adults haven't stopped tracking. Shure explained earnestly, "So you and Lord Anika can rest assured that I am the only one who knows about it, even if Lisa doesn't know about it, and of course, according to the agreement, if my lord asks, I am not responsible for concealing it." β
"That's good. After staring into Shure's eyes for a while, confirming that he was telling the truth, Minnie was relieved, but suddenly her face changed, "The Great Rift is related to Ferrus!"
"Have you told Shul the truth?" Minnie and Oranna's faces changed drastically at the same time, especially Minnie, who said with a little nervousness and annoyance, "Do you want to kill him? And aren't you afraid of breaking your oath?"
"Lady Ofregan won't even skip this step. Orlana also said with a calm face, "This is against the agreement between the gods. β
"When is it your turn to teach us the Children of Fire how to do things. Fellers squinted, his short fiery red hair standing on end like a burning flame, "Even standing in Lord Wendy's sanctuary, I don't think you're qualified to dictate my actions. β
Can you still have a good chat?
Shuer's face was entangled, the two sides were two diametrically opposed types in terms of priesthood, personality and behavior, no wonder they had been fighting for thousands of years, and I am afraid that similar fights would continue.
"Praise the clear water, thank you Lord Orlana for your love, although I would like to know why telling me the truth is tantamount to killing me, is there a ban on top of the ban, but these details can be put aside for the time being, although the two adults can rest assured, they did not tell me the truth, and the truth is more closely hidden than the two. β
"Praise the Breath of the Forest, and thank you Minnie for your concern, I just guessed from some details that the problem is related to the Great Rift, and I don't know all the inside story, because the Great Rift is only a manifestation after all, not the root cause, I think that knowing the root cause is the inside story. β
The four of them looked at each other, and no one spoke, and it was easy to give Shur a hint and break his oath by talking casually at this time.
"If you don't want to say it, then I'll tell you. Xiu Er didn't expect an answer, and said to himself, "Since both sides want our Dark Moon Temple and the Sky God System behind it to join their camp, then I might as well simply take this opportunity to let the two sides gather together and explain what they said." β
"It's not that you explain to each other, and if you talk about it for a thousand years, you probably won't be able to understand it, and there will be no other result than fighting. So, I'm the middleman, and I say, listen. You are all priests who serve the gods, so I guess you still have the ability to tolerate this. β
The faces of the four people were not very good-looking, but in the end they all nodded in agreement, and no one raised objections, after all, everyone's fundamental purpose is to solve the problem, quarrels and fights are just piggybacking, and it is still very beneficial to have a neutral party to mediate the conflict.
"With the Darkmoon Sanctuary as the neutral overseer, it's me personally, because I've been involved mostly before, and I'm about to be involved in more events in the future, so it's most convenient for me to oversee it. Shure pressed his finger to the Darkmoon emblem on his chest and said to Ferrus and Camille, "On behalf of the Darkmoon Temple, I am responsible for guaranteeing that the Water God System and the Forest God System will continue to follow up on the issues related to that unspeakable topic, and if I find that the two God Lines show signs of giving up on the investigation, it is my responsibility to inform the Fire Temple and the War God Temple, and help the two God Temples complete their previous covenants and plans, or call ...... ritual, and at this time, the water god and the forest god can no longer obstruct the implementation of the plan, two adults, are you satisfied with this promise?"
"I've investigated you, you never mix personal factors in official affairs, regardless of relatives and relatives, so your teammates are willing to follow you, and we can rest assured that you will be the supervisor, so, well, it's quite satisfying. β
"Good, next is the other side. Turning to Minnie and Orana, Shure continued to tap on the emblem," On behalf of the Darkmoon Temple, I am responsible for guaranteeing that the Fire God Temple and the War God Temple will temporarily stop the alliance, and temporarily suspend the implementation of the plan for a period of three years (hey, it is two years), well, for a period of two years, once it is found that the two temples have signs of continuing to carry out the plan, it should be regarded as a violation of the agreement, then, the Darkmoon Temple will not be limited to the alliance relationship that is about to be reached with the Water Temple, which is limited to the current state, but further, clearly oppose the alliance between the two temples, and take the initiative to guide the other temples of the Sky God Department to carry out the same behavior, two lords, what is your opinionοΌβ
"That person is right, you can do business, although you are too profit-oriented, but in public affairs, no matter how big the interests are, you will not show favoritism, even in the most difficult time of the temple, you have not used the team's public property, we will not doubt your impartiality. Orlana pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "You vouch for it, we don't object." β
"Phew, both sides can give a step, that's a good start. Xiuer let out a long breath and smiled with satisfaction, "Supplementary terms, during the duration of the agreement, that is, for two years, the two parties shall not set up obstacles to each other's normal activities, especially the Fire God Temple and the War God Temple, such as the Water God Department and the Forest God System are in need in the process of tracking down the clues, and the two God Temples are obliged to provide them with appropriate assistance, both material and manpower." In the same way, if there is no clear progress in the investigation within the time limit, then when the Fire God Temple restarts the plan two years later, although the Water God System and the Forest God Department are not forced to join the plan, they must also provide the same assistance appropriately, will both sides accept it?"
"Yes. β
"No comment. β
"That's all for the basic terms, if the four adults don't object, I'll draw up a detailed contract in the next few days, and after you look at it, you can swear to the gods and the Endless Void according to the contract. In the event of a breach of the contract, not only is it punished by the oath, but the other members are obliged to make the facts public. β
"Is that appropriate?" said Camille, a believer in the god of war who had never said a word, in a broken lingua franca, "it would damage the majesty of the gods." β
"Wouldn't it be nice if it didn't go against it?"
"As long as the fish in the water are willing to accept it, we Sons of Fire will not refuse. Fellers sneered, "But I want to retract my evaluation of your clear distinction between public and private, and your supplementary clause obviously leaves room for yourself to take the opportunity to extort our material help." β
"Hehehe, how could it be, I'm such an honest intermediary. "Sometimes it's not important at all.
"But it doesn't matter, you know the proportion, even if it is blackmail, it will not be too much, we Fire God Temple and War God Temple don't care. "Among the followers of Ofregan, there are a large number of forging craftsmen, especially the blacksmiths of the dwarven clan, who control almost forty percent of the high-level forging trade of Pavatiga, and the donations obtained by the Fire God Temple every year are estimated to be able to renovate the Darkmoon Sanctuary, of course they don't care.
"Well, that's better than ......"
"I'm not done yet, we don't care, because we won't give you whatever you want anyway. β
"Hey, don't think that if you're a legendary powerhouse, I won't dare to say anything, I can't beat you, can't I scold you?"
"Since even those barbarians are willing to take a step back, we have no reason to refuse, well, we accept it too. Orlana said seriously, "Of course, my lord and Lord Anika also hope that Pavadiga will be safe, so they will follow the clues, and if they really can't find the clues, then try desperately according to the ideas of those barbarians, and this is also the last resort." When the time comes, I don't need them to say anything, my lord and Lord Anika will also offer their full assistance. β
"In that case, the agreement is made. β
