A few days later, Freya and several men from her own line of defense arrived at Richard's makeshift negotiating site in the Empty Gap.

In the open-air conference room, there is a long table, and the two sides sit in turn. Freya was surrounded by the priests she was carrying, and Richard was facing her, and next to her were Primatis and Diluca, with paper money in front of her, who was the clerk of the meeting.

"I don't think I'll be able to say polite words, you and I are not people who have time, hurry up and say something important. ”

Richard put his hands on the table, urging Freya. This meeting, for Richard, was more about trying to steal some information from Freya's language. After the last meeting, Richard was already twelve points alert to Freya, and added new divine power from Ligredot to run in his body, relying on the principle that the divine power between the goddesses does not affect each other to keep himself awake at all times. Primatis also wears a crystal pendant made of Diluka around his neck.

Today's Freya had a sincere expression, and when she heard Richard's words, she said seriously: "Okay, in that case, I won't talk about that nonsense, let's go straight to the topic." As I said before, I hope that this war, Fluke is seeking a perfect outcome through dialogue without the sacrifice of people and soldiers. ”

Richard frowned and objected: "The previous Ymir has spread the war to many cities in Fluk, and your people have already suffered, so it is a bit naïve to say such things now. ”

"You are right, my people have suffered, and when Ymir invaded, I did not get the opportunity to speak to him. Now that Ymir's forces have been largely cleared of Fluk, and you have arrived with your army, I cannot let my people repeat the mistakes of the past. It is my duty as the patron saint of this land. ”

Richard caught Freya's wording: "You just said basics?"

Freya said with an unchanged expression: "Indeed, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Ymir's strength in the various cities has been cleared, but there are still a small number of followers lurking in the shadows. These people were once my people, and they knew every hiding place in their city, which caused some trouble for the army that pursued them, but I am confident that we will be victorious. ”

Richard asked with some curiosity, "These people who follow you were also your people, and you don't seem to have mercy on them?"

Freya said solemnly: "You also said that they used to be, but they betrayed their compatriots and betrayed their beliefs, from the moment they joined the demon invaders, they are no longer my people, but my enemies!

Richard nodded, Freya was not like Thor. Of course, the situation encountered by the two is also different, one is a small minority, and the other is the vast majority of men.

Freya regained her old expression and said, "Just mentioned Ymir, there is information here that is also worth noting. Ymir's defeat was sudden, and it was a surprise. I had expected a protracted tug-of-war with him, but when I met him in a northern plain, his formidable army was shattered. The warriors from other directions were also overwhelmed, and easily regained the fallen city. The ease with which the final battle took me to think that Ymir was making an organized retreat, or even a larger conspiracy. ”

Richard said slowly: "If you tell me such information, can I understand that you want to investigate and deal with this matter with me?"

Freya categorically vetoed: "That's not the case, I don't have the idea of using the power of demons to deal with other demons now and in the future." ”

"Then you ......"

"I'm showing you sincerity. This information will save you a lot of time, and your intelligence troops will be able to find out this information with a little effort. ”

Richard's pupils shrank, and Freya smiled softly: "This is an open secret in everyone's hearts, isn't it? Everyone has their own spies, and I hope that if one day my intelligence officers are accidentally caught by you, I hope you can treat them well." ”

Richard did not answer. Freya pulled the hair from her ears behind her ears and said with a gentle smile that made Primatis throw his pen to the ground: "Actually, I hope that through the talks, I can find a way to communicate with the demons, and finally be able to build a bridge between the demons and the human race and the gods to peace." ”

Richard shook his head helplessly, if this was not the place where the future of the two sides was at stake, Richard would have laughed. The ambitions of the demons have been fully revealed, and only when this continent completely belongs to them will they seek peace again. Freya's dreams are somewhat hilarious. Compared with Richard's uncomfortable suffocation, Primatis was even more surprised, his mouth opened slightly, the whole person stopped moving, and the pen in his hand even slipped to the ground.

Richard's expression was serious, and he asked the question he heard she was going to hold a meeting: "Freya, are you telling the truth?"

This time, Freya's expression was serious, and her eyes also showed majesty, and her answer was the same as last time: "Yes, I hate to joke. ”

"Heh," Richard sneered, "you're such a dreamer." ”

Freya frowned, "Why do you say that?"

Richard held out a few fingers and said, "It's enough that you want to reconcile with the invaders." I can tell you very clearly, my goal is the land and the resources here!"

Freya's expression was flat: "If these are your demands, I can satisfy you, and I am willing to support you wholeheartedly as the king of Fluke in the name of the harvest god of the autumn moon." ”

As soon as these words came out, the open-air conference room fell silent. Richard looked into Freya's eyes, which wanted to tell Richard that he was telling him that he was telling the truth. But is there really such a good thing in the world? Richard recalled everything he knew, and seemed to touch something. Stringing the dots together, Richard seemed to figure out what Freya was going to do.

After the same, Richard's eyes looked at Freya with some disappointment: "It turns out that you are playing such an abacus. Joining forces with me will not only ensure that your people will not be harmed, but also deter other demon candidates. If I become the master of Fluk, even if Ymir has a follow-up action, he will not be able to turn up in front of me and dare not make any waves. You're still your goddess, and I get what I want from here, and it looks like a win-win situation. I'm a little disappointed, this meeting is not a sincere meeting, you just want to use me, and the concept of peace between people, gods and demons you said is just for you and the people. ”
