Chapter 161: Change

The day after the defeat of Herodes' army, Vincent and Lingus finalized many details of the terms of negotiation.

The young demon prince is in good spirits at night, and there is no pressure to work overtime, anyway, in his previous life, he was used to staying up late to work.

Lingus, who was seriously injured during the day, although he tried his best to support him, his energy and emotions were not in a state, and many details were not tried to fight, so he hastily accepted it.

The demons really don't talk about martial arts, and use their night advantage to take advantage, Lingus has no choice, and not to be outdone, he can only accompany him with black eyes.

On several occasions, while Vincent was gushing his opinions, Lingus leaned back in his chair and took a nap.

At this time, the sofa with the built-in slime will activate the anti-sleepiness mode, and a ghost animal operation that the chief knight of the kingdom can't parry, directly forcibly bring Lingus back from his sleep.

At this time, Lingus realized that the treatment that the demons had prepared for him was uneasy and kind, making people comfortable to the point of drowsiness on the one hand, and making people unable to rest on the other.

It's not magic, but it's torture just as well.

In Lingus's view, the way the demons treat themselves is simply the same as the hunter training a falcon, which is based on destroying people's will to destroy, with deadly threats, step-by-step pressure and appropriate tolerance, which is difficult to adhere to.

In just one night, the prince was blood-red, sluggish, thirsty and hungry.

Vincent said very aggrievedly that he was also treated for staying up late, and he didn't have a comfortable chair to sit on.

When the sun rose in the morning and even the prisoners of war had rested for at least the night, Lingus was confronted with a large number of follow-up terms of the negotiations, and the handwriting on the paper seemed to dance before his eyes.

"This time, your country came to hunt down the thieves, and was warmly received by our side, and the entertainment expenses have corresponding standards every day, 100 gold coins per person per day for nobles, 30 gold coins per soldier per person, and 20 gold coins per person for the people......

The dawn sun shone through the crack in the tent door, and shone on the face of Lingus, who was already exhausted, and the prince's handsome face had long since lost its composure, and if it had not been for someone beside him with a sickle, he would have fallen asleep on the armrest of his chair.

"Gold...... It's still too much, and the pockets of the nobles have to be squeezed dry, unless they are allowed to use ...... land compensation." Lingus said absentmindedly, "I can't get it for you."

"If you don't have enough gold, you will reduce taxes!" Reduction of the commercial tax and the customs duty on goods of the merchants of the territory, the specific amount and the standard ......"

"I don't count the tariffs, but the nobles everywhere count......

"Almost all the members of their families are with me, and each of them declares his own family, receives a amount, and I distribute it to the merchants."

"No money...... Not enough for you orcs, dwarves and elves...... You can too."

"I can't afford to eat so much, and you can exchange goods and raw materials for it."

"Again, as I said before...... Let's pay it back with bones, there are so many of them, and there are ...... in all territories."

"The bones should be divided into colors, and no animal should be counted ..........

"Okay...... Agree, how much and as much as you want...... Hoo ......"

Vincent glanced at La Niña, and the magician once again cast an uplifting spell on the Prince, while also applying sensitive magic.

When the blade of the scythe scratched the prince's skin slightly, Lingus jumped up screaming as if he had been shocked by thousands of volts.

The demon who lacks virtue has used magic to wake him up five times in one night, and all of them were done by his fiancée.

She can do it too!

The haggard Lingus glanced at Vincent, who was calm and relaxed, his face full of resentment and unavoidable restraint.

"How about sending some land directly?" Vincent proposed a new plan, "Let my territory be connected to the Red Valley territory of Grand Duke Xia De, and if you lose less than a hundred miles, you can reduce the burden on everyone."

Let the demons' territories that are not adjacent to each other be connected?

Rao is Lingus was depressed and crumbling, and his eyes widened when he heard this suggestion, and his blood pressure was instantly full.

If the land of Herod were ceded from him, the main nobleman, the prince would not only be ruined, but would also face the fate of rebellion.

"Just kill me." Lingus said to himself, "And then fight the Second Great War with pleasure."

"So, you'd better accept this condition." Vincent said empathetically, "My uncle is desperate for the Territory...... Also, don't frighten people with war, so that no matter what our people do, Herodes is doomed to destroy the country again."

Just then, the downed orc general walked in outside.

"Your Excellency, Grand Duke Xia De is waiting for you outside."

"I'll come as soon as I go, La Niña, prepare breakfast for the Prince, and continue to talk after eating."

Holding back his sleepiness, Vincent walked out of the tent, and Ninia, who had long been unable to support herself, hurriedly followed, leaving the prince under the guard of a group of monsters.

Soon, Lingus heard the sound of the demons arguing outside, and one of them seemed to have a more old voice, as if he was reprimanding the younger members of his family.

Of course, this very special language is incomprehensible to Lingus.

The black silhouettes of the two Chaos Demons were shining in the tent by the sun, and their movements could be vaguely distinguished, one holding his hand in a tough manner, and the other was dissatisfied, but helpless.

It seems that there are also differences between the demons, but either way, it is greatly disadvantageous to Herode.

It seems that the old demon Grand Duke Xia De is in favor of the use of force, but this young demon prince is more like he just wants to extort a sum of money.

I hope it's not acting......

Lingus's mood was getting heavier and heavier, but the exhaustion was so exhausted that he could not even feel the pain, and by the time La Niña brought in the simple diet, Lingus had already fallen into a groggy sleep.

A look of pain flashed in La Nina's eyes, and she put her meal in the tent and went out without looking back.

"You go to sleep, your eyes are dark." Vincent told Ninia, "Don't be too tired, maybe war will break out at any moment."

"Yes, master." Ninia replied obediently, "I'll be back by noon, soon."

"The same goes for you." Vincent said to La Niña, who was following behind, "Go and rest, and if you need to recover your magic, you can go get medicine or magic stones."

"Master, I don't want to sleep," La Niña said in pain, lowering her eyes, "let me go to work, I don't want to think about anything when I'm tired and forget everything."

"I'll use hypnotic magic on you again." Vincent commanded, "Life has to go on, and the body can't cross first."

However, after the conversation with his uncle just now, he had already roughly guessed the reason why she was so uneasy.

Of course, this young lady has something to hate, but Vincent has no intention of criticizing her gaffe today.

"Master, I heard a few pieces of news last night, and I wondered all night if I was crazy, or if the world was crazy, and the Nightmare Beast obviously didn't come near me......

La Niña tore at her fiery red hair, as if she couldn't restrain her pain with pain, Vincent didn't stop her, just asked quietly.

"Is it the news that Duke Kitayama was killed in an attack on Gushan?"

"Yes, but ...... Not only."

La Niña paused slowly, her eyes welling up with tears, first acknowledging, then shaking her head.

"It's the Prince...... Lingus announced six days ago that he was engaged to the daughter of the Duke of the West."
