Section 59 Negotiations
"Master, I don't recommend you do this......" Carrie said softly. "She's dangerous. In my database, she has more than 30 charges......"
"Charges?" Ashrufat asked rhetorically.
"Hmm...... I can't explain further, you don't have the relevant permissions...... But it's best not to let her in. She has a lot of power, and I'm not sure if it's a cunning trap. β
"Let her in. Ashrufat replied. There was a hint of uneasiness in his heart, but there was also another kind of excitement that he was eager to try. Although Carrie advises him to keep the door closed, he knows that he can't avoid the other party's request.
"The hosts. "Someone walked in from outside, and it was Scarlet. Although the castle is very large, with many floors above and below, it is actually inhabited only by Scarlet and Ashrufat. She lived here because she had nowhere else to go, second, she considered herself to belong to Aerufat and deserved to live here, and third, Carrie insisted that there should be a few guards in the castle. The undead are unreliable, because as long as they are a user of dark magic, they can be manipulated, and human soldiers are not suitable, that is, Scarlet is the most suitable.
However, although she accepted her identity, she looked at Ashrufat's gaze at the moment, and she didn't know why Lu Dao was filled with a strong hostility.
"What's the matter?" asked Ashrufat. He couldn't figure out for a moment whether Scarlet had come by accident or if Carrie had called her.
"The girls you want have been sent over, and I've placed them in the room below. β
"I'm ......" Eshurufat was about to say "we didn't want any girls," but Carrie interjected just in time.
"Master, I asked them to send it over. β
During this time, Ashrufat had completely entrusted Carrie with matters concerning internal affairs. Anyway, the population of Sivania was too small to provide him with an army, so he simply didn't care. But Carrie is very interested in this kind of tedious management work, and she loves it very much.
Carrie's approach is also interesting, as she left a device in the town halls of three cities that could automatically write and talk. When there was a task to be assigned, she had the device (which was a metal box-like thing that could be spit out by simply putting a prescribed size of paper in it) to convey her orders, ostensibly Eshurufat's orders, on paper. If a subordinate wants her to report something, she can talk to Carrie at the touch of a button - of course, Carrie somehow mimics Eshurufat's voice to talk to them. Using this method, Carrie was able to handle all parts of Sivania perfectly without affecting Eshurufat's freedom of movement.
"For what?" Ashruphat asked in his mind.
"Because you need a ...... I've already observed, there are six girls in total, all of them are beautiful, you can enjoy them however you want. You can go to the table or bed. Carrie replied solemnly.
"Don't make such jokes!" Now the clouds of war are looming, and the other side is a stronger enemy than ever. Under this pressure, some people may go out of their way to escape from reality, but Ashrufat is not that kind of person.
"I'm sorry, master. Carrie honestly apologized. "That's right, you have to take this offering. On the one hand, this is to alleviate the fear in the hearts of those who live in the city β to be honest, if you don't ask them for anything, it will cause them uneasiness and fear, which in turn will cause unnecessary trouble and even unrest. But if you take these maidens as a tribute, especially if you agree on the number and number of times, it will greatly alleviate their fear of you. They will feel that they are valuable to you, and you will not kill them easily. And it's good for your influence in the long run. β
"Just let them be there. Ashrufat replied distraughtly. "There's a guest at the door, you go pick it up. He said this subconsciously.
The gates of the castle slowly opened. Although it looks like this door is an ordinary hanging gate, Yilan Zhilu Road is not so simple. "Is it just a curved structure, and it's so convenient to have artificial intelligence......" she muttered to herself in a low voice.
Behind the door was a female guard wearing a suit of close-fitting armor. Although it is a bit strange to say that the armor is described as "close-fitting", this set of armor is half metal, and half is a kind of leather-like material with good elasticity, which is indeed attached to the body in an extreme way, setting off the graceful figure of the girl.
"Recon armor...... Looks like you know how to enjoy it......" Yilan looked at the indigenous girl in front of her. Her gaze rested on the female guard, her eyes narrowed. Somehow, she read some information from Scarlet that ordinary people can't read.
"Type 46 Biochemical Modification...... Hey, isn't this kind of modification causing brain abnormalities and mental instability? The data is imperfect, so only the test subjects ...... Cut...... It's nice to have artificial intelligence......"
The female guard made a "follow me" gesture and led the way. This attitude of not saying a word and being as cold as ice made Yilan feel very unhappy. So when she arrived at the door of the living room, when the female guard stopped, she ignored the other party's "please come in" gesture, but came to the other party. The female guard was half a head taller than Yilan, but Yilan approached the female guard and stared at the other party's face, making the female guard show obvious unease.
"What's your name?" Elan finally spoke.
"Scarlet. The female guard replied.
"So you could talk, I thought you were dumb!" "Very nice hair and good looks. I wouldn't mind adding you as a bed partner. She said in that very explicit tone.
"You...... What nonsense are you talking about!" As expected, the female guard named Scarlet had been pretending to be calm just now, but now there was an obvious panic immediately.
"I'm not talking nonsense, aren't you the slave girl of Ashrufat?" replied Ylan. "You don't have to argue, I'll know when I look into your eyes. He may not have time to enjoy you yet, but that will be sooner or later!" besides," she looked at her with a condescending manner, "and it would be better to pay more respect to me, for I may well be your future mistress." Even if I allow you to lie in the same bed with me, you're just a slave girl!"
After saying this, she didn't wait for Scarlet's reaction, turned her head and walked into the room.
Ashrufat sat on the couch in the middle of the room, looking at her with wariness and hostility. Now Ashrufat, dressed in full armor, with a helmet in one hand and the sword of withering across his knees.
I look even more handsome than on the screen, and the heart of the piano is really discerning! Ylang let out a chuckle, and the laughter was sweeter than a tinkling fountain. "Don't worry, I'm not here to fight. β
She raised her hand and spun her body in place, revealing that she was indeed not carrying anything suspicious. The only thing she could hold on her was a small pocket around her waist, but there was absolutely no room for a short dagger in her pocket. The clothes she wore were not heavy, her body was made of fabric, below her shoulders and below her knees was a light veil, and her arms and calves were clearly visible under the light veil. And this style is something that Ashrufat has never seen at all.
"If I'm still not worried, I'll have to take off all my clothes. Ylan's hand rested on the clasp on his chest, making a gesture to take off.
"Master, it looks like you're not carrying anything...... Carrie replied in her head. "In this castle, I can stop her magic teleportation. You can teleport your armor away, but you must not let your guard down. β
Ashrufat did as he was told.
Ylang let out a giggle again. "It's a bit of a gentleman. She said, then unceremoniously sat down on the couch opposite Ashrufat.
Now there is only a coffee table between the two. Eshurufat's eyes remained vigilant, his sword within reach, while Ylan looked around, looking at the room's dΓ©cor with a curious expression.
"It's really good, although it's a little lacking in the beauty of order, but it's still quite emotional. A minute or two later, Ylan commented.
"What are you doing with me?" Ashruphat remained unmoved, still staring at the other party.
"Oh, if I can speak, I'm here to negotiate. Ylan tilted her head and smiled at Ashrufat's face. Ashrufat was also looking at the details of the other party. His gaze was once again fixed on her flowing hair, which at first glance he thought was red. Now he discovered that the goddess's hair was neither red nor golden, but a perfect mix of two colors. His gaze was mesmerized. Ylang-ylang's hair was golden like an elf, reflecting the light of the room, and for some reason it was dizzying. Her eyes were the same, they looked blue, but when they looked closely, they were neither blue nor black, but pulsating and changing colors, colors and luster that he could not describe. Her petite, sweet, yet cherry-seductive red lips smiled. From her slender calves to her dazzling hair, her ivory body is as immature as an immature girl and as sexy as an adult woman, as perfect as a dream elf.
There was a silver bell-like laugh that pierced through his vertigo, and Ashrufat suddenly realized that he didn't know when he had given up his initial wary gaze, and was simply admiring the feminine charm of the other party.
"Negotiating, negotiating what?" he sat upright, driving all the thoughts out of his mind.
"Well, actually, I brought this thing. Ylang unfastened his pocket, took something out of it, and placed it on the coffee table. During the whole process, she moves extremely slowly to show that she has no other intentions.
"What is this?" asked Ashrufat. What Ylang placed on the coffee table was a small solid, metallic texture, with a strange and delicate shape, but it was impossible to see what it was for.
"It's a projection device. Ylang replied. "You can ask your AI to see if I'm lying. β
"She's not lying. In her mind's eye, Carrie replied, "But ......"
"If you can, Lord Scarlet, please put your hand on this thing, so we can talk in three ways. Don't worry about what's at stake, your AI will tell you. β
"Is this dangerous, Carrie?" Ashruphat asked in his mind, and received an immediate reply. However, he didn't know what the "three parties" meant in the other party's words.
He held out a hand and placed it on the thing with a slight hesitation. Then a small phantom appeared in the air above the coffee table, it was Carrie wearing a rabbit-eared hat. This time is different because the image no longer has the feeling of being "out of place". Carrie can now be seen by anyone.
