Chapter 256
Ch 256 – Battlefield II
I have cold sweat running at my back from the pressure emitted by him .
“Protecting him? Have you protected those who attacked your territory?”
“At first, of course, I captured him as a prisoner of war . . . But when you became king . . . It was hard for him to survive . -I really depend on you- he said while in tears . So understand my position . My country and territory could be made responsible if something happened to him . ”
"I'm just afraid of the power you hold with him in your hands Ms Iris”
"No, no . . . Be at easy… You mentioned earlier that you are now the king of the Acacia kingdom . . . Why did you become king? There are still successors to the throne . "
For the first time, Kaadir changed the complexion .
“… It’s better to stop pushing me to the edge . I’m willing to move my country against this territory if not . ”
"Oh dear……"
I smiled deeply .
At last he seemed to have had a fun reaction, and it seemed that he was finally breaking his charade .
“You are terrible . . . Do you immediately appeal to obtain what you want in such ways?”
I stopped there, but my intention was communicated to him .
“My previous words… Don’t take them into account … It was not my intention to attack your territory . ”
I don't speak directly . This is a negotiation . So there will be no further pursuit on the issue .
"If I'm honest, it doesn't matter to me which king rules your country . Regardless of whether the first prince who favored me takes the throne . Regardless of being our neighbor country across the sea, it doesn't matter if you create a situation where you move the army . I'm ready to defend my territory until the end, try it if you want . ''

The elder man behind moved slightly .
Tanya's face had no expression .
My mother next to me still had a beautiful smile .
When I asked him what decision has he made, he suddenly laughed out loud .
" . . . No, it's scary after all… I won’t fight with you . "
He moved his hand to stop the elderly man from moving .
“In other words, is it okay for me to be a king then? What do you want?”
" . . . double the amount of money presented . Non-aggression and trade treaties with this country, Tasmania Kingdom"
“Let's approve the amount then . ”
If we look at those who attacked the Duke of Almeria this time, their attitudes
looked like those of the Second Prince entourage in our country . . . . so, it’s better for us if Kaadir takes the throne .
In other words, if you say that what happened was good, it was a good thing, but the culprit behind the attack has been uncovered, and their goods have been confiscated .
It seems that he was trying to pay compensation for the confiscated assets and the war scars on the territory, but the confiscated items alone didn’t amount so little . He offered around the 40% of their price .
The amount I asked for would be acceptable if I were in his position, due to the current circumstances of the Acacia kingdom that I had asked Tania's subordinates before .
To see his reaction, my prediction was probably correct .
"And then the national non-aggression treaty and the trade treaty . . . rudely asking, do you have the authority to sing the treaties?"
“To be exact, I’m an acting lord”
" . . . excuse me . So you have the authority?"
"Would you please sign immediately Kaadir?"
" . . . I can sign it depending on the content . "
“Now please confirm the documents . ”

At the same time I say so, Tanya gives them three documents .
One is a master's book of this country that has been signed by Dean and Leticia . It's like leaving me full power in discussions with the Kingdom of Acacia .
The second and third pages are written about the non-aggression treaty and trade treaty .
" . . . I was surprised . No way they gave you the documents of the country . "
He laughs with a muffled voice . He was not so upset .
"Well, negotiating with Kaadir was good . . . . Because there was not much rudeness . "
"Hahaha . . . My apologies for my jesting before . My real intention is be on good terms with this country and territory . Now I'll check the terms here and sign if there are no problems . "
He immediately read the book from start to end and signed it on every page .
" . . . So fast . "
"Because it's reasonable . . . If It had something strange, I would immediately call off this treaties . "
"Thank you"
I also sign the documents he signed .
And I handed one of those documents, signed by both of us to Kaadir, and handed one to Tanya to store here .
"Now, let's pass on to the following demands"
"Oh . . . I haven't said all my demands yet . "
To those words, Kaadir was stunned for a moment and then exhaled .
“It’s pretty stupid to protest . So what is it you want now?”
“One more thing . . . . I would like you to reduce the taxes over my products by 5% and that would be only for my territory’s products”
"This is . . . this is also a big blow to our current situation financially . "
“Is that so? If your country agrees, this side will reduce the taxes on the imported items . ”
Kaadir closes his mouth and meditates with his eyes .
A momentary silence came .
No one in this place spoke to avoid disturbing his thoughts .
