Invited the black dragon who ruined his good deeds to discuss
Yunokia looked directly at Croside and even doubted whether she had heard correctly. If she hadn't learned later that the person who restrained the black dragon that night was Croside's subordinate, Yunokia would have thought it was him. The black dragon prince was possessed by the power of the gem and was ready to break the agreement and openly challenge himself.
"Was he sent here by your father?"
"Obviously~ no! Otherwise I wouldn't have extended the invitation to him."
Croside waved his hand and then said: "It should be that he is a stray black dragon like me. He made some friends outside and was attracted by the power of the gem and came to this city. Of course, he does not rule out the possibility of being behind the scenes. Someone is instructing him, but it is definitely not my father who sent him."
"How do you conclude that he has nothing to do with your father?"
"No one in the Black Dragon clan dares to insult the Dragon King unless he has made up his mind to completely cut off from the clan."
Closide smiled. The black dragon who called himself Zero had already explained the situation in words. At least in Closide's opinion, Zero's tone was full of disdain for the Black Dragon King, which was obviously towards his father. How could his father send a black dragon to this city who was dissatisfied with him? Moreover, Celatia had just arrived before. The Black Dragon Clan seemed to be anxiously looking for something and had invested its main energy elsewhere. It was impossible to go back and let people return to the free city.
After receiving Croside's assurance, Eunocia finally fell silent.
"So would you like to talk to him?"
"How do you want me to talk to him?" Yunokia said still a little hesitantly: "The culprit who obstructed me and failed, Croside, even if he is a member of your tribe, you are too biased towards him. Bar."
Croside shook his head regretfully: "As long as it is the person who hinders our plan, I will never be biased no matter who it is, but now a demon master is lurking in the city, and there is also a man with strange power. "Young man, they may summon an army of demons at any time to cause destruction to the city. I think the top priority should be to find each other out first rather than start a civil war between each other."
"If the black dragon hadn't intervened at that time, we wouldn't be in this situation now."
"That's why you should talk to each other. Although Black Dragon is also a transcendent, at least we understand the rules of the game and will not do anything that breaks the rules of the game. But demons are another matter. How can they cause so much damage to them? That’s how it will come.”
These words made Yunokia silent for a while. The Free City was her foundation. As a devil, she had no place on this continent, let alone betrayed the devil master. Then I'm afraid that returning to the Twisting Nether is impossible. However, rather than returning to the Twisting Nether and regaining his demonic nature, I would rather die in the main material plane┉┉
The Free City must not be destroyed, especially at this time when its long-term plan has gradually unfolded. The layout that has been planned for thousands of years has gradually reached the point where it is today. There must not be any problems at this time.
Closide turned his attention to Philolai: "What do you think?"
Philolai couldn't help but smile bitterly. Her status in this conference room was considered to be the lowest. Neither Yunokia nor Croseid were beings that the vampires could provoke.
"My opinion┉┉" Philolai paused for a moment and said in one breath: "Looking from an objective point of view, sister Yunokia should not be arguing with that black dragon now."
Closide nodded slightly, and Eunogia behind the gauze curtain looked at Philolai meaningfully.
As if he could feel the piercing gaze behind the gauze curtain, Philolai said with an apologetic look but still said with certainty: "Just like Mr. Closide said, that the black dragon is willing to come to negotiate, it means that he at least He is also willing to abide by the rules of the game. As an extraordinary person, he also understands that it is difficult to fight against this city on his own. Besides, sister Yunokia, the other party obviously seems to know your details very well, and even more about you. You also have a certain level of understanding of the gem you desire, but you don’t know the other person’s identity at all. From the perspective of our vampire family, unilateral transparency is the worst thing. Since he is willing to talk, then talk to him. This way you can get more Get some information about him.”
Eunogia was silent for a moment: "Unless he swears to give up that gem, he will always be regarded as my enemy."
"Don't let the negotiation fail at the beginning." Closide looked at Yunokia and said with a rather surprised tone: "You are a little panicked, Yunokia, this is not like the wise person I usually know. businesswoman."
"It's so annoying~ It's so annoying~ Okay, I agree, let's talk to him first."
Finally, Yunokia couldn't bear it and shouted.
Closide nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's talk here today while we are all here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open. Under Yunokia's angry and somewhat surprised gaze, Lelouch, who was dressed the same as that night, slowly walked in. Almost instantly, Yunokia reflexively recalled the opponent's obstruction to her, especially the punch on her face. She almost wanted to immediately raise her staff and pour out all the spells without mercy. , but reason finally defeated anger.
Lelouch, who was invited, glanced at the three people present. Now they should be the representatives of the power of extraordinary people in this city.
"Thank you for the invitation, Your Highness Croseid!" Lelouch said in a neither humble nor condescending manner. Although Yunokia's angry gaze could be felt through the gauze curtain, at least the legal businesswoman had no plans to take action for the time being.
Philolai looked at Lelouch and frowned: "Isn't it too rude of you to come in wearing a mask?"
"If you think so, I'm sorry. I believe that my true appearance should not be the focus of the discussion this time, but my position, right?" Lelouch used the ring to change his appearance and voice, but it was still revealed The breath of the black dragon came out.
"That's right! Your position is the focus of this discussion, Zero. Everyone has their own secrets. I don't force it and I don't care who your true appearance is. Please sit down!" Closide obviously agreed. In this view, in fact, it doesn't matter if the black dragon in front of him takes off his mask. Since the other party can pretend to be the same as an ordinary human that night, it is easy to slightly change his face. Instead of wasting time on such trivial matters, it is better to get to the point directly.
Philolai didn't say anything anymore. At least this time, she did feel the aura of a giant dragon, especially a black dragon, on the other person.
The first time he came to this mansion as a guest, and the second time he came as someone who had been questioned. Lelouch couldn't help but concentrate. This is Eunogia's territory, this palace. The mythical locks and magic circles arranged inside and Yunokiya's own strength are enough to kill a giant dragon without a place to bury it. Although Croside extended an invitation to him for the sake of his 'common people' and guaranteed safety in some aspects, it did not mean that he could bargain with Eunogia without restriction. How could he resolve conflicts with the three giants? Yunokia still wants to deal with the contradiction between the entire alliance of extraordinary beings, which is what she needs to do now.
After Lelouch sat down, he collected his thoughts and said, "First of all, I want to make my position clear. I have no intention of having any disputes with you, let alone being enemies with you."
"Your behavior that night was really unreasonable!"
"I'm sorry~ Miss Yunokia, I made a request for negotiation at that time, but you took the initiative to attack first. To be fair, I was only acting in self-defense."
Yunokia gritted her teeth: "That's enough! Explain your purpose Black Dragon, who is your behind-the-scenes instigator, and where did you get the news about the gem?"
"This is a negotiation, not a one-sided interrogation, Miss Yunokia!"
Lelouch's answer made Yunokia even more angry, but Croseid recognized this view and stopped Yunokia who seemed to be about to explode.
In Croside's opinion, the black dragon in front of him should not be old in terms of age. It is difficult to imagine that a black dragon at this age would leave the clan alone and go to the outside world to develop alone. The black dragon is not welcomed by both the Holy City and the Holy See. Moreover, the Black Dragon Clan itself is short of manpower after the war. Except for Rogge, who is already an adult and cannot survive in the clan, Black Dragons of this age group should not be allowed to go out alone. And the black dragon named Zero in front of him is obviously better than Rogge. Let’s not talk about the power. Just accepting his invitation and daring to come here alone to discuss the courage and courage are inferior to that guy who only knows how to use strength to defeat the weak. Much stronger.
After calming down the angry Eunogia, Closide said to the point: "So Zero! Is your purpose in coming to this city just for the gem on that boy?"
"┉Yes, this is also my only mission."
Unexpectedly, Croseid was so direct. Lelouch thought for a while and decided to show off his cards directly. Even if he denied it and went around in circles, there was no point. In many cases, extraordinary people were not interested in concentrating on conspiracy like mortals. More They will not be stingy with the use of force. On the contrary, it is their nature to overwhelm everything.
Yunokia's expression became ugly. If she hadn't been worried that Croside was still here, she would have activated the mystery lock and killed this bold black dragon right here.
"You need that gem?"
"Strictly my employer needs it."
"who?"
"Sorry~ According to the contract, I am obligated to keep my employer's identity confidential."
Yunokia said impatiently at this time: "Are you hired? That's good! Tell me how much the person who hired you paid you, I can pay you double."
Generally speaking, problems that can be solved with money are not big problems. Yunokia herself does not have to start a fight with a dragon directly. As long as he is willing to accept this condition, stop and leave.
"Wealth makes people excited, but I also have my principles, Miss Yunokia. Breaking the contract is not among my principles."
Lelouch's tone seemed very calm, and he continued before Yunokia's breathing became louder: "There is no conflict between us, and the source of the conflict is only that gem. I do have a compromise plan. Are you interested in listening?”(~^~)
