Chapter 398 A Trade With The Hostile Allies

”An army of three million soldiers, huh…” Robin mumbled and slowly rubbed his chin, ”I distributed all the Energy Pearls I brought from Nihari at the Green Hill Meeting, I think they were about five million or so... is there enough Energy Pearls left to transport that many individuals?”

”Those five million did not remain in our pockets, they contributed to the upbringing of a huge number of knights and saints, I doubt that even a quarter of that number remained... Secondly, how much does transportation cost per person to that planet anyway?” Billy furrowed his eyebrows and asked

”I donʼt know, The All-Seeing God did not tell me this detail, and I forgot to ask him, And I think I wouldnʼt have asked even If I remembered, both of us were too angry to prolong the conversation further... Anyway, it depends on the distance between us and that place, but precaution is a must, We canʼt risk having in problem with the Space portal during the transportation process... Amon!” Robin raised his eyes and looked at the goblin standing beside him

”Yes, Your Excellency?” Amon took a step closer and asked

”I want you to start a business with the Nihari Union Sect, sell them talismans from the new designs I gave to the factories, and sell them at the highest possible price! I want you to save at least 10 million energy coins within the next month at any cost.”

”This…” Amon was stunned when he heard the number, this amount of pearls could shake the foundations of any large tribe in the Nihari world, ”Do you think they would agree?”

”I gave them the entire eastern region. If they cannot provide this small quantity of pearls within a month, then they are not worth all my hard work! I know they can do it, but if they do not agree, tell them that we will sell those talismans in the southern region. This will get them back to their minds.” Robin shrugged and replied indifferently

”As you wish, Your Excellency, and if they refuse further then I will take the Demon army and destroy that Sect for you and bring you its entire treasury!” Amon Proudly slammed on his chest

Aside from the fact that the Space Portal is located in the heart of Hope City and that he can deploy a huge number of troops in the heart of the city before anyone notices, the Demons really did reach a frightening level of strength during the war on Planet Jura, Declaring war on the Sect wasnʼt that far fetched in their any more

They ate their fill as if they would never eat again, Although the war on Planet Jura was not related to them, they wished for a war like this every day!!

Robin rested his back on his chair for a moment, then replied, ”...No need, itʼs not time yet. If they refuse, carry out your threat and go sell talismans and weapons to the southern region.”

Then he gestured beside it, ”Oh, right, take him with you on your trip to Nihari.”

”Hmm?” Amon looked towards the place that Robin points to, and found Theo standing, also puzzled by the decision, then asked in astonishment, ”Him?!”

”What, do you have a problem?”

Amon quickly waved both his hands, ”No, no, Your Excellency, how dare I question your decision? But the gravity there is just too…”

”I did not forget about that, I left a new design for a bracelet with Runes from the gravitational path in the Ancestral Continent Rune Academy. After activating it, the effect of the bracelet will be sufficient to reflect the effect of gravity on any other planet and make it equal to gravity on the planet Jura. I believe that the first batch will be ready this week.” Robin replied with ease

”Oh? Doesnʼt that mean you can send the human army to Nihari too?!” Amon asked quickly, with excitement in his voice. It was clear that the Demons had not forgotten what the giants had done to them for hundreds of thousands of years...

”...All I want is to establish a trade that benefits both parties. Donʼt let your imagination go too far. You and the rest of the Demon kings will have your own stuff to do and you are not used to these trading affairs anyway, so I thought of leaving it in the hands of the humans.” Robin chuckled upon hearing this and then added, ”You will take a few commerce experts from the Burton family alongside Theo and a few men of the Shadow Swords to protect them, all you have to do this time is to introduce them to the Sect Elders, then it will be a direct transaction between them and you can get out of the equation, understood?”

”Oh... Alright...” Amon replied with obvious disappointment

”Good, you can disperse now, letʼs meet again in my imperial city a month from now.” Robin clapped and announced

”I hear and obey.” Amon bowed slightly and jumped off the balcony, quickly disappearing in the same way he appeared, Theo also took a step back and merged with his shadow, and disappeared.

As for Billy, he remained seated for a few seconds, staring at Robin with half-closed eyes.

”Oi little brother, Can I help you with something there? Do you want your cake back or something?!” Robin raised his eyebrows and asked sarcastically

Billy didnʼt reply immediately, he just kept staring at Robin as if he was trying to figure something out, after a few seconds he finally gave up and spoke, ”Can I help YOU? Do you have anything you want to tell me? You donʼt have to take it all on your shoulders, you know...”

”…No, everything is fine, go now and facilitate the transfer of the Demons to their new home,” Robin replied slowly and looked toward the horizon

Billy looked at him for a few more seconds, with apparent disappointment this time, and then slowly stood up and moved towards the door muttering, ”As you wish my friend, as you wish...”
