Chapter 88:
Chapter 88
The realization that Amukhan was a subordinate of someone was a huge shock.
Who the hell is this guy?
Amukhans Lord?
Helmuts soldiers, Magrittes army, and the warriors of the Kerrates were bewildered and confused by the situation.
But even that was nothing compared to the shock the Kongurat felt.
C-Chief!
Chieftain, what the hell are you doing?
The warriors of the Kongurat tribe were shocked and appalled by Amukhans abrupt behavior.
Chief, why is the Chief bowing to the Continental!
Explain, Chief!
The Kongurat warriors, swarming like bees, demanded an explanation from Amukan.
Everyone be quiet!
Amukhan bellowed.
I know you are all confused! But accept it, I have been defeated by him back on the mainland, and I have been granted the honor of being his subordinate!
Amukhans shocking revelation left the Kongurat warriors speechless.
When the Lord heard of our plight, he took it upon himself to come to the aid of the Kongurat tribe, and behold the result: He managed to mobilize the surrounding forces with a brilliant plan, and defeated Togril with his might! We, the Kongurat, should know the grace of our Lord!
When the warriors of the Kongurat tribe heard Amukhans words, they were initially dumbfounded and didnt fully digest his words.
But only for a moment.
Warriors of the Kongurat tribe, listen!
Amukans mother, Merkit, stepped forward.
This is the man who put my son, your chieftain, under his command! This is the man who saved our tribe from certain death! Therefore, he is the true chieftain of the Kongurat tribe!
Then, one by one, the warriors of the Kongurat tribe began to nod in agreement with Merkits words.
Merkit is an Iron Lady who has led the tribe since the death of Amukans father, the previous chieftain.
She is now recognized as the spiritual leader and wisdom of the Kongurat, so her words carry great weight.
The result.
I see the Chieftain!
Greetings, Chief!
Hail the chief!
The warriors of the Kongurat tribe bowed before Otto.
C-Chieftain? Suddenly?
Otto hadnt really thought about absorbing the Kongurat tribe, but he was a little taken aback when he was suddenly made chieftain.
I was just mad about the trade route incident, so I came here to get revenge ?
Then.
My soldiers!
Not to be outdone, Helmut also stepped forward.
The same goes for the Kongurat tribe, the reason we were able to regain our freedom! It is only because of him that we were able to defeat the armies of the Magritte Kingdom and free ourselves from servitude! We too must not forget his grace!
With that, Helmut walked over to Otto and dropped to one knee.
If you will accept, I will give you my loyalty.
What?
Give me a chance to repay the favor.
Uh thats..
No way.
Helmuts expression darkened.
Do you hesitate to trust me because there was a time when I betrayed my liege? Of course, that could be the case. It is not an easy task to trust someone who has once betrayed their liege.
Oh, no, thats not it!
Otto waved his hands in the air in exasperation.
Its just that Im surprised! Startled! Because all of a sudden youre saying.
So you accept?
Of course.
Otto smiled.
Is this happening?
Helmut was a very difficult character to have as a subordinate.
His rebellion was sparked by the abusive exploitation of the Magritte Kingdom, making him almost impossible to make a vassal.
However, it was no exaggeration to say that there was no more reliable commander if Helmut was his subject.
<The Priamos Terracotta> was a holy item that Togril possessed from the beginning, and it helped him tremendously in raising horses, the core of his cavalry.
Togril was able to breed a large number of horses in a short period of time with this artifact, which allowed him to develop them at a tremendous rate.
This was a huge advantage, as it allowed him to increase the number of cavalry faster than other lords.
The problem is the shape.
The overly detailed and exaggerated depiction of the horses genitals makes the viewer feel uncomfortable.
Since its a symbol of fertility and abundance, its natural to emphasize that particular part.
You dont have to give me anything, just make a big new ranch and put it there. Make sure no one steals it.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Its embarrassing, get rid of it.
Even though it was a holy relic, the statue was so embarrassing that Otto couldnt help but want to get it out of his sight.
And I found the people responsible for the incident you mentioned.
Really?
We caught them all and put them in jail.
The incident he was referring to refers to all those who participated in the attack on Ego.
Lock them up and execute them in front of the bereaved family. It wont ease their grief, but at least theyll get some closure.
Leave it to me.
Amukan grinned eerily.
The methods of execution by the nomads were incredibly varied and gruesome.
Without a doubt, the warriors of the Kerrates tribe who participated in the event would suffer and die a miserable death in the most horrific ways in this world.
What do you say, lets make an example of the fate of those who mess with the merchants of Ego, shall we?
Otto asked, looking back at the Goblin Trader Ego.
Of course.
Ego nodded.
I didnt realize youd go to such lengths, Your Majesty. Youve done so much for us.
Youre welcome, were in this together.
Today, the Kingdom of Lota relies on trade for most of its economic power.
And Ego was in charge of the kingdoms trade business, which was practically a state-owned enterprise.
Otto cant help but see the attack on the merchants as an attack on the kingdom of Lota.
Your Majesty, I had no idea that Your Majesty Otto would achieve such great achievements.
Ego looked genuinely impressed.
Who knew that he would go beyond mere revenge and take control of both the Magritte Kingdom and the Haver and Khabar Region?
Your Highness, I have prepared a small gift for you.
A quest window popped up in front of Ottos eyes.
[Notification: You have completed the <Blood Vengeance> quest!]
Here you go, Your Majesty.
What is this?
Otto asked, looking expectantly at the small box Ego handed him.
Ill tell you when you open it yourself.
Is that so? Thump, Thump Thump huh?
Otto opened the box and was shocked.
Youre giving me something so valuable?
And you know what it is?
Of course I know.
How is your majesty so knowledgeable? I was surprised to hear that.
Thats not the point, is it okay to give me this precious thing?
The reason Otto said that was because what was in the box was incredibly valuable.
The effect of this ruby ring, the so-called Last Heart, was resurrection.
[The Last Heart]
For the most precious life in this world!
