It was him! But his voice… It was his yet it looked like it got many years younger than what he was.
Looking at him from such close distance made me inwardly sigh. He got such a massive upgrade in everything, vibe, demeanour, strength, and even his soul and voice.
Even his age got younger! Damn! How could this be even possible?!!
“It’s ok,” I waved my hand as if I wasn’t envious of him, “but I heard a few disturbing rumours about what you did. Was it you?”
“S… Sorry lord, I was just hungry and didn’t want to disturb you during your training. I ate souls from other races than yours.”
Well… At least he was considerate towards that point. Still… What he did… Just one breath… Just one roar… Damn!
What a fierce dude he was!
As I jumped over my shock from what he did and the transformation he had, I started to think about something else.
He was mine! That scary dude over here was mine!
“So you got enough for today?” I asked and he nodded.
“Thanks lord for showing mercy.”.
“It’s nothing, I got these races at first to harvest souls from them,” I casually said, “tell me more about your power. Did you restore it fully?”
“Almost close to seventy percent.”
Damn! All this and this dude wasn’t even in his prime? Damn!
“Do you need more energy? I can get you more.”
“No lord, I feel it’s not the issue of energy,” he slowly shook his head, as his blazing orange fire swayed from right to left.
“Then what?”
“I absorbed a ton of energy, from what you provided and from the world here. In fact if not for the world here, I’d have ended up with a much weaker form of me.”
“I can tell that,” what he did here was considered scary indeed. I couldn’t even cause such a scene after two months of training.
Recalling that made me instantly scared!
“Tell me… How long did I take training here? How many days?”
“Days? Lord… you stayed here for two weeks already!”
“Dammit!”
I knew it! I bitterly sighed before hurriedly checking the messages.
As expected! My message record was filled with distressed messages from Silverlining, plus many messages from the lady nymph.
She got scared as well! She knew such a deal we had to strike was the last. She mistook my absence as my leave from our deals.
[Sorry, I got into a sudden training session] I was sent to Silverlining first.
[Damn Hye! Do you want to kill me or something? Didn’t you say you are going to wait for me?]
[Sorry about that] I knew it was my fault for doing all this mess. [Are the offers ready to sign?]
[Yes! They are! And for all the sake of heavens, gods, or what you hold dear to yourself, please don’t vanish this time until we end this deal!]
[I also want more warriors…]
[First let’s conclude the sovereign’s deal, or my head will be the price for all this delay!]
[Ok!]
He was really scared and I got nothing to object or argue about here. I waited and three contracts came in the next minute.
I read through the content of the contracts and found no issue in them. They included all the details we agreed upon before, and so I signed the three right away.
They were already signed by the three sovereigns. So when I did, the contracts became valid right away.
[It’s done] I sent it to him, [Now can we talk about the warrior deals?]
I got enough warriors from him. But after seeing this souler general, I wanted more of them.
[What do you need? Just tell and I’ll provide]
[I want soulers]
[Damn! More soulers?!!! Are you out of your mind or what? Isn’t that scary general dude enough for you?]
[No, I need more. Common soulers this time] I knew I was going to end the deal with the Bringold impact. So it was just right to start securing another route for my soulers.
Or else I’d be stuck in the same deal with that greedy and unjust impact!
[Common soulers are easy to secure, but how much are we talking about here?]
[As much as you can get me. You know, I won’t stop at any amount or price]
[Sure, I got you man. Ok, I’ll first tell my sovereigns about the good news. Ah, when do you want your things delivered?]
I knew if I gave him any date during these days then I’d fail to meet it.
So I’ll have to wait until later.
[Let it be when I tell you. I have a big fight coming up, and have to train and get stronger fast]
[Stronger? In my eyes you are doing great! You need nothing like this]
[Hahaha! Thanks, but I’d prefer to train]
[Sigh! Ok, good luck then]
I closed the chat with him to start another with the lady nymph.
[Sorry, was quite busy lately]
[Before you’d be the one asking and bothering me with messages. But now… Sigh! Ok, I got the list of the soulers, races, resources, and humans for you to check]
[Ok, send these over]
She even prepared materials… Damn! She went all out!
But when I saw the list, I couldn’t help but sigh.
Even after all this time, she only managed to get me close up to eight hundred million humans and slightly over three billion resources.
The gap between the two impacts was clear from this list alone! I thought I’d have to peel my skin for such a deal, but it wasn’t the case.
[Send everything over here] I decided to receive all the things here before resuming my training again.
[Cool. by the way, what will you order next?]
[Let me think and tell you] I didn’t hurry to end all the ties with her before checking what Silverlining would bring for me.
The next ten hours I got myself busy receiving races and humans, signing contracts for all, and arranging them to work here.
