Chapter 749 A shocking offer

After that incident in the Earthen Temple, a day passed and we were brought to the castle.

I rested up after being drained by the Staff of Earth and I was able to move again.

However, there was still a drained feeling that filled me as I now carried the Staff of Earth on my back.

There was no need for me to do this, but I discovered something after recovering from being drained by the Staff of Earth.

It was that my mana pools were much larger than before.

It seemed that by draining myself of all my mana, I was able to increase the size of my mana pools.

Well, I had already discovered this before, but it seemed like the effects were much better when I used the Staff of Earth.

Was it because it was a relic from a god?

That was the only explanation that I could think of.

As for why I was carrying it on my back, I found that it also had an effect of increasing the size of my mana pool just by the natural draining effect that it had. Just carrying it on my back and letting it use my mana like this also increased the size of my mana pool.All latest novels at novelhall.com

Though it was less prominent than letting myself be completely drained by the Staff of Earth.

Still, it was better than collapsing and creating a scene.

This would allow me to slowly become stronger by building up the size of my mana pool.

Perhaps one day I'll be able to use the Staff of Earth without falling unconscious.

As for the reason why we were in the castle now, that was because there was something that I had to discuss with the Dwarven King. It was something that I had wanted to discuss a long time ago, but I never got the chance to discuss it with him.

There was no telling what was real based on just the information that he currently had.

Before he accepted this offer, the Dwarven King had a few more things that he needed to ask.

Seeing him nod in agreement, I continued by saying, "You should already know that I'm the one that controls the wyverns."

I once again paused to wait for his reaction.

The Dwarven King was surprised, but it was more that he was surprised that I would actually tell him this rather than being surprised by what I had said. After all, this was information that would be considered basic, so it wasn't strange if he already knew about this.

A nation survived on information gathered and a nation that wasn't able to collect this basic kind of information wouldn't be considered a proper nation.

It would be a nice piece of meat that would be torn apart by the other nations around it.

So of course the Dwarven King would already know about this.

After looking at me for a bit, he once again gave a nod in response.

But still he didn't say a thing as he waited to see what else I had to say.

So I calmly continued by saying, "Since I'm the one that controls the wyverns, I'm the one that can decide who I want them to follow. As such, I want to choose people that I can trust. I hope you understand what I mean."

The Dwarven King didn't seem to react at first when he heard this, but he eventually revealed a touched look as he said, "I'm honoured that you would think of me this way, but you should know that..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but it was clear what he was implying.

I gave a nod in response since I had already expected this.

While I didn't know much about the politics of the Dwarven Kingdom, I had my experience with what happened before. I knew at the very least that there was the chance that someone might try something.

So I just calmly said, "Unless I give the order, they will not follow anyone that I do not permit. I hope that you will choose your people wisely."
