After some consideration, Vale decided to agree to Lady Eve's offer.
However, he had to lay some conditions.
"I will accept your offer, Lady Eve. My Merchant Organization will ally with you and your organization. I will not take your security services, but I will accept your Utara's Serpent Herb… I also have some terms. It is mostly related to the distribution of the Herbs… I will have someone discuss this matter with you privately."
Lady Eve nodded eagerly and spoke with excitement.
"Of course, Sir Immortal. I am looking forward to our cooperation. I will do my best to meet your expectations. You can trust me, Sir Immortal."
Vale gently nodded at this and replied with his deep voice. "Very well… I hope you will prove yourself worthy of my trust and my alliance."
Lady Eve smiled and said, "Thank you, Sir Immortal. I am honored and grateful to be part of your organization…"
Vale then turned his attention to the next representative, who had not made a request yet.
He introduced himself as Sir Geoffrey, the representative of the Combat Arts Faction or the Order of the Dragon Warriors.
The Order of the Dragon Warriors was a group of elite warriors who specialized in various forms of combat arts, such as martial arts, swordsmanship, archery, and more.
As a matter of fact, among all the Orders run by each Arcanist Faction, the Order of the Dragon Warriors was the most popular organization, as its presence always showed its wealth and power. They were always seen in public on many special occasions.
They were known for their skill, courage, and honor, and they would always deal with evil Arcanists who couldn't be handled by the special police force.
In short, while the Vessels of the Dark Faction doesn't have a good image to the public, the Dragon Warriors have an impressive reputation with the public and they're known to have brave fighters who would never back down from a challenge.
Sir Geoffrey was a tall and muscular man with a stern face and a scar on his cheek. He wore a simple leather armor and a sword on his belt.
Although he wasn't the leader of the Order of the Dragon Warriors, he was one of the strongest in the organization.
Sir Geoffrey's request to the Immortal was simple and direct.
He wanted to challenge the Immortal to a duel!
"Sir Immortal, I respect your strength and your deeds... I have no other request but to test my skills against yours. I want to fight you in a fair and honorable duel. I want to see how far I can go against you. I want to learn from you and improve myself. I hope you will accept my challenge, Sir Immortal."
Before Vale could even utter a reply, another representative spoke up.
He was Sir Roland, the representative of the Knights Faction or the Order of the Faith Guardians.
"Hmm?" Vale looked at the man with a mixed feeling.
'If I'm not mistaken, this guy is allied with the Holy Arts Faction that waged war against the Dark Arts Faction.' Vale thought as he couldn't help but think that this person was a problem.
The Order of the Faith Guardians was a group of devout warriors of the Knights Faction.
Sir Roland was a handsome and noble man with a blond hair and a blue eyes. He wore white armor, but his whole body was covered by a robe that hid it.
Sir Roland's request to the Immortal was the same as Sir Geoffrey's. He wanted to challenge the Immortal to a duel.
"I hope you can also accept my challenge, Sir Immortal."
Vale listened to both requests, and he was amused. He did not expect that two of the representatives would want to fight him. They were indeed different from the Organizations that wanted some tangible benefits.
'Mhmm… They must be looking for something…' Vale mused as he felt that they have other motives.
Did they want to prove themselves? Did they want to impress him? Perhaps they want to learn from him? Or did they have some other hidden agenda?
He doesn't know.
Nonetheless, having a duel doesn't seem that bad considering their strength.
Vale decided to agree to their requests but with a condition.
"I can tell that both of you are strong. I will accept your challenges, Geoffrey and Roland. I will fight you in a fair and honorable duel. I will teach you and improve you. But I have a condition: you will have to win against a friend of mine living in this castle… You can even try to kill him in this duel. Once you've beaten him, we can arrange another date for our duel so you can have some rest... Lastly, you must give him something in return. After all, he can't work without being paid."
Sir Roland and Sir Geoffrey happily agreed to Vale's condition.
They were eager to fight the Immortal and see his skills.
"We accept your condition, Sir Immortal. It's only natural that you test our skills first to see if we deserve to duel against you."
The others in the room were curious and excited to see the duels against the Immortal's friend.
"Can we have the honor of watching this duel?" Miya suddenly asked.
"I do not mind." Vale answered with a smile. He then sent Chad a message through telepathy explaining what was about to happen.
He decided to send Chad to fight the representatives, instead of himself. He wanted to test Chad's abilities and see how he would win against these two.
Finally, he also wanted to give Chad a chance to improve himself and gain some battle experience.
It didn't take long before he arrived. As soon as Chad appeared in the reception hall, Maya, who was disguised as Miya from the Church of the Lord of the Secrets, was shocked.
'Chad Bulmung?! What is he doing here?!' Maya Featherstar's eyes widened, but she didn't dare to make a sound.
She was still in disguise, and she had two other elders watching her actions…
She could only stare at the Dragon Disciple as she wanted to ensure that she wasn't making a mistake!
