Chapter 383

#383. I guess it’s time.

* * *

“Hmm.”

A leather skirt that fits snugly to the thighs.

A tank top with a slim waist.

Even a leather jacket draped only on the arm with the shoulder half exposed.

It seems that there is nothing to be ashamed of.

A blonde beauty looking around an exhibition hall full of all sorts of accessories in a casual outfit that reveals her voluptuous body.

Charlotte opened her mouth languidly.

“Did you say that < < LE & IN > > is already preparing to enter the Chinese Federation and the Holy League?”

“Yes My Princess.”

“Then the food blockade must be considered a failure.”

Elise flicked the cowboy hat she was wearing instead of answering.

?LE & IN?’s food supply is at a mysterious level.

Judging from the momentum so far, it was clear that the food crisis in the two countries would end the moment they entered the Commonwealth of China and the Holy League.

It means that the Black Dragon Clan and the White Dragon Clan can finally breathe.

At the same time, it meant that a counterattack was possible.

“Moreover, they are trying to take advantage of the opportunity we left out and take control of the financial market. After all, it’s like Li Qingyu.”

“It was so reckless.”

“Do you think so?”

“There’s no way a fistfight can replace our clan’s financial system.”

Ellis shrugged.

Fafnir’s elaborate financial system was perfected over decades by the Golden Dragon clan.

Aside from the technical stuff, the know-how to operate it wasn’t something that could be easily imitated even by the same Seven Dragons group.

Especially as there is one fatal loophole.

Even if it can replace Fafnir’s vacancy right now, in the long run, it will definitely reveal ruin.

“In the first place, I would not have any intention of replacing it. Imitation will be enough to get you over the hurdle right now.”

“Do you think the Black Dragon Princess is planning to hasten the decision?”

“There was no way that Li Qingyu didn’t know that he was at a disadvantage in the long run anyway.”

Charlotte laughed.

The White Dragon Clan, which was originally the weakest member of the Seven Dragons, and the Black Dragon Clan, which fell into disrepair and fell into disrepair recently.

Even when the two clans join forces, their potential is barely enough to surpass that of a single clan.

But what if a long-term battle is waged against the alliance of the Golden Dragon Clan, the strongest of the Seven Dragons, and the Silver Dragon Clan, which has long ruled the Russian Khanate, and the Red Dragon Clan, which has grown rapidly in the Iron Age?

As time goes by, the counterweight will tilt further.

In the end, there is only one way left.

whether to conciliate other clans.

or taken by force.

The only thing he could do was get a majority of the Seven Dragons’ stake before the counterweight tipped any further.

Knowing that fact, Elise spoke lightly.

“Then it would be best to crush ?LE & IN? before it grows any further.”

“Quit it. If you interfere too blatantly, it can actually annoy you even more.”

Charlotte shook her head.

I don’t know if it’s to the extent of withdrawing their respective companies.

A direct or indirect attack on the opposing company may turn the neutral Rose into an enemy.

Even if Rose falls, if it turns into a mud fight, Li Qingyu will mobilize the dark world without hesitation.

Besides, Infinite Guild is also involved in ?LE & IN?.

Starting with the Infinite Guild, if the other 7 guilds got involved in the conflict, there was a possibility that the current advantage would be overturned.

Even so, I had no intention of losing, but I had no intention of creating such a troublesome situation.

One of the most important reasons.

“Besides, I have no intention of wasting time either.”

right!

Shortly after Charlotte snapped her fingers.

Numerous ornaments floated up from the surrounding cabinets.

The moment I picked out and grabbed the one I didn’t like the most after spinning several trinkets in the air.

shiver.

– A change has occurred.

All sorts of expensive trinkets.

As if it had suddenly entered a furnace, it melted and began to scatter by material.

Precious metals such as gold and silver that liquefy and swirl.

Various jewels, etc., selected from among them and listed according to size and type.

Charlotte put her finger lightly on the materials that orbited around them in all their shapes and sizes, like satellites orbiting planets.

Sseuseuk.

Gold is spun like a ball of thread, and loops form the leaves and stems, and rubies form the petals.

The melted silver hardens into an intertwined shape of seven dragons, and seven types of jewels crumbled like sand cover the surface by color.

Various precious metals are intertwined around a thick diamond, and delicate patterns are engraved on its surface.

when such a short time has passed.

There was no raw material left there anymore.

A flower-shaped ring, a bracelet made of seven dragons, and a dazzling necklace.

Only the most beautiful and delicately processed ornaments were showing off their appearance.

“The important thing is not how much time you spend, but what results you achieve with that time, isn’t it?”

Although the materials used are the same.

Of course, even a first-class craftsman could complete a work that would take a long time in an instant.

Charlotte, who made jewelry of a quality that far surpasses the original one, had an alluring smile on her face.

It was not enough to solve the food crisis by joining hands with the Infinity Guild, so they even touched the financial market.

The struggle of the Black Dragon clan to overcome the overwhelmingly unfavorable situation was certainly admirable.

One problem.

While Li Qingyu was doing all sorts of things, Charlotte wasn’t idle either.

“You’re saying that no matter how hard the Black Dragon Princess tried, it would be too late.”

“Isn’t it natural? If they are getting ready to start the competition, we are already seeing the end.”

Like a phoenix who saw a turtle that was barely standing on the starting line even after crawling all over the place.

Charlotte asked casually with a smile that could not be more solemn.

“In that sense, are you done with Elise’s preparations?”

“of course.”

Seeing Elise pull out two tickets from her bosom as if she had been waiting, Charlotte smiled.

Then, wearing the jewelry she made herself, she opened her mouth in a pleasant voice.

“It will be a pretty interesting trip.”

* * *

“Haam.”

Yekathrice yawned lightly.

Then, after scratching his silver hair, which seemed to have been shaped by moonlight, he suddenly opened his mouth.

“Hey, can’t we solve it with our conversation? Why do they say winning without fighting is the best way?”

“…”

“Well, to be honest, I wonder if it’s a rumor made up by the Black Dragon clan. Because they always win in a fight with words. Oh, does this matter now?”

“….”

“Anyway, let’s talk about us in that sense. huh? I will ask you this.”

If you really want it, you seem to be willing to do aegyo.

Yekathrice, who clenched her hands tightly, made a cute expression while looking at her opponent with sparkling eyes.

However, the opponent remained silent without raising an eyebrow.

When Yekathrice covered her cheeks with both hands and pretended to be cuter, as if she had a problem with her conversion charms not working.

A cold voice was heard.

“Princess, there is a 100% chance that no matter how much you act cute, it will be useless.”

“Why doesn’t it work? He even acts cute with the cutest face in the world like this?”

A silver-haired maid with a silver prosthetic hand on her left arm.

Kana coldly explained the reason to Yekatrice, who was furious as if she had heard something unfair.

“Because he is already dead.”

“uh? okay?”

Take a moment to open your eyes.

Yekathrice kicked away the corpse of her opponent who was sitting on the ice while being chained.

Kwajijik!

“Ayy, I was just trying in vain.”

Even just a little while ago, at least it had a human form.

Suddenly, her entire body turned into a block of ice, throwing away the fragments of the shattered corpse.

Then, as I wiped my bloody hands on my coat, I looked back at Kana as if I had just remembered.

“By the way, wasn’t this the last kid who caught Kana?”

“you’re right.”

“Then there’s no one to torture anymore?”

“It is as you say.”

“…Then isn’t it troublesome?”

“I thought you wouldn’t know because he killed all the prisoners he captured alive, but it’s fortunate that he knows about 10%.”

He knew it would be difficult, but he seemed to know why he did it.

Catherine averted her eyes at Cana’s coldly questioning gaze.

“Because kids these days really have no guts. The kids I caught and tortured when I was young still endured a bit longer.”

“They died sooner. Only 80% of them told the princess what she wanted before she died.”

“…Kana has a really good memory. It was so long ago that I don’t remember.”

When it was pointed out that two out of ten died without ever having a chance to confess, Yekathrice turned her head away and murmured.

Kana coldly asked her.

“What are you going to do now?”

“If we just kill everything that has happened like this… it won’t work, right?”

“You’re doing it, it’s the princess’s heart, but if you just kill it without securing clear evidence or testimony, there will be a problem.”

“Um, that’s troublesome. I didn’t know it would be this difficult to open the mouth of a liberation brigade officer.”

“If it was easy to catch the tail, the swordsman would have 100% dealt with it instead of offering a bounty.”

“Is that too?”

Scratching your head with your bloody hands for a while.

Yekathrice said in a bright voice, clasping her palms together as if she had a good idea.

“Okay, now that it’s like this, let’s just move the plan forward.”

“…Are you serious?”

“Of course I am sincere.”

“Weren’t you interrogating the prisoner because you weren’t ready to carry out that plan yet?”

“Yeah, but I don’t have time anymore.”

“If you’re wary of the Black Dragon Clan, who solved the food shortage, you’ll still have time.”

“I’m not talking about Li Qingyu. It means Charlotte will start moving.”

“…”

“Of course, Charlotte is our ally, and I told you that I would cooperate for now, but…”

Yekathrice blurted out her words.

And he laughed.

“Isn’t it too much of a waste to hand over the eighth dragon psionic that even our ancestors couldn’t find?”

“…”

“More so unless it’s the eighth dragon psionic.”

A mischievous smile like a bad boy.

A playful voice, like a joke.

However, unlike her frivolous attitude, her cold eyes, which showed no sign of laughter, were telling.

That Yekathrice had meant to be like this ever since she decided to ally with Charlotte.

Well, it was natural.

They are the princesses of the Seven Dragons.

Because he was a descendant of a dragon who was obsessed with his treasure and territory.

In that sense, the alliance between the princesses was a relationship that was destined to break someday, and from the beginning it was like thin ice.

It’s just that the moment was pulled a little.

As an aide, she naturally knew that, so Kana calmly lowered her head.

“All right. If so, I will prepare a letter.”

“okay. Oh, I will use one, so leave it alone.”

“Are you going to send it to him?”

“huh.”

Just as grumpy as before, but unlike before, with a genuinely happy smile.

Yekathrice said in a cheerful voice.

“I think the time has come for my little brother to decide sides again.”
