Odyssey of the Blind God-Chapter 522 Announcement

Nial was not really scared of the government anymore.

In fact, he hadn't been scared of them earlier either. It was just that Nial liked to be a little bit more careful.

That was not necessary after what had happened in the last few months, especially since he did business with the rebels of the Shelturion race, and now that the Linaton left the human shelters.

The only issue that was left behind was how to solve the Soul Contract scheme with the Linaton race. As per Nial's understanding, he could tell that the Linaton would disappear and return in a few years when the period of the Soul Contracts would come to an end.

And that time, the Linaton would end up taking everyone, who was unable to reach the Deux-rank which was one of the conditions mentioned in the Soul Contract.

And that was where Nial's plan came into play.

If the Linaton weren't willing to terminate the Soul Contract, one could either pay the fee for breaking the contract or reach the Deux-rank within four years.

Accumulating a small fortune, or reaching the Deux rank within a few years was not easy to achieve, but Nial gave such people a special offer.

If the somewhat talented victims of the Soul Contract scheme were willing to join his Onyx Association or Orion Artisan Guild, they would be given a copy of the Mana Breathing technique or a copy of another technique such as a technique related to forging or concocting.

Nial gave the victims the opportunity to make up for their stupidity by extending a helping hand. He would give everyone the means to solve their problems on their own. Nial didn't plan on rescuing everyone and being known as the knight in white shining armor if they themselves went looking for trouble.

Nonetheless, he chose to help everyone which was announced through all ten shelters. It was necessary for everyone who joined his organizations to sign a Soul Contract but a quick glance could tell everyone that there weren't any bad clauses listed in it.

Nial knew that a few tricky clauses had been mentioned in the contracts but they were just to make sure that he wouldn't lose everything if someone in his organization was enslaved and unable to disobey their new master.

Safety and security of his organization and its members were his number one priority in that regard!

The citizens of the ten shelters were thankful for his help and the mysterious leader of the Onyx Association and the Orion Artisan Guild was held in much higher regard than the government itself. Not only did he treat his people in the organizations well, but he had helped everyone get rid of their addiction, and now he helped the victims of the Linaton race's scheming once again.

It was like the human race had been given a guardian angel who protected them all the time.

Thus, Nial was pretty sure that the citizens of the Halheim shelter wouldn't say anything against his plan to expand the shelter with the help of the Dracos.

"Even if everyone were against the Dracos staying right next to the Halheim shelter, they could just move a little bit further away. At the same time, everyone who went against me would be blacklisted from buying any runic armaments, potions, or Cultivation pills….I would be soooo sorrryyyy about that…well, not really," Nial pointed out to the Royal Princess who was still skeptical.

While the Royal Princess was still lost in thought, Nightingale stepped forward.

"Looks like someone figured that he had the power to blackmail his entire race…that's very pleasant to hear!" Nightingale said while clapping in his hands like an excited six-year-old kid.

Nial didn't smile when he visualized Nightingale but he was as satisfied as the Royal Nightshadow Elf acted right now.

It was about time that the government stepped back from acting all mighty, and accepted that there were stronger and more influential individuals in their race.

With that in mind, Nial waited for the Dracos' reply that came not too long after.

They were willing to build their own place just next to the Halheim shelter, which they would leave once their leader returned. It was likely to take a while before the Dracos Leader would return, either way, so they might as well do something useful.

After Nial heard a positive reply from the Dracos, he went over to the shelter and told Melheim to draft a note to the government informing them about his plans for the Dracos. Then he flew high in the air above Halheim to make an announcement to everyone in the Halheim shelter by amplifying his voice and words with the use of mana.

"Hello everyone, I'm the leader of the Orion Artisan Guild and the Onyx Association. As some of you might have noticed by now, an army of a hundred thousand Dracos and tamed beasts reached the territory of the Elven not too long ago.

I dissuaded them from attacking the Forest of Life and made sure that there is no harm in conversing with them. I also finished a business deal with them, which is why I will claim the lands on the western side of the Halheim shelter to allow the Dracos to temporarily live there. They will expand the shelter and leave when their time has come.

If someone has a problem with my attitude or actions, feel free to write a lovely letter to my legal team. I've already informed them about my course of action and what I will do in certain situations.

Ah…and don't attack the Dracos. They're much stronger than you guys are. It wouldn't even take two Dracos to destroy the entire shelter.

That being said, have fun doing whatever dirty things you're doing, my lovely government!"

Nial knew that his words created lots of enemies and that his flawless image might get tarnished. He was also pretty sure that the government and a bunch of organizations would try to exclude him and his creations from the market and spread rumors about him.

That was something he expected, which meant that he had already made preparations against these problems even if they may not actually happen.

Nial knew that he was basically blackmailing everyone even if they had yet to find out about the bitter truth, but he didn't really care about it.

Keeping a low profile was much more exhausting than acting high and mighty…and he had had enough of playing the fool. There were certain situations that he had to avoid, but they were not related to the internal problems of the origin human race.

Only other races could cause enough trouble for Nial to make him do things that he was not actually willing to do, and that was never because he was too weak as an individual but because he had people to protect!

He didn't want to be the cause of the origin human race's annihilation, which was why he used all his means to strengthen them. Creating exceptional runic armaments and cultivation pills and selling them for a dirt cheap price to allow the other races in Jundra to afford them was one of the small things that would allow the origin humans to become much stronger!

As for the reason why he didn't make a formal application to the government to expand the shelter with the Dracos' help…

Nial had had enough of the government. This was just the first slap he issued to their face!𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
