Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1467: Red feast (3)
With the way that they sat there, it was almost as if they were trying to put pressure on me who was alone.
But even when facing all of these high elves, it wasn't as if I had any fear.
Since they wanted something from me, there was no way that they would actually do anything to me.
It was just how to respond to them.
Seeing that I didn't see anything, the high elves seemed a bit impatient.
It wasn't strange that they were acting this way since they had gone out of their way to prepare all this. It would have been strange if they weren't impatient since they had gone all out like this, but the other side wasn't reacting.
In the end, the Elven King said, "Your majesty, are you saying that you won't be giving us any wyverns?"
There was a hidden dangerous tone to his voice when he said this.
It was clear what the Elven King meant when he said this.
Simply put, it was a threat.
If you don't want to trade your wyverns with us, do you think that you'll be able to get out of here alive?
But once again, I didn't show any signs of panic when I heard this.
I just calmly looked at them for a bit before saying, "When did I say that?"
The Elven King didn't react at first as he calmly looked at me, but then there was a wide smile that appeared on his face as he said, "Of course, I was just saying that it was impossible that you would say something like that."
Turning to the other high elves, he said, "We're friends here, is there a need to doubt our friends like this?"
The other high elves slowly nodded, but it didn't seem like they were completely assured yet.
Without closing the deal, it would be hard for them to feel assured that easily after all.
So the Elven King turned back to look at me once more since he knew this as well and waited for me to say something.
I paused for a moment before saying, "I was thinking about bringing a hundred wyverns to the Elven Kingdom. It's just that after coming here…"
I intentionally didn't finish my words and the high elves knew this, but the fact that I was offering a hundred wyverns already as a starting point was already enough to get them excited.
It was clear that they hadn't expected me to offer this many.
At the same time, this made it clear to me that they already had information about the human world. After all, for them to react to this number, it meant that they already had an idea of the offers that had been made to the other human countries that received wyverns.
As such, it wasn't strange that they were excited.
But it seemed that the problem ran much deeper than I thought.
Still, I said, "After coming here, I've seen that the environment here is quite suitable for raising and training wyverns. So I've had some other thoughts and I would like to discuss this with all of you." ƒreewebɳovel.com
The Elven King and the high elves were all surprised to hear this before looking at me as if they were asking something.
I just calmly looked at them without saying a single thing.
In the end, there were wide smiles that appeared on the faces of the Elven King and the high elves. After all, they knew exactly what I was offering them, which was why they were so excited.
"Not a problem. Let's discuss this as much as you want." The Elven King said with an even wider smile.
The way that he looked at me was as if he could already see us coming to an agreement.
Though in reality, what I was doing was just stalling for time.
The wyverns were nothing more than bait to gather the Elven King and the high elves that supported him in one place.
What was supposed to come would be the one fell swoop that would take down the Elven King and these high elves.
Though I really had no idea when it would be coming.
So for now, the only thing that I could do was keep the Elven King and the high elves distracted.
The Elven King and the high elves seemed excited at first, but with the way that I was stalling…the smiles seemed a bit strained. Even though they were happy that I was proposing that a wyvern breeding camp would be set up in the Elven Kingdom, they were unhappy that I wasn't giving them anything concrete.
With the way that I was stalling, it really seemed like I didn't want to go through with this at all.
But it wasn't as if the Elven King or the high elves could say this out loud.
If they really did do something, then not only would it cause an international incident, it would also mean that they wouldn't be able to get their wyverns.
To the Elven King and the high elves, the wyverns were actually the more important thing.
But in the end, they didn't get anything.
That was because there were sounds that were coming from outside this room.
These were faint sounds at first, so the Elven King and the high elves ignored them.
But it eventually reached a point where they weren't able to ignore it anymore.
At the same time, the Elven King and the high elves realized something.
The room that they were currently in was a special room that had been created to stop sounds from coming in and getting out. So for sounds to actually come into this room, that meant that these sounds had to be quite loud.
It seemed that something was happening outside…
When they opened the door and looked out the room, the Elven King and the high elves all deeply knitted their brows at the sight in front of them.
