Chapter 64: Chapter 63 Crown and Choice_1

Chapter 64 -63 Crown and Choice_1

Blanton, Rayli, Black Wolf and even Griffin and the others, all felt that Ivita’s demands were a bit too much.

After all, they weren’t really the losing side.

They clearly just didn’t want to sink more costs into their castle.

But evidently, the authority the Pan God bestowed upon the Snake Woman Chief was even greater than everyone thought.

To everyone’s surprise, the Snake Woman Chief stood up, her face ashen in agreement with Ivita’s demands.

When she left the castle, she was so indignant that she almost stumbled.

She blamed the Pan God in silence, wondering why He commanded her to complete negotiations with Ivita and the others today, even allowing her to agree to any request from Ivita.

Although their army was plagued, they had not yet reached the end of the line.

She didn’t understand why the Pan God was in such a hurry to make peace!

At noon, both parties agreed to form an alliance beneath the city.

The place where they negotiated their agreement was situated midway between the two camps.

For safety reasons, each party can only bring three people along.

This was a requirement from Ivita, mainly because he needed to guard against the forest’s children, as well as assassin Basang.

So, he wanted to reduce the number of people that could reach him.

To avoid the incident like the Small Brotherhood of Trustworthiness assassin’s attempt at the Burnt Wine Inn, who hid in a corpse and puppeteered it to approach him.

He also told the Knight Griffin and the others that a bona fide professional assassin would come to kill him, so they needed to be on high alert.

The people Ivita brought with him included the Old Witch, who was a third-level witch.

All in all, she was the most powerful practitioner on their side.

In Ambros, third level witches were rare.

Then, he brought along Knight Griffin, who was very close to becoming a Great Knight, and Demon Hunter Black Wolf.

As they stood under the scorching sun at noon in front of a few large stones temporarily moved here to serve as tables for their negotiation.

At that moment, Ivita saw the Pan God sitting on a small stone block, with his eyes closed.

This was Ivita’s first close encounter with the Pan God, and he felt a kind of primitive, savage beauty emanating from him, much like the hidden deadly threat in natural scenery.

The Pan God at this moment perhaps had his eyes closed to seal his inherent power.

Behind him stood the leaders of the two-headed trolls, the chieftain of the snake women, and the grand union master of the tauren.

The two-headed troll leader showed some uncontrollable anger at the sight of the broken steel sword in Ivita’s hand.

If it were not for the Pan God opening his eyes and looking at him, I’m afraid this negotiation would’ve immediately turned into a fight.

The two-headed troll was furious. “These guys killed my people, Ancient Soul.”

“Why can’t we kill them? Even if there’s a plague, as long as we’re willing to pay the price, we can still breach this castle.”

The Pan God closed his eyes and sat on the stone. “I have a plan.”

So, what’s the plan?

The two heads of the two-headed troll were puffing and huffing, staring at the Pan God, but evidently, if the Pan God didn’t want to continue, he had no way of knowing.

The Pan God said to Ivita, “Lord Ivita, we’ve been at odds for five days and are now familiar with each other.”

“I won’t belabor the point.”

“I can only tell you that we can retreat, but the only reason we haven’t yet is because we need you to promise to seal off Baron Moro’s territory.”

“Starting today, no one is to enter Baron Moro’s territory.”

The Pan God said, “If you agree, we will retreat and also compensate you with some money.”

Ivita frowned. He had guessed early on that the Son of Forest wanted this territory to block some people.

Now, the Pan God’s request confirmed his suspicions.

Ivita revealed no emotion, neither agreeing nor refusing. “Who specifically am I supposed to intercept?”

“One of them has some connections to you. One of them is Prince Jalen of Alsace Kingdom.” Suddenly, the Pan God opened his eyes and looked at Ivita. Seeing that Ivita seemed to feel no pressure, he looked back at him with a strange gaze.

There were few mortals who could withstand the gaze of the Agricultural Ancient Soul.

Let alone a human who was just a teenager.

As this had nothing to do with strength, but revolved around status and elements.

Seeing that Ivita could withstand his gaze, the Pan God didn’t close his eyes again. Instead, he stared at Ivita with his mesmerizing eyes. “The other person is a top-notch citizen of the autonomous state confederation.”

“You need to specially intercept these two individuals?”

Ivita looked at the Pan God with a strange expression.

The surrounding people had been feeling a great mental pressure ever since the Pan God opened his eyes.

Once they saw the Pan God’s gaze, they felt as if they were being forcibly attracted, compelled towards misfortune, and even their control over their bodies stiffened, becoming somewhat unnatural.

Not just the humans, it was the same with the Sons of the Forest.

Fortunately, they were professionals, not ordinary people.

Even the Old Witch of Hearthstone was affected to some extent, though the influence on her was not that significant.

The Knight Griffin felt the extraordinary power of blood surging within him, supplied by his Extraordinary Heart, which offered resistance against the influence of the Pan God’s gaze.

The super-fiber muscle structure and spiritual skin cells also offered a bit of resistance against Pan God’s power.

He looked at Ivita and unbelievably discovered that Ivita didn’t seem impacted at all, and could converse with the Pan God freely.

How odd.

The Old Witch wasn’t surprised at all, in her eyes, a Demon God could not be affected.

Ivita gave the Pan God a peculiar look. “Do you think I’m a fool?”

“If we agree to close our territory and prevent people from entering or exiting the Baron’s land, wouldn’t that make us an army for the Sons of the Forest, helping to guard this place?”

“Moreover, if we did this, we’d have to become enemies with the army led by Jalen and the Autonomous States Confederation.”

“If that’s the case, why should we not fight the Sons of the Forest to death, but fight against human armies like our own instead, for your sake?”

Ivita silently studied these two figures.

For reasons unknown to him, the target of the Sons of the Forest seemed to be these two individuals.

The Pan God was rebuked, but he didn’t get angry, as this was just an unacceptably high price he intentionally asked for to set the stage for bargaining.

This would enable him to lower the price and get the upper hand. “Maybe we can take one more step back. We can retreat, not pay compensation, and you don’t need to block your territory.”

“But you must inform us of the identities of everyone passing through.”

Ivita interrupted him, saying, “Pan, stop your nonsensical games. I won’t agree to do any task for you.”

“I thought you hated Jalen too,” the Pan God said quietly, “When someone steals something from a person, they have reason to seek revenge.”

“Avenging against Jalen is your right.”

“When Jalen enters your castle, as long as you inform us, you can utilise the military force of the Sons of the Forest to set up an insurmountable trap and kill your enemy and his army.”

The Pan God’s voice rose, saying, “Any exceptional person would do similar things in their youth. This is power, this is nobility.”

After thinking for a moment, Ivita found it objectionable. “I refuse. I have said that we will not do anything for the invaders. We are not your army.”

“Furthermore, I will not betray humanity. Jalen can be dealt with at any time, there is no rush.”

“But if we use your power, it would be like aiding the Sons of the Forest against humanity.”

The Pan God squinted his eyes. “What’s the problem? This is intrigue, politicians’ lives derive from this.”

“Intrigue and revenge can make heroes.”

Ivita shook his head and chuckled coldly, saying, “I have no intention to seek revenge on anyone. The citizens of the territory have the ability to choose their King, and all I have to do is make the right choices, and the throne will naturally return to me.”

“Merely revenge and intrigue obviously cannot support a crown, even if a crown is gained through intrigue and revenge, it will be lost at an even more tragic cost in the future.”

“I reiterate my demand, you must withdraw your troops and pay reasonable compensation!”

“And we promise nothing. The only pledge I can make is that I won’t alert Jalen, but I offer no guarantee that I won’t alert the First Citizen of the Confederation for some other reasons.”

Upon hearing Ivita talk this way, both the Knight Griffin and Black Wolf were greatly shocked and felt a ripple of admiration.

The Old Witch merely remained indifferent.

After hearing Ivita’s words, the Pan God pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, “Indeed, intrigue and revenge cannot bear the weight of the crown. The crown obtained through intrigue and revenge will surely pay a heavy price.”

He suddenly sighed. “Once, a young man as brilliant as you made the opposite decision before me.”

“He accepted my suggestions, used a witch to get the Golden Fleece and then abandoned her, gave the Golden Fleece to the princess and the king, and obtained the throne.”

“His end, however, was to be beaten to death by the princess and their son, discarded on a lonely road side.”

“You’re right. I’m starting to understand why the Conference Ring was given to you.”

Conference Ring?

Ivita looked on surprised, when the Pan God said the last few words, his voice suddenly dropped in volume. But Ivita heard it perfectly clearly. It was the Conference Ring!
