Chapter 213 -196: Facilitate Negotiations (Two in One 6000 Words)_2

According to Brandir’s idea, as long as the other Grand Druids agreed, he would tell Katherine the prayer for entering dreams, allowing the Elf Queen to enter the Natural Dreamscape while she slept at night.

The Natural Dreamscape would provide the dreamer with the most comfortable environment, allowing complete relaxation of mind and body, so Katherine could finally get a good night’s sleep.

But this request was unequivocally rejected by the other Grand Druids.

They all thought Brandir had gone mad—who chases love by offering the Emerald Dream Forest’s greatest secret as a gift? They hadn’t even won the Elf Queen’s hand, and already the Druids were bleeding a loss.

The situation was somewhat out of control; Brandir had fallen blindly in love.

Noticing that something was amiss, the other Grand Druids urgently handed over the Fury Tide Kingdom’s envoy to Brandir, urging him to negotiate with the people of the Fury Tide Kingdom. They had to keep him away from Katherine, or else he might end up selling off the entire Emerald Dream Forest.

Brandir, despite being the most gifted Druid of the Emerald Dream Forest, was, after all, a young man and couldn’t stand up against so many seniors, so he reluctantly began negotiations with the envoy of the Fury Tide Kingdom.

But what was there to negotiate? He only wanted to finish quickly so he could go back and continue persuading the Grand Druids.

With so little time in the day, if the matters remained unresolved, wouldn’t his beloved Goddess struggle to sleep again tonight?

At that thought, Brandir felt as though his heart had been sliced with a knife, such was his pain.

As such, his negotiations were aimed towards a breakdown right from the start, with an arrogantly commanding attitude, hoping these envoys of the Fury Tide Kingdom would quickly get lost.

Airel couldn’t stand this attitude and was already on the verge of taking action.

But having already experienced the effect of the Dreamweave Barrier, she knew that starting a fight with a Druid here would only be to her own detriment, so she could only clench her teeth in anger while turning her head to look at Amberser, hoping he could resolve the issue.

But was he really capable of doing so?

The presence of the Dreamweave Barrier had robbed them of their fighting strength, and esteeming this area as the Druid’s domain, it seemed excessively harsh to ask him to restore her honor.

As Airel worried, Amberser had almost confirmed Brandir’s identity, most likely that mad suitor; although he didn’t understand what chasing Katherine had to do with himself, he thought he might be able to use this to his advantage.

Amberser said to Brandir, “Master Sunda, treating a princess so rudely—how would other ladies view you if word of this spread?”

Brandir intended to scold Amberser as well, but upon hearing his words, his face suddenly changed color.

Right, how would the Goddess feel if she learned that he had shouted and railed at a young maiden, would she think him lacking in grace?

Damn, he had inadvertently caused a mess.

Seeing his change in expression, Amberser knew his words had hit Brandir’s sore spot.

Striking while the iron was hot, and taking advantage of Brandir’s moment of confusion, Amberser continued, “Princess Airel is a princess of the Fury Tide Kingdom. Is this the manner in which you treat members of royal families from other kingdoms? If you do not apologize, I assure you I will report this matter and make sure both Fury Tide Kingdom and everyone in the Emerald Dream Forest know of your conduct.”

Caught off guard, Brandir quickly said, “No, please don’t do that. I apologize, my attitude just now was inappropriate. I offer my apologies to Princess Airel, please forgive me.”

Face didn’t matter; the most important thing was not to let the Goddess know he had been discourteous to a woman.

Airel was stunned as she watched Amberser, unable to comprehend how a few simple words had made this arrogant Druid bow and apologize.

It made no sense to her; what harm could those few words do? She had been able to understand seventy or eighty percent of Amberser’s earlier trickery, but this time she understood every word and yet, the outcome completely eluded her understanding.

Without even concerning herself with Brandir’s apology, Airel worried in her heart, “It’s over, is the gap in intelligence between him and me this great? If he chose to deceive me, I would definitely be led in circles.”

Amberser looked at Brandir who had made a complete one hundred and eighty-degree turn in attitude, and felt quite disdainful in his heart. To be so manipulated by love—this Druid was far too young.

Amberser said to Brandir, “Now, can we sit down and properly discuss cooperation?”

Brandir breathed a sigh of relief, having been too hasty before, nearly destroying his reputation; fortunately, it was salvaged. As for Amberser’s request, Brandir couldn’t be less willing, but now he had no choice but to sit down and talk.

The three began their first inter-kingdom negotiations in this idyllic niche surrounded by birdsong and the fragrance of flowers. As the representative of the Fury Tide Kingdom, Amberser briefly expressed Fury Tide Kingdom’s intention to cooperate. In the end, it all came down to the fact that Laine was too terrifying. Therefore, nations at odds with Laine should come together to confront this formidable entity.

The general directive was that the Fury Tide Kingdom could promise never to threaten the coastal regions of the Emerald Dream Forest while also being willing to engage in commercial trade, exchanging resources and fulfilling each other’s needs.

These were all very rudimentary outlines; the specific details could not possibly be settled by three people there. Further personnel would need to painstakingly hash out the particulars over time.

The primary objective of this meeting was to confirm whether both parties were interested in cooperation; if so, they would continue to negotiate, if not, they could reconsider at a later time.

Brandir was growing impatient as he listened. Even without considering Katherine, he didn’t want to see closer cooperation between the two nations.
