If I got strippers to dance for at this mont like how old humans used to enjoy themselves in their free ti, then I'd have invited them on board and let them fill the entire world with their cheers and laughs.
I was truly and honestly open to any situation and welcoming to any decision. After all, I got my ho and people, my forces and interest, my kingdom and my hard work achievents, I got them all in my pocket.
So jerks, what would you do about it? Which side would you select to satisfy? And which side would you choose to face their wrath and revenge?
[We have decided to support you!] and when two hours passed, and I thought they'd take much longer to make up their arrangents and deals with the Hescos and other big races, the higher up sent this unexpected ssage over.
"What's the catch here?"
[There is none!]
"Then how co you selected over the big nas? I don't believe you!"
[Don't thank , but thank your allies. They did exert lots of pressure to secure this deal for you]
"The Toranks?!" I never thought about asking them for help. But it seed they took the initiative, and ca to pressure the system higher ups against the Hescos.
Damn! I totally forgot that I got such a big na behind . This was the advantage of having soone strong and mighty as a big brother or a friend.
[They did pull every string they can, and in the end you got what you want]
"So… Will I get all the races here?"
[As long as they agree to join you, then it's fine]
"Are you sure?" I paused, before laughing, "this isn't so shitty trick of yours, right?"
[Kid, the universe is too big to be centred on you. It's just the importance of the races here in the big picture that we are talking together right now. Or else, trying to speak to will be the last wish you'll struggle to achieve in this life!]
"The sa goes for you," I laughed. I didn't take any of his arrogant words to heart, "I'm going to impress all of you then."
[I just want the races to be secured, and try to preserve most of their numbers. These races… They hold the future of our universe]
"Sorry, but I beg to differ."
[How so? Do you perhaps think that you know better than I? Than other big shots here?]
"I won't say I know better for sure, but I can say you are wrong!"
[Prove then, and I promise you one ti help from ]
"Five tis help, not one!"
[Damn! Are you perhaps a descendant of an old stingy rchant lineage or what? Why does it turn out to be a hustle every single ti we talk and deal together?]
"Anyti you speak, you co up with a chance for a trade," I laughed, "don't bla for being too overly cautious. I want more interest in my kingdom and race."
[This is called greed]
"This is called the leader's responsibility towards his people," I laughed, "now, what will you say about my offer? Five tis help? Is it a deal?"
[Tsk! Fine, let's go with five. But I will select these five tis myself, and you won't go around shouting my na all over the place every ti you face a hiccup or sothing. It will be quite annoying to waste my breath and ti over trivial matters]
"Don't worry, I never deal with trivial matters either," I evilly grinned, "now let prove you wrong."
[Be my guest!]
This dude… He didn't realise that he already fell in my trap. In fact I was just overjoyed by such an ending.
Of course I didn't care if he agreed or not, both options held advantages for . However the thought of being on the side of evilness, helping the villains and becoming one of them still annoyed .
Not to ntion, I already got friends here in this universe. I never expected the Toranks to take the step and support against the Hescos.
Thinking this ca thanks to their enmity with the Hescos, or thanks to their value of our friendship and alliance was just naive.
These dudes… They did all this just to ask for sothing in return. If they ca out first, talked with about this, then a long bargain would happen, one that I'd end up taking and chopping lots of their benefits.
So they adopted another approach, took the initiative and saved from this disaster. At the sa ti, they held the fate of and my kingdom again in their hands.
If I didn't agree on their terms, if I tried to negotiate and made a fuss about their demands, then they'd simply flip the switch, join the Hescos in pressuring .
The quest didn't end and I didn't get anything yet. So all these promises were empty words that the system higher ups could renege at any mont from.
The only guarantee that wouldn't happen was the presence of the Toranks by my side. Tsk! Those dudes were becoming more cunning, harder to deal with.
They put in front of reality, and didn't give a single chance to evade or hustle about their demands.
"You think the future of the universe lies within the hands of these twenty races, but you are wrong. These twenty races are strong and unique indeed, and are going to form a formidable force on our side to fight against the invading universe. But…"
[But what?]
"You totally forgot that the ones who rescued them from such a disastrous fate are us, the ones who ca from the universe."
[Your point is?]
"If they are this mighty and capable, why didn't they break free a long ti ago on their own? Why did they need our help? That's because without us, they won't be able to do anything, nothing at all! They are strong, but like a strong and sharp sword, without a capable swordsman holding it, the sword will turn into a useless piece of tal, a scarp that has no value or use."
