Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 718 Heirloom

A smile crept onto my face when I heard this.

This duke really didn't seem to care about being subtle at all as he said all of this to my face.

Even if it was true, it wasn't sothing that should be said out loud since it might offend the other side.

But I wasn't offended by this since I liked soone who was this frank with .

However, I also couldn't help wanting to tease the duke a bit.

So I said with a smile, "Why do you think that?"

It was the duke's turn to smile as he looked at with that smile and said, "With the wyverns that you've brought alone, we're already helpless. With those wyverns, do you really think that we could do anything to stop you?

He shook his head as the smile on his face beca helpless before saying, "To be honest, I completely thought that you were here to invade us when you showed up with those wyverns. So if you really want to do anything in our country, it isn't as if you can stop us."

His eyes suddenly beca serious as he looked at .

He looked at like this for a bit before suddenly saying, "That just makes wonder...what are you asking for permission for?"

I said with the sa smile, "It's your country, isn't it normal for to ask for permission?"

A bitter smile appeared on the duke's face as he said, "Didn't I just say that you can do whatever you want in my country as long as you have those wyverns? Would I be able to stop you?"

Though it seed like he was being self deprecating, there was another reason why he was saying these things.

Basically, he could guess that there was another reason why I had co to ask for his permission.

It wasn't so much as asking him for permission, rather it was as if there was sothing that I needed from him.

Seeing him ask this, I stopped playing around and said, "Well, there is another reason for doing all of this."

The duke wasn't surprised at all, as he just waited for to say what I wanted to say.

The smile disappeared from my face and a serious look appeared in its place.

With that serious look on my face, I looked down at the duke's hand which confused him.

The duke followed my gaze and he found that my eyes were on the ring that was on his hand.

The duke looked even more confused when he saw this.

After a while, he raised the hand that had the ring on it and said, "All that for this?"

I gave a nod before saying, "I need that heirloom of yours to help take care of the disturbance in the forest. Without it, it will be impossible for to solve this problem of yours."

Heirloom really was the right word to describe this since this was a ring that had been passed down through the duke's family for generations. Though the duke had no idea what the real value of this ring was.

Only I knew why this ring had been passed down in the duke's family for generations.

The duke knitted his brows when he heard this.

After all, this was his family heirloom that I was trying to 'borrow'.

It would be hard for him to give up this ring to soone that was close to him since it was the heirloom of his family. So it was even harder for him to give this up to who had just arrived in his country and asked for this ring.

In the end, Duke Nergiante didn't deny my request and instead just asked, "What do you need this family heirloom of mine for? I think as the owner of this thing, I'm entitled to ask that at the very least, right?"

I shook my head and said, "I can't answer that until it's over. Until then, you just have to trust ." Then after a pause, I added, "Of course, you can co with if you're worried about your item."

Duke Nergiante had looked a bit displeased with what I said at first, but his expression quickly changed when he heard the latter half of what I said.

Slowly, he asked, "You're saying that I can co with you?"

I gave a simple nod in response to this.

Duke Nergiante looked at with a strange look, as if he didn't know what to say in response to this.

He had been completely expecting to tell him to stay here and leave things to , so he was completely caught off guard when he was told that he would be allowed to go.

Duker Nergiante slowly raised a brow to look at before saying, "Alright, but the ring never leaves . That's the only condition that I have."

I gave a nod in response.

I didn't actually need the ring itself, I just needed to use the ring for a bit when we arrived at our destination. I didn't want to offend or provoke Duke Nergiante since he seed like quite a good person.

He was definitely soone that I wanted to befriend after everything that I saw here.

After seeing my response, Duke Nergiante gave another sigh before saying, "Though if you really wanted to take it, I couldn't stop you, could I? You really are hard to read, I've never t anyone like you before."

I just said with a smile, "Then let's take our ti to get to know each other."

Duke Nergiante once again looked at with a strange look before slowly nodding in agreent.

Since the ice had been broken and an agreent had been reached, we just took our ti talking to each other.

Not just , but the fourth prince also found Duke Nergiante to be quite the pleasant person.

It seed that he had the sa idea as judging by the look in his eyes.
