Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 255 - 255: Hall Meeting (Part 2)_1



“The real purpose?”

On the other side, Princess Ariel blinked her clear starry eyes, with a matter-of-fact expression, replying: “Of course, it’s to carry out a mission for my Coldflame Royal Family.

If you are willing to replace the former City Lord, swear loyalty to the royal family, continue to pay taxes to the Royal Capital, and fulfill relevant obligations during war.

Then I, on behalf of the Coldflame Royal Family, will appoint you as the new

Lord of Cyan Town and grant you all the authority of a City Lord.”

Hearing this, Leo Ray stroked his chin while nodding thoughtfully.

Without a doubt, everything that the other party said was exactly as he had expected when taking over Cyan Town.

It seems that under the circumstances of internal power struggles and border wars within the Coldflame Kingdom, they obviously don’t want to spend more energy focusing on Cyan Town, a remote and obscure little town.

It can be seen that as long as they agree to be loyal to the Coldflame Royal

Family and not expand their power further, they would be in a relatively safe state, at least until their opponents free up their resources to deal with them.

However, correspondingly, once their opponents have completely solved these internal and external problems, they would undoubtedly face an unexpected invasion from the Coldflame army, leading to their utter destruction.

After all, by killing the former City Lord protected by the Coldflame, they were challenging the authority of the entire Coldflame Royal Family. Therefore, in order to save face, the other party must be waiting for the opportunity to retaliate and completely eliminate them.

The so-called pledge of loyalty is nothing more than a ploy to deceive them.

“On this point, I, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, both of whom are nobles of Coldflame, as well as Gunner

Santons, who is very familiar with the Coldflame Kingdom, have discussed and unanimously reached the same conclusion.”

“So, they will naturally not stop here and fall into the other’s trap.”

“If they want to play schemes with the Great Summer People with their glorious history, these original inhabitants of the Otherworld are still a bit

naive.”

Thinking about this, Leo Ray picked up a porcelain cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea handed over by a maid, and continued pondering.

Overall, it can be fully determined that the currently self-busy Coldflame Royal Family does not have any plans to take action against them.

They can take advantage of the other party’s delaying tactic and give them a taste of their medicine.

Pretend to agree to their conditions on the surface, allowing them to let their guard down, all while continuing to rapidly expand their power in secret.

“As the saying goes, ‘Take advantage of others’ illnesses, and take their lives.’ It’s impossible for me to be executed. Whoever goes against me will end up burned.”

“No matter who it is, in the end, they will only have the path of self-immolation.”

Realizing this, Leo Ray put down the porcelain cup and fell into contemplation again.

Speaking of which, since the purpose of the envoy group has been answered, it’s naturally the turn of Princess Ariel’s real purpose for coming here.

Although she just spoke sternly, her face was obviously a bit unnatural.

It seems that the other party is not a person who is good at hiding things, and with a little effort, the truth will soon be revealed.

With that in mind, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate to turn his body and said to Ariel, “I agree. Cyan Town is willing to return to the jurisdiction of the Coldflame Royal Family.”

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray continued, “After attending the welcome banquet I prepared for you all, you can go back this afternoon and report back.”

“This way, the welcome banquet and farewell banquet can be combined.”

“What!?” At his words, Princess Ariel blinked her big eyes, which could almost compete with Scarlett’s, and her face was full of confusion.

At the same time, Giant Axe General Burt and Holy Light General Joshua, seated below, also began to look puzzled at each other.

What is going on with the young City Lord, who was just scoffing at the Coldflame Royal Family? Now he’s willing to submit so easily?

This huge contrast is too difficult to understand. What is the ulterior motive of this guy?

“Leaving this afternoon?”

On the other side, although Ariel still maintained an elegant smile on her delicate cheeks,

there was obviously some unnaturalness in her words as she replied, “Even if you agree immediately, we still need to complete corresponding procedures, such as signing various paper contracts. It’ll take us at least a week or even half a month!”

“Signing a contract takes this long?”

Looking at her slightly flustered expression, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a playful smile before continuing, “It’s alright, just leave the corresponding officials behind.”

As a distinguished member of the royal family, my dear Her Highness the Fifth

Princess, you must be overwhelmed with countless tasks for the Coldflame Royal Family. How can our little Cyan Town dare to take up so much of your time? Therefore, please leave this afternoon.”

“How could I possibly not have a say in it? You want me to leave, and I just leave?”

Playing with the elegant silver pendant on her chest, Ariel Watson forcefully argued, “Originally, I was thinking about leaving early, but now that you’ve said it, I’m going to stay a few more days!”

Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but curl his lips.

No wonder she’s the Fifth Princess of Coldflame. Her skill in bickering is much more advanced than that of ordinary people.

Realizing this point, Leo Ray simply stopped bickering and said with an unquestionable tone, “Anyway, if there are no other reasons, all of you here must leave Cyan Town immediately this afternoon!”

“This…”

Hearing this, not only was Princess Ariel puzzled, but even General Bert and the female General Joshua who were seated at the lower position couldn’t help but look at each other in confusion.

In the past, every time a royal envoy group was sent,

the City Lords would all want to keep the envoy group for a few more days, so they could get along well with the officials from the royal capital while enjoying food, drinks, and sightseeing, in case of unforeseen needs.

However, this young man in front of them is not following the usual procedure.

He even mentioned combining the welcome banquet and farewell banquet, which is unheard of!

“What do you really want?”

Indignant, Princess Ariel took a deep breath and said angrily, “What if I don’t want to leave and want to stay here for a while?”

“That’s not impossible.”

With a faint smile, seeing that the time was ripe, Leo Ray went straight to the point, “So, back to the previous question, my dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess, tell us your real purpose for coming here..”
