Armipotent

Chapter 764 - Taking Over A Continent - Part 19

Tang Shaoyang watched the door closed, and his stiff posture faltered as he leaned to the side. His elbow rested on the wide armchair as he held his chin.

"Hmmm. It's almost three weeks. If I don't hear any news from Ava, then I will visit the Malecia Kingdom by myself." He muttered in a low voice. Tang Shaoyang's original idea was to have the main force attack the Warmir Kingdom. He would attack the Malecia Kingdom by himself. However, Alton, Allan, and Ashley opposed the idea of him attacking the Malecia Kingdom for some reason.

They insisted on forcing the Malecia Kingdom to surrender. It was not like there was no progress from Ava. The Former Elven Queen had talked with the Queen of the Malecia Kingdom, and the kingdom showed their thoughts of surrendering to the Tang Empire. However, the nobles of the Malecia Kingdom were the cause of the discussion in a stalemate. They wanted to keep their nobility as they did not want to suffer the same fate as the Lionax Kingdom's nobles.

Of course, Tang Shaoyang did not agree with those conditions. If they wanted to keep their nobility, they had to contribute to the Tang Empire instead of their old kingdom. In fact, he wanted to have a better system than the nobility, but it was another day's discussion.

Tang Shaoyang activated [Spirit Link] and made a connection with Aerelion. He saw what Aerelion saw, and Ava held another meeting with the Malecia Kingdom's Queen in the middle of the forest. Aerelion was standing behind Ava, intimidating the Queen and two old men. He did not interrupt the discussion as he heard everything through Aerelion.

"This is our fourth meeting, Queen Jasmine." Ava opened the discussion with a solemn look on her face. "Unfortunately, you still can't convince Your Majesty with all your offers. All nobles will be stripped from their title, but the Royal Family. The Tang Empire will let The Duncan Royal Family manage the Malecia Kingdom's territories based on His Majesty of the Tang Empire's direction."

"If you still refuse to surrender, then The Tang Empire will bring the fire of war to the Malecia Kingdom." To the Queen's left, the old man was about to refute back, but Ava continued with a solemn face. "His Majesty has become impatient because the Malecia Kingdom keeps stalling the capitulation."

The old man had his mouth opened, but words came out from his mouth now. The people of Malecia stepped into the streets, relaying their voices for the kingdom to surrender to the Tang Empire. After the news of the fall of the Lionax Kingdom spread among the people, the Malecia Kingdom was swept by great unrest. Especially after they confirmed that the Lionax Kingdom fell into the Tang Empire within days.

On top of that, people at the border started to spot the dragons, not just one, but two. The trigger made the Malecia Kingdom's citizens force the ruling family to surrender to the Tang Empire. Of course, the rumor of the third dragon was also heard by the Malecia Kingdom's people, and the fact the third dragon was not seen around with the two dragons worried caused great concern to the people.

In fact, not just the citizens of Malecia but also the nobles were trembling in fear. If the war broke out, the nobles were the main target of the enemy, not the civilians. However, despite their fear of the Tang Empire, they still took advantage of the Tang Empire's willingness to talk with them. They added the condition that the nobles kept their territories, private force, and wealth.

Of course, the noble factions were well aware that the Tang Empire would not agree with those conditions. However, that was not their goal; the noble faction's goal was to take the middle way as they wanted to maintain their wealth and the territory. However, they did not expect the Tang Empire to be unwilling to relent or take the middle way.

"Not just that, we have taken down the Capital of Warmir too," Aerelion interjected amidst the silence. "My Master just informed me that the main force has wiped out the Warmir Kingdom's armies. If you still don't want to accept the condition, be ready for the war. This is the last warning for the Malecia Kingdom if you still refuse to surrender. Also, you still dare to put an audacious condition for someone in your position. Be aware of your position. The Malecia Kingdom is not in the position to negotiate!"

The last sentence was Aerelion's words, not Tang Shaoyang. The Infernal Wyvern was annoyed as the Malecia Kingdom kept stalling the surrender despite being in the lower position. The Infernal Wyvern voiced his annoyance.

Jasmine Lorene Duncan, the current Queen of the Malecia Kingdom, flinched when she heard the Black Dragon speak to them. She was not aware that Aerelion was not a Dragon but a Wyvern. However, they did not have knowledge about the dragon hence regarded Aerelion as a Dragon. Tang Shaoyang exploited that fact to his advantage, and it worked.

As the ruler of people, she quickly regained her composure while the two old men almost jerked out of the seat when Aerelion spoke. Taking a deep breath, Queen Jasmine faced Aerelion. The Master of this Dragon should be the Emperor. That meant the Emperor was watching the meeting from far away.

Queen Jasmine stood up and held her dress before bowing toward Aerelion. "This humble lady is the head of the Duncan Royal Family." She kept her head down and continued. "The Duncan Royal Family is willing to surrender and become the vassal of the Tang Empire." She addressed herself as the head of the Duncan Family, meaning she introduced herself to Tang Shaoyang not as the ruler of the kingdom but as a head family. The meaning behind that action was clear that the Malecia Kingdom was willing to surrender under the Tang Empire's condition.

Queen Jasmine did not bother to discuss this with the noble anymore. If the Warmir Kingdom had fallen, then the Malecia Kingdom was next.. She did not want that to happen and immediately gave her answer right away.
