Lord of the Truth

It didn't take long for Robin to realize that there was no reason for him to refuse the marriage suggestion.

Everything about Mila, whether the outward appearance, age, or talent, is perfect for him, and in addition to all of that, the Bradley - a Duke family - will be tied to him inseparably close.

They will be tied to his horse, if he seeks glory they will seek it with him and if he falls they will be shamed alongside him.

  This is not just an ordinary wedding pact, Mila herself is considered by everyone to be the next duchess of the Bradley family and their representative wherever she goes.

After a few more seconds, Robin put a big smile and nodded, "If even this stubborn girl is okay with it, how can I refuse? Haha, I have no problem with the idea either... You can talk to Patriarch Brian about the rest of the details and arrangements as I do not have much experience in these matters, as for me, I apologize... I have to get back to what I was doing." Then he turned around and made his way out of the room, leaving everyone stunned

It is like they were the ones who proposed and pushed Mila at him and he casually agreed ... well, that is kind of what really happened ... but still!!

Mila came back to sit in her place again, she went back to her strayed look ... If someone had told her a few years ago that she was going to get married soon, she would have laughed at his ridiculousness. 

She was not some ordinary girl that might be used to make marriage alliances!

She is the lady who is destined to reach the top of the saint realm, and maybe one day she will get the chance to discover the third stage of her technique and break into the Sage-hood... bringing her family to the threshold of a royal family!

But given what happened now... technically she was the one who proposed... to be married off to Robin... herself..!?

Whenever this embarrassing thought came into her head, her face turned red, and lowered her face further toward the ground, she was not in the mood to talk to anyone about anything ...

Saint Edward was the first to break this awkward atmosphere, so he spoke to the patriarch, "Ahem, as long as we have the initial consent of the two love birds, I think we can talk again about the details of the cooperation, Patriarch Brian?"

"Ahahaha of course, but why are you still talking officially, nephew Edward? We are a family now hahaha" This is without a doubt one of the proudest moments in the life of Patriarch Brian, and perhaps in the entire history of the Burton family...

Previously, he would never have dreamed of meeting a character like Mila and talking to her face to face, regardless of whether she married one of his family members!

Negotiations on future forms of cooperation and relations continued for some time between the Patriarch and Edward, but this time things went significantly more smoothly.

In the end, it was decided that the Bradley family would not pay annual Research Grants and would not send resources for free unless they were in the form of gifts... so none of them is obligatory anymore

the only thing that the Bradleys will still have to do of the first two offers, is to allow access for the Burton to their markets and connections and help them get anything that Robin might need and the Burdons can't provide... 

These first two offers were attempts to lure Robin with money, which is no longer needed if they were one family ...

But the third offer will still have to take place. which is to help the Burton family with Five Saints... 

According to Robin, he does not need personal protection because there are saints from the royal family around him, but the Burton family itself is still relatively young and weak and needs a lot of support and reconstruction

Saint Edward, for example, volunteered to regroup and restructure the Burton family's army in their hometown of Jura. 

The army almost collapsed in their war more than a decade years ago.

Only a few thousand veteran warriors remained, and they are all now in the new family's lands - previously Dolivar -

So there is an urgent need to raise a new army, train and arm it to befit a family of the rank of a Marquess .. and who could do a better job than a genius general like Saint Edward?

While the other three Saints would work with him as second rank generals to train and strengthen the army, and they will also secure auctions. 

the four of them would remain in Jura City permanently to their new jobs and will provide support in case there was a massive attack from the repels on the army in the new lands.

The patriarch was not worried about giving them the keys to constructing the army at all. 

After a tie of this level is formed, the Burton family's strength would become an extension of theirs, and the higher the status of one of the two families would be with the other, so why would they try to harm them?

As for the absent-minded bride herself, she would be free to go out and into the Burton family administrative zone and even the guest house - now Robyn's residence - whenever she wanted to.

It was also agreed that wedding gifts, wedding date, etc... would be postponed until an appropriate time appears, but the Bradle family should immediately announce to the world that Mila is officially engaged to Robin Burton... As this is the basis on which everything else will be built upon.

After everything was talked about and agreed upon, Saint Edward decided that he would stay and start preparing studies to restructure the worn Burton family's army immediately, and Mila decided that she would also remain in the Burton family for the time being...

And one of the three saints went silently to deliver the news to the family elders... Even he himself didn't know how to tell Galan that his daughter had been betrothed...

--------------------------------

The saint arrived a few hours later at Bradley's Pearl city and called an urgent meeting of the family elders...

Quickly everyone who has a position in the family was gathered, and on top of them of course Galan was also present, all of them confused after they saw the saint.

Everyone in here was smart enough to know the importance of Robin, even after taking the method of making fire runes out of him, he himself was still far more valuable

Some of them attacked Galan harshly when Robin left, they has thrown all the responsibility on Galan's shoulder, saying that he riped the Fire talisman technique out of Robin, but still couldn't even protect him properly that he allowed an assassination attempt on him just under their nose!

An inner faction with a level 30 saint heading it, even accused Galan of plotting with the royal family to ship off Robin to them!

Robin's speech with Edward and Mila before his departure has frightened them, they saw what this kid has accomplished within the short period he stayed with them...

the fire, dark, and vitality talisman within two years, not to mention the pills that helped Mila break through to the 25th level, even the guy who bough the bill at the auction was reported to have breakthrough as well

Galan was posting about getting the Fire talisman technique, but what was that in front of everything else he has made, and everything he WILL make?

To illustrate how important this connection with Robin is to them: some of the elders suggested returning the Fire talisman technique to Robin and swear to never make one talisman, in exchange for maintaining good relations with him!

One of if not The biggest achievement for the family, which is the *Fire talisman technique* has also become a potential reason for the elders border to take his position away from him...

Galan waited until the last person arrived and then anxiously looked at the Saint from Jura City, "You can speak now… what happened there? Did he accept our offers?"

"No…." The Saint replied in a hesitant voice

"Damn!"

"I told you, Galan, these shitty offers are not enough!"

Everyone started shouting angry and blaming each other, there was no need for any other questions...

"Wait!! I didn't finish my words... It is true that our initial offers were not accepted, but we were able to restore relations between us and Robin!" The saint quickly enters

Galan, who had put his forehead on his palm and started to think of a way to secure his position as duke already, panicked after this sentence and looked at the saint with a look full of enthusiasm, "What did you say?! How..? You bastard, don't leave us hanging and speak directly."

"This… this…" The Saint hesitated a lot and started to sweat

"Speak and get it over with!! .. And where are Mila and the rest of the group that was with you?" A high-ranking saint hit the table hard

"L... la.... lady Mila is going to marry Robin Burton!!"
