Lord of the Truth

Chapter 576 War council -3

*Holding breath* "Of-- of course, Your Excellency, as long as you see this appropriate, we are ready to receive our share." Fugon stammered when he finally felt Robin's eyes on his body

Robin nodded with a smile, then pulled a dagger from Caesar's waist that was sitting right next to him and threw it carelessly on the table.

"Keeeh!!" Fugon and his team were startled for a moment when they saw the scene, but their hearts quickly calmed down when they saw that the dagger was not coming towards them but starting to move smoothly on the table, scratching it.

Not long had passed when everyone knew what was going on. His Excellency was drawing a map of the lands of the Empire, represented by all the lands of Tree Father Hoffenheim, and all the lands of Tree Father, Descartes merged together, The dagger then moved sharply and began to draw the boundaries of the four tribes as they all had borders with the Empire's lands.

Just after this meeting began and when Robin saw the map that Emily passed to him, he smiled and put it aside. Then he began to move the dagger and draw another, more detailed, map based on what he saw on the planet's spirit, the green orb, which is without a doubt the most accurate.

But the rest of them did not know this... Emily raised her eyebrows slightly and began adjusting her glasses nervously every few seconds when she saw the many differences between her map and the map being drawn in front of them, she was afraid that His Excellency would be angry with her because of her negligence. Meanwhile, all the tribe leaders and members swallowed saliva at the same time when they realized that the borders of the four tribes were drawn with amazing precision. They themselves did not have a map so detailed for their territory! Does this mean that there are elite forces from the Empire's army that entered their lands and drew this map without anyone's knowledge?

After the map was finished and took a realistic shape on the table, Robin took out 4 scrolls and started writing things for a few minutes, then clapped and smiled, "Alright then, let's get started."

"Wait a moment!!" Before Robin could say another word, someone quickly stood up and stopped him

"Hmm?" Robin raised his head towards the source of the voice, "Oh, you are... Charvier, right? Do you have a problem?"

*Long Exhale* The leader of the Grazing Rats Tribe pushed back his chair and gestured to two people who were sitting next to him. Then, the three of them took some steps under the gazes of everyone until they reached a suitable distance from Robin, neither too far nor too close, and then they knelt down with their hands and feet on the ground, "The Grazing Rats Tribe renounces any rights and rewards, in return we humbly request the honor of joining the True Beginning Empire!"

"Brother Charvier, what are you...?" Although Fugon, Hadyar, and the rest were mentally prepared for this request, the way it was carried out was simply exaggerated... He shouldn't have groveled like this, right?

"Huh~ Interesting..." Robin leaned back in his chair and looked Charvier up and down, "..I read the report on the contributions of the Grazing Rats Tribe, you did a good job."

"We were just following Your Excellency's teachings, we don't dare take any praise for ourselves." Charvier shook his head quickly

*Tak* *Tak*

Robin's light taps on the back of his chair sounded like drums beating in the hearts of Charvier and his two followers, and made Fugon and the rest even more nervous!

"Alright then, I don't see why not." Robin smiled and raised his finger, and an Oath Tablet came out and fell in front of Charvier, "Swear here to be completely loyal to me personally, and set death as a penalty in case of violation. You have no problem, right?"

"Of course not!!" Charvier quickly raised his head, grabbed the Oath Tablet, and quickly began the process. Finally, he and the two behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

With a slight movement, Robin pulled the Oath Tablet towards him and put it back in his space ring. He then pointed at Charvier and the two beside him, laughing, "You may stand. There is no longer such a thing as the Grazing Rats Tribe, you are now part of the True Beginning Empire."

lightsnοvεl "...Yes, Your Excellency." Charvier and the other two felt a shiver when they heard these words, there is no more Grazing Rats Tribe?! But they bowed again and returned to their seats quietly anyway... 

They had sworn allegiance out of fear of the Demon army anyway and not out of love for the justice of their new Emperor. It was better for the name of the Grazing Rats Tribe to disappear than for the entire tribe to be eaten by those hellish monsters!

Fugn looked at Hadyar with Dibas with the corner of his eyes as if to tell them, *Didn't I tell you that wants us to be slaves?* But neither he nor anyone else dared to say a word out loud.

"Well, it looks like we won't need these for now," Robin put one of the four scrolls aside and then looked at the rest of the clan leaders, "It's your turn... Should I start distributing or do you have something to say?"

All the tribe delegates looked at each other, and then Debas asked nervously, "...Your Excellency, may I ask what will happen to the Grassland Rat Tribe's quota now that they have joined you? Will it be doubled or something?"

"This is none of your business, and they no longer have lands or property of their own to double it for them anyway." Robin laughed and then moved the dagger again, this time blurring the boundaries between the Grazing Rats Tribe and Tree Father Descartes, merging them.

Debas looked down and grabbed both of his knees as if he was about to crush them. He knew he had to make a fateful decision now, "...So will they take any additional benefits that we won't take? Will they be considered soldiers who failed to collect points and will have to wait for the next war to get anything? Will they be forced to emigrate from their lands or be treated like second class citizens? will they still have their own army?! Please answer, Your Excellency, perhaps the answer will help us make a decision here."

Robin shrugged, "I have no need for your decision. We had an agreement. Take your share of the contributions and leave if you wish, no one will touch a hair on you, you have my word." 

"Your Excellency, please! this is not a conversation works!" Depas felt extremely frustrated at this point

Robin looked at Debas with disdain, "...Don't think I don't understand your little tricks, I just don't see the need to play alone. At the beginning of the war, I did not harm any of you and told you to just accompany my army, kill YOUR enemy, and get a reward for it, I did not force you to join me at that time or threaten you in any way. Now, almost 6 years have passed, and you have fought alongside the Empire's army long enough, You still can't make a decision? If you still want more promises, benefits, and flowery words, then you are simply dreaming."

"But... But..!!" Debas began to mutter, but couldn't find a word to relate

Hadyar and even Fugon next to him started sweating, it's clear that Emperor Robin knows what they're thinking, and it's even more clear that he doesn't give a damn...

They understand his words, how is it possible that they have not yet understood the power of the Empire? Their weapons, their talismans, their cultivation techniques, everything is diverse and everything is much stronger than what they know, they know for a fact that the only thing the locals have an age at right now is their numbers and the beasts' battalions.

They simply didn't think about the possibility that there were other armies that the Empire could summon and for a simple reason that they were almost annihilated several times during the two years of siege and no reinforcement came to them... And of course, they also had not witnessed the horror of the Draco Flock when put to action yet.

But on the other side, there are the armies of all the Tree Fathers and the human alliance side by side, and this combined army, in their view, is not even slightly weaker than the army of the Empire!

Another problem is that Emperor Robin doesn't even try to attract them to his side...

What is the solution... What is the solution...

As the pressure inside the hall increased, Billy's voice was heard: "Rob-Amm, Your Excellency, why don't you tell everyone about your future plans for the Grazing Rats Tribe? I think the generals here will be grateful to know what will happen to them. Will they join our army first and take the golden weapons and armor to participate in the war and start collecting points, or maybe you will give them hundreds of our Flawless Law Techniques? Oh, don't you say that they will move on to see our other planets directly and expand their horizons? I support the idea of giving them a break, why make them battle as soon as they join us? Our armies on the other planets are ready to annihilate the Tree Fathers at any time you want anyway."
