Bored Gamer in Other Worlds
489 Chapter 489 A Meet
'Only a fool would invite rabid wolves into their homes without ample confidence for survival.' Brody Cook thought but he kept these educated assumptions unto himself.
He looked at our very own Amira Walker and his estimations rose another notch on the strength of these unknown people who just appeared from out of nowhere.
The unexpected meeting started approximately at noon after lunch. There were about 200 or so representatives from different kingdoms and small nations.
There were even village leaders who dared enter and every last one of them was accepted with open arms. It was of course the android Amira Walker who presided over this gathering.
"We are a people called Astronians from a different world than yours."
"Due to some unforeseen catastrophe, we are forced to seek refuge in your lands."
"We are willing to provide annual taxes to the owner of these plains."
"Better yet, if they should allow it, we would very much like to buy this land as our own." Amira Walker stopped here and looked at a very old man with a distinctive insignia on his clothing.
This man wore the same markings of those two hundred and fifty men who sadly lost their lives just yesterday.
"The conflict between our kingdom of Trisal and you Astronians was unfortunate."
"There was no doubt that death could have been easily avoided but since the past cannot be changed, we can only ever move forward and learn from our mistakes."
"The Trisal Kingdom gives you this piece of land as a gift of friendship."
"May this mark the beginnings of our long and lasting alliance." The old man smiled after he announced this very good news unto the fray.
"That fucking Baron Cook is truly wise!"
"There goes our chances. Damn this old man!"
"Baron Brody Cook truly lives up to his name!" The people around discussed in low voices. They would have wanted to give these powerful Astronians a much bigger place than this dull plains.
The return for such a meager investment was to gain a strong ally beside them. This was indeed a rare excellent chance but alas, the wise baron knew how to capitalize on his advantages.
"On behalf of the Lord of Astro, I Amira Walker, thank you for this kind boon."
"We would of course bring a few simple gifts for your goodwill." Amira replied.
"This is the task given by my king, Lady Amira. All honor and praise belongs to the king of Trisal."
Baron Brody Cook bowed slightly on his seat as if to show that he was but a mere servant of this entire affair.
"Then please send my gratitude to your great king, Mr..." Amira paused here.
"The name is Baron Brody Cook, my Lady." Thus, this was how everything started. After that, the trade talks began.
The Astronians would buy goods and supplies such as fresh meat or even livestock so that they could raise their own food.
Although they had enough to survive for many years but it was of course better to start trading now since there would come a time for an end of their cold supplies.
Almost every power in attendance promised to send myriad products in the next day. No one was dumb amongst them as so they all hoped to befriend this mighty force from another world.
It was already 5 in the afternoon when the meeting almost concluded.
But before it could end, some of the brave ones could not help but ask a very important question that was on the minds of the smart messengers in this place.
"Lady Amira, our Xurin Kingdom would love to purchase a few weapons from your hands."
A stout man stated as his eyes roamed around the many mounted guns in the perimeter of the camp.
They could not have been more obvious since they looked like deadly towers of doom amidst the residential area on these green fields.
"I apologize but we are not able to sell our weapons unto the natives in this world."
"But if we get enough materials and resources, we would be able to recreate some of our technology and impart them unto all of you.
They may not be weapons but they could very much improve the way of living of your people." Amira Walker responded.
To give weapons of mass destruction unto these natives would only promote more death in the wrong hands. As for now, it was enough to arm them with bows and swords.
Although there were magicians and wizards in existence but they were destined to be few compared to the numbers of mortal souls on this planet.
"We shall give you large territories in our Xurin Kingdom, my Lady. We shall also pay you handsomely of course.
Please reconsider or else we will be forced to resort to other viable means." The stout representative from Xurin laid a subtle threat behind his words.
Alas, this was mercilessly ignored by our very own Amira Walker.
"I am also helpless in this aspect. I cannot put our Astronian weapons on the market." Amira replied frankly.
"Then i hope that you won't regret your decisions today, Lady Amira." The pair of Xurin delegates stood up and left without another word.
"..." Everyone else sat in silence after that. They all knew of how ambitious and ruthless the kingdom of Xurin was.
"Lady Amira, I hope that you would take the Xurin Kingdom seriously."
"They are known to be brutal in their ways. They will surely attempt to get what they want." Baron Brody Cook sent a word of warning unto the ears of Amira Walker.
The many wars on these lands started because of Xurin's thirst for power. Its history was filled with rivers of blood.
"Thank you. I will keep a closer eye on them." Amira Walker nodded and before long, the meeting was concluded as a success.
All the while, the people from Astro were not allowed to mingle with these native inhabitants and vice versa. There was a language barrier after all.
"I hope Xurin does what is expected of them and offends these Astronians soon."
Baron Brody Cook whispered under his breath as he could already predict what would happen in the near future. He left with a big grin on his old face.
