The Overlord of Blood and Iron

Chapter 224

Chapter 224: Into the Dark Forest

Marriage .

The crowning quest .

The Awakening quest .

As well as the Tagore soldiers . Leaving these things behind, Kang Chul-In immediately headed back towards the Pandemonium region .

Before getting into the Teleportation circle, Kang Chul-In vowed to himself that he would save Kim Sung-Hee .

Was this not a cool and badass woman?

The passion and the determination to get stronger .

Kim Sung-Hee had risked her life in order to gain strength, and this was something that Kang Chul-In extremely respected .

And not only that,

"If you save my daughter, I will help you expand your business and go overseas . For Old Man Kwon, it would be difficult to go anywhere other than maybe like Japan . "

" . . . "

"Sung-Hee is my precious daughter . For that child…"

"So, you wanna save your daughter and put your hands in my business?"

" . . . !"

"Really, do you think that half-assed acting would work against me? If you're going to do that, look for someone else . "

"Pretty smart for a youngster . I thought you were just a strong…"

"Do you wanna die?"

" . . . !"

"This is between me and Kim Sung-Hee; it's none of your business . "

"But I'm the father of…"

"The next time you continue to speak, I will break your teeth . Understand?"

"A-Alright… Please…"

He didn't feel good that Kim Sung-Hee's father was trying to use his daughter as a potential way to make money . And not only that, the fact that he was trying to use Kang Chul-In to make money as well didn't sit well with him either .

"Let's go, husband . "

The Ninetails pulled Kang Chul-In .

"Is it ready?"

The reason this was happening was that his servants argued that he should enjoy the company of the Ninetails . After all, it would only make sense if she was to become his wife .

Well, it shouldn't be too bad anyway .

For once, Kang Chul-In agreed with them .

The Ninetails had come from a completely different environment than him .

There were a lot of things they had to work on .

"Huhu, a trip with my husband… I'm so excited . "

The Ninetails twisted her body, excited .

Boing .

The touch of something soft and bouncy landed on Kang Chul-In's arm .

"Why aren't you talking, husband?"

" . . . We're in front of my subordinates right now . "

Saying that, Kang Chul-In tried to take out his arm from the Ninetails's embrace .

"Hmph, mean!"

The Ninetails pouted .

But it wasn't the expression of someone that was truly depressed or angry, because the Ninetails herself knew that Kang Chul-In had become much warmer compared to when they had first met .

"I will be back . I'm leaving everything up to you . Understood?'

"Yes, Milord . Have a good time!"

The subordinates spoke in unison .

***

A few hours after that, Kang Chul-In had left .

Timothy's body shook, staring at a document .

It said the following:

Amount borrowed: 120,000 gold

Sale: 20,000 gold (20%)

Final fee: 100,000 gold

Payment form: Lump sum payment .

From: Overlord of the Dorado territory, Lee Chae-Rin

"W-What is this…"

"Obviously, it's an invoice . "

The envoy and the foreign minister of the Dorado territory, the Dwarf Golgo, said .

M-Milord! Are you planning on killing me?!

Timothy inwardly despaired .

To think they had to immediately pay 100,000 gold at once… to him, who was supposed to manage the money in the territory, this was like the sky collapsing on him .

No, no . . . Let's calm down, Timothy . Was I not the one to help the territory when it was in a state of poverty? There must be a method!

Timothy tried his best to remain cool-headed .

There had to be a solution to this .

And,

"Payment over time!"

Timothy played his final card .

"Is it not possible to pay this over time? Over 36 months, or even 12…"

"No . "

But Golgo answered immediately .

"W-Why?!"

"Because apparently, Overlord Kang Chul-In said that a man should pay at once . "

"H-Hiik!"

Hearing Golgo's words, Timothy started to choke,

And…

Tulsuk…

Fell to the ground, clutching the back of his neck .

***

At the same time in the office of the Bifrost Territory . . .

"We need to group up . "

After staring at the map for a couple of hours, Albrecht Vilhelm finally made a decision . His gaze was on the Ishtar region, where Kang Chul-In's Laputa territory was located .

"There isn't any Lord that can withstand Kang Chul-In's army right now . It is obvious that if we don't ally together, we will all fall eventually, like Baruk Al-Yusuf and Aleister…"

There were Overlords that had previously fallen to Kang Chul-In before, and as the second ranked Overlord, Kang Chul-In was extremely threatening to him .

There was only one answer left .

"Alliance, we need to work together!"

To group up with other Lords, with him as the leader, that was the only method left .

"Hey!"

"Yes, Milord!"

As Albrecht Vilhelm shouted, one of his subordinates responded .

"Immediately get the envoys and messengers together and request a call with any Lords that have a good… no, all Lords, even if they don't have a good relationship with us . "

"Yes, Milord!"

Vilhelm's decision was what would decide the future of Pangaea .

This would be the start of the Gullveig Alliance, which had been one of the 3 forces that controlled a third of Pangaea in the past!

***

Along with the Ninetails and Dorian, Kang Chul-In headed towards the Dark Forest .

"Milord, from here we'll lead the way . "

Roughly twenty White Lion Knights bowed towards Kang Chul-In respectfully .

"Oh, right . "

While they were walking in the forest, Dorian suddenly spoke .

"Kang Chul-In, I saw something strange . "

"Something strange?"

'Yeah, there was something weird in the Necromantic Bay . I took a picture of it as well!"
