Chapter 672: Negotiations
672 Chapter 672: Negotiations
Eric seemed mesmerized by the beauty, unable to recollect himself. It was to the point that the Envoy thought that Eric would be eating Aisha leaving no bones if he weren't there.
While Aisha had been sent with him to break the 'ice' and mesmerize Eric, he still understood his liege's obsession over her, so he couldn't allow that to happen.
With that in mind, he couldn't help but break the deathly silence and mindful games by coughing lightly, while he said,
"Your Excellency, my Liege is curious to know the details of the big deal you can offer him. So much, that he even sent his favorite to-be-concubine to learn of the matter!"
The Envoy wanted to strike two birds with one stone, as he pointed the conversation in the right direction while announcing Aisha's position and status as well.
What he meant was simple, you can look but you can't touch or have improper thoughts without offering something of the same value.
Eric just threw the envoy a disinterested look, while returning his burning gaze toward the redhead, before laying on his back on top of the water, and saying,
"Demonstrate for the Envoy!"
The Envoy was a bit displeased with how Eric acted, especially with the fact that he had been treated as invisible air, but the next moment he couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.
Out of nowhere, two of Eric's guards walked forward, one of them brought out his dagger and without the least concern cut a deep wound on his arm.
As if that wasn't enough, he made sure that the bone on his arm was showing, before taking out a green pill and swallowing it down.
In a matter of seconds upon minutes the flesh started wriggling about, the blood stopped, and the cuts were disappearing as everything was re-connecting once again as it was previously.
Before 5 minutes were gone, there were no more wounds on the guard's arms, and even less any signs of the cuts with the exception of the dried blood.
One had to know that while with evolution the regenerative skills of experts and powerhouses reached frightening levels, so it wouldn't matter much.
Even though further tests would be needed to verify the effectiveness of the pill, for those low-level minions, these pills would be lifesaving.
Their worth increased even more, the moment that one thought of all those mercenaries fighting those beasts, and animals that had grown stronger as well.
Not only the Envoy, but also Aisha couldn't help but look at the guard's arm with a look full of incredulity and stupefaction, as the second guard took a slightly bluish pill, and sat in lotus position.
The Envoy and Aisha thought that the recovery pill was already astonishing, but feeling the changes in the guard's aura they couldn't help but become even more stupefied.
This new pill actually helped experts in increasing their internal energy, or better said in their evolution towards a higher realm.
While its effects could be minute on a powerhouse of Realm 6, or Realm 7, for their minions it would be just like a 1 million-dollar lottery ticket to a poor man.
They would be able to increase the power of their force by several times, which meant that they would be able to expand their reach even further.
No matter which pill one took to the market, or tried to Auction, it would disappear right away. Who wouldn't want to have a second life and greater power?
This couldn't even be considered as a big deal, this was a humongous deal for their Sultanat and their Sultan.
Most probably if the Sultan was here himself, he would have already either tried to make Eric his sworn brother or killed him to get his hands on the formula.
It was that precious!
As for Aisha!?
No matter how beautiful she was, her worth would never come even close to one of these pills.
"This…"
"The green pill is what our Master calls the recovery pill and has healing effects for experts up to Realm 6, with the best estimate being 10% for such an expert, but never lower than 4%.
Of course, the lower one goes down the rank, the better the effects will be. According to our estimations, the pill's effect is at least 10 times greater for each rank.
The second pill, the bluish one is called Energy Gathering Pill, its effectiveness is below that of a Recovery Pill, as it can only help a Realm 6 expert by 1-4%.
Also, the effectiveness of the pill can only increase by 6 or 7 times for each rank, also differently from Recovery Pill, everyone can only take 10 of them, with their effectiveness falling by 10% each time.
These two pills are business that our Master has to offer to your Sultan, the capacity we can provide them to you would be 100 pills per month combined, you can decide on the ration yourselves!
Now, why don't you go and discuss this matter with your Sultan and give us a satisfactory answer soon?
While I don't want to offend you, I don't think this is a matter you can decide easily on your own, especially regarding a satisfactory price that the Sultan will be willing to pay as well!"
It was the driver who introduced the two pills and made sure to say everything in one go, as he clearly showed the Envoy his place as well.
Just looking at this guy's face and expressions it could be said that he wasn't really good in negotiations, and whatever deal they came up with, it would be useless.
It was clear that the Sultan wanted to test the waters with this guy, and if the business was too absurd then he could just throw this guy under the bus and deny it.
Most probably the Envoy understood this matter as well, as he immediately laughed embarrassedly as he said,
"Of course, of course, it's just that these two pills are so extraordinary that I don't think anyone will believe me, heheheeh~!"
"You don't have to worry about that, my Master is quite the generous guy, so he has already decided to give you two of each pill for free and wait for news!
In the meanwhile, to make sure that we don't run away, why don't you allow Miss Aisha to stay behind and keep an eye on him!?"
While the driver said so, someone from behind him came with a small jade box, most probably containing the four pills, as the Envoy couldn't help but feel his heartbeat fasten like he was a racehorse.
With this great news he was bringing to his liege, he was about to go up by a few ranks. As for Aisha, he didn't really care much about her now.
In comparison to these two pills, she was just like a speck of dust that would dirt the Sultan's shoes.
"Of course, of course, I will take my leave now and return as soon as possible!"
With that said, he immediately ran by himself for the door, while hiding the jade box in his clothes, just like hiding his just-born baby from assassins.
…
"It seems like you were abandoned just for four useless pills beautiful, it truly pains my heart!"
Just as the Envoy ran away, Eric returned his attention to the redhead beauty once again, while saying those words in a sarcastic tone.
"You see it as me being abandoned, I see it as me being finally free from those low lives, Mister…"
"You can call me Mister E!"
"So, rather than a sour moment, it's actually quite a happy and sweet moment for me, Mister E!"
Saying these words, Aisha approached the pool, seating on the side, while watching intently at Eric with a gaze saying that she was totally indifferent to life.
Hearing that, Eric showed her a comprehensive sly smile, while he approached the side of the pool, pulling her inside and then pushing her to the side inside the pull with his body pressing on her, he said,
"You don't think that I will be as much of a pushover as that Sultan, do you beautiful!?
After all, your immature fox bloodline is completely useless to me even if it matures properly! Not to mention, that I don't owe you anything to let you mature your bloodline!"
His words had the expected response, as the beautiful redhead couldn't believe her ears and eyes, and she started to fear Eric for real.
Not even the Sultan was able to see through her so easily, and even less claim that her ancient bloodline would be useless.
The biggest and only trump card she had been holding all this while had turned completely useless, and she was nothing more than a small sheep waiting for the wolf to bite her with his teeth.
"Thi-this… Please don't! Please, I beg you, not until my bloodline matures, please!"
"Heheheheh~! Finally it started becoming interesting, but why should I even hear you out!?"
