“I would like to request negotiations between the two empires to return Baek Do-hyeon and Jae-young. The terms of the negotiation were an alliance of the three great empires. “We intend to proceed with the contract on an equal footing, under mutual agreement, regardless of A and B.”
Originally, the one with the highest ranking was supposed to be the winner. In Elix, national power was directly related to life, so A and B were openly divided, and the terms and conditions of the contract were not equal.
However, Sehyun presented equal conditions to the two. A relationship of helping, cooperating, and living together. It was the imperial alliance that Sehyeon pursued.
“… “I will deliver it to Isis.”
“Hyung, I’m fine with Eul! Really! But bro, can I please call Zenka? Zenka is very anxious right now. I can feel the sensitivity up to here. Because of the waves here, she can’t make up for me and I can’t contact her at all. “You’re probably very anxious.”
“The official anchorage permit will be delivered soon. “Don’t worry, my brother will take care of it.”
“Proceed with the contract provided by the Black Empire.”
“Is that okay?”
“As you can see, she was caught.”
“Brother, can you create a portal so I can come here every day?”
Baek Do-hyun’s irritated gaze went straight to Lee Jae-young. Lee Jae-young frowned the bridge of his nose and threatened once, then quickly became a gentle sheep and looked back at Se-hyeon.
“I will also include an alliance portal in the contract that you can access at any time. If it’s okay with Baek Do-hyun, you can add it, right? “The situation is like this, and you don’t know what will happen.”
“Do whatever you feel like.”
Baek Do-hyun crossed his arms and closed his eyes, as if telling him to take care of it. Unlike her voice of annoyance, her expression seemed strangely satisfied.
After the conversation with the two people was roughly over, Se-hyeon looked back at Kwak Jeong-han and Yoon Je-ha who were standing blankly on one side. Judging from the bewildered expression on his face as he couldn’t keep up with the situation, it seemed like he hadn’t fully grasped the situation yet.
Se-hyeon also recommended seats to Kwak Jeong-han and Yoon Je-ha. Unlike Kwak Jeong-han, who sat in a polite manner, Yoon Je-ha sat sternly while paying attention to those around him in response to Se-hyeon’s words.
“I think Gapjun Kim will be listening there?”
“Whether it spreads on the floor or not, words or tongue.”
Sehyun didn’t recommend it any further because the sight of her sitting spread out on the floor near the window and making noises was so bad.
“Mr. Kwak Jeong-han and Mr. Yoon Je-ha. And, including Mr. Kim Gap-Jun, we would like to give these three people the status of temporary residents of our empire. “Does anyone have any objections?”
“We… .”
“I… .”
“No, that dog… .”
“No? “Then we will proceed like this.”
Sehyeon turned away from the three pairs of dumbfounded eyes looking at me and stretched out his hand into the air. Then, not wanting anyone to stop him, he quickly opened the ‘management window’ and moved his hand to classify the men in front of him as temporary residents.
The ‘management window’ was a type of information window that could manage and participate in all overall matters, including training of retainers, expansion of buildings, and management of residents. Classification of residents was also done through this process.
When they categorized what they could do right away and then pressed OK, the shoulders of Kwak Jeong-han, Yoon Je-ha, and Kim Gap-jun jumped. Most likely, a window informing them of the current situation must have appeared in front of them.
“What? Instructor candidate? “Why am I a candidate for instructor!”
“uh… A disciple of blacksmith Keppel… ?”
“I am… “It’s the food procurement team again.”
The jobs given to them were instructor candidate, blacksmith’s disciple, and food procurement assistant. There was a good reason why Sehyun gave them such a position.
“I’m the boss, so everyone should do this. Mr. Kwak Jeong-han, I would like some fish from now on. “I have a disease that makes it impossible for me to eat anything other than fish caught by Kwak Jeong-han.”
“… “Yes, please leave it to me.”
Kwak Jeong-han looked somewhat shocked, but accepted it without rejecting it. The problem is Kim Gap-jun, who is running wild alone.
“Mr. Pithecus, why do you refuse even when I give you good things?”
“What, instructor? Huh, okay, let’s find out who the instructor is. “What are you teaching about throwing techniques?”
“no.”
Sehyun lowered her gaze. Daffodils placed on a smooth marble table. The flowers in the vase were vivid. Sehyeon hoped that all empires would be protected and grow properly like this flower.
I also knew it was my arrogance. Some people would say that they could think that way because they were here, but they couldn’t deny it. In reality, Sehyun had the luxury of taking care of someone.
“… Mr. Kim Gap-Jun will be giving lessons on the founding of an empire to new players coming into the empire. I hope that Mr. Gap-Jun Kim will work hard as an instructor until they are able to stand on their own after receiving his teachings.”
Kim Gap-Jun had sense and experience in founding a village. Although he was defeated nine times due to mismatches with his species, it was said that he was talented enough to raise the empire to level 5.
Se-hyeon thought that Kim Gap-jun was perfect for the position. I may not be able to found an empire, but as a person with knowledge.
“That’s what I hope to happen.”
This was exactly the extent that Sehyun could give to powerless players. Rather than accepting it as an empire, it serves as a guide and shows the way forward. It’s a world where the might of the jungle is tough, but everyone should be given a chance.
“… What a fussy bastard, tsk. “The way you talk is so damn important.”
Kim Gap-Jun grumbled but did not get any more angry. Se-hyeon looked at Kim Gap-jun and then smiled at Yoon Je-ha, who glanced at me. Yoon Je-ha’s shoulder jumped.
“Jeha Yoon, would you like to come see your teacher with me later?”
“yes yes… !”
Perhaps he was very nervous, Yoon Je-ha’s pointed ears were trembling. Sehyeon tried to pretend not to notice and withdrew her gaze and cast one last glance at Ruhak, who was waiting in front of the door.
“Ruhak.”
“I will prepare an alliance contract along with anchoring permission.”
Even though it was just words, everyone felt an eerie feeling in the man’s voice. The only one who didn’t know that was Sehyun.
“For now, everyone has to stay here until the airship docks, so just wait one more day. Baek Do-hyun and Jae-young might not arrive until tomorrow.”
Jaeyoung Lee saw Sehyun get up from her seat and quickly stretched out her hand. However, Jaeyoung Lee felt an eerie feeling on the way and had to freeze his body. Lee Jae-young’s slightly trembling eyes moved in search of a creepy energy.
Baek Do-hyun also seemed to feel something and frowned as he looked towards the door. There was something there that I couldn’t figure out. thirst? Hunger? It was a darkness that could not be defined. I could smell a dark and unpleasant aura.
The gaze that had been so creepy as to be uncanny disappeared as soon as it turned towards Sehyeon. No, it was hidden.
“Everyone, enjoy your meal. “I’ll stop by again when I have time.”
The way he turned his back and left seemed completely unaware of the current situation. Still, no one could catch Sehyun. The eyes that concealed her true nature kept her mouth shut.
Everyone who was watching Sehyun’s back without even holding their breath gasped the moment the door closed. Kwak Jeong-han, Yoon Je-ha, and Kim Gap-jun were no different. A body that didn’t move as if it was tightly held by something. A feeling of intimidation pressing down on my shoulders.
No grand duke shows ‘that kind of’ strange obsession with the king. That wasn’t an obsession with the ‘King’. A personal desire, not a matter of the survival of the empire.
Others, no. At least it seemed that way in Baek Do-hyun’s eyes.
Perhaps because the pressure oppressing their bodies was clearly evident, everyone seemed frozen for a while and could not move from their seats. Only Lee Jae-young’s expression was tearful.
***
Negotiations took place late in the afternoon. This was because, unlike the ruling empire that could mentally communicate with Baek Do-hyeon, the sensitive monster empire did not respond to several negotiation proposals.
In the end, only after connecting directly with Jaeyoung Lee through a communicator did the Monster Empire slowly descend and anchor in the Black Empire’s air route.
In this way, the three great empires came together, and each king sat with the grand duke at a large round table.
Isis was behind Baek Do-hyeon, Zenka was behind Lee Jae-young, and Ruhak was behind Se-hyeon as a counselor and served as a guarantor for the negotiations.

“It’s a magic power contract. It is a contract that cannot be destroyed once written. The signature is engraved in the king’s blood, and each king takes turns signing all three copies. Each king cannot break the alliance without compromise and approval from the other empire, and the alliance is in effect indefinitely, but can be amended by agreement. Intentional breach of the contract directly leads to the fall of the empire, and this matter must be realized in accordance with the provisions of the contract.”
After finishing speaking, Ruhak distributed the contracts. As soon as the contract was placed in front of me, Sehyun picked it up and began to carefully look at the provisions. The most important things were equal status and cooperation, and provisions for retaliation in case the king was killed.
One more thing here. Even the alliance portal proposed by Jaeyoung Lee.
widely-
When I checked the contents of the three-page contract and put it down, Lee Jae-young and Baek Do-hyeon, who had finished checking first, were waiting and made eye contact.
After exchanging glances with Baek Do-hyun and Lee Jae-young, Se-hyeon extended his hand to the side. Sehyeon’s hand went into Ruhak’s grasp. Soon, a tingling pain spread over his index finger.
Baek Do-hyeon and Lee Jae-young had also entrusted their hands to the Archduke. Everyone cut the same index finger and let the blood drip onto the document. The blood-stained document was transferred to the person next to him.
As we each signed the contract with our own blood, white light seeped into the contract. It was a phenomenon that announced the effectuation of the contract upon its conclusion.
