Chapter 618 We’ll Establish An Empire
Currently, at the Zahara Kingdom's throne room, seated side by side were the Burac King and the Zahara King, treated as equals. Each side only had one guard. Both had unanimously decided to use their sons to protect themselves.
After all, they didn't want the details of their discussions to be leaked to others, including their guards.
After close to three hours of pleasantries, the Zahara King stared at the Burac King and said, "I know your purpose of visits and I don't intend to question."
"So you knew..." The Burac King sighed, having gotten close enough with the Zahara King to treat each other as acquaintances.
"And I don't intend to stop you." The Zahara King said, much to the surprise of the Burac King and his son, "You heard me right. I won't stop your plans."
"Are you...serious?" The Burac King thought for a moment if it was a scheme, but in the Zahara Kingdom, the Zahara King exercised home-ground advantage. If he truly wanted to plot, he would have gone about it in a hundred different ways.
"Kings!" The Zahara King stood up and walked a few steps to the side, saying with a somewhat sombre tone, "Our titles are grand. But only we know the reality. Our Kingdoms tether on the verge of annihilation all the time."
He stared at the Burac King as the eyes of the two men moistened, "At any moment, a Pranic Beast invasion could destroy us. We simply aren't strong enough to resist it."
"My ancestors fled fourteen times before establishing the Zahara Kingdom. We could only settle in this weak region to avoid stronger Pranic Beast invasions." His eyes reddened as the Zahara King said, "We were desperate to grow stronger, having no hope for a bright future. But it all changed when he arrived."
"A Deity! There's no word that could describe him better." The Zahara King stared at the Burac King, "By relying on him, the Zahara Kingdom now has a future. And I extend this opportunity to you too. Or rather, I intend to give it to everyone that has arrived."
"I am honoured by your initiative, but I have my doubts." The Burac King calmed down his thumping heart and spoke his reasoning, "Let me set aside my objective and say this. There'll be a lot of chaos due to this. We'll be taking a cut of what belongs to you..."
"Are you sure about that?" The Zahara King laughed all of a sudden, stunning the others, "Why do you think we're having a Kingdom-wide selection?"Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)
"Isn't it to present an opportunity for everyone equally?" The Burac King frowned.
"Nope," The Zahara King shook his head, "Do you think that makes sense? If something like an opportunity exists, do you believe the ministers, nobles, generals, and merchants of my Kingdom wouldn't monopolise it for their benefit and other agendas?"
"Then..." The Burac King thought of a possibility and said, "Is that true?"
"Yes," The Zahara King nodded, "We only seek the absolutely talented, for they'll bear children that would wield Gold Grade strength. The Wean Clan has a certain number of people in mind. And I'm afraid the Zahara Kingdom alone doesn't have enough talents worthy enough to join the Wean Clan."
"I get the full picture now." The Burac King let out a long exhale and said, "This is good news for us. We'll be content as long as one of our people succeeds in joining the Wean Clan."
"Actually, I have a proposition to you, Burac King." The Zahara King picked up a chest from the throne and placed it before the Burac King, opening it to reveal a mineral inside, one at the sight of which intimidated him. "Do you..."
