Translator: 549690339

The Pigskin jelly incident was just a minor episode. After Otto could skillfully control two magic puppets at the same time, he lost interest in cooking personally.

At the same time, under his urging, Morey quickly arranged for a dwarf magic apprentice who had mastered soul splitting to serve Otto.

Of course, the soul splitting technique had been modified according to Otto’s requirements.

Although it was still a watered-down version, this dwarf could split a soul into four parts.

It seemed that, in terms of learning magic, dwarves were much stronger than kobolds.

Now, Otto was starting to familiarize himself with controlling multiple heads with the same thoughts, which was even more challenging than controlling two magic puppets with different perspectives.

At the moment, Otto could only control two heads at the same time and couldn’t ensure proficiency in both.

Today, the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce visited again, led by Black Rose and Black Spirit.

In addition to the weapons and equipment that were in short supply in all countries, they had everything else that the Land of the Soaring Dragon required.

This also included the human slaves that Otto had recently requested. Recently, due to the chaos of war, many people had become homeless and sold themselves into slavery.

Even the price of human slaves had become much cheaper than that of other humanoid races.

In the council chamber, Black Rose looked exhausted, with dark circles under her eyes.

Otto asked, “What’s wrong? Are things not going well recently?”

Black Rose nodded, “Tal and Dilant have fallen, and now Lyte is attacking the

Farrand Kingdom.”

She rubbed her somewhat hazy head and continued, “The Farrand Kingdom is the only land route to the Felton Kingdom and the two empires. Harvest Bay is now firmly controlled by Lyte.

All the chambers of commerce in Black Gold City have been having a hard time. The Farrand royalty has recently forcibly levied the weapons, equipment, and even property of all merchants in their territory.

If this war continues, it’ll be impossible to do business!”

Through the reconnaissance from the Soaring Dragon Legion, Otto only knew that Dilant, which also bordered Nolan Forest, had fallen. He hadn’t expected the new King of Lyte to be so fierce as to even destroy Tal as well.

It seemed that the dwarven equipment from Mido had greatly enhanced the strength of the Lyte army. Perhaps that was also the reason why the Lyte army was still stationed at the foot of the Skyreach Mountains.

Black Rose had more to say.

“After conquering Tal and Dilant, the new King of Lyte began to forcibly conscript soldiers in these two countries. Now his army has tripled in number.”

At this point, Black Rose said helplessly, “I really don’t know how he managed to make those people who hate him to the bone willing to work for him.”

“Perhaps I can give you an answer!”

Otto nodded to Shasharu on the side, and the old lizardman handed Black Rose a small notebook.

It recorded the recent research by Sofia and Moray on the Lyte soldiers and those strange pills, but many important pieces of information, such as the composition of Dragon Vein, were removed.

Now, the information that Black Rose could learn from it was limited, and she could only roughly know that the new King of Lyte had mastered a peculiar pill that could greatly enhance the combat abilities of soldiers.

Meanwhile, the disadvantages of this pill were listed, such as the effect of impairing the user’s mental state during its action and the weakness after the effect ended. Prolonged use could even lead to addiction.

Seeing this, Black Rose probably guessed the reason why those people from Tal or Dilant would be willing to work for the new King of Lyte – it must be because of this addictive strange pill.

Very important information…

Black Rose gratefully knelt before Otto, excitedly saying, “Honored Silver Dragon Lord, Bauhinia will never forget your kindness.”

Otto looked at her silently, thinking that the Farrand Kingdom was really incompetent. He had hoped that they would be so weakened that he could just go and snatch the few true dragons under the new King of Lyte’s command.

But then, Black Rose suddenly said, “Honored Silver Dragon Lord, I wonder if you would be willing to send troops to attack the rear of the Lyte Kingdom?”

Otto looked at Black Rose with some puzzlement, and then laughed, “Human, I’d advise you not to be too greedy. The only reason I bestow grace upon you is that you have performed well recently and brought me a lot of convenience.

But that’s it. In my eyes, you are no different from those bearded Lyte people. You’re just reptiles who can walk upright!”

He didn’t want to get involved in this war prematurely, and besides, the Soaring Dragon Legion, which had just gone through a major battle, had not yet fully recovered.

Even after incorporating many other monster clans, the number of monsters he could use was only around 30,000.

Black Rose seemed to want to try again, “Honored Silver Dragon Lord, if you are willing to lend a hand, we can offer you a satisfactory reward! Be it gold coins, jewels, or various materials urgently needed in the Land of the Soaring Dragon…”

“Should I take this as a threat?”

Otto sneered, “Are you saying that if I disagree, you will turn against me and stop transporting various materials to the Land of the Soaring Dragon?”

Black Rose shrank her body and reluctantly said, “I’m sorry, Honored Silver Dragon Lord. I was being presumptuous. Let’s just continue as before…”

“You seem to be very concerned about this war.”

Otto asked curiously, “Could it be that the survival of Farrand is also related to you?”

Black Rose explained, “As mentioned before, Farrand is an essential route to Felton and the two empires. Even if we choose to go through the Dawn Forest, we need to pass through Farrand, Dilant, or Tal.

The new King of Lyte has a very bad attitude towards our chambers of commerce. Even if the Farrand Kingdom levies the property of merchants, they would at least spare the lives of the chamber of commerce masters.

However, that bastard new King of Lyte would not even spare the lives of the nobles and merchants of Tal and Dilant. All of them have been killed by him.

If the Farrand Kingdom were to fail, our only option would be to go fishing in the Gale Sea Area or go to the northernmost Snow Field to do business with the Norton Kingdom and the Frost Giants.”

Of course, there was also the Land of the Soaring Dragon in Nolan Forest, but whether it was the Land of the Soaring Dragon, the Norton Kingdom, or those Frost Giants, their potential trades were pitifully scarce.

In most cases, the three forces mentioned above were mainly providers of goods rather than consumers.

After sending Black Rose away, Otto called Sofia and Moray over with a serious look on his face.

“What now… Don’t you know I’m very busy lately?”

With a bad attitude, Moray glared at Otto. After being marked with the Blood Covenant, he became even more reckless..
