Chapter 1009: Dots in the sky (11)


    ?


    Half an hourter, there were many wyverns that were gathered around the gate.


    All of them seemed like they were on guard just in case anything happened, but there was nothing that happened.


    In fact, the ones that were on the city walls had terrified looks on their faces.


    Though it would have been strange if they weren''t scared of being surrounded by wyverns like this.


    At first, it was only a single wyvern that came down, but after the king made his surrender deration, there were other wyverns that came down as well.


    Now, all of the wyvern riders were looking at the king with strange looks as if they couldn''t believe that he would just surrender like this. After all, there was no reason for the king to suddenly surrender like this.


    It seemed like a trap no matter how they looked at it.


    The one that jumped off his wyvern toe forward to talk to the king was Klein.


    Since he was the captain of the royal guards, he had been given fullmand of this operation to take down the three kingdoms. He should have been in the centralmand center watching over everything, but this situation was too strange that he had no choice but toe out.


    After jumping down, he narrowed his eyes to look at the king as if he was keeping a close eye on him.


    Then he said, "You want to surrender?"


    The way that he said this had a bit of a provocation to it, but there was also a bit of a confused tone to his voice since he really had no idea why he would surrender like this.


    The king nodded in agreement before saying, "Our Vikal Kingdom stands no chance in front of the might of your wyverns. The only way for our Vikal Kingdom to get out of this with little casualties is to surrender."


    Klein raised a brow when he heard this, but he slowly gave a nod.


    As for why he wasn''t surprised...


    Beforeing here, there was someone that had told him a few things, so he was prepared to hear this.


    Still, that didn''t stop him from feeling confused.


    In the end, since the king didn''t seem to be ying any tricks, he waved his hand at the one that was still riding his wyvern.


    This was one of the clerks that he had brought along with him at the request of that person that had prepared him. This clerk carefully came down from the wyvern''s back beforeing over to stand in between them.


    The king had his head down to show his submission, but he couldn''t help looking at the clerk as the clerk pulled something out.


    The clerk pulled out a piece of paper that he held in front of him, putting it right in between the king and Klein.


    Klein didn''t take this piece of paper as he said to the king, "These are the terms of surrender. As long as you sign this, you will no longer be the king and our kingdom will officially bring you into our fold."


    The king wasn''t surprised to hear this, he was just surprised that they had prepared such a thing so quickly.


    Still, he had no intentions of rejecting such a thing since he had already been nning on submitting to the Kite Kingdom. The king just calmly took the piece of paper from the clerk and looked it over.


    After he was done reading, he looked up at Klein with a look of shock.


    Giving a gulp, the king asked, "Is this really the contract?"


    Klein just gave a calm nod in response without saying anything.


    The king had to look down again at the contract and make sure that he wasn''t mistaken.


    The ministers and generals all misunderstood this action from the king and soon... "Your majesty! You don''t have to worry about us! We''ll fight them to the end!" One of the generals suddenly shouted before pulling out a hidden dagger.


    With the way that he acted, it really seemed like he wanted to fight to hisst breath against the wyvern riders.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    But before anyone could do anything, the king suddenly went forward to p the dagger out of his hand to the shock of the general.


    The general just looked at the king and said, "Your majesty, we..."


    The king ignored him as he turned back to Klein to say, "Sir Envoy, I apologize for my subordinate. I hope that you will not misunderstand our intention to surrender."


    Klein hadn''t made a single move even though he saw the general pulling out his weapon. There was even a faint smile that was on his face when he saw this, which the king misunderstood.


    The king picked up the dagger and pointed it at himself as he said, "Sir Envoy, please allow me to make up for the mistake of my subordinate."


    But before he could do anything drastic, Klein said, "It''s fine, it''s clear that he''s loyal to you, which is why he acted that way. This is a kind of loyalty that I can appreciate."


    Then his voice became colder as he said, "Of course, it''s not something that will be tolerated a second time."


    The king quickly nodded in agreement before throwing the dagger away.


    Then before any of his subordinates could say anything, he quickly raised the contract in front of them while saying, "Take a look at this first."


    The ones that were in front saw the contract first and the moment that they read it, all of them had shocked looks on their faces as they said, "This is...this is...this is too favourable to us!"


    The others behind them were confused when they heard this, but they quickly understood what the ones in front were talking about.


    The contract wasn''t one of absolute surrender, but rather conditional surrender.


    It wasn''t even one that would humiliate their Vikal Kingdom.


    It seemed that the Kite Kingdom was serious about integrating the Vikal Kingdom into their


    territory.


    It seemed that there was nothing for them to worry about.


    With that, the third kingdom fell.
