Blood Oath
"This…"
"But…"
The two of them were taken aback with what I just said. My words were easy to understand, as I intended to let those coming after Lang to clash with this lord's forces here.
And that meant I'd use this lord's forces to fight against others without losing anything. Facing a few lords wouldn't be a great trouble, and yet it seemed the number of lords coming was simply too much to handle.
I also got something else to worry about other than those incoming lords; which was protecting my own territory.
There were lots of lords and their armies heading towards my land at this moment.
I got that they underestimated my little lizard, but I also had to be ready to step in if things went south somehow.
And that was one of the main reasons behind me accepting that middle aged man's offer.
He was straightforward in his offer, knowing without fight his real place and the limits of his abilities.
