King Leonidas Lionheart (5)

"Fulfilling the king's demand? I guess..."

Klaus acted absolutely clueless like some kid caught doing a wild act as he said those words with soft tone in his voice with complete 180° of his ice cold frosty personality that can freeze fire itself just a moment ago

"What kind of bullshit-!?"

"Ah... It's his blood angel phase I see"

"He is still going through puberty?"

The fairies just commented without any flinch while including Sol, all the beings who watched the scene and heard Klaus were left completely stunned and petrified over their spots and next moment Sol immediately rushed towards Klaus while shouting

"What kind of answer is that!? Why are you pounding the King like some sort of hooligan like this!? Please make distance!"

Klaus heard her and with disappointment stood up and left Leonidas alone while releasing a deep sigh and as he observed Sol again an amused smile flashed on his face

Sol seemed to be looking in complete panic with her facial expressions and seemed to be wearing white shirt to match her style, leather jeans that tightly grabbed her legs making it easier to make swift and faster movements and leather boots along with a long slim sword tied to her belt

'A sword huh, I had almost forgotten after spending so many years in the wild, in the novel despite coming from Walpurgis family, the family known in world for producing the top grade mages and negotiators for rulers

Sol Walpurgis was a bit of a unique character on her own, she couldn't use magic as others, at best the talent for magic was just average but on other hand she was top class talent for path of swords hence she persuaded that path

Although she is stuck at Tier 6 right now, she is still a top talent that can carry her own weight to reach even Tier 9 given her enough time and opportunity for it...'

Klaus smirked thinking all about his own fiance as Sol herself was continuously scolding him which was straight up getting completely ignored by Klaus without any second thought

"How can you act so irresponsible like this Duke! How do you plan to compensate for all damages that have fallen in here!? The condition of King Leonidas is really serious! What if they decide to declare war over the Empire for your actions!?"

Sol kept shouting over Klaus, she was straight up trying to scold himself in a very severe tone and with big words herself so that no other beastman will say any words to him in here right now or else the matter will be changed from damage to King to assault over the King and will stretch pretty far

"Sigh... I was only doing what King Leonidas has demanded and agreed upon, a man doesn't back off on his words so I don't think he will be planning any war against us, I apologise for informal acts of my future wife your majesty"

Klaus sighed as King Leonidas was seen slowly sitting back again on ground and returning to his human form after being healed up again by elixirs and Klaus's healing but he was flinching as his gaze met with Klaus's again

"Ha-hahaha! Indeed... It's as the Duke Brahm said, I demanded for this duel..."

He was clearly in low spirits and was still groaning a little because of sort of tension in his brain as unconsciously the memories of a few moments ago flashed through his mind

"He's pretty fucked up in mind..."

"Hella scared isn't he?"

"Wow, Klaus's evil points have increased~"

The fairies seen having with their commentaries as always while Sol watching the reaction seemed even more concerned for future ahead and gave one deep thunderous gaze over to Klaus, her red face was filled with rage marks as she did that changed her face towards the King Leonidas again

"Then as per our terms we will be having that upper hand over trade negotiations inside, we demand reduction over tax by 5% and exemption of government approved for local small adjustments that don't breach the laws and any sort of your national governance or judiciary"

Klaus demanded as he once again equipped that robe over his back again and with a smile stared at King Leonidas who was being supported by Prince Sinha to stand again with his subordinates circling around him

"Hey! This isn't the time fo-"

"The Beast Kingdom agrees to your demands"

Sol tried to interrupt Klaus's statement but King Leonidas accepted the terms without any second thoughts and sat back over his throne with a big smirk on his face

"It was a nice duel Duke, you did well helping me confirm my potential to grow my skills even further"

As King Leonidas said the words despite the pain the tone of dignity and charisma as a king was extremely clear in each shred and fiber of his existence

'Your majesty...'

'Father...'

'This is the King the beastmen admire'

'As expected... He is just built differently!!!'

The beings present over the hall were left stunned and charmed by such level of pride and charismatic presence as a king that Leonidas held at that exact moment, a normal person would still be crying in pain while holding on to his own body

But Leonidas didn't show even any sign of being hurt just a moment ago and instead showed an absolute calmness and that neutral royal dignity while acknowledging his words not being blinded in arrogance and respecting others too

"The Golden Turtle Organisation is grateful for those assuring words, we will send someone for documents later, then let's meet again as the next chapter unfolds..."

Klaus flipped his robe again with little smile at corners of his face and left followed by all others leaving the hall in state of absolute silence
