Book 1-6.2 Discussions with the Empire (II)    

Looking at it in     

terms of diplomacy, sending the second prince to a dangerous area like     

this was showing that their powerful empire cares a lot about the tribe.     

It was a way of showing that they were being respectful, and in     

addition, if the tribe didn’t listen to their demands, it was putting     

pressure onto the tribe that they were not giving face to the empire’s     

prince. It was a great diplomatic tactic, however, the immature prince     

ended up being poison instead.    

‘This damn idiot of a prince!     

Because of you, we just lost thousands of the fiercest warriors     

available! In addition, the potential danger…… what are you going to do     

if they end up shaking hands to work together with the Rojini Kingdom……’    

Janet was internally swearing at Shareulo Fury Silence, who was sitting arrogantly next to him.    

Shareulo Fury SIlence was the type of prince who was useless, other than having the blood of the King in his veins.    

If     

you don’t have the abilities, you need to know how to shut up, however,     

he didn’t even have that much common sense. Even within the empire, he     

was causing a headache to the royal family for doing whatever he wants     

and stealing other people’s wealth to use as he pleased.    

However,     

among the royal family, the older brother, the crown prince, Shaone Fury     

Silence III, felt sorry for his immature younger brother, that he     

forced Shareulo to do all sorts of things, trying to make a man out of     

him. (TL: Mr., I’ll…. make a man…. out of you….) But Shareulo couldn’t     

even understand just how hard his brother was trying to help him, and     

would only complain and haphazardly do whatever he was ordered to do.    

Crown     

Prince Shaone knew that Pareia would be extremely repulsed by their     

request, but would end up having to send over the desert warriors.     

That’s why he sent his brother here with a veteran like Janet, so that     

they can solidify his brother’s status for the future.    

Even if you     

are a prince, if you had no merits, you end up falling down and     

becoming a useless person. In order to build up his brother’s merit, he     

sent him on a mission that was guaranteed to succeed.    

Understanding     

the crown prince’s reason for sending the second prince with him, Janet     

spoke with the prince before this meeting and reminded him over and     

over to not to scratch the pride of the desert warriors. Even then, this     

damned idiot of a prince ended up causing a big issue.    

Janet     

looked at the Glow and his son with a worried look on his face. Glow     

Baguna’s face had become completely red, and his son abruptly stood up     

and started to shout.    

“You may be the prince of an empire, but     

right now, if we were to use your language, you are in front of a king!     

Don’t you think your words are too insulting?!”    

Glow Baguna must     

have been extremely angry as well, as he did not stop Yulian and just     

continued to watch. There was a limit to being patient. A desert     

warrior’s pride is as high as the sky; you don’t even need to talk about     

the pride of the Glow who rules over them.    

“Are you saying you will attack me! You must want to lose your neck for treason.”    

Shareulo     

did not back down and also stood up from his seat and shouted at the     

top of his lungs. Yulian clenched his fists tightly before speaking.    

“This is not your empire but Pareia of the desert. Who do you think you are speaking in front of when talking about treason!”    

Who would dare to talk back to him in the empire? Shareulo was not afraid of anyone who was not his father or brother.    

Clang.    

Shareulo drew his sword from his waist and the sword directly started to stab towards Yulian.    

Baguna     

was completely surprised, and Janet was stupefied. He knew this prince     

was a moron, but he would have never dreamt that he was this bad! If he     

was even 1/1000th similar to his brother the crown prince, he would     

never do something like this.    

“Yulian!”    

“Prince!”    

Even in the midst of Baguna and Janet both shouting, Shareulo’s sword continued to stab towards Yulian.    

The     

moment he thought Yulian’s waist was bending backwards, a large mass of     

iron flashed in front of his eyes and effortlessly smacked Shareulo’s     

sword away.    

Yulian could not hold it in anymore and lifted up his greatsword to send Shareulo’s sword flying.    

Shareulo’s sword, which had been struck by the greatsword, flew high up in the paoe before flying outside.    

‘When they said the current Pareia’s princes were extremely talented, they weren’t kidding.’    

Being     

a diplomat, Janet grew up as a civil servant and knew no martial arts.     

However, he was someone who had met many weapon merchants, warriors, and     

knights of many foreign nations.    

He had seen many knights during     

his life, but there were not many who could instantly and effortlessly     

move a large sword like Yulian did. Just looking at it, you could tell     

that the greatsword was heavy enough to be difficult for one person to     

even just lift up.    

Watching his weapon being flung away from his hand, Shareulo turned red in embarrassment as he started to shout.    

“How     

dare you swing your sword towards me! You must be begging to die! With     

one word from me, I can make sure a barbarian tribe like this disappears     

overnight!”    

“What the fuck do you think you’re saying!”    

Yulian     

was extremely angry to the point his face turned red. At the moment he     

was about to move his greatsword, Janet felt that if he let this     

continue any further, something serious would happen and quickly spoke.    

“Prince     

Shareulo, I will not allow you to continue speaking like this. Don’t     

forget that I have been given the full authority of this voyage. This     

was a command given directly to me by the wise crown prince Shaone Fury     

Silence III, working in the will of the great emperor Shaone Fury     

Silence II.”    

Shareulo glared at Janet who was scolding him using     

his father and brother’s full names, before silently walking out of the     

paoe. Even Shareulo could not go against the will of his father and     

brother.    

As Shareulo walked out like that, Janet used his     

handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead before bowing ninety     

degrees in front of Baguna and speaking respectfully.    

“I ask for Glow Baguna’s understanding. The prince must have been extremely tired from the journey and full of irritation.”    

“You’re telling me your royal family insults anybody and swings their sword at anybody when they are irritated?!”    

Listening     

to Baguna’s voice full of anger, Janet knew that he would not be able     

to take anything back from this visit. Rather, they needed to give a lot     

of things to calm them down.    

To lose Pareia right now meant they     

will not have a source of the black water they desperately needed for     

the war. Furthermore, no matter how you looked at it, this was their     

fault. Even using all the flowery language he had learned being a     

diplomat for a long time could not cover that truth up.    

“I, Janet,     

apologize on his behalf for insulting the honorable name of Pareia. I     

will definitely pay you back for causing damage to its name.”    

Yulian yelled at Janet’s response.    

“Do you really think you can pay to make up for damaging a warrior’s pride?!”    

“I’m truly sorry. I can only hope for understanding and forgiveness from Glow Baguna, the Benevolent Eye.”    

Glow     

Baguna shook his head at Janet’s actions. He was definitely a flawless     

diplomat. As an envoy of the Empire, they could stick their nose up in     

the air and do as they pleased, however, this diplomat did not show that     

type of personality. He was a veteran who made it sound like he was     

compromising with you while still taking everything he wanted to take.     

He would rather have a diplomat like the moronic prince from earlier, as     

they would be easier to deal with.    

Since Baguna did not plan to     

start a war with the Silence Empire, he decided that he will pretend to     

lose and give a bit before sending them back quietly. For at least a     

year, they would not be able to make any types of demands.    

Baguna gestured with his hand to stop Yulian from saying something again.    

“I     

suppose the prince may have said something like that as he has not had     

the opportunity to get to know us. It could also be because he is a     

healthy young man.”    

“I, Janet, bow my head in thanks at Glow Baguna, the Benevolent Eye’s act of goodwill.”    

“Today     

is my birthday. Although something bad has happened on a happy day,     

since you have come a long way, celebrate my birthday, and enjoy before     

you leave.”    

“Since you mention it, we brought a present for Glow     

Baguna. We are providing both wagons of iron that we brought today as     

Glow Baguna-nim’s birthday present. I hope you accept it with a happy     

heart.”    

Janet clearly knew what Baguna was thinking on the inside,     

but he put on a smiling expression and played along. That was how     

diplomacy worked. He’ll end up returning empty handed after giving up     

all the iron they brought with them to trade, but to end it at this     

level was great news.    

Yulian was very upset listening to his father and Janet.    

‘I’m sure father is even more upset. To receive this type of insult but need to hold back and restrain himself……”    

He was also saddened by the fact that one day, it would be on him to take that kind of insult and hold back with a smile.    

At that point, Baguna called Yulian.    

“Yulian.”    

“Yes, father.”    

Baguna     

looked at Yulian for a long time before moving his lips. It looked like     

he wanted to say something but was holding back, before he said his     

son’s name again.    

“Yulian.”    

“Yes.”    

“Don’t forget.”    

“I will not forget.”    

Father and son. The two men’s eyes were burning red.
