"In a show of goodwill, I have brought with me the magic crossbows allocated by the capital for your esteemed legion."
Upon hearing Count Sandford's words, Earl Hudson knew that the main issue of the day was starting. This wasn't something that could be resolved with just a few pleasantries since it involved conflicts of interests.
Receiving the magic crossbows early could at best be considered as a favor. To satisfy Earl Hudson's expectations, far more efforts would still be required.
"Count Sandford, you're too kind. If it was merely about respecting my personal dignity, this issue would merely be trivial and could be solved with a simple clarification. However, the problem now is that this involves the dignity of my Alpha Kingdom, hence, your country must demonstrate a posture of respect towards us."
Earl Hudson said with a broad smile.
He originally hated playing this game, but now that it was his turn, he suddenly found it very useful.
