Murphy snorted.
This time, he solemnly took out a small notebook from his spiritual energy pack, flipped through a few pages, glanced at Shani, coughed and said:
"Let me change my conditions. The issue of territory remains non-negotiable, it's a fundamental bottom line.
However, on top of the prior three conditions, I'm adding one more: the Nordtoff Kingdom's Ministry of Finance should lend money to the Transylvania Governorate for purchasing military supplies necessary for resisting the Black Disaster from factories within the Nordtoff Kingdom's territory.
The captive Blood Servants in our midst can also be repatriated through a 'ransom' method.
This money will be gradually returned to the Nordtoff Kingdom over the next ten years. If there is interest to be added, it cannot exceed the median number of your country's official business loans."
"?"
If earlier Murphy's conditions only made Shani angry, now she was left dumbfounded.
