[But your accomplishments in the golden quest can’t be competed against! They are going nuts if they think they can overcome you after what you did so far]
“Don’t forget, I got few of their race in my forces,” I was referring to Toramos and others who joined me and belonged to the Hescos race.
[But their achievements are considered as part of yours right now]
“What if they decided to act rogue? Separated themselves from me and announced themselves a separate force? Will their achievements be calculated as mine as well?”
[Well… At least you’ll get half of their achievements in yours if that happened]
“This…” I just randomly said these words, never thought this could be true, “why won’t I get one hundred percent then? They worked under me, used my forces to get everything they got! If they didn’t get saved by me in the first place, they wouldn’t even be here to begin with!”
[That’s why you’ll get half of their contribution points]
“No, that’s not fair! I want one hundred percent!”
[No one can get such an amount except for the person himself! You know the rules! You get half of whoever you kill!]
“No, that’s in normal situations, not like this one here,” I shook my head, “if it was me, then anyone betraying any lord will get to be expelled from this quest forever!”
[This… Come on! Be a little realistic please! These are their races! How come you have the upper hand over them?]
“I’m the one who saved their lives for god’s sake!”
[That’s not enough to claim one hundred percent. Only fifty-five will do!]
Bingo! Just as I expected, this dude could be reasoned and bargained with! This fifty percent set wasn’t a fixed rule or something. And he got the power to change it.
And from there, I spent close to one hour bargaining with him. During which, the merging process already started. It’d take roughly three days for the merge to get done. And during which, we can move freely between zones and worlds unless it gets merged into the new world.
All portals and means of teleportation got on pause at the merge. That meant they would still be working after the merge got done.
And that was great news for me.
Another good piece of news was that I managed to get a final and much better offer from this dude speaking to me.
[Fine! What a troublesome and annoying little human you are! Damn kid! Are you sure you are a human and not a descendant of those stingy merchants?]
[Yes, you’ll get that. Stop annoying me and start taking care of your issues!]
“One more thing,” I wouldn’t let him slip by this easily. Even when I was talking to him, I was still throwing out my bones and defusing the bombs.
So I wasn’t wasting my time at all. “I want to know after winning all this, will the new world belong to me?”
[That’s a very easy thing to guess on your own]
“I want to hear your confirmation, not just a vague kind of answer,” I paused in my actions. Such an answer was indeed the last thing I’d like to hear from him.
If I learnt anything about these higher ups, then they were quite treacherous and cunning. If they didn’t say it directly, then they’d find tons of excuses to extricate themselves from any promise.
[Don’t you trust my word on this?]
“I trust your words of course,” I nodded, “but the ones that you clearly say and declare, not the ones that require my poor and tired mind to process.”
[You… Good! Go and work, stop wasting time]
“No, give me an answer first,” the more he evaded the answer, the more my heart clenched in my chest, “or I swear to god I’d defect and work for the enemy!”
[You… No way you can do it!]
“I will, don’t test me!”
[…]
“I didn’t hear anything dude. Don’t curse me inside, or else it’ll rebound on you and end up cursing yourself instead.”
[Stop wasting the damn time and start working!]
“No! I want my answer!”
[Fine! The one who is going to win this will get the privilege to lead and control the new world for a hundred years, provided that no other race here challenges him over it!]
“No way! I’m going to defect right now to the enemy!”
[Stop it!] As I just said my threat, I dropped everything I was doing, went towards one of the portals, the ones that connected here with one of the enemy homebases.
That damn jerk! Who did he think he was dealing with? A kid? Come on! I grew old enough in this golden quest to get close to fifty by now!
Trying to trick me using words? I knew there was something fishy going on here. I would never risk everything, risk myself, my forces, and exhaust everything I got, just for another race to come and claim everything and take the new world and its races on a golden plate like this!
Damn all this! I would never see such a thing happen!
[Stop it! I’m warning you! You are going to be the enemy of the entire universe!]
“Screw the universe! As if you already didn’t sell me out, bastard!” I didn’t even flinch, or slow down my steps, “you made a deal with those damn Hescos already! Let that human do all the work, let him suffer and struggle, work like a slave for us, right? And in the end you are going to get everything ready on a silver plate, take everything I sweat over, to steal all my achievements and hard work from me. Screw you! I will never accept or succumb to any of that!”
[Stop it! Who said anything about stealing what you deserve? You are going to be crowned the winner and ruler of this world when you win it. What made you think you are going to get deprived of such rights in the end?]
