Dragon Tales: Reincarnation

An unexpected request.

It seems that someone is here. I could feel their presence through my skill and judging by that they got here flying, then they have a dragon with them. Vejetar just said jack was here so he must be the one.

"Who's jack?"

I asked Vejetar turning my head slightly, he was so relaxed, his hands behind his head.

"Jack's the merchant I told you about. The one you wanted me to all here. He's here, outside the castle, I think he might be in trouble cause there are some guards pointing their swords at them."

What the?

"Go help him then!"

This man... he's sitting here so relaxed while he tells me that. And he's still not getting up!

"Go on already! They'll beat him up!"

He just made a very kid-like face and then got up,

"Tch, why do I have to go get him..."

After that, he dragged his feet across the floor, unwilling, and went out of the room, in order to get them into the castle.

"What might that be? Great Velkra?"

Youlias started inquiring about something.

"You know how The Demon Realm is all messed up, recently the castle where the remaining demons were taking shelter in caved in, so they don't have any shelter or food. That's why I'm calling a reliable merchant to handle the bulk of the supplies we'll need."

Youlias seemed quite displeased at that, I know why, he must be upset that I wasn't letting him aid us,

"Why call a merchant when I'm at your service, Great Velkra? Our Kingdom is the center of agriculture..."

It's justified, but yeah, I wanna do something with my own hands.

"It's not that, it's just that I don't want to burden your people for something I want."

Youlias shook his head right to left, seemingly disagreeing with my reason, the nobles were quite stiff at his response to me.

"That would not be a problem, if you were to build a country I want my kingdom to be the one to aid you first. The burden does not matter, we just want to serve you, this isn't something I should say as a King but you are above me, and the people here definitely want to aid you."

So he wants some diplomatic profit. That would be true since it would become a pretty big deal that Diacis was the first Kingdom to acknowledge us, a Kingdom of Magic Races, What people usually call monsters.

But I can't really take them for free. It would be just unfair. Wait... can I pay for the supplies? Hmm... I wonder.

"Okay, but I won't be taking it for free. I would be buying it."

As I made that declaration, the noble's faces became something like 'Oh! She's so benevolent!' just like Youlias had said.

"That is... what I really don't desire but... if you would want that, I would certainly comply."

"That is what I want. I will but them from you, but only the food supplies, nothing more than that."

Youlias seemed to be satisfied with just that so he nodded at my proposal and then called over a man,

"Since we have every Head of the Noble house here, I want them to make a contribution. Every Lord, hurry back to your domains and prepare for the supplies to be sent to... where?"

It seems he still wasn't sure about where to send them,

"To the Forest of Alfera, I'll be waiting there."
