[601-END] LORD OF THE WORLD: I BECOME THE LORD OF THE DESERT FROM THE START

Chapter 614: The Battle for Authority

“My Lord, can Fina get the power of music and dance?”

Vale’s aura was cold. He stared at the figure who sat at the head of the long table and sipped tea.

Richard’s temperament made his heart beat faster.

He knew he couldn’t get enough of it, although he had seen that face countless times.

“Our actions are so obvious. If the gods hiding in the dark know about it, will they…”

He stopped before he could finish his sentence. The second half of his sentence was self-explanatory.

Richard slowly put down the porcelain teacup and turned to look at the young man who held the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce’s power and was already quite famous in Solan City.

“We’ve planned this for so long. How would we know the effect if we don’t try it once?”

“As for what the others think… It’s not significant.”

“There are many people who miss us. We’re good in this part.”

“Be it gods or demons, Twilight City is no longer the same as before.”

“Whoever dares to stretch out their hands, cut off their claws. It’s that simple.”

The confidence and indifference in his words made Vale’s heart beat faster, although his tone was calm.

No one could reject a man of the opposite sex who had overwhelming authority and extraordinary martial prowess.

Power was a man’s best coat. This sentence was never false.

He calmed down, and he spoke in a hoarse voice.

“My Lord, can we succeed? Would authority be transferred because of the worship and prayers of believers?”

Richard shook his head, and his eyes were deep.

“No one can determine the outcome, but we can try.”

“Once we succeed, we will reap generous benefits. We can still afford it even if we fail.”

Not everyone had such excellent conditions.

Fina’s reputation rose astonishingly as the Elven Music Box. It had become a must-have item on the streets.

More importantly, he had planned this a year ago.

It wouldn’t be easy for outsiders to imitate him if he took it out now, even if he achieved results.

He already had the upper hand.

Richard seemed to have thought of something as he waved at the maid outside the door and called her in.

“Where’s Fina? Tell her to come see me.”

The maid immediately went down to summon Fina. A night elf wore a black openwork dress. It had an elegant and noble aura as she walked into the room.

“Lord, Fina salutes you.”

There was no doubt about the elves’ beauty. The night elves were not as pure as the surface elves. They had an additional charm that made people reluctant to look away.

Richard nodded slightly.

“You sold the Desert Hymn. Did you feel the prayers of the believers?”

Music and dance were second-class authorities. One gave rise to them only born after the reproduction of intelligent life.

It wasn’t death. Life was a high-level authority that appeared at the birth of the world. It was not about how arduous it is to achieve it. It wasn’t that much of a concern.
