Travels to the Holy Light Continent

Chapter 115 Year Contract

Things were just as I expected, Britney and Princess Nine were sitting at the negotiation table, and I was listening in. Britney looked elegant in her puffy skirt, and Princess Nine looked heroic in her tight clothes.

"The general is really good at this. Juana has completely lost this game!" The Ninth Princess laughed.

"Princess, you have the spirit of a great general at such a young age. You will definitely have a bright future. I wonder if the King of Chu will agree to our conditions?" I asked.

"How can a little girl like me have a bright future? Besides, do I have any other choice except to agree with us?" The Ninth Princess asked back.

"Victory and defeat are common in the military. The princess is still young, so she naturally has more opportunities. However, I would like to advise the princess to put down her butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately. There is nothing in this world that must be resolved by force!"

"If you don't fight for what belongs to you in this world, who will know what is yours? Princess Britney, I feel deeply guilty for what my eldest brother has done. They didn't deserve such an ending!" said the Ninth Princess.

"If possible, I still hope that our three countries can coexist peacefully!" Britney sighed.

"My Chu country has its own difficulties. Otherwise I would not want to see so many lives destroyed!" said the Ninth Princess dejectedly.

"I wonder if the princess can tell me, if possible, I would like to do my best to maintain peace among the three kingdoms!"

"Me too!" Britney said.

The Ninth Princess stood up and said, "I am very grateful to you two for putting aside the past. To be honest, my country is close to the forest of beastmen. The beastmen invade my country every year, making my country's arable land scarce. Although my country fights against the beastmen every year, the pressure is huge. Qi has fertile land, and my country is really envious! As the saying goes, a gentleman will not bow down for a few grains of rice, but I don't want my people to be left without food!"

Britney fell silent after hearing this. Although she was the eldest princess, she didn't dare to guarantee such an important matter.

"Have you two princesses ever heard of Plato?" I asked.

"Who in the Holy Light Continent doesn't know about Plato now? I wonder what purpose the general has in mentioning him?" The Ninth Princess said with a smile.

"Your Majesty has granted me the province of Peacefort as a fiefdom. During this period, I have been managing the province of Peacefort in the Platonic way, and it has been quite effective now. The province of Peacefort borders both the State of Chu and the State of Qi. I hope your countries will put aside their prejudices and start trade with each other. I am willing to mediate!" I said.

"If the State of Chu is willing to sign a ten-year peace treaty, my State of Qi is willing to trade with us!" Britney said.

"boom!"

The Ninth Princess knelt on the ground, took out the dagger in her hand, cut her palm and said, "I, Juana Navarre, swear with blood that if Qi and Peaceful are willing to open up trade and exchange what they have, my Chu is willing to sign a ten-year peace treaty with Qi. If you break this oath, you are willing to go to hell forever!"

Britney ripped open her skirt to bandage the Ninth Princess and said, "Thank you, sister!"

"No! Thank you, sister, for letting bygones be bygones!"

In this way, the three parties signed a ten-year peace treaty, and all three parties agreed to release the hostages unconditionally.

Although the ending seems perfect, many people are still dissatisfied.

The Murakami family was the first to express their dissatisfaction. His son Murakami Taro had been making a lot of money, but because of the signed agreement he wasn't able to get a penny. He was so angry that he wrote a letter to complain to me.

His Majesty sent me a letter of reprimand, saying that I was disrespectful to him by signing the contract alone without following his wishes!

My grandmother also sent me a private message saying that many people in the Holy See said bad things about me, saying that I disrupted the order of the Holy Light Continent, that I took away the responsibilities of the Holy See, and even worse, some said that I might be a heretic.
