Chapter 1969: Avoid A Fight

Their conversation was cut short as one of the Lesser Watchers entered the room.

"Sir, we have an issue in the street out front. It seems that the Valalan League left behind a spying spell that we didn’t notice, and now they’ve come back to file a formal complaint about your duplicity."

The watchers didn’t really have facial expressions, as they had no eyebrows, eyelids, or visible lips, as their facial tentacles hid their mouth. But the way that the tentacles were wiggling definitely gave Karl the impression that the watcher was highly amused.

"Alright, I will go out and speak with them. Perhaps they’re here to donate to the Guild Fund, in which case we should give them a proper Darklight Host welcome."

That made the new arrivals laugh, while Clan Leader Nerissa sighed.

Karl left the room, and stepped outside to find Rae standing protectively over Meisje, who was the "Blind Elf Girl" that the first group of troublemakers had supposedly come for.

Only, she was no longer blind, so Karl technically hadn’t lied.

"Honoured guests, welcome to the Darklight Host’s Blackwoods Branch. Might I ask what brings such a distinguished group to my gates today?"

The looks on their faces clearly said that they knew that he was messing with them. They could clearly sense nine Supreme Ranked auras inside, plus the Supreme Ranked constructs that were still active in the city.

Rue had never turned off the Supreme Ranked city guard Gargoyle spells after she activated them last time.

"You deceived us," the Supreme on Karl’s left blurted out, which earned him annoyed looks from the other two.

"Of course I did. Did you think that I would just start handing over Guild members whenever someone demanded them? That’s not how this works at all. If you would like to file a complaint, I have a premade form that you can fill out, and we will get back to you within seven to ten business days."

One of the Immortals in the back snickered, then quickly silenced themselves.

"If you’ve come to pick a fight, I really don’t recommend it.

But I don’t sense your whole alliance outside my village, so I suspect that you are here for some other reason than another round of the Guild War. Would you like to sit and talk?

You will find that I’m quite reasonable when dealing with reasonable people."

"We did not come for war. We have concerns about the rumours that you’re arming multiple Clan Alliances all along the coasts, using the Elves as your intermediary."

Karl put on a fake wounded expression. "You have it all wrong. We are an equipment manufacturer. We make gear of all sorts, and ship mostly via sea merchants to the coastal auctions.

Where it ends up after that is not up to us.

It is all up to the highest bidder, as is true of all crafted items that come to market. A fair and equal method of distribution that doesn’t imbalance the existing military forces.
