A few moments before.
"Tok tock,"
The sound of knocking on the door blew Colline's mind for a moment, he got up and walked towards the door.
Colline then opened the train door with a super large room.
The door opened, a young man with navy hair and a formal suit was smiling.
He bowed his body and smiled sweetly.
Colline became confused for a moment.
"A ah, sorry brother. Looks like you're wrong for the train"
Raka tilted her head for a moment, and innocently asked
"O oh? Isn't this the carriage of His Majesty Theodore?"
"e eh? This is true, but what brings you to meet my king?"
"Hmm? I thought I made an appointment with him haha" he said cheerfully.
Colline was stunned for a moment, however, it was rather unreasonable for a child to meet an adult man like him right?
Theodore stepped towards the door where Colline and Raka were standing.
"Ah, it looks like I have a guest here."
"e eh? Your Honor, this boy says that he has a promise with you"
"Oh? Really true?"
A moment later, an old man appeared to come panting. He bowed to pay his respects.
"Hamba salutes his highness Theodore, this is my lord, His Majesty Azalea."
Colline and Theodore were shocked.
"Interesting."
Raka smiled cheerfully, while Theodore looked at him with a hint of pressure.
"Ah. Isn't it a bit impolite for you not to let me in?"
Theodore smiles and invites Raka and Edward to enter his caravan.
He directed the two guests to a room with decorations that looked like a simple meeting room.
"Ah. Then I'll sit down"
"Sit down, let's just say this is my apology for my impoliteness of not welcoming you."
"Um, you're overreacting, Your Highness Theodore."
"Huh, okay. Looks like I've been too telepathic with you, Mr. Azalea"
"Oh? What then? What you want"
Theodore enforces his tall body. A powerful aura immediately seeped from his body.
Such a powerful aura of intimidation immediately hit them, however, Raka seemed to be sitting quietly as if nothing had happened to her.
"Ah. I think you are quite good at controlling the aura of yes, noble Theodore" Raka said, sipping tea prepared by Theodore.
"Oho? You're not affected, are you? Looks like you're quite interesting, it's not appropriate to be a leader of a trading group that is quite domineering"
"Pffts. Again you're overreacting, Your Highness Theodore"
Theodore narrowed his eyes, staring fixedly at the young man before him.
Seen in his vision, Raka with a veil of dense fog shimmered.
'Oh? I can't see the power of this kid, can I? How strong is it really? Although not now, I can confirm that at least his potential is unlimited in the future, and of course it will be very profitable to work with him' Theodore said softly in his heart.
"Hey, however, the basic foundation in a relationship is trust, not so Mr. Azalea"
"Yeah, I think I agree with you, Your Majesty Theodore. It is because I ask this cooperation from you. Surely because you are the one who really knows the consequences" Raka said sharply.
Theodore's expression stretched again, he looked more relaxed than before.
"Alright, since this is cooperation, I will ask you for some things first, Mr. Azalea"
Raka nodded calmly in this matter.
"Alright, first, I will not support you with my full strength. Second, neither you nor I have the right to interfere in each other's personal affairs without the wishes of the problematic party, let's say if I do not ask you to interfere, then you are forbidden to interfere. Third, our lives will not affect how this cooperation goes" he said with a warm smile.
"Ah, you really are an observer yes, your majesty. All right, I agree. Besides, I also have a deal with you"
"Oh? Say"
"First, regardless of who I am and who you are, we are a cooperative party. Second, regardless of what you or I do, we have no other relationship than this partnership. The two will not affect each other. Fourth, I do not want your support for myself. But over my country. Even so, what I do in the future is in the name of Azadys, not my country"
"You really interest me, Mr. Azalea. No, should I call you His Highness the Prince of Arcnight?"
Colline was surprised to hear his master's words. After all, the name had not been heard for a long time. The name of a kingdom ruling over the power of this continent.
"I think we've agreed" Raka said with a simple smile.
He beckoned Edward behind him.
Edward stepped out with a box in his hand. He bent his body and stretched it out to Theodore.
Theodore gestured for Colline to pick up the box.
"Ah, well.I hope you keep your word, Your Majesty Theodore" Raka said as he rose from his seat.
"Well, you don't have to worry about him, Mr. Azalea" Theodore got up and invited Raka.
"Collins"
"Okay, your honor"
"Hmm, in my honor, let Colline deliver you" Theodore said kindly.
Raka nodded in agreement, "i won't hesitate"
