[Nar Point of View]

The Dwarf Kingdom, interested in the golem development of Emas, is making an interesting proposal. Of course, I think it's a good proposal from their side, but

"If that's what it takes, I can give you my word that I will convince the other side" [Princess Siti].

"Of course, we wouldn't just take something for nothing. In exchange for your golem knowledge, we will also lend you our blacksmithing knowledge. Brokkr and Oreforged may not be here with us, but we have our own talent as well" [Rhineheart]

Interesting... I guess our information about their past is indeed the truth. If that's really the case, then the serial killer dwarf... No, this isn't the time. Their past is their own to deal with, but I'll have to buy a drink or two for Oreforged and Brokkr. I'm sure that even if they grumble about it, they themselves know that nothing good will happen if the Devil King awakens.

"Defense is good, but I'm sure you don't need just one Golem to defeat the Devil King and his army. We need as much manpower as possible. Xianxia will also help, for a price." [Ling]

"It's always a price when it comes to you and Xianxia" [Lionel].

"Money is important. Life is all about it" 

"Nah, don't take what my boss's son said to heart. Money is indeed important, but there's more to it than money, unfortunately, you can't even hire a dog if you're dirt poor. Xianxia has no shortage of mercenaries, legal or illegal. One word from me is enough for them to gather" [Ling].

"Are you sure you can just diss me like that?" 

"Why not? If I disagree, I'll disagree" [Ling]

"Why did my father, the Emperor, ever choose you?"

"Because of money. I bring money" (and a strong lead for his nonsense quest for never-ending immortality...) [Ling]

If it's about money, I'm not much of a talker. Myle and Her Highness Queen Amleth begin to discuss the advantages of hiring mercenaries. Their arguments make sense, but I'm more in agreement with Mr. Ling. There's safety in numbers, shall the numbers really serve their purpose

"The adventurers will definitely be useful as well. I'm not sure what the other guild masters will say, but if it's an Amlethian adventurer, you have my word that we're ready to fill the number" [Akela].

"That wicked fox! You and your never-ending plan"

"And here I think I'm being called cunning, but you're wrong dear noble beastman, I can't feel any malice from her. Take it from me" [Ling].

"Why thank you, it is like the Prime Minister of Xianxia said, I have no malicious intent. That was in the past, the past where I was falsely accused, but I'm sure no one wants to argue about that" [Akela]

"Sigh..." [Lionel]

"Aside from the guild master's comment, we adventurers will indeed be useful. Even if you don't want us to be on the front lines, we can handle other equally important tasks, whether it's logistics or evacuating civilians" [Khamisah].

The dwarves' past, and now Guild Master Akela's past. Before things get too heated, Saintess Rumia asks everyone to calm down. As she said, this is not the time and place for any non pressing matter.

"The church will also be ready. We have few divisions that will surely bring victory" [Cardinal Davis].

"Saint Louis and I agree, we will be on the front lines" [Saintess Rumia].

"Excuse me..." [Ayaka]

"Did my ear deceive me?" [Ling]

"That is indeed what you just heard" [Saintess Rumia]

"Are you sure, Dear Goddess Favorite Daughter?" [Merlin]

"I am" [Saintess Rumia]

"In that case, your help will indeed be valuable, just as Maria's was back then" [Merlin]

"In that case, I'll gather all the giants in this continent, but my banner will be under either Goddess Favorite Daughter or Blessed Child Diana" [Elder Giant].

"!" [All]

Please don't say it! I know he wouldn't say anything about Diana's blessing, but my heart stopped a little. I'm sure many already knew that she is indeed a special girl, but they didn't know exactly what made her so special. I guess as a giant, he's more in tune with nature, and even if Diana doesn't tell him exactly about her blessing, he can make a hazard guess that will be more or less accurate. 

"I am the strongest giant, and I will prove it by becoming the only elder giant needed on this entire continent. I'm warning everyone here, don't come between two giant tribes fighting. The sight will be terrible, but if that's what it takes to rally them, I'll take the responsibility" [Elder Giant].

"I'm sorry, but why Diana?" [Elizabeth]

"I can understand if it's Saintess Rumia, but a little girl like her? Surely others from the Vars family will be more suitable" 

As much as I want to bash the youngest child of the Xianxia Emperor over the head with his sarcastic tone, his question is one that's shared by many others. I'm sure they all expect the Elder Giant to answer it, and he will.
