Sirone continued.

�So now I�m trying to change my stance.�I would feel defeated if I chose the option you suggested.�I�m in such a bad mood that I might lose my temper.�The odds are half and half.���Now that we are on an equal footing, let�s negotiate again.�If you�re asking me to make a choice, fine.�I will make a choice.�But what will happen after that, I don�t know what will happen to me���

Sirone sighed calmly.

�Can you afford it?��The world�s view of Yahweh.

If you thought taking a hostage would give you an edge in negotiations, you only knew Sirone half.

�Nothing will change.�If I speak, Sirone will make a choice.�But after that���

Is it really the size you can afford?

�no.�There�s really no way to sink the boat.�It�s just a bluff.�I�ve been through threats like this.�

That was also true, but the man in front of Cairns now was of a completely different kind.

scary.

�What if he really commits it?�

It was an honest feeling, and I realized what it means to negotiate with the stars of the ivory tower as equals.

�Rangi.�

He tried hard to hide his emotions, but Cairns� expression was already contorted with humiliation.

�Go to Sirone-sama�s side.�

He was still annoyed at treating people like objects, but the key to hostage negotiations was coolness.

�Ah, is that????

After hesitating for a moment, Rangi hurriedly grabbed her clothes and moved over to the seat next to Sirone.

The shaking of the stomach stopped, and a smile appeared on Sirone�s lips as if it had never happened.

�Thank you for caring me.�You are good at negotiating.�Arachne�s future is bright.�

It was pure praise.

�ha ha ha!�I can�t win either.�I tried desperately to get the upper hand, but I took a shot.�

Seeing Cairns cooling off his sweat with a hand fan, Sirone raised his evaluation of him.

�no.�If the results are good, that�s good.�Now that the big one is solved, the small one won�t be over soon, will it?�

�of course.�Hey, is the food still far away?�it�s all cold�Bring something warm back.�

The staff immediately replaced the food, and Cairns got up and poured the wine himself.

�C�mon, let�s toast.�For the prosperity of the kingdom of Arachne and the Ivory Tower.�I will work hard too.�

You don�t know what people are thinking, but sometimes there are things you don�t have to go deep into.

�yes.�then.�

Sitting in the middle of the table, Sirone brought the sweet wine to his lips. JrNovels.com
