Jopis looked toward Ron and started to speak as if she was responding to Cale.

�And you�ll need the rights to run a couple of the more important inns for that information and money?�

Ron responded with a benign smile.

�Oh my, oh my. I preferred having you being an assassin in the darkness. You�re trying to become an even scarier existence.�

Jopis was smiling as she said that. She did not seem scared at all. In fact, she seemed to be planning a lot of things in her mind. She then turned her head as she continued to think.

�Then what about the Mercenaries Guild?�

Bud was blankly staring at them.

�Ah.�

Jopis nodded her head elegantly as if she understood.

�The Mercenary King probably doesn�t know because he was fooled by the puppies and was being held hostage. Should I ask your close friend outside?�

It was at that moment.

�The Mercenaries Guild members will be exempt from the toll! It will be for a minimum of 10 years and a maximum of 20 years!�

The Mercenary King�s eyes sparkled as he shouted brightly. His tied body was moving around as he continued.

�In addition, we get first dibs on all mercenary-related tasks for 10 years!�

The Mercenary King sounded too happy.
Jopis just smiled elegantly as she stared at Bud for a while before picking the document back up. She continued to turn the page as she started to speak.

�Hmm� Then, with everything here��

She started to bring up some of the Roan Kingdom�s conditions.

�The toll. The exchange of business and culture�all enemy belongings discovered in the process or gained from the battle will belong to the Roan Kingdom�there are many minute details here. But you see� Commander Cale Henituse-nim?�
�Yes, ma�am.�
�How do you benefit from any of this?�

Jopis elegantly tilted her head.

�Is it just out of loyalty? You don�t seem like the type to do that.�

There was someone who answered her question in Cale�s place.
She could see Cale starting to smile at her question.

�No benefit for me?� JrNovels.com
