Return of the Legend chapter 1284
Negotiation Skills (2)
‘First-come, first-served basis?’
High Priest Joseph did not understand the meaning of the words for a moment.
Because the word “first-come-first-served” did not come to mind.
Even after becoming a priest, I had never heard of such a word before.
The priests belonging to the temple were treated more in every way than the wizards of the tower.
The holy ones who worshiped the gods served as representatives of the gods even before the emperor.
But what about first-come-first-served basis for such people?
“The high priest is number one. The god of mercy is lucky.”
shit.
Duke Becker trembles and laughs.
You have committed the blasphemy of telling God you are lucky.
crazy!
It was the moment when Jusheng’s doubts turned into certainty.
It is clear that he is not someone who possesses a sane mind.
The existence of God can never be the object of any transaction.
Even when the priests fell, they feared God.
But the arrogant man, Duke Becker, seemed to have no reverence for God.
“I’ll pretend I haven’t heard that word now.”
Joseph strengthened his will and went out somewhat strongly.
Blasphemy is a great sin, regardless of whoever it is.
If the temple judges it to be blasphemy, all members of the congregation will come forward to hold them accountable.
There are many believers who worship the God of Mercy.
Even the emperors of the past did not touch the large temple no matter how angry they were.
However.
“Are you sure you want to give up the 1st place?”
The duke asks calmly, as if ignoring Joseph’s words.
“dismissal. The reason I have come now is to convey the opinions of each temple regarding the sudden decree of His Majesty the Emperor.”
“Opinion?”
“… … The public opinion of the temple is not good. There has never been a politician in the history of the continent to force donations to temples.”
“Do you think your Majesty is forcing you now?”
“of course.”
“I ordered a donation, but there was no coercion.”
“Isn’t that what it is? Is there anyone on the continent who can ignore the Croyan Empire’s imperial family?”
“Aren’t you here? in front of me.”
The peacock’s unpredictable eyes looking at Joseph are unusual.
“Go, sir! I am a priest called High Priest!”
He emphasized once more that Joseph is the High Priest.
“So? Doesn’t the high priest not eat? Aren’t you going to the bathroom?”
“Yeah???”
At Duke Becker’s absurd question, Joseph made an absurd expression on his face.
The question itself was a nonsensical sound.
“Don’t you like gold? Let’s be honest.”
The peacock’s expression became very serious.
“I am the servant of Ereka, the goddess of mercy. Naturally, he abstained from wealth and treated his followers with compassion and compassion… … .”
“According to information, these days, the Temple of Mercy buys all kinds of high-end furniture and items. Isn’t that all money?”
“These are sacred things to offer to God.”
“Ereka-sama seems to like overspending.”
“dismissal!!!”
“I know that even the imperial family buys the finest wine, food ingredients, and furniture made of elven wood from the temple. Does Ereka-sama use all of them?”
Duke Becker’s smile darkened slightly.
‘I know everything. Damn it.’
Joseph’s back was moist with a cold sweat.
The temple does not pay taxes.
Items purchased are also exempt from tax.
So, even during the war, the temple could enjoy luxury in every name.
A crisis was an opportunity.
It is perhaps natural that the devotees who came to the Temple of Mercy to find rest offered a large sum of money.
The priests were immersed in the taste of money the more such believers came.
A temple that flourished even more after the fall of the empire.
The price of holy water also jumped to an all-time high.
At this time, everything is full of God’s grace.
It became the shape of Duke Becker pointing his spear towards the temple.
Joseph definitely noticed.
Duke Becker is not afraid of God.
Since it was such a duke, no matter how much he threatened it in the name of a god, it didn’t seem like it would work.
“… … I am thinking of making a donation to some extent. Ereka-sama gave her heart to contribute to the revival of the empire.”
“It’s like Ereka-sama, the god of mercy.”
“If it’s not rude, how much should I donate… … .”
Saron could not even start in earnest and ended.
Resistance was meaningless.
Now is the time to determine the appropriate level of donation amount.
Substantial negotiations began in earnest.
” Tell me first.”
‘It’s a player!’
Giusepp looked at the astute Duke of Becker, nervous inside.
I really met the master of Mildang.
In order to ascend to the Great Hall, you have to eat a lot of nunchibap in the temple.
The temple was no different from the social organization of ordinary humans.
In order to ascend to the top, noticing and speaking well were more important than sexual strength.
“I will donate 10% of my income to the Imperial Family for the next 10 years.”
It’s a reasonable amount for having suffered a lot of bleeding.
It’s 10%, which is more than the total income of any real estate.
“okay?”
Duke Becker asks with a hidden smile.
Not at all satisfied.
‘Thief!’
Joseph swearing inside.
“If it’s not enough, up to 20 percent… … .”
An ominous feeling of having to sacrifice all of the temple’s wealth has come upon us if we make a mistake.
He looked like a strong man on the continent who did not fear God.
“great. I’ll take two.”
Duke Becker accepts before he’s even finished speaking.
“thank you! dismissal!”
Joseph sincerely thanked Duke Becker for his gracious acceptance.
“I will accept the donation in my name, since it may become someone else under His Majesty the Emperor.”
“of course.”
‘Huh. You have a lot of greed.’
I thought it would be a difficult match.
A maximum of 30 was considered.
The temple here, which is used as the emperor, was the best.
The Temple of Ereka, run by various high priests as a council.
The content of the negotiation should explain the circumstances.
Judging from Duke Becker’s attitude, he doesn’t seem to be very friendly to the temple.
In this case, it is better to trade neatly on the contrary.
“Will Ereka approve this donation pledge? Including the good hearts accumulated through the blood and sweat of the believers.”
“of course. I am not the high priest who serves the god Ereka. Twenty percent of everything that enters the temple will be donated to the Empire, or to your Majesty the Duke. Hahaha.”
Joseph laughed out loud in relief.
sting.
Then Joseph felt it clearly.
The energy of God Ereka, who has not answered her prayers these days.
It was very cold.
Suddenly, the energy of God descended.
The nape of his neck was terribly cold.
and.
– Whoa.
The deep sigh of God was vividly heard in my ears.
***
– Wow… … This world’s worst scammer! God’s point because there is nothing to lose in the world… … .
Alphadak shut his mouth without speaking.
There was a strong sense of respect in her words, which had been silenced.
It’s not a scam, it’s a technology.
It was the perfect negotiation.
I didn’t make any threats at all.
It was a voluntary donation from the temple for the revival of the empire and for the people.
– Then we have to go to the imperial warehouse! Why are you eating under your brother’s name!!!
big
That’s the key.
Our Emperor Arin will be recorded in history for his clean works.
I plan to carry all the donations that damage this reputation.
– Did you even issue the decree knowing that? Bad swallow oppa who takes advantage of love!
I’m not trying to be good.
I have to pay off the negative points quickly, so I’m not going to pay your interest normally.
Do you think I’ll just wash my mouth when I’m good?
A question full of edible baits thrown at Alphadak.
– Okay… … . Yes, the god who suffers is an idiot.
Alphadak declared surrender.
The contract ended happily.
Immediately after High Priest Joseph promised to donate, a notification sound was heard.
– You have acquired 20% of the points paid to Ereka, the goddess of mercy.
– You have been selected as the best customer.
– Various fees have been greatly reduced.
My guess was right.
When the High Priest made the promise, the binding force immediately extended to God as well.
This is causation.
The rules of space operation that even the Lord cannot avoid.
If there is a cause, the effect is also intertwined!
The terms of the contract were applied immediately to the gods who had been sucking honey through the temple.
The priests were unaware of this fact.
How their words affect the gods.
Even Alpha Doc here could not guess my amazing foresight and deep thoughts.
A true negotiation skill, not a scam.
It hit the jackpot again today.
– Are you sure you can handle it? The gods here are very strict.
Alphadak asks worriedly.
Okay.
I am not the one doing business with the gods for a day or two.
– I learned a few.
The voice of the light dragon Shantria, which was still quiet, could be heard.
The soul of Shantria connected by leather armor.
I felt that I was truly admiring myself.
– Aren’t you hurting yourself? Still, he was once a good dragon.
Alphadak asks Shantria.
– Does your pride feed you? And I have a dream!
This is a statement that shows Shantraa’s strong will.
The desire to become a god was conveyed intact.
A confrontation with Harkeus that does not end even after death.
If you listen carefully, I will definitely push you.
– thank you!
The dragon has laid down all of its true pride.
Now is the time to check the truth.
“Try to activate the movement magic circle.”
– Yep!
“Do you know the coordinates?”
“of course!”
Shantria has become my irreplaceable and faithful servant.
Paah.
As soon as the words were finished, the space opened through the moving magic circle.
A shantria that can’t use 9th circle magic, but can use up to 8th circle magic with ease.
He opened his rare door wide for me and replayed it.
