Chapter 749 A shocking offer

However, there was still a drained feeling that filled me as I now carried the Staff of Earth on my back.

There was no need for me to do this, but I discovered something after recovering from being drained by the Staff of Earth.

It was that my mana pools were much larger than before.

It seemed that by draining myself of all my mana, I was able to increase the size of my mana pools.

Well, I had already discovered this before, but it seemed like the effects were much better when I used the Staff of Earth.

Was it because it was a relic from a god?

That was the only explanation that I could think of.

As for why I was carrying it on my back, I found that it also had an effect of increasing the size of my mana pool just by the natural draining effect that it had. Just carrying it on my back and letting it use my mana like this also increased the size of my mana pool.

Though it was less prominent than letting myself be completely drained by the Staff of Earth.

Still, it was better than collapsing and creating a scene.

This would allow me to slowly become stronger by building up the size of my mana pool.

Perhaps one day I'll be able to use the Staff of Earth without falling unconscious.

As for the reason why we were in the castle now, that was because there was something that I had to discuss with the Dwarven King. It was something that I had wanted to discuss a long time ago, but I never got the chance to discuss it with him.

I had also left this matter with Elsa, but she hadn't been able to find a way to talk to her brother about this.

Or rather, it was hard for her to bring it up since she couldn't find a way of bringing it up without seeming suspicious.

But after this incident, it seemed like the perfect time to bring it up.

"I want to give you some wyverns." I said without any hesitation when we sat down.

The Dwarven King looked at me with a shocked look as if he didn't know how to respond to this. He just kept looking at me like this as if he was trying to figure out if I was being serious or not.

When he saw that my expression didn't change at all, he simply asked, "Why?"

In a calm voice, I said, "Well, you should already know about our kingdom's situation with the wyverns, right?"

The Dwarven King narrowed his eyes to look at me for a bit before slowly giving a nod.

This was something that most countries should have information on since this was a matter of national security. If they didn't know about these wyverns and they suddenly showed up on their doorsteps one day, they could only blame themselves for what happened.

So of course the Dwarven Kingdom also knew about the wyverns.

But their response was more mild than the other countries just because of the alliance that they had formed with our Kite Kingdom.

That didn't mean that they still weren't wary of the wyverns.

It was a personal alliance that the Dwarven King had formed with me and I was only a duke of the Kite Kingdom.

The dwarves knew that humans could change their plans whenever, so it wasn't as if they would sink all their eggs into one basket.

But now that I had made this proposal, the Dwarven King just had no idea what to make of it.

It could be a trap or it could be a genuine offer.

There was no telling what was real based on just the information that he currently had.

Before he accepted this offer, the Dwarven King had a few more things that he needed to ask.

Seeing him nod in agreement, I continued by saying, "You should already know that I'm the one that controls the wyverns."

I once again paused to wait for his reaction.

The Dwarven King was surprised, but it was more that he was surprised that I would actually tell him this rather than being surprised by what I had said. After all, this was information that would be considered basic, so it wasn't strange if he already knew about this.

A nation survived on information gathered and a nation that wasn't able to collect this basic kind of information wouldn't be considered a proper nation.

It would be a nice piece of meat that would be torn apart by the other nations around it.

So of course the Dwarven King would already know about this.

After looking at me for a bit, he once again gave a nod in response.

But still he didn't say a thing as he waited to see what else I had to say.

So I calmly continued by saying, "Since I'm the one that controls the wyverns, I'm the one that can decide who I want them to follow. As such, I want to choose people that I can trust. I hope you understand what I mean."

The Dwarven King didn't seem to react at first when he heard this, but he eventually revealed a touched look as he said, "I'm honoured that you would think of me this way, but you should know that…"

He didn't finish his sentence, but it was clear what he was implying.

I gave a nod in response since I had already expected this.

While I didn't know much about the politics of the Dwarven Kingdom, I had my experience with what happened before. I knew at the very least that there was the chance that someone might try something.

So I just calmly said, "Unless I give the order, they will not follow anyone that I do not permit. I hope that you will choose your people wisely."
