Chapter 141

Ibro's smile became wider and wider when he heard her words. She thought there was something wrong about him, or why he was smiling this confidently in front of her?

"Let me tell you a story. You may choose freely either to believe it or not. This story is about a small village called Hepatia. This village has just upgraded from village under construction grade to esteemed village grade.

This village had nearly 600k population and over 50 million soldiers' army with soldiers over level 30. This village had one saint observing its daily issues.

This village had over 30 generals from the caliber of commander in chief and supreme commander's caliber. This village is very far from you but if you choose to be my enemy then I can give you one promise.

I won't care about how long we are separated from each other, I will turn the mountains and cross all these lands to reach you here and then conquer you like I always do with my enemies."

"Oh, I didn't think you could be this romantic. We just met and you will cross oceans just to meet me."

Ibro felt weird again, what was wrong with this girl?

"Don't think I'm a crazy girl. What I just told you now weren't my words actually. These were my older brother's words."

Ibro looked suspiciously towards her but a sudden appearance of a familiar window made Ibro froze in his place. That window was like the one Sefiera used to appear in when she contacted him every time.

"So my guess was right then. You also have an assistant by your side. That's good."

"Who are you?"

"Me? I'm her older brother. You know, if you want to go out with my little sis you need to take my permission first."

"Who said anything about going out with your sister? I have a GF back home."

"What does that even mean? She isn't here and my brother had over 50 GF till now."

"That is just in case you don't count my formal wives."

"Yeah, see? There is no problem at all."

Ibro looked speechless to these two brothers.

"You know your look now is very funny. Ok, let's speak seriously. You have an assistant, make her come out."

"Why?"

"Because I want to speak with him or her. You don't know anything about the mess you have put yourself at."

Ibro held his arms in front of his chest and said firmly:

"I won't make her come out. If you feel I know nothing then I would be pleased to know all this knowledge from you."

That early thirtieth man looked at Ibro and said with a pale smile:

"Why should I tell you anything? If you want to know something you need to pay the price for it."

"What about my help to your sister just now in that war?"

"It was great generosity from you my young lord, so why should we repay kindness? That would be insulting to you."

Ibro felt this man was really mean. Unlike his sister, he was really a man of benefits. He now believed that what Noda said before was this older mean brother. But he had a point there and Ibro couldn't argue his shamelessness.

"Then what price would you like to agree upon for telling me what I don't know?"

"Believe me; you don't have anything of value to me or to my sister.

If you want to pay the appropriate price then you should make your assistant come forth and talk to me. I mean no harm to your assistant; I'm just looking for making an alliance with him."

Ibro didn't believe a single word from this mean man. He thought a little about his words. These words meant that this man had his own territory or his own guild or whatever he had.

Ibro thought before that Sefiera was a loser like Hoden and Mamor. It seemed that he really knew nothing about even those who were close to him.

He recalled those monsters' commander words to Noda at the battle. Wasn't her brother supposed to be like a rival to Mantier or Mantier's boss?

That meant this brother of hers was really some big shot in the older worlds. That also meant that Sefiera was always like him. Then why would someone like him and Sefiera be an assistant to himself or Noda in this recent world? What was really their goal?

"I have another thing that your little sister might need?"

"What is it?"

"I can help her upgrade her village to the next grade like my village."

That brother looked deeply towards Ibro. He didn't think such a young man had managed to put his hands on the most painful spot in his sister territory. That young man wasn't simple at all.

He thought that his success to this point was due to the efforts of his assistant. That was the reason why he wanted to talk to this assistant.

But now he began to be interested in this young man in front of him.

"How do you plan to do so?"

"Noda's village lacked the population. She had the power to defend her village throughout the upgrade challenge test. What she lacks isn't power but population. I can help her get the population needed for her to upgrade the village."

"That was just one point in the problem list of my sister. There is also another problem here."

"What is it? Was she cursed too?"

"Oh, it seems you really got cursed like the rumors say."

"Rumors? What rumors?"

"Nothing important. Now let's talk again about my sister's other problem. There is no curse here. The problem lied in the presence of two strong enemies that wanted to capture her alive, one is Mantier himself and the other one is Lofram himself."

Ibro knew Mantier. He was the one who tried to kill him so many times already. But there was a new name here. He immediately asked with curiosity:

"Who is Lofram?"

"He is like Mantier but at the surface monsters."

"Surface monsters also have some strong leaders like underground monsters?"

"Of course. You know nothing young man. There is a whole new world here who you know nothing about."

He was right. Ibro didn't know anything about that world. He now knew there was someone like Mantier out there. He felt lucky that he didn't face this monster while he was upgrading his village before.

If he decided to help Noda here then he might gain the wrath of this monster. That was an additional risk and more danger to his village.

"I'm ready to help her bypass these three obstacles, but your price isn't enough for me to do so."

"What do you mean?"

Ibro smiled. That means the older brother of Noda wasn't a simple nor a fool. He understood Ibro's meaning perfectly. He didn't say anything and just kept looking at this brother. After a few silent moments that brother finally said:

"Alright, I understand what you mean. It's not easy to play dumb in front of smart people. Tell me what price do you want in addition to information?"

Ibro didn't let go of this opportunity as he said at once:

"I want to give me a way that helps me to return to my village. I also want to make an alliance with Noda village and guild."

"That price is acceptable for me."

"I also want all the treasure chest Noda will get by my help from surface monsters strongholds."

"Your appetite is big, kid. Are you after the pure coins?"
