Chapter 949: Chapter 338: First Form (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

“At that time, if I want to kill the opponent, it will be much more difficult.”

“No, perhaps, there’s simply no possibility of killing the opponent at all,” Rein couldn’t help but shake his head, thinking to himself.

“Earl Isaac, the situation in the Mingster Province has been quite turbulent recently. If there’s any situation, please contact me at any time,” Rein comforted.

“Thank you, Lord Rein. Actually, the situation in Mingster is considered better. My nephew is in the Marn Province of the Empire’s Northern Border, and the situation there is terrible! Three counties have already fallen,” Earl Isaac said, shaking his head with apparent helplessness over the current state of the Empire.

“Marn Province? The one near the Frostwind Prairie?” Rein suddenly remembered something and couldn’t help asking.

“Yes, that’s the one. Are you familiar with it, Lord Rein?”

“Not really, I just have a friend there. By the way, Earl Isaac, what position does your nephew hold?”

“He is also a member of the Swordsmen organization, like yourself, Lord Rein. My nephew is a Silver Level Sword Bearer in Marn Province.”

…

At this moment, a large group of people dressed differently from the Imperial citizens approached, surrounding an imposing noblewoman.

Rein looked up and was slightly surprised.

He naturally recognized the newcomers; they were the Federation Mission, and the leading noblewoman was the team’s head, seemingly named Treena.

“Viscount Rein, your transcendent and fearless performance in the battle just now was truly admirable,” Envoy Treena gracefully stepped forward, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and said.

Treena was wearing a black pleated skirt this time, replacing her previous hunting attire, adding a touch of allure to her aura of high status and power.

The overall impression she gave was uniquely charming.

Faced with Envoy Treena’s praise, Rein smiled slightly and bowed, “Thank you, Envoy, for the compliment, but in comparison, the Griffin Knights are braver and more fearless than I am.”

“As a member of the Imperial Swordsmen, like the brave defenders of Bright Star, I simply did what I should do.”

Upon hearing Rein’s words, the nearby Griffin Knights felt honored, and even Viscount Felk displayed an understanding look, while Fishe was so excited his face turned red.

Look!

Lord Rein is not only powerful but also holds us in such high regard!

The defenders of Bright Star, led by Earl Isaac, also felt warmth in their hearts, despite their defeat, for neither Lord Rein nor the Griffin Knights looked down on them as comrades.

“Viscount Rein, I would like to invite you on behalf of the Federation Mission to tour our Lancelot-class mega gunboat,” Treena invited with a charming smile.

Many things are naturally not suitable to say in front of so many people, so Treena thought of such an idea to invite Rein to tour the airship.

As long as Rein boarded the gunboat, she would naturally have the chance to be alone with him.

She only needed a few minutes, and she believed that with her ability to communicate, she could offer this young man a sufficiently weighted olive branch.

It wasn’t that she thought she could persuade Rein to switch allegiance to the Federation within a few minutes.

But rather, she intended to plant a seed in his mind, a seed that might lead him to join the Federation, while also letting him know that the Federation’s doors would always be open to him.

“Well…” Rein appeared contemplative.

He certainly wanted to take a look; he was quite curious about the Eagle Federation.

Whether it was the steam power of the opposing airships or the firepower displayed during the recent battle, both had their strengths, in which the Empire was much behind.

However, at this moment, as an official of the Empire, it wasn’t quite appropriate to accept an invitation to board a foreign airship.

At this moment, the astute Duke Victor from a distance saw the scene and immediately shouted:

“Haha, Envoy Treena, it’s still quite chaotic here. Why did you all descend from the airship? If anything unexpected happens, it won’t be good.”

Upon hearing Victor’s voice, Treena couldn’t help but furrow her brows, thinking to herself what a missed great opportunity.

However, she could tell that Rein was still very interested in visiting the Lancelot-class gunboat.

In other words, she still had a chance.

“Duke Victor, you are too kind; we wanted to see if there is any way we can help,” Treena replied with a slight smile.

Victor, of course, didn’t believe Treena’s words at all.

“Envoy Treena, thank you for your country’s cooperation and assistance in the recent battle, much appreciated. I think Duke of Minter will handle the following issues appropriately.”

“To not affect your mission’s subsequent itinerary, I suggest we should hurry back to Mingster. What’s your opinion?” Victor suggested with a smile.

“Of course, we can set off to return now.” Treena nodded and replied with a smile.

…

At this moment, Duke Victor hurried steps to Rein’s side, with a wide grin, warmly grabbing Rein’s hand and saying:

“Viscount Rein, it’s a pity for your talents to remain in Mingster. You should go to the Imperial City where there’s a broader stage and more resources for growth.”

“Thank you, Duke Victor, but currently my family is in Mingster, so I probably won’t consider moving to the Imperial City in the short term,” Rein replied with a slight smile.

“Your family? That’s too easy. As long as you come to the Imperial City, your family can relocate altogether, and I’ll take care of all the formalities,” Victor patted his chest, promising.
