Hail the King

Chapter 418: A Smart Person’s Decision

For a moment, Abramovich was stunned. He didn’t know who this dark-skinned man was.

“How dare he speak to the king of Chambord like this? From his tone, it feels like they know each other well…… But it is obvious that he doesn’t know who the king of Chambord is……”

Fei smiled and didn’t explain anything. He waved at Husky and signaled him to come over.

“Your Majesty, this is……” Abramovich asked with a bright smile on his face.

“Let me introduce you guys to each other. This is a friend of mine who I just made. I hid my identity from him before.”

Fei didn’t hide his identity anymore. After he told Abramovich how he and Husky met each other and praised Jessica multiple times, he patted Husky’s shoulder and asked with a smile on his face, “Emile, sorry that I hid my identity before. You don’t mind it, do you?”

Husky was stunned.

His eyes opened wide, and he couldn’t believe what was going on.

After a while, he finally reacted. He patted Fei’s shoulder and laughed out loud, “So you are King Alexander His Majesty! Haha! Am I going to become your guard? Great! Nice to meet you, sir! I will do my best…… Eh, sorry, sir! I shouldn’t have touched you…… I……”

This simple-minded man was so excited that he was all over the place and didn’t know what to say. He didn’t mind Fei hiding the identity at all! It seemed like this man never knew how to blame others and be bothered.

“It is quite unexpected, Your Majesty. No one expected you to do investigations around Dual-Flags City yourself, haha! I’m sure Your Majesty already got all the information you need. This brother named Emile sure is lucky!” Abramovich said.

He was quite surprised by what Fei did. “This king already quietly went around the city and got all the detailed information. What a nice move!” he thought; his impression of Fei got even better.

After he thought for a while, he proposed, “Soros’ Merchant Group’s Dual-Flags City division is short on a female manager. Since Your Majesty just mentioned that Emile’s sister is smart and is capable of great things, I would have to risk offending you and Emile by asking her to join my division. Is that doable? Your Majesty?”

After founding out that there was a secret on Jessica that could be related to Angela, Fei had been trying to help the poor girl out. However, she couldn’t join the military like her brother.

After considering all options, it seemed to Fei that Soros’ Merchant Group that could take on the Mage Union, Mercenary Union, and the nobles was a great alternative.

Abramovich was a smart person. As soon as Fei praised Jessica who wasn’t even present, he understood the intent of this king who just came into power.

This was a great opportunity for him.

From the tone the king of Chambord used, he knew that this king valued this girl named Jessica. If she joined this division of Soros’ Merchant Group, it would almost tie the king of Chambord and himself together and put them on the same boat. This was much more effective than giving this king gifts.

Soros’ Merchant Group was a massive organization; it had numerous divisions that resided in almost all empires and all regions. Although these divisions belonged to the same organization, the competition between them was fierce. By going from a slave who had nothing to a manager in this big organization, Abramovich had unique characteristics and methods that others couldn’t copy.

However, he hasn’t got a single promotion since he became the manager at this division in Dual-Flags City three years ago.

It was apparent to him that he couldn’t go higher on his own. He was only a merchant who had some resources and some connections; if he wanted to get more influential, he needed a powerful ally who had similar potentials, and this ally had to give him strong support in the areas he lacked.

In the last three years, Abramovich had been accumulating resources and paying close attention to the situation in Zenit; he wanted to find an ally that matched his criteria.

King Alexander of Chambord’s appearance did catch his attention.

In the beginning, Abramovich didn’t have much faith in the king of Chambord. In this world where power, background, and influence were everything, what could the king of a level 6 affiliated kingdom do?

As the competition among the affiliated kingdom took place, this smart man quickly changed his mindset.

He saw limitless potential in this king; the kind of potential that would scare a lot of people.

After some careful observations, Abramovich found that this King Alexander was a potential ally that the gods gifted to him; in his mind, the king of Chambord was the perfect ally for him.

When he got ready and was going to go to St. Petersburg and meet up with this king, the shocking news broke out; Martial Saint Krasic died on the Martial Saint Mountain, more wars were declared, and the king of Chambord became the No.1 Commander of Jax Battle Zone.

This news excited him.

Shortly after, his old friend Redknapp from St. Petersburg sent him a letter recommending the king of Chambord and reminding him to network with this king.

Everything was happening in a sequence that Abramovich could only hope for; he felt like the Goddess of Fate was favoring him.

When Fei arrived with the 6,000 cavaliers, Abramovich started to monitor everything closely.

Heroically charging into the enemies to save Ribry, dominating over the head commander of Jax, executing the leaders of the seven noble families, arresting Mayor Soroyov, constructing the militia, creating temporary new laws……

All of these direct and ballsy moves helped Abramovich to decide on partnering up with Fei.

Therefore, he chose a time that he considered appropriate and came to see Fei with a lot of gifts.

When Fei indirectly expressed his relationship with this girl named Jessica, Abramovich immediately understood it, and he gave the invitation proactively. To Soros’ Merchant Group that had a lot of money, paying and looking after a girl was nothing.

After hearing Abramovich’s invitation, Fei nodded out of satisfaction.

However, he didn’t like playing the role of a dictator. Therefore, he turned around and asked Husky who was still shocked, “Emile, what do you think? Should Jessica learn from Manager Abramovich and get involved in the business world?”

Husky felt like he couldn’t comprehend the situation.

Even an idiot knew the influence of Soros’ Merchant Group! Usually, people couldn’t even get into the division of the group in Dual-Flags City didn’t matter how hard they tried, but the manager of the division was inviting his sister to join? Husky was so overwhelmed that he didn’t know what to say.

“I will listen to you. Whatever you say, sir!” in the end, Husky stopped thinking and replied with this firm response.

“Hahaha! Damn! Is your head full of muscles?” Fei joked with this simple-minded man.

The king was pleased with this answer; for some reason, this simple-minded man made him feel intimate and relaxed.

Fei said to Abramovich, “Since this is the case, then I will thank you in advance for looking after the sister of my friend.”

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty!” Abramovich nodded and replied. He instantly valued this girl named Jessica a lot more after hearing what Fei said.

“Could it be that there is a deeper relationship between them? If this is the case, I need to be more serious,” he thought curiously.

Of course, Abramovich knew that he couldn’t become an ally to the king of Chambord using these small tactics.

On the Azeroth Continent, the most secure alliance was created by allies who could add a lot of values to each other. Therefore, Abramovich knew that he needed to show the king of Chambord enough reasons to treat him as an ally and not just a friend.

After thinking about that, he walked to the six chests.

Click! After he pressed a button on top of one chest, a series of cranking noises sounded, and the top of the chest opened up like a metal flower that was blossoming.

All sorts of colorful lights appeared in the dark watchtower.

Magic gems!

This chest contained various magic gems.

Fei walked up to the chest and picked up a few. He instantly sensed the chilling sensation, and his hand was lit up by vibrant colors. Although these magic gems were low-tier gems, there were tens of thousands of them; it was a great gift. Since Fei had the insane item [Horadric Cube] and was able to combine them to create high-level magic gems, the value of this chest was far beyond the market value.

The magic gems that Priest Zola at Chambord gave Fei as a present were almost all used, so these magic gems came at the right time.
