Although Kael had never met Fluder Paradyne, based on his character in the original Overlord work, it wasn't difficult to guess the purpose of his journey. Firstly, Fluder was a high-ranking figure in the empire, and his only interest and hobby was studying magic. He was basically an old otaku and wouldn't easily leave the Imperial Capital's Magic Province.
There could only be two possibilities for this situation:
A powerful monster had appeared in the empire, and he had to be deployed as a stabilizing force to deal with it.
It was for his personal reasons, and it was related to magic.
If one considered the direction of the Imperial Royal Fleet, the second possibility was more likely. Fluder should be heading to E-Rantel to meet "a person with profound magical abilities."
Since the other party was taking the initiative to come and visit, Kael was too lazy to go to the Baharuth Empire and chose to wait in E-Rantel. Thinking about this carefree matter, he naturally felt even more relaxed, and the pop music in his ears seemed to sound much more beautiful.
Beep beep!
Hmm? There's another one?
Another magic communication connected to his body, and Kael was slightly surprised. This time, it was Enri connecting with him.
Could something be wrong with the resurrection of the victims? With that thought flashing through his mind, Kael connected to Enri's message and asked, "Enri, what's happening?"
"Yes, God, Sir Quaiesse Hazeia Quintia of the Slane Theocracy and Miss Lakyus Alvein Dale Aindra of Blue Roses wish to meet you. Do you have time?" Enri gave this answer, her tone respectful.
Kael thought for a moment, unable to understand why the Slane Theocracy and Blue Roses wanted to meet him. So, he agreed with a hint of curiosity, "Very well, then you can bring them here, or meet me in the hall."
"Yes," Enri respectfully obeyed the command then disconnected the magic.
Kael then stood from the recliner, put away his music box magic item, and leisurely flew towards the meeting hall.
Soon, he arrived at the conference room. Quaiesse, Lakyus, and the others had already arrived. Upon sensing Kael's presence, they all placed their right hands on their chests and bowed respectfully.
After Kael floated to his exclusive throne and sat down, his eyes swept over Quaiesse and his entourage. This time, three people had come from the Black Scripture: besides Quaiesse, there was also a disheveled female magic caster known as [Unlimited Magic] and a muscular man known as [Strongest Human].
On Lakyus's side, she was followed by a young-looking blonde boy.
This... Climb? Kael observed the boy up and down, guessing his identity from his thick eyebrows and his association with Lakyus.
However, he didn't pay too much attention and asked Quaiesse first, "Tell me, why have you come to see me?"
The gentle Quaiesse bowed first, then replied, "Your Excellency, I have come to see you this time mainly for two matters. The first is about the personnel exchange related to our country's special force, the Sunlight Scripture, and the second is to convey our country's High Priest's respect and the fact that our country wishes to gain your friendship."
"Ah~" Kael raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, and a hint of interest appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There wasn't much to say about the Sunlight Scripture matter. As long as the Slane Theocracy paid the ransom, he would return those people.
The fact that the Slane Theocracy wanted to get closer to him was something worth pondering. Because of the Eight Greed Kings, the Slane Theocracy hadn't always been friendly with Yggdrasil players traveling to this world; rather, they were more cautious.
Therefore, even though Kael was a human player and had a friendly attitude towards humans, the Slane Theocracy shouldn't have taken the initiative to contact him like this. The greater possibility was that the Slane Theocracy felt a crisis from the E-Rantel incident and wanted to use him to gain some kind of advantage.
Kael wasn't particularly opposed to this. After all, the Slane Theocracy was the strongest human nation in the surrounding area and had a certain value. Moreover, now that the other party had come to him to curry favor, the initiative was in his hands, and he might be able to gain some benefits from it.
"My friendship is very valuable, not everyone can get it. How do you plan to win it?" Kael tilted his head slightly, rested his right elbow on the armrest of the throne, propped his cheek with his palm, and asked with a smile.
As long as there's interest, there's room for communication.
Seeing the smile on Kael's face, Quaiesse was slightly pleased, and calmly stated what had been discussed with the High Priest: "Your Excellency, our country is sincere about this. After hearing that you intend to establish a church, the High Priest said that our country can fully assist you in achieving this desire, and we welcome you to establish branch temples in our country."
After saying that, Quaiesse paused for a moment and observed Kael's reaction. After seeing that Kael seemed unchanged and was still smiling at him, he continued, "Of course, if you have any other needs, we will do our best to fulfill them."
"Yes, that sounds good," Kael nodded, as if very satisfied with Quaiesse's attitude, and ended the topic with a sentence, "Then, you should help Enri for a while in completing the construction of the church branch in E-Rantel. I will tell you when I've thought of something."
"Yes, I will report your wishes to the country as soon as I return," Quaiesse smiled and bowed, sighing in relief. His mission was successfully completed, and the process was even smoother than he had imagined.
After dealing with the Slane Theocracy, Kael looked at Lakyus and Climb. Without waiting for him to ask, Lakyus stepped forward very quickly and explained her purpose to Kael.
"Your Excellency, this young man is the direct bodyguard of our country's third princess, Golden Princess Renner. He has heard about your and the Church of Destiny's active role in this city's disaster and greatly admires you, so he wishes to request to join your church and become your follower."
"Hmm?" Kael looked at Climb with a puzzled gaze.
He didn't believe a word of Lakyus's statement, that Climb wanted to become a believer in destiny because he admired him.
Who is that blonde boy?
He was the Golden Princess's number one sycophant. His attitude towards the Golden Princess was almost like Gazef's attitude towards the old King Ramposa III, fiercely loyal.
Therefore, Climb's desire to become a believer in destiny must be to gain power, and it had absolutely nothing to do with whether someone worshipped him or not.
Thinking about this, Kael felt a little displeased. What's going on? Do you think I'm a wish-granting machine or Doraemon? You have no hesitation at all when you want to get something for free.
