This Lich Requests More Remuneration
Chapter 537 - 482: I Come for Peace_3

The Laine Empire continuously expanded outward, gradually eroding its neighbors’ territories, which is why it now has such a vast expanse of land to sustain its large population.

However, since this debt had accumulated many years ago, the land that had been taken over hundreds of years naturally became Laine’s.

Ange Watson, however, replied unflinchingly, "It was the Orcs who violated the original non-aggression pact, which led to Laine’s retaliation. This land has long been part of Laine, Master Ultraman. If you speak of the past, then I can only say that the Orc Empire was established with Laine’s help."

"Yes, the great Saint King Arthur Laine helped various races establish their own kingdoms, hoping that all races could live freely, equally, and with dignity. Yet what has Laine done over these seventeen hundred years? Your frenzied racial nationalism and zealous religious nationalism have been furiously harming your neighbors. If Arthur Laine were still alive, seeing your actions, he would be so disappointed..."

Amberser was abruptly interrupted by an enraged Ange Watson.

"How dare you mention that name! I sternly warn you, you do not have the right to speak the Saint King’s name, Master Ultraman. I respect your knowledge and deeds, but I seriously warn you, the Saint King is not a tool for your rhetorical performances. This is blasphemy, a declaration of war against the entire Laine Empire!"

Amberser, observing Ange Watson’s furious demeanor, hadn’t expected him to still be such a fervent fan of Arthur. Amberser had thought he was like the Ironblood General, a ruthless type who didn’t care for tradition.

Facing Ange Watson’s anger, Amberser replied calmly, "You know the truth in your heart. You wage war, staining the Emerald River with the blood of the innocent. Meanwhile, I, as an Undead, am saving the world, forsaking my own interests for fewer sacrifices. Ange, between you and me, who truly is blaspheming the Saint King?"

Ange Watson clenched his teeth. This retort left him unable to respond, but failing to outtalk Amberser didn’t mean he was persuaded.

"Master Ultraman, both you and I know your heart is only filled with wealth. No matter what you’ve done, the rust scent of Gold Coins is all that your Soul Fire emits. So let’s not waste any more time. What exactly do you mean by this so-called mediation?"

Amberser felt somewhat sentimental. Compared to Allen, Ange Watson was not only older but also much more mature in his worldviews, not easily swayed by a few words. Thus, Amberser did not waste any time and directly said, "I am planning to host a meeting, inviting the Elven King, Grand Druid, Dwarf King, Orc King, and your Emperor of Laine."

"I must emphasize again, I am here for world peace. Thus, I will invite all the kings to this peace conference, to completely resolve everyone’s disputes. My goal is to eradicate war, allowing everyone to live in peace and contentment."

After finishing his speech, Amberser sent a delicately crafted small box through the Magic Mirror to Ange Watson.

"Take this gift to your Emperor. It is the invitation from me. Once he reads the content inside, I think he will understand my good intentions."
