"What do you mean by that? We don't mean that. Elders, we're just afraid that you've been wronged by the humans — "
Crystal Dragon Nick stood up and tried to smooth things over, but he was interrupted by a sudden voice halfway through.
Roddy was standing at the door of the lounge and said to Nick, "I don't think the Kingdom of Karen will let the elders suffer any grievances."
This sentence was an answer and also a statement. Roddy's face did not have the usual warm smile. He looked calm, but his brows were slightly furrowed and his tone was not friendly.
Unlike his usual loose and comfortable robe, he was wearing leather armor at this time. A short cloak covered his shoulder pads, and the short sword given by Lord Victor hung at his waist. However, Basta was not here, and the other Dragons did not recognize what this was.
Aglais and the other Dragons realized that the Prime Minister had come in person, and their expressions changed. But in the next three seconds, none of them stood up to greet him.
This was because in the past, when they teased this "Prime Minister", they never had much respect, and they would even compare and despise Roddy.
It was normal to speak ill of him behind his back. Even if they called Roddy a "stronger ant", no one would say anything. It was just that the more they said, the more they looked down on Roddy. Now that they really saw the Prime Minister, they did not feel the need to get up and greet him — only the Lord deserved this kind of courtesy. He was just a human, was it necessary?
Argus The Red Dragon did not move, and the Green Dragon and Black Dragon Herrlöw just sat up straight. Only the Crystal Dragon Nick hesitated and stood up, "Prime Minister, don't misunderstand, we were just … just joking."
Iscar and the others had already gotten up, but their posture was very natural. Stika directly took a cup and asked, "What would the Prime Minister like to drink?"
"Hot water is fine." Roddy nodded and stepped in front of everyone. Aglais, who had been sitting in the armchair, raised his hand and pointed to the side, "The Prime Minister is here too? Come and have a seat! "
His attitude made it seem as if he was the owner of this place. Not only Roddy, but Iscar and the others also raised their eyebrows and looked at him as if he was a freak.
"Oh, we'll talk about this later."
Roddy walked straight in. The green dragon Dean saw his intention and immediately reached out to stop him. "That — the Prime Minister is looking for Basta? He's having a private chat with Kardashian … "
In the end, Roddy didn't even look at him and walked straight past. Dean's hand touched the side of Roddy's leather armor and was knocked away on the spot.
Dean opened his mouth slightly and a hint of annoyance flashed across his face. However, before he could speak, the Black Dragon Herrlöw waved his hand and mouthed, "Watch the show."
During this time, Basta was still pestering Kardashian. Although the latter had made things clear, she obviously underestimated how shameless Basta could be — because he had previously boasted in front of Aglais and the others that he would definitely "get her" today …
Being rejected was not the problem. The problem was that after Kardashian reprimanded him so loudly, everyone knew that his plan to pick up the girl had completely failed. Although Bast wouldn't fly into a rage out of humiliation, it was impossible for him to just leave like that.
"Kardashian … I didn't mean it that way. Don't think too much."
He had no other way now and could only stubbornly say, "I'm doing this for your own good!"
"For my own good? What qualifications and position do you have to say such things? "Kardashian sneered." Do you think that you're the smartest in this world? That everyone else is so stupid that they need you to save them to survive? "
"You can't say it like that. Don't make such extreme assumptions about me. I admit that my words just now were inappropriate. I'm sorry." Basta was apologizing, but his tone had a sense of "ultimatum". "But even if we can't be together, I don't want us to be so stiff, right?"
"The problem is back to the point. Your so-called 'together', isn't it to let me be your mistress?"
Kardashian crossed her arms. "I'm not that cheap. What did you call me just now? Well … Honorary Elder, right? Do you think that it will make you excited to have an Honorary Elder? "
"Don't lie to yourself anymore!" Basta finally couldn't bear it. He raised his hand to cast a Silence Enchantment and said with a ferocious expression, "What is an Honorary Elder? Don't you know it in your heart? Look at Iscar and the others. They are completely useless now. Wake up, Kardashian! What can this broken Magic Tower bring you? "
"If you don't make a choice quickly, you will only be alienated by the Dragons in the future … Look at this time, who else came to find you? Everyone knows that an 'Honorary Elder' like you has no practical meaning! "
What Basta said was also the truth. Because among the five Dragons, most of the members had the same view as him. Not to mention Kardashian, including Iscar and the others, they stayed in the laboratory these days. None of their good friends in the past came to visit …
In the eyes of humans, this was coldness, but Kardashian and the others were not surprised at all. Because they knew that the values of the Dragons were so bare and realistic that they didn't even bother to be polite.
"I don't mean to treat you as a mistress, but you also know that if I become an Elder in the future, I'm afraid the Lord will arrange another partner …"
Before Basta could finish, Kardashian waved her hand and said, "Put away your act and leave with the group of people you brought. I feel disgusted when I see you now."
This sentence made Basta clench his fist. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. "I really don't know what you're doing with this group of useless people! Essien and the others are not even comparable to a Magister. If we really fight, I can finish them in less than ten seconds … Not to mention that Prime Minister — "
As he said, he reached out to grab Kardashian's wrist again. The latter wanted to dodge, but this time, Basta did not let her succeed and firmly grabbed her.
"What? You didn't learn anything else, but your hands are quite fast? "
Even if there was an absolute gap in strength, Kardashian did not have the slightest fear for Basta. On the contrary, she directly raised her wrist and looked at him with her head tilted. "Do you think it makes sense to do this … Or do you think violence can solve the problem? To make me submit? "
"I …"
These two sentences extinguished the fire in Basta's heart. He was just about to let go when he found that Kardashian's gaze was focused behind him. When he looked back, he found that Roddy was standing there.
The Soundproof Enchantment was still there, but Basta just remembered that he did not notice the other party's approach. He quickly let go of Kardashian's hand, but his expression was not very awkward. "Oh, Prime Minister Roddy … I have something to talk to her about."
Facing Roddy, he had a lot of psychological superiority. Because there was no flaw in Roddy's disguise of a "coward" in front of him, Basta had always thought that the Prime Minister was completely a character who fawned on those in power. When he chatted with Aglais and the others, he was the one who took the lead in ridiculing the most.
