Upon hearing Allen's words, William instantly understood that Allen had read his thoughts like the back of his hand. Previously, he had assumed that it was divine punishment and that he wouldn't be spared. Thus, he roared furiously at the sorcerer hired by Harold. "Harold's evil sorcerer! Does that mean that the reason I was separated from the fleet was also your doing? You will suffer divine punishment for your crimes! "
"Harold's sorcerer?" Allen walked up to William and looked down at him condescendingly. "You've misunderstood. The Kings of Wessex have always been very devout. Their attitude towards sorcerers is different from yours, my Lord Duke … … Don't be in a hurry to be angry and despairing. If not for the storm that I stirred up, you would have encountered Harold who hadn't suffered a single loss. As you know, Harold had already set up defenses in the south waiting for you. He was biding his time while you were fatigued from the long journey. Under such circumstances, I believe you would have lost more than 300 ships … …"
William pursed his lips tightly, as though he could resist Allen's interpretation of his thoughts.
Allan sneered and shook his head before continuing. "Let me tell you a piece of good news that I'm afraid you're not aware of. Although Harold has defeated the vikings, he's still recuperating in York after suffering heavy losses."
Sensing the fanatical joy that surged in William's heart, Allen added. "Not only that, you might know that the coast isn't defended, but you might not know that the entire south of England isn't equipped with any decent defensive forces. Harold and his men are hoping that the Normans won't attack across the sea due to the autumn harvest season. In order to deal with the vikings, they have brought along all the forces they could. If you can land in Britain, at least the entire south will be within your reach. If you have a way to let Harold know that you have landed in Britain, he won't rush south from the north to engage in a decisive battle with you in the wilderness. Personally, I believe that with the Normans' troops and tactics, you will have a high chance of defeating the Britons who still rely on the shield wall strategy left behind by Rome."
"But all of this is on the premise that I can land in England, right?" William suppressed the joy he felt from Allen's words. He knew that this sorcerer didn't sound like Harold's man, so he must have a request. The bastard Duke looked at Allen's youthful face and seemed to have realized something. Although his attitude towards sorcerers was rather ambiguous, as a devout believer, the bastard Duke had his own bottom line. He roared at Allen, "Don't think that I, a devout believer, will agree to any conditions you evil sorcerers have!"
"Your Lordship, your imagination is rather rich. But I won't ask you to sacrifice young girls and bathe in their blood to retain your youth forever … I look so young because I am so young …" Allen was speechless as he glanced at the delighted and worried William. He felt that the bastard Duke had read too many legends and stories. He continued unhappily, "As long as you sign a contract with me, I can send you back to your fleet. You see, haven't you made agreements with many sorcerers to serve you? I believe this isn't a difficult task for you … "
"I won't make any agreements with sorcerers! What's the content of your contract? If it's evil, don't say it out loud! "William continued to roar with saliva dripping from his mouth.
William's blatant and contradictory way of speaking stunned Allen for a moment. Only then did he understand that William had the intention of making a deal. Not wanting to say anything more to the loud, spiteful, and hooligan-like Duke, Allen went straight to the point. "A magic contract. The content is that you have to acknowledge the ownership of a large piece of barren land designated by me. Although it actually belongs to Scotland now. As long as you and your heirs to the throne — not only your descendants, but also those who have inherited your throne in the name of the legitimate heir — acknowledge this, or they will be severely cursed and punished. Of course, I will guarantee that you will safely return to your fleet and land in England. "
The area around the Hogwarts had been cast with a Muggle Banishing Spell, so the Muggles could not see the Hogwarts. Even if a Muggle arrived at the entrance of the Hogwarts, they would only see the broken ruins with a "Danger Keep Out" sign hanging on it.
Muggle's electronic devices, including computers, televisions, radios, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, and so on, could not be used near the Hogwarts. This was because the air there was filled with a strong magical magnetic field, which would cause strong interference to electronic devices that had not been modified by sorcerers, such as sorcerer radios or sorcerer televisions.
What Allen wanted was the land around the Hogwarts and the large area around it. Although the Muggle could not find the specific location, it was not safe to rely on the Muggle Banishing Spell alone since no Muggle had developed the beautiful area after nearly a thousand years. Moreover, many sorcerers had connections with the royal family before the secrecy laws took effect. Ravenclaw's last prophecy was also a little bit of responsibility that she wanted Allen to bear for the Hogwarts they had established. Although she did not care much about the academy itself, she at least cared about Allen. She still cared a lot about Hufflepuff's wishes.
The power of magic? When he heard the word "magic", William's first reaction was to refuse. He was determined not to sign any contract with this sorcerer in front of him.
Allen's fingers moved, and the serpent's tongue that had turned into a sword blade gently brushed past his face. William's whole body quivered. From the position of Duke to the high and mighty throne bestowed by God, the image of the rich land of England appeared in his mind once again …
William's heart was in a dilemma. If he did not agree to this demon-like sorcerer in front of him, he and his subordinates might have to stay in this sea forever. The attraction of the throne, the coast that was within reach, and the threat of death that was close at hand … He could almost feel the cold breath of the serpent on his cheek. Under the threat of life and the temptation of power, he constantly prayed in his heart for the protection of the god he believed in. William's fist clenched at his side. Being looked down upon by the other party made William, who had absolute authority in Normandy, very uncomfortable. It was also a pity that he might have to divide a large area of land that did not even belong to him. However, it was clear that the sorcerers he had raised would not be a match for the other party even if they worked together. After calming down and thinking about it for a while, he naturally knew what to do.
"Looks like you've made your decision." Allen took out a piece of parchment and let it float in the air. He then used a quill to write in Latin on it. Just like the precious and specially decorated manuscripts that William was familiar with, the Latin words on the parchment began to appear. Decorative initial letters and painted decorative borders began to appear.
"Let me see the contract!" William frowned, looking like a lion that was about to fly into a rage. The contract in Allen's hand flew into his hand. William's eyes were as sharp as a vulture's as he stared fiercely at the contract in his hand for a long time.
After a long while, William, who had been sizing up Armand Malfoy with great interest, turned to look at him. Malfoy's Allen suddenly turned his head to look at William. At this moment, William still had a serious expression as if he was reading the terms and conditions. However, through the use of telepathy and recalling the contents of the history lesson, Allen was shocked to discover that this Duke William of Normandy actually had very serious reading and writing difficulties. He was completely illiterate and could not understand the words on the contract at all.
"Merlin's fattest underwear! You're an illiterate and you're still pretending to read the contract so arrogantly?! "Allen finally could not hold back and roared back at William, his saliva spraying all over William's face.
