Armipotent

After the meeting with the First Order Guild, Zhang Mengyao went to meet Reinar Thamsen in another room. She entered the room and noticed Reinar did not come alone. He came with another three people, and she recognized one of them, Arnor Ollsen.

Zhang Mengyao did not hide her disgust and displeasure for Arnor Ollsen, taking the main seat, looking straight at Reinar Thamsen, “If you are going to talk about the compensation, you better leave. You are wasting my time.” She was direct with her words. It is natural for her to guess their purpose like that with Arnor Ollsen with them.

“Oh, no. You misunderstand us, Lady Zhang. We come here to apologize to you,” Reinar Thamsen nudged Arnor with his elbow.

Arnor Ollsen stood up from his chair, and bowed his head toward Zhang Mengyao, “I apologize for my rude behavior and disrespect the other day.” Then the Duke’s descendant returned to his seat.

Zhang Mengyao squinted her eyes, eyeing Arnor Ollsen. It was so obvious the guy was forced to apologize with how reluctant Arnor was. She then glanced at Reinar who was still smiling at her, “I accept the apology. Do you need anything else?”

“Of course, but why don’t we talk it slowly, Lady Zhang. I have heard the Tang Empire’s situation is quite bad, do you need our assistance?” Reinar started to reveal his intention to meet Zhang Mengyao, “We can help you in this unfair war.”

Zhang Mengyao raised her right eyebrow, not expecting the opposite party to offer assistance. However, it did not take her too long to understand why The Giteron Dynasty offered her their help. The balance of the war was about to be broken when the other factions from Earth started to side with The Divine Church and the Federation of Allurion. That was something The Giteron Dynasty did not wish to happen. They reaped the most benefits from the war, and they wanted the war to continue.𝐧𝗈𝒱𝗲𝑙𝒏𝓮xt.𝓬𝒐𝐦

“Assistance, huh? What’s the Giteron Dynasty want in exchange for the assistance?” Zhang Mengyao wanted to turn down the offer right away. She knew there was an ulterior motive behind that tempting offer, but she wanted to dig into the real motive behind the offer. Knowing what the Giteron Dynasty wanted might be useful in the future.

“It’s not just assistance, we are willing to forge an alliance with The Tang Empire. What do you think, Lady Zhang? If we are in alliance, the Divine Church and the Federation of Allurion will cease their offense against The Tang Empire,” Reinar Thamsen did not say what the Giteron Dynasty did, keeping it in suspense.

“Hmmm, an interesting offer, but what do you gain from forming an alliance with us? I can’t think of anything that will benefit the Giteron Dynasty,” Zhang Mengyao maintained her polite smile.

“Of course, it’s to keep the balance in this city. If the Tang Empire falls in this war, the Divine Church and the Federation of Allurion will set their eyes on us. They want to monopolize the resources by themselves after getting rid of the Tang Empire, and the Giteron Dynasty is an obstacle for them. That’s why we propose the alliance,” Reinar Thamsen explained with a charming smile.

The Giteron Dynasty had the same reason as the First Order Guild, but there was no way she would believe them. That was just complete nonsense from a faction that conquered several worlds.

Zhang Mengyao had the urge to roll her eyes, a habit she developed with Tang Shaoyang. Tang Shaoyang often said some nonsense, and she would roll her eyes. However, she managed to hold back. It was so obvious for her to see the nonsense. There was no reason for The Divine Church and the Federation of Allurion to try to get rid of the Giteron Dynasty. From what Tang Shaoyang told her, these people were just the reserve force for their faction. The Dimensional Tower was their training ground to train their force.I think you should take a look at

“What we want is not a temporary alliance, but a long-lasting alliance and also an alliance with a strong foundation. That’s why I propose the marriage alliance between the Tang Empire and the Giteron Dynasty. That will mark the eternal alliance between the two factions!” Reinar Thamsen was so passionate about this marriage alliance, showing real emotion on his face for the first time.

Zhang Mengyao’s smile disappeared, replaced with a solemn expression. Deep inside, she was raging. She finally understood the Giteron Dynasty’s purpose. What they wanted was not an alliance, but the Tang Empire. The alliance was just nonsense. They wanted to put their person in the core of the Tang Empire and slowly took the Tang Empire from the inside. If Tang Shaoyang was truly no longer in this world and this man offered this nonsense marriage alliance, she would snap Reinar’s neck regardless of the consequence.

“We have two candidates for the marriage alliance, you can choose who you want to marry, Lady Zhang,” Reinar Thamsen continued, “The first candidate is myself, Reinar Thamsen. The second candidate will be Arnor Ollsen.”

The Giteron Dynasty must believe The Tang Empire was being cornered to believe the Tang Empire would accept the alliance. Then the Giteron Dynasty mistakenly assumed that Zhang Mengyao was the new leader of the Tang Empire. Zhang Mengyao clenched her palm into a fist. She had an urge to destroy the table in front of her to vent her anger. However, she controlled her anger, kept it inside her, and did not let the opposite party notice that.

Zhang Mengyao shook her head, “It’s unfortunate that our factions are not meant to form an alliance, Sir Thamsen. Also, it seems you are mistaken about my position. I am not the Empress of the Tang Empire. That position is still vacant and will be vacant until our son is ready to fill the vacant position.”

There was a slight change of expression on Reinar Thamsen’s face, but he kept his smile, “It’s indeed unfortunate. However, our offer for the alliance will be up for the Tang Empire. If you change your mind, you know where to find me.” Reinar Thamsen stood up from the chair, followed by the other three, “We will take our leave since I know you are busy.”

Reinar Thamsen and his group left the room. However, Zhang Mengyao remained in her seat even though the guests had left. She stayed there for over two minutes. When she got up, she slammed the table hard with her palm, breaking the table into two.

Bang!

“I want to hunt some monsters to vent my frustration. I want to hunt monsters!” Zhang Mengyao revealed her frustration and her anger.

Zhang Mengyao’s outburst shocked Marshal Alton, Kang Xue, and Cao Jingyi. They never saw this side of Zhang Mengyao. Even though The Supreme Commander was known for her strictness, no one would relate her to acts of violence like this. This was the first time she destroyed the table. She said nothing, heading out of the room.

Zhang Mengyao just opened the door, but then she halted her steps to go out, turning her head toward Marshal Alton, “What about a spar, Marshal Alton. I need to release some steam, and you might be one of the few who could survive my full power. I do really need to release my pent-up frustration before it gets into my head.”

“I will be glad to be your sparring partner, Lady Zhang,” Marshal Alton smiled.
