This greedy woman!
Donovan forced an ugly smile on his face. "I accept your terms, Your Majesty. If His Majesty disagrees, I will beg him if necessary."
Although giving in to her demands would nearly drain them of their resources, it was better than having Astania take their lands.
"Good. I will send five hundred thousand warriors to Harune, including three Venerables. That should be enough to defeat the Astanian army and retake the cities they captured." The empress stated calmly.
Donovan grimaced.
So stingy! She asked to double the tribute I offered and even wanted three cities to be given to Veronica, but all she could send was just this?
He wanted to tell her to add more troops, but he felt that it would only displease the empress. He could only swallow the words he was about to say.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. We will never forget this favor." Donovan did a fist-palm salute.
