Chapter 523 - 'Xocolet Lake In Crimson Lily Region'
For a week straight, Ainsley didn’t leave the mansion and took her rest properly.
historical
In addition, she discussed with Zev, Cellino, and the Godfather about which territories they should snatch.
[Aside from xxroid valley, there’s a little lake inside the Crimson Lily region. The lake is called Xocolet Lake.]
[Xocolet Lake?] Ainsley tilted her head. [What a weird name...what is so good about it?]
[Well, the lake has magical water that can stimulate children to awaken their hidden special abilities.]
Zev pointed at the lake surrounded by dangerous flora inside Crimson Lily Region that rarely had human occupants.
[This lake is ownerless, and not many families tried to occupy it. The government also leaves the lake alone...]
[But why is that so? If the lake can stimulate children’s potential to be Ability Users, many forces will rush to occupy this Xocolet Lake, right?]
Ainsley tilted her head as she looked at the map. The lake was quite hidden inside the Crimson Lily forest, but there didn’t seem to be much danger...
At Ainsley’s words, Zev shook his head. [Remember, the Crimson Lily region is close to xxroid Valley. The Roid valley has many monsters and beasts...]
Zev paused before tugging the corner of his lips.
[Don’t you think that the Crimson Lily Region also has tons of monsters and beasts? Not to mention they’re all at least high-level monsters or beasts on par with high-level monsters!]
Ainsley almost fell from the bed right away.
[What?? Is it that dangerous? No wonder no one tried to occupy the lake...it is just too risky.]
To occupy the lake, one had to build a mansion near the lake and stationed people there.
Whoever who could do that when they’re surrounded by TONS of high-level monsters and beasts?
Just to occupy the lake that didn’t give 100% chance to awaken one’s special ability, they had to fight against monsters and beasts all-day long...
That’s absurd.
[Also, there are many beasts on par with a sacred beast there. They’re all wild sacred beasts...so it’s hard even to approach the region.] Zev added.
[Ugh, Zev...] Ainsley kneaded her eyebrows and glared at Zev.
[If this territory is that dangerous, why should we include it into the list of valuable territories that we will conquer??]
Even if Ainsley could charm monsters and beasts, it’s hard to charm high-level monsters and beasts without lowering their luck level.
The process took too much energy that Ainsley might have to endanger her health again.
Ainsley didn’t believe that they should take Xocolet Lake no matter how good the lake water was. However, Zev had a different opinion.
[Well, others might not be able to build a mansion around the lake and occupy the area...but you can.]
[How? Charming all the monsters and beasts around? Remember, I have to continuously charm them. It’s impossible– ]
[No, no, you don’t need to. In this case, you should try negotiating with them!] Zev winked at Ainsley before pointing at himself.
[You remember your side skill ’Lingua Franca’, right? Use that skill to talk to the beasts and monsters there.]
[...can monsters even reason with humans? Unless they’re charmed, they will be hostile...]
[Just put Zilla in front of them before you subdue them. Remember, monsters have a tight hierarchy between them.]
Zev wiggled his fat fingers in front of Ainsley’s face.
[The monsters will unknowingly fear you as long as you have a stronger monster with you!]
[Ah...that makes sense.] Ainsley started to see the light in the plan...and it didn’t seem to be too impossible.
[Also, you can use the Xocolet Lake area to be the headquarter of your irregular tamers guild!]
[My guild...headquarter base?]
[Yes! Not only the guild members can practice charming monsters or beasts, but the monsters and beasts will also become your natural shield against other forces.]
Zev rubbed his hands happily as he circled Ainsley’s head.
[Remember, enchanters like you guys can charm tons of monsters and beasts all at once, but the beast tamers and monster tamers can’t.]
Zev grinned from ear to ear while continuing his speech.
[Thus, even monster tamers and beast tamers have to be careful when visiting Crimson Lily Region or try to visit the Xocolet Lake!]
[Ah...so if we can collaborate with the monsters and beasts there, they can also become our guardians...]
[Correct! Not to mention that you can bribe the monster tamer and beast tamer guilds by exporting monsters or beasts that they need. Of course, only if the beasts and monsters agree.]
Ainsley and Zev had made an agreement to only sell monsters or beasts to people that they deem to be worthy.
Sometimes, there were many people who abuse their contracted monsters or beasts, especially monsters, since they couldn’t break the contract, unlike beasts.
Thus, Ainsley had planned to select her customer in the future. Her irregular tamer guild would also apply the same rule when doing business.
[You’re close with Bern from the beast tamer guild and Benjamin from the monster tamer guild, right? Those two are nice. You can leave the monsters and beasts welfare to them.]
[Hum, you’re right. Overall, this plan sounds plausible...should we visit Xocolet Lake first or the Roid Valley?]
Ainsley finally agreed to occupy Xocolet Lake and made the lake into her family’s property.
After all, even the government couldn’t manage that place, so if she could, it would be something amazing!
[For starters, we should wage war with other families to snatch their territories first. Only attack the troops stationed at the territories...if you aren’t afraid of offending the family, though.]
Zev shrugged as he gave Ainsley more list of valuable territories.
They already aimed for two valuable territories and needed two more!
