Contract Signing
State your conditions.
Hearing Ymir utter such a bold statement, Rein knew that although the matter had not yet been accomplished, it was already three-tenths settled.
The words "Your Her Highness the Eldest Princess, I don't want to try anymore" almost slipped out of his mouth.
But,
With the added advantage of her status as a member of the Omar royal family, Ymir is no longer the wounded and helpless woman she once was on the wasteland; now, she is unparalleled and independent, making her unapproachable.
It was as if no man in the world could catch her eye.
Let go of those unrealistic ideas.
Rein said directly, "My Transcendent heritage came from that wreckage. If I find the subsequent potion formula and exclusive advanced knowledge, I must get my hands on it."
This is the most important factor in whether this deal can be reached, and he will absolutely not back down.
Ymir listened with an expression that remained completely calm, as if this was a perfectly acceptable condition. "Continue."
Seeing her expression, Rein continued, "Well, as for the other things in the wreckage, each of us can take what we need. I have the right to choose anything that is useful to my Transcendent cultivation and improvement. The finished products of the Mechanical City can be given to you completely, but I have the right to share the technology."
He didn't intend to ask for an exorbitant price. When negotiating with someone like Ymir, it's best to avoid any unnecessary probing or empty questions.
However, he didn't make any definitive statements, since he didn't know exactly what was on that Mechanical City.
However, Rein was also well aware that their goals were not in conflict at all.
Ymir values things that can improve a large team: mechanical technology, advanced knowledge, and high-level weapons. Ordinary treasures are simply beneath her notice; while Rein values things that improve his own strength.
Ymir showed no surprise at all when she heard Rein's terms.
After thinking for a moment, she asked, "How long has it been since the wreckage of that flying Mechanical City you mentioned crashed?"
Rein: "Within ten years."
Ymir: "Which type of Extraordinary Sequence did you advance to?"
Rein: "Battle Doctor Sequence".
Upon hearing this, Ymir raised her eyebrows slightly; this was a very unfamiliar sequence.
She then asked, "You survived being Throat Slash before because of the Transcendent abilities of this sequence?"
Rein: "Yes."
"Make a deal!"
That's the advantage of negotiating with someone like Ymir; she never beats around the bush, if it's possible, it's possible, and if it's not, she'll say so directly.
However, Rein did not expect her to be so efficient.
As soon as the word "deal" was uttered, Ymir sat down at the mahogany table and pulled a blank parchment from a drawer. With her slender hand, she took a quill from the table, dipped it in ink, and began to write something.
Ymir wrote, he added, "I'll announce to the public that you're one of my people soon. I'll also send a notice to the Oma Black Market, and no one should bother you anymore. After the notice, Sid's people will know that the item is in my hands, and they won't be chasing you anymore."
"Call"
Upon hearing this, Rein finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He wanted to complete this deal by transferring the risk of this "secret" to someone else. Before he could say it aloud, the clever Her Highness the Eldest Princess seemed to have already considered this and brought it up herself.
Choosing to work with her was definitely the right decision.
With the worry of being hunted gone, the feeling of "being plagued by misfortune" that had been lingering in Rein's mind finally disappeared. It was as if a hammer that had been breaking a boulder had fallen on his chest, and his breathing became much easier.
Ymir had beautiful handwriting; her characters were as delicate and clean as her facial features, graceful yet possessing a sharp, powerful edge.
The room was quiet, and the sound of the pen moving across the parchment was clearly audible, a soft, rustling sound that was quite pleasant to the ear.
As she finished speaking, she had already written several clauses on the blank contract.
When it came time to sign, she looked up at Rein again. "Do you have any additional conditions? If not, we can sign the contract."
"What you wrote is a transaction contract?"
Upon hearing this, Rein was stunned for a moment.
Upon closer inspection, the intricate magical patterns on the parchment clearly indicated that it was a contractual document bound by laws.
These high-level contracts are usually displayed in the most expensive section of a magic shop, but in this study, they look no different from ordinary letter paper.
Its royal heritage is truly extraordinary.
Since it was Magic Contract, Rein didn't dare to be careless and carefully examined its contents. It seemed to be the same as the terms of the deal he had mentioned before, with no hidden traps.
"Yes."
Ymir responded calmly, then quickly wrote his full name, "Ymir Spurglin," in the lower right corner of the contract and stamped it with his personal noble crest.
Then, she pushed the contract and quill forward, gesturing to Rein, "If you have any other terms, add them below; if not, just sign."
There was absolutely no beating around the bush; from the start of their conversation to the signing of the contract, it took less than ten minutes.
This demonstrates the Princess's decisive and efficient work style.
"Good"
Rein took the pen and read it again.
He never expected the negotiations to go so smoothly, and he had even prepared for some bargaining.
But to his surprise, just a few words were enough to reach a "big deal" that terrified him.
It seems the contract in my package is useless.
This was something he had prepared beforehand, intending to use it when he found out where the Princess was staying from the informant "Red Nose" Hook and then went to visit her.
Be a petty person first, then a gentleman. Only a contract can reassure people about such a large-scale cooperation.
He had just been pondering how to bring up the contract without seeming petty. Little did he expect that Ymir would have already drafted it.
Her style of doing things is just like her personality—indiscriminate and efficient.
"There's nothing wrong with the contract."
Rein thought for a moment and then went to sign his name.
But he didn't forget that Ilubeck had been captured.
So he added, "Your Her Highness the Eldest Princess, there's something else, unrelated to the transaction, but I hope you can do me a favor."
This is a very polite way of putting it, and it doesn't make people think that he's trying to raise the price.
Ymir: "Speak."
Rein said directly, "My teacher, Dr. Ilubeck Neto, has been captured by your Blackwater Platform. You are the Princess of the Oma Empire; if possible, I hope you can help me rescue him."
Ymir had expected Rein to make some kind of interest-related request, but she never expected it to be about saving people.
Moreover, it was someone she knew.
To determine if it was a case of the same name, she asked, "Dr. Ilubeck, formerly of the Oma Royal Medical Academy?"
Rein nodded. "Yes. He was my teacher, and he was kidnapped from the lab in District 5 yesterday."
After thinking for a moment, in order to provide more comprehensive information for the search, he recounted the general course of events.
"Head Transplantation Surgery," the threat from the Winst Family, and some traces of their actions.
After hearing the story, Ymir immediately confirmed that the people who made the arrests were definitely from their Omar intelligence agency, "Blackwater Platform"!
But she was more curious about something else.
After a moment's hesitation, she asked with slight surprise, "Ilubeck is your teacher?"
Grandfather?
Hearing this affectionate address, Rein knew that the Her Highness the Eldest Princess and Ilubeck seemed to have a good relationship.
Rein nodded. "Yes."
"."
Upon hearing this affirmative answer, Ymir's eyes gleamed with disbelief. She naturally knew everything about Ilubeck, and she knew his vow never to take on another disciple.
But what a coincidence that he ran into a guy who claimed to be his disciple?
If she hadn't known Rein before, her first reaction would have been that he was a fraud!
But now that Rein has brought up saving people, there's no doubt about it.
No wonder he was able to perform such extreme surgery as stitching himself up; it turns out he was a disciple of that top medical expert!
At this moment, the Her Highness the Eldest Princess's gaze fell once again on the wound on Rein's neck, as if deep in thought.
She felt that she could understand everything now.
Ymir's face showed a flash of surprise, which quickly disappeared before she calmly replied, "Leave Grandpa Ilubeck's matter to me. I will not let him get hurt."
The tone was confident, a confidence that came from Princess Oma!
When Rein heard this promise, he finally felt that all the burdens on his shoulders had been lifted.
Sure enough, when it comes to the "Blackwater Platform" matter, no one is as helpful as the person in front of you.
Without further hesitation, he picked up the quill pen and signed his name, "Rein Hermes," under the name "Ymir Spurglin" on the contract.
The magical patterns on the parchment glowed with a dark blue light, and the contract was formed.
