章節 739: Grand Talks

( In the royal garden , inner district, Purplehaze city) 

Rudra and Cervantez took a stroll in the royal gardens of Purplehaze city as the two tier 5 overlords discussed about the future of the continent.

Cervantez asked tactfully " So , do you still feel like your kingdom is a integral part of the Hazelgroove Empire? " 

The underlying meaning beneath this question was that was Rudra going to continue being a vassal state or was he going to rebel and fight for Independence? 

In reality Rudra was only a vassal in name as the True Elites Kingdom was only paying an annual tribute of 250,000 gold to the empire and had complete autonomy regarding defense and policy making , with the only military obligation being to lend 20% of all standing forces in times of emergency.
