Egilina is a core member of the stargazing club and cannot be offended casually.
When Roland declared war, he had the idea of "we're all here, let's declare war together", and he just found some random reasons to declare the stargazing club.
At that time, he wished he could escape from the Baron of Münhausen as soon as possible. He was naturally unafraid of anyone who came.
But now it's different.
He didn't want to leave, he had changed his mind.
Having a good relationship with Egilina will at least make you one less enemy that you can't afford to offend.
The Star Gazing Club has only a small number of private armed forces, only [-] to [-] elite men. It is easy to deal with a few hundred Barons of Münhausen.
The three guests and guests had their own thoughts, and the meal was tasteless.
After finally waiting for Julie to put away the tableware, Roland and Egilina were a little impatient and said in unison:
"Miss Egilina, I have something to ask you for help."
"Mr. Roland, I have something to ask you for help."
After finishing speaking, the two of them were stunned at the same time. They were both a little embarrassed and made a gesture of invitation.
"You talk first."
"You talk first."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Melanis smiled and helped them out.
"Let the distinguished guest speak first."
"Okay, then I'm welcome. Mr. Roland, I would like to stay here for a while. Observing your fate is a test of my astrology."
"It's my pleasure."
Roland said with a smile, then coughed a little embarrassedly and explained: "About a month ago, there was a little misunderstanding between me and the stargazing club. Ahem, you know, there are not many literate people under my command. , these idiots actually sent a declaration of war to other forces to your association. I have absolutely no intention of being an enemy of the Star Gazing Association, and I would like to ask Miss Egilina to help me clarify."
"Made it wrong? I don't think so."
Egilina wanted to keep a straight face, but she couldn't help but laugh.
"Mr. Roland, do you know how much of a shock this declaration of war caused when it was delivered to the headquarters of the Stargazing Club?"
"Well, are you all laughing at me for overestimating my abilities?" Roland was very thick-skinned, so naturally he wouldn't be embarrassed about such a trivial matter.
Egilina slowly shook her head and said: "Of course not. Your little idea may be able to be hidden from others, but it certainly cannot be hidden from a star warlock who is proficient in stargazing."
"At that time, there were two star warlocks who had a heated argument and almost came to blows. However, they were so amused by your declaration of war that they realized how boring the argument was, so they ended the dispute."
"Is this a mistake that helped you?" Roland took the credit unceremoniously.
"So be it. At least the Star Warlocks won't punish you for your offense."
"Oh, how did you originally plan to punish me?" Roland was a little curious.
"It's nothing. We originally planned to establish a new barony on an uninhabited island three thousand miles away from the mainland in the Endless Ocean and transfer you there."
The Stargazing Society is a transnational organization that transcends countries and has territories in many countries. It is not easy to kill a little baron.
Roland's smile froze at the corner of his mouth.
It is indeed a stargazing party, quite ruthless.
As expected, it was still careless, and with a bit of the arrogance of a time traveler, it treated the aborigines as NPCs.
You must learn from it in the future and don’t look down on anyone.
Roland's expression changed slightly, he quickly regained his composure, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, thank you for not taking things seriously."
Egilina carefully observed Roland's expression and eyes, a little surprised.
In this situation, Roland was not ashamed or angry, and was even thinking seriously.
What is this guy's heart made of, so calm?
Although the combat power is not strong and the force is weak, the mentality of being unfazed by favor and humiliation is worthy of praise.
Some star warlocks are extremely powerful personally, but their mentality is as childish as a three-year-old child.
Given time, Roland will definitely achieve achievements that are beyond the reach of those arrogant guys.
Egilina was shocked by her judgment.
She thought mockingly to herself that if the teacher knew, he would probably laugh at her for not knowing people.
But her intuition told her that she was right.
A woman's sixth sense is a more profound existence than stargazing. Believe in yourself!
Egilina took a deep breath, looked slightly stern, and made a decision.
Stay and observe Roland carefully.
She had originally planned to win over Roland to join the stargazing club, but now that he seemed to be an unpopular person, she decided not to think about it.
No matter what, you must have a good relationship with him.
The earlier you invest in potential stocks, the better!
If you don't come to help me in times of need, who are you to be the icing on the cake?
The development and growth of the stargazing club is of course inseparable from one's own efforts, but repeated successful investments are also important.
Stargazing Club has made angel investments for two emperors and five kings, and there are countless dukes and marquises who have made successful investments.
Although I have encountered white-eyed wolves during the investment process, as long as one-third of people are willing to pay back, they will make money with blood.
Stargazers are the best at divination, and their investments are nothing short of cheating.
Roland and Egilina had a great conversation and soon reached an agreement on cooperation.
Egilina became a distinguished guest of the Barony of Münhausen and could freely enter and exit Roland's territory and castle.
In return, Egilina helped resolve the "misunderstanding" between the two parties and persuaded Star Gazer to invest in Roland.
This is a sure-fire investment!
The investment was rated S-level in the investigation report written by Egilina to the Stargazing Club.
A simple summary is one sentence: increase investment!
Chapter 8 Who Is The Clown?
When you declare war, no one in the world asks, but once you admit it, the whole world knows it.
He was so domineering when he declared war, but he is so embarrassed now.
Even Roland himself blushed when he wrote the letter begging for mercy.
The first reply came from Viscount Broome, and it was very quick.After all, they are not far apart and are good neighbors who never interact with each other until death.
The Viscount was very polite and said in his reply that he never took the declaration of war seriously.For Roland's offense, he had only one request, and that was permanent peace between the two parties.
The reply was very polite and summed up in one sentence.
Poor guy from Münhausen, please respect yourself from now on and don't mess with me.
Although his attitude is arrogant, Roland completely understands that as long as he doesn't invade our borders, nothing else matters.
Egilina read the Viscount's reply, and some of her shattered confidence recovered.
Her calculations were absolutely correct.
At Roland's suggestion, she divided the divination content into eleven parts and calculated them individually.
Calculating the attitudes of all enemies at once, touching too many branches of fate, causing backlash and vomiting blood, but no result yet.
But it's much easier to separate.
Just count Viscount Broome, that's easy.
Encouraged by her victory, she continued to calculate Earl Gruul's attitude. At the end of the calculation, her face looked a little ugly.
"Mr. Roland, Count Gruul is not very friendly to you. He will probably ask you to pay war reparations."
"How much compensation?" Roland's expression was very calm.
"Three thousand gold coins. This guy is so greedy. This money is even enough to hire a battalion-level mercenary team. I will write a letter now to let him choose unconditional peace. This bastard took our investment, and he dare not offend me! "
"It doesn't matter, just give him three thousand gold coins. Don't waste the favor."
Roland said with a smile: "For frontal resistance, at least one regiment-level mercenary must be hired, and the cost of gold coins must be tens of thousands. Although his asking price is high, it is not excessive. I must admit that this count's accountant is very good at calculating accounts."
"But..."
"Three thousand gold coins are left as a pretext for war. In a few years, it may be a county. It's a waste of money."
Egilina's eyes were a little complicated.
She understood what Roland meant.
If both sides make unconditional peace, they will not be able to declare war on each other for five years or even longer.
If he pays war reparations, Roland will be able to obtain the [Insulted Dignity] war excuse for five years.
In other words, Roland is confident that he can win the Earldom of Gruul within five years.
Although I don’t know where Roland got his confidence, this confidence infected Egilina.
She nodded, smiled and teased: "Well, three thousand gold coins are indeed not expensive. Now I am a little worried about Earl Gruul's future."
"Don't think so much. Just buying a reason for war may not be useful."
Many people were watching the Gracia family. They managed relationships, hired bodyguards, and paid tolls. These were all losses during the moving process. Most of the family property was lost, leaving only more than 7 gold coins.
If a large number of mercenaries were hired, Roland might not be able to withstand this wave.
But he doesn't want to break the bank.
Spend more than 1 gold coins to hire mercenaries to fight a draw, or spend [-] gold coins to give in and leave a pretext for war.
Roland chose the latter.
In the next few days, the busy messengers almost crossed the threshold of Baron Münhausen.
Most of the forces that were declared war did not take the Clown Baron seriously.
They just asked Roland to respect himself and promise not to harass them again.
Some people said very unpleasant things and even extorted money, but Roland accepted them all with a smile.
He was the one who took the initiative to provoke, and he was the one who said he had misunderstood afterwards. Why not let others make some weird remarks and claim compensation?
Egilina is very accurate in calculating the attitudes of these forces.
The confident astrologer lady began the final calculation.
They are the Stargazing Club and the Kingdom of Lower Sarsen.
She knew her attitude towards the stargazing party, so she skipped the deduction and entered the final stage.
After some intense calculations and several damaged dice and cards, Egilina came to a conclusion.
"Mr. Roland, I'm sorry, it's bad news."
"The King of Lower Sarsen has decided to use your blood to warn those who offend him that he will not accept your surrender and only wants your head. He will send [-] elite soldiers to attack in three directions."
Egilina sighed: "If you want to crush the enemy's attack, you need at least [-], no, [-] gold coins..."
"Seventy thousand gold coins?"
Roland's expression was calm, as if what he was about to lose was not [-] gold coins, but seven dollars. He asked softly: "Is there no room for maneuver on this matter?"
"Of course you can mediate, but you have to invite empire-level forces, and the price is very high." Egilina said helplessly.
Empire level?
That is the three major empires and several major divine courts. Other forces cannot persuade the furious King Geralt at all.
Although there were some things that she shouldn't say, Egilina couldn't help but complain: "Mr. Roland, your previous decision was a bit reckless."
"Are you reckless? This is how the former Baron Münhausen came ashore, and he even declared war on the Holy Essen Empire!"
Roland shrugged and said disapprovingly.
Egilina reminded: "Your father was originally the baron of Lanza, the trading city of the Essen Empire. Have you ever thought about why Baron Münhausen was transferred to where?"
