Chapter 2164 The Discussion Between Two Kings

After a brief walk, the two finally ascended to the top of the warship. Martin approached one of the

crates and retrieved a bottle of aged red wine. Levi's gaze fell upon the bottle, noticing deep imprints

on its surface which was a sign of its value.

"Come on, Levi. Let's indulge ourselves a little. This is a precious vintage that I seldom enjoy unless in

the company of someone special. Consider yourself fortunate," Martin declared, pouring the red wine

into two tall glasses.

"There's no need for the pretense now that we're alone," Levi bluntly exposed Martin's facade,

unmasking his feigned enthusiasm.

Martin smacked his lips in exasperation. "You truly know how to dampen the mood," he grumbled,

relinquishing his pretentious demeanor. Then, he took a seat on the sofa and raised the wine glass

toward the beak of his Phoenix. The bird took a brief sniff of the liquid and shook its head in

disapproval upon detecting the potent alcohol. It pecked at its owner's hair as it was dissatisfied with Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

the smell and flapped its wings before soaring up to the window ledge.

Levi praised wholeheartedly when he saw the Phoenix, "I never imagined you could raise the Green

Phoenix so splendidly. I still recall when I last saw it—it was merely an egg! Now, look at how

magnificent it has become." The Phoenix seemed to comprehend human speech, as it puffed its chest

proudly and lifted its sharp beak high upon hearing Levi's praise.

"Of course! You have no idea just what sorts of spiritual nourishment and medicinal fruits I've provided

for it," Martin replied in a voice filled with affection for his loyal companion.

"Speaking of which, what are your thoughts on this red wine?"

"It is truly exceptional."

With that, the conversation gradually shifted to the main topic at hand.

"Look, I'm certain you're aware of the ruckus you've stirred up with this banquet of yours. I'm concerned

that the headquarters may already have their radars trained on you," Levi cautioned, referring to the

Martial League headquarters.

Both Martin and Levi held positions as high-ranking members of the Martial League, as well as being

two of the Six Kings. Nevertheless, they seldom attended the League meetings unless they involved

significant matters concerning Cathay.

And now, not only was Levi attending the banquet, but Martin had also brought together almost all the

top forces from Emsgate. Given the notable guests and the attention drawn to Martin's banquet, it was

only natural that it would attract unwanted scrutiny. Regardless, Martin remained nonchalant about the

situation.

"It doesn't matter. Let them do as they please," he responded languidly.

"You're quite carefree. Aren't you concerned they might blow up your warship?" Levi jested.

Martin raised an eyebrow, finding the joke amusing.

"Well, it does sound like an intriguing idea. After all, as the King of the South, you could easily claim my

forces and gain control of Rivenia. You would be unrivaled in the world, being a King with two

territories."

Levi chuckled in response but was secretly pondering the feasibility of such a plan. As soon as he

realized the plan was absurd, he quickly dismissed it from his mind and changed the topic.

Levi offered his opinion after listening to Martin's tale, "You definitely have had one hell of luck to

stumble upon such a place. Now, tell me, what sacrifices did you make to bring back those treasures?"

He still had the ability to restrain his greed even as the allure of the gold mines and marine resources

tempted him. Indeed, money was important to him, but he would never risk his life for monetary gain.

At that moment, Martin's expression turned solemn as he responded with a serious tone, "I won't

deceive you. Seventy-five transport and salvage ships set sail for the location, but only nine managed

to return safely." Coոtent of Drąmanovеls.com
