The living sculpture resembling Kallanorsaka strongly opposed.
Even the other monsters and creatures that resembled knights felt as if their honor had been disgraced and were displeased.
The Intimacy will drop considerably when one’s pride is broken, and they may proclaim independence and leave.
Furthermore, the Lich’s appearance was making it worse.
Of course, Weed’s treatment of the living sculptures was poor, but it was all part of a plan.
“Do you know that the Versailles continent is a very beautiful and fun place to live in? You guys are all like my children. Needless to say if you guys were to fight for me and die in battle, it would devastate me. I will do anything in order to protect you. If it is for you guys, even being a Lich is fine.”
The mind of a parent worrying about their child!
“This is a battle that I have to take responsibility for. So please watch the battle from afar.”
“I don’t think so. I still want to participate in the battle.”
The creatures with ferocious nature insisted that they want to fight in the battle, even after I gave them an explanation.
It’s difficult, but once they are tamed they will become pure and faithful.
Yellowy and the Golden bird thought.
“Now, he is going to beat them!”
“He will probably take them separately to someplace quiet to handle it!”
But Weed tried again to explain to the living sculptures in a calm voice, just like an affectionate mother blissfully asking her child who had just passed the medical school what he wants for breakfast as a token of appreciation for her child's achievement.
“I want to build houses, make clothes, and even make delicious food for you guys. But no matter what our destiny is, we should try to stay happily together for a long time.”
“I still want to fight.”
“Yes, yes. There will be lots of opportunities to fight in a battle later on. When the time comes, I will lead the vanguard into the battle.”
“You promise?”
“Sure. For now you guys relax and eat the delicious food, but if you want to fight in the battle, I will let you fight once we reach the shore. I'm your parent. But for now let me take care of things, I am doing this for you. Oh, you don’t think of me as someone who just thinks of money all the time, right?.”
“Of course not.”
The living sculptures were greatly impressed that Weed cared so much for them.
“Ah. We are blessed with a good master.”
Once the intimacy rose, the sculptures stopped opposing Weed.
When there are only few sculptures, it’s easier to handle them by casually blackmailing through violence.
However, when there are many living sculptures, it becomes difficult to deal with it in the same way, they should be pampered by showing respect and appreciation.
This is a talent acquired by honing and sharpening his skills as a hypocrite!
Even though it was a sudden transformation, it was neither awkward nor sloppy.
Weed’s sudden attitude change was meticulously planned and prepared in advance.
Even Seo Yoon fell for his act.
“We are so happy to have such a good father.”
Weed spoke to them with a slight touch of modesty.
"So are you two hoping for something? I am not going to start appreciating you. I just did that so those guys will willingly do what I say. You don’t want to know what I am expecting in return from them for this.”
Yellowy and the Golden bird felt like hurling with disgust.
There are chances that the sculptures may die if they try to go into close combat during a naval warfare.
“Over the next 20 years they will be making me fortunes. I can’t let them die here.”
If the ship sinks, then all the sculptures who can’t swim may die by drowning and it would become an unfortunate event!
Furthermore, sculptures of life had an enormous power that is able to shift the current flow of the battle. In truth, there are also dangerous risks to showing them off here at this place!
Other than the sculptures of life that could fly through the air and swim through the water, the rest were immediately ordered to leave the battlefield.
After the living sculptures left, Weed turned his attention back to the battlefield, where Drinpelt’s fleet was completely entangled with the Ghost Ship fleet.
The Ghost Ships sank every time there was an artillery fire.
At the sea no matter where one looks, there was a blazing fire rising above with the deafening roar of the artillery fire exploding mercilessly on them.
