Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 784: Chapter 513: Ariel Watson’s Loyalty_1

“Simple conditions?”

With a puzzled look, Ariel Watson took a step closer to Leo Ray, anxiously asking, “What are the conditions?”

“Naturally, it is to submit to me and become a part of my territory.”

Leo Ray calmly looked into Ariel’s eyes as he spoke.

“What?!”

Ariel’s delicate face suddenly revealed a mixture of surprise and resistance.

Unconsciously taking a step back, she said, “But I am the pinnacle of power in this land, the Fifth Princess of the Coldflame Royal Family…”

“That’s understandable,”

Looking at Ariel’s flustered demeanor, Leo Ray maintained his composed expression and continued, “So, tell me, dear Fifth Princess, do you think you could have achieved those ideals without my intervention?”

There was a hint of fierceness in Leo Ray’s eyes as he leisurely continued, “Furthermore, considering the current internal and external threats, do you think your proud royal family will continue to exist if the Coldflame Kingdom collapses?”

At this moment, Leo Ray understood clearly.

Although Ariel’s expression suggested resistance, it was not due to her dwindling arrogance or willfulness. It did not stem from distrust or disbelief in him, but rather from sheer bewilderment and astonishment alone.

On the other hand, after uttering several “buts,” Ariel seemed to recall something, hurriedly adding, “Even if I do agree, the two Kingdom Generals beside me and Linda of the Sanders Family will not agree!”

Finishing her sentence, Ariel’s eyes shifted back and forth between the three, asking, “Don’t you all agree…?”

However, before she could finish, Burt and Joshua, who stood behind her, had already stepped forward. They bowed their heads to Leo Ray and silently took their respective positions on his left and right sides.

Linda, standing beside them, also followed suit without hesitation.

“Mr. Bert and Miss Joshua? Linda, even you…?”

Witnessing this scene, Ariel’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to trust what she was seeing.

At this point, the situation had become apparent.

“Dear Fifth Princess, do you still have any concerns?”

Leo Ray smiled faintly at Ariel and continued to speak softly.

Lowering her head in hesitation for a moment, Ariel’s eyes gradually showed determination.

She raised her head once more, gripping her fist tightly as she looked straight at Leo Ray, “Visitor from another world, are you truly willing to help me?”

“Absolutely.”

Leo Ray stared into Ariel’s eyes, giving her a firm and decisive answer.

“Understood…”

Ariel relaxed her clenched, pale fist, and hesitated no more.

She then knelt on one knee, bowing her once proud head to Leo Ray, “Your subordinate, Ariel Ward, swears loyalty to you, my Lord!”

“Very well, dear Fifth Princess, let us begin signing the contract.”

Pleased, Leo Ray nodded, and with a thought, a Tier 3 Recruitment Order appeared in the palm of his hand, shimmering with a silvery metallic sheen.

Following that, a golden contract appeared before Ariel. She bit her finger without hesitation and firmly pressed it down onto the parchment.

Soon after, the familiar prompt sounded in Leo Ray’s ear.

[Congratulations! Tier 3 Nine-Star Light Mage, Ariel Ward, has signed a Master-Servant contract with you and has become your new subordinate!]

Hearing this, Leo Ray bent down, gently helping Ariel up, while opening her attribute panel.

[Name: Ariel]

[Occupation: Light Mage]

[Level: Tier 3 Nine-Star]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Skill 1: Streamlight Arrow ‘Active’ (A single-target, light-attribute magic attack with piercing effect, exceptionally effective against dark targets)]

[Skill 2: Aurora Shining ‘Active’ (A multi-target, light-attribute magic attack with blinding effect, exceptionally effective against dark targets)]

[Skill 3: Radiant Holy Mark ‘Active’ (A light-attribute detection spell, capable of discovering hidden treasures, magical mechanisms, and secret magical chambers)]

[Skill 4: Light Magic Mastery ‘Passive’ (Significantly increases damage when using light-attribute magic)]

“Not bad, not bad, I’ve finally managed to bring this proud Princess of Coldflame under my command!”

Closing Ariel’s attribute panel, Leo Ray couldn’t help but let a smile of joy spread across his face, as he cheered in his heart.

With this, his control over the entire Coldflame Kingdom had undoubtedly taken an epic step forward!

On the other side, seeing this scene, the subordinates couldn’t help but become overjoyed.

Being able to make the princess of a significant kingdom yield, their Lord was indeed extraordinary!

“With Ariel, the Fifth Princess of Coldflame and a legitimate heir, assisting me, I’ll be able to quickly bring the entire Coldflame into my sphere of influence!”

Overjoyed, Leo Ray fell into deep thought.

His next course of action could be divided into two main parts.
