Chapter 1749 Hye's True Ambitious Plan
Day passed, two passed, and yet Hye didn't move. "Ask him why he wasn't attacked yet?" On the third day, and just two days away from him, Major felt real nervousness.
He knew Hye aimed to take down the hostile fleet from the other universe, but for the first time ever he thought about another possibility.
He was an outsider to Hye! He didn't have any connection or ties with that human, and it looked as if Hye intended to take him down using another's hands.
Hye already pinned Major in his place using the hostile other universe's fleet here. And now he was bringing another one, much bigger and with lots of huge and deadly ships in, to meet him.
If he didn't worry, then he'd be a fool! And so he wanted to see what William had in mind, before deciding if he should run away, or try to curry favour with him.
"Boss… He has a message for you," and as Major feared, Hye's answer to his men wasn't clear. Instead, he wanted to deliver a message to him.
"Let him tell you the message, and deliver it over…" Major knew by doing so, he'd expose the ongoing connection between him and his men all this time. And yet he wouldn't risk his life just to keep such a thing secret.
"Boss, he already told us the message, asked us to deliver it over," many said, before adding in a slightly hesitant tone, "he says a wise man selects the best shore to board at, before even setting sail."
"This human…" Major went speechless for a few seconds, before smiling, "Tell him that I chose his shore to board my ship at."
He already planned to join hands with Hye. So making this move right now or later didn't differ.
"He sent a contract over, and wants you to sign it," one of his men said, before sending one contract over.
"I'm going to be part of his kingdom? Work for him and not ever do anything against his kingdom's or his interest? Hmm… Tell him my story then… Let him know about where I came from, why we went there, and what our true goal is…"
Major didn't reject signing such a contract, but he wanted to be crystal clear about where his allegiance truly fell. He was serving his people, and Hye had to understand this.
"Boss, he sent another contract, saying that he made a few changes in it…"
Major received a new contract, and when he read it, he couldn't help but freeze in place.
"Does he want my people to join his kingdom?!!!" he slowly muttered in immense shock. But as the connection with his men over there at Hye's fleet was open, they heard what he said.
"Boss… He says you have no choice here. It's either you fall and the end of your short-term legacy, your people's hope, will get extinguished, or you dare to risk it with him, and aim to build a grand empire in the universe…"
The men spoke, said what Hye said and they didn't get it first. But when they heard their boss' words, they guessed much of the content of that contract.
"This is a huge decision…" Major was a promising star in his people, but he wasn't the leader, "Let him give me two days, I need to consult with my people…"
"He said he'll give us until we arrive at your place," his men responded, "he said he'll take the enemies down when he arrives there, and you need to decide if you will stand by his side by then or fall on the enemies hands before he'd take them down."
"That bastard…" Major knew that Hye was forcing his hands here, "fine, I'll consult with our people and let him know the answer."
"One more thing boss," another man of his said, "he mentioned something about a promise he left in the contract, one that he highly recommends you to get a look at."
"A promise?" Major acted exactly like Hye expected, fumed into a rage, and frowned the moment he read the part of his people joining his kingdom. Hye expected Major to miss reading the rest of the contract, where he placed some sort of a promise, one that'd be protected by the system.
"Hmm… He promises that if he doesn't treat my people well, the contract will be revoked. If he doesn't manage to build an empire in five years, the contract is revoked. If he didn't level up the overall ranking of the empire to be one of the strongest ten all over the universe in twenty years, then the contract would be revoked… Interesting promises, bald and crazy, yet he let the system guard them…"
He knew Hye wasn't a fool to miss that point. This was a system-powered official contract, one that was powered and protected by the system. If he didn't fulfill these claims, then the system would revoke the contract on its own.
"I'll get back to him in less than two days," Seeing this part put Major's flames of rage from earlier down. He knew it was crazy to ask his people to join a twenty year old force, one that was built by a human on top of that.
And yet he also knew his people struggled for too long, and he was their only hope, one who was the only one to appear in the past few centuries, or even a few thousand years.
With these promises, it meant his people wouldn't suffer any loss. If Hye made the impossible and created a name for himself like he stated in the contract, then it'd be like them joining one of the big ten forces in the universe.
To his people, this might be a dream, but no force wanted to accept such losers in everyone's eyes. Without having good potential, they were worth nothing.
And in case Hye didn't manage to do the impossible, then they'd not lose anything.
