Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 408



[Chapter 408: Supergirl chooses combat talent]

The choice David gave had a lot of room for maneuver. If he was lucky, he could be exempted from several years of imprisonment. No matter how he looked at it, he would not lose out.

More importantly, he could leave Winter City and return to the continent of Faerun. Then…

“Oh, to avoid your unrealistic expectations, I think Kira should stay in Winter City.”

Edkin’s face changed immediately. He had been smiling and not serious before, but now he became a standard cold-faced old father.

David ignored Edkin’s face. He knew that his words would cause dissatisfaction on the other side, but facing such a bard with a flexible moral bottom line, he would really run away if he didn’t add some shackles to him.

“Kira is not young anymore. Don’t you think it’s a bad thing that she follows you around to steal, rob, and cheat all day long?” David poured himself another glass of juice, picked up a strawberry and took a bite: “Not only does she not have a stable living environment, but she has also missed the most suitable period for education.”

David’s words made Edkin’s face even uglier.

How could he not know these things? As a father, would he want to see his daughter follow him around to commit crimes every day? Even join in and grow up to be a female thief in the future?

Edkin wants to make a fortune in Winter City. In the final analysis, he hopes to provide his daughter with a stable living environment so that his daughter can learn those serious knowledge according to her preferences. No matter what profession she will be in the future, it will definitely be better than being a thief.

Therefore, even if he knew that David detained Kira in order to indirectly control himself, he had to admit that David’s words made sense.

“How are you going to place Kira?”

As soon as Edkin said this, Kira and Holger beside him looked at him with shocked expressions. The two couldn’t believe it. Is Edkin really going to agree to the other party’s request?

Originally thought that Edkin was deliberately delaying or fooling the young king in front of him, as soon as he left Winter City and returned to the continent of Faerun, everyone immediately ran away. They felt that the people of Winter City would definitely not be able to find them in a strange world.

Besides, it was a problem whether the other party could go to the continent of Faerun.

The two did not know that David had already had the ability to freely travel to other worlds. Edkin guessed this through various information collected.

However, according to his original idea, the continent of Faerun is so vast that he can escape to Karatu, Maztec and other places if things don’t

work out. Now it seems that these ideas are useless. If he reaches an agreement with the king in front of him, he can continue to live and adventure in the continent of Faerun.

Of course, the premise is that Kira’s life can be guaranteed.

“She will live in Winter City and enter the Winter Academy to learn all kinds of knowledge like ordinary Winter City children.”

“Not locked in a cell?”

“I won’t do that. That will only make you try every means to rescue your daughter instead of helping me collect valuable things seriously.”

David directly pointed out this point. He believed that when facing smart people, he could just put the interests out directly without repeated testing.

Moreover, when Edkin saw that his daughter could live a stable and happy life in Winter City, and could also receive education and grow into an outstanding person, would he still want to take his daughter away? If

Kira didn’t leave, Edkin would have to stay in Winter City for a long time. If they wanted to live in Winter City, they had to make money.

So, what is a better job than working for His Majesty the King?

Leaving Kira behind actually means leaving Edkin behind, and with it the adventure team in front of him. David can continue to obtain rare items on the continent of Faerun through this team.

This is a pure conspiracy. David doesn’t care that Edkin can guess his thoughts. Anyway, he can’t refuse.

As a father who wants to be responsible for his daughter, this is his “weakness” that he can never make up for.

Sure enough, after thinking for a few seconds, Edkin agreed to David’s conditions: he accepted David’s employment and returned to Faerun to collect various valuable things for Winter City.

In order to avoid “random pricing” from Winter City, Edkin will learn more about the city in Winter City during this period, find out what types of items Winter City lacks, and then set off.

At the same time, he also wants to see how Winter City will settle his daughter Kira. Only when his daughter’s life is sufficiently guaranteed will he start working.

Otherwise, he would rather go to prison and stay there for a few years.

Edkin would never have thought that even if he wanted to serve his sentence obediently, David would use the reason that “Kira is still a child” to give him some special treatment.

When Edkin is released from prison after serving his three-year sentence, he will find that his daughter has already received three years of education in Winter City. If Kira shows some talent, she may have already started to learn some mysterious knowledge. At

that time, will Edkin let his daughter give up her “bright” future and follow him back to continue to be a thief?

It can be said that from the moment he stretched out his evil hand to Winter City, he completely lost the initiative; if he was like other visitors from other worlds, first met David, registered his personal information, and became a law-abiding civilian in Winter City, then he would have more options.

At least if Edkin really wanted to leave Winter City, he would not face such an embarrassing situation.

“Shirley will take you and your companions to register your personal information and arrange a temporary residence for you.” While David was speaking, Shirley opened the door and walked in: “By the way, Shirley is also Kira’s temporary guardian in Winter City. You have no objection to this, right?”

“No, this arrangement is very good.” Because he had met Shirley and knew that Shirley was a kind girl, Edkin was very satisfied with the arrangement that Kira was handed over to Shirley for care.

Moreover, Shirley and Sansa had a good relationship, and Sansa and Kira were about the same age. It was a happy thing to be able to let his daughter have a playmate of similar age.

Judging from David’s arrangement, the other party showed “very sincere”, and Edkin began to think seriously, what rare things could make Winter City satisfied?

In fact, David did think of one thing at this time, and he was very interested in the resurrection card that appeared in the plot.

He wanted to build a super-large resurrection stone tablet in Winter City by studying this prop, and then bind all the active soldiers in Winter City to it, so that the combat power of Winter City could surge again.

This “unconventional” method is certainly not for dealing with other human kingdoms, but for making plans for the future.

After finishing the second glass of juice, Edkin and his companions had already left.

David stood up and prepared to leave. As soon as he walked out of the living room, he found Kara still waiting here.

“You didn’t leave with Edkin?”

“Didn’t Shirley take care of Edkin’s affairs?”

If Kara hadn’t participated in the operation to capture Edkin, she wouldn’t have paid attention to this group of people.

But it was precisely because Kara participated in the capture and knew some of the “inside stories”, and Kira was still a child, that Kara reminded David whether to decide how to deal with this group of thieves as soon as possible?

But before that, Kara didn’t know David’s thoughts. She was still very happy that David was willing to give these people a chance to “reform”.

In particular, David’s arrangement for Kira fully demonstrated the kindness of His Majesty the King of the Winter Kingdom.

“I’m going to the military camp next. Do you have anything to do?”

“Military camp… The army is about to march south?”

“Yes.”

Kara didn’t like war, but she understood that the next war was inevitable.

Seeing that Kara’s mood had suddenly dropped from a high point, David could only comfort her: “Only by truly eliminating those forces can the various races on the Brunnia continent usher in a truly stable, peaceful, and happy life.”

Otherwise, all the races on the Brunnia continent are pawns of those so-called gods-now it seems that these so-called gods are just powerful life forms in the universe.

I wonder if these guys are Titans like me? Or some kind of high-level life that specifically fights against Titans? Or something else?

After leaving the police station building, David took out his Mustang sports car, and Kara sat directly in the co-pilot seat.

“You’re right, only by completely eliminating those guys can we get real stability and peace.”

Compared with Kara in most universes, this Kara’s personality is relatively more vigorous, and after deciding to take action, she will not entangle those messy things.

“Do you think I should seriously learn some combat knowledge? And follow the army southward to gain some practical experience?”

“There is no way to gain any practical experience by following the army southward.” The Winter Army is absolutely crushing the human countries on the Brunnia continent.

If Kara goes with them, the crush will be even more thorough. What experience can she gain in this situation? If

she really wants to improve her combat ability, Kara should stay in Winter City and practice with Clark, Zod, Fiora or herself, and bask in the sun more in her free time, so that she can truly improve her combat effectiveness.

But in this case, is Kara preparing to concentrate on military combat?

This is quite rare. Are there super girls who specialize in military and combat in the multiverse?

It seems that super girls and Superman are all types with unlimited possibilities and then fully developed-although they are often abused in various plots.

Thinking of this, David suddenly became very curious. How strong can a super girl who seriously learns how to fight become? After training, can she beat Clark violently?

“This is a topic worth serious exploration.”
