In the main meeting room, 9 people sat on luxurious chairs, all of them varying from different races, species and skin color. But the atmosphere of the room was tranquil despite the top and mighty figures sharing the same room. 

Normally, people of this caliber would only gather together when a celebration or gathering of top clans and the top 1% of the empire had a reason to get together. 

"So what do you think, mister Kahn? Are you interested?" asked Triss, the redhead witch. 

"About that.. May I ask why are you interested in doing business with our company? I'm pretty sure there are plenty of bigger companies & given the kind of supply your clans would need.. I'm afraid we're not that capable as of yet." said Kahn. 

For a company that was established in a single district, the offer didn't make sense. Because these clans would need weapons & arms for more than 80 million soldiers. And his company's current output was 30 million at best. 

"We're well informed about your current capacity and know that you are centralized in Rukon District only. So we have some propositions." said the white wolfkin. 

"What we propose is that you do these deals exclusively only to us and clans of our faction only. In return, we will also make rules that we shall only use your services as far as certain weaponry and tools are concerned. And you give our deals and contracts the first priority. 

And if there are any orders for customized weapons and armors, we're to be put above others. How does that sound?" asked the Elven saint. 

At this moment, instead of getting overwhelmed or feeling greedy, Kahn had a calm aura around him and spoke. 

"I think I have a better alternative. How about I give all of you a 30% discount on selling cost on top of the conditions you mentioned?" 

Gasp! 

All the saints, who were the top leaders of their respective clans and organizations were surprised. Because if you looked at the grand picture.. This 30% discount could save them hundreds of millions in cost on top of the 50% they were already saving by dealing with The Bloodborne company instead of trading with their usual partners. 

"But I have some conditions as well." spoke Kahn with a slight grin on his face. 

"Do tell. I believe we can work things out if you stick to your words." said the Lionkin as he folded his arms and looked at Kahn with curiosity. 

"In exchange for these exorbitant discounts.. What I want is all your clans becoming my shield and my sword." said Kahn as he interlocked his fingers and folded his legs, sitting as the main boss in a political party's meeting. 

"What do you mean?" asked Zolton, the Dwarven saint. 

"What I mean is I need all of your clans and organizations to work as the ones in charge of my company's security, let it be my stores, my warehouses, transportations, shipments and any properties that are in the company's name." said Kahn in a calm tone. 

"What?! What do you take us for? Do we look like some kind of mercenaries to you?!" exclaimed the thrall saint. 

"Hear me out, sir Dandelion. This isn't like what you think. 

Currently, I have limited properties and spaces where I can do the production. If our deals are contracted, I would naturally have to expand my company and open more facilities, have more warehouses, stores and buildings for management to meet the demand. 

And one of the important parts of it would be the security. Instead of hiring some unreliable organization and weaklings who are only there to fill up numbers without having actual combat experience or skillets.. I'd rather prefer to trust an ally than a hired help. 

I want your trained fighters and strong warriors in charge of my defense and security. 

Naturally, I would station and distribute your forces on my own accords. 

This way, you spend less, provide some help in let's say, a few hundred thousands of soldiers combined from all of your clans and save plenty of money in the process." declared Kahn. 

Sigh! 

"Aren't you afraid that one day, we might as well take over your business by force then? I'm sure that you're not a fool who is not informed about the consequences of leaving your fate in someone's hands." said Emyhr, the elven saint in a direct tone, not hiding his concerns. 

Kahn nodded and replied in a stern tone. 

"Let's say that all of you do plan to gang up on me and do think about doing what you say.. The key is the Grandmaster Blacksmith, sir Albestros Winston. Without him, there is no Bloodborne company. 

And if you try to force him into working for you.. Just one word of it and others who are looking for big opportunities and have the same amount of manpower as you would gather and oppress your clans under the pretense of justice. 

Besides, you may not know this but I'm a close friend of Szayel and Lord Ismatrazel also has a favorable impression of me. After all.. 

He did want me to become his disciple." 

Shock! Gasp! 

All the saints present were surprised and caught off guard as soon as Kahn revealed the last part. 

[This kid isn't simple. He's too calculative and mature for his age.] spoke the elf to all the other saints us a telepathic transmission artifact. 

[No wonder Lord Ismatrazel told us to work with him… wait! Now that I think about it.. He..] said Triss. 

[Yes. Lord Ismatrazel sent us here to become his shield. He knew we would have no choice but to become his backers one way or another even if the kid didn't say so himself.] replied the thrall. 

[Don't miss the last part! If even Lord Ismatrazel wants the human kid to become his disciple.. Then think about the potential this boy has. Maybe in five decades.. He could even become stronger than any of us. 

Just him being a semi-saint at this age without the backing or resources of any big clan or a faction already speaks about him being a once in a millennia prodigy. 

I'm afraid his talent even exceeds the Raven Sorceress of the Neutral Faction who is of the same age as him. No wonder the Vandereich clan wants him on their side. 

He could also become one of our top powerhouses in the future if he joins the Pureblood Faction.] spoke the wolfkin. 

[Yes! Let's not waste time, agree to his conditions quickly.] said the Lionkin telepathically. 

"We agree!" declared Emyhr. 

"Good. This meets the Shield part of our deal.." 

Kahn took a pause and gave a slight grin and continued in a merry voice. 

"Let's et's talk about the Sword."
