Immediately, Lis instructed Evar and then proceeded directly to Danerluo Port with Ivor.
Ivor also instructed the manager of the dock to properly host the "Hurricane," after which he led Lis towards the city.
Soon, the trio arrived inside a luxurious estate, and Lis glanced around to find that this place was no less impressive than the noble estates of Bright City.
Indeed, it was Danerluo Port, and as one of the city's main figures, the two had indeed reaped considerable benefits.
"Mr. Lis, please have a seat."
Ivor personally ushered Lis to the guest room, sat him on the sofa, and gestured for a maid to bring steaming hot coffee and delicate pastries.
"Mr. Lis, may I know if there is anything else you are here for in Danerluo Port?"
Lis smiled and relaxed into the sofa.
Frankly, after drifting at sea for so long, the solid feeling of standing on the ground was truly satisfactory.
"Of course, there is also something I would like to discuss with both of you."
Lis nodded, set down his coffee cup and said with a smile:
"I heard that the Boditch Kingdom is at war with the Feis Kingdom, and the situation in Luminous Stone City isn't looking good?"
"Ah... indeed, that's the case."
Ivor almost didn't react, then suddenly switched to this topic.
However, Ivor did not conceal anything; to Lis, also a Gold Rank, this information was not confidential.
Moreover, anyone with clear eyes could see that the Boditch Kingdom was driven to desperate straits by the significant mobilization of the Boditch Navy, with almost no chance of turning the situation around.
Ivor and Grace were also secretly planning to leave the Boditch Kingdom before the arrival of the bad news.
For this reason, they had already repeatedly refused the conscription commands from the Boditch Royal Family.
Both he and Grace were direct Gold-level descendants trained by the Royal Family, and even they were unwilling to comply with the commands, which shows to what extent the Royal Family's authority had declined.
"Then let me introduce myself first."
Lis looked towards them, the smile on his face deepening.
"I am the captain of the 'Eagle'..."
Ivor and Grace nodded, as the de facto controllers of Danerluo Port, they naturally collected all kinds of information about the Pearl Sea, aware of this peculiar pirate ship that had appeared several months ago.
It had been hunting pirates while also "amicably collecting" fees from passing merchant ships, self-proclaimed as "pirates" by a group of people.
But it was surprising that their captain turned out to be a Gold-level Mage who had also successfully killed Patrick and taken the "Hurricane."
Ivor saw a new power rising on the Pearl Sea.
However, that wasn't a big deal; pirates who lasted ten years on the Pearl Sea like the "Blood Shark" were rare, most pirates disappeared after a few years or even months, whether due to retirement or being killed by others remained unknown.
"Apart from that, I also hold the title of Marquis Kane from the Feis Kingdom."
Ivor and Grace exchanged glances, their expressions grave.
The Feis Kingdom was Boditch Kingdom's enemy!
Why would a Marquis appear here?
Felling the atmosphere in the room suddenly become serious, Lis nonchalantly waved his hand.
"What, are you going to capture me and send me to Luminous Stone City?"
"...Of course not, you jest, Mr. Lis."
Ivor said cautiously, utterly puzzled as to why a noble from the Feis Kingdom would come here, and why had he been loitering on the Pearl Sea for so long?
This was a Great Noble, whose status could easily be verified, no one would foolishly impersonate someone else, especially not a Gold-level powerhouse?
Both Ivor and Grace, as Gold-level professionals directly loyal to the Boditch Royal Family, naturally also held titles, though they were merely Barons for now.
"Of course there is something!"
The corners of Lis's mouth curved slightly, carrying a hint of confidence.
"I'll get straight to the point."
"Gentlemen, would you be interested in working for me?"
