Chapter 56

John asked the people in the room, "I would like to hear the opinions from you guys . As I have very little information on him I would like to hear suggestions from you guys . "

On hearing the name of Prince Lukav many of them showed annoyed expressions, some showed disdain, some showed curious expressions while some showed an understanding expression on how they knew something .


Eva and Sally were the ones who furrowed their eyebrows first and showed annoyed expressions . It was because both Eva and Sally had seen and heard a lot of rumors about Prince Lukav . They had even seen his cruelty first-hand at the imperial city . To many people, Prince Lukav seemed like someone who was always provoking the commoners as well as the nobles . He didn't spare anyone and mocked them about their hypocrisy . A lot of people tried making moves on him because of his provocative behavior but many paid painful prices for their actions . Even her own mother feared him because of his insanity .

Having experienced and seen a lot of things it was Tornwall who suggested first to the whole group, "I feel we should treat them with reciprocity as they don't mean any ill-will to us for now . Plus as you might all know his behavior so we wouldn't want to be on bad terms with him so it is best we keep a neutral position .

I think its mostly because he noticed us and thought of using us to piss on people he doesn't like so they don't approach us and he may be intentionally challenging them to the fact he can bow down and greet an upstart while they can sit up on their high horse and act all mighty . Meanwhile, it is also to gauge our reactions regarding his goodwill . The most important thing is if we are on bad terms with him we won't get anything but one more enemy while Imperial nobles would think it was only natural for us to be on bad terms with him .

However, If we keep a neutral position on him it won't affect our positions on both sides . People would only think that we are cautious and smart . "

Meanwhile, Eva with an angry face thought, "God, why do we attract all those crazy guys in this barren border town . I hope we can pass this storm if we face one because of him . "

and Sally thought, "What is doing here, is he here to create another incident here . "

Eva this time raised an opinion, " I know one thing sure, if we antagonize his men on our first meeting then I am sure he will hold on this grudge on us for a long time, However that guy is dangerous as an ally well . Many of his allies have faced the burnt because of his insane actions in the past . However, I still hope we keep some distance with him . "

Meanwhile, Gordon cautiously them, "Would it be good? I mean all of you have heard of his rumors, right? plus we would be facing a beast invasion this year, don't you think some nobles would use this pretext to attack us . "

John considered all of their opinions and made a decision finally, "Okay we will conclude our meeting for today now and I have decided that we won't be on bad terms with him for now . we can judge him later on . You guys can get back to your work while I meet him . Jake, you can remain here since your training will start today . "

Hearing that everyone set off to prepare and fulfill their duties . For many, this was the first time they were handling these sorts of jobs and it will be up to John to guide them so that they can help him later on .


Meanwhile, in this meeting, John focused on teaching everyone in the town because he hoped that this city transcends from a labor-oriented work to multiple fields as it will help everyone later on . He also planned to make dramas and musical instruments from earth as well as Sarah's world which would enhance the culture of the town, however on this path he would be facing many unknown hurdles .
