Chapter 350: Chapter 220: Tulip Kingdom Shaken, Family Development (Part 2)

Of course, regardless of their feelings.

Upon arriving at Dressrosa Town.

Without any hesitation, these Knight Orders submitted their greeting cards to Count Engel.

Count Engel did not refuse these meetings and received them one by one.

In contrast to his firmness with the Spencer Family, towards these visiting families, Count Engel was exceedingly friendly, regardless of their intentions.

Particularly the Pat Family.

He even stated that the Dressrosa Family would temporarily not disrupt the respective interests in the Frost Moon Province.

This made the core descendant of the Pat Family who came sigh in relief. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The oppressive atmosphere for the other families completely dissipated.

The families demanding compensation immediately agreed without hesitation to send the gold coins without delay, citing only a minor delay during their journey.

To this, Count Engel smilingly agreed.

Whether their gold coins were delayed or not prepared at all initially, he didn’t care.

Having been a count for decades, Count Engel knew that although the Dressrosa Family’s power had indeed been enhanced through him, overall it was still at the level of a Count’s Clan.

Expanding would currently be unwise.

He needed more time.

The family also needed more time.

Given the circumstances, it was better to maintain the status quo for now.

As long as they could gain a foothold in Qinghai Lake and secure the compensation gold, Dressrosa would not lack gold coins in the short term.

As Count Engel was handling these matters,

the news spread like a whirlwind.

Zaparov Spencer came to Dressrosa looking for trouble but was easily defeated and captured by Count Engel.

This news stirred not just the entire Frost Moon Province but the entire Tulip Kingdom.

Pat City.

"What?"

"Count Engel made a breakthrough?"

Marquis Pat stood up abruptly, his complexion changing dramatically.

"Yes, Lord Count Engel indeed made a breakthrough. Lord Zaparov fought with Count Engel at the Dressrosa Family, and in the end, Lord Zaparov was defeated."

"Lord Sad has already gone to visit Count Engel, and sent me back to report."

The knight spoke respectfully.

The confirmation left Marquis Pat unsettled.

Just then, the door opened, and a figure walked in.

"Grandfather!"

Seeing the visitor, Marquis Pat hurriedly spoke respectfully.

"Unexpectedly, the Dressrosa Family has indeed produced an eagle. Today you shall go there; Dressrosa Family can take an additional twenty percent share of the Sahara Mine. Our Pat Family will concede eight percent, and another five percent will be extracted from the Emerson Family and others among the ten Count Families."

The old man spoke in a deep voice.

"This!"

Hearing his grandfather’s words, Marquis Pat’s complexion changed dramatically.

The Sahara Mine, even though their share was only thirty percent, giving away eight percent is nearly a quarter, not to mention the Dressrosa Family already had twelve percent. Adding twenty percent would bring it to thirty-two percent, making them the largest shareholder in the Sahara Mine in one go.

"Do as I say!"

"Even if you don’t give it, the Dressrosa Family will eventually obtain it, and even more."

The old man scoffed.

As a Sky Knight, he comprehended the significance of just having broken through and already defeating an established Mid-stage Sky Knight such as Zaparov Spencer.

Particularly, Count Engel is still considered in his prime age for a knight, having the opportunity to reach Sky Knight Peak.

It can be expected that the kingdom will inevitably give some support to Count Engel,

Even if he doesn’t give these away now, it would later be extracted anyway, so he advises decisiveness.

"Yes!"

Marquis Pat, though conflicted, promptly agreed to his grandfather’s words.

"By the way, to that Ruby Dressrosa, you can tell him that the Pat Family can grant him freedom anytime. If he is willing, we can send him to the Northern Territory."

Seemingly recalling something, Marquis Pat spoke once more.

"Alright!"

This time, Marquis Pat was decisive.

Although Ruby Dressrosa possesses immense talent, even though he initially promised him the opportunity to gain merit in a Kingdom War, it was initially just a promise. Whether to really give it, he was still pondering.

But with the Dressrosa Family’s substantial rise in strength, fulfilling the promise ahead of time was not much of an issue.

"Go, don’t forget to prepare a generous gift, and proceed to congratulate Count Engel for his breakthrough to a Sky Knight."

The old man nodded before speaking again.

"Yes!"

Marquis Pat replied.

And at the moment, it was not only the Pat Family reacting.

Each powerful noble undoubtedly received the news at this moment.

When the message first came, their initial reaction was disbelief.

How was it possible?

Even if Count Engel became a Sky Knight, how could he be a match for Zaparov Spencer, who was at the Mid-stage Sky Knight level?

But soon, with more messages coming in, they had no choice but to accept the information.

The powerful nobles who were previously unprepared for compensation gold began their preparations.

Even those who had prepared gold coins were getting ready with generous gifts.

Count Engel suddenly became the talk of the entire kingdom.

Even within the Three Great Duke Families, there were those who noticed this piece of news.

After all, even among Duke Families, there were not many Sky Knights, let alone someone who just broke through yet triumphs over a Mid-stage Sky Knight.

Nanyue Province.

Liepuer Clan.

"A breakthrough indeed, in fifty years, he is the first from a Count’s Clan to become a Sky Knight."

"Joseph, prepare a gift to convey my congratulations!"

Duke Liepuer spoke with a smile, instructing the young man beside him.

"Yes, Father!"

The young man respectfully responded.

"Also, prepare diligently between now and then, strive to reach an Earth Knight before you turn sixty. As for the ruins site, you may gain a spot, missing this chance might further reduce your probability of becoming a Sky Knight."

As if recalling something, Duke Liepuer spoke again.

"Thank you, Father, I understand."

The young man nodded, a little excited.

Even within a Duke Family, the probability of becoming a Sky Knight is not very high.

This opportunity from his father made his heart leap with excitement.

"Alright, off you go. Get this matter done well."

Duke Liepuer nodded and then paid no further attention.

In the Tulip Kingdom, the same went for the Three Great Dukes.

They each sent representatives to the Dressrosa Family.

But compared to them, the Spencer Family found it utterly unacceptable.

This news was akin to a meteor crashing into the entire family.
