Chapter 284 Mr. Elhesen, you don't want Kavi...
It was already afternoon when Bai Mu arrived at Sumeru City.
He parted ways with Tinali temporarily at the gates of Sumeru.
Tinali needed to inform Elhesen first, while Shiraki noticed someone was waiting for him.
"Was Nasida's matter resolved so quickly?"
Bai Mu walked up to the Great Compassion Tree King and asked in surprise.
"No, the situation in Sumeru is rather complicated and cannot be resolved simply by force."
"I only helped her obtain the highest level of access to the Void Terminal; the rest is up to her to handle."
The Great Compassion Tree King looked very unhappy; the current situation of Sumeru made her extremely angry.
She wished she could just kill all those people from the Order of the Church, but that would inevitably make the situation in Sumeru even more chaotic, so she didn't act rashly.
"Don't worry, there are actually some advantages to Sumeru's current situation."
"What's the benefit?"
The Great Compassion Tree King raised its head, its expression a mixture of confusion and surprise.
"The situation is as bad as it can get."
Shiraki pinched the cheek of the Great Tree King and said with a smile.
"Uh..."
The Great Compassion Tree King turned and left.
It's almost dark now, and the situation in Xumi is quite complicated. It's not safe to walk at night, so she needs to find a hotel to spend the night.
......
After parting ways with the Great Tree King, Shiro wandered around Sumeru City for a few hours and quickly found the location of Tina.
"Dong dong."
Shiraki stood in front of the door and knocked.
After waiting for about half a minute, the door was opened.
A tall figure appeared at the doorway, looking at the extraordinary young man in front of him with suspicion.
"you are?"
"Yes, Mr. Bai. This is the person I just told you about."
Tina followed behind Elhesen and, upon seeing that the person who had arrived was Shiraki, gave Elhesen a reminder.
"Oh, please come in then."
Elhesen nodded politely and then invited Shiraki into the house.
Although Tinari had told Elhesen about some things concerning the White Wood, he hadn't gone into too much detail.
He simply explained Shiraki's identity and conveyed Shiraki's desire to meet Elhesen.
There wasn't time to say much more about the others.
The three sat down at a tea table. Shiraki sized up the scribe of the Order of the Instruction and spoke first:
“Mr. Elhesen, Tinari must have told you about me, right?”
"Hmm, may I ask what brings you to me?"
El-Hysen nodded; Tinari had indeed told him about Shiraki's identity.
Elhesen was also very curious as to why this foreign deity had come to find him.
"Now that you know my identity, things are simple."
Shiraki picked up the tea set on the coffee table and took a small sip.
"I want you to become the Great Sage of Mount Sumeru."
Alhaysen:?
He frowned subconsciously, wondering if he had misheard.
If he heard correctly, then the "foreign god" that Tinari was referring to had lost his mind.
After all, no one with a sound mind would go to another country and ask its leaders to do such a thing.
"I'm sorry, I didn't explain your identity to Elhesen."
Seeing the puzzled look on her friend's face, Tina smiled sheepishly at Shiraki.
"I see. Then let me introduce myself first."
Shiraki put down his teacup and then stood up.
"I am... never mind, it's not important."
“I made a pact with your local grass goddess, Buyer, to help her find a capable person, and you are that capable person.”
While this reason may sound somewhat far-fetched, it is at least reasonable considering Shiraki's identity.
However, Elhesen had no desire to be that arduous and exhausting great sage, so he directly shook his head and refused.
“I’m sorry, sir, I am merely a scribe in the Order of the Church and am not qualified to serve as a Great Sage.”
"However, my friend is also a capable person; you can let him give it a try."
Given Al-Hysen's personality—he'd leave work as soon as he finished—it would be impossible for him to become a great sage.
But after rejecting Shiraki, Elhesen didn't forget to trick his good friend who had brought Shiraki there.
"Ugh, why are you like this?"
Tina stared wide-eyed at Elhesen. Although his face was sullen, he was not worried at all.
Because he had rejected Bai Mu when he was in Huacheng Guo, and Bai Mu had no intention of bringing it up again afterward.
Shiraki had anticipated that Elhesen would refuse, and he had come up with a plan to deal with it.
"Mr. Elhesen, that architect named Kavi must be your close friend, right?"
What do you want to do to him?
"He has nothing to do with this, please don't hurt him."
Upon hearing the name "Kavi," Elhesen frowned and immediately stood up from his seat.
He doesn't yet understand Bai Mu's personality, so he's worried that Bai Mu might take his anger out on Kavi, causing Kavi some unbearable harm.
"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person you think I am."
Shiraki waved his hand, signaling Elhesen to calm down.
“If you are not willing to become a great sage, I have another plan.”
Bai Mu took out a green chess piece and used his power to activate the power of the Grass God within it, causing the two Sumeru people present to feel a sense of worship towards the chess piece.
“I intend to make your friend, Kavi, the new ruler of Sumeru.”
"And you will assist him as a great sage."
"Don't doubt what I'm saying, Mr. Elhesen, I have the ability."
Shiraki looked at Elhesen calmly.
Suddenly, he burst out laughing for no apparent reason.
"Mr. Elhesen, what do you think your life will be like if your friend became a god of Mount Sumeru and your boss?"
Hearing Bai Muna's threat, which was arguably the most effective one he could come up with, Elhesen fell silent.
He knew his best friend's personality well. If that guy really became the Grass God, he, the "Great Sage," probably wouldn't have a single day of peace.
Although Elhesen didn't believe that even if he refused, Shiraki would really make Kavi the new god of Sumeru.
But now that Bai Mu has already offered up the Heart of the Grass God, Elhesen can no longer refuse.
After all, even gods need to save face.
“Alright, I am willing to become a great sage.”
El-Hysen took a deep breath, a serious expression on his face.
"Yes, I am very optimistic about you."
Shiraki put away the Heart of God, patted Elhesen on the shoulder, and then gave him a task.
"Since you are willing to become a great sage."
"Then your first task is to eliminate Hazar and rightfully become the Great Sage of Mount Sumeru."
Alhaysen:?
What happened to the promise that I would become a great sage? Why do I have to fight for this position myself after I agreed to it?
