Chapter 495: Chapter 369: Recognition (Part 2)

Then wouldn’t she have to accept more bows from others?

But the real hero was the Golden Silkworm King; she was just helping out.

She glanced guiltily at the Golden Silkworm King sitting opposite her, elegantly eating.

While eating, he poked at the bowl of braised pork with his chopsticks, his golden eyes looking at her, clearly expressing, “My accomplishments have been credited to you by your father.”

“Ahem…”

Luna quickly withdrew her gaze, awkwardly coughing twice.

Then she looked at everyone present, and her voice resonated throughout the hall, clear and pleasant: “Everyone, the prescription was painstakingly developed by the Golden Silkworm King, and the Holy Water is also formed from his source power. I merely acted as a gofer.”

After speaking, she solemnly bowed towards the Golden Silkworm King, “The debt of saving lives in The Lower Domain must be attributed to the Golden Silkworm King.”

Although reluctant to part with the faith value, she couldn’t take credit from him.

The Golden Silkworm King paused his holding of the chopsticks, and the little grievance in his eyes instantly disappeared, his lips curving into a modest smile: “Ahem, Luna, you exaggerate. I… it was just a small effort.”

The hall fell silent for a moment, then it burst into applause and cheers.

“The Golden Silkworm King is noble.”

“Miss Sutton is impressive too; without her, the Golden Silkworm King wouldn’t have come here.”

“The Wolf Tribe is righteous, Chief Sutton is blessed with such a daughter, truly a blessing for us Beastmen.”

…

Praise filled the room, overwhelming Luna with embarrassment, she could only respond with a smile, her cheeks growing stiff from smiling.

However, she breathed a sigh of relief inside.

Fortunately, these Beastmen were sensible and weren’t swayed by her father’s words.

The system notification sounded in her mind again, but this time, the increase in faith value was noticeably slower.

Clearly, although the Beastmen appreciated her, they were more grateful to the Golden Silkworm King.

She didn’t mind this, though faith value is important, she felt at ease in her heart.

The feast continued, growing ever more lively.

The Old Priest from the Deer Tribe shakily stood up, his cloudy old eyes looking towards Luna, speaking somewhat nervously: “Miss Sutton, this old one has a presumptuous request…”

Luna immediately looked at him, smiling in response, “Old Priest, you can speak freely, if it is within my ability, I will certainly help.”

Embarrassed, the Old Priest rubbed his beard, “Well… Miss Sutton, could you share the recipe for that braised pork? I am getting on in years, my teeth aren’t good, I can’t chew roasted meat and can only eat the tender parts.”

She laughed at his words, this was no matter at all, and was just about to agree.

When Soren Phoenix abruptly snapped open his fire-red feather fan, covering half his face, winking at her, “Luna, that’s your secret recipe.”

“It’s fine.”

She smiled at everyone, “If anyone is interested in learning, you can send the females of your tribes to our Wolf Tribe in a few days. Our females all know how to make these dishes.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire hall erupted.

Grayson, leader of the Raging Lion Tribe, stood up excitedly: “Really?”

“Of course.”

Luna replied with a faint smile, “If you want to learn building houses, we can teach you that as well, but snow season is approaching, it might be too late now, we’d have to wait until next spring…”

“Building houses?”

Titus, leader of the Leopard Tribe, hurried over, extremely excited, “You’re willing to teach us how to build houses? But we don’t have the kind of blue bricks you do, nor do we know how to make them.”

“That’s alright. When spring arrives, you can trade us animal hides or prey in exchange, just make sure to determine the quantities needed before snow season, so we can transport them to you come spring.”

She had thought this through, not only could she trade with the major tribes, but she could also sell blue bricks to tribes across The Lower Domain.

This was an exclusive business.

In the future, even if the Wolf Tribe didn’t hunt, they’d have meat to eat and hides to use.

It could even drive economic development on the Beast World Continent, with beautiful and exquisite green brick villas, cool in summer and warm in winter, who among the Beastmen wouldn’t want one?

Of course, the price of green bricks mustn’t be too high, within what these tribe leaders can accept.

Upon her words, the whole banquet hall erupted in exclamations.

“Really, we can use prey to exchange for blue bricks?”

“What about trading for a hoe?”

“And this pottery…”

The leaders of the major tribes were flushed with excitement, eager to finalize the deal immediately.

Lyle Sutton saw this, hurriedly standing up to maintain order: “Please, calm down. We can discuss the specifics of the trade later. For now, everyone has traveled far, let’s eat and drink to our fill first.”

He gave Corbin Crowley a meaningful look.

Corbin understood, stood up, and clapped his hands.

Soon, beastmen came forward carrying dozens of daggers, gifting one to each tribe leader as a token of appreciation.

All the tribe leaders gratefully accepted the daggers, lovingly caressing them, their expressions filled with excitement.

These were iron tools a hundred times sharper than bone knives, a rarity on the Beast World Continent.

“These gifts are too precious…”

Leon Hawke, leader of The Eagle Tribe, carefully wrapped his dagger in animal hide, afraid of losing it.

Lyle Sutton laughed heartily: “Just a small gift, no need for formality. When spring arrives, whatever iron tools you need, you can trade prey for them.”

At his words, the eyes of the tribe leaders brightened.

They were fretting over how to request iron tools, not expecting Lyle Sutton to propose it himself.

The banquet continued until sunset.

The leaders of the major tribes left satisfied, with the gifts bestowed by the Wolf Tribe.

……

Aetheria, The Dragon Clan territory.

Horace Valerius stood on the palace terrace, overlooking the mist-covered mountains below.

He had just listened to the report from The Black-armored Guard about the plague in The Lower Domain, his expression complex.

“You’re saying that the imposter… Luna Sutton found the Golden Silkworm King, thus resolving the plague?”

Horace Valerius frowning slightly, his slender fingers gently tapping the railing beside him, his thoughts unknown.

The Black-armored Guard knelt on one knee, respectfully answering: “Yes, Clan Leader. Allegedly, the Golden Silkworm King was initially unwilling to help, it was Miss Sutton’s tireless persuasion that convinced him.”

Horace Valerius’s expression was complicated: “I underestimated her.”

He had always looked down on this imposter, even hearing she had laid two dragon eggs didn’t change his view.

Unexpectedly…

“Have the two dragon eggs hatched?”

He suddenly asked.

The Black-armored Guard respectfully replied: “They have hatched, one golden and one azure young dragon. The golden one is named Aurelius Valerius, and the azure one is named Sol Valerius, both males.”

“Aurelius Valerius… Sol Valerius…”

Horace Valerius murmured the names, his cold face unusually showing a hint of softness.

After a long silence, he waved his hand: “Select some gifts from the treasury, send them to The Lower Domain.”

“Say…”

He paused, “She worked hard.”

The Black-armored Guard was shocked, then smiled with understanding: “I’ll see to it immediately.”

This was the first time the clan leader acknowledged this “imposter” from The Lower Domain.

If the Young Master knew, he would surely be very happy.
