Diana maintained her loftiness as it was important to maintain a noble demeanor in front of other people and waited for them to speak first . Vlad understood the situation and hence he decided to speak first on everyone’s behalf .

Vlad invited both John and Joseph as said with a smiling face "as you might know Miss Diana is the only daughter of Duke Bluesea of the Fire Abyss Kingdom . We had a proposal which could benefit both the parties plus young miss was very interested in having a conversation with you, So what do you think?"

This time John said, "It won’t harm to listen to his proposal first and then decide later, what do you think Joseph?"

"Sounds good, I don’t have problems with it" Joseph looked deeply at Vlad and answered John .

This time Diana decided to talk, "Well your soaps are quite well made and very popular, so I was very much interested in it after using it for the first time so then I had decided to go to Aelius Kingdom and meet the one who made it, luckily we chanced upon you and Joseph . So would you be interested in being the sole provider of these soaps to Fire Abyss kingdom via us?"

"Of course we will compensate you guys with gold coins and other means, so what do you think?" Diana smiled and said to them while drinking her tea .

"Wait, first let me ask him a few questions" Joseph suddenly said to Diana and pointed to Vlad .

Vlad expected as much from Joseph and immediately agreed to Joseph’s suggestion .

"But you will only get to ask one confidential question and you can’t ask anything related to Bluesea family . You see I can’t go on spilling secrets everywhere . "

Joseph thought for a while and understood that Vlad wanted to contain as much information as possible but he still agreed since he got to ask one question he wanted to ask for a long time .

Joseph thought for a while and asked his question,

"Why were you hired by my family last time you came to our Mansion?"

Vlad smiled cunningly and answered Joseph,

"Your Grandfather hired us for an assassination of someone who was bothering your family . "

"So whom did you guys assassinate?" Joseph asked .

"Sorry this is the second question which I can’t answer so can we get ready for other business?" Vlad had a smile of a sadist where it seemed that Joseph just got played in the palm of his hands .

As soon as he heard the answer he understood that he got played by Vlad . He had an angry look on his face but he more cursed his own naivety as he had asked his question eagerly and thought Vlad would at least answer everything on this subject .

Meanwhile, Diana and her maid Maurice saw the show which happened in front of them . They were quite used to these scenes already as they had seen this type of scene playing a lot of times in the mansion or outside their mansion .

Diana had a serious face while Maurice was giggling . Diana didn’t laugh as it would be rude to their guests and she also remembered her own embarrassing conversations with Vlad which had her angry .

John also saw this play out from the sidelines and understood the sort of person Vlad was .

"Sorry for the previous disturbance, let’s get to business first . We can have that conversation later as well . " Diana said to Joseph and John while she glared at Vlad who then got behind Diana and started preparing other documents as if it didn’t matter to him, in the first place he never wanted to spill confidential contracts he made in past .

"Its Okay, it was own my personal business so Vlad was not obligated and there might be some contract conditions which both sides had to adhere which I didn’t consider" Joseph calmly answered Diana .

Joseph anyways cleared the possibility that Vlad might have come for protection purposes last time around and it was assassination which he received .

"So How many Soaps can you guys provide us?" Diana got straight to the point .

"Well, it depends on your number . Since we have already acquired the required man force we can make soaps in bulk from now on . " This time it was John who answered her question .

Diana just wanted to probe them and understood that they had enough man force for large scale production of those soaps .

"We would require 100,000 Soaps Half-monthly and it will mostly increase based on the demand in the kingdom since these soaps are already popular in Aelius and I think it would be the same in Fire Abyss Kingdom . "

Vlad then came close to Diana and said in her ears .

"We can also give you guys intelligence support from Domestic as well as International enemies as proposed by Vlad"

Diana said to both of them after listening to Vlad’s suggestion .

Vlad then gave one of the documents from his hands to Joseph as their proof of sincerity, after looking at the document Joseph understood how his information got disclosed while they were delivering the soaps this time around . It turns out it was one of his elder brothers who leaked their information and why their fleet almost got attacked . He also understood how Vlad came to the conclusion that John was the soap maker this time around .

Vlad meanwhile said to both of them with a curious smile "Both of you kids should be more careful from now, these soaps will bring a lot of change this time around"

"Just a word of advice, one of your brothers contacted a duke from your kingdom and they might target your soaps and it is not the one who leaked your information . "

Vlad usually wouldn’t give free advice but both Diana and he had taken an interest in both of them and he hoped they could further this relation with them which would be better for future relationships between the two parties and he also felt good about them, unlike the other people whom he usually met . His instincts told him that this relation would help the Bluesea family later on and so he decided to reveal a lot of cards . Additionally, he was very curious about John as he didn’t have any killing intent or blood from his aura but he still had those good senses just like a predator so he thought it was because of his natural talent .

John gave it a thought and decided against increasing the prices of his soap after he saw the abilities of Vlad and his men in information collection .
