Nuclear Dragon

Chapter 75: The Soderbergs

”Hey! Kinda missed you too!” Nefiro smiled back.

The laws of the kingdom clearly state that the classes were divided into four:

Lower-class slaves need to kneel when they encounter royalty.

Middle-class commoners need to kneel on one knee when they meet the royal family.

The upper-class rich merchants and nobles just salute.

The uppermost royal family meets each other and say hello.

The people present here are Andre, who belongs to the kingdom’s well-known wealthy merchants, and Nefiro, who is known to be the kingdom’s outstanding talent, with the status of the upper class.

The rest of the people are only middle-class, at the princess’ presence, they naturally have to kneel down on one knee.

With the appearance of the first person kneeling, there was soon a whole wave of people doing the same thing.

But there are two people in the crowd who represent an exception: Shillong and Arman. The two have been calmly watching this whole event.

Of course, neither did Andre and Nefiro actually salute, but these two are at least known. So, the princess behind the knights did not have a problem with them. However, Shillong and Arman are foreigners… yet they haven’t even bothered to salute?  

Too pretentious, right?

The young knight captain who had been following the princess, aged around thirty, looked at the two with great displeasure.

Including the other knights, everyone looked at the two yong dragons with unhappy gazes.

But they all restrained themselves, they all know that here there is no place for them to speak up against this.

On the other hand, Arman didn’t restrain himself. The looks of these guys irritated him. So, he frowned and said disdainfully, “Hey! What are you guys looking at me like that for? Bastards! I don’t owe you guys any gold coins!”

”Hm?” The princess, who was talking to Nefiro, turned her head in surprise and looked at Arman, then asked her knights, “What’s wrong with you guys?”

”Your Highness! This elf and dragonborn are so rude! They didn’t even salute you!” The 30-years old young knight said.

”You bastard! You call that rude? I’m telling you I’m a true ………….”

Before Arman could finish his words, Shillong next to him punched on the head.

”A true what?”

”It’s …… A true elf! I am a noble elf! How could I possibly salute a human? This is a joke!” Arman covered his head and immediately reacted.

What a joke? They are dragons!

Although they are righteous metal dragons, they still have the arrogance that dragons should have. How does one expect them to bow down to humans?

That is not possible!

Equal treatment is their greatest gift to mankind, isn’t it?

For this, Shillong has the same belief. Since his reincarnation as a dragon state with unmatched power, the fact that he did not adopt the personality of the five-colored dragons and submitted to his desires proves that he has a good self-control!

He can apologize to humans for doing something wrong, but will never bow down to humans because of the boring laws they created!

”Arrogant! He’s really too arrogant!” The young knight was so angry that he turned to Andre and said, “Mr. Andre! I see they are with you! They should be your men, right? Shouldn’t you teach the two little ones what etiquette is?”

Andre didn’t care about the other party’s questioning, he just smiled lightly and said, “Sorry, these two are not common people, their last name is Soderberg!”

”Soderberg!???”

Everyone was astonished, including Her Highness the Seventh Princess who was still holding Nefiro’s hand. She turned her head and carefully looked up at Shillong and Arman.

There was not a single person present who did not know what the surname Soderberg meant!

Soderberg Chamber of Commerce! One of the big chambers of commerce in the Starland Kingdom, controlling the biggest share of the new entertainment industry, the movie industry!

Countless commoners’ dream is to be noticed by the Soderberg Chamber of Commerce, becoming the protagonist of a movie, and from then on step into a rich life, earning hundred gold coins a year.

Everyone is familiar with the name Soderberg.

Andre is the president of Soderberg, this is the consensus of the people of the entire Starland Kingdom!

But now this consensus was broken by Andre himself!

It turns out that the Soderberg Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Soderberg family!

This elf in front of them, a descendant member of the Soderberg family!

Is Andre just a part-time worker?

The crowd’s gaze on the three people suddenly changed.

A group of commoners kneeled on one knee, staring at Shillong and Arman with looks of amazement.

At this time, if one of the two dragons opened his mouth and said, “My shoes are dirty.”

These groups of licking dogs would come directly to stick out their tongues and lick them carefully!

Even the knight who was still a little angry before also unconsciously restrained his anger and said, “Excuse my rudeness, Mr. Soderberg!”

’That’s right!’ Arman said to himself, looking relieved, he waved his hand and said, “Meh, forget it! Forget it! I don’t care about you! I’m not going to get into trouble with you guys. I’m a big-hearted person.”

”……”

Several knights looked at Arman’s appearance and had inexplicable discomfort in their hearts, “Mr. Soderberg! Even if you are one of the people in power in Soderberg, I still hope that you maintain respect for the princess of the country!”

”I already respect her! Which one of you has seen me disrespecting her? Damn it!” Arman said with displeasure.

”…….”

”All right! All right! The two Soderbergs, nice to meet you! And everyone who is kneeling, get up! No need to be so polite with me!”

The Seventh Princess saw that the young knight seemed to be about to speak again and hastily interrupted him.

”Soderbergs, won’t you introduce yourselves?”

”Shillong.”

”Arman.”

”I heard from Mr. Andre before that Miss Nefiro was a bodyguard hired for him by someone else and I didn’t believe it. But now that I see you two, I kind of believe it! How about it! Are you interested in giving Nefiro to me?”

The Seventh Princess said with great interest.

Nefiro, beside her, looked at the princess in helplessness.

”What! You actually want to abduct sister Nefiro!?” Arman said in shock.

”The price we pay for hiring sister Nefiro is not cheap!” Shillong also said.

The Seventh Princess directly ignored Arman’s words and followed Shillong’s and asked, “Shillong, Mr. Soderberg! You seem to underestimate me, don’t you? As royalty, you think I would not be able to afford to hire a bodyguard? Even if her career level is above 10, I can easily provide it!”

”…….”

Shillong silently glanced at Nefiro: “Sister Nefiro, tell her what your salary is.”

”Haha~” Nefiro laughed: “Little Lucia, Shillong gives me a salary of 840 gold coins per year! If you give me 850 gold coins, then I’ll gladly join you!”

”Eight hundred and forty gold coins?” Seventh Princess Lucia was staggered in place.

The knights behind her all opened their mouths wide and looked at Nefiro with an incredulous face.

The surrounding civilians heard the 840 gold coins, and the flames of jealousy lit in their eyes, staring at Nefiro fiercely!
