Reincarnated As A Li Chapter 836: Brains To Help The Hegemony

Chapter 836: Chapter 836: Brains To Help The Hegemony

After a few exchanges, George was aware of who this massive golden lion was.

This was Kael, the All-King, the Master and Pride Leader to N’bayé, and the King of all Kings.

As impressive as those titles were, George could never truly comprehend the scope of what they ant. He didn’t even know how vast a cosmic faction could be in reality as he still struggled to co to terms with one faction owning a million arkships..

But George understood one thing, this lion was powerful.

From the little movents, the tail flicks, the blinks, the tapping of his claws on the ground, George had seen that everything the All-King did carried a lot of weight.

"What do you want from us?" George asked. He was now sitting down cross-legged on the floor in front of the massive golden lion.

Kael, calm and poised, was also sitting down with his limbs tucked close to him and his tail curved around his hind.

He looked down at George, "Your potential," Kael stated plainly.

George frowned.

"I want you to grow properly. I wish for you and the monkey race to grow properly and recover your lost honour..." Kael added.

"Honour?" George asked.

"Didn’t N’bayé give you information about the history of your race and the glorious past they once had?" Kael tilted his head.

"She did," George said, "But that is the past. One step at a ti."

Although George said this, he was just being pragmatic. The universe had destroyed his ancestors for breaking the rules. He didn’t want to do that.

However, that was a surface thought. Kael and George both knew that eventually, once the civilization rose to greater heights, their curiosity would no longer be contained.

Kael was hoping for this, George on the other hand hoped that such a day would not co. Even he knew that he might not be able to hold back his curiosity.

"All things will co in due ti, but I am more interested in your potential to make progress.

You know I want to know where you are going from here on out," Kael said.

George thought about it. This was his master. Although he had very little recollection of signing that contract, it is what it is and there was no changing it, not unless he could beat Kael which was more like a high fantasy dream than a possible future event.

It made sense that Kael was interested in the progress of the monkeys because they were his vassals. Their progress was his progress.

"Well, we have just set up base here on this planet for the ti being, I have plans to enact so it’s not like we will be idling around.

With the arkship as our launchpad, I believe we can quickly reach a civilization level that would be to your standard."

"That’s good, that’s good. But rely reaching that level will be hard, you know. It’s not like you guys are being shielded from the rest of the world like before.

The lions are causing their own trouble and the universe is still struggling with how to deal with us.

And then there’s you guys, monkeys who once threatened the stability of the universe with your inventions and experints.

Your threat level is almost the sa as ours, but you are far too weak.

Or, do you expect them to let you off just because you are starting all over again?

Mind you, to the universe, the monkeys are as good as dead. It probably knows you guys still exist but would not have done anything if you guys were not active."

Kael told George the truth. The monkeys were supposed to be extinct. The only reason they were still around was that so of the ancestors had hidden the ordinary mbers of their race away while they themselves died off from whatever it was that was killing them.

Once the monkeys start making significant progress again, they would co under the radar and be tagged for a cleanup.

They might have fooled the universe once but the universe never forgets.

"I assud that you would protect us?" George said.

"And why would we do that?" Kael asked.

George looked down. He didn’t care about the universe, he just wanted to continue living so that he could experience all the things needed to experience and satisfy every urge of curiosity he had in his being.

"Aren’t we your Vassals? The least you could do is at least protect us while we grow stronger," George said. With this, he revealed a card that he had known all along.

The monkeys were valuable to the lions.

"Hmm," Kael nodded, "That’s fine. It would have been considered at any other period of ti.

Right now, the Lions have their own fights.

However..."

It was them that a devilish smile flashed on Kael’s face before disappearing almost imdiately. George thought he was dreaming. But he was certain after replaying his photographic mory.

A chill went down his spine.

Kael continued, "The Monkeys and Lions have the sa enemies. It’s not like it’s avoidable.

From now on, your Monkey Civilization shall start developing solely to aid the Lion Hegemony.

We shall provide you with resources, and you will make sure you give a sufficient return on investnt.

We give you technology, you improve it.

We give you enemies, you discover the best way to kill them.

We give you worlds, you tell us how to dismantle them.

We give ourselves to you and then in return you

In return for your loyalty and obedience, we shall protect you, and we shall let you grow."

Kael laid the foundation for a relationship between the two.

The monkeys were different, he could not just ask them for regular tributes, that would be a massive waste of brain power, one which they could not afford.

Since the monkeys were so smart, why don’t they just channel their smartness into helping the lions reach the top?

Wouldn’t that be a perfect combo? The lions were already quite smart themselves even though they used brute force a lot.

But once they combine their natural leadership skills, their resources, their Vassals, and fuse it with the Law of Wisdom, there would be no limit to what they can do.

"This is what you’ve wanted from the very beginning isn’t it?" George asked, "It’s what you’ve been planning since I was born, right?"

Kael blinked, he always loved talking with intelligent people. The conversations were so much easier.

"You can say that," Kael said.

The sole reason he had raised the monkeys to this level was so that they could be of use. It wasn’t for so altruistic reason.

If the monkeys were useless, they would have been converted to at rations for his wolves a long ti ago.

"Then why did you allow us to leave the arkship? Why did you let us go?

Why did N’bayé and the other lions leave us?" George expressed his inquisitiveness through his words because it really confused him.

The little s could have just maintained a strong hold on them and kept them working all the while without having to risk backlash from the universe or a possibility of rebellion.

"Intelligence cannot be confined, George," Kael said, "For your race and civilization to grow, you need exposure.

That is the reason why you all are outside the arkship right now, exposure.

And the exposure is only going to get more severe from here on out once you officially start working for us.

The monkey system is already open to the other vassals and you will have access to information about what is happening around the universe very soon.

Your race will be contacted, missions will be issued, orders will be given. You will understand more about yourselves within a week than you have understood in the last twenty years.

So prepare yourselves. Your coming days will be filled with blood, slaughter, strategic planning, and the managent of all manner of experints.

I trust simple consulting is not beyond you. So Primordials, your colleagues may reach out to probe your intelligence."

George nodded. He noticed that Kael had changed his wording.

Whereas before, it was working together, it was now frad as him working for Kael.

"Will we suffer?" George asked a strange question at this ti, one that surprised Kael a little. It was not among the many questions he had expected George to ask.

"Not all of you, not if we play the ga right," He said.

George sighed. There was no other option. Not once did Kael ntion that they had the choice of refusing this request. It was clear that this was not a request but an allocation of duty.

"What do you want us to do now?" Georgia asked.

Kael yawned, lying down in a manner that most had never seen.

Even as he stretched his limbs on the ground and rested on his belly, he still looked very impressive.

"For now, expand and absorb. I shall stay to guide you all for the next week. At the end of the week, we shall put those big brains of yours to work."
