A few days later, Marcia and the others arrived at the Magic Phoenix Empire's capital city. Bryant and Lance, who had already gathered fifty thousand troops, had been waiting for her in the city.
Felicia was delighted to see Marcia. Her request for help had been a shot in the dark as she hadn't expected Marcia to come.
"Master." Erica's eyes lit up as soon as she saw Felicia.
"How have you been?" Felicia's eyes glimmered as she asked.
Erica nodded to convey that she was all right.
"Preceptor Felicia, I have something to ask Her Majesty," Marcia faced Felicia as she spoke.
With a subtle nod, Felicia led Marcia and Bryant to meet the Magic Phoenix Empire's queen.
"We are very grateful that General Marcia and the other two Generals have decided to help us again in our time of need." The queen fixed her gaze on Marcia. Despite her honeyed tone, she felt a pity that she couldn't have such an outstanding woman work for her empire.
"Your Majesty, please don't thank me just yet. I have some conditions that I'd like to put forward," Marcia said calmly. She placed her hands behind her and stared at the queen expectantly.
"Conditions?" The queen was initially stunned, but then she added, "Well, that's how it normally is. Favors typically come at a cost. So, what do you want in exchange for your cooperation with our Magic Phoenix Empire?"
"We request that the Magic Phoenix Empire frees itself from the control of the Phoenix Master Clan and merges with our United Army," Marcia's tone and expression were solemn as she spoke to the queen.
