Vijay received news about the investment deal proposed by the Venetians.

"It took them long enough," he muttered to himself. He had anticipated this development, sensing that the Venetians were prolonging the process of finalizing the investment deal, especially after the Ottoman Empire's move to support the Mughals. Now, with the Empire's decisive victory over the Ottoman fleet, the Venetians should have harboured confidence in the stability of the Dakshin Bharatiya Empire and should also be assured that it would not align with the Ottomans.
