“You've got some nerve. If you were a member of the Dark Family, you would have heard of me. ”

“I don't know what you mean. ”

“That I could slit your throat if I wanted to. I know you call him crazy. Normal people are too busy crouching...... You're too much to handle. Do you have three necks? ”

I've assisted him for about five days. And I know what his status window is. So I was confident in dealing with him.

But rather that confidence seems to have had an adverse effect. There were clear doubts in the eyes of the Confucius.

What he said was not to bow down and obey like a slave.

I knew myself well, but I had a reasonable doubt about what I believed and deserved. Though he didn't have a good tone.

But I didn't tighten my head.

Instead, I knelt down.

“I heard you don't like people crouching.... ”

“Where did you hear that? ”

“Dylan.”

He twisted his legs and laughed. He gently sweeps the armrest of the throne.

“What's your relationship with Dylan? ”

“I'm a distant relative. It's almost the same, but it's a good fit from the migration to the territory. ”

“Where are you from?"

“This is Portuna.”

“Those Portuguese bastards aren't all the same. That's why I like it. Hahaha!”

The Confucius smiled coolly. So far, it's going as I expected. I like the way he behaves without being afraid.

Suddenly, Confucius Hamel frowned.

“But aren't you the head of the Dark One? They're like parasites that suck the blood out of our poor territory. What kind of face did he crawl into? ”

If it hadn't been for Dylan, the head of the Avengers, Suhyun, would have begged for his life trembling in a heartbeat if he had only heard about the Confederacy.

But I don't have to. This is a Confucius' trick to test my vessel.

“You're mistaken. We Avengers are not that kind of organization. ”

“What if?”

“We are preparing a number of businesses for the colonists. First of all, we got rid of a parasite that ate up the land of the noble Adeline family. We plan to take in not only the Black Pigs, but other dark gangs, one by one. ”

“Hmm……. ”

I've said a few words about this as Dylan, so I won't doubt it much.

“First and foremost, we are now going to set up a company called 'Mathis’, not Avengers, to run a legitimate business. ”

“Recite in detail. ”

"We will get a business license from the bureau soon. Once I have permission, I will bring all the businesses in the land to yield, pay good tax, and be loyal to the Lord. ”

“Sounds like a good thing to say. ”

He laughed if he liked it. Sir Paramella beside me was still staring down at me with an expressionless expression.

If anything, how relaxed was the hand holding the sword?

“You look a lot like Dylan. You have a face, you have a speech. ”

“He learned a lot from me. Since the day he fell off the balcony and got into an accident. That's why you think they look alike. It's my way of saying it.”

“Really? I hear Dylan's been a rookie ever since he fell off the balcony, and there's actually you behind it. ”

I smiled and expressed my positivity. This should have filled up all the remaining pieces of the puzzle.

“I wouldn't have come all this way empty-handed. Take it out. ”

I took the proposal out of my arms, and Lord Paramella came forward and took it for me. And I spread the word to Confucius Hamel looking good.

“Hmm…… 1,200 gold. It's not small money. ”

Confucius knows that Confucius Prague, his brother, has received 1,000 gold coins from the Black Pigs. I gave him the ledger.

That's why I added 200 more gold. If the amount is the same, even doing a good job is likely to offend.

“So, you're going to pay me back this money every month? ”

“Sponsorship, not repayment. Our company basically sees the future and invests in it. They want to invest in Confucius Hamel's future. ”

“Hahaha! I like this one. So you're pushing me to be your successor? ”

“Of course.”

So far it has gone according to the scenario I planned, but after that it is a little different. Because I'm going to sponsor the other communists.

It will take a long time to find out, and it may remain a secret, but if Confucius Hamel finds out, he will be furious.

But don't worry. I already have a good excuse.

“How likely do you think I am to be your successor? ”

“Very sparse. ”

“You're too honest. But why would you want to bet against me? ”

“The greater the risk, the greener the fruit will be." ”

I expressly expressed my desire. People like the same kind of people. It doesn't look good, but now is the time to wear something similar to a prince's clothing.

“What if I become the heir? ”

“Push back as much as we've built. ”

“Be specific.”

“If you would like to share your interest in a large business, such as the mercenary business or the guild business, starting with various necessities or food delivery contracts……. ”

A duchess nods.

“It's that easy. By the way, is that all you got? ”

“No, I will do anything you ask. ”

“Any good assassins? ”

“I do. He's a skilled sailor who can handle any knight." ”

It wasn't Calmond, it wasn't Elona, it was me. I was thinking of becoming a Joker myself.

Confucius Hamel licks his lips with his tongue and smiles strangely.

“And the hitman? For example, my brothers... ”

I tightened my head pretending to be surprised.

“Why are you so surprised? I could easily succeed without my brothers. Have you even thought about it? Stupid.”

“That's not true. ”

It was an important question. At that instant, a number of possibilities spread through my mind. Depending on how you answer, the future unfolds.

The conclusion came.

“Absolutely not. ”

“Why? You said you'd do anything for me. I can't believe those bastards with one mouth... ”

“Even so, you cannot kill a contractor. These are the precious sons of the late, merciful Viceroy before they can compete. I will not hear what you just said. ”

“Hahahaha!”

Whether he was in a good mood, Confucius Hamel stood up with a big smile. Then he approached me and reached out his hand.

“Rise.”

I got up holding his hand. He grabbed me on the shoulder.

“If you had committed a hit-and-run, you would have been beheaded immediately. ”

That's serious. I was hoping to test it, but I didn't expect it to be this violent. Ten years.

“I accept Mathis' offer. To be my faithful servant. ”

“It's an honor, Your Highness. We look forward to welcoming you. ”

I bent my back in the sense of loyalty. Of course, Confucius and Sir Paramella couldn't see my smile on their lips.

When I returned to Dylan, I passed through the front door of the mansion and went straight to Sapiella's home. Outside, Sir Lancelot and Arwen stand.

“Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be working for Rosetta now? ”

You greet Lord Lancelot first, then ask Arwen. She smiles beautifully.

“I told her she's not feeling well, so she's resting today. ”

“Really?"

I looked at the closed abode of spirituality. Is he sleeping? I raised Mana and focused on her hearing.

Sagrak. Sagrak.

I hear the sound of the duvet swelling repeatedly. She's not sleeping. Eluna came to see me this morning to complicate my head.

I signaled to Arwen to look away.

We went down the hall with no one.

“You won't be hearing from her for a while, right? ”

“I will. Usually when you're not feeling well, you sleep all day. ”

“Then I'm going out for a bit. Tell her I'm on a mission if she finds me." Then you'll understand. ”

Arwen's eyes tremble with the word "going out." That's the look on my face that reminds me of something I want to ask.

“Where are you going? ”

“I have someone I want to see for a moment. ”

“The woman you came to see earlier? ”

A bloody smile shook my head. Actually, I'm halfway to Avengers headquarters, but it wasn't a relationship.

“Never mind, it's just a passing relationship. ”

“Oh, I see. I was just wondering who.... ”

“Then why are you suddenly so upset? Did something happen while I was away? ”

I asked him not to know, and Arwen tilted her head.

“I don't know. Suddenly. I was a little nervous because an unknown guest came... Maybe...? ”

“You're tired. I can't believe I'm stuck in here all day with an anonymous visitor. ”

I said that on purpose. I'm curious about Arwen's reaction.

Arwen shuts up to say something. She'll guess. She's the same woman, jealous of what Sapiella's feeling.

But that's none of my business. My job now is not to take care of my women, but to grow our organization further.

“Goodbye, then. Good job.”

“Have a safe trip. ”

I show my hands up and return to my quarters armed, leaving the mansion and heading to the Avengers Headquarters.

The process was not easy.

After leaving the mansion, everyone I met on that short walk asked me who Eluna was. I didn't know rumors spread so fast.

I have a suspect, so I'm going to have to come back and take the blame.

* * *

When I arrived at the headquarters, I skillfully removed the rug and moved to the basement.

On the way down, some of the men guarding the passageway greet me sharply. There were not many. Most of your men appear to be on their way to the forward base.

I went a little deeper. Eluna, who was guarding the front of the room, was reviewing the documents on the table.

“Well done.”

“Ah, my lord. ”

When she looked at me, she stood up with a smile and respected me.

“Welcome. I wasn't expecting you today. ”

“I had an unexpected break. But you're good at acting? ”

“Your master's pretty good, too. ”

She smiled and asked. I sighed and shook my head.

“You made me very embarrassed. There was a huge commotion in the house. Everyone asked me if I had a girl. I thought you were the spirit of the nobles. ”

“Don't you think you deserve to meet the noble spirit? ”

“Not there. ”

I may be an apprentice if I'm an official butler, but I have no choice. In fact, there was no one who didn't ask me what my motives and deacons looked like.

“I have to be careful from now on. ”

“Yes. Be careful. But to be honest, it wasn't that bad. It's not just offensive to get noticed, is it? ”

“I'm glad.”

We went to the room smiling. Then I accidentally touched Eluna's arm, and the window pops up.
