105 – Strike-6

Weather Aaron was looking at me with his dark hair down and his eyes full of vigilance.

he’s like a knife He didn’t seem like a bad person, but he didn’t seem to be able to be persuaded.

Still, there were many things prepared.

“You shouldn’t be kidding. Your words are extremely rude and dangerous.”

Aaron put the teacup down and said in a cold voice.

“It would not be strange to call the guards right away to hand over the title of head of household to me.”

“But you didn’t call.”

“If it hadn’t been for Leone’s letter of introduction, I would have called you earlier.”

In fact, I wouldn’t have even come here. Without the means to show my identity, I was nothing to this great family.

“As I said beforehand, violent methods are not allowed. I am the daughter of the Weather family. I will not tolerate outrageous methods.”

“I don’t intend to use violent methods. In fact, I already wrote it.”

“What is it?”

“The problems that are happening right now, all of them can be solved.”

Interest flickered in her eyes.

“Skeleton soldiers, archers in the woods, food problems. Everything.”

“It’s hard to believe. People who claim to be able to solve everything if you leave it to them are usually scammers who want to suck the honor and wealth out of House Weather.”

“I understand. But I’m serious. I can do it.”

Aaron hit the desk hard.

“To solve the Skeleton Soldier problem, we need to find a necromancer. We need a high-level magician or heretic inquisitor. do.”

The eyes glaring at me were fierce. Certainly, if you say you can solve all of this at once, you can’t help but think of it as a scam.

“But with enough time, it’s a problem that the Weather family can solve on their own.”

“But what if Lady Aaron solved it alone. In one go.”

“Well…”

It is a bait that cannot but be bitten. As long as there is a greed for power, it is impossible not to be interested in this.

“Certainly, as you say, becoming the head of household is not a dream.

I smiled and nodded. I came to know about it after coming here, but the situation of the Weather family was much more complicated than I thought.

The violent eldest son, the weak second son, the illegitimate and female Aaron, and the stupid and immature youngest.

The head of the Weather family, who had to somehow find a successor within this, was somehow entrusting the work to find a person with few flaws.

“But all I concede is that it’s useful. How are you going to solve three unrelated cases?”

“If it’s a relationship, there is. It’s all a case we made up.”

“yes?”

As if she needed time to accept my words, she paused without saying anything for a moment.

“I think I heard wrong.”

“No. I think you heard it right. I did it.”

She closed her eyes tight.

“It’s absurd. Tell me why I shouldn’t restrain you.”

“Because they can solve them.”

As if she didn’t want to see me speaking confidently, she shook her head.

“Wouldn’t that be solved by killing you right now?”

“You can’t, and even if you succeed, you won’t be able to solve it.”

Anger and fear flashed in her eyes.

“That’s an absurd bluff.”

I took out a few small bone fragments from my pocket and dropped them on the table.

The enchanted bone fragments moved and formed shapes, then returned to my pocket.

“Were you a wizard?”

“Not me, someone else.”

Aaron closed his eyes and thought deeply.

“Was the position of the head of household something that could be obtained so easily…”

“It wasn’t easy. Not many wizards can do this.”

“I’m not doing anything, just fooling others. Ha, that’s a pretty fun flirtation.”

I waited for her answer with a relaxed smile.

“What do you want? If you have that much power, you can achieve what you want without making me the family head.”

“Stop the war. That’s all.”

You don’t need anything else. Because that was all I wanted from the start.

I slowly waited for her to finish her thoughts. You’ll get too much information at once, so you’ll need time to sort it out.

“If I had heard this sooner, I might have succumbed to the temptation. But no.”

It’s unexpected. I thought that if there was a table set up like this, I would definitely eat it.

He was not a man with a weak lust for power. I could still feel it shaking. Nevertheless, she rejected my offer.

“Why?”

“I am Weather, though I may be an illegitimate child. Family glory, family grudge and family memory. None are less important to me.”

This was unexpected.

There is a limit to judging people you haven’t met. No, even if they had met, they would not have been able to notice such detailed information.

“You just said it was a war. Isn’t it to stop restoring the territory that the Aldgild family is actually occupying?”

“Yes, but…”

“no.”

Her expression was so determined.

“It is a place where Weather’s disgrace resides. Through an ancient peace contract, the two families promised to peacefully manage the territory in front of the Middle Land, but that was broken by Aldgild’s betrayal 200 years ago.”

“…”

“They left only the lifeline of House Weather, killed all the rest of the House, and imposed a humiliating peace.”

“You didn’t know that.”

“Twenty years ago, as the Weather became stronger, they were able to recover some lands, but they were the first to break their promise. The Weather family will inevitably destroy them.”

It was a grudge. The long-ago grudges were descending through the ages through the family.

“But both of them belong to the Empire, right? Realistically, isn’t it difficult to perish?”

“It might be. If that’s impossible, at least the entire territory in front of the middle ground will be Weather’s. It will be a minimum courtesy for the ancestors who died first.”

I didn’t think of this.

He knew that the nobles were full of pride for their family. However, I didn’t expect it to be like this.

“People die. Is that what you need to achieve?”

“Of course it is. It is certainly tempting for that individual to become the head of the family, but considering the entire family is mine, that should never happen.”

So close. I didn’t want to use this method, but now I can’t help it.

I took out the Holy Sword.

“It’s no use trying to threaten me…”

After a lot of effort, I was able to put in a blue sword with just a little bit.

It was a bit ambiguous to see it as a sword skill, but the way it spread out in a square centered on the sword rather than glittering at the tip of the blade.

“Whoa… have you seen it? A blue light.”

Aaron’s complexion darkened.

“I’ve heard of it. If what I’m thinking is right, then no way.”

“Yes. It may be hard to believe, but I am a warrior.”

I decided not to use Eleanor’s power, but as long as it’s my political influence, it doesn’t matter.

“Sell my name. This is something the Altdor family wouldn’t allow.”

There was a lot of room to be used, but it was too much for her to use her status as a hero by herself.

I heard from Eleanor. They are obsessed with my identity because my existence itself can undermine the legitimacy of the princess and the emperor.

However, that would not be the case for Creon Altdore, a huge aristocrat who could threaten the emperor. Weather Aaron, who had a rather large family and had not entered the central political world, could not easily deal with it.

“Be friendly with me. I can put on a play for you if need be. Do you need anything more?”

The moment she accepts this, even if she does nothing, the Weather family will be able to become the core of the aristocratic faction.

“Seriously, you’re making an offer that’s hard to refuse.”

It worked. she was shaken

“But it’s too late. I should have told you this first. I’m already unable to do you a favor.”

“Why the hell?”

I did everything I could. It was too much for a plan to make one of hers a prospective family head.

“My job was a political mission. It was the other brothers’ job to prepare the soldiers, and I did the political business and the mercenary contracts.”

“What does that mean?”

“It means that the work starts without me having to move myself. It’s my job to write a letter to the center and make the right cause. As long as I have the ability to take care of it, I don’t have to worry about the details.”

“So what?”

“The work has already begun. The mercenaries have moved, and Aldguild is devastating the territories that have been illegally occupied.”

I realized after listening to her. Why did she say, ‘If I had come a little sooner, I might have been shaken by my words.’

From the moment I stepped into this room, she was already unable to accept my negotiations.
