Book 1-6.6 We Must Get Rid of Him
Janet started to think with
his large body bent over. According to Sesuna, the Royal Knight, Yulian
was a master. In addition, Sesuna claimed that Yulian’s level of
strength could not be compared to any average sword master.
What kind of existence were masters?
Even
in the Silence Empire where there were numerous knights, they had less
than ten masters. Even in the Rojini Kingdom which rivaled the strength
of the Empire, they also had less than ten masters.
‘This is going to be a problem.’
Janet could feel the headache starting to form.
“You must be really happy about this. Thanks to you, Yulian’s popularity has soared up to the heavens.”
Two women wearing thick veils entered Janet’s paoe and started to antagonize him.
At that moment, a single plan of action entered Janet’s mind.
There was hostility on both sides.
He didn’t know about the oldest son, but clearly, this woman’s side was hostile with them.
A force-using master. That was an existence that should not exist in one of the Empire’s provinces.
When
a war begins between kingdoms, magic, sword, spears, the number of
masters in all disciplines play a critical role in the war strategy. The
Silence Empire, which had an army of 500,000 soldiers only had eight
masters.
There are the rare strategists who claim that a single
individual cannot do much in large-scale battles, however, they were
rookie strategists who have never experienced war, no, who have never
experienced a war that included masters.
Their strength to push
through in a straight line; masters were existences who had so much
power than it required three to four commander level knights to barely
manage to block them.
‘We must get rid of him. We must DEFINITELY get rid of him.’
Janet’s
mind started to spin quickly. His plan was perfected in a very short
amount of time. In situations like this when they had allies in the
enemy camp, a shrewd diplomat like Janet could come up with tens of
different methods.
“Madam, you have come.”
Once the thoughts in his mind were settled, Janet greeted Glow Baguna’s third wife, Librie, with a calm expression.
He was full of greed. Although this woman wasn’t crafty or smart, he was confident that this woman would get rid of Yulian.
“What’s
so good that you can have such a calm expression? I asked you to get
rid of Yulian, but all you managed to do was make them praise him even
more.”
Even with Librie continuing to antagonize him, Janet did
not lose his calm demeanor. Rather, he started to smile while preparing
to roll Librie in the palm of his hands.
“Do not worry about it. I have a plan to handle this.”
“What plan? You think you have a plan to lower Yulian’s fame?”
“Hoho, Madam, please stop. Today, I will let you know the method to get rid of Yulian.”
Librie felt her ears opening up and quickly sat down and spoke in a small voice.
“How? There is a way?”
“Of
course. This Janet is someone nobody can ignore, even back in the
empire. Originally, I had planned to slowly progress, however, after
seeing him today, I can no longer let him be.”
Librie followed along.
“What
did I say before! Didn’t I tell you from the beginning about how scary
that child Yulian is? There are no warriors in the desert who do not
know of his name. And two years ago, he gathered the young warriors and
created some brigade called the Red Storm, and quickly, he turned all of
them to be stronger than most veteran warriors.”
“Something like that happened?”
As Janet asked with a surprised expression, Librie got excited and started to continue.
“There
is nobody in Pareia who does not know about it. He said it was a
brigade to take down the Shuarei’s Desert Sword, and those Red Storm
warriors are so loyal to him that if he told them to ‘Die!’ they would
even pretend to be dead. Do you think that’s all? The majority of Pareia
is hopeful that once Yulian becomes the Glow, he will be able to defeat
our nemesis, the Shuarei tribe, and unify the desert.”
“To unify the desert… he has some lofty dreams.”
“The problem is that everyone believes that he could achieve such unbelievable dream.”
Janet was amazed that Librie could speak like that, even if she was full of greed trying to make her son become the Glow.
He was also curious about how she planned to get rid of the second son, Pere, even if Yulian was removed from the equation.
‘Well,
it’s not like this is the first time I’ve seen someone like this. I
just have to focus on completing my end of the bargain properly.
Hehehe.’
Janet was laughing inside as he spoke.
“I am worried about the future of Pareia. If someone so rash becomes the Glow, the foundation of the tribe will start to shake.”
“That’s
exactly my point! Yulian, that child has such absurd thoughts! To unify
the desert…it’s not normal for someone who has not even turned twenty
to think he could do something that nobody has managed to do for
hundreds of years.”
“That is why Librie-nim’s son Orca must become
the Glow and have Librie-nim serve as the regent. That is the way to
lead Pareia to prosperity.”
“I appreciate your words. Anyways, how do you plan on getting rid of Yulian?”
“Librie-nim’s tribe members have all gathered, right?”
“The majority of them are here. Other than the minimum required to protect a young Oasis, they are all here.”
“Around how many are there?”
“Around five hundred or so.”
Janet started to smile at Librie’s answer.
“That should be plenty.”
Janet came close to Librie and started to whisper his plan in her ear.
A smile started to form on Librie’s face.
