Chapter 134 – Chapter 134 Taleia
Jason gently seduced Thalaia.
And Taleia smiled as if she were one of Jeffrey’s children and listened to Jason.
Then Jason suddenly felt a strange sensation and stopped his persuasion.
It was then that Talleia spoke her words to Jason.
“Whats up?”
“Yes?”
It was a silly story.
It wasn’t something that would come out when talking about the brothel business.
“I have no father. Won’t be back for a while enemy outside? Of course it doesn’t matter. Isn’t the enemy within more important than that?”
Jason straightened up and sat down.
She had to figure out why Talleya was saying these things to her now.
“Then what is your sister thinking? Are you planning on taking advantage of the opportunity to become the head of the family while your father is gone?”
“There is nothing you can’t do. It’s true that my brothel business is half way behind the drug business or the mercenary business. But you can turn that around. First of all, get help from the emperor. If it was Crown Prince Idad, would you listen to that kind of request? And you just need to help a little with money.”
Jason did a quick calculation in his head.
It certainly wasn’t completely out of the question.
It wasn’t bad that he could have a closer relationship with the Wolf family, who ruled the underworld even in the imperial family.
The Emperor rules the Yangji and the Empress rules the Yinji.
The picture was fine.
The only thing I hated was Jason.
“Are you asking for help?”
“It would be nice if you could help. When I enter the imperial family, my activities outside are bound to be limited anyway. The tiger enters the imperial family. The fox rules the outside.”
It was no different than telling Jason to play the role of the fox.
For some siblings, it was a mouth-watering proposition.
And when Jason hesitated, Taleia began to persuade him in reverse this time.
“Okay. Jason, your growth is dazzling. Even if you were born 10 years earlier, the current succession structure would have changed greatly. But you just became a senior. Besides, he’s just a thief following in his father’s footsteps. Business is going well, but the number of subordinates who can fight is small, except for my aides.”
Jason pretended to listen to Thaleia’s persuasion this time.
Then Taleia said excitedly, perhaps because she thought that her normally popular youngest brother had bowed her head to her.
“My father passed away too soon. And Tigris’ brother is like fire, and Daphne’s sister is like ice. Even if it’s her youngest sister, she’s the kind of person who will burn or freeze without looking after her.”
“Are you saying that the only option left for me is Sister Taleia?”
“If I were you, I would make that choice. I know you approached Prince Idad in order to maintain good relations with the imperial family. And the political situation has come this far. Wouldn’t it be most appropriate for you and me to hold hands?”
Jason had to do his best not to show his true feelings.
Not too long ago, it was Jason who had plotted with Crown Prince Idad that he could abandon Tal Leia in order to maintain his relationship with her.
But Thaleia had a completely different idea.
Jason asked as if he was interested.
“Great. It’s understandable until I hold hands with my sister. So how does the fight in the family go? My father is also safe. Are you going to hit each other and even fight?”
“Even the imperial family wouldn’t want that. There is a high possibility that a bloody fight will not be fought until the very end. Since there is no father who had absolute power and no Demeter, his father’s right-hand man, the outcome of this fight must be up to the elders.”
“The elders?”
Geoffrey was half-secluded in his study, listening only to his reports.
Demeter is said to be busy here and there, but in the end he was just a shadow of Geoffrey.
In the past, when the Wolf family was growing, there were subordinates who helped Jeffrey.
They reached old age and retired one by one.
But they didn’t lose all their power.
The backbone of the Wolf family’s work now were all their students, and they were still passing the time as advisors from time to time.
They were called elders within the family.
“I have to do something to convince them. Because the power is the same and the level is the same. Winning the heart of an elder is the fastest way to become a head of household.”
“Hmm.”
Jason thought for a moment.
He, too, was aware of the Elder’s existence.
However, he did not pay much attention to the elder because he thought that his father would definitely arrange a successor.
Even in the thug world, there was an elder.
Normally, they acted like they were dead, but when something big happened, they acted as voices.
So the thugs lived by pretending to treat the elders.
As Jason rummaged through that memory, he thought about what the elders wanted most.
There was only one thing older people wanted.
“I have to give you one seat at a time. To their children.”
The old man had only one hope left.
It was just that the child was doing well.
And no matter how good their parents were, there were children who didn’t do well.
“Hmm. You’ll need a lot of help too, right? There is a limit no matter how much space you make in a brothel.”
“But there’s no way that Tigris and Daphne’s sister can’t think like this.”
Taleia let out her exclamation as she blinked her eyes.
Certainly, her youngest brother was different no matter what.
She had more to gain by talking to him.
“As expected, your father cared for you. He might be my greatest fortune to be able to hold hands with you.”
And Jason finished the story.
“Then your sister will take the lead in this matter. I have a lot of things to do with Red Dragon Gong and various merchants, so it will take some time to create a seat. In the first place, the business I do has wizards occupying important positions, and it does not belong to the Wolf family.”
“Yes, yes. Then I will speak before the other brothers reach out. And the brothel business should be more aggressive. To make room.”
“Yes. That would be great. Still, there is an organization aiming for the position. We need to show that the Wolf family is not dead yet.”
Now, everyone told me what Thaleia was going to do in the future.
It’s not the way she originally tried to convince her, but somehow she’ll move more and more towards her flock.
And this wasn’t the end.
Jason said to get some more Taleia.
“Now then, shall we go back to the story?”
“Is there anything more to say?”
“Is it true that you said that when you become the head of the family, you will leave the management of the Wolf family to me?”
“Okay. Although I say go If you’re going to be the empress in the imperial family, you’ll be busy. Although the head of household is yours. It’s almost safe to say it’s yours. As long as our alliance is strong.”
“Doesn’t that sound like much fun?”
In fact, Jason didn’t even care much about being the head of the Wolf family.
What he had now was enough for him to establish another clan.
He was just trying to take it away because his former enemies wanted the position of head of the Wolf family.
Even now, pretending to help Talaia, he was only thinking of taking what was hers.
“Think of it this way. If I’m not going to be the head of household anyway, it doesn’t matter if I take what I have and go out and live comfortably.”
“What more do you want?”
“Yes. Do you think this younger brother will be able to become your sister’s faithful ally?”
Thaleia was about to get angry, but held back.
She, too, ran brothels all over the empire, and she’d been through a lot.
And it was easier to control someone who responded to a certain gain rather than someone who came with honey on her tongue.
Rather, Jason’s reaction made her look down on him.
‘Whoops. I’m still too young To move one’s body for the benefit of the moment.’
And Taleia had a lot of worries.
Jason was a man with a lot.
There were enough women.
There was also a lot of money.
In the future, these two elements were going to be many in his life.
It was a life that all men would envy.
And now all he had left was honor.
However, it was not easy for him to obtain an honor higher than the title of Duke of the Palmo Empire.
Even if she became empress, there wasn’t much she could give Jason.
‘The only thing higher than the title of duke is the king or the emperor.’
However, there was no way he could realistically promise such a thing, and even if he did, the clever Jason couldn’t believe it.
And there was one thought running through her head.
“Then let’s do this.”
