Chapter 140 – Taleia
“What are you talking about? The subject of the alliance between Taleia and Jason right now is not Taleia, but Jason? It’s too much for a joke.”
“Brother. Objectively speaking, Jason is better than Talaia. So, who should be attracted to whom? Taleia going to the Steel Bank and signing a contract with the mercenaries. It’s beyond Taleia’s ability. You know his personality, too.”
I knew the personality of Tichrist and Taleia.
He was arrogant and did not bother to make an effort to make friends.
When Talaia made her connections, it was when she was clearly judged to be above herself, just like the royal family.
“That judgment will become clear if we observe more.”
**
Tigris went to Thaleia first.
Taleia didn’t seem to understand why her eldest son had come looking for her.
“What’s the matter?”
“What must happen when siblings see each other’s faces? I just stopped by to see how you are these days.”
Tigris came here with an ulterior motive and cleared his throat.
And he said it right away.
“You borrowed money from the Steel Bank.”
“It did.”
“My family is not a family without money, and if there is such a thing, they will come to me first. Then I would have lent the money without interest.”
Taleia smiled.
With Tigris approaching her first, it seemed to her that what she had been doing was not wrong.
“I have no father. It’s going to tear apart in just a little while. Do you need your brother’s help?”
“I heard that the interest on the steel bank is substantial. I’ll lend you some money pay it off I do not charge interest Just give me a stake in the salon.”
“Would you like a stake in the business your sister owns?”
“Wouldn’t that be better than paying interest?”
Even as Tigris said that, she looked at Taleia.
Talleya said that her brother, who was always confident in her attitude, made her feel better.
“Brother, I have no intention of taking money, so just go.”
“What?”
“If my business goes well, the elders of the family will also draw attention. I am the only one who can develop the family by further growing the existing business. It is unacceptable for anyone else to raise a spoon in such an honor.”
Tigris’ eyes changed in an instant as Taleia immediately recognized her own intentions and gave her clean refusal.
Tigris glared at Thaleia.
And she said Taleia didn’t back down.
“Do you think you can eat the Wolf family like this?”
“If my brother doesn’t become a superman, in the end it all depends on who the people in the family follow the most.”
“Are you popular?”
“She becomes the empress. Doing business well. She’s a senior cleric. Don’t you think this will give you a lot of popularity?”
Tigris had nothing to say.
Clearly, there were no gaps in Thaleia’s words.
Tigris just stood up.
She cut off the conversation because it didn’t seem like the conversation would go any further.
“You are doing this. Not good. Even if she becomes empress. If you don’t want to be treated as an outsider by your family, do well in advance.”
Not long after Tigris left, Daphne also came to visit Thaleia.
Daphne was always her older sister who dismissed herself as having a bad brain.
“What day is it today? A lot of unexpected guests are coming.”
“Is your brother gone? How did the story go?”
“I refused because he tried to put a spoon on my work.”
“Hmm.”
Daphne has already noticed.
Thaleia’s words were different.
Without her father, she hardly seemed to care about the ups and downs between her sisters.
“If you want to talk like an older brother, just go. At best, it would be providing military support.”
“Wouldn’t that be a bad story? How can you trust a mercenary group that feeds on money outside? In the end, the only thing you can trust is the subordinates and family you raised yourself.”
“I will take care of my own business.”
“If you ruin your business, you’re saying it because it’s not just your business. One pillar of the Wolf family is missing.”
“Then help without conditions. Wouldn’t you like that? My sister always nags me for saying I’m stupid, but I have a brain like this.”
When Tal Leia came out so strong, even Daphne, who was smart enough, couldn’t say anything.
If Talaia succeeded, she would be one step ahead of her family head, and if she failed, one of the sources of profit for the Wolf family would be greatly shaken.
Daphne didn’t want anything.
However, considering Taleia’s position, it was a gamble worth taking.
Talleia felt better when her older sister, who had been ignoring her all her life, couldn’t say anything.
“She’s a big sister, and if she wants to win the competition, she’s not going to do anything messy. She makes it fair just like me. And she bites a nice guy too. Ah. Wouldn’t she have a better man than the crown prince?”
Daphne got up from her seat and went outside.
And muttered
“Such a bitch.”
**
Time passed and finally the night of the decisive battle came.
It was a decisive battle for control of brothels that would take place throughout the Palmo Empire.
Taleia’s men and a mercenary corps gathered from here and there were moving through the alleyways, taking advantage of the dark night.
Their goal was only one.
It was to wipe out the organization hostile to Thaleia to such an extent that it could not be resurrected.
Fortunately, these bottom thugs often lived together.
Besides, Taleia even made a request to the crown prince, so there wouldn’t be any guards interfering with today’s work.
Cities near the capital.
The size of the city is not large, but it has its own brothel and a mansion where the ruling organization lives.
The mansion was surrounded by Taleia’s men and mercenaries.
One of the mercenaries felt strange and said.
“No. But there’s no one standing guard. He says he’s a thug, but can he do this?”
Said one of Thaleia’s men.
“Haha. So I guess I’ll be content with living in just one small city like this until now. Rather, it made things easier. If everyone is sleeping, place a knife needle one by one around the neck. Let’s rob the warehouse.”
If you kill everyone and take the money, even if you want to resurrect, you won’t be able to do it.
All of them threw hooks and ropes over the fence of the mansion.
And quietly went inside.
There was no one in the mansion’s yard.
They opened windows and doors and entered the mansion.
They went around each room with hand signals and told them to kill everyone.
And at that moment, people’s shouts were heard outside.
A hostile organization hiding in the alley outside the mansion came out.
“Yeah. I really wanted to come. This is coming.”
“The inside of the Wolf family is also quite frightening. In order to take the position of head of household, you spilled information about your younger sister like this.”
Jason didn’t even spill the information himself.
He didn’t have to be a risk target.
Spear did this.
She covered her face and went around her hostile organization.
And she briefly showed off her advanced skills.
That alone gave the hostile organization confidence in this information.
A high-ranking thief was strong enough to be the boss of a decent city organization.
The Wolf family was the only place that could hire such a talented person as a subordinate.
And the hostile organization naturally assumed that either Tigris or Daphne leaked this information.
Eventually, Jason was able to safely hide and control all of this.
If the surprise attack was successful, they would win greatly, but if the strategy was exposed to the enemy, they would lose greatly.
Now, Thaleia’s subordinates and mercenaries were as if they were surrounded.
The hostile organization began throwing Molotov cocktails prepared in advance at their strongholds.
The mercenary mage tried to use the magic of calling rain, but the archer of the hostile organization quickly sniped the mage.
The mansion started burning.
It turned into a fiery hell.
Many of Taleia’s men and mercenaries have already been killed by Molotov cocktail attacks.
That was far more profitable than burning down the mansion.
Those who barely survived tried to climb over the fence again.
Arrows flew at them, and they couldn’t avoid the arrows while crossing the wall.
Some tried to escape through the front door.
And the door that normally locks from the inside is locked from the outside today.
The people in the vicinity trembled with fear when this uproar took place in the middle of the night.
And the guards watching it from afar had a conversation.
“I’m just watching, following the orders of the Crown Prince. The uproar is so big that I wonder if this is okay.”
“Well, because thugs fight each other. We don’t have to go out. But certainly more turbulent than expected.”
“It will be difficult to use that mansion after repairing it again. Better to tear it down and build a new one.”
“What. Do it like that It must be that you can make more money than building a new mansion.”
