Chapter 18 – Episode 18 the Imperial Family
“Good night. Wherever you go, you just have to go to the capital. Then, to commemorate my son becoming an adult, I will give him a present tonight. Sleep in the main building today. Please vacate a guest room.”
Jason could clearly see what his father was up to.
“If it’s for sex education, you don’t have to.”
“Haha. I thought my youngest son was a boy. He didn’t know there was anything to be afraid of. Don’t worry. After all, when you’re older, you’ll do it all. And if you don’t learn properly when you’re young, you might end up twisting your life by yourself later on, so it’s good to learn from a good teacher in advance.”
“Not that. I already did that training with my teacher.”
Jeffrey opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Now Jason even took his pleasure in surprising his father.
“Haha. This guy.”
Jeffrey said this as a compliment to the fact that his son was a real man.
This world had no sexually transmitted diseases and perfect methods of birth control.
There were people who couldn’t enjoy sex because they didn’t have the power, but there were no people who couldn’t enjoy sex because they had the power.
There were also people who were looking for famous fish as if they were looking for delicious food.
And at the age of 11, it was rare for anyone to know a girl already.
Only those who grew up really quickly could enjoy this luxury.
“Okay. I guess your teacher is really pretty. Then I said that my gift was unnecessary.”
“Yes. I will ask for it later if I need it.”
Jason liked the woman he had won through his powers.
He preferred spending the night with Spia to the prostitute his father had given him as a gift.
“Hmm. Okay.”
And Jeffrey brought up a final reason for calling his youngest son, who was overflowing with talent.
“I’ve talked about things about the imperial family before.”
“Yes.”
“So he decided to sponsor several princes and princesses. But that is.”
Human greed knew no bounds.
After sponsoring every possible emperor’s child, he wanted the next emperor to be the one who had the least possibility and would feel the greatest favor.
Next, he wanted to promote the person who would be most helpful to the Wolf family as emperor.
It’s absurd greed, but the original human greed was nonsense.
After revealing his father’s true intentions, he said to his clever youngest son.
Even with such ridiculous greed, there was hope that this son could come up with a solution.
“So, do you have any good ideas? Of course, I know that this father’s greed is excessive. She can’t help it even if she can’t answer properly.”
“Let me think about it for a moment.”
It was like a thug manipulating promotions in the police force. It was extremely difficult.
‘But I have the ability to see the status window.’
It seemed like there would be a way to use that ability well.
“Father. Then it is necessary to meet the candidates for the next Emperor in person. Don’t you feel something when you see people in person?”
“Hoo.”
Jeffrey knew.
It was like climbing a high mountain and naturally seeing the top of a low mountain.
After he became a superhuman, his eyes for people got better.
However, the youngest son, who had just started to become a thief, was talking about it.
The son had shown too much for a child’s bravado.
“Then there will be a big party for the imperial family soon. All members of the imperial family will come out. I don’t normally like to attend such events, but I think I should go with my son.”
**
A few days passed.
Jeffrey Wolf, who has been called the dark ball for the first time in a while, went out.
And next to him was his youngest son, Jason Wolf, who had recently begun to be favored by the family.
The two headed for the imperial palace in a carriage with numerous servants and maids.
The Wolf family also had a huge mansion, but it couldn’t compare to the imperial family of the Palmo Empire.
The imperial palace, which had accumulated the wealth of the empire for several generations, was so large that it was difficult to estimate its size.
The banquet hall of the imperial palace was used exclusively as a huge building, and the carriages stopped there.
Geoffrey was also a celebrity in the empire.
Even though he hadn’t been to such a place for a long time, the butler of the imperial palace immediately informed the banquet hall of the Dark Ball’s position.
“Duke of Donoa! Jeffrey Wolf is entering!”
After a brief introduction, Jeffrey Wolf and his son entered the banquet hall.
Jason still didn’t know much about this world.
“Were you a real duke? I thought Dark Ball was just a nickname.”
Before that, I thought he was just a successful gang leader.
“Hmm. Dark Ball is just a nickname. Officially, he owns a suitable piece of land near the capital. But the land doesn’t matter. Ability is what matters. As long as he has the ability, he can get the land wherever he goes.”
Jeffrey seemed happy to be able to teach his son.
A lot of people showed interest in Jeffrey and the young boy with him.
People whispered and guessed Jeffrey’s intentions.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen a Dark Ball at a banquet.”
“Wasn’t he originally a person who thought it would be better to take care of his business and practice his training?”
“He’s someone who doesn’t usually attend banquets held by His Majesty the Emperor.”
“Who is the child next to me? Looking at his clothes, he seems to be one of the children of the Dark Ball.”
“Not one of the Dark Ball’s grown-up children. His body is big, but his face is still young.”
However, no one knew Jason’s true identity.
He was originally a child who did not receive attention from his father, and until he was 11 years old, he was confined to the Wolf family manor.
Jeffrey said with a laugh.
“Look at them. Idiots with no powers and just titles. Can you see that they are afraid of me? After all, that’s why people have to have power.”
“Yes, Father.”
And everyone was curious about Jason’s identity, but no one dared to talk to Jeffrey.
Jeffrey took a reasonably good seat and sat down.
He pointed to the emperor’s children as well, pointing out who Jason should keep an eye on.
“The author is the crown prince. He is regarded as the closest to becoming the next Emperor. Although he is the third son, he received a lot of benefits because he was more talented than the first and second. But the talent isn’t that great.”
Jason nodded his head.
He looked at his status window and his level was 87.
However, his abilities were not so outstanding. He was just above average.
“That woman is the eldest daughter. She was born first and trained the most. That’s it. Oh Nam over there. One of the children the emperor had in his later years. He was talented, but the time to train was short. Of course, since he knows that fact, he is training by reducing the amount of time he sleeps. Finally, the emperor’s youngest daughter is nowhere to be seen. She has the most talent but she ends up she is 7 years old. She won’t have to care.”
Often, in order to become a superhuman, you had to be at least level 90.
And as Jason looked at, the order of talent was the order of the five sons, three sons, and the eldest daughter, and the order of the level was the order of the three sons, the eldest daughter, and the fifth son.
“Everyone is just talking. As for talent, Oh Nam is the best. Currently, the strength of the three boys is the best.”
“Clap. Can you see it with your own eyes?”
Geoffrey was amazed that his youngest son accurately judged those stronger than him.
Originally, it was more difficult to grasp what was higher from below than to accurately grasp what was below from a higher place.
“But really, everyone is at a high level.”
The three sons were level 87, the eldest daughter was level 81, and the first son was level 74.
‘There’s a chance here too.’
There were many records of adventurers who were moderately strong in one adventure becoming superhuman.
With that level of difference, it seemed like they could turn over.
“If a person is stubborn, I will eventually have to look at his personality.”
“Then we should talk. After all, there’s nothing like having a direct conversation when looking at people.”
Geoffrey called a servant.
And when Dark Ball asked to see him, the prince and three sons ran first.
“Oh. Dark ball. I think I will be able to go on my next adventure comfortably because you supported me a lot.”
In terms of position, the crown prince was higher, but Geoffrey was one of the few superhumans in the empire.
Thanks to this, he was receiving half respect from the Crown Prince.
“I brought the Crown Prince here to introduce my son. Say hello.”
“Hello. My name is Jason Wolf.”
“Haha. You still look young. Are you around 16?”
“I am 11 years old.”
“Hoo. He’s very big. Usually a child who grows up this fast shows a talent for physical work. Which way are you training?”
“He is following in his father’s footsteps as a thief.”
“Aha. Yes yes Thieves are always needed.”
And Jason saw the arrogance in the prince’s eyes.
His eyes seemed to ask if he could barely become a thief with that good body.
This kind of person is wrong.
He was a man who moved thinking he knew the world.
And they were a people who treated people with disrespect and disregard for them when they got out of their knowledge.
The prince had a moderate conversation, then slightly bowed his head to Geoffrey and got out of his seat.
“Then see you next time. Dark ball. I’m also a little busy because I have to meet a lot of people who support me. Please understand. Haha.”
He showed signs of subtly ignoring Jeffrey as well.
He seemed to think that if he could rise to the ranks of supermen, he would lay at his feet the level of Geoffrey.
