Chapter 65 – Chapter 65 Making Money
An unanswered debate ensued.
“Let’s decide this matter carefully. While enduring enough war.”
Edgar, the king of the elves, even had a delusion that, if he was in a hurry, an elf man might voluntarily appear to dishonor him for the sake of the kingdom.
But that didn’t happen.
His aides felt ashamed that this incident leaked out.
Time was passing.
**
Jason sensed an ominous aura in his house.
I heard that Daphne is actively supporting the dwarves of the Gray Mountains, and Tigris is trying to plant a candle there.
And, funny enough, Jeffrey condoned the fight.
This was also judged as part of the succession competition.
‘War. It’s a war.’
Since ancient times, there has been no business as lucrative as war.
In Europe, it was a good way to make money by taking hostile nobles as prisoners and ransoming them.
America’s war in modern times was ultimately about money.
In the end, it was also a matter of money that street thugs in Korea went to war with hostile organizations.
The current war between elves and dwarves in the Gray Mountains could also be another way to make money.
With that, Tigris and Daphne are competing.
A number of cases could emerge.
Tigris won and squeezed the elves and was able to earn their own money.
Daphne could have won, and his father’s plan could have gone ahead.
And the Elves and Dwarves were weakened and made a truce, and the Wolf family could have benefited from both sides.
‘My father is a scary person after all.’
In a way, it seemed that there was nothing left but the love for blood.
And Jason didn’t like all three numbers.
In the end, both Tigris and Daphne were their competitors.
And it was also a goal to take revenge. I didn’t want to see them benefit in the slightest.
‘It just happened to be a little free.’
Thanks to Love Gel, Sanburnique started to return moderately.
Even in the capital, a kissing room using love gel was spreading by word of mouth.
Jason didn’t have to do anything.
‘And if my father condoned the Tigris wearing the handaris. You mean it doesn’t matter if I cross my legs?’
Jason gathered his girls.
And he prepared to move quickly to the Gray Mountains.
Riding a carriage was also a luxury.
In every village we passed, we sold our tired horses and bought new ones, and headed towards the Gray Mountains as fast as we could.

Edgar, the elven king, has not yet made up his mind.
And he asked him for a new self-audience.
“Jason Wolf?”
“Yes. He is the youngest son of the Wolf family and is said to have risen to prominence in recent years.”
This world is meritocracy.
It was also common for successors to be handed down to those with the most ability.
Even men and women did not discriminate.
If she was a capable daughter, she would take her daughter-in-law, and she would pass on her family name to her grandson.
And no matter how exceptionally talented they were, they usually couldn’t beat their age.
It was a reality that a 10-year-old genius could not beat a 15-year-old genius.
Being born first was a huge advantage.
But the youngest stands out.
It was unusual.
At the same time, I was also worried.
A sharp awl would pierce a pocket, but an angular stone would hit a chisel.
“What happened to such a person? Did he say he came to help Tigris?”
“No. He said he would give me a third option.”
“The third option… Good night. See you once.”
None of the options given to Edgar were to his liking.
It wouldn’t be bad to see how exceptionally talented the youngest is.
A man named Jason entered the audience room.
He had a youthful face and was as big as an adult.
He bowed in accordance with his manners.
“So what can you offer me?”
“I would like to ask you one thing first. What did Tigris suggest to you? That doesn’t sound like a very good suggestion.”
If it was a good proposal, there was no way the elf king’s expression would be so rotten.
“Your family… You really don’t communicate.”
“It’s kind of like that.”
The news of each sibling was also known by rumor.
Edgar said simply because it didn’t matter much to tell Tigris’ offer for now.
Tigris offers to use an elf male as a stallion in exchange for helping the elf king.
Jason wrinkled his expression.
He also hated the fact that women were forced to work in brothels.
The same applies to men as well.
Selling his own castle had to be done by individual will.
Even so, it was hard and arduous work.
It was to be forbidden to do such a thing by being compelled by others.
Seeing this attitude of Jason, Edgar was moved to some extent.
“Then let’s hear about the third option.”
Jason didn’t have subordinates with exceptional strength like Daphne.
At least, there were many strong shoulders for the drug trafficking of Tichrist.
All three siblings, who are now popular in the Wolf family, had their own individual forces.
The only one without power was Jason.
He only had 3 girls with him.
Although it could be called an adventurer’s party, it was difficult to call it a force.
Besides, in the end, it was just a mid-level adventurer’s party.
“I’ll be honest. I don’t have hundreds of strong subordinates like my brother or sister.”
“Then what can I give you?”
“Money. I will lend you money.”
“Money.”
Edgar couldn’t understand what Jason was saying.
Now he was giving money and hiring adventurers he was himself.
What he needed was a strong adventurer, not money.
“I will even hire adventurers with the money I lend. After all, isn’t it a problem because the adventurers that can be attracted from this area are already participating in the war? I will find suitable adventurers.”
“Who?”
“Superman.”
“Could it be that the Dark Lord wants to participate in the war?”
Edgar’s eyes twinkled.
A father could have stepped out for his lovely youngest son.
“No. Let’s borrow another superman instead.”
If Jason spends the right amount of money, he won’t have a hard time getting Jeffrey’s help either.
But Jason knew he would be more favored to work this out on his own than to ask his father for help.
“Who are you talking about?”
“Red dragon ball.”
Edgar drank the cold water beside him to calm his alarmed heart.
Speaking of the Red Dragon Gong, she was a woman born with dragon lineage and using the power of that blood to reach the level of a superhuman as a blood mage.
“You mean Duke Quatre?”
“Yes.”
“I heard that he gets stuck in the lab every day and doesn’t come out unless there’s something wrong?”
“Because it’s a business partnership.”
“Then how much money?”
Superhumans are extremely rare.
They gain wealth and power simply because they are superhuman.
There was no need to do other people’s work.
Therefore, the ransom of superhumans was often unknown.
‘But there’s no one in the world who doesn’t have a ransom.’
Jason had roughly calculated the amount that the Duke of Quater would allow.
“300,000 gold per day. That’s enough for the Duke to move.”
“Shit.”
Edgar cursed at Igris, something he didn’t even do when he was smirking about using an elf man as a stallion.
300,000 gold was not a child’s name.
Besides, Edgar had already spent a lot of money on this war.
300,000 gold was never an easy money to bet.
“So you didn’t say you were going to borrow it? And the price will be paid back slowly later in kind.”
“What do you want? We elves live simply and don’t have much to pay for.”
“There are a lot of slimes living in the forest, right?”
Jason’s love gel is no longer available for sale.
It has already become a necessity in the brothels of San Brunik.
The nobility of Sanburnique also purchased and used it.
Its sales increased every day.
Jason made a request to a nearby adventurer’s guild and purchased all the slime corpses from each dungeon.
However, supply was not keeping up with sales.
In addition, the adventurer’s guild was secretly raising the price of the slime corpse, as if the law of supply and demand existed here as well.
Jason didn’t want to see that.
He needed a new source of slime corpses.
“All elves are natural hunters. Also, if the environment is well established in the forest, the population of slimes will increase as much as possible, right?”
Slimes live by melting and eating dead bodies.
Likes damp and dark places.
There were plenty of places like that in the woods.
If the elves paid a little attention, slime pastures could be created here and there.
“I give you 1 gold for every 10 slimes. Wouldn’t you like to continue trading at this fixed price?”
Edgar shook his head hard.
Certainly slime was overflowing in the dark and damp forest.
Until now, it was only used to dispose of garbage, so it was a monster that was not in high demand.
Since Jason said he would buy it, the elf king had no reason to refuse.
Both were satisfactory deals.
“Great. Then make a contract. If you bring the Red Dragon, we will supply slime corpses worth 300,000 gold per day.”
“Let’s use Red Dragon Ball as notarization in the contract.”
“Of course. Then we can see Red Dragon earlier, which is better for us.”
The Elven King stepped down from his throne and even shook Jason’s hand.
If one superhuman was added to the elves army, the war was as good as won.
