Chapter 329 321: Whose Bitch?



The ceremony continued. The others with me were all given medals as a way to celebrate their contribution in the entire event including Albert and Lethe. Of course, Anatolia, Albert, and Lethe were given ranks that couldn't compare to the others.

Biased bitches.

It all concluded on a high note by following with a banquet. The two Fonias twins were not allowed public appearance but were working hard to ensure that they could continue the Fonias name as one of righteousness and not of crime.

Well, I had many different reasons for letting them get medals.

But more important was to set things straight with a few new powerful folks in this country.

While the party continued, I slowly walked over to the Marquis and the Margrave—ah, the two dukes and patted their shoulders.

"A minute, FATHER?"

The Duke of Hall stiffened up.

"What is it?"

"Follow me, bring the other duke too."

The duke gulped and whispered into the ears of Me Lon Mirxa. With the two of them on my tail, I made my way away from the golden lights of the grand chamber and walked into a passageway away from he banquet hall.

A few butlers saw me but they didn't question anything. They simply moved away and let us go our way. After a short walk, we finally found ourselves in front of a room in the far end of the castle.

This place was a meeting room prepared for use during busy banquets like this, and now I was to use them.

"What is this about, little count?"

Me Lon Mirxa asked. I didn't say a word and simply continued treading my way.

The door was pushed open.

With a simple snap of my fingers, the candles around were lit ablaze with fire magic.

I pulled back a chair at the head of the table and sat down.

Slowly, I pointed the way for the other two.

They both laughed.

"Your son is ambitious, Hall."

"So he is, Mirxa. I bet he'll be achieving all his ambitions as well."

Aw they thought I was acting out and wanted more power.

I appreciated the support from my father though.

"Sit."

The two smiled and pulled back chairs.

"Congratulations," I muttered, crossing my legs. It would make some good time for a drink, but I passed it on for now. "You now have the king of this country in your hands, and have become two of the only three duke houses in the kingdom. It is not a stretch to say the entirety of Schwarz is your bitch till Hoya succeeds."

"BWAHAAHAH!" Me Lon laughed. "You are user some interesting words, kid."

"That said," the Duke leaned ahead and spoke, a slight grin on his face. "You do realize you're talking to those very two with all that haughtiness, right?"

They then looked at each other.

"How cute Eugy, they think they're going to teach you a lesson."

I was having a hard time holding in my laughter.

"You may have killed the Lord of Fonias, Eugene Hall Apollon, but what worth is that?"

"If you headed this entire thing you should have claimed the credits," said Ban Ket. "You could have easily beheaded Fonias and taken his spot if that's what you were going for. Bringing everything to the public and then getting others promoted was a bad move."

"The world isn't as kind as you are, child. It is unfortunate, but you hold no power here." Said Mirxa as he snatched the bottle of whiskey.

"Why don't we start by uncrossing those legs and sitting straight in front of your father, son?" demanded Hall while crossing his own legs.

I couldn't hold back anymore.

"Pfft."

The two of them looked at me weird.

"HAhahahaah!" I laughed.

"BWAHAAHAH!" Mirxa laughed too.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" And so did Hall.

The cacophony of laughter filled the small meeting room as we all went at it without any second thoughts. Our laughs growing louder and louder by the second.

These two were in a mood to celebrate! They were playing around!

"Hahahah—"

I stopped laughing at once.

My presence filled the air and urged the two dukes to shut up as well.

Leaning back with my legs crossed, I snapped my fingers and pulled out a small bottle of whiskey.

It would be good to see them acting like idiots.

"You're drinking a lot these days, bad Eugy."

I placed the bottle down and looked at the two.

"What is it?" Hall asked.

I tapped the table and snapped my fingers again as two more documents fell from the spatial dimension.

In it were complete highlights of what I knew about them. Dirt. Pure unbridled dirt. From faked confessions from Fonias, possession of eyewitness and the topics of continued business.

"Me Lon Mirxa."

The man looked at me.

I didn't bother referring to his title.

"People in your territory have supplied the most of the ingredients needed for the drug trade that I bust for you, if you remember? Well, those guys are alive and kicking…"

I leaned ahead.

"And the ones who used and made the drugs, are all in my possession."

Me Lon shuddered.

"Do I need to remind you, of who exactly made those drugs?"

"D-demons…?"

I nodded with a bright smile and leaned back.

"Pray tell, what will happen if the newly appointed Duke was found having demon supporters in his territory? Backed with undeniable proof, which is the admission of the demons themselves?"

Me Lon Mirxa stopped in his tracks.

"Y-you're threatening me, brat?"

"Am I?"

My eyes then turned toward my father.

"H-ha! I have never had demons near me—"

Your literal son was housing demons man.

Hall was a little smarter as she shut up and kept his eyes low, aware that I had something on him too.

With a snap of my fingers, two more documents plopped down.

And that wasn't all.

With another snap of my fingers, teeth and eyes emerged in the shadow of the room.

"Recognize this, father?"

Ban Ket Hall gulped.

"It's the Shadow Ender from the dungeon…"

"Guess where I got it from, just guess it."

"F-fonias…?"

"HAHAHAHA!"

Though I laughed again.

Neither of those two could follow along.

"Whose bitch is this entire country again?"

The two didn't have an answer.

Mirxa slowly placed the bottle of whiskey back toward me, and Hall uncrossed his legs.

I continued laughing in the room. The event had come a spectacular end.
