I Am No King's

Chapter 135 – Enter Intelligence School?

[So, how's your sister?]

　

"I should have asked. Do you know?"

　

[Of course. The one that provides the aluminum cable and the peg is the mother.]

　

I could only pat the eel hearing Mom's answer.

　

Now, in the dining room, Ninlil is enjoying breakfast with Inanna, Emir, and Shinar. In the meantime, I went back to my room and called my mother to find information.

　

Yeah, I'm done with breakfast. As usual, I ate fast.

　

"Why did you do this?"

　

[Honestly, according to mom, sooner or later she will get involved with this. I mean, he's the future leader of the Alhold family. Plus, her mother and sister are the founders of a large black market organization.]

　

I can't give a rebuttal or an answer. Mom's right. Sooner or later, Ninlil will definitely get involved with this all. Not only his mother and brother, the Alhold family also had a black market organization. You could say, Ninlil plunged into the black market just a matter of time.

　

In the depths of my heart, actually, I already knew this. However, it seems, I have not been able to take it well.

　

"Then did you send Ninlil last night?"

　

[Yes, of course. Like the instincts and instincts of mothers who immediately recognize you even though you use a mask, I'm sure you can recognize Ninlil quickly.]

　

"So, indirectly, I want to say that Ninlil's decision to jump on the black market is in my hands?"

　

[Huh.] Mother sighed. [Gin, even though the mother who gave birth to Ninlil, the one who really raised her is you. Therefore, according to the mother, you MORE have the right to support or oppose Ninlil's decision.]

　

I didn't expect Mom to say that at all. When I heard it, my body felt heavy. I sat on the bed and rubbed my face.

　

The responsibility that I now carry feels so heavy. In fact, I have borne the lives of members of Agade, Emir, Inanna, Consort Filial, and Ninshubur. However, for some reason, this time the responsibility felt so great. I don't know.

　

Is it because Ninlil is my younger brother? Nah! My father is also my real father, but I don't really care about him.

　

[I'm sorry, Gin. But he listened to you more.]

　

"Mom doesn't have to apologize. Mom's decision was right." I was silent for a moment, breathing out. "I want you to be honest. Did mom allow Ninlil to go down on the black market?"

　

[Honestly, my mother was confused too. On the one hand, as her mother, mother did not want her to see and plunge into the black market. But on the other hand, I am worried. If not foray into the black market, Ninlil would be an easy target. Look Akadia! There is no success in this world that can be achieved without plunging into the black market. If you don't jump into the black market, you can only be an ordinary employee with a mediocre salary. I'm worried Ninlil's life will be dictated by someone else.]

　

Ah, umm, ma'am, being an ordinary employee with a mediocre salary is my wish. However, I won't mention it.

　

On the other hand, mother's speech is not excessive. Everything my mother said was a fact. If you do not jump into the black market, opponents can destroy and inhibit the company or business that we start very easily. The opponent just enough spread ugly rumors. Without plunging into the black market, the person would never be able to fight the ugly rumors being circulated.

　

"Once again, clarification. So, because I was confused, I entrusted Ninlil to the black market to me. Right so?"

　

[Yes, right.]

　

"Huh.." I sighed, again. "alright. Let me try. However, the final decision remained in Ninlil. I'm not gonna force it."

　

[Yes, that's enough.]

　

"Dan–"

　

[Don't worry. Ninshubur is now in school. I've also sent some of the best people from Akadia to look after him from a distance. She's secure. Make sure of that.]

　

I smile. "Thank you, mother."

　

We also ended the call.

　

Alright. Now, what am I supposed to do? I didn't expect Ninlil to jump into the black market. At least not so fast.

　

Not just a confused mother. I'm confused too. On the one hand I want to respect Ninlil's decision. However, on the other hand, as an older brother and the one who had raised him, I did not want him to see the ugliness of this kingdom.

　

Is this the feeling of a father when it comes to releasing a child into the world? No. gabe. No. gabe. Ninlil is just my brother, not my son. But..... What am I supposed to do?

　

Uh! Nevermind! Just thought it wouldn't produce anything. Time to talk to Ninlil.

　

I went down to the first floor. In the main room, Ninlil, Emir, and Inanna had a casual conversation. I don't see Shinar anywhere. Apparently, she had already gone home to take a shower, preparing before going to the office.

　

"Ah, Gin."

　

Ninlil straightened his back when the Emir called out to me.

　

I sat on that couch for one person. In front of me, Ninlil sat flanked by Emir and Inanna.

　

　

"I, that...."

　

Ninlil. He looked to Inanna and the Emir in turn. He only got a smile and a nod in return, without a word.

　

I wonder what they were talking about when I was upstairs.

　

"Sister, I want to join Agade."

　

"Rejected!"

　

"Eh?"

　

I reflexively gave a lightning-fast reply, as if all parts of my body were ready and agreed to reject Ninlil's request. In fact, I had absolutely no idea what he was going to say.

　

Ahh.. I massaged my forehead slowly. My head hurts.

　

"Ke, why was it rejected?"

　

"Before you ask me why I was rejected, give me a reason why I should accept you. Think of it like an interview when you apply for a job. And, Inanna, Emir, I want you not to help her."

　

"Yes, we're not going to help Ninlil anyway."

　

"We believe him."

　

Inanna and Emir answered alternately with a smile.

　

Are you on my side or Ninlil's side? If you look at the conditions, it seems that you are on Ninlil's side anyway.

　

"With my control, aluminum, which is special, I believe it can be useful for Agade."

　

"I don't care about your control. Did you know that the number two person in the Agade only has copper control? Then, there are also those who are only iron controllers. If you say special, there are our members who are much more specialized with nitrogen control. Your control means nothing to us. So, give me another reason why I should accept you."

　

In fact, Ninlil only spoke one sentence, but I replied to him repeatedly.

　

Hearing my answer, Ninlil gasped. His eyes are no longer focused on me. Now, Ninlil's view moved around aimlessly. Both of his hands were holding his pants. She's panicking.

　

"Ah.. uh.. that's..."

　

Honestly, I don't think I can bear to see a panicked Ninlil like this. However, I can't let him join Agade just like that. We were not an organization yesterday afternoon. We are one of the six pillars. If one steps wrong, Ninlil could be killed.

　

On the other hand, I also have other concerns. If I don't get him in Agade, I'm afraid he'll be looking for another black market organization. Or even a vigilante. If he took one of the two options, his security would be even more threatened.

　

Uhh. Totally confused. What am I supposed to do?

　

I looked to the Emir and Inanna for cues or omens or whatever. But I didn't get it. They just closed their mouths with shaky shoulders, holding back laughter.

　

Did they laugh to see me panicked and confused for the first time? Coulda. Nah! I'm sure they laughed because of it, seeing people who had been full of plans and calculations panicked.

　

"What if I take the intelligence school entrance exam? If my abilities are worthy of A class, I want to be allowed to join Agade."

　

"...severately. How do you know there's an intelligence school entrance exam?"

　

Seriate
