~Unknown's POV~
"Lugalgin is Sarru?"
Without realizing it, I had already said that sentence. Not just me, everyone in this room is saying the same thing. No exception to the people we brought.
"Do you believe that rumor? Let me tell you something." Ukin gave an explanation. "Lugalgin and Sarru used the coffin as a weapon box. They both use different types of weapons. And most importantly, they never use control."
"Wait a minute!" Karla interrupted. "Sarru is an incompetent?"
"You don't know? Uh..." Ukin opened his mouth for a moment. "Yes, yeah. I-i understand. All this time, the person who confronted Sarru must have been killed. Plus, we were also taught by Lacuna not to rely too much on controlling. So, yeah. I forget. Ahahaha."
Ukin said all that lightly and casually, as if he did not care about the information he had just given.
On the other hand, for us, at least representatives of Apollo and Orion, this information is very important. So, the rumor that Lugalgin was a student of Lacuna is true. However, the rumor that Sarru was a student of Lugalgin was false.
If you think carefully, it should be, the conclusion of the information circulating refers to it. However, inexplicably, the rumors that circulated actually stated Sarru was a student of Lugalgin. Does this mean there are people who organize the spread of these rumors?
Even if someone organized the spread of rumors and information, the only person who came to mind was Lugalgin. He definitely did not want his identity to be known to others. I understand because I myself am wearing a face mask made of silicone.
"Huh? So the Kingdom's intelligence chief is the leader of one of the six pillars? If His Majesty the King finds out about this, it's over his career in state intelligence."
"Hahaha, it's quite ironic that I say, '" Ukin responded. "You nobles who now oppose Lugalgin, have power and position, thanks to Lugalgin. No. gabe. Not just nobles. In fact, the black market organization is able to rule this kingdom, there is no change of position on the six pillars, and also many other things that benefit the black market, is thanks to Lugalgin."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"You still don't understand? Or do you refuse to understand? Now, I'm asking back. What incident had destroyed the intelligence of this kingdom, then the Azzaha family took over which made it a means of seeking rank? On the black market, the destruction of intelligence leaves you free, unfettered monthly quotas again."
The incident that made all of that happen was 1, the tragedy of the Cleinhad family. When the Cleinhad family was slaughtered, it all happened in a row. Wait up! What this means–
"Yes" Ukin said. "Lugalgin, alone, was the culprit behind the Cleinhad family massacre, which caused all of you to be here. So, it's ironic that you're hostile to someone who has done you a lot."
If Ukin's words were true, this could explain why Akadia would accept Lugalgin's offer so quickly. Likely, Akadia was inedible with rumors and drew the conclusion that Lugalgin was Sarru. Perhaps they realized it was unwise to make the person who slaughtered the Cleinhad family alone an enemy.
Is this also what makes Quetzal and Guan still have not made a decision? Do they know this too? Might as well. However, they may not know it and only worry.
On the other hand, this man, Ukin, was a wild card. He can turn around and mess things up that already exist. And, trouble is, I still don't know Ukin's motive for joining this alliance. Did he just want to mess up the alliance? Or did he really want to fight Lugalgin? Or does he have another reason?
"Because of that, if you want to attack one of the organizations, I suggest Agade, not Akadia. Well, even though I can't guarantee you guys can win anyway."
"Ukin" Karla comes in. "Based on the information you provided, and the way you spoke, was Lugalgin really that powerful?"
"He's very clever. He will justify any means to be able to win. The strategy he devised could break all obstacles before him. So, actually, he's not strong, just sneaky. There's a reason he carries a lot of guns. It was the impression I had when I first met him."
Back then?
"However, after a year or two with him, it turns out he's not that simple. Honestly, I don't count how many times I've practiced fighting it. And, in all that practice, he never once seemed desperate. A smile always spread on his face.
"I've never seen him grit his teeth. The most desperate expression he ever showed was flat, expressionless."
"So" Enlil interrupted. "Do you have a solution? Do you have a way to beat him?"
When Enlil asked, Ukin immediately stopped the story. He scratched his head and leaned his back against the chair. It seemed, Enlil also did not have a solution.
"I don't care what he's done or what your relationship has been in the past. I just want the incompetent dead, period!"
In contrast to the other three parties here, Enlil had not benefited at all from the demise of the Cleinhad family. Quite the contrary. The death of the Cleinhad family made the Alhold family unable to sell its untalented children at a high price. They only get low prices.
"How about we take her mother and sister hostage?"
"NO!" Karla and I answered quickly and decisively, rejecting the noble's suggestion.
Acknowledge not to have guessed that we'd be that compact. Our eyes met for a moment and then smiled.
I, as a mother, did not want that to happen to me at all. Therefore, I will not use that way on anyone else. And, perhaps, Karla has the same mindset.
"I agree with these two mothers. Taking Lugalgin's mother and sister hostage is a very, very bad idea." Ukin. "Why do you think he killed the Cleinhad family? The answer may be only 1. Cleinhad sold one he knew. Just because of this, one of the most large and influential families in the Bana'an Kingdom was slaughtered.
"If you take your mother and sister hostage, which you will definitely not let go of, I am sure that the entire noble family behind you will be killed. Not only the noble families, Apollo and Orion would also be targeted for being allied with these nobles. In other words, everyone in this room, along with family and relatives, will be killed by Lugalgin."
I didn't disallow Ukin's words. If that happens to my family, I will do the same. There is no mercy for people who mess with my family.
"Then, what should we do? From then on, you just said this Lugalgin, that Lugalgin. I need a solution! I want the incompetent dead!"
