I Am No King's

Chapter 153 – Persuasion pt 1

~Ukin's POV~

　

"This condition isn't good, is it?"

　

　

"Huh? Whatchu mean?"

　

　

Enlil asked me who was discussing this attack with the woman who appeared as my assistant. His body was covered in wounds, just like the others. However, for some reason, his ears could still hear my words that were almost whispering.

　

　

"I said this isn't good."

　

　

"And that's why I asked. Whatchu mean?"

　

　

The old man still asks for information.

　

　

"I don't think the one who carried out this attack was Akadia or Agade. I can confirm that."

　

　

"Huh?"

　

　

Now, it's not just Enlil who responds. Karla and Constel also commented.

　

　

"However, that weapon, which is capable of eliminating control, is only owned by Sarru, right? Following that logic, this attack was Agade's doing, right?" Karla bombarded me with questions. "Or at least, the royal intelligence led by Lugalgin."

　

　

"No. absolutely not." I reject their assumptions. "One thing you need to understand is, Sarru, or I say Lugalgin, will never give his weapon to anyone. And, if Lugalgin had been serious, he would have lost our control somehow."

　

　

Although it's not certain, but I got a rumor that Lugalgin was able to do it. Some say he made contact with certain groups to get control-busting technology. Some say I can get information outside the kingdom.

　

　

However, even though I can get that technology, there is nothing for me. Another rumor says to get that power, you have to give up your control forever. For Lugalgin who is incompetent, this is worth nothing. That me? No, thank you.

　

　

Back to Lugalgin. Right now, we have to defeat Lugalgin without making him despair. A quick and deadly attack would be much better. We think Lugalgin is a bomb. If we take a wrong step, he will destroy everything. If it works, we can tame it.

　

　

I'm not smart enough, but my instincts agree with that. We can't take any wrong steps. But the question is, are these people smart enough for this? Especially that old man. In my opinion, this old man does not have the ability to think clearly.

　

　

"So, do you think we can trust them?"

　

　

"Well, I don't know."

　

　

The woman dressed as a secretary answered me with a heavy sigh.

　

　

"If the representatives of the six pillars, perhaps. However, for the old man, I don't think so. For some reason, his hatred for Lugalgin seemed abnormal. It would be safer if we didn't include him in the alliance."

　

　

"My instincts say so too. We have to beat Lugalgin before he goes back to what he used to be."

　

　

"Yes, I agree."

　

　

If in strength, I believe Lugalgin is much stronger than when I faced him. He's not the kind of person who would walk on the spot. He also seems to be more cunning. In fact, he could use the Mariander black market easily.

　

　

However, on the other hand, he was not as ruthless as he used to be. The cold-blooded lugalgin seemed to be nowhere to be seen. Whereas in the past, where he went then there must have been a massive massacre, there was not a single living person left. But now, he seemed to be holding back. And, in my opinion, Mulisu has an involvement in this.

　

　

"Not putting that grandfather in the alliance. We're just gonna ignore it?"

　

　

"Yes" the woman replied. "We had enough communication with the two women. We can ignore that grandpa."

　

　

"Good, Mai–"

　

　

"Eitz!"

　

　

I have not finished speaking, this woman has placed her index finger on my lips.

　

　

"You're a habit. I told you not to call my name in public."

　

　

"Ahaha, sorry."

~Lugalgin's POV~

　

After hearing my declaration, inadvertently, Shu En and Marlien jumped, away from me. In fact, Marlien to the point of throwing a control-busting weapon and taking a few knives from inside his pants. He held one knife and the rest floated.

　

　

"Finally," Jin responded with applause. "So, in how many years have I hired Sarru or Lugalgin?"

　

　

"In the last three years, I fought using the name of a new saru once. So, all this time, I was working as Lugalgin. Trouble?"

　

　

"Ah, no. There's no problem. I also do not dispute your secret as Sarru if you have confessed. And lai, in the beginning, I also kept my identity a secret as the leader of Guan, right?"

　

　

　

　

"Yes, we're even."

　

　

Jin and I continued the conversation as if my identity as Sarru was trivial. On the other hand, Ibla was still kneeling, Shu En was still keeping his distance, Marlien was still on standby with his knife.

　

　

Genie is not the type who likes to dispute something as long as it does not bring problems. However, if it brings trouble for him, you will not be forgiven. If you want to be forgiven, you must break your own legs.

　

　

Ok, I can't let things go like this.

　

　

"Jin, I take care of them first, yeah."

　

　

"okay."

　

　

I walked towards Shu En. He was the first person I had to convince. Ah, before that.

　

　

"Ibla, you can stand."

　

　

"Thank you,"

　

　

Ibla followed my words and stood up. On the other hand, Shu En was still keeping his distance from me. When I took one step forward, he took two steps back.

　

　

"Huh, Shu En, may I know why you're keeping your distance from me?"

　

　

"Because of you Sarru. Why else?"

　

　

"That's exactly what I asked. Is my identity as Sarru that important?"

　

　

"You are the leader of one of the six pillars! Of course it matters! How could the leader of a black market organization be the intelligence that he had been waiting for," Shu En paused for a moment, his eyes wide open. "So that's your goal. You want to be intelligence to be the main controller of the black market."

　

　

I paused for a moment. Again, I breathe. I became the chief intelligence officer of the kingdom to control the black market? Just be right.

　

　

"Shu En, did you forget that the one who appointed me head of royal intelligence was Fahren? In fact, you're one of the few people who knows what Fahren really wants from me."

　

　

Shu En was silent. His face became sour after hearing my words.

　

　

"Good afternoon. Nice to meet you, Mr. Jin. My name is Ibla, one of Lugalgin's men."

　

　

"Ah, good afternoon. No need sir. Just call me Jin. I was Lugalgin's co-worker since..... two and a half years ago? Well, that's about."

　

　

While I was trying to have a serious talk with Shu En, Ibla and Jin were instead talking casually behind my back.

　

　

You guys can't read the atmosphere a little bit what? Or maybe you are intentionally? I just ignore them.

　

　

"Shu En, one of the reasons Fahren wanted me to take the position of head of intelligence was because I was from the black market. If I come from the black market, he thinks I can hit the black market more easily. Thus, stabilizing this kingdom again."

　

　

Well, even though I made this kingdom unstable anyway. However, I won't discuss it this time.

　

　

Shu En has yet to show any signs of softening. He's still wary of me. All right, then, it's time for the ultimate weapon.

　

　

"Shu En, if you and the people who signed the letter want me to resign, just say so. It means nothing if no one wants me here, right? Instead of spending time on intelligence, I'd rather be quiet, relax at home."

　

　

Seriate
