I Am No King's

Chapter 87 – War Declaration Letter

"Ah, yes, please come in."

　

Mario came in and gave me a map. In the map, there are two letters that require my signature.

　

This letter is a warning letter to all those who do not sign a loyalty letter. This letter says that if they do not declare allegiance to me, within a month they will be released and banned from doing all things related to Bana'an intelligence. And, of course, all salaries and benefits they and their families receive will be terminated.

　

Two months after they were released, if they still did not want to declare their allegiance, they would be stopped as intelligence.

　

Termination as intelligence is not something that can be underestimated. The span of time they go through while serving as agents will be considered as either empty, or unemployed. So, if anyone had been an agent for 10 years, he would have been considered unemployed for 10 years.

　

The kingdom will not acknowledge the man's devotion because he is dishonorably stopped. And, since Bana'an intelligence is spread across all elements of society, as well as corporations, this dishonorably dismissal will prevent them from getting jobs. More precisely, it was the kingdom's intelligence that prevented them from getting jobs.

　

When this happens, the only path these agents can take is to turn to the black market. And, when that happened, he would officially become an enemy of the kingdom. At that time, I could kill him without breaking my agreement because he was no longer an agent.

　

The concept of stopping and cornering this agent is not only applied in Bana'an. Other governments and countries also apply this concept if any agent is proven to be a traitor.

　

Therefore, accepting a job as intelligence is like a double-edged sword. On the one hand, all your life and needs, even to the tertiary ones, will surely be fulfilled by the Kingdom and the State. However, if you betray or appear corrupt, only suffering awaits.

　

Yes, even though those nobles will be cornered because of something else anyway.

　

I signed two letters and returned one to Mario. One other sheet I hold as an archive.

　

"I want this letter to reach them all this week, which means four days left including Sunday. Are you willing?"

　

Because this document should not be emailed, to avoid hacking, the scan results are only sent via flash drives that are escorted by other agents. So, it will be difficult to spread this letter in a short time. However, I don't see that doubt in Mario's face.

　

"For the domestic ones, tomorrow the day after tomorrow can certainly reach them. For overseas, some Saturdays, some Sundays."

　

I smile. "Good."

　

Mario left the room.

　

"What is gin?" Shu En asked.

　

"Do you see?"

　

I gave the letter I signed to Ufia, which was channeled to Jeanne and then to Shu En.

　

You guys just gave the letter to Shu En without reading it? Are you not curious about the contents.

　

"Hoo, you gave them a deadline huh."

　

"Yes, that's right." I responded Shu En. "I don't want to prolong this. Three months was the deadline for their disobedience problem. Although I think three months is too long."

　

"Let me guess," Mulisu came in. "It is certain that those who do not profess loyalty and obedience to Lugalgin until the deadline is up, they will be dismissed, right?"

　

"Yes, that's right." Shu En responded to Mulisu lightly.

　

"But isn't that free?" Let's respond.

　

"Eh?" Mulisu and Shu En responded simultaneously.

　

"Those who do not obey the average noble. Will it have an effect? I mean, despite not having a job, the treasures of their families are still abundant, right? Moreover, ka-Lugalgin is hated by nobles. So, I don't think that's gonna deter them."

　

"You're right" Simurrum responded.

　

"But wrong," Uru'a added.

　

Simurrum, Uru'a, why do you say that? You think you're twins?

　

"Eh? Meanin?"

　

"Look, let me explain," Shu En took over. "For people like them, finances are not the main problem. They have another thing that Lugalgin will trample on if dishonorably dismissed, namely their pride as nobles.”

　

Shu continued, "they will probably calm down if the one to dismiss is His Majesty the King. However, if the one who laid off was Lugalgin, the commoner who was supposed to be below, they would feel his pride as a noble had been stepped on, trampled on, even spat on. And, there's no way they're gonna keep quiet."

　

"Ohhh, that's it."

　

Conceptually, Shu En's explanation is not wrong. However, the election he said, especially on the part of being trampled, stepped over, and spat on, is it not too excessive? You say it like I'm the bad guy here.

　

"However, with the letter," Ufia threw a glance at me. "Lugalgin, you're like declaring war on disobedient people."

　

***

　

The night came and we went home. However, when he arrived home, there was something really troublesome going on.

　

Right at the door of the house, inside the courtyard, were seen several people bound in a fainting condition. Their bonding is simple, using cable ties in the thumb.

　

This binding style is very familiar to me.

　

　

While I was making a call through a smartphone, the Emir was poking around with those people. On the other hand, Inanna did not care and went straight into the house.

　

"Gin, I'll prepare dinner. Emir, help me."

　

"okay."

　

"Yes, thank you, Inanna, Emir."

　

Finally, after a few rings, my phone connected.

　

[Yes, Lugalgin, what's wrong?]

　

"Ibla, can you please not throw garbage in front of people's houses?"

　

[Ah, sorry. I haven't had time to bring the trash after cleaning your yard. That was too much rubbish. I'll take it later. Leave it in front of the house.]

　

Ah, so they're in the yard huh? I was surprised no one tried to enter. If they go in and are killed by a trap, my job will be much easier. I mean, it's not my fault they were killed by a trap I set up to dispel criminals.

　

I stepped over these fainted people and walked into the house. As Ibla said, he'll take it later.

　

[By the way, Gin, before you close, I want to report something.]

　

"Something?"

　

I took off my jacket and put it on the sofa. Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Inanna and Emir were preparing dinner.

　

[So, we've found an organization that goes by the name Agade.]

　

"Then, what do you want?"

　

[Lugalgin, I know that you don't care about the Agade name that other organizations use. To you, Agade is just a name. And we try our best not to care. Unfortunately, we cannot.]

　

"Okay, explain."

　

While waiting for dinner to be ready, I listened to Ibla's story. Basically, they thought Agade's name was a gift from me to them. When there were others who used the name Agade just like that, they were actually angry and wanted to immediately subdue those people. However, they held back.

　

They think Agade's name has no meaning as long as they can be useful to me. However, even though logic had already accepted it, their feelings could not. They absolutely did not accept anyone else using the name Agade without permission. Especially people they don't know.

　

"So, you want to subdue this fake Agade and reclaim the name Agade?"

　

[We don't really want to claim Agade's name or reuse it. We just don't want the name Agade used by anyone else. That'sallthatis. I mean, it's your gift. We don't want anyone to take it for granted.]

　

My gift and not wanting anyone else to take it for granted, yeah.

　

When I heard this sentence, I became a little speechless, remembering when others said the same thing to me.

　

Ever since dealing with Fahren, I've been reminded of those times. There are so many things that remind me of those memories. Am I getting sentiments? Could be.

　

"All right, I'll allow it."

　

[Really? Thank you, Lugalgin.]

　

"But I want to come too, taking Inanna and the Emir with me. I want to show them how you, or maybe we, fight when you're serious."

　

Seriate
