The Hero

Chapter 339 That Is Not Intended to Be Given

Renly was thinking about what Javier would do.

'Why did he throw away all his profits for this so-called 'patriotism?

'Is there any point in being patriotic?

'I don't think so. I am a stateless person, so I can do whatever I want without having to worry about being restrained. 'Plus, without the shackles of my homeland, I am free as a bird and can live as I please.

'Why do I need a mother earth? Does it matter?

'Take Kerseys, for example. Other families had already chosen to flee during the 19th century, but they chose to invest their money. Even though they had indeed contributed to his country, what did they get in return?

'If they chose to flee at that time, the white man probably would not dare to offend them at this moment.

'In fact, our family's status as the strongest might start to falter because Kerseys, who is purely a family of businessmen, has huge financial reserves.

'But right now, they still have not learned from making losses and still insist on being patriots.'

In the end, Renly does not understand why Javier became a patriot and the reason behind his actions. In fact, he even wondered if Javier was really stupid.

“This is exactly the same as humans who believe in Jesus, Buddha, or other gods.If their religion is useful, why should humans still have to work hard in their lives?"

'In fact, there was this one time I actually slapped a devout believer with money, telling him that he would rather worship me than his god. If he chooses to worship me, I offer to pay him 150 thousand dollars immediately, but his god will not be able to do so.

'In the end, people believed it was completely unaffected. I then offered him 300 thousand dollars in exchange and had my men bring cash. 'People believe it still refuses to accept me, so I keep raising it to 600 thousand dollars.

'Then it was 1.2 million dollars, 2.4 million dollars. 'When I offered to give him 4.8 million dollars, the originally devout believer finally chose to worship me instead.

'His god never gave him a penny, but I would give him 4.8 million dollars.

'Because of that, I found the truth…

Religion is completely useless.

These so-called believers are only faithful because they have not been paid enough to betray their religion…'

Renly was smoking a cigar while contemplating, while Yoel remained groveling on the ground the entire time.

Only after Renly finished with his cigar did he turn to look at Joel.

“You're worried now that you've rejected Javier, he'll come after you. Therefore, you have chosen to come and get my help in hopes of being able to ally with me. In the end, you'll even beg to be my pet dog in the hope that I can relive your chances at the family leader position once again, right?"

Yoel's heart instantly “melesak”, completely confused why Javier and Renly had the same thought.

'How can they think of exactly the same thing in an instant while I can't!?

'Javier said exactly the same thing a moment ago, and now Renly said it again…'

Yoel felt a little afraid of Javier and Renly. Therefore, she decided to show Renly her original side.

He put his face on the ground and closed his eyes.

“Yes, right, Mr. White, that's what I think. Please, you're my only hope now! If I'm lucky enough to be able to accept all of that, I'm willing to be an obedient dog by your side forever!"

After all, being a dog or a henchman of someone else was the final game that Joel had set for himself mentally.

Although it was extremely embarrassing, he was willing to accept this fate should it befall him.

Renly sat in her chair and looked at the blue sky, enjoying the clear breeze.

“Why are you doing all this? Why would a descendant of the Hachison family bow so low and ask to be my dog? Plus, you even consider it a blessing. If you were on Javier's side, you would've been his dog."

Right after Renly said this, Yoel gritted his teeth and replied, “That's not a blessing. I will dig my own grave if I stay by his side because I will fight you, against los blancos! I don't want to die. I still want to be the next Hachison family leader!”

Renly suddenly laughed out loud.

"Although I know that you're just being respectful, and you might not really think so, I'm indeed quite happy with what I just heard."

"Eat! Feed!"

Although there were no dogs around the area, there was indeed the sound of dog barking. Besides, it started when Renly said that. Yoel was the one who made that voice without the slightest bit of hesitation. Renly's laughter became more and more sincere.

“You have no pride at all, you shameless man!

“Then again, this is a pretty good thing. Those who hold fast to their egos will find it very difficult to be successful. That ego will eventually become a hindrance. Only by discarding that ego will they become flexible in life and succeed very quickly with the greatest possible strength.

“I have high hopes for you, Yoel. Now go, the next family leader of the Hachison family.”

After throwing away everything he called ego, Yoel knelt down, begged, and barked before he succeeded.

Joel now manages to get Renly's recognition and promises that he will be appointed as the next leader of the Hachison family.

“Thank you, Mr White! Thank you very much!" After bowing once more, Joel got up and raised his head.

He then walked away with his forehead covered in soil.

His face was filled with excitement because he had placed his chips on the right person.

' Thanks to Javier and his stupidity, he showed me the right path I had to take. With Renly's promise, I'm sure I'll be the next family leader!'

Meanwhile, Renly revealed a mocking smile as she watched Yoel leave, her footsteps excited.

"What's the point of living if someone isn't as shameless as him?"This was the opposite of what Renly had just said to Yoel.

However, he would not tell this to Joel. Instead, he let the foolish man remain happy for now.

'At the very least, I can still make a little trouble for Javier through this fool...'

At the same time, Javier, Yuri, and Herschel get together, having lunch at a restaurant serving their local cuisine.

At that moment, Yuri's phone rang. After waking up and asking for an excuse, Yuri answered her phone on the side.

A moment later, Yuri returned to Javier's side.

"Trs. Kersey, we've received intel from the woman we sent after Yoel. Yoel went to Waver Beach House and stayed there for more than 10 minutes. But he couldn't follow her inside because it was guarded.

“So, we don't know who Yoel met there and what was said. However, she reported that Yoel looked very happy when she left.”

Javier smiles. "Aren't we able to figure out who he met with with one phone call?"

After gesturing for Yuri to call a number, Javier took over his phone.

"Yoel, are you really not worried that I will kill you for going to see Renly right after you leave my place?"

A heavy voice sounded from the other end of the phone. Evidently, it was Yoel's voice, and he looked a little panicked and had no idea what he should do.

After a while, Yoel still said, “Mr. Kersey, please understand. I'm just someone stuck in the middle who's just trying to survive."

Yoel's voice had changed from respectful before to casual. It was surprising how one tone could tell so many things.

Javier accidentally put the phone next to him as he continued eating it.

Half a minute later, he hung up. While hanging up the phone, he even turned the phone around with the screen face down to the table.

Herschel asked, "What message do you want to send, boss?"

Javier replied, “I gave him the false impression that I was angry but powerless to do anything at the moment. In the end, I became so angry that I even slammed the phone.”

Herschel. “Can you send so many messages from such a simple action? That's actually ineffective, right?”

Javier laughed out loud. “Let's try our luck. Who knows? We might even do it right!
