Chapter 31: XXXI. Reach the Sky代
"The Emperor must be a singer," Liszt said while smoking. Since the East Coast was far from the Emperor’s reach, it didn’t spook people there like in the inland areas, and one could say whatever they liked, "I admit the Emperor is powerful, but if I were to pledge allegiance to the Beima Xiaochaijin and take his place, then advance to become the King of Beima, send Shadi to seduce his daughter, and just wait for him to die of old age, then Shadi would naturally take over. After that, I kill Shadi and become the ruler of Aran. How would the Emperor deal with that?"
"What a splendid idea."
Shadi had nothing to say and rolled his eyes.
"To actually... make such a feminine gesture," Wolman was shocked and added, "Nowadays, women aren’t into the tough-guy sentimentality. They admire your androgynous vibe—you’re like a fitness trainer, rapper, ex-military drill instructor turned barbecue shop owner who doesn’t smoke traditional cigarettes and is a fan of ’Genshin Impact’."
"You’ve taken all the benefits, haven’t you? The floral language for a steel wool pad is, ’endurance and wealth.’"
Rein pitched in.
"Wait a minute!" Mika spotted a loophole, "This plan seems to not require you to be a king at all. It completely doesn’t make sense; as soon as Shadi launches an attack, the Aran Empire would simply be destroyed."
"Heh heh..."
Shadi sneered, his forehead throbbing with veins.
Liszt was deeply shocked but spoke seriously, "As a captain, I order you to go now and seduce the Emperor’s daughter. I will allocate thirty Golden Dragons from the public funds for travel expenses, skincare products, hotel charges, and a tenfold Kaioken training fee in the brothel with real experience, Black Sail just needs to wait in Heaven Port for the Emperor to die of natural causes, then we can conquer the Western Continent!"
"Shocked. Is there really such a place as a Hyperbolic Time Chamber brothel? What kind of training is that!"
