The power structure in the eight provinces of Seraphis was chaotic and disordered, with each faction not only vying for control but also wary of being conquered by the other factions. However, they surprisingly united against foreign powers like Montiria, Druira, and Cathay.
No matter what forces or armed troops from other countries were deployed to invade Seraphis, they would inevitably face intense resistance from all sides. This was also the reason Gadel was wary.
Dealing with the Keller Family was easy, but if they were to face a joint attack from the Durham Family or other powerful factions, Gadel dared not say that favonovel.com could withstand it completely. Moreover, despite the chaos in Seraphis, it was officially considered Cathay’s territory.
If a large-scale mobilization of armed forces was carried out, it could potentially cause dissatisfaction from Cathay.
After Prince Gadel’s explanation, Matthew suddenly understood. “Your Highness, do you mean to say that you want me to take action?”
Gadel nodded lightly. “Within Seraphis, my influence has its limits… So, I need to trouble you, Mr. Larson, with this matter. Of course, in terms of resources, feel free to let me know what you need. As long as l have it, I will satisfy your request.”
Matthew smiled bitterly. “Your Highness, you’re not being fair with this…”
Gadel looked helpless. “There’s no other way. That’s just how the game is played, and even I have to abide by the rules. Besides, you know that I already have a mole within my subordinates, so I’m already struggling to manage things. If anything unexpected happens again, I might lose everything…”
Although the attack this time was led by the Keller Family, it was obvious that there must be members of the royal family behind the scenes. Otherwise, no one else would have the ability to infiltrate Gadel’s forces.
Matthew had some suspicions about this, but it was the royal family’s business and had little to do with him. “Alright, I will prepare a list of what I need and give it to Lilia or Tyga… When I’m ready to take action, I will send a signal to Your Highness.”
“I understand. I will have my people cooperate with you when the time comes, Mr. Larson.”
“Very well, Your Highness. Do remember that you owe me two favors and would have to repay them to me in the future…”
Gadel could only shake his head and look at Matthew with a mischievous smile. “Mr. Larson, it’s a shame that you’re not a cunning merchant…”
There had always been an ongoing conflict between the Keller Family and Matthew. Now that the Keller Family was going to be wiped out, Prince Gadel still owed Matthew a favor.
This situation was quite complicated. However, there was no other choice. After all, Gadel’s forces dared not enter Seraphis on a large scale.
If they wanted to quickly annihilate the Keller Family, they could only let Matthew Larson, the so-called “illegitimate child” of the Seraphis Graham Family, handle it.
After hearing Prince Gadel’s joke, Matthew pretended to ponder for a moment and then nodded in agreement. “Your Highness, that suggestion is not bad. If I can’t make it in the future, I will consider becoming a cunning merchant…”
With the playful banter between the two, the plan to annihilate the Keller Family slowly took shape.
***
On another side…
Inside the grand mansion of the Keller Family in Seraphis,
Worman Keller had no idea that his doom was approaching. He anxiously awaited the outcome of the front-line fighters’ actions.
“Hasn’t any news come from there yet?”
Louis Keller, standing in front of Worman, was trembling in fear. He wondered how much fake alcohol his father had consumed to provoke the sixth prince of Montiria.
“Dad, if we fail, the Keller Family will have nowhere to be buried…”
Worman glared at his son with anger. If Louis hadn’t been his biological son, favonovel.com would have kicked Louis out a long time ago.
“You don’t understand. Even if we don’t make a move against them, Matthew and Gadel will still come after us, the Kellers. This is a case of preemption. Besides, even if the operation fails, Gadel wouldn’t dare to gather troops to wipe out the Keller Family.”
Although favonovel.com spoke with great confidence, deep down, favonovel.com was filled with anxiety.
