Chapter 234: Gambler (1/2)

”What do you mean, you want to pluck off his position? Do you think it would be that easy? Can we alone threaten his position of the emperor? It is nigh impossible.” Philip said in a gloomy voice.

”Why do we have to threaten the position of an emperor.”

”Then how are you going to do this.”

”You just have to wait and see. You will understand soon enough.”

Around a month later, they arrived at the southern star city. But they didn't enter it immediately.

In the nearby woods of the southern star, there is a small hill. They climbed that hill and went dug a small cave where they made a camp for themselves.

”I will visit the Park and will try to get some information on the situation. If you guys want you can stay here or you can stay inside the dimension.”

”We will take a look around the surroundings and see what is the position here. The hunters usually have some first-class information, we will see if we get some.”

Philip said and the four of them went to do their own thing.

Sam entered the city stealthily and infiltrated the staff quarters of the Park.

Evening.

The time for the shift change was here and the staff who just finished the shift came back.

Right now, Sam is in the residence of the leader of Mackey.

So, when Mackey came in, he slowly came out of the dimension and scared the hell out of Mackey.

Sam closed his mouth, not letting him yell in fear, and whispered in his ear.

”It's me, Sam.”

Mackey relaxed a bit and his usual emotionless face came back.

”You are indeed capable Boss; you can even enter the city in these circumstances.”

”What is the situation?”

”Well, the Duke came back a few days ago along with a middle-aged man and had a meeting with the core staff of the Park.

He said that you are a criminal on run and they are going to confiscate the park in a discreet manner. The three-tower heads didn't agree as they are still afraid of your fireworks, since the duke didn't confirm that you are not dead, they don't want to do this, I heard that even the tower heads of the imperial capital are not willing to do so and they seem to say something about the peers of the same trade and the pressure from their professional associations.

So, they are trying hard to win over the tower heads. But they are not willing to budge and they are also saving up your share diligently.

But the city guards, the nobles all of them are on tight guard to get you, even the military was involved except for your battalion. I am actually quite surprised that you are able to get here without anyone noticing.”

Sam didn't reply for a second and then asked.

”Are you really just a chef? How do you get all these details in the first place?”

”I just pay more attention. And the tower heads know that I am your original subordinate, so they told me most things.”

”Then, who is holding my money?”

”Formation tower head.”

”Okay, then I will see you later, just be careful. Things would get messy, extremely messy, and chaotic.”

”See you later, Boss.”

Sam left the place and came back to the cave.

The remaining three also came back and they are roasting a bird on the flames.

”It is just as we thought, the southern star became the primary target and they even tried to take over the park, but the resistance from the tower heads is more than I thought it would be, seems like I attracted the attention of some big shots in the thunder god island towers, otherwise these people wouldn't be able to control their greed at all.

Anyway, the military also got involved along with the nobility and all the other city guards. We are actually on a tight leash, what did you get on your side?”

Sam said as he took a bit of the roasted leg.
