Ruben and Sargan were concocting a plan to kill Minos Zaraki. A normal approach of attacking him with nurous warriors would fail easily.
They needed a detailed plan. And a lot more people to contribute to this plan.
"I will keep a watch over the Zaraki Family's movents. When I give you the signal, send your warriors to . I will handle the rest," Sargan inford Ruben while he finished eating the food.
"What do you an?" Ruben asked, slightly curious about what Sargan was planning.
Ruben still showed a puzzled expression. Sargan let out a sigh and placed down his cocktail before beginning his explanation, "In this particular week, the Zaraki Family is planning to tie up with so other middle-ranked families and conclude so deals with them."
"I plan to check the timing of their deals and sohow ask Minos to co to a particular location urgently without giving him a chance of informing his father about it. He is going to reach that location with his guards. We are going to kill him and bury him in that location. For the next few days, his death would remain a secret. And we will reveal it when it suits us."
Sargan finished giving the details regarding the plan. He asked after so ti, "…Any questions?"
"Just one. What should we do once the Governor realizes that I killed his son? Won't he co after with all his power and influence? How do we deal with him?" Ruben asked with a solemn expression.
This was a rather crucial question. If Sargan couldn't answer this, Ruben wouldn't go through with this plan.
Sargan knew why Ruben was so worried. He spoke with a small smile, "You are worried because the Governor has connections with the King. If he knows that you killed his son, he might use the King's influence to destroy you completely."
"That's correct," Ruben nodded his head.
Sargan then asked him a simple question, "Why do you think the King will take his side?"
"Because I killed his son, and the King would definitely want to fulfill his subordinate's request," Ruben replied with a factual tone.
"How will he prove that you are the perpetrator, though?" Sargan then asked the million-dollar question.
Ruben was about to respond quickly before he stopped himself in the middle, "…He can't prove it if I make those individuals disappear."
"Exactly! If the perpetrators vanish, the connection to you would also disappear. Nobody except the two of us will know," Sargan spoke with a smile on his face.
"I have another question. How will you get Minos Zaraki to co to a location urgently without him informing his father about it?" Ruben asked curiously.
"That's a trade secret. For that, I need an array master, though. At the least a 4 Star Array Master," Sargan responded.
Ruben didn't probe too much. He knew that since Sargan didn't want to ntion it, asking about it any more would be a moot point.
"I see. I can provide you with an Array Master," Ruben solemnly promised. He then added, "I will leave the other details to you."
Sargan nodded as he responded, "That's very much alright."
Sargan decided to depart after they discussed so more about the fighters Ruben was going to hire.
These warriors were going to be rogue rcenaries who didn't have anything better to do. Ruben was going to give them this job under an anonymous identity.
They weren't going to be told that their target was actually Minos Zaraki.
Many rcenary groups near Vlashire City were indeed capable of dealing with Minos Zaraki. However, they never dared to move against him because of their fear of the Zaraki Family.
Ruben was planning to use their rcenary group and target Minos Zaraki. Since they won't know their employer or their target, they were naturally going to demand double the price, but it was very much worth it in their mind.
After Sargan returned to his house, he began to talk to Yrellea.
"When I give you the signal, call out for Minos Zaraki to a private location. Don't use the Voice Transmission Array Stone. Send one of your subordinates, instead. I will block the Voice Transmission Array Stone Waves in that area," Sargan inford Yrellea.
"So, you are finally dealing with Minos Zaraki. I thought I had to delay the matter a bit more," Yrellea let out a relieved sigh.
"We won't just be dealing with Minos Zaraki. I am also going to plant suspicion on so other reputed family. If the Governor truly begins to suspect that family, he is going to take action against them. One of his greatest allies would beco his enemy. I am sure that would harm his foundations greatly," Sargan added.
"Once the Governor has been embroiled in those matters, you can develop however you want. Even open more branches in other cities," Sargan suggested as this was how Yrellea could be even more useful to Azaroth.
"Alright," Yrellea replied.
Sargan cut off the spiritual connection between them before he contacted a few other subordinates who inford him about the Zaraki Family's movents in detail.
These were his informants who kept him updated regarding the Zaraki Family's movents.
They just gave so basic information to Sargan. Like who had co to et the Governor and so on.
Sargan acquired information on those individuals and made wild assumptions about why they were eting with the Governor.
Most of the ti, his guesses would be slightly off the mark. But at the least, he could correctly guess the general direction.
One of his subordinates inford him that Minos would be asked to leave for a mission 3 days later.
Sargan didn't know where Minos was going, and he had to find out.
He decided to gather the rumors regarding the nearby cities at a week's distance from this city.
After a couple of hours, he found out where Minos was most probably going.
A fierce criminal by the title 'Thundering Vulture' was sighted in a nearby village. If Sargan's guess was right, the governor sent Minos along with the bounty hunters to gain so experience.
The bounty hunters were going to deal with this Thundering Vulture warrior while Minos would learn how a criminal was retrained.
He was going to see this with his own eyes and understand the entire process.
Once he understands the process, the Governor could ask his son to lead a group to deal with a couple of criminals.
This would allow him to gain experience and prestige. The Governor had already realized that he couldn't allow his son to remain a wastrel.
His son had to display that he was capable of dealing with important tasks. And this would be the perfect thod to display that.
After this would co the diplomatic etings. Soon, Minos Zaraki was going to deal diplomatically on behalf of the entire Zaraki Family.
However, Sargan realized that he could use this event to deal with Minos once and for all.
He inford Yrellea of the timing. Yrellea responded that she understood her task and was on the work imdiately.
The sa was true about Sargan. He checked the route from where Minos would pass to reach that village and set up those arrays that would block all signals for the Voice Transmission Array Stone.
He also inford Ruben about the timing and asked him to get the warriors ready by that ti.
The rcenary group was ready to accept this task. After all, Ruben promised them 100,000 Spirit Coins for the corpses of 50 warriors.
That was much more than their standard rates. In fact, the price offered was a little more than double their standard cost. They asked just how strong their enemies would be, and when they found out that the strongest among them would only be a 4 Star Warrior, they were relieved.
They accepted this task without any further questions.
