Chapter 38
Butler laughed and gave his answer, "As you wish Prince, I think the sa as more nobles supporting us would be beneficial to us in future, plus your eldest brother already has a lot of grasp in Military matters so we would anyways need more chips against him in future so it would be better to make more connections and fewer confrontations in upper noble class for now . "
Butler later proceeded to invite Bart who was waiting in the Mansion,
"Okay, As Master is free now, you can have a eting now so please follow , Lord Bart . "
Bart didn’t act all haughty in front of the butler because he knew that this butler was one of the right-hand n of Prince Hector and hence he followed the butler without making any problems .
After entering to the room where Prince Hector was staying, Bart first made his greetings and waited for the instructions of Prince Hector to proceed, while the butler was preparing the food and drinks for both of them .
This ti Bart had prepared all the information about John and his connections to Morgan family while waiting for Prince .
After a pause, Prince Hector said Bart, "You should already know why I am already pissed with the outco, right? I don’t want any of your excuses, just tell who was the guy and who are his backers . " indicating that he would be more pissed if he didn’t even investigate about them and ca empty handed .
Bart told without holding back because, after years of dealing with upper-class nobles, he understood one thing that you should be prepared if you make mistakes after watching his father and brother .
"Prince, this ti it was a new rchant nad John but this ti he was with the grandson of Morgan family and while we were bidding I had even added all of my money but when I was bidding for the sword their attitude seed like they wanted to buy that sword at any cost and they had already raised by 4 tis so we didn’t have enough money at that ti . "
Bart emphasized on the word grandson as he knew that Carl had a lot of authority in Pearl city and he had connections to a lot of nobles with upper class since he was an honorary Marquis which he gained after using a lot of connections and fortune .
"But the most important thing was that when I was leaving the Auction I saw that, John and Joseph were having a eting with Princess Diana and his personal butler . When I was looking at them from a distance and in dark, both Butler and that guy John were able to sense . So it seed like both were quite capable fighters," As Bart didn’t know about Vlad so he said in a nonchalant manner .
Prince Hector was thinking after taking in all the information which he got from Bart and asked him, "You didn’t provoke or offend that butler, right?"
Bart then replied cautiously as he sensed danger from that tone, "I don’t think so . "
Prince didn’t mind to Bart as he knew Vlad wouldn’t bother about small fry and asked his butler about his opinion, "Alistair, what do you think after listening to this information?"
Alistair turned to Bart and confird the information, "You said his na is John and he was recently traveling with Joseph, right?"
Bart confird it, "Yes, I am certain his na is John, he was with Joseph and he recently ca with his friends to Pearl city on Joseph’s trade fleet,"
"Master, a few days ago, it was also this guy nad John who defeated Antonio in East sea city due to a dispute over miss Eva, at that ti he was only acquainted with Jack but Joseph was present during the duel as well so I think this guy is the sa John,"
Prince Hector thought a bit and said to Alistair, "Hmm . . . so this guy also made problems with Antonio and now he bought the Icethorn sword at auction . "
Alistair understood and then asked Prince Hector, "Additionally a few days ago, Antonio had requested for so elite assassins as he needed them to wash off his humiliation in East sea city . But it has still not been approved yet . "
Prince stopped him and told, "But if from what Bart says is correct then the problem cos if they have made a connection with Princess Diana and that scary Butler . "
Alistair thought a lot and gave one his suggestions to Hector, "That’s true, but that can easily be solved if we asked a third party to help Antonio where our hands would not be seen . But the main problem is that we don’t want to antagonize Marquis Ray and Duke of Southern Forest for now, I suggest we use one of the brothers of Joseph to handle that situation so even if we get discovered, Morgan family would restrain in accusing us since one of their kin was involved due to their rivalry in business and it would be hard for them to accuse us since we are only helping the other brothers for acquiring power in the family,"
"I suggest this because after looking at the history of Morgan family there were always nobles supporting brothers from behind the scenes whether it was previous generations or the ones before that . "
"And if we want to be more careful then we can use those assassins in the na of Antonio, we would only need to make connections between Antonio and one of Joseph’s brothers and as their interests would match, no one would be able to accuse us later on since we were only connecting rchants and nobles like we do all the ti . " Alistair finished giving one of his ideas . Most of the ti it was Alistair who would help Prince Hector in strategizing his plans whether it was political or economical .
After hearing Alistair’s conclusion and plan, Bart remarked in a cheerful tone, "Excellent! with such a great plan we would succeed no matter what . But Prince I also wanted to add one more thing when you ntioned miss Eva, from my information John is also a disciple of Potioneer lanie . "
