Chapter 475: Smith’s troubles (1)
Translator: 549690339
Going back to a few days ago, Smith was sitting in his study room in a daze. Phil stood beside him and looked at him with a pained expression. Phil knew what Smith was feeling because he had just received a letter from the kalchi family. They still had to deal with Zhao Hai, and this time, they were going to send out a level 9 expert.
Smith couldn’t understand why his wise and powerful clansmen were so stupid when it came to Zhao Hai. They were so stupid that he thought they were talking about love with a cow.
Moreover, because of Smith’s words, the family was already somewhat dissatisfied with him, which made Smith’s head hurt even more. He was now very clear that Zhao Hai was no longer alone. There was Prince Charlie standing behind him. Moreover, he heard that Zhao Hai was very valued by Charlie. If his family members really killed Zhao Hai this time, it would be equivalent to making an enemy of Charlie. If Charlie really came to power, then the kalchi family would not have a good end.
He also knew that the family did not take Charlie seriously. Charlie was only the third Prince and not the first Prince. Although he had the right to inherit, he had always been very low-key. This was also the reason why the family did not take Charlie seriously.
However, Smith knew that it wasn’t that Charlie wasn’t valued. On the contrary, he was very valued. This could be seen from the fact that the old king of the Roson Empire had given him control of Jade water city.
Although the power of the Roson Empire’s royal family was great, there were only a few cities that could be considered to have high income. Jade water city, Outwater city, and Carson City were all included.
Carson City, the capital of the Empire, was the center of the Empire. The first Prince had always lived there, helping the old king with some government affairs. It could be said that the first Prince had the most power in Carson City.
However, Carson City was like a dragon and a Tiger. The eldest Prince’s power was only relative to the other princes. There were many forces that were more powerful than him in Carson City. Even the kalchi family’s power in Carson City was no less than the eldest Prince’s. In addition, it was under the eyes of the old king, so it would be very difficult for the eldest Prince to do anything. Therefore, Smith didn’t have a very high opinion of the eldest Prince.
The second Prince had control of outflowing city, which was a good place. It was similar to Tianshui city’s geographical crime. However, Smith didn’t think highly of the second Prince. This person was too short-sighted. He managed outflowing city to make money. He wanted to enter and make money by any means possible. Now, many merchants no longer went to outflowing city to do business. If it wasn’t for the good geographical location, outflowing city would have been in ruins.
Third Prince Charlie was in charge of Jade water city. The various major forces of the Roson Empire did not seem to pay much attention to this third Prince. This was very strange in itself. The third-in-line successor of the strongest country on the continent did not seem to be noticed by many people. This was too strange.
This could only mean that he was usually low-key, very low-key, so no one paid attention to him. However, Smith knew that the more such a person was, the scarier he was. If you didn’t pay attention to him, you wouldn’t know how many cards he had in his hands. This kind of person was the scariest.
This time, he had personally poached Zhao Hai from water out city to Jade water city, and he had almost gotten into a conflict with the second Prince. A low-key person like Zhao Hai was willing to get into a conflict with the second Prince for the sake of Zhao Hai. This in itself showed how important Zhao Hai was to him. Was this not enough to attract the attention of the family?
However, those people in the family seemed to turn a blind eye to these things. They did not think in that direction at all. They only wanted to deal with Zhao Hai. Not only did they offend the third Prince, but it was also a blow to the reputation of the Karche family.
Zhao Hai’s identity was now known by the entire continent. He was a black magician. The reason he came to Tianshui city was also guessed by the people of the continent. It was because he had offended Borich and the Church of Light, so he had no choice but to come to Tianshui city to seek refuge with the kalci family.
Even if the other forces on the continent did not know about the existence of the black magician Alliance, they knew that the carci family had always been the leader of the black magicians on the continent. The reason why those black magicians were willing to join the black magician Alliance was that the Alliance could provide them with help and manage the lax management.
Under such circumstances, the kalci family still treated Zhao Hai with such an attitude. This in itself was very inappropriate. What do you want those Black Mages to do? Would they join the alliance? Would he still help the Alliance? In the future, even if there were black magicians in trouble, they would not dare to take refuge in the carci family. This was because they were afraid that they would be like Zhao Hai, having good things in their hands that would be taken by the carci family and robbed.
From an outsider’s point of view, this was the situation. Zhao Hai had a hot-spicy diced fish, and the kalchi family wanted it by force, but Zhao Hai didn’t give it to them, which led to this situation.
Outsiders wouldn’t care about what was going on inside the kalchi family. However, they only knew that Zhu Wan was also a member of the kalchi family. Without the support of the kalchi family, he couldn’t stop Zhao Hai from snatching things.
Smith was distressed about this matter. The impression of the carci family in the hearts of The Black Mages was not very good. If this continued, the Black Mage Alliance might fall apart.
What Smith didn’t understand was that Peter, his big brother, knew the black magician Alliance the best. He should know this, so why didn’t he stop it? Not only did he not stop him, but he also wrote a letter asking for his help. He didn’t agree, which was what Smith was most puzzled about.
As Smith’s Chief Steward, Phil naturally understood what was going on, but he didn’t have any good ideas now. Smith was only the second heir of the family. There was still the patriarch, the elder Council, and a few other heirs eyeing him covetously. What he could do was really limited.
At first, Phil thought that the family would not go too far with Zhao Hai. After all, the kalci family was in the wrong in this matter. It was equivalent to daylight robbery. Moreover, it was a magician who came to seek refuge with them. However, he did not expect things to turn out this way.
By now, Zhao Hai had taken more than 30 battleships from the carci family. Although he did not kill those level 8 powerhouses, he had crippled them.
To be honest, when he heard the news, Phil was very angry. He did not expect Zhao Hai to be so ruthless. He had paid for ten level 8 powerhouses. However, he also knew that Zhao Hai was already giving face to the kalchi family. Otherwise, Zhu Wan would have been dead long ago.
What surprised Phil the most was that the family had actually sent a rank 9 expert to deal with Zhao Hai. It was not a wise decision for the family.
Could a warrior of the ninth rank move so easily? Furthermore, it was for such a reason to deal with a black magician. If the family were to hire a grade-9 expert to take action, they would probably have to pay a huge price. Most importantly, what would the black magicians in the black magician Alliance think if they were to deal with Zhao Hai? Could they still count on The Black Mages to help them in the future?
Just as Phil was racking his brain over this matter, Smith suddenly said to him, ” “Uncle Phil, what do you think those people in the family are thinking? Why did they have to deal with Zhao Hai? Now that things have come to this, I’m afraid that little five can’t control it. ”
Phil nodded. &Quot; that’s right. Hiring a 9th rank combatant is a huge matter. It’s not something that the fifth young master can change. It seems like it’s the decision of the patriarch or the elders. But why did they make such a decision? I don’t understand. Could it be because of what happened a while ago that they’re so confident that Zhao Hai has disgraced the family? This doesn’t seem like the clan leader’s style of doing things.”
Smith’s eyes lit up when he heard Phil.”Uncle Phil, do you think it’s because the people in the family are afraid of Zhao Hai?”
Phil was stunned and looked at Smith in confusion. &Quot; “Afraid? What was there to be afraid of? No matter how powerful he is, he can’t possibly defeat a combatant of the ninth rank. Why should the clan be afraid of him?”
“The family is not afraid of Zhao Hai’s power. They are afraid of Zhao Hai’s head. Wasn’t Zhao Hai the one who came up with the plan to suppress the Church of Light a while ago?” “They’re afraid that if Zhao Hai’s understanding of the black magician Alliance is deeper, the family’s control over the black magician Alliance will slowly weaken. So, they want to use this incident to get rid of Zhao Hai and remove this hidden danger. Black magicians are people who only care about themselves. They don’t care about Zhao Hai’s life or death. That’s why the family dared to make such a decision. They’re not afraid of the black magicians leaving the Alliance.”
Phil was stunned, then muttered,”is that so?” Even if The Black Mages don’t leave the Alliance, I’m afraid they won’t let the Alliance know too much about them. This is a huge blow to the Alliance.”
Smith snorted. &Quot; I’m afraid it’s not that simple. Zhao Hai’s idea made the entire Empire start to officially have black magicians. The family has a huge influence in the Empire. In the future, those who want to learn black magic will probably become the family’s disciples. Now, the family no longer has to worry about the inheritance of the black magicians. To them, the black magician Alliance is no longer important. That’s why they want to deal with Zhao Hai. &Quot;
Phil looked at Smith in a daze and said,”Will it be like this? Would the family really do that?” Although he was doubtful, he actually agreed with Smith’s words. His family might really go against Zhao Hai for this reason.
Phil had served the kalchi family for his whole life. He knew those people in the family very well. Although the kalchi family was considered to be low-key now, they had not changed the bad habits of the big aristocrats in their bones, greed, greed for wealth, and greed for power.
A few years ago, due to the suppression of the Church of Light, the power of the carci family was weak. They had to set up the black magician Alliance and unite all the black magicians, so they were very good to those black magicians. However, before that, the carci family looked down on those black magicians. Even some small families that were founded by black magicians were not destroyed by the Church of Light, but by the carci family. It was to maintain the position of the carci family in the hearts of The Black Mages.
