Hero of Darkness Chapter 326: Planned Beforehand

Chapter 326: Planned Beforehand

After Kahn was done laying out traps to catch the big fishes, the meeting continued in the main hall of his new castle.

All his actions ever since he landed in Aesir weren't just done out of a fluke but premeditated and well-thought strategies.

Back right when Kahn was curious about the Verla.s.sen mountain range when the compet.i.tion was close to the quarterfinals, Kahn had Ronin hire plenty of big and powerful spy organizations to gather information about it.

Ronin changed his appearance each time he visited one of these organizations that exceeded their own Seven Deadly Sins by many times and had their information network spread throughout the empire.

He spent billions of gold coins to hire these reputed organizations to gather information about this region and mainly about the people such as military commanders, conglomerates, native clans who ruled and controlled various parts of it from a long time.

And through those organizations, Ronin received reports about the rumors, notable incidents and corruption cases against all of them.

But since the system itself was corrupt, none of these people ever had to face any consequences and the three factions who controlled the government were allied in this act of misconduct.

But even so, Kahn and the company had no solid evidence to act against them even if he was to become a new sovereign of this region. And he had to do things systematically lest his name and reputation were to hit the bottom from the very beginning.

He had to do everything by justifying his actions and also needed full public support while doing so otherwise the government would use his conduct to call them unfair means and try to bring down his reputation.

And soon, they would come up with multiple reasons to declare him as the unworthy ruler and try to take away his authority.

Hence, Kahn's plan was to not only create an image of the humble ruler in front of the public of his new fiefdom.. But to put all these uppercla.s.smen and business tyc.o.o.ns into disarray.

And through this meeting where all the heads of the government departments, ministers and the semi-saints in charge of the military armies were gathered..

He used his own black and red aura, mixed with Rudra's black fog as a cover-up to plant his a.s.sa.s.sin subordinates in their shadows. Each of these people currently had more than 50 a.s.sa.s.sins hidden within them, commander Stark and Mormont were no exception to this.

After learning his lessons with the Chamber of Commerce when he met all the top tyc.o.o.ns of Rukon District and didn't plant his a.s.sa.s.sins in their shadows.. Kahn had become wiser to not give an opportunity to his potential enemies at all.

And most importantly, he had given all of them recording and projection artifacts.

Because of Kahn's firm stand about how he wasn't going to play along and cornered them to make a choice...

All of them would be scared for their illegal activities to be exposed by Kahn.. After this incident, all of them were riled up and soon, would try to cover their own tracks.

And that's where Kahn's a.s.sa.s.sins would come into play.

All of them were ordered to gather evidence, records, ledgers, record who these people met with and what kind of organizations did they deal with and how he will gather all the evidence to indict them in the name of stealing from the people and misusing their positions and authority.

All Kahn needed was enough time till his subordinates reported back after they gathered enough proof. So once he had it all, he could start the next phase of his grand plan.

"Ronin, you're in charge of handling these affairs as usual. Once we have proofs and recordings against all of them.. We will make our next move." commanded Kahn.

"Yes, my master. I will take care of everything." spoke Ronin as he slightly bowed.

Just then, the subordinates in white and purple mage robes asked..

"What should be our next move then, my lord?" asked Ceril.

Kahn then looked at all of his subordinates present in human forms and spoke with a solemn tone..

"For now, our priorities should be fully controlling the military and economic infrastructure of this region.

I'm only the ruler in the name for now.. But if I want to truly control everything, running these two sectors with my own hands is a must.

If the first phase of my plans succeeds, then I will have legit reasons to do a takeover and no one would be able to raise any questions." spoke Kahn with a serious expression.

"Omega, Jugram and Oliver… I'm leaving a particular task to all three of you." he said.

The three subordinates instantly kneeled in front of their master and spoke..

"We will not disappoint you, master!" said the subordinates in unison.

For the next one hour, Kahn told all the subordinates about what he wanted them to accomplish and how they should approach the matter at hand.

And once he was done.. All of the subordinates had surprised but also excited expressions on their faces. As if they were proud of their master who was nothing but a genius mastermind.

"Then what about me? I can't be of much help in these activities." finally, Armin spoke.

To his question, Kahn nodded back and replied.

"You have a major part to play. Just be patient."

"Then what about me, my lord?" asked Ceril as he suddenly felt left out.

"Ha ha! Don't worry about it. I already have different plans for you. It's something I'm certain you will absolutely love." replied Kahn and gave a sinister smile.

"Tomorrow… we will expand our own army." he said.

Soon, Kahn explained another plan that would soon play a crucial part in his rule as the new sovereign.

All the subordinates were once again in an awe of how evil and cunning their master has become over the short span of a month alone.

Kahn was fully going to exercise his rights as the new sovereign of this region.

He let out a chuckle and declared…

"An army that will be loyal only to me."
