"So what are your plans for spirit hall Ryan?" Tang Hao sitting at the kitchen asks.
"It's simple we make them suffer destroying spirit hall would be much to easy." I smile and say.
"And how do you plan to do that exactly?" he says stuffing some food into his mouth.
"We break them internally and externally. The spirit hall combat competition is coming up. During the last event for the empire we earned millions through betting on ourselves as the empire had no idea who we even were." I say to the now intently listening man.
I had already made a ton of cash from spirit hall and the empire and planted thoughts of war in the mind of the king.
The empire and spirit hall are both pretty bad eggs so we let them fight it out and tear down resources. Since the spirit hall has no idea that all their plans are found out they are happily sitting on their thrones plotting.
"So break their bank with gambling? Then what?" he asks as my plan seems too easy.
"Well you see what most people don't know is that the current supreme pontiff killed off the previous ones son and blamed it on you lol. Even the old man doesn't know about this." I tell the shocked man.
"The man who came after your mother and me was killed by bibi dong? Aren't they married?" he asked intrigued by this juicy gossip.
"They were however she's a bit power hungry and over protective of her daughter whom I just so happen to have kidnapped." I reply.
"So you have a hostage for insurance?" he asks.
"Nope you see I think that crazy woman would happily give up her daughter for her own personal gains." I say.
"So you turn them against each other and gain yourself a new ally?" he says eyes sparkling.
"Yep the daughter doesn't even want to do any of this and is only going along with it for her mother's sake now what happens when the mother throws her away?" I ask him with a sly smile.
"Perfect you don't even have to do anything but how are you going to get her to throw her daughter away?" he asks.
"Simple you offer her daughter in exchange for simple peace with the spirit hall like you took her captive and when she declines we've got her." I happily say.
"That sounds pretty devious." he nods. "What happens next?"
"Well bibi has a female disciple who is almost unmatched combat wise in her age. What's going to happen is I'm going to absolutely destroy her in the competition and use some charms to make her not stop thinking about me. Then when she rushes off to the slaughter arena to get stronger I'm going to follow her and just so happen to help her along and earn her trust." I smile.
"So your not only going to snatch her daughter and her disciple your going to break them financially and internally? nice." he gives me a thumbs up.
"Don't forget the clans and allies you've been gathering. I plan to make them all just up and dissappear basically over night. What's spirit hall going to do when all their enemies just dissappear." I ask him.
"Focus on the empire and then deal with internal problems all while panicking and expecting an attack from enemies in the back it will put them on edge." his eyes brighten.
"Correct and when the attack never comes and they are tired of keeping their guard up boom we hit them." I say with a sinister smile.
"Then what?" he asks.
"Then we just piss off and enjoy our happy life after making a fortune." I reply happily.
"Don't you already have a fortune what are you even spending all the money you've saved up for all these years on?" he asked knowing about the midas stones.
over these years the gold has piled up to astronomical amounts equaling almost 22 trillion. So what do we do with all this spare cash? The answer is making a planet sized gold ball to piss people off. Just kidding we save it up for fancy future stuff spending.
"We just save it up. There's no such thing as too much money besides who knows what we might need in the future." it's totally not because I love the look of solid gold bars and coins flooding into my gate of babylon.
There were plenty of things in the store worth astronomical prices everything from bloodlines to planets to even starships and primordial laws.
"So why are we discussing this?" he asked me.
"So when I do something I didn't say and piss off the readers I can get a good laugh out of it as they spam me with messages asking 'What about this or that didn't you say?' I can pretend that I never said that and come back to edit this chapter for shits and giggles." I tell the man.
"How truly evil of you."
Mad cackles commence.
"Well enough of this I need to prepare with the others and discuss some plans for the upcoming tournament I also need to make sure all the buildings are ready in the kingdom for our new residents. I wonder if the clear sky clan is going to be pissed you stole all their allies since they were being chicken shits." I say casually getting up from the table and rinsing off my plate.
"No idea." he says following me.
