Reincarnated Golden Emperor - Chapter 177
The women followed him without a single question. After they were some distance away from the men. Saito turned towards them and said, “Tell me, do you know the reason why I made you learn these seduction techniques? Allyssia?”
With his finger pointing towards Allyssia. Allyssia remained standing at the same position and started speaking with a light blush, “His majesty wanted us to pleasure him using our bodies?”
Even though the other 100 women had thought of similar things in their heads. They still had a light blush when it was spoken outright by Allyssia in front of Saito.
Even though these women looked embarrassed, none of them spoke against it. Some seemed nervous about this task. Some women stole quick glances at Saito and once again looked down. Some women even seemed a little excited to get started.
Chuckling at those words, Saito replied to them, “It’s a tempting idea, but that’s not the reason you learned the seduction techniques. You should know that the Vermillion Kingdom is divided into 27 large states and 121 small states. The large states are monitored by dukes while the small states are monitored by Viscounts.”
“Yes, your majesty. Miss Elise taught us a lot about the nobility and how they should be treated.” It was one of the female eternal knights who spoke this.
Saito looked towards the woman who said this. The woman who looked like 23 years of age had a youthful appearance along with a mature charm.
With a gentle smile on his face, Saito said, “Tell me, how can any of you gain any power or influence within a house of a duke or viscount?” Internally, he was thinking ‘Heh… Elise seems to have taught them a lot more than I thought she would. It seems that she had similar plans…’
This question seemed to be targeted at her. The woman was somewhat overwhelmed in emotion when she saw Saito’s gentle smile towards her.
She takes a deep breath and calms down before starting, “She said that serving a nobility was different in different situations. For a maid, the maid must have an excellent relationship with the concubine who was the youngest within the harem as well as the one whom duke or viscount loved the most. Because even though the wife had more power, if the duke were to pick a side, he would choose the side of the concubine he loved the most. He would even ignore her mistakes and being her maid was the best. If the duke lies to lay his hands on the maid, they should naturally warm his bed and get into an intimate relationship with the duke. It won’t be long before the maid’s status would be elevated to that of a concubine.”
On the surface, Saito’s face had a gentle smile which made it seem like he was pleased with her answer. He was thinking in his head ‘I see… This is not what I was thinking, but it looks even better than my idea.’
‘The idea to not be the main wife’s maid or the duke’s maid is to prevent them from suddenly getting into the spotlight. If such a beautiful woman like them gets into the spotlight, then even if they grab the attention of the duke, they would also be hated by his wives and concubines. It would be difficult to make any movements if they had to constantly be wary of the other wives and concubines.’
‘Moreover, if one of them become the maid of a concubine. There would be many chances for her to encounter the duke without grabbing the spotlight. All that would remain would be to grab his attention and get him alone. All that will be left is to assassinate him and run away before anyone becomes aware of it.’
He gave her a nod and then said, “Correct. As for the seduction techniques, there is no need for you to be professional. Among the 27 large states… I want you all to form an influence in at least 14 of them. As for the small states, other than a few, the rest are unimportant.”
“By creating an influence. Does your highness plans to send us to these states and become a duke’s concubine before starting to build up our influence?” Another one of the women who seemed slightly nervous asked Saito.
“Correct. However, you all would have different tasks, though. One of you will create a trading company while the other 13 would expand its influence in their states. 4 of you are going to hire the gang and force them to work under you. Whether you use your strength or wealth, it doesn’t matter. However, this gang must obey your orders completely, just like you obey mine.” His eyes moved from one face to another as he stared at these women.
Other than some embarrassment and reluctance, no one planned to oppose his plan. It did relieve him since it proved that their loyalty to him was undisputed. Though he was somewhat worried because he had left them on their own for a month, and if they face such an order, how they would react.
It seemed that Saito was worried for nothing. He looked into their eyes and continued, “As for the rest of the 10. Create a brothel in the states. This would help you do business while also giving you cover for hiring soldiers. Do you all understand?”
“Yes, your majesty!” All the women nodded their heads. They looked nervous but showed no hesitation when they received his command.
Saito gave them a gentle smile, “That’s good. I will choose the 14 of you tomorrow. After that, you will spend another week here before you will leave for the states assigned to each one of you.”
“Yes, my lord!” All the female Eternal Knights said with a shout.
“Alright, now join up with those men and introduce yourself to my little brother. Don’t talk about this task at all.” After saying that, Saito walked towards the place where the Eternal Knights were standing.
The female Eternal Knights followed him. As they stood next to the men.
Saito stood in front of them all and cleared his throat, “Alright, I shall now introduce you to the five elves who will teach you how to control your elemental magic. These five elves are naturally talented in each one of the basic elements. Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning, Wind.”
The five elves who were within the wooden mansion seemed to feel Saito’s magic summoning them. They flew outside the estate and noticed Saito standing in front of 500 Eternal Knights.
Saito pointed at them to let his Eternal Knights know about their teachers. He continued on, “They will test your dominant elements. The elements which you can control easily. They will teach you for 1 week before your missions will start. After that, you are on your own to develop your understanding of the elements, be sure to learn all that you can.”
With a loud cheer, the Eternal Knights turned towards the five elves. They had a determined fire burning within their eyes. It looked like they were ready to take all the knowledge that these elves had.
Saito turned towards Michael, Clark, and Oskar. He said with a serious face, “Michael, Clark, and Oskar. I know that you three are only interested in deepening your knowledge of your weapon. However, do understand that elemental magic is also a part of your magic. Train it and combine it to create your own style. The fighting style that works the best only for you. It will be hard because you would need to gain the knowledge of both the sword as well as the elements you are compatible with. However, the gains would be worth it.”
After some thinking, they nodded their heads. Saito was correct. If they continued to neglect their magic training. No matter how strong their sword qi would be, they wouldn’t be a match at the high level.
Saito himself wasn’t too knowledgeable about this Sword Qi and all so this was all he could advise.
He spent some more time organizing them all and assigning their respective duties. After that, he left for Zleka City.
Now that almost all the tasks had been arranged. Saito could finally meet up with Lyra and Chloe. It seemed like an eternity since he saw those two.
Flying to Zleka City didn’t take him much time. He flew towards the western part of the city where Chloe resided.
Before he even entered the house. He had a smile on his face because he sensed two familiar Auras within the home.
It was naturally the aura of Chloe and Lyra. They both seemed to be eating right now. Saito didn’t conceal his aura and entered the house.
After acquiring the Golden Dragon Bloodline, his aura had a complete transformation. It was naturally a lot different from before.
As soon as Lyra and Chloe sensed his aura. They were in a battle stance. Some vines appeared near Saito’s feet as soon as he stepped into the house.
A beautiful woman suddenly appeared from the room one end of the double-bladed staff on Saito’s neck.. Saito didn’t use any magic to defend against this surprise attack since recognized the warrior who attacked him.
