Capítulo 18: Preparations for dealing with traitors

Inside the palace gardens of the Jiang Dynasty, one could see a golden-haired man sleeping under a cherry tree, when a woman approached him was Ying Huan, she then sat next to him and enjoyed the image of him resting for a few minutes before saying.

-Gilgamesh, my pride, it's time for lunch. (Ying Huan) said gently rubbing the hair of Gilgamesh.

-Um, good morning mother, what's for lunch?- (Gilgamesh) said with a very sleepy face, he had stayed awake for the last weeks, developing new weapons, to deal with all the powers of the Eastern Sea Region, Gilgamesh would conquer them too, after all there were some beauties in that place and he would take all of them for himself, in his opinion Chu Feng could go fuck himself, if he tried to take any of the heavenly beauties that were there he was going to kill Chu Feng.

Gilgamesh did not fear anyone much less the father of Chu Feng, for although he could not win in a fight with only his cultivation, he could simply bring out the Ea, and destroy him along with a whole world if necessary, Gilgamesh had that determination and he would if he needed to, for although Chu Xuanyuan be powerful, nor can he deal with an Ante world weaponry like Ea and stay alive.

-Today the maids made curry and hamburger, they also made a chocolate cake and Mengxin said she made mango pudding for dessert. (Ying Huan)

Gilgamesh had taught how to make several meals from his former world for the cooks of the castle, and they loved to learn, Gilgamesh although not the best cook in the world he still knew how to make many dishes, since in his career as an agent there was a mission in that he had to disguise himself as an ordinary person, and he chose to learn how to cook so he could open a restaurant, to disguise.

Upon hearing that there would be mango pudding made by Mengxin, Gilgamesh's eyes lit up, and he said,

-We can not miss lunch, we should go eat now. (Gilgamesh) said as he quickly got up and reached out to help his mother stand up as well.

The reason why Gilgamesh was so excited was that Mengxin was the best cook of the entire Jiang Dynasty, she had worked hard and learned to please Gilgamesh, Mengxin developed feelings for Gilgamesh over time, but she did not had shown nothing to anyone, she had fallen in love with Gilgamesh, for she believed that he was a charitable man who always helped the orphans by giving them the chance to grow up and have a decent job, children who were formerly hungry, and passing cold on the streets, were now brought to something that Gilgamesh called the tower of Uruk, there they would be literate, well fed and cared for, and all Gilgamesh asked for in return was to use the knowledge they learned there to help the Jiang dynasty so that no other child was abandoned, and that touched Mengxin.

The truth was that Gilgamesh helped these orphans not by being charitable but rather because he needed help because he could not arm the entire Jiang Dynasty alone, and without the dynasty he could not collect all the treasures efficiently, but that was something no one would ever know, for Gilgamesh had noticed that showing affection for the orphans increased his reputation throughout the dynasty, which in turn would make him have a softer government when he took the throne.

Gilgamesh's reputation was so good within the dynasty that if he killed Jiang Jin only to take the throne faster, and accused him of being a cruel man who wanted to give the dynasty to an enemy dynasty, no single commoner would doubt Gilgamesh and still would praise him for being a righteous man who had the courage to kill the father only for the common people.

After Gilgamesh and Ying Huan went to the dining room, while they were walking Gilgamesh talked with his mother telling some jokes to make her smile, Gilgamesh missed being close to Ying Huan, because he was very busy recently.

Gilgamesh was extremely attached to Ying Huan since he was young, he adored how calm she was and always had a warm smile on his face as he looked at him.

After reaching the dining room, Gilgamesh pulled the chair up so that Ying Huan could sit down, and then sat down beside her as the conversation continued.

Do not misunderstand Gilgamesh did not see Ying Huan as a lover, he only saw her as his mother and all the affection he possessed for him, was what a son would have for his mother.

As they talked, the other people in the family began to arrive, and they entered the conversation making the place very lively, the last to arrive was Jiang Jin who arrived with a giant smile on his face and said:

-Gilgamesh, I have good news for you. (Jiang Jin)

-What would be the good news?- (Gilgamesh)

-The Empress of the Ming Dynasty wants to arrange a meeting, and it seems she wants to discuss a possible political marriage between you and her.- (Jiang Jin)

-How do you know what she wants to discuss?- (Gilgamesh)

-His future father-in-law, he sent a letter and said that he threw the seeds so that both the Huang and Ming Dynasty surrendered to us during a meeting of the empires, and it seems that he indirectly gave an idea that a political marriage between you and her would be a good idea. (Jiang Jin)

Upon hearing this Gilgamesh smiled, for he had already received a letter from Ling Yu saying that she would persuade her father to do something like this, Gilgamesh was happy, for Ling Yu's efficiency was very surprising, and he loved women who were capable .

-That's great, and speaking of the meeting, I'm going to execute a traitor who's inside this palace soon, so I'd like you to start looking for a new eunuch to replace the traitor.- (Gilgamesh)

-I was thinking the same thing, I must admit I was really shocked that there were traitors among the eunuchs of the imperial palace. (Jiang Jin)

-There will always be idiots in the world, he dared betray our trust in him, so I will kill him and get rid of the problem.- (Gilgamesh)

Everyone at the table was silent, for everyone understood how Gilgamesh felt, after all Gilgamesh was improving the quality of life of all the citizens of the dynasty by betraying the confidence that the dynasty placed in the eunuchs was as if Kai Dong had stepped on the kindness of Gilgamesh .

-Well, I'll handle it after I kill that Long Shan cockroach, now answer me, Ming Li, is he really as handsome as they say?- (Gilgamesh)

-Yes, she is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and powerful women among all the dynasties, plus the fact that she is only 40 years old and already at the height of the Celestial Kingdom. (Jiang Jin)

-Call the meeting with her, I'll meet her, and if she's as beautiful as you say, I'll take her as one of my wives.- (Gilgamesh)

-Got you really, do you think it's that simple? She's the strongest woman I've ever met, I do not think she'll want to share you with others. (Jiang Jin)

-That's the difference between us, you care what she wants, I do not care. if I decide that a treasure is mine then it will be mine, the same applies to women, for just as the Sun is the absolute ruler of heaven, I am the ruler of the earth. (Gilgamesh) said the arrogance in his voice was clear, but no one thought he was wrong, everyone felt that he really was the ruler.

-Gilgamesh I've said that before, but your arrogance is a weakness, and it will still destroy you. (Jiang Jin)

-That's what you've never understood, father, it's not arrogance if you have the power to make it happen, and I can annihilate the whole life of this planet in a matter of minutes if I do not mind caring.- (Gilgamesh)

Gilgamesh was not lying, if he used any of the primordial runes and fed it with all his prana, he could destroy the whole planet, or if he decided to use Ea, he could also do the same.

-Gilgamesh, even if you can, does not mean that others can not do the same either. (Jiang Jin)

-While I'm in that place, that means just that, with the runes I put on this planet even a Martial Exalted could not scratch the planet, let alone destroy it. (Gilgamesh)

Gilgamesh had scattered countless runes throughout the territory of the Jiang dynasty, it was simply impossible for any Martial Exalted, to destroy the Jiang dynasty while they were active, he also placed several runes on the planet itself to ensure that no one could destroy it, how much the stronger Gilgamesh became, the greater the power of the runes which meant that the more difficult it would be to affect the planet, Gilgamesh did not care for the others as long as the security of his people was guaranteed and he had the resources, he did not care for the which would happen to the other dynasties.

-Gilgamesh I do not know what else to say to you, I warned you about what your arrogance might cause, if you refuse to listen, then there's nothing I can do. (Jiang Jin)

-I respect you, but the truth is that it is simply impossible for me to kill myself while I do not want to die, you have no idea of the true power that runes have, the ones I have taught for this dynasty are nothing more than circus tricks, compared to the real ones I'm not joking when I say I can kill all life on the planet, with the runes I really have that ability. (Gilgamesh) said trying to explain himself despite being arrogant he cared for his family.

-If what you say is true then why do you keep this kind of knowledge to yourself? (Jiang Long) asked with curiosity.

-Because he is too dangerous, unlike cultivation magecraft only needs the knowledge and the talent to use, if one who has both hand in this knowledge, everything that prevents him from destroying the world is the morality of the person , I would not risk your life for the ethics of a stranger. (Gilgamesh)

Everyone in the room came to an understanding, they understood why Gilgamesh did not make public knowledge, it was because the magecraft itself was too dangerous.

-But why did not you teach our family?- (Jiang Jin)

-Because you would have taught, for those snakes that you call concubines, and those mongrels you say are my brothers.- (Gilgamesh)

-GILGAMESH, I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO REFER TO THEM. (Jiang Jin) said furiously, he did not tolerate the fact that Gilgamesh treat his other brothers who were not sons of Ying Huan as unclean mongrels.

-If they were loyal to us I would not, but they are not and you know it, they just like that damn eunuch, from my point of view they are traitors, you know very well who was the techniques that I let loose inside if it were not because they were not very important, I would have killed their entire clan, so do not give me that shit to allow, for I have already shown all the mercy and love I could with these mongrels, the only one who saved from this situation is Jiang Yan, because at least he has honor, something that is lacking in all other mongrels in this palace. (Gilgamesh)

Ying Huan was the only wife of Jiang Jin, all other women were concubines, but Jiang Jin considered them his wives, because despite being a political marriage he still enjoyed them, and had children with some of them.

Jiang Jin had 5 concubines and they were:

From the Murong merchant family, Murong Xiao Fei, she was the first of the concubines to be married, and her family was of slave traders, and of ores, although her family was not as wealthy as Ying Huan's, they still they possessed exorbitant amounts of money.

Murong Xiao Fei had given birth to the Jiang Jin twins they were, Jiang Hai and Jiang Kai, they were two years younger than Gilgamesh.

The second concubine, Duong Tong's daughter, Tong Mi, her family was responsible for most of the grain supplies of the Empire, for it was the territory of Duke Tong who produced 40 percent of the whole grain of the current dynasty, the only reason they had such a high percentage was that Jiang Jin refused to move against the Tong to take their power away, although Gilgamesh had developed many rural areas, it was a fact that Jiang Jin still protected the Tong's sovereignty in relation to the Grains of the empire.

Tong Mi had a single son with Jiang Jin, he was Jiang Shi, Jiang Shi was three years younger than Gilgamesh, he was a genius, on the martial path and if Gilgamesh had not been born he might have taken the throne but with Gilgamesh in the Jiang Shi palace would never dare to revolt against him directly.

The third concubine was Duke Zheng's daughter, Zheng Mingyue, the Zheng were in charge of the armed forces, and Zheng Mingyue's father commanded 40 percent of the Golden Legion, which were the elites of the Jiang Dynasty.

Zheng Mingyue had a son with Jiang Jin, Jiang Zue he was older than Gilgamesh for a year, in a normal situation he would have the right to claim the throne, but just like Jiang Shi he did not dare because he knew the time when he would try to compete with Gilgamesh, it would be the moment when he would die.

The fourth Concubine, daughter of the president of the Jiang Dynasty's Mundane Spiritualist Association, she was Ma Xia, her father had a giant control over the association.

Ma Xia He had three children with Jiang Jin, Jiang Chang who was two years younger than Gilgamesh, Jiang Quon who was younger for a few months than Gilgamesh, and Jiang Mei who was the only female daughter besides Jiang Yini, Jiang Mei owned the same age as Jiang Yini.

The fifth concubine, which Gilgamesh considered most troublesome, and also to which he most respected his name was Zu Kumiko, for she was the daughter of the king of the barbarians of the east, the barbarians were warriors who before Gilgamesh were born, would cause fear to anyone who heard they were honored and would not kill the innocent, but there was no surrender or forgiveness for the enemy soldiers, they would kill even the last person, the barbarians did not retreat or feared death, for they were warriors who believed me the more enemies Kumiko was the only one among the concubines who dared to question Gilgamesh about his plans, and was also a worthy warrior who would not shame the honor and fame of the barbarians, Gilgamesh found she very similar with Iskandar, but a female version of it.

Jiang Jin's fifth concubine was Zu Kumiko and she had a son with Jiang Jin, her son was Jiang Yan, he was a month younger than Gilgamesh, and the only one he respected, unlike the other sons Gilgamesh considered pathetic at best Jiang Yan never bowed before Gilgamesh, but he also never showed challenge to the throne, because he understood that Gilgamesh was the strongest and like all who possess barbaric blood in the veins he respects the strongest.

What Gilgamesh said about leaking information refers to the fact that with the exception of Zu Kumiko and Jiang Yan, all others stole techniques from the palace and sent them to the families and powers behind them ranged from farming techniques to spiritual formations and techniques cultvo, Zu Kumiko and Jiang Yan on the other hand asked permission to share farming techniques what Jiang Jin allowed, Gilgamesh did not refuse too, because at least the two showed honor when asked, but as for the other Gilgamesh marked all of them as traitors.

-Even if you do not like them they're still your brothers. (Jiang Jin) said in a calmer tone, he knew that Gilgamesh was right, and what his sons had done was punishable by death, but he still did not want Gilgamesh to discriminate against them.

-They are not my brothers, I refuse to have cowardly people who have no honor as my brothers, the only one I recognize as worthy of that title among their 'MESTISTS' is Jiang Yan as to all others, I do not care with what happens to them, but if they betray me I kill each one of them, and if you try to protect them from me and I find out, I kill their concubines too, you know me enough to know if I will fulfill my threat or do not. (Gilgamesh) said in a serious tone.

Jiang Jin knew that Gilgamesh would fulfill what he had said, for Gilgamesh was always ruthless with his enemies, but he was a hundredfold with the traitors and that was how Gilgamesh regarded almost all Jiang Jin's concubines.

-Gilgamesh how can you be so relentless? Even though they are only your half brothers they are still blood of your blood. (Jiang Jin)

I already said my clemency ended the moment they leaked information, if any of their families planned a coup against the Jiang dynasty, and I did not have the power to protect everyone, you know what would happen? All I love would be dead, and that's because you did not have the balls to deal with them, I empower the family of my women, but always in a measure where I can destroy them all if I'm betrayed, but you know that they have no absolute loyalty to you and yet you still give power that could influence the whole dynasty, this goes beyond the stupid, sorry for my sincerity but except for my mother and Zu Kumiko you could not be worse in choosing women. (Gilgamesh) said leaving his point very clear, Gilgamesh despised the way Jiang Jin continued to protect people who were clearly plotting against them.

Everyone in the room fell silent, including Jiang Jin, for as much as he was frustrated, he could not refute what Gilgamesh said, he knew that what his sons and concubines had done was punishable by death, and being honest he knew the families of their wives ordered they would attempt to kill him, the only exceptions as Gilgamesh said were Zu Kumiko and Ying Huan.

-Do you see Dad?- Even you know that your concubines and children are not trustworthy, that's the difference between your choices and mine, if I empower someone, I'll guarantee that person is 100% loyal to me and if at any time that person betray me I kill her and everyone around her to ensure the safety of people who have not betrayed me no matter how much it may hurt me but you just because you like them ignores everyone's safety and puts our family's life at risk I feel sorry for my mother she deserved someone better. (Gilgamesh) said with sadness in his voice, he clearly clearly felt what he had said.

-GILGAMESH STOP ALREADY THAT, YOU SHOULD NOT TALK TO SUE DAD SO.(Ying Huan) shouted, she could not bear to hear her son say these things to Jiang Jin.

-Mother, if that's what you want, that's fine with me, but you should let my father think about it, because if something happened to you because he was too cowardly to act, I'm going to start a massacre and it's going to be much worse that moment. (Gilgamesh) said before getting up and leaving the room.

The silence descended over the dining hall, Ying Huan meant to Jiang Jin not take the matter too seriously, but she held herself back, knowing that it was really possible that Jiang Jin's concubines would try to act against her, and at that moment only death and destruction would wait for them, Ying Huan knew that Gilgamesh was not kidding when he said he was going to kill them all along with his children.

At that moment Jiang Long said:

-I hate to have to say that son, for I know how much you love them and I also really love my grandchildren, all of them, but Gilgamesh is right the moment they have decided to betray the trust placed in them, they have chosen their fate if you do not deal with it now, sooner or later Gilgamesh will and will believe it will be much worse, Gilgamesh has no pity for his enemies, no matter who they are. (Jiang Long) said, he was really sad about the situation because he knew that if Jiang Jin did not severely punish his other children along with their families, Gilgamesh would kill them all, an example was needed to demonstrate that no one was safe from punishment for treason.

-I know, father, but no matter how I look at it, they will end up dead, if I follow the laws of the dynasty, they will all have their crop crippled and then exiled to the Black Forest, this is basically a death sentence , but if I do not and they act against Gilgamesh or someone he loves, Gilgamesh will kill the last of them to make sure everyone understands that he will not tolerate any kind of rebellion and that the throne is his and hers alone. (Jiang Jin)

Jiang Wei who has been quiet so far said.

-Brother, do not get me wrong, but if you really want to avoid both scenarios there is a method, but keep in mind that if you use it, you'll probably get hatred from your concubines as well as from their families. (Jiang Wei)

-What is the method? (Jiang Jin)

-Make your sons take an oath of blood to never betray the dynasty's trust again, this is the only way Gilgamesh would trust them and only then will he not kill them, after all Gilgamesh does not want to kill his brothers.- (Jiang Wei)

Everyone in the room was shocked, an oath of blood was extremely brutal, this oath used the person's blood essence as a catalyst if one simply thought to break the oath, she would lose several years of her life, and if she tried to break it would die, there was no escape from this oath, for even with pious medicines that replenished the essence of blood, this oath would still drain faster than the remedy would restore.

-How could you suggest something like that?- It would basically make my other children a slave to Gilgamesh's will. (Jiang Jin) said furiously.

-I do not like this situation either, but be realistic, that's still better than getting killed if they take the oath, and with a little persuasion Gilgamesh could still leave them alive, but if they do not do something like this Gilgamesh oath goes kill them all along with their families, they have chosen to betray the trust of Gilgamesh, so they must deal with the consequences. (Jiang Wei)

Jiang Jin was silent, he knew that the situation had already reached a critical point, Jiang Wei's solution was feasible, however it was also extremely dangerous.

-I'll think about it.- (Jiang Jin)

While this discussion was happening Gilgamesh was lying in the garden again, he was thinking about how to handle the situation, he did not want to have to massacre the other children of Jiang Jin, as this would make his mother sad, but he also could not let them stay free as he knew that at some point they would try to deal with him, and surely they would attack their near people first.

-Well fuck that shit, I'll deal with it when the time comes, since no matter what they do they're still a long way from being able to seriously hurt anyone I love.- (Gilgamesh)

After deciding this Gilgamesh decided that it was time to start practicing his spiritual power, and meet Eggy and Xue Ji.
