Chương 136: To the heart of the Empire (Part 4)

Indeed, my acting was just part of a bigger plan because acting like I was devoted to the Empire would help me achieve my goals.

However, it was an essential part of the plan. After all, there were certainly strong individuals within the Empire, and even though I wasn't in the least scared of them, taking them head-on would be just pure foolishness.

The 'elite of the elite' act would certainly attract a lot of attention, but at least I would not antagonize those people. And even if some butthurt Lord attacked me, it would give me an excuse to crush them one by one. That way, I would be able to determine the power balance within the Empire, after all, only the fools would do such a thing and I would be able to narrow down the list of suspects, so I was killing two birds with one stone.
