章節 9: Hatzok
"Let's stop talking about killing this and that."
"Let's create a road map of what I am going to do in near future."
He spun around in his chair like a kid.
"Currently, the Hatzok family is the tenth most powerful family in the kingdom out of the ten most powerful families..."
He paused.
"Although, that's only on the paper. This is how powerful we legally are but that's not even a half extant of our true power."
He again leaned back on the chair. He locked his hands behind his head and looked up at the ceiling.
"If we included our underground force then we are easily one of the top five most powerful families in the country."
"Remaining families are Aldia, Tracia, Elrod, and The royal family."
"These remaining families are far more powerful than Hatzok's total strength combine."
"On paper, we are a warrior clan and a business group that holds multiple businesses in the field of pharmaceuticals, guilds, and trade. Not only this we also hold a major share in multiple multi-billion corporations which makes us the third richest family in the kingdom in terms of wealth"
"That's only on the paper. In truth, we are one of the most powerful criminal organizations in the kingdom which everyone fears. We are a money and power-hungry family."
"We will do anything for money it doesn't matter if it is to assassinate, torture, sell people into prostitution, or even worse. It didn't matter as long as you pay us."
"We don't care if the target is a kid or an adult. We will do whatever the client requests us to do. We have killed many prominent figures in and outside the country in the most gruesome way as per our client's request."
Their client's request was their highest priority. They would not hesitate to do anything if they laid enough money. They would never hesitate to kill, sell people, or rape if their clients requested it, irrespective of the targets' age and gender.
"The world knew about us and our shady works but they couldn't do anything because if we had something more powerful than strength and it
was information."
"That power of that information was more than enough to cause a civil war that's one the reason no family ever tried to fight us head-on."
"Secondly, we have many people working in the government."
Even though everyone had a hostile association with them, they would never do something stupid to go for them directly. It was foolish bravery.
It was because the amount of information and power they held was terrifying; if a bit of it were to spread, it would result in bloodshed.
They used all for this everything they possessed in their favor. They wouldn't let anyone off the hook if they had damaged them. They would annihilate them and their families, even the kids.
The most powerful weapon they had was all the information at their disposal. It was much stronger than physical or military strength. They utilized all the information at their disposal, incredibly, to benefit themselves.
They had strategized everything so that no one would get a hold of their flaws, even if they did, they would make sure that couldn't be used against them. Their intelligence along with their strength made them survive for this long.
"These people wouldn't spare their own children if something was leaked because of them. It created a feared image in the heart of people who were affiliated with us."
Their ruthless nature created a terrifying image in their members. They wouldn't dare spill a word outside the family about anything. Whatever happened inside and stayed inside.
It was one of the reasons other families didn't know what they were planning. No one could penetrate them. They were hideous and unprecedented.
"There wasn't so much detail about this family in the novel. I get to know all of this because of the memories of Lloyd. This family is indeed terrifying."
He broke out a cold sweat and his voice also trembled in fear.
"This alone accounts for at least then seventy-five percent of our revenue."
"..."
"But according to the novel this family is set to become much more powerful when I forcefully takeover this family at the age of 18."
He flicked his pen.
"The current patriarch of the family is Masius Si Hatzok. He is the 50th strongest person on the continent of Helix and the 10th stronger in the country. He is an S-class magic swordsman just like my father."
"My father Arthur Di Hatzok was much more powerful than but he was backstabbed by him along with the other members of the family my mother also died the same day as him."
His father Arthur was an S-class peak hunter, whereas Masius was only a beginner. After Arthur died his place was seized by his older brother Masius, who killed him with the help of other members of the family.
"This was easy for him as the elders helped him to accomplish it. After he became the patriarch he either killed or oppressed those who weren't supporting him. I was only Banished to a border town called Naptia."
"Although I am not sure about it the reason might be because they deemed me as useful and decided to use me and when I was no longer useful to them they tried to poison me."
As the reason wasn't known he could only make speculations about why he wasn't killed. In the end, he shouldn't find the think why he is alive, but think about how he should stay alive.
"This is how I will be proceeding."
He wrote his last stroke on he had completed his plan. All he had to do was now to implement it.
"I will regain my status in the family by force!"
"It may sound absurd but that's the fastest way to access any kind of resources. If I can make it there in just a year then that will help me to increase my strength by a lot."
He knew the risks that would come along if he were to return to the main family. It was like going inside a tiger's den naked. The plan sounded ridiculous and outlandish, but it had a chance to succeed and he was going against the odds.
"There are chances that I will be able to achieve my goal and that's why I am going to take the chances."
"Of course, I won't be going back in my current shape. I will train until I make my return as the genius of the sword. So, they will hesitate to kill me at the very least."
He knew that if he returned to his current state then he would be killed immediately at the front gate. So, he decided to make a name for himself before returning to the family.
The fame would at least make them a little anxious before killing him. It would be suspicious that a genius like him was killed in one of the safest places. He wanted to buy time for himself.
He wasn't interested in living in the shadows of his fame. He was going to use his fame as a cover.
"I know there still are infinitely many ways they could kill him without any sort of worry but as I mentioned I also have many ways to survive."
