Iron Blooded Hound-Chapter 111 - : Sins of the Bloodline

Moonlight shone via the window, illuminating The Shadow's face.

Vikir loosened his grip on her throat.

The face under the golden-blonde bob was revealed.

Sindhiwendi. She had are available in person when she heard of Vikir's return.

She winked at Vikir.

"Why don't you simply keep on with what you're doing, you aren't bad at it."

"cut the crap and tell me what you're here for."

Vikir slid off of Sindhiwendi's body and sat on the threshold of the bed.

She rubbed the lower back of her neck, which have been so tight just moments earlier than, and smirked.

"nonetheless residing with out a shoulder. Don't you ever lose interest of getting in a directly line like that?"

"earlier than I slap your ass and kick you out. brief."

"Wow, he's a massive boy. Are you sure you're seventeen? You seem like you're 40... or fifty."

She lay at the mattress at an angle, elevating most effective her higher frame as if she owned it.

She squinted up at Vikir.

"with the aid of the manner. You sent a minion after me. How did you know where i used to be?"

"From the manner you've acted in the beyond. Going to a crooked capitalist, constructing up believe by using telling him of his wealth, and then stealing it all away."

"Excuse me. I'm a economic planner, and i am getting paid for my paintings."

A flower woman who had once collected a exquisite deal of wealth thanks to Vikir's special legal guidelines.

thanks to Vikir's protection, which included a bodyguard, she became capable of maintain her cash and lead a secure life.

however it's not pretty much maintaining the money. She didn't realize how to spend it or what to name it.

Sindhiwendi took benefit of that and approached the woman to work as a economic planner.

"She's doing well as a massive sister now, and that i've already given her a whole lot of money. perhaps it's because she's so excellent and innocent, however she might were scammed if it become just everybody however me."

"I've even given him a bodyguard to guard him."

"Bodyguards? Aren't they just there to protect people? Do they weed out scammers?"

"The bodyguards covered monetary experts, and that i had ordered them to weed out the scammers."

At that, Shindywendy seemed at a loss for words.

"the ones bodyguards... didn't contact whatever, so I concept you had been absolutely out of touch with finance. What?"

At her phrases, Vikir nodded.

"You're right. I even ordered them to permit you to get close."

Vikir had thought that if phrase got out that the flower woman had ten billion, Sindhiwendi will be the first to approach her.

That became Vikir's bait and switch to trap her in, to discover her.

in the end, the 10 billion dollar bait didn't exercise session, as Vikir caught her proper away on the slave auction, however it did help him locate her later.

After understanding all of this, Sindiwendy flopped down at the bed with a dejected look on her face.

"No way. i used to be questioning how that Chihuahua man knew where i was and sent the telegram, but I've been playing proper into your arms the whole time. I'm dumbfounded."

"once more."

"...You're such an as*hollow."

Sindiwendy grumbled for a second, then slipped her hand inner her chest.

A wad of crumpled paper emerged from her chest.

She tossed the stack of papers at Vikir.

"these are the materials you requested for."

"...Hmm. next time, positioned them within the folder."

Vikir opened the stack of papers from Xin Diwendi.

It was a listing of those who would be venerated on the first-rate dinner party tomorrow.

"I knew I'd be invited to the excellent banquet after all my difficult paintings. It's an excellent component I did my studies in advance.

It changed into to Vikir's credit score that Sindiwendy had come the night earlier than the incredible feast.

however.

"but that's best 1/2 of it."

Sindiwendy opened her mouth.

whilst Vikir looked up, Sindiwendi pointed to her different breast.

"I'll give you the rest when you pay the statistics rate."

"An records fee?"

"Did you believe you studied you were going to get it free of charge?"

At that, Vikir nodded silently.

Then. Vikir pulled something out of his pocket and tossed it to Sindiwendi.

...With a pop!

Cindy Wendy's eyes widened as she stuck it.

What landed in her palm turned into a white, pointed tooth. It become the fang of an oxbear.

She stared at Vikir in disbelief.

"That's it? Are you kidding me?"

Of direction, an oxbear's teeth is priceless. they could fetch millions of gold if they were carved into chess pieces.

but if it's an facts fee, it's too cheap.

Sindiwendy changed into approximately to bitch, but Vikir cut her short.

"There are thousands, tens of hundreds more find it irresistible."

"...?"

Sindhiwendi stopped what she changed into about to mention and pricked up her ears.

Vikir spoke once more.

"in case you pay attention to me, you can get a cartload of them each year."

He was talking about exchange with all the natives of the whole jungle, which include the Balak.

Vikir is now a hero to his enemies and to all of the natives who live within the depht of the Black Mountain.

In this kind of Vikir-led trade, the natives might gladly give up their antlers, gums, shells, muffins, and different precious forest products.

From the Empire's factor of view, the alternate couldn't be more useful, and the Hierarchy or Guild that would oversee this massive change might be pleased.

Mega deal.

If the alternate definitely takes vicinity, it's going to open up the distribution of luxurious items on a scale in no way before visible in history.

Fund managers, financial planners, and others would be dazzled.

mainly for the likes of Sindhiwendy, a gold-digger, it changed into an funding he couldn't skip up.

Her mouth is watering and her eyes are glistening.

With a gleam in her eye, she pulled out the relaxation of the materials and thrust them in Vikir's route.

"Do you think the barbarians will open up alternate?"

"Of path."

With the assist of all the tribes, Vikir should pull off this megadeal of epic proportions.

It become the seed of a storm that might end the struggle and create infinite different financial phenomena.

And proper now, there are handiest those who know approximately it, Vikir and Sindhiwendi, who has simply heard about it.

Sindhiwendi picked herself up in a polite manner and sat down on her knees along with her legs crossed in front of every other, showing Vikir the 2 documents.

"I bet I'll have to name you boss to any extent further."

"As you want."

Vikir didn't seem to care approximately the name and went instantly to the papers.

First got here the primary and most curious report.

It become about Pomeranian's identity.

First granddaughter of Hugo Les Baskervilles, head of the Baskervilles family.

anticipated age is five years antique. it is a recognized truth that Hugo and his first wife, Roxana, are Penelope's children.

.

.

Vikir's interpretation changed into based on what he had heard from Butler Barrymore in advance.

Upon nearer exam, the Pomeranian proved to be an immediate descendant of Hugo.

Hugo had married a woman named Roxana when he became twenty years vintage.

She had given birth to Penelope l. a. Baskerville at the same time as with Hugo and died in warfare.

Later, Penelope l. a. Baskerville died in an unexplained accident and changed into captured via hunters from the Rococo tribe.

She gave start to a daughter, Pomerian, and died.

"There's something approximately this unexplained accident, too."

Vikir notion as he checked out the bottom of the document.

nicely, some thing.

Hugo's first daughter, Penelope, had disappeared about a yr earlier than Vikir was born.

Hugo become about forty-one at the time, so the timeline regarded to fit.

The reality that it became genuine turned into a alleviation. Vikir flipped to the subsequent bankruptcy of the book.

the next page particular the official listing of humans scheduled to attend the dinner day after today.

Rank: Patriarch

name: Marquis

name: Swordmaster

other: Hugo Les Baskerville has a total of ... children, which include direct descendants, illegitimate youngsters, and followed kids out of doors of his lineage or bloodline. ...

(not noted underneath)

.

.

It's no wonder that Hugo, the patriarch, is at the top of the list.

It was the following one that mattered.

.

Ranks: Knights of the Pit Bull – Knight Commander, Senator

name: depend

identify: Graduator best

different: half of-brother of the Baskerville circle of relatives patriarch, Hugo Les Baskervilles.

Very belligerent and temperamental, hating to be tied down.

.

.

A Boston Terrier, a Knight Commander of the Knights of the Pitbull, is by some means gift at the extraordinary ceremonial dinner.

he's one of the elite of the elite, main one of the seven Knights of the residence of Baskerville, and is also one of the "Seven Counts," representing the family's navy would possibly.

"For someone who typically dislikes formal and formal occasions like the exquisite ceremonial dinner,... why is he attending?"

Vikir scratched his head and flipped to the following web page.

As predicted, he sees an sudden call.

.

Rank: Knights of the Mastiff – Knight Commander, Senator

name: be counted

title: Graduator splendid

other: 1/2-brother of the Baskerville own family patriarch, Hugo Les Baskervilles.

he's reserved and reticent, unwilling to pretend to be some thing but, and has a especially awful courting with the be counted of Boston Terrier.

.

.

The outstanding Dane, leader of the Mastiff Knights, is likewise officially confirmed to wait the superb ceremonial dinner.

He is also a member of the seventh be counted, one of the pillars of Baskerville's army spine.

They don't typically attend occasions within the circle of relatives, so why are they attending the terrific dinner party?

specifically while it's being hosted by using their half-brother, who's a bit of a pain in the ass to observe.

while Vikir scratched his head, Sindiwendy smirked.

"Are you even thinking about why they're coming?"

"sure."

"You really don't recognize, do you?"

Sindhiwendi pointed an index finger at Vikir in disbelief.

"It's due to you, I don't recognize why!"

"...?"

Vikir frowned, and Shindiwendi defined.

"normally, the Senators, inclusive of the 7th rely, don't intrude in the circle of relatives's internal affairs, so why would they arrive to the Urrrr first rate ceremonial dinner all of sudden? They're coming to look you, the younger legend of the Baskerville own family who lower back alive!"

"Urrr? Are there others coming?"

"Don't be alarmed, all seven counts have asked to attend this super banquet."

Vikir become a little amazed at that.

Seven counts.

typically, they're not often seen by using the lesser hounds of Baskerville in their complete lives.

but the most effective two that had controlled to make it onto the authentic listing were a Boston Terrier and a high-quality Dane.

Sindiwendi chuckled.

"I heard that each one the opposite Knights Templar leaders have been deployed a long way away, so it might take them a long term to return domestic. handiest the Boston Terrier and the super Dane, who had been despatched out on missions closer to domestic, have been capable of make it in time, and even then, they'll be arriving in a rush."

"Hmmm. I don't think they're just curious to peer my face."

"Of route not. They're right here because they need to take you into their order, to set their points of interest on a future knight, and that they've heard that apart from Boston Terriers and top notch Danes, all of the other knights are stomping their feet due to the gap."

The high-quality feast is a unprecedented event that simplest direct blood loved ones can attend, in an effort to't send a proxy.

So best two of the seven counts, who have been exceedingly close by, rode thru the night time in excellent spirits to go back home.

"We'll see tomorrow. I'll be bombarded with scouting gives for a while."

Sindiwendi giggled.

The top of two orders, the Pit Bull Knights and the Mastiff Knights, rumored to be at odds with each different.

And with a very tasty piece of meat among them.

possibly a Boston Terrier or a wonderful Dane, or both, will try to win Vikir over to their order.

" however Vikir's reaction is short.

" ... I'm now not inquisitive about both of them."

He just hopes it doesn't come to that.

Vikir read the following files

At this point, important figures started to appear.

.

Rank: Member of the residence of Representatives

name: Viscount

identify: Graduator very best

different: The eldest son of Hugo Les Baskervilles, the patriarch of house Baskerville. currently first in line of succession.

.

.

the following era of Baskervilles.

a cold, heartless genius. An extremely-elite who's developing up to be what Hugo as soon as become.

He can already draw six tooth with the end of his blade, and his swordsmanship is stated to be on par with that of the Seven Counts.

Rumor has it that he'll quickly reach the rank of Swordmaster.

"...Osiris."

Vikir turned into silent for a moment.

before his regression, Vikir had seen Osiris a few times as a child, at a distance.

He changed into extraordinarily reticent and bloodless.

He in no way said hello to all and sundry, no longer even his personal siblings, not to mention those of his direct lineage.

but it wasn't as if he had brothers who may want to communicate to him earlier than his overwhelming ability and air of secrecy.

So he was continually on my own. A solitary, tortured genius.

Sindiwendi looked at him and stated.

"aside from the Patriarch and the Seven Counts, he need to be the strongest inside the Baskerville family, proper?"

"...."

"No, maybe you're more...?"

Sindiwendi sneakily tried to gauge Vikir's fight power.

Vikir shrugged it off and turned the page.

Rank: Underdog city Justice of the Peace-Councilor

title: Viscount

Rank: Intermediate Graduator

other: 2d son of Hugo Les Baskervilles, the patriarch of residence Baskerville. presently second in line of succession.

.

.

the next presence turned into one that became nevertheless shiny in Vikir's memory.

Set Baskerville.

His skills for swordsmanship became a ways inferior to his older brother's, and he had been particularly sickly from an early age.

So even if his brother Osiris turned into knighted for his prowess in struggle towards demons, he turned into best given the honorary identify of Viscount.

His character turned into surprisingly mild and affectionate for a Baskerville, but this handiest made him seem weak and withdrawn to Hugo.

Hugo turned into specifically cold and strict together with his 2nd son, Set.

Set, but, by no means misplaced his gentle nature.

He became the only one within the circle of relatives to shed a tear for the hounds dying like rubbish.

Vikir had seen Set lay chrysanthemums on the memorial extra than once.

"Hmph. I heard you had been in schooling for the last ceremony... however you have to have stepped out to attend the awesome feast."

Vikir flipped through the information.

As he read slowly, his expression have become more and more expressionless.

Then.

Vikir spotted a familiar name at the bottom of the report.

Rank: Academy Candidate

name: young master (Shadow)

Rank: Sword expert advanced

other: Direct descendant of Hugo Les Baskervilles, patriarch of residence Baskerville.

.

.

.

.

Rank: Academy Candidate

title: young master (Shadow)

Rank: Sword professional superior

different: Direct descendant of Hugo Les Baskervilles, patriarch of house Baskerville.

.

.

"another set of unexpected names."

Vikir closed the file with a dry chortle.

He became beginning to sit up for tomorrow's outstanding dinner party.
