Arriving at Oubon for the business talk... We were welcomed by a lot of guards on the coast. Of course, they didn't know about the Rhea Absolut because we just arrive so suddenly like we just teleported to them.
"Welcome Sire. Do you want us to guide you straight to the castle or do you want us to f**k off?"
The Guards were straight as hell. They know what we wanted. And that is for them to f**k off. So, we said it. We told them that we wanted them to f**k off and they did. They leave us alone and then we started making our way to the castle on our own pace...
"Alfredo. Are you sure that the way we're going to give him the Mining Rig is going to be effective and safe? It's not going to drop down to the castle from Rhea Absolut right?"
"Well, It's not safe, that's for sure. But that doesn't matter because in the end, it is a mining rig. If you drop it from the sky, nothing would be safe..."
"... No... I mean, it's not going to destroy their castle right? We're going to talk to Ivan for a bit before eventually we put the mining rig down right?"
"Yeah. But it's an obvious case. There's no way that I would shoot the Mining rig down to the Castle. I would put it to the ground outside the castle. If that's what you're worried about, don't worry. It's all safe."
Mashura sigh in relief. It seems like she's a bit worried with what I've planned. Don't worry Mashura. Even though I'm a scammers, there's no way that I didn't look to that type of matter. I would do something as safely as I could possibly do it.
And there's no way that I'm a savage enough human being to shoot that massive rig to the castle. It would kill everyone upon impact... It's that big...
Anyway... I would still do my scam plan though.
We go to the castle and without any hesitation, we go straight to the throne room to waste less time... Mashura and I are not keen on wasting time on meeting like this. In the future, if Talia want to join me. I will choose her to take over the role of this... I just hate it...
"Welcome back, Mister Alfredo and Miss Mashura. Just like how we planned... We meet again. Presumably, you've brought the goods that you promise us right?"
I just nodded lightly and then give him a piece of paper. Telling him what I give him... And he smiles big when he sees what I wrote... Good, it seems like he has taken the bait.
'Mashura. Keep an eye on the guards okay? If they started to get riled up when me and Ivan talk.. Immediately take care of them.'
'Alright. I will make them regret raising their hand against the King and Queen of Rhea.'
I trust Mashura with that task... I look at Ivan and then call him out.
"So, I've given you that amount of Mining Rig and Equipment. Of course, Because I made it using my own material... There's a p*****t for that right?"
"Of course! Of course! As a thank you. I will give you a free land where you can reign supreme! With this Mining Rig and Equipment. I can at least strengthened the guards and then finally get all the resources we desperately needed."
Good good... Every single thing has been moving how I wanted it to move... Now, let's push a bit more...
"Speaking of which Ivan. You told me that I can have a free land where I reign supreme right? Does this mean, you're giving me a part of your area?"
"Of course. I trust you that you won't swindle me right? I trust you that you will be giving us your support. And because of that, I will give you my support."
I see... Well then, I'm not the type of person who's going to betray someone. But I am the type of person that would scam my own ally. I think, scamming is a part of my life because, I can't really trust anyone other than my own crew...
So, Scamming them would make me feel less bad when they eventually leave me...
"It's okay. I'm not really a betrayer. If you need my help regarding a truly strong creature... Then just tell me. But of course, just call us as a last ditch effort. Since I, myself... Has my own country to worry about."
"Alright. I trust you then. Thank you for coming and I will look forward to your supply drow. And also, if you find the area that you want, tell me where."
Mashura and I immediately walk out of the Throne Room and then using my Drone, I scout an area that is good for me to drop the Mining Rig. And it's right on the side of the castle. A massive field that used to train around and play around... I put the Three Mining Rig that has yet to be put together and also Fifteen Set of Brand new Armor...
That much stuff for a territory free of taxes. I'll take it any day...
"Good job on doing your scam, Alfredo."
"Thank you. Not my proudest moment though."
"Fair. It is just a scam moment after all... It's not something to be proud of. But at least we get something quite incredible from it."
"Exactly..."
Sooner or Later, I will make Ivan realize that we're more valuable as an ally than a normal tool... If he think of me as a tool, then so be it... When I help Oubon once again from any dire situation... That's when he realize that. I'm not a tool.. I'm his Rival. He won't be able to deny that and then he would rely more and more toward me... Giving me a full control of my movement in this kingdom as well..
It's all a part of a bigger plan in the future... Scamming is just the beginning of my plan... In the future, I will make Oubon kneeled for me because they think they can use me... While in fact, I'm using them.
