Chapter 102: CHAPTER 101



Oliver and his team who had just ambushed the men who would attack the Heavenly Palace heard the news on their way back, so he quickly went to Andrew to report.

In the office, Andrew, Carolina, and Helena listened to Oliver\'s report, "Young master, the attackers have been eliminated". At Oliver\'s comment, Andrew just nodded and then said.

"Give me more details", then Oliver began to narrate what happened. Thanks to the information provided by Aki, they knew the time and the number of enemies they were facing, but they didn\'t know which route they would take.

In the end, 30 armed men could not walk as a group through the red light district without attracting attention, so Oliver suspected that they would be divided into several groups, he intuited that they would be groups of 5 members or less and he was not mistaken.

However, guessing that did not make things easier for him, on the contrary, it made it difficult for him to counter them, even so, Oliver demonstrated his capabilities as a strategist, which no one knew he had.

He worked under the assumption that the 30 thirsty men would divide into groups of 5 people and attack the Heavenly Palace from different directions. Oliver was able to deduce this because it was the most basic tactic in the book to conquer a fortress and it was to surround the place.

Knowing this, it was very easy for Oliver to find the best routes to carry out that plan and his theory was proven when they found the attackers.

Oliver also divided his men and stationed them in strategic places on those routes armed with crossbows they waited for their enemies to appear and when they did, they were showered with countless arrows.

Carolina and Helena were surprised because they did not understand how Oliver had the ability to deduce the enemy\'s plan and establish a countermeasure in a short time, however, Andrew was not surprised.

Since Andrew had bought Oliver in the slave house, he had only cared about his blessing and a little about his past, more specifically how he became a slave, but shortly after noticing that Oliver was deeper than the sea, he decided to dig a little

It turned out that Oliver was not a minor character, he was actually the general of the army of the extinct country of Nufa, which was a small country close to the Cannaris empire that was the country in which they were.

About five years ago the empire of Cannaris invaded Nufa defeating the small country that went down in history. Oliver had not fallen into slavery due to debts incurred in buying medicine for his family as was believed, as he had no family, so he did not need any medicine.

What happened was that he was quite a clever tactician and when he saw that the war was lost, he faked his death and posed as a beggar looking for valuables from corpses on the battlefield.

There he was captured, but since he was never identified, he was sold as a low-level slave. Normally generals like Oliver have great pride in the country they represent and would rather die on the battlefield than run, but Oliver didn\'t think so.

It turns out that the war between Cannaris and Nufa was not caused by Cannaris but by the king of Nufa. This kingdom, despite being small in territory, was rich in minerals, which is why they had quite an advanced metallurgical industry and for that reason, the nobles of that country had fallen into arrogance.

Possessing advanced technology, they believed they owned the world and began to harass their neighbors, managing to win several battles against small kingdoms that bordered on them, which fed their ego even more.

Oliver as an army general was not as stupid as his ruler and nobles, he knew that although they had won several battles that was against less developed countries than them and he also knew that being close to the Cannaris empire which is one of the three large kingdoms on the continent would be in trouble if they continued to be so arrogant.

That is why he advised the king to give up his crusade and concentrate on stabilizing the interior of the country, especially the recently annexed territories, but drunk on the newly acquired power, they ignored him.

His arrogance reached such a level that they launched an attack on Cannaris terrain seizing one of the empire\'s border cities and that was the straw that broke the camel\'s back.

The empire was not bothered by the small country\'s movements, but when it bared its fangs at them, they responded with force, then the king and the nobles of Nufa knew the difference in power.

The war lasted exactly two months, and the kingdom of Nufa ceased to exist. Only Andrew knew Oliver\'s story, so he wasn\'t surprised at his commanding ability.

In the office, Andrew who finished listening to Oliver\'s report smiled and said, "Good job, even if I want you to rest, tonight is bound to be long, please stay alert."

Oliver nodded at Andrew\'s comment and when he saw that his boss was going to ask him to leave he spoke again, "Young master, on my way back I heard some important news that I think you might want to know."

Andrew\'s curiosity got the better of him and he promptly asked, "Tell me, what did you hear?" Oliver made a short pause as if organizing his thoughts, and after a few seconds, he began to talk.

"On the way, many people were discussing an explosion and the robbery of two establishments, which if I\'m not mistaken belong to the men who attacked us, I assume that Aki accomplished her mission."

Oliver\'s news surprised and cheered up the girls. On the other hand, Andrew asked for more details with a troubled expression, "Explosion? Is Aki alright?"

Before Andrew\'s questions, Carolina and Helena realized that they had been happy for no reason because this information did not say that Aki was fine, it only said that an explosion and a robbery had occurred.

"The explosion must have been caused by Aki, I discussed different plans with her before she left, and based on what she had told me about the structure of one of the treasuries, I proposed that plan as a last resort," Oliver said calmly.

"So you\'re saying that Aki should be fine?" Andrew asked, still worried, to which Oliver replied with a smile, "Don\'t worry young master, that girl won\'t go down so easily, I\'ve trained with her and I know her strength and if the men who guarded those places are like the ones who attacked us, she won\'t have any problems."

Andrew trusted Oliver\'s judgment, so he breathed a sigh of relief to hear him give his prediction of success. Oliver then finished giving him some additional details of what he had heard, but it wasn\'t relevant information, so after telling him to keep his guard up, he dismissed Oliver.

While Andrew and the others were chatting in the Heavenly Palace office, a meeting was also taking place in Candice\'s office in the Cherry Blossom. Present in it were Gastón, Candice\'s intelligence chief named Vala, the cold butler Erick, and Candice.

They all sat in a set of office furniture quietly drinking some tea. However, after a few minutes, a man appeared from the shadows and bowed.

"Report," Vala said coldly without looking at the newcomer, then the man began to speak, "Zoltan\'s three treasure vaults were secured and looted, plus the shadow agent already killed the old man and secured Canotto\'s wealth".

The man\'s voice was monotonous, without fluctuations or feelings of any kind, as if he lacked emotion. This time it was Candice who spoke, "Good job, you will be well rewarded for your work."

The man showed no emotion, just nodded, and left, then the office fell silent again. After a few seconds, Candice spoke again, "What happened to the Heavenly Palace?"

Vala instantly replied with a voice similar to that of the man who had already left, "I was informed that about 30 men marched to attack them, but they were easily slaughtered by Mr. Andrew\'s men. There are also reports that the establishments of Rufal, Dinocal, and Canotto were attacked, but it is unknown if they were the men of Mr. Andrew or the old Zoltan".

Then Gastón spoke next, "Since the Canotto wealth was in the hands of old Zoltan, it could be deduced that the other two establishments were attacked by Mr. Andrew."

The other three nodded their heads as if to say that they shared Gastón\'s thoughts. It was true that there could be a different group that would do such an operation, but the probability was very small.

Seeing that everything had been resolved, Candice clapped her hands and as she got up from her seat said, "Well, tomorrow we will know everything from Andrew himself, for now our goal was achieved, good job everyone, you can retire to rest."

They all got up, but before leaving, Candice spoke again, "Gastón take an inventory of the operation and notify me, give Canotto\'s wealth to Vala so that her agents can enjoy a little."
