Chapter 146: I recorded a few traitors



I never thought that there were this many relatives.

I shouldn\'t be surprised by this. As someone who belonged to the family which has a lot of awakeners, there are a lot of people that are quite old who should have been married to the members of the family.

One can live a long life by improving one\'s rank but has to deal with a lot of family members. I mean every year a few new relatives are added through birth or marriage. If a person was able to live for a hundred years or in many cases three hundred years, it means that they would have a lot of relatives.

Many would be connected through marriages that happened a long ago.

On Earth, people usually die around eighty years. So most relatives would be connected by one or two generations on both sides. With three-hundred-year-old people present in this world like cabbages, there are many relatives.

This means that my workload has increased by a lot. I am not sure that I can complete the work in these three days. I would work as much as I can and see how much I can uncover.

It doesn\'t matter if I uncover only a small fraction of filth. I can use that as a compass and completely pull all the filth from the family and also from a few relative families.

I am not a saint who would work for good without wishing anything in return.

I am someone who believes that there should be something one gains from their work. I am also not an idiot that believes everyone would get their fair share if they worked hard.

No, I am someone who knows that was not the case most of the time. What I want is that there should be some kind of compensation for the work, in one or another, though not in the same way one hopes so.

With too many relatives, there should be all kinds of filth merged in the family. So I need to make a priority of who to deal with first.

First, I need to get rid of the demon associates, if there are any. I know that there is one but I don\'t believe that he was the only one that they contacted or the only one that accepted deals with them.

I need to deal with them first because they might have something that can detect Inari. I can\'t let that happen. Whether they have such means or not, I can\'t take the risk. If I can remove this filth, then I can move easily, without others ever knowing that I have a demon as a companion.

Once I find who these demon associates are, I should get all the evidence that I can before eliminating them. Only this way, I can be at peace.

It was because, any member controlled by external forces is very dangerous, especially when that force is not even human. They don\'t share any bond with humans, so they won\'t feel any guilt when killing off humans.

This was especially true for many demon tribes.

Humans were one of the major races that were at war with demons. So it was common for demons to kill any humans that they encountered by chance or on purpose.

Though Glessaria was far away from that area, the demons don\'t care. It was the same with humans too.

Inari was from a subtribe of Lust. They don\'t fight to improve their strength. No, what they do involves sex and every lustful thing that exists or might exist in the future.

Even though that was the case, it didn\'t stop humans from entering their lands that were deep into the demon lands and killing them, sometimes even capturing and enslaving them.

From what I heard, in many nations, having slaves is legal.

In Glessaria, though there was no law regarding slaves, it wasn\'t accepted. This was because the only enemies that this kingdom had were either monsters or humans from other kingdoms.

Monsters are usually tamed and it doesn\'t come under enslaving as many regard that monsters have no intelligence or civilization-forming capabilities.

Though the same-race enslaving was said to have happened, it was very rare. In a world where there are many races, the chance of such a thing happening would be very rare.

So in Glessaria, there was no slavery but there was no prohibition on slavery resources and knowledge. It was through this, that I was able to enslave Inari back then, though I didn\'t treat her as a slave.

Anyway, I decided to deal with the demon associates first. Then I had to deal with the idiots who were causing losses to the family by taking bribes.

I mean, there should be many who were taking advantage of a huge family who would not spot any mistakes in their accounts easily.

I understand that many work for nobles for certain kickbacks, but there are many who would take too much. No matter what, bribes will never disappear but as long as we can control them, the economy of the family will not fail.

Net I have to deal with my assassins...no assassin taskmasters. I need to get rid of those elders or else no matter what I do, it would be worthless in the end.

I can\'t take them down on my own and that\'s why I took the help of Cosmic Market. With this help, it would be easier for me to collect the evidence.

---

Memory scanner, this is the name of the device that I bought from the Cosmic Market. It works similarly to Mind Probe skill but my skill level is too low for it to be effective. So, I had no choice but to buy this.

This will help me with finding the filth that was living in the family.

Since a lot of relatives appeared at this wedding, I decided to not only get the filth but any enemies of my family among the relatives.

Most of these relatives are related because someone was married into another house more than a hundred or two hundred years ago. If considered like this, almost every noble in Glessaria is connected to one or another nole house.

So even though on the surface it was maintained, they won\'t be treated the same under the surface.

Many would have thoughts of taking advantage of my family. That was not a nice thing but this is human nature. Even I would be the same, except I have certain rules that I won\'t cross.

I would take care of the assholes who would have no lines that cannot be crossed.

---

Now comes the hard part of the plan, the execution. Planning was never the hard part, the execution is the hardest as even a mistake can ruin everything.

In order to collect the evidence by using the device, I need them to relax their minds, rather than being defensive and controlled. It was easy of course with all that wine flowing around.

The hard part was my acting. For the Mind Reader to work, I need to be near them. If I am near that means I have to speak with them, and that too with a smile on my face and can only use polite words. It\'s a torture.

---

Two days went by. I recorded the thoughts of as many as I could. Tomorrow, my sister will get married. So I can\'t be busy with my plan of finding the filth of the family.

After tomorrow, I would leave too, along with most of the family relatives. Except for my grandparents from my mother\'s side and some others, they are just here to bless the couple. So they won\'t stay and I can\'t get anything more.

Whatever I got had to do.

I collected a lot of evidence. Well, I can\'t say that it is evidence but I know many of their filthy secrets and how to uncover them.

The only problem was that I would be away at the academy. So I can\'t do these things immediately.

Should I hand the work to my father or maybe my brothers?

My brothers wouldn\'t have resources that can be used to uncover all this shit.

I should give this to my father, not everything but regarding the details about the filth that was hiding in my family. As the viscount and the head of the family, this is his responsibility. About others, he couldn\'t do anything even if he had the evidence.

This was because he is a viscount and he can\'t punish others for crimes that don\'t come under his jurisdiction. He can only submit the evidence to the relevant authorities. These authorities would compensate my father appropriately for the efforts.

What happens to this evidence and the culprits, that don\'t come under my father\'s purview.

If they escape death, they will definitely seek revenge, one day or another in the future.

I should take care of that part. I can\'t let others write my story. Only I can and should.
