I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Luxury hotel lounge.

Thomas, my merchant, arranged the hotel, which was a historic luxury hotel.

It is truly the extreme of futility, but this is the use of money that seems to be a bad lord.

I sit on the couch, I put my legs together, and I see the two people I met at Thomas' agency.

Elliot, in a suit with blonde hair in seventy-three, is the young head of the Krabe Chamber of Commerce - the chairman.

He's in his early twenties, and he's actually still young.

Nico is smiling.

"Thank you for seeing me today"

Sitting next to it is Patrice, an executive of the Newlands Chamber of Commerce.

Red hair, green eyes.

Are suits that emphasize the chest also aimed at colour tricks?

"It is a great pleasure to meet with the famous Count - no, Liam, who will eventually become Duke."

Beautiful women fool me with their sweet voices, but I don't like women with these hands.

- I remember my ex-wife from a previous life.

Flashy women apparently aren't my taste.

If you look at Thomas, what a shrink.

"Dear Liam, they really want to talk to you two today. It's about your merchant."

A big merchant and an executive from Capital Star came to me wanting to be my merchant.

Because it is larger than Thomas' Chamber of Commerce, it is likely to be useful in a variety of ways.

You're my merchant.

"Yes, I would love to help you, Master Liam. The Krabe Chamber of Commerce is also a merchant of the Empire and a merchant with tradition and history. I'm sure it'll help."

If Elliot smiles and says so, Patrice next door also appeals.

"Sure, the Krabe Chamber of Commerce is a fingerprint on the capital star, but my Newlands Chamber of Commerce does business all over the empire. I think the Newlands Chamber of Commerce, which is widely supported by the Lords, will help Liam."

I love guys who sell their flair.

But - there's a back to a good story.

And I'm not even gonna trust a guy who just says he wants to help me or anything.

"My merchant is Thomas. You understand what it means to interrupt there?

Thomas was a dick.

You should be more dignified.

Elliot will persuade me by adding a gesture.

"Of course it is. I'm not looking to kick out the Henfree Chamber of Commerce or anything like that. However, we would be happy to use the Krabe Chamber of Commerce."

The same goes for Patrice.

You two smile at me, and I'll tell you about the future.

If you put your hands together with us, I'll do this - but it was too convenient for me.

"- So? What's your purpose?

When I ask, both Elliot and Patrice ask with a sticky smile.

"Is that a purpose? I'm a merchant, too. Naturally, I'm thinking about making money."

"The Newlands Chamber of Commerce highly values the Banfield family for its momentum in dropping flying birds"

I've looked closely at the smile like I've stuck it out.

That's my ex-wife's smile.

I will still remember the face of the woman who has deceived me.

"Stop that sticky smile."

That said, the expression disappeared from Elliot.

"It was a rumor of a loving famous man, but there are still things you won't know until you face to face."

Patrice smiles, but not of the same quality as earlier.

It seems like a lot of fun, but I feel like I'm in a hurry.

"Is that who you are? But as far as I'm concerned, I like it."

"Right. So? What do you guys want from me?

Thomas will explain to me when the atmosphere has changed.

"Dear Liam, what you two are looking for is the power of the Banfield family."

"That's a reasonable place. I just can't believe the big merchants are counting on me."

Many merchants want to do business using the Banfield family signs.

However, these guys must already have a nobleman on whom they rely.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be a big dealer.

He is an imperial merchant, such as the Krabe Chamber of Commerce.

You shouldn't need a Banfield family sign or anything.

Elliot joins hands in front of his mouth.

"I just sat on our Lord's throne a few years ago. There's a lot of clashes with executives."

This is his circumstance, but he's too close to a nobleman with the Krabe Chamber of Commerce itself.

"You have trouble with a lot of people who think you can manipulate like a young man. - Actually, I was a little concerned about my father's death, and I looked into it, but he was assassinated."

I guess there's a lot going on at the big chamber of commerce.

"Why don't you cry to the Empire?

"It's the Krabe Chamber of Commerce, not me, that needs an empire. And the Empire has a lot of hands on the people who killed my father."

Seems like he wanted to get a nobleman to support him as much as the executives would say.

When I turn my gaze to Patrice, he tells me what's going on - but this one was an ambitious one.

"Unlike Lord Elliot, who went into protection, I want the Newlands Chamber of Commerce."

Elliot doesn't seem funny, but I was intrigued.

"Keep going."

"The Newlands Chamber of Commerce has many relatives in its executives, including me. I have relatives in many branches, but they get rough when replacing them. I wonder who will be next."

Patrice highlights her breasts and shows them to me.

"With the help of Master Liam, why don't you make me president of the future Newlands Chamber of Commerce? Of course, we can offer you something in return."

Thomas was turning away from the two of them.

"Dear Liam, with the help of these two, the Banfield family will be able to make a big leap forward. But at the same time, there's trouble."

"I guess."

The big merchants need help in their internal feud, so they snuck up on me.

It's really easy to understand.

I mean, these guys value me highly as a violent device.

I tell you two in front of each other.

"- I'll help you because it sounds interesting."

Both Elliot and Patrice looked serious.

"It's good to think they understand what that means, isn't it?

Elliot pushes me just in case, but these guys are pretty evil too at the point where they rely on guys like me.

Thomas must be asking me what I've been up to.

"I don't mind. Do as you please. But that's all I'm telling you. - You guys make me money. And you guys make money, too. It's profitable for both, don't you think?

Loyalty? My in-laws?

I can't believe that stuff.

People don't betray you if you have a profit.

Isn't it simple?

Patrice puts her hand on her lips.

"- Master Liam is different than you imagined. In a good way, of course, though. I thought you put more emphasis on brother-in-law than profit."

Step-off? Step-off to a bad lord? Oh, like my in-laws coming out with Nintendo drama or something?

Me, whatever that used to be, you hate it now.

"Do you guys throw away your money by focusing on your in-laws? He's a merchant. You think so too, don't you, Thomas?

Shaking the story, Thomas looked in trouble.

"Well, what shall I say?"

"- If you guys make me money, I'll give you guys a hand. It's a simple contract, isn't it?

Elliot smiles, but he wasn't the first good young man smile he was showing.

"Of course it is. You can trust more than invisible brother-in-laws and humans."

Is Patrice a little excited or her cheeks are red?

"Shall we just sign a contract? Mr. Liam and I have a personal contract."

Nice.

I prefer these guys right now to the first good guy in the face.

◇

Elliot and Patrice, who made a deal with Liam, were the only two in the elevator.

The walls are glazed and it's really beautiful to see the night view of the capital star.

Elliot loosens the tie just a little bit and talks to Patrice.

"- You were the easier person to talk to than I thought."

Patrice puts his arms together and doesn't show Elliot his back.

"You're familiar. We're enemies to each other."

"Oh, I think working with each other would be beneficial."

- There's no point in joining hands with a powerless lord.

"You tell me"

This is why we approached Liam with each other, but in Elliot's case, the executives of the Chamber of Commerce were too close to the Berkley family.

If it pays well to be a pirate aristocrat, it's a guest, but that's not all the world has to offer.

If pirates become more wide-handed, even commerce will have problems.

Elliot hated it and decided to give Liam a hand in a fight from the front with the Berkley family.

I was also worried because I heard that it was too serious, but how could this be - a very interesting person.

"I thought you were under the same circumstances as me. A lot of executives are close to the Berkley family, aren't they?"

"It doesn't make sense to do the same. If you're betting on the Berkeleys, I'm just gonna stay close to the Banfield family."

Patrice just wants to use Liam to grow up in the Chamber of Commerce.

He was supposed to manipulate words masterfully, but as for Patrice, he missed his plans.

"But you seem to enjoy it more than I thought. I like how you're not just a good girl."

Many nobles prioritize their own making money, but Liam does not trust such a relationship.

"- I really need the Count to win."

When Elliot says so, Patrice nods too.

"Of course. Something you'll have trouble with if you don't win"

◇

When Liam trained, there was clearly a problem with replenishment.

It was - the defective soldiers who were affected.

"Damn it! Banfield looks great!

In addition to the aristocrats who had been dazzling in the patrol fleet, the soldiers who had sucked the sweet juice so far assigned to the regular fleet remembered their anger.

"Not at all. There's less booze to be paid."

"What do you mean you can't prepare one fancy drink for nobility!

"Besides the fleet. My fleet was reasoned and reduced in number!

It's all bad for Liam in Banfield.

Their opinions were clustered.

The conductor is watching.

He sat back in his chair and clapped as he rocked his legs.

"Looks like we're making enemies well. Above all. Now, let's get these guys to work, too."

When I ring my fingers, black smoke starts drifting from the guide's body.

The nobles smoked black full of smoke in the room, but they don't look as if they cared.

And one of them says:

"- There are rumors that the Berkley family will settle with the Banfield family"

Then the soldiers who were gathering were interested in the story.

"Is that true?

"Many military personnel are invited. What about here? - As an imperial nobleman, would you like to lend a hand to the Berkley family to get the army back to its rightful appearance? Now the Berkeleys will have plenty of rewards."

Niyaniya laughing military men.

The conductor, who prepares the humans to join the Berkley family in the army, added another Liam enemy.

"You still don't have enough planting. I can't get out of my hands to defeat that Liam."

I've been caught off guard.

No more insulting Liam.

When the conductor stood up, he put his hat back on and left the room.

It was just a pale light looking like a dog in the corner of the room quietly chasing after the conductor.
