[Chapter 178]
[Poisoned Cup (2)]
The meaning of the Pandora Clan Lord was clear.
The Clan Lords and the players they led were convinced when they saw Noh Eun-ha, who came late to the meeting.
I’m telling you not to mess around.
To put it simply, that was it.
It means that you should not even think about standing shoulder to shoulder with yourself by clearly imprinting the upper and lower sides.
In the meantime, several clans tried to talk to Eunha Noh secretly, but Eunha Noh seemed not to want that.
Yes, even though he is young, he is still the person who serves as the regional representative.
I want you to treat me in a formal way. No, is it that he won’t let go unless he’s formal?
The Clan Lords quietly checked the momentum of the Pandora Clan members in the arena.
“…….”
They emitted mana from their bodies and did not pose a direct threat.
However, the fame of those who guard the conference hall could not be overlooked.
< Seolchang > Ryu Yeon-hwa.
< Shadow > Han Chang-jin.
< Geumgangsword > Mok Min-ho.
< All Poisoning > Yoo Nam-hoon.
< Scorching Witch > Bae Su-bin.
The five people were the ones who made merit in this disaster.
Just by standing still, they had no choice but to give up any thought of exerting pressure with a slight display of momentum.
Meanwhile-.
─Next, let’s move on to the topic of Clan Jurisdiction Taxes.
The meeting proceeded step by step.
The unimportant meetings passed, and finally the subject of the meeting the Clanlords had been waiting for came.
They looked at each other at the words of the administrative officer Seohyun Han.
We need to lower the tax rate.
The blow from this catastrophe is so great that they should advise Pandora Clanlord to lower the tax rate.
Downward adjustment of Clan Jurisdiction Tax.
It was one of the purposes for the Clanlords to attend the meeting even with their heads bowed.
They were in agreement on lowering the tariff rate.
Many people have suffered property loss as a result of this catastrophe. As a result, Clan Pandora decided to lower the jurisdictional tax collected from local residents from 10% to 5% for the next three years.
I agree. Because the city is the city, it is not possible to force the existing tax rate on the local residents.
Well thought out. Locals will welcome you. thank you Even if you don’t, I tried to speak on behalf of the Itaewon residents.
Hansung Clanlord DM Clanlord.
And < The Mercenary King > David Kim.
The three of them and the Clan Lords agreed.
On the one hand, DM Hansung Clanlord had other ideas.
Pandora Clan lowered the tax rate to ease the burden on residents.
Doesn’t that mean that the clans will of course also lower the tax rate?
they were expecting
It would take a long time for the clans affected by this catastrophe to regain their strength.
It was a situation where I had to tighten my belt tight until then, reducing unnecessary spending.
So, they were hoping that Pandora Clan would lower the clan’s jurisdictional tax.
But contrary to their wishes—.
─Thus, Pandora Clan is hoping for a lot of help from those who have worked hard for regional development in order to alleviate the burden on the residents. “……?”
5% of the jurisdictional tax you pay to Pandora Clan will be used for regional development. So, going forward, you will have to pay a 10% jurisdictional tax, which is an increase of 5% from the previous clan’s jurisdictional tax.
Seohyun Han smiled and said.
The Clanlords were at a loss for words.
10%.
In general, the jurisdictional tax that the representative clan of the region demanded from the clan located in the region was 10% of the tax paid to the mana management organization.
So what Pandora Clan demanded was neither too much nor too little.
However, in Yongsan-gu and Jung-gu, where the clan leaders changed frequently, they took 10% from the residents and 5% from the clans, fearing retaliation in the future.
However, Clan Pandora said to give 10% of that twice as much, even when the clans are in financial hardship.
That’s a bit… I think it’s a bit much.
Pandora Clan Lord. We want you to consider our circumstances.
I can’t open my eyes and cut my nose.
DM Hansung Clanlord, who came to his senses, passively denied it.
As they cringed, they demanded leniency from Noh Eun-ha.
The other Clanlords nodded their heads along with them.
The answer came elsewhere.
─It is inevitable for regional development. Pandora Clan hopes that Yongsan-gu and Jung-gu will return to their original form within three years. I think we can do that if we all work together as we go into fiscal austerity for three years.
“…….”
Seohyun Han answered right away.
She appealed for local development.
It was a very good cause.
It could have been self-inflicted, but financial austerity was not a problem for Pandora Clan, which is sponsored by five groups.
As a result, the clans struggling with finances would be themselves, not the Pandora clan.
Moreover, Pandora Clan was in a position to receive jurisdictional taxes.
The word ‘together’ was absurd.
Pandora Clan was simply directing the development of the region by presenting the results of transparent management of their funds.
And then-.
──We pay the money, and Pandora Clan, which uses the money to develop the region, will gain support from the residents.
We don’t get anything.
The Clanlords kept their mouths shut.
There was nothing good about it.
They somehow tried to find a suitable justification for the justification.
So they roll their heads…
─The tax rate is very low. If that’s the extent of the jurisdictional tax, you can pay it.
“……!!”
< The Mercenary King > suddenly opened his mouth.
Crossing his arms and leaning into the chair, he laughed.
Then he opened his eyes narrowly and watched the Clan Lords in Yongsan-gu.
Until then, Itaewon had to pay unequal 20% jurisdictional tax. Of course, although we were not recognized as a legitimate force.
As a result, the faces of the Clan Lords in Yongsan-gu rotted away.
In the meantime, they have demanded a high level of jurisdictional tax in return for recognizing Itaewon as an independent force.
< Mercenary King > had no choice but to pay the jurisdictional tax each time.
I’m glad then. I was worried that you, too, had been affected by this catastrophe and had set the price too high.
I know 10% is a typical number. In the meantime, the jurisdictional tax collected in Yongsan-gu belonged to the high axis. Compared to that, it seems very cheap.
thank you
< The Mercenary King > leads public opinion.
The justification for the Clanlords to refuse has lost even more power.
At the same time, local conflicts arose.
Anyway…. Yongsan-gu is the problem. Even if you take a profit, you will take it in moderation. Is it 20% in Itaewon?
The Jung-gu clans gave the Yongsan-gu clans an uncomfortable look.
The Yongsan-gu clans were displeased, but they couldn’t say anything against them.
And then-.
-10%.
“…….”
You all suffer a little. Wasn’t the clan there to protect and develop the region?
Until now, Noh Eun-ha of < Crimson Zone > had been entrusting all meetings to Han Seo-hyeon.
He opened his mouth right away.
Noh Eun-ha’s words became a wedge.
The Clan Lords who were looking for justification had no choice but to give up.
☆
At this point, the 10% jurisdictional tax would be a burden on the clans.
Even so, Eunha and Han Seohyun risked 10%.
We are still small. So while they’re struggling with their finances, they need to bulk up.
The purpose of 10% in the first place was nothing more than to put a burden on the clan.
That’s why he said he would use 5% of 10% for regional development.
In fact, Pandora Clan’s profits were only 5%, just like other regional representative clans.
By the way, it’s good that you invited the < Mercenary King > teacher to this place.
Meanwhile, Eun-ha looked at < The Dragon King > who was sitting nearby.
He was in the meeting and was empowering himself.
Thanks to this, the Clan Lords lost their justification and had to be dragged around by the < Mercenary King >.
Dominic, turn your head.
The gaze is burdensome.
On the other hand, because of Eunha’s eyes on < The Dragon King >.
Eun-ha also met eyes with Dominique, who was standing behind < The Mercenary King >.
He was looking at himself with his eyes shining.
Eunha turned her head away, feeling burdened by his gaze.
─This concludes the Jurisdictional Conference.
“…….”
In the meantime, the Regional Assembly was over.
The faces of the Clan Lords were not bright.
Because they didn’t get what they wanted.
they all know
After three years, the region will be stable, and then Pandora Clan will completely rule Yongsan-gu and Jung-gu.
Then, 10% of the jurisdictional tax will be maintained, and 5% used by the residents will also be taken by Holla.
With this, the clans in Yongsan-gu and Jung-gu will not go against our clan.
For at least 3 years, if we tell them to bark, they will have to bark, and for the other 7 years, they will spend the time of patience while conserving their strength in earnest.
They were potential competitors.
The galaxy was quite satisfied with the situation that would take away their power and prevent them from going against them properly for the next 10 years.
Even so, it was impossible to treat them so harshly.
They were both competitors and allies.
Clan members have prepared a table for a drinking party downstairs, so let’s go downstairs. Seniors, I will treat you.
I had to relieve them.
Eunha stood up from her seat and spoke to them warmly.
The Clan Lords looked at him with a look of discomfort.
But even they knew it wouldn’t do any good if things got tougher here.
Let’s do it. Pandora Clan Road Do you drink?
Starting with Hanseong Clan Road.
Several Clanlords responded to Galactic’s proposal.
As they responded favorably, even the disgruntled Clanlords had no choice but to reluctantly respond.
Sit comfortably. Enjoy your meal. Seniors, I’m really sorry for being late.
Hmmm man might be late. But let’s not do that from now on. Grab a cup of Pandora Clan Road.
thank you.
The cafeteria on the 3rd floor of the Pandora Clan Hall.
Drinks and food were set on tables that were attached in a row.
they enjoyed the dinner.
< The Mercenary King > and Hanseong Clan Lord, who were sitting near Eunha, offered drinks.
Eunha did not hesitate.
Certainly, those who send out invitations and respond first respond quite favorably.
The banquet hall was cordial.
In particular, people sitting around Eunha laughed and chatted with each other as if they had fought.
It was all arranged by Seohyun Han.
She arranged them to sit near the galaxy in the order of those who responded to the Pandora Clan’s invitation.
In other words, the seating arrangement that continued at the conference hall continued at the dinner table.
Meanwhile-.
─I feel so good, so I can’t help but tell you the good news. “……!!”
While the Pandora Clan members and sub-lords wander around the dinner table to match people’s moods.
Eunha, who recognized the signal Han Seohyun was sending, opened her mouth.
Their gaze turned to the galaxy.
What is Pandora Clanlord?
is it so. Let me know.
Hanseong Clanlord’s eyes twinkled.
Other than that, the people next to Eunha stuck their heads out on the table.
I heard that these guidelines will come down soon, but some of the newly appeared dungeons will give the right to organize raids to the clan that has jurisdiction over the district. “……!!” However, as you know, Pandora Clan is currently short on personnel… So, as soon as the official notice comes down, we ask some clans for help….
“Let us do it!!”
Clanlords reacted immediately.
Eunha smiled in repentance.
Then he spoke.
Not only that, but it is said that Donghae Construction has won a large-scale construction order in Yongsan-gu and Jung-gu this time. So, they said that we need help from our clan in case something happens during the construction period
.
It hooked up very well.
Eunha smiled as she saw the Clanlords dripping with desire.
They forgot what was happening at the meeting and were bowing down to Eunha.
You should definitely imprint them.
There’s nothing good about going against me, and if you follow my words well, I’ll take care of you in moderation, even in this way.
It mainly raises clans that are friendly to the Pandora clan.
so that they become allies.
Galactic dropped a few gains and was pleased to see the Clanlords he liked so much.
Then——
Bang!
I heard someone set a glass down hard on the table.
People’s eyes turned to
“…….”
The very end of the table.
He was once the head of Yongsan-gu.
DM Clan Lord, who was the last to respond to Eunha’s invitation and was pushed out of the stone, was shaking his shoulders.
Pandora Clan Lord. Looking at this now, it seems that the outstanding thing was not only the ability to threaten me with a sword. The DM Clanlord who knows how to coax….
and smiles willingly.
He poured a drink into a glass.
He swallowed the high-alcohol drink in one breath, and then knocked down the glass again and set it down.
Yes, I am also a mere individual. I’m really looking forward to what Pandora Clanlord has now released.
“…….”
But since I’m sitting here, I don’t think it’s going to be a rice cake for the DM Clan…
The DM Clan Lord got up from his seat and walked to Eunha.
He first spread the liquor in the glass of the galaxy on the floor.
Then he poured the Kaoliang wine he had just poured.
He handed out a glass of wine.
Eat once. I did this because I wanted to pour a drink for Pandora Clanlord, who became the representative of Yongsan-gu. Don’t think it’s too rude.
“…….”
The DM clanlord babbles.
Eun-ha stared at him for a long time before taking a gulp of Kaoliang wine.
Then he applauded, saying that he was good at drinking high alcohol.
But no one laughed.
then-
──Would you like to play a game with me when you drink so much without even expressing mana in your body? a game? it’s your game Yongsan-gu clans once discussed a lot of decision-making with this. Hey Subload! Hurry up and get it!
all right!
The DM Clanlord pointed to the DM Sublord and shouted.
The man jumped up from his seat and soon disappeared somewhere.
You can’t believe it….
Yes, that can’t be. Have you ever been with me before? Isn’t it a game that Seongjun Gil, who was a member of the Changhae Clan Road, enjoyed quite a bit? Were you still doing that?
There’s no law telling you not to.
Hanseong Clanlord frowned.
DM Clanlord shrugged and giggled.
Before long, the DM subload brought a large box.
DM Clanlord slammed the box in front of Eunha and set it down.
Let’s say that’s the case with Clan Jurisdictions. Instead, let’s all play this game and let the winners get the jobs that Pandora Clanlord accepts. how is it?
“……!!”
DM Clanlord smirks.
The Clanlords widened their eyes.
The people who liked this story were the ones who, like DM Clanlord, had to suck their fingers in the last seat.
They raised their voices in approval.
And Noh Eun-ha
——First of all, let’s decide after hearing what kind of game it is.
great. Let me explain.
Noh Eun-ha asked for food.
DM Clanlord was convinced that Noh Eun-ha would have no choice but to participate in the game.
☆
It shouldn’t be like this.
I thought that if I did something wrong, the DM Clan Lord could lose all the influence he had.
Where is that?
Through Pandora Clan’s placement in the last place, he thought that if he made a mistake, he might be pushed out by other clans as well.
It shouldn’t be.
It can’t be helped that the DM Clan bows down to the Pandora Clan, but they can’t compete on the same level as the big talkers.
The DM Clanlord was impatient.
He regretted leaving the invitations from Pandora Clan in the trash.
It’s called courtesy.
At least, it was a mistake to think that Pandora Clan would treat him, who was once the representative of Yongsan-gu.
I had to make up for my mistake somehow.
─There is a game that suits you well.
So, I chose the adventure.
If this continues, all the Yongsan-gu clans will stick to Noh Eun-ha.
Before that, he had to exercise his influence to some extent.
Fortunately, most of them were still following him.
And she had to let Noh Eun-ha know that she wasn’t such an easygoing person.
This was the reason why DM Clanlord proposed a game to Eunha, who upset the atmosphere of the dinner party with a rebellious attitude.
No, it could have been a bet.
─In this box, the poison that the DM Clan has collected over the years is contained. It also contains some fairly rare poisons.
DM Clanlord opened the box.
There were a lot of small bottles inside.
Every liquid in the bottle was poison.
What a great person.
I can’t believe I didn’t budge even when I saw the poison.
DM Clanlord shook the poisoned bottle in front of Noh Eun-ha’s eyes.
He showed no reaction.
Rather, the Clan Lords who were interested in the game contents were shocked to hear that it was poison.
He is a very courageous person.
DM Clanlord put the poison he was holding in place and moved his hand to the bottle labeled Ninth Hierarchy.
This venom was obtained from the venom of a Tier 9 dust snail. You know what the dust snail’s venom does. Even a single drop of its venom causes breathing difficulties. what doesn’t die If you cough a lot and get it wrong, you’ll just lose your voice or get pneumonia.
“…….”
Thoroughly explained about the poison.
The DM Clanlord ordered you to prepare as many cups as the number of Clanlords participating in the game.
There was not a single Clan Lord who did not participate in the game.
If you don’t participate, you know that you won’t be able to eat the beans that Pandora Clan drops.
DM Clanlord giggled and dropped a drop or two of poison into the glass.
Then I poured myself a drink.
He held out his glass to Eunha.
It is a game that has been traditionally handed down since the Changhae Clan was the representative. The agenda that couldn’t be concluded was decided with this.
How do you see it? It’s simple. It’s just drinking a poisoned drink without spending mana. After going around one circle like that, you put the poison of a monster that has risen one more level and drink again. It’s a game of drinking poison until there’s a winner. How easy is it?
“…….”
Clanlords in Yongsan-gu hated it.
Some of the Clan Lords in Jung-gu also wondered if they had ever experienced the game.
Nevertheless, the DM Clanlord offered him a poisoned glass.
If you’re a loser with two territories, you shouldn’t avoid games like this. Who the hell would follow a loser without dignity? Wouldn’t it?
DM Clanlord provoked.
In fact, from the time the game was explained, there was no corner where Eunha Noh could escape.
If you avoid it, you will be rumored to be a coward, and if you compete, you will become poisoned and show your rudeness in front of the Clan Lords.
stupid thing.
Do you think you, who have never been through childbirth, can withstand these poisons?
DM Clanlord giggled.
It was clear that the winner would be himself.
He was adapting to the extent that he once created a masterpiece with Changhae Clanlord Gil Seong-jun and Poisoned Goblet.
Didn’t you take the antidote beforehand?
That’s why he was sure of victory—.
─Okay. Let’s see how many poisons you can survive safely.
“…….”
When Noh Eun-ha was caught provocation.
He smiled condescendingly.
He felt sorry for Noh Eun-ha, who would soon become poisoned and show ugliness.
