From Village Chief to Emperor of the Strongest Empire

Su Chen ordered the members of the Glimmer Knights and the guards to wait outside the castle gate.
There were too many of them, and it was impossible to let them all in. In any case, Su Chen could summon them to his side in an instant, so it did not matter whether they entered or not.
Of course, Owen did not know that Su Chen had such a trick up his sleeve. Seeing that Su Chen did not force the Knights to enter with him, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief in his heart. He secretly rejoiced that the plan in his heart should be able to be implemented.
Originally, he had planned to destroy the guards and force the mayor to cede power. However, he did not expect that they would come looking for him today with their men. Moreover, they were in a very big formation. Even if he used his trump card, he was not confident that he could destroy such powerful knights.
Therefore, he could only aim for the head.
Each member had ulterior motives hidden in their hearts. They walked all the way from the main gate, passing through the flat stone path and the small garden. Along the way, they saw servants taking care of the exquisite shrubs and flower beds, and birdcages hanging on the trees, the birds were chirping and making noise. It was a peaceful scene as if the monsters wreaking havoc outside had nothing to do with the peaceful life inside the walls.
The group followed Owen to the reception hall.
Su Chen looked at the magnificent castle hall and could not help but exclaim, “This is the F*cking treatment that a lord should have!”.
Recalling the poor city hall and the stone house he lived in, it seemed that this time, it was necessary to kill the local rich owner of his territory to ease the economic pressure of the town, otherwise, he might cause trouble at a critical time one day, which would cause a huge loss.
With a smile on his face, Owen led Su Chen and Ian to their seats. He turned to look at the butler and said unhappily, “Do you still need me to teach you how to treat guests?!”
The butler nodded in response.
“Change the place and prepare the meal.” The servants quickly got busy. They removed the conference table and carried it up. They quickly put on the flower candlesticks and shiny silver cutlery.
It was lunchtime. Owen had just eaten in the dining room, so he thought that the aggressive group must not have eaten lunch. He first arranged for the butler to prepare lunch and chat while eating, it could also buy a little time and adapt to the situation.
The butler also took the opportunity to slip away and go to Owen’s room to get his treasure box.
Ian sat next to Su Chen and felt uneasy. He quietly said to Su Chen, “He’s stalling for time. I guess there are some dirty tricks waiting for us.”
Su Chen turned back to look at him and nodded slightly to show that he understood.
The Glimmer Knights could only be summoned for an hour a day, so he quietly canceled the summoning in his heart. He would summon them when there was a fight, just in case he did not have enough time left.
He kept chatting with Owen.
“As expected of chief Owen. We rushed here early in the morning and are indeed hungry. I’ve heard that your castle’s chefs are good and I’ve long wanted to try their cooking”
Owen was slightly stunned, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He felt that he had never seen such a shameless person. He was a mayor, but how could he talk about freeloading in such a dignified manner? He could not express it on his face, so he could only answer with an awkward smile,
“It’s fine. It’s my honor to be able to treat the mayor to a meal. As long as the mayor doesn’t mind that my place is simple and crude.” At the same time, he waved his hand, and the servant placed the fruits on the table, then, he added red wine into the goblets in front of the few of them.
“Mayor, you must be joking. This is all the hard-earned money that we worked hard and reasonably to earn. We villagers are short-sighted, so we invested all the money to build this castle.”
Su Chen secretly ridiculed him in his heart. ‘Damn it, collecting protection fees was reasonable and legal?’
Owen then continued, “By the way, the purpose of the mayor’s visit today is to consolidate the guards’ strength and guard against the attack of monsters, right?
“Our family has always been conscientious in the town. We have worked hard for the development of the town and also contributed a little bit of our strength for the protection of the town. You know, our castle also needs protection. Please forgive us, mayor.”
Ian was angered by the shameless words of the head of the Karev family. How could this shameless old thief dare to say such a shameless thing? He could not help but stand up and argue with him.
When he saw Ian was a little excited and was about to stand up, he immediately held him down, wanting to see what tricks he had up his sleeve. He smiled and said to Owen,
“Chief Owen, although you say so, the impact of the monsters during this period of time has caused a lot of casualties to the town. Since you also live in the town, you naturally have to contribute.”
“Well said, well said. I wonder how much money and soldiers the mayor needs me to pay?” Owen asked with a smile, but his eyes gradually revealed a trace of impatience.
Su Chen took a sip of red wine and said with a smile,
“Of course, I can understand the difficulties of the chief, so we don’t need too much. Just merge your bronze knights into our guard team. In addition to a few hundred gold coins as the daily expenses of the town, these are just a drop in the bucket for you, right, Master Owen?”
After hearing this, the veins on Owen’s forehead throbbed with anger. At this time, he wanted to empty his house! He had spent all these years plundering five to six hundred gold coins, and this town leader wanted all of his belongings. However, after thinking about the pressure that the knights outside gave him, he held back.
‘I can’t give myself away and let him directly use the knights to attack. Although I’m a beginner water mage, I can’t withstand the assault of so many knights. I have to stall them a little longer,’ he thought to himself.
At this moment, the servant brought the exquisite dishes to the dining table. The fragrant roasted chicken and large meat steaks were served. Owen immediately called out to Su Chen and Ian,
“The two lords’ dishes are here. Let’s eat first and discuss slowly.” In his heart, he was anxious as to why the butler had not brought his box back.
Su Chen did not care about his thoughts. He had only eaten half a loaf of bread and a bowl of thick soup in the morning. His stomach was already growling with hunger. He reached out to the dining table and tore a drumstick.
He turned to look at Ian, who was still in a daze and said, “Hurry up and eat. What are you looking at? Aren’t you hungry?”
Ian did not know how the mayor could eat so well under such circumstances, but the mayor looked indifferent. He did not care. He tore off the other half of his thigh and began to eat.
Seeing the two people gobbling down the food, Ian cursed the country bumpkin in his heart.
At this time, the butler brought his treasure box over. Owen’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly brought it over to Su Chen. He beamed and said to Su Chen,
“Mayor, I have a treasure that I want to show you..”

“Chief Owen is really modest. If such a luxurious hall is said to be simple and crude, then doesn’t that mean that my city hall isn’t even a dog kennel?” Su Chen picked up the red wine goblet, shook it, and sniffed at his nose.“Mayor, you must be joking. This is all the hard-earned money that we worked hard and reasonably to earn. We villagers are short-sighted, so we invested all the money to build this castle.”
