The closer he got to the one moored in the depths of the harbor, the more Count Ammancia didn't know where to get it, the more Count Hertha felt that his curiosity was mixed with anger, and he was about to explode.

Pushing open the door to the VIP room on the top floor of the airship, Count Hertha calmed his breath and quietly looked at Count Amancia who had his back to him, not knowing what he was doing.

The air of the "......" fell into an eerie silence. Neither of them seemed to want to, nor did they dare to break the peace. It was obvious to Count Ammancia that Count Hertha's somewhat glaring gaze was watching him behind his back - and in the end, it was he who gave up this senseless "stalemate" and turned around.

"What's wrong?" He deliberately pretended to be strange.

"You actually ......" Count Hertha's breathing began to become rapid, "how dare you ......"

"From the beginning, you should have been smarter." Count Amencia smiled triumphantly, "Now...... Anyway, you're already winged, so let you know clearly, that's fine. ”

"What the hell is going on...... Did you already know that that box of cigars is not an oriental specialty at all, but an addictive poison! Count Hertha asked with some excitement.

"yes. From the beginning, I planned it all - it looks like you don't know what you just did. Count Amencia smiled, "Well, let's start from the beginning and make it clear—from the beginning, this is what I have set up to get you into this trap today." ”

“…… I don't see what good you can do by tricking me into touching those drugs and taking me to Remephilia. Count Hertha looked at the latter's smug expression and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, "And I don't think I've messed with you." ”

"No, no, no...... You're wrong. From you...... Your father, and even your grandfather, have been my enemies since the first day of their existence in Balyahat. Count Amencia retracted his smile and said with some ferocity, "Your existence has robbed the Ammanthian family of the reality that they have become the brightest star in the capital for so many years - so no matter what, I will take it back." I think my men should have started to pack up what you gave birth to now on the side of Balyahat. ”

“…… He didn't hesitate to do this......" Count Hertha gritted his teeth, but he was still puzzled by some things, "But what's the use of deliberately tricking me here?" ”

"It's simple. Just because of what happened a few hours ago - I have the capital that you can never hold me hostage. Count Amencia smiled confidently, "I have asked someone to secretly bring back the original and keep it...... But in order not to be kept in the dark, I also deliberately left a batch of copies. It's in the file bag on the desk over there...... Take it apart and see for yourself. ”

The Count of Hertha looked in the direction that the Count of Ammancia was pointing - there was indeed a small document bag with an open opening, and there were some faint photographs inside.

"......" For some reason, Count Hertha felt the sound of something breaking suddenly sounded in his heart.

Mechanically moving to the desk, and shuddering to open the contents of the bag—it doesn't matter, when he saw the first document in the bag—or the photograph, he almost fainted.

In the photo, he is lying naked on the bed, with a very happy expression on his face - and his body is actually ...... A very young looking girl is sitting in a delicate place on her body, as if she is pleasing herself.

Count Hertha knew what he was doing - he knew very well that the other party was old enough to be blacklisted in the absolute sense of the word by the major organizations.

And most importantly – that person is himself. It's nothing that can be said about it

Resisting this dizziness, the Count of Hertha continued to turn the next page—and the next—until his hands could no longer grasp the pages that were actually very light, along with the photographs scattered all over the floor, and sat on his knees.

"It seems...... Do you understand? Count Amancia's voice, which sounded like it came from another time and space, was full of unreal feelings, "These things are enough to make anyone ruined in an instant, and taking these means completely controlling you." ”

"You ...... You ......," said Count Hertha hatefully, only to find that he could not find a vicious enough word to describe Count Amancia's behavior. In the end, he could only hang his head in resignation.

"Of course...... If I didn't have to, I wouldn't do it. Count Amasia seems to have already talked about what Count Hertha will do, "As long as you do what I ask you to do later, I won't take the initiative to release all this photo information." ”

“…… Do I have any other options? Although he had not yelled, Count Hertha felt that his voice was hoarse at this moment, and it was not like his own voice.

It would have been fine if it had been something else - but only this time, Count Amancia, had a firm grip on his life. Nothing else is mentioned for the time being, if such a thing is published, even if you try to defend yourself, who will believe it? The family's reputation would be completely destroyed, and the trouble would spread to the Duke, or even His Majesty the Emperor, and what would happen after that - he didn't dare to imagine it.

"It's simple. I'll get back what I need—that being said, based on my intelligence, you're a great man when it comes to business. "Although those things are ours in the first place, it doesn't seem good to deprive you of everything like this." I hope you'll come to a deal with me in general terms that I'll still reward you with enough money to sustain your entire Earl's Court expenses without taking all of your stuff, as long as you keep your head low. ”

The strong sense of humiliation of "......" is like a basin of ice water poured over the head of the cold winter, which is more and more cold and biting - but the Count of Hertha has no way to resist, or even dodge. In the end, he just agreed in a small voice that he could barely hear.

"Oh...... That's right. And also...... Regarding our trip, I announced that I was here to talk about business. Count Ammancia continued, "On the Duke's side, I have already figured out a set of arrangements—as long as you do it honestly, there will be no problems. But if you make something that you don't expect, it's hard to say what will happen then......"
