After conversing with his son, Yug turned to leave and returned to his own quarters.
He instructed his servants to guard the door and turn away any guests. Then he activated a magic crystal used for sending messages.
“The aristocrats and merchants may engage in battle very soon.”
“What role will the Yug family play in this?” a young female voice asked.
“Even if I want to retreat, I don’t think it’s possible.”
“Yes, that’s true. So, what do you plan to do?” The voice grew intense.
Marquis Yug sighed and said, “I’ll go with the flow. I just have two principles that I’m keeping in mind. Firstly, I will not oppose His Majesty. Secondly, I will try to reduce the damage done to the Yugs.”
“Things will not be that simple.”
“I know, but there is a limit to what I can do.” Marquis Yug was silent for a while before saying, “Can I ask a favor of you?”
“Speak.”
“My eldest son Antonio is deeply obsessed with the Noble Lady. If I die, he will use his position in the family to bring the entire family to her side. That is too dangerous, and I cannot accept it, but I cannot take any action myself… Can I trouble you to bring him to your side so that he cannot be found?”
On the other side of the crystal, there was a long period of silence before a reply came.
“Alright, don’t worry about it.”
Marquis Yug then relaxed, or at least he did on the surface. After this exchange, he appeared much more stable and relaxed and summoned all the servants in the household to assign roles.

Under his command, the Yug family was like a giant waking up from slumber, slowly stretching and rising up.
Following closely behind, the Gordon family also made similar preparations. The two of them came together to rule fourteen earls, or half of the Commonwealth.
One could say that the entire Commonwealth was really going to take action now.
…
The Republic of Northwest, Pyrotech City.
The leader of Pyrotech City, Great Governor Asner, slowly extinguished the glowing magic crystal and thought hard. In this surname plan, a few people had chosen to not adopt a surname, and Asner was one of them.
Of course, as a Legendary Master, her name was more important than any random surname. As long as one mentioned the name Asner, one did not need a surname to understand the reference. After a thousand years, those who had attained slight glory would probably be forgotten, but her name would still be alive and triumphant. This was why she was a Legendary Master; she could outlive “family” and “country” in reputation!
However, to Asner, the reason behind not choosing a surname did not stem from her own current status but was because of something else.
After thinking for a while, she rubbed the unassuming ring that she wore on her left hand. A magical glow was emitted, a light blue flash of light. If this ring was paired with a similar ring, it could be used as a satellite point for communication or send messages during emergencies and was extremely useful. People discovered their value after the rings became popularized as wedding rings. According to calculations, its biggest use was in being a surveillance tool to prevent spouses from cheating on each other. Of course, Asner did not care for this feature. However, it was still useful nevertheless, and she could use it anytime to communicate with her husband given her level of magic ability. Her minor occupation was a magician, and so using magic was not foreign to her at all.
The flashing blue light stabilized quickly, signaling that Clito had also activated his ring on the other side for communication.
“Are you free? If you are, apply to leave tomorrow and accompany me on a trip to Gold Crown City.”
“Gold Crown City? What do you intend to do there? I don’t have good memories of that place.” Her husband, Clito Castor’s voice was emitted through the ring.
“Really?”
“Other than meeting you there, I was extremely unlucky in that place. I had to be warded about four or five times and nearly lost my life twice. The worst was when a guy tried to hit on me… Never mind the other instances, this one incident was enough to give me post-traumatic stress disorder!” Clito sighed.
Asner couldn’t help but laugh. “I thought you mentioned previously that no matter how unlucky you were, meeting me was lucky enough to even it all out?”
“Of course! But why would I return there? What’s the issue with our current peaceful state?”
“My older brother just contacted me and wants me to bring his son Antonio away to a place where the God of Aristocracy cannot find him.”
Clito thought for a while and replied with a firm tone, “When we eloped in the past, if not for brother-in-law’s help, we would have been caught by your heartless, power-hungry father. We cannot refuse his request for a favor now. It’s just that… If we were to follow what he wanted, unless we lock him within a temple, what can we do?”
“I just prayed about it and asked His Majesty for his opinion. He indicated that we can lock him in the God Kingdom.”
“This fellow is really lucky…” Clito couldn’t help but scoff, then smiled. “Alright then, I’ll apply for leave later and accompany you tomorrow.”
“There’s no need. Tomorrow, I will directly send the both of you over.” Sui Xiong, who had been floating at his side, suddenly spoke.
“Ah? His Majesty, you’re not asleep?”
“Have you ever seen a jellyfish sleep?”
Sui Xiong and Clito’s conversation was, of course, heard by Asner as well. She couldn’t help but smile as she thanked Sui Xiong.
The next day, Clito and Asner used legendary magic to transport them to Gold Crown City, which was the capital of the Commonwealth of Gold Coins. Although the Commonwealth was now broken up, on paper, this was still its capital. The past two great marquis and three great unions’ headquarters were all here. Even if the latter had all moved away, the former still remained, and its status as the capital did not shift much.
The couple did not waste time and immediately reached the manor of the Marquis of Gemstones and entered through the back door.
There were three guards at the door, and two were in warrior attire while one was in high-level paladin attire. Although they were all middle-aged, they were full of energy, and one could tell upon a glance that they were extremely skilled. While they were usually quiet, they had an aura of arrogance. However, in front of the couple, they were polite. This was not just out of respect for their power but also their identity. Clito was their master, and Asner… was their employer’s sister. If not for this relationship, Clito, who hated trouble, would not have bothered to spend four or five years to train them. Among all their teachers, Clito was the master they respected the most.
The couple entered the marquis manor and met Yug, who had been awaiting their arrival. After a few hushed words were exchanged, Yug brought them to his secret chambers.
He had pumped in large amounts of sleeping gas since the day before, and despite Antonio’s best efforts to resist it, he had eventually succumbed and fallen asleep. He lay motionless across the table.
Although Antonio was much taller than he was, Clito lifted Antonio up with ease. After bidding his brother-in-law farewell, he boarded the magic carpet that he had prepared and disappeared with Antonio’s body to return to his camp.
He then proceeded to pass Antonio to Sui Xiong.
Ten minutes later, Antonio awoke to a foggy environment and the company of a young, confused man who was naked except for a pair of pants made out of leaves.
This was the “previous” Samat Viscount.
