"In the end, the final winner is our Anatas family."
"Yes, Father. I’ll make sure that Clovis Hacfield and the Hacfield family will be a laughingstock. They are nothing but my stepping stones."
When people heard the audio, the entire stadium turned silent for a few seconds. They simply couldn’t believe what they had just heard.
"This..."
"The voice... Aren’t those Iskandar’s and Lukman’s voices?"
"That’s right. I have heard Lukman Anatas’ voice. As the father of Iskandar Anatas, he had beco a public figure who kept promoting Iskandar everywhere."
"Did he just say it was a plan?"
"So, there was a contract? The contract prevented Clovis Hacfield from fighting with his beasts, and it even prevented him from talking about it."
"Are the people from the Anatas family that shaless?"
"But looking at their conversation, it was clear that this was their plan. They humiliated him even though he had co to fight them on their terms."
"What the fuck?!"
The majority of the people suddenly felt ashad. They had been booing Clovis before, but it turned out they had wronged him the whole ti.
"What the actual fuck?!"
"How the hell is there soone this shaless?!"
"I’m so embarrassed to even live together with them!"
"What future Tier 9? I guess he’s already Tier 9 in terms of shalessness!"
"Get the hell out of here!"
The people were raging. They never thought that the truth was so embarrassing. It felt like they just wanted to nuke the entire stadium and bury themselves with it.
On the corner of the stadium, Maya couldn’t help but smile.
...
A few days ago.
"Madam only wants you to pass her test. Because the sparring match was caused by the mission itself, the madam had asked to handle the aftermath. As your grandmother once said, You could defeat but not humiliate ."
Clovis’ expression turned solemn. He didn’t know that Maya had been following him.
When he took the recorder, he imdiately played it, hearing the conversation between the father and the son.
"If you wish, you can back down from the fight, Young Master. We will be using our connections to bury your matter."
Clovis’ expression softened. "Do you want to go back, Maya?"
Maya paused for a mont before shaking her head. "To be honest, the reason people are following your grandfather is that he has never turned his back around. Even if there is one person left behind, he will charge forward at the enemy to buy enough ti for everyone to escape.
"The more you push him into a corner, the more he becos a devil. I believe that the young master also has that quality. If not, all these talented people won’t be willing to follow you.
"I wish that the young master wouldn’t back down from any fight. However, that is just speaking. As the maid of your great-grandmother, I wish for you to be well all the ti."
Clovis smiled. "I see. I have been aning to ask you. Have you ever hated my grandfather? Maybe after failing to save my grandmother?"
"The last ti I hated him was before your grandfather and grandmother got together." Maya shook her head. "In fact, there is no one who hates your grandfather more than your grandfather himself. He has been hating himself for failing to save your grandmother."
Clovis nodded. "I don’t know if I have my grandfather’s qualities, but I can say that I never participate in a fight that I can’t win. That’s why I’m going to sign the docunt."
Maya closed her eyes. "It would be better if you handed that to the governnt. You can use them to pressure the Anatas family."
Clovis shook his head calmly. "I have a better idea."
...
Maya didn’t know his idea until she witnessed it personally. Instead of negotiating with the governnt, Clovis actually publicized it in front of the person himself, slapping his face in front of countless people.
She rembered how Madam Silvia slapped the mayor’s family. Just looking at how he handled this matter made her see the figure of Silvia in Clovis’ back.
"The young master is really the young master." Maya smiled. "In that case, I will take care of the remaining problems for you, Young Master."
...
Libation Fiesta Room.
"Hahahaha. Serve him right!" Kanaria laughed.
"I recorded it. This will definitely make laugh for a few weeks before I get bored with it." lody nodded, satisfied.
"Well, there’s no way that guy accepts sothing without any preparation." Jay just closed his eyes, knowing that the battle was already over.
Suddenly, the door was slamd open from the outside, making them think there was an attack because of this recording.
However, they never thought that the person who entered was actually the maid that stood by Clovis’ great-grandmother’s side.
"You are that maid..." Christina frowned. "I finally know how Clovis is able to secure that kind of evidence."
Maya gracefully entered the room and carried Vina like baggage. "Sorry. No ti to talk. I’m going to borrow this girl for a bit."
"What are you going to do?" Kanaria asked. "Now that I think about it, you are not going to make the Golden World Agency stop its service in this country, right?"
Kanaria blinked a few tis. If a country like this lost that kind of service, it would cause massive damage to the explorers. It might even reach hundreds of billions, if not trillions.
A single word from Silvia would be enough to do it.
Maya shook her head. "Doing that will expose Clovis’ relationship with the Golden World Agency as well as the madam. It’s not the ti yet.
"As for this situation, it’s not at the level where we have to resort to that kind of threat. All the Tier 9 families have their own depth, but we will slightly show the world what it ans to take advantage of the Hacfield family. Strength is not the only thing that matters in war, you know?"
Maya stopped explaining and took Vina away.
Whether it was the sparring match or the battle in the shadows, the country couldn’t forget what happened on this day.
