Chapter 297 - "How Pathetic!"
Hearing Blair's suggestion, the brothers didn't refuse and instantly agreed. "I also think that way, Blair." Lael looked at his phone and started to type.
The boy sent a message to his father, telling him about what happened at the capital and why they should attack the Sloan Family.
In just 5 minutes, Lael's father replied to the message.
Michael: Really? Does such a baby truly exist? If she's a threat to our family, dad shall send our affiliated families to attack them.
Lael: Hum, dad. Send at least 1 high-ranked family and a few mid-ranked! The Sloan Family got three sacred beasts, and that b*tch tamed one of them. We've got to be careful.
Michael: I see, I see. Do as you fit. It's not a big deal to crush such a weak family. But don't kill that baby. Maybe we can enslave her for our family's benefit.
Michael didn't think much about attacking a fallen family with no backing. For him, this was just his way to please his children, especially his beloved lucky star, Blair.
Since Blair also wanted to attack the Sloan Family, Michael agreed in a heartbeat.
Michael: I'll arrange for the forces to attack the Sloan Family's main territory in a few days. How is it?
Lael: Good, dad! We will stay in the capital for two more days to attend the Billios Casino's auction. I hope the Sloan Family will be gone by then.
Michael: Yeah, up to you, son. I'm busy with other matters. I'll let your first brother arrange the invasion. But I bet he won't join the invasion troop too.
Lael: It's okay, dad. Just send big brother's contracted sacred beast, the Pegasus, to fend off the Sloan Family's tamed holy beast.
Michael: Hmm, good idea. Vallan, that pegasus is getting bored, anyway. Going to war might ease his boredom.
Lael: yup. Thanks, dad. Blair said she loves you the most.
Michael: haha. Tell her to call me asap. Adios.
Lael closed the chat and looked at his two siblings, who were looking at him with expectant eyes.
"How is it? Did dad agree?" Asael was like sitting on fire. He couldn't help but jump and grabbed Lael's arm, shaking it hard.
"Yeah, yeah. Did daddy agree? He did, right? Daddy is the best, after all." Blair also approached Lael and coyly tugged the boy's sleeve.
The way she called her adoptive dad was quite intimate for someone who didn't even inherit the Aretha Family's bloodline.
Lael looked at both children and nodded. "No worries. Dad agreed. We should just sit back and enjoy the show." The young boy curled his lips, showing a dark, eerie smile.
But his siblings didn't seem to feel like puking at such a suspicious-looking smile. Both of them looked at each other and jumped on their feet.
"Yeah! That's good!"
"Hum, hum. Will daddy send Vallan too? That toddler has a sacred beast, too, after all." Blair immediately asked Lael, afraid that their family underestimated the Sloan Family.
If that happened, they couldn't completely destroy the Sloan Family!
"Hahaha. Dad said he will let Vallan attack the Sloan Family together with forces from one high-ranked family, and at least 5 mid-level families."
The 13-year-old boy fixed his round eyeglasses and snorted.
"There will be around 500 ability users at least, and many of them are multiple ability users. The fallen Sloan Family will only have 200 to 300 forces ready for war."
After all, the other forces should be divided into several other small territories around the main territory.
The high-ranked and mid-ranked families only need to send 50-100 people each, and they could win an easy war against the weak Sloan Family.
A mid-ranked family should at least have 500 people ready for war, after all. But the Sloan Family only had 200-300 despite being a mid-ranked mafia family.
How pathetic!
Hearing Lael's words, Blair silently sighed in relief.
"That's good, that's good. We can't underestimate the Sloan Family even if they're weak...I heard they still have the 7 great elders and the 9 generals."
"Ah, that's easy. Send over several ability users with 'neutralising' ability, and we're good. We can even send air forces, and those peeps can't even run."
Lael, someone who's experienced in joining a territorial war, knew well about small-scale warfare.
A good air force was essential to win this kind of war, but the Sloan Family's air forces deteriorated.
What Lael said as air forces weren't fighter jets or bombers, but more of aerial beasts and monsters.
After all, in the face of a mafia family's anti-air force barrier, only monsters and beasts could breach it.
Even though the Sloan Family fell to the mud, they're not stupid to disable their anti-air force barrier. If they did, one small bomb would have demolished their territories!
When Blair heard Lael's explanation, she couldn't help but nod excitedly.
"Good, good! Now, then...we should wait for the auction on the 100th floor in two days." Blair had a dreamy look on her face when she mentioned Billios Casino's weekly auction.
After all, she heard that they would auction an elf this time! The Billios Family had a close relationship with the elves, so it's kinda weird that they would auction one as a slave.
This elf should be a special entity, then.
Lael and Asael were also worked up to attend the auction. Not only could they buy some unique items, but the auction was also a place where status and connections matter.
In other words, they could enjoy others' envious gaze as they used the VVIP rooms up above!
And just like that, the fourth day in the capital passed by. The fifth day came…
It's time to collect more treasures to reach the 100th floor!
