Living In The Future ABO

Gyasi made the order to the system which sent him to the palace kitchens, as he had a not very regulated schedule, there were two shifts in the kitchen for when he needed to eat something or if he brought in late visitors or held evening meetings.

"So what happened today that you're so distracted?" Mu Liang asked kissing Gyasi's shoulder, pulling back a little to look at Gyasi's handsome and serious face.

"It's a long story..."

Gyasi sighed before telling everything that happened, of course, he had to omit some information that could be considered secrets like the existence of spies and the issue of mind-controlling worms, the last one was not to trigger a trigger in Mu Liang because from past experiences with the soul-devouring worm.

Panda: (...)

I am innocent, I swear!

Mu Liang was shocked by the information he received, of course, he already confirmed that he would give whatever help was needed for the plan to build new types of Mecha, but he would have to consult his parents about a direct contract with the Tang-Kai Empire.

"My second eldest brother should be arriving tomorrow, we can officially speak to him along with eldest brother Ade"

As Mu Liang is Gyasi's fiancé, the conversation would not be seen as being neutral, but they could consider it to be the will of a person in love, or worse they could consider that he was now not seeing all the benefits for the Tang-Kai empire, so Mu Qiao being the intermediary would make the decision less attacked by both the nobles of Tang-Kai and the nobles of the Diablo Empire.

"That would be a good idea, your second eldest brother is quite famous in Mecha combat, he will know if our idea is good or not for Mecha combat."

Mechas are divided into three categories, Guardian Mecha, Combat Mecha, and Entertainment Mecha.1 Combat Mecha types have their own division as it will depend on the strength and talent of each Mecha pilot. Guardian Mechas are the Mechas that stay in the nation protecting outer space and the planet's borders from possible invasions.

Entertainment Mechas are the Mechas used for Mecha combats that are broadcast across the galaxy, there are tournaments and championships for these Mechas, they are also used for each Nation's show of strength, so they may be using new weapons and items to ostentation.

The difference between the Combat and Entertainment Mecha is that the Entertainment Mecha is not allowed to fly outside the arenas, as if these Mechas could fly freely they would cause chaos, and nor does it have the ability to fight off-planet.

There was something else that Gyasi had omitted in the conversation, he spoke very superficially about the new ore that could revolutionize Mecha construction, but Mu Liang didn't realize it.

The truth is that Mu Liang was curious about the Mecha, but in general, he was still very skeptical and even prejudiced about a machine taking the place of martial cultivation power.

The next day, Gyasi looked stunned at Chewe who seemed to have run out of the duke's mansion. The messy black hair and the panda circles under his eyes betrayed the man's sleepless night.

"What happened?" Mu Liang asked seeing his good doctor in that state. After so long meeting and being examined by Chewe, Mu Liang invariably ended up having good feelings for the doctor.

"My father…" Chewe then began to talk about what had happened and a little of what was going on behind the scenes of the nobles who supported Emperor Ade.

It wasn't everyone who supported Ade who acted like that, ironically, it's the old supporters of the imperial family who had such a backward mentality, luckily, Ade had the support of his mother's family and the others who came with the Achebe Family.

The condition of such support for Ade is that he didn't marry species that weren't part of the Zerg, he didn't necessarily need to be a Zerg Diablo, but he would have to be at least a Zerg.

"In other words, the imperial family does not support the union of Emery and older brother Ade and they are trying to make Emery's life very bad or put a crime in his head so he will either walk away on his own or he is so suspicious that this will make it impossible for Ade to marry him"

Mu Liang summed up the goals of these meddlesome nobles well, which left Gyasi and Chewe surprised, they had thought the nobles would be against the union of Emery and Ade, but they hadn't thought so deeply about the plans the nobles were making, with just a little bit of information Mu Liang deduced the method the nobles were using to get Emery out of the way.

"Don't look at me like that, I have more information than you. After all, Emery always comes to talk to me when he's feeling cornered"

Mu Liang said with a shrug, he didn't think he was that smart, he just had a past life where schemes were plentiful and he had some more information than Chewe and Gyasi, after all, he knew he had an assassination attempt to the emperor, but that it was stopped by Emery in time.

In fact, it would be two attempts, as there was a shadow coming from a curse that invaded the emperor's room, which led to Emery being arrested for no reason. However, the shadow was trapped in the laboratory and Emery was unable to investigate who could have been the mastermind of such a curse.

From what Chewe said, Mu Liang wondered whether or not he should talk about Ade's assassination attempt to Gyasi. They didn't do the interrogation on the same day, as Mu Liang brought up the question of whether or not it would be better to call Gyasi to testify, as even if they got the confession, it could be considered as evidence?

Emery said he would think about it, if they should take this to some competent authority or if they would do it themselves, after all, apart from the murderer's confession, they would have to get more evidence.

"My older brother is stubborn, he won't give in to the will of these nobles," Gyasi said a little worried, his biggest fear was that Ade's "supporters" would turn against his brother.

Which meant that Ade's life would be in constant danger which would generate instability and chaos in the government, even more so with the terrorists and enemies becoming stronger, which would make Gyasi stay longer in the Diablo Empire, but much of his friends and subordinates were on an exploration mission entering a new galaxy.

Then made him very apprehensive, but he knew he would have to stay in the Diablo Empire until everything stabilized. He would even have to consider bringing his crew back because of the many problems the empire was facing.

"I'd like to place a little shameless order, but could I stay here until I find a nice apartment or house to buy?" Chewe asked after a minute of tense silence.

Chewe had spent the night at a military friend's house, but he didn't want the friend to get involved in his problems and end up hurting himself, so as soon as dawn broke he went to Cousin Gyasi's palace to ask for temporary help.

"No need to feel uncomfortable, of course, you are welcome to take the time to reorganize yourself" Mu Liang was very kind and welcoming, after all, in addition to being related to Gyasi, Chewe was also his doctor in his early days in the Empire Diablo.

"But are you sure cousin of your decision? You know you will no longer be heir to the duchy"

"I have no problem with that, I'm still rich and if I want a noble title I can apply for the title of Count that belonged to my mother and which was rescued by uncle Ehione when she married my father"

"Besides, you can borrow part of your mother's land. Both you and Naira are entitled to the county lands that were attached to the Azikiwe duchy," Gyasi said patting Chewe on the shoulder.

"The truth is that I think you should ask for the title of earl and the lands, as it will be very problematic if we lose one more nobleman who truly supports the Ade" Gyasi spoke again a little more seriously and with a better solution. crafted for Chewe.

Chewe said he would think about it because he knew he would have to take such a request to the court and he would have to face his father and younger sister to get the title and land.

That would make the family relationship even worse for him.

"Don't worry too much, I'll talk to my father, maybe he can convince Uncle Akin without involving a trial that would be shameful for the entire imperial family"

Everyone knew of the good relationship between Akin and Ehione, so it would be better if the brothers talked and could settle everything without embarrassing the imperial family.

"The biggest problem is whether I would just be a Count without subordination or if I would be subordinate to a stronger nobleman. Gyasi, I don't want to be subordinate to my father, it would be equally worse than just being heir to the duchy"

"Actually, I was thinking of making you the nobleman who would lead the petit nobles who are the military who have achieved titles of barons and viscounts, but who are alienated by the powerful old nobles"
