Chapter 799: Chapter 794 Seeking Death by Himself_1

“I doubt that’s necessary. Since the other party isn’t worried, it shouldn’t be any of your concern, right? Even if it’s found out that you were the sellers, so what? You simply sold it, and it was the royal family who made the purchase. You have that right. But as for what they do with their purchase, who knows?” Shrugging her shoulders, Nora Rhodes said.@@novelbin@@

“If only it were that simple, but you know very well the state our family is in. I can guarantee that if those people in the family find out, even if the Surveillance Authority investigates, I can assure you that the Wren Clan will ultimately choose to take the blame themselves.” The young man sighed helplessly and said.

Nora Rhodes fell silent for a moment, then chose not to speak further. Of course, she knew about the relationship between the Wren Clan and the Lewis Family. Even though the decline of the Lewis Family had nothing to do with the Wren Clan, it was because the former patriarch of the Lewis Family did not want to ask the Wren Clan for help. If they had sought help, the Wren Clan would have lent a hand even at the cost of their own ruin.

No one knew the reason for this, whether known or not; it was not Nora Rhodes’s place to intervene. The young man in front of her was clearly connected to the future status of the Wren Clan. Of course, that would only matter if he were to inherit the entire clan.

Who knows when that will happen; there’s still a long time to go.

Finn Lewis, of course, was unaware that he had such an invisible ally. Presently, Finn Lewis wasn’t thinking about all this. However, he had asked Luna Starfield to keep an eye on the Surveillance Authority. To be honest, Finn Lewis was now very curious about Luna Starfield’s capabilities, which were certainly formidable.

Not to mention, although it was the era of dominance by individual AIs within the Galactic Federation, with large-scale applications of personal AIs in nearly every field, Finn Lewis still didn’t believe that personal AIs should be messed with indiscriminately.

For example, hacking and so on. And since everyone used personal AIs, why should yours be-better than mine? So, since Luna Starfield could even obtain information from the Surveillance Authority, Finn Lewis knew Luna Starfield must be formidable. But since Mike said there were no problems with Luna Starfield, it meant there were indeed no issues.

Finn Lewis then didn’t care anymore, as long as Luna Starfield was fine. After all, he trusted Mike, and if he couldn’t trust Mike, then the status Finn Lewis had today was all thanks to Mike.

“Your Highness, the Surveillance Authority is preparing to dispatch a fleet to Aitken Family territory,” Luna Starfield’s voice rang out. Finn Lewis nodded. Finally, it was happening. Nearly two weeks had passed since Jasmine Davis and her people had wiped out the Aitken Family’s warehouse and extorted 10 billion star credits from them.

And now the Surveillance Authority was ready to make their move. “Are they responding to the other party’s request?” Finn Lewis looked at Luna Starfield and asked.

“No, it’s more likely that someone is applying pressure behind the scenes. Requests from the royal family take priority, according to my calculations. It should be Suleiman Cooper who voluntarily provided intelligence and filed a request to the Surveillance Authority. Moreover, the Surveillance Authority should have started investigating Jasmine Davis and her fleet by now. After all, a first-class warship is quite rare,” Luna Starfield responded quickly.

“Hmm, I see. That’s an issue. But what if I submit a request now, saying that our territory might be in danger, would the Surveillance Authority send someone?” Finn Lewis pondered aloud.

“Certainly. Although your strength is far less than theirs, Your Highness, you are the family patriarch, a legitimate emperor, and a member of the nine-star royal family. The entire Surveillance Authority must prioritize your requests,” Luna Starfield said, her tone filled with amusement, clearly knowing what Finn Lewis intended to do.

“Alright, let’s proceed with that,” Finn Lewis nodded. “I’ll pay a visit to the Surveillance Authority.”

“As you wish, Your Highness,” Luna Starfield responded crisply. In fact, Finn Lewis didn’t need to go to the Surveillance Authority in person; he could communicate his concerns directly via communication. So, with ease, Finn Lewis got in touch with the Surveillance Authority and informed them of the threat of interstellar pirates in his star system, as well as the discovery of a large number of mutated interstellar insects, requesting protection and investigation from the Authority.

In response to the nine-star royal Finn Lewis’s request, the Surveillance Authority immediately postponed their planned mission to the Aitken Family, with a single word in reply: wait!

Suleiman Cooper almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he received the message. Dammit. But he had no other options. Maybe to others, Finn Lewis’s status as a nine-star royal was worthless, but to the Surveillance Authority, that status was very useful, right?

Because that’s what the Surveillance Authority cared about! And Finn Lewis was clearly causing trouble now. After all, this incident wouldn’t be easily let go by anyone. Since you’re ready to set someone up, you should be prepared to face retaliation, right?

Even though it was about setting someone up, not everyone could pull it off. In this case, Finn Lewis was using his rights within the rules, but as for the Surveillance Authority, they didn’t care at all about the noble in question’s well-being.

The actions of the Surveillance Authority were no secret, and this matter wasn’t a secret either. The entire incident quickly caused a commotion throughout the academy—now everyone knew what had happened. But by now, it was no longer just Mike’s problem, as Suleiman Cooper’s involvement was no secret either.

And since Suleiman Cooper had stepped in, that meant the nature of the incident had completely changed. It was no longer a conflict between ordinary nobles or an accident, but had escalated to a confrontation between direct heirs of two royal families, which also likely meant the two families might act from behind the scenes.

Of course, Finn Lewis was representing the Lewis Family directly, but whether the Rochefort Clan had taken any action was unknown, since everyone was aware of how large the Rochefort Clan was. As for Suleiman Cooper, who was a direct heir many generations removed, whether the clan knew or would act was a question mark.

The Surveillance Authority’s fleet’s redirection to Finn Lewis’s territory seemed, for the moment, to be the outcome. Because if Mike Aitken couldn’t find enough factories to produce the relevant warships in the given time frame, it would mean the Aitken Family would have to pay Finn Lewis a staggering 240 billion star credits. 240 billion star credits—nearly the entire Aitken Family fortune—would almost certainly become part of Finn Lewis’s own territories. After all, that’s probably all they could afford to pay from selling their assets.
