Chapter 281 - 281: Master Ito (Story & Surprise)



Even at this time of the day, Master Ito was working on some intel that he had received, and was most probably planning his best strategy to act.

That and the maid under his desk was giving him a pretty good mouth service, but that wasn\'t important to Eric at the moment.

​​

He would have wanted to immediately enter inside and receive a report from the guy, but unfortunately, he had to wait.

Even though Master Ito was his slave, he still wanted to honour the code of man, and not interrupt the moment of his slave.

Furthermore, how long would he be able to last like that, it wasn\'t like he would be able to go on all day anyway.

With that thought in mind, Eric had to wait for 30 minutes for the old man and that maid to finally finish what they were doing.

It was beyond his expectations, he would have never expected for an old man to be able to hang on that much, with a maid that was pretty good at what she did.

Leaving his surprise aside, the moment that Master Ito was done he sent him an order to stay alone in his office.

Master Ito was clearly surprised and startled with the sudden order he received, but he immediately did as he was told, and in less than 2 minutes Eric was standing in front of him with a weird look.

He was just looking at him not saying anything making Master Ito a bit confused, but as a old fox he was he just waited patiently for Eric to say something first, and he did,

"I have to admit that I had judged you wrongly Ito, I never thought that you would be able to posses that stamina, and strength at your age.

Maybe it\'s truly as they say, the older the better!"

Master Ito was unable to understand at first, but hearing the words stamina, and strength he got the idea of what Eric meant, as he asked with a startled face,

"Since when was Master looking at my shameful self!?"

Hearing that Eric felt a bit stupid for revealing the matter like that, and in order to not embarrass himself more, he decided to change topic,

"Give me a report of whatever happened this month!"

Master Ito felt wronged, as he wasn\'t the type that liked to be watched as he was fooling around, and yet someone had, and as if that wasn\'t enough the one to see him was his Master, younger than him.

This made the generally cool, and collected old man to feel really weird inside as he tried his best to forget about that, while giving his report,

"Ahem, ahem! In this month there have been quite a few attempts from outside and inside the country to try and find Master\'s and GrandMaster\'s location, but they all failed.

Most of them have retreated waiting for the next move, but a few of them are still around the place poking their noses to try and sniffle GrandMaster out.

Viper\'s Venom have moved a lot recently as well, they have taken the Motohara family under their direct protection, and also are helping them however they can to become a big family.

No matter how much they try though there always seems to be a king of dark force blowing up their plans, that seems to be using Master\'s name."

Hearing up to here, Eric couldn\'t help but get surprised at Master Ito\'s conjecture as he said,

"Oh, and what makes you think that it\'s not me, or someone working for me?"

"Well this is my personal conjecture, but those guys are being too careless! Master declared war on the organization, and Motohara family, but he wouldn\'t act only when their appetite increased.

With as much as I know Master, you would either completely destroy them, or let them play by your tune, you wouldn\'t take this approach!"

It sounded logical, but at the same time frightening as this old man had been able to look through his personality in such a short time.

It was his good luck to have chanced upon the moment to make this guy his slave, otherwise he would truly be in for a rough ride if he went against him.

As he was thinking about it, there was another thought coursing through his mind, how come this man was so weak.

After all, when he had enslaved Master Miura he was in a weak condition, but the same couldn\'t be said for this old man, furthermore even his system showed him to be level 23.

There was no way someone with that capacity, and intelligence would have trained only up to level 23, it just didn\'t make sense.

Wanting to satisfy his curiosity, he directly asked,

"You are truly frightening Ito, your intelligence and foresight would leave all those family heads of the big families in shame, which makes me wonder even more, why are you so weak!?"

Master Ito clearly didn\'t expect such a question, as it seemed like bad memories started surfacing once again through his head.

It was clear that he didn\'t really want to remember or talk about it, but Eric didn\'t seem to care what he wanted, as he was waiting for the story.

Left with no other choice, Master Ito had to obey the order, and answer the question,

"It\'s not that I wanted to stay weak, or that I didn\'t become strong, it\'s just that I wasn\'t strong enough when people noticed about me!"

Hearing that Eric could easily make a few conjectures of his own, but he still wanted to hear the story from him, as he encouraged him to go on,

"Oh, interesting, go on!"

"When my father died, and I had to take over the family, I was really young, full of dreams, and ideals for the future, and on top of that I had the intelligence and foresight to try and achieve them.

So, I immediately started my own path, increasing my wealth during the day, and increasing my strength during the night.

In less than 5 years the wealth that my father left behind had been multiplied by more than 10 times, while the strength I had managed to collect on the dark was comparable to the quasi big families.

On top of that, I married the only daughter of another 2nd rate family, and managed to fully merge them with my family.

More importantly my own personal strength was reaching High Heaven Realm, when I was still less than 30 years old, making me a genius.

Achieving all these things I became complacent, and thought that it was finally the time for me to announce my strength to the world, and take my family to the stage of big families.

In order to do that, I organized a big party, inviting all the big families, and the important figures of the time, including members of the government, and challenged the Takeshiba family Ancestor to a fight.

I thought that as long as I showed equal strength to his, then the big families would have to respect me, and also accept my family into their midst.

But damn was I mistaken!

In the challenge with the Takeshiba family\'s Ancestor I managed to corner him, and was even about to defeat him, but at the moment that I would make him accept defeat, something happened.

I don\'t know how he was able to make it, but I could feel my whole strength leaving my body, and then slowly fade away, as I got weaker and weaker.

That was the turning point, as from a potential powerhouse I became the joke of night. I was crippled, and beat until I was almost dead, and made an example for the others.

The next day that I woke up I found out that my strength had truly disappeared, and I had lost almost everything I had.

It was useless to fight an already lost war, so I just dispersed the strength I had gathered, and then decided to live this meaningless life.

I was living every day without a goal, or intention, just surviving every day. Breathing in and out, counting the seconds, minutes, hours, until my last breath, until you appeared Master!

I finally feel that my life has a meaning, and a goal once again, which is to serve you. I don\'t know how you did it, or how you manipulated me, but it surely is better than just surviving for sure."

He wasn\'t saying that in order to please Eric, it was the truth, he truly felt that way. Even his hunger for the fleshly passion had returned to him only a short time ago.

On the other hand, Eric didn\'t know what to think after that story. It was just too unbelievable after all, as there was no news, or any proof of this ever happening.

As if reading his mind, Master Ito said with a tone of mocking himself,

"In a world controlled by the wolf, it is impossible for the fox tale to be told!"

Those words truly made sense, and it wasn\'t that Eric didn\'t understand the logic behind them, it was just that it was too unbelievable.

This whole story seemed like some kind of dark soap opera where reality wins over dreams, and ideals.

Who would have expected that this old looking smart guy like Master Ito was hiding such a story behind him?

But most importantly there was one point that made Eric to pay more attention than any other, which if it was right, it would help him receive a big gift from his slave…
