Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! - Volume 4 - Chapter 46

Chapter 46

“Good evening, your majesty . ”

I turned around to see Freya who was dressed in simplistic clothing . She wore a very simple long-white dress as if there was no pattern on there . It was virtually like a maid’s uniform . She looked at me and then saluted me gracefully . She then raised her head up to look at me . After having a fulfilling meal and a good rest, her face looks much more radiant like a pearl that had the dust covering it cleaned off .

I looked at her, smiled and asked: “Good evening, Freya . How are you feeling now?”

“I have recovered . Thank you for asking, your majesty . Now, if you do not intend to rest now, I shall explain to you my plan . ”

She bowed and then walked up to me . I shook my head with a smile and stood up . I looked toward the inner court and said: “While I really want to go to Castor and stab that kid to death, her majesty’s birthday is coming up . I don’t have the time to go to Castor . What the church and Castor did made me very angry, but mom is the most important to me . This is the first time I’m celebrating her birthday . I don’t want to miss it . ”

“Her majesty’s birthday . ” She repeated what I said and then nodded . She then continued, “Yes, that is very important, very, very important . However your majesty, my plan does not require you to personally go there . Instead, you just have to wait for Castor’s regent to take the initiative to come and beg you . If it is quick, a week is sufficient . ”

I turned to face her with shock . I looked at her . Her blue eyes were calm and collected . She looked at me as she said: “It is actually quite simple . We do not have any evidence to get Castor’s regent to admit to her crimes, but we know that she committed them, and that is enough . While we cannot scare her, she can scare herself . Since she relies on the church for her operations, we just need to cause in-fighting between them . ”

She walked up to my table and said: “We will be able to hand down our judgement to this incident very soon . When the time comes, the people will become furious when they discover that they tried to poison them . They will hate them when they discover that they were trafficking people, and they will get angry when they discover that they were robbed . They will be elated after receiving our money . And thus, the church will lose the hearts of the people . We then give two ambiguous orders . We can ask the churches in various places to publicise their finances, thereby leading to the masses losing trust with the church . When the time is ripe, we can instigate the people, and they will vandalise the church . The reason the church is fearless is because they are the source of the people’s faith and the people trust them . Once they lose their trust, they will naturally be powerless . At the same time, we will come down on businesses with an iron-fist . Therefore, businesses will not donate to the church any further . After losing the trust of the people and their source of income, the church will be powerless to fight against the royal family . That is when the church will admit defeat and surrender . Then I require what you have, your majesty . ”

“What I have?”

She nodded and replied: “Castor’s envelope . We first put Castor’s envelope in an envelope, and then put a new envelope inside Castor’s envelope . We will then stamp it with the church’s seal, and stamp the outermost envelope with the royal family’s seal . This will hint to the church that Castor has betrayed them . ”

I nodded to indicate she could continue so she continued: “Next, I believe that the church will say that they had no involvement with this matter . Additionally, they will definitely submit evidence of Castor’s involvement with your assassination in order to remedy the relationship with the royal family . After that, we will take the envelope the church sent us and send it to Castor’s regent . That way, Castor will understand that the church has already betrayed them .

At this point, we could go and kill her . However, that would make the church the ones who revealed the people that tried to assassinate the prince, and they would get the credit . That is disadvantageous for us . Consequently, we will add a fragment of the statue we picked up from the church that was broken on top of the envelope . In other words, the statue used to transport salt illegally which you discovered . At this point, I think that Castor’s regent will send us evidence against the church in order to wash their hands off the matter .

I trust that Castor’s regent will have begun to make her own move by then . On one hand, she would be preparing to flee . On the other hand, she will try to negotiate with the church . So when the letter gets sent, we need to have the army in Castor seal off the coasts as well as the in-land roads at the same time . Essentially, we are creating the impression that we are trying to forcefully arrest Castor’s regent . As that happens, we will let a young child send in an object you keep close to you and the map of the capital . That is essentially threatening their regent, saying that if she does not come to the royal capital, we will kill her child . There is no mother who would let her child die to keep herself safe . After that, their regent will come to the royal capital to beg for mercy on her own accord . ”

She put the pen down and then calmly stood to one side and said: “That is the entirety of the plan . I think this can be considered a very simple ‘sowing discord among the enemies’ plan . Because of the church’s failure this time, I do not think that Castor’s regent would be surprised that they betrayed her . She would also be furious with the church . It will become ‘since you betrayed me, I shall betray you’ . Even if you were to put two devoted lovers in two separate rooms, they will certainly betray each other . Plus, we already have evidence against both of them . ”

She bent over and then raised her head with a smile . It should’ve been a child’s smile, but instead it was filled with maturity and viciousness . I never expected her idea of destroying the church was to this degree . I never thought of the sowing discord between them strategy . I looked at her in a spaced out fashion as if it was the first time I’d met her . She smiled and asked: “What is wrong, your majesty? Did I say something strange?”

“No…… No . It’s just that I never thought… that your plan could really destroy the church……”

She looked at me with a smile and said: “I told you, I am a descendent of a noble family . I promised you that I would help you destroy the church so I must make it a reality . I do not need your pity or sympathy . I need your power . Since I can help you destroy the church, please agree to a request of mine . ”

I looked at her and nodded . How much competence is in that small body of hers? Whether it’s determination, pride or intellect, she has achieved a level only adults could . Only Castell as far as I know has given me that impression . I can’t read her at all .

She smiled as she walked up to me and said: “Your majesty, please give me fame . If possible, I would like to become your sister . That’s right . I need to return to this world as ‘his majesty’s sister’ or ‘his majesty’s adopted sister’ . I want to revive the glory of the Vestalia household . Hence, I need everybody to respect my identity . If possible, could my salary please be allowing me to call you ‘onii-sama’ . ”

I looked at her and blankly asked: “So you came to me for your own ends?”

I never expected this . I thought I saved a girl, or rather, when I met her, she had already treated me as her pawn .

“You can say that . ”

She nodded . But then she shook her head and said: “As a member of the Vestalia household, I want to use your majesty, but as Freya, I want to stay by your side . However, regardless of what the case is, our interests are the same . Your majesty, I shall devote my body, brain, blood, flesh and soul to you . I shall follow your orders henceforth . At the same time, you shall in turn provide me with glory and fame . I shall respect you, devote my loyalty to you and be proud of my loyalty to you . What do you think, onii-sama?”

She strongly emphasised the last two words . I looked at her two blue eyes blankly . Her blue eyes were like the deep sea with the bottom nowhere in sight . I looked at her and slowly nodded .

“Thank you very much, onii-sama . Please allow me to attend her majesty’s birthday banquet with you, onii-sama . Your sister Freya, bids you goodnight, onii-sama!”
