Chapter 606: Chapter 337 Siege Network and Territory Disaster Punishment_3

Joe Joseph the butler was full of emotions, having not seen such a great victory in a long time. "Master, you can make any demands on them now that you have the Viscount as a captive," he said.

Ivita shook his head. "The people of the Ice Wolf Family are all in my hands. I don’t need to make any demands."

"Their territory is mine."

The butler was startled, he anxiously said, "But you have no legal claim to their territory, directly seizing it is not in accordance with the kingdom’s laws and noble laws. Unless you have the right to claim, violation of law, irrespective of the reaction of others, will bring disaster upon your territory."

Ivita said, "I’ve thought about this a long time ago."

In the afternoon, he met with the Viscount Ice Wolf and his two captured adult sons in a side hall of the castle. They were all ragged and smelly, looking like beggars.

The Iron Mountain Knight threw them harshly in front of Ivita, making them kneel before him.

Viscount Ice Wolf raised his head in distress. "You...you are Ivita? I want to complain about you. You can’t do this to me. I can pay a ransom, but you and your men must treat nobles properly."

"I also want to complain about your subordinates, that Iron Mountain Knight was too rude to me, and that Hearthstone Witch..."

The Hearthstone Witch chuckled.

Viscount Ice Wolf immediately changed his words. "No, not the witch, I don’t complain about her."

Ivita cut him short. "I don’t need a ransom, I want your territory."

The pupils of the Ice Wolf Viscount suddenly shrank, "You...you are insane, you could exchange a part of the territory through an agreement, taking the entire territory of someone else is equivalent to rebelling noble and kingdom laws. Under the kingdom’s law, even if you manage to take the territory, you will first have to face a fifteen-year-long ’Territory Famine Punishment’."

"The territory you get will constantly experience disasters, and by then, that piece of territory will actually become your burden."

"And by violating noble laws, you might even draw in those who support the noble law, leading to your encirclement and condemnation. You will fall into the ’Siege Network’, becoming a public enemy."

"Don’t even dream about me willingly ceding the entire territory to you, it’s impossible and it’s not in accordance with the inheritance law of my territory."

Ivita said, "Don’t make it sound so dire. Most of the people who support the noble law are in the Magic Black Forest, not on Cross Island. There won’t be a Siege Network on Cross Island."

"Besides, it’s just a Viscount’s territory, it won’t get that serious."

Ivita knew that in the middle of the Magic Black Forest, where the Holy Gold Rose Empire nominally rules, the nobles there have another set of rules due to the stronghold of the noble law.

Viscount Ice Wolf said, "The most you can do is to take away some of my territory. Otherwise, even the Earl won’t let you off."

"The Earl, he can’t stop me. My goals will inevitably clash with his, so I have no thoughts of avoiding him." Ivita shook his head and speaking to the two young men behind the Ice Wolf Viscount, "The fifteen-year-long ’Territory Famine Punishment’ is indeed troublesome and I indeed do not have the right to claim your territory."

"But the two brothers kneeling there, are you willing to inherit your father’s territory and submit to me?"

Upon hearing this, Viscount Ice Wolf widened his eyes and felt a chill go down his spine. "You..."

He felt the looks from behind him as if they were backstabbing him.

The Hearthstone Witch started cheering. "That’s a good idea! Isn’t this a way to bypass the kingdom’s laws?!"

"Right, if you want to inherit the title of Viscount Ice Wolf, your father has to die. Which one of you will kill your own father?!"

Ivita slightly frowned and gave the Hearthstone Witch a glance.

Viscount Ice Wolf lost all his defiance and nervously said, "Patricide is a heinous crime against human morals and faith! Witch, you are heartless and crazy! Wait, Lord Ivita, why do you have to do this, I have a better solution!!"
