"Sorry for this terribly stupid interruption but where the hell am I situated in?" Jin questioned and Dyke smiled. 

"You are currently in the central duchy too where I am residing, your territory Mount Sunn but it is unfortunately at the northern portion of the Empire." 

"Huh? I do not get what you mean." Jin was totally confused by Dyke's explanation.

"The Northern Duchy has graciously allowed me to take over that portion of uninhabited land as mine in return for a rather resourceful territory. He had already given me the rights to it and had been approved by the administrator. That was why I was able to appoint you as Lord through the vestiges of my power.  Though technically speaking, I could do that even without the Northern Duchy's assistance. But it was for a mutual understanding and benefit -cough. His benefit in the long run." 

"Oh, great. does that mean that if you ever get backstabbed by the Northern Duchy, I would be the first to get the brunt of it?" Jin asked as he felt that this civil war is indeed unavoidable. There were no peaceful assassinations or one time fights. In his mind, all he could think of were all the opportunity costs that he would incur for not letting his customers and fellow cultivators join in this war. The money making possibility was endless in a civil war. 

"We had signed a pact and he should follow it as much as possible to incur as little penalties. Though, if he were to betray me for something of value then yes, you will ultimately receive the brunt of it."

"If you are going through with it,  what's the timeline? I don't suppose you are going to get the Imperial Family right here and right now. After, this entire incident. Are you even ready for it?" 

"No, we are not. But the sooner we act, the better we will be in such a position. However, I thought it would be a wise choice to tell you first since now you are technically my boss and the System had said you've been through quite a number of wars yourself."

"Hold on. Hold on." Jin said the situation he was in currently was also not entirely the best place to make such a big decision too. "Hold your bloody horses. I will get back to you but are you able to dispatch your troops and investigators to Daimon City as soon as possible?" 

"Why?" Archduke Dyke could not get around Jin's logic upon doing so and Jin chuckled.

"Take over Diamondz." Those three words were something that Dyke could not have expected. That was when Jin could feel that Archduke Dyke's brain was running like clockwork. 

"I see. I see..." Dyke knows that in a civil war, he needs resources and soldiers. He knew there were only two routes to this. It was to either to throw a heck lot of money to buckle down for a long civil war or go for a one time heavy hitting strike and hope that the Imperial Family would be dethroned. But acquiring Diamondz Manufacturing would be a different matter entirely.

This way, the Archduke can have a reliable source of soldiers and equipment without worrying too much about the high extortion prices. And since it is in the Central Duchy region, he can make it covert while disabling a major source of 'income' to the imperial family as well. 

"Have you planned this all along??"

"Heh, no way. As much as I want to take credit for thinking that way, I have no idea that you are going to declare a civil war," Jin sighed.

"Alright. I also heard that you decided to induce yourself into my personal army. This will make things easier since we want Diamondz to be under our control. Thereby, I am promoting you to a full colonel, skipping ranks for your excellent job in defending Mount Sunn and uncovering the hidden horrors that Diamondz CEO Edmond Diamondz had committed. You have the authority to take over the current situation and make sure Diamondz is responsible for the atrocities it had committed in Daimon City." Archduke Dyke said and Jin believed that he was doing this because he was the only one at the scene right now.

If they were able to take charge of the situation before the Daimon city officials and other security forces step in, there might be a chance a total takeover of Diamondz would be possible under Archduke's name. "Roger that, I get my Mechanoid to look up on the legality of stuff while we assume control of this investigation and put Diamondz company on hold for a 'full scale investigation'," Jin said and Archduke Dyke had decided to follow Jin's directions for now.

"Then, find out fully why Edmond Diamondz was doing this, I will be sending an investigation team and a security team to secure the perimeters as well. Also, without further ado, as per your instructions, your lordship post would not take effect until the imperial family gives the nod. We will be withholding that civil incursion till we are fully ready."  Archduke Dyke said before closing the chat which made Jin sigh.

"System, anyway we can make some negotiations with the AI Synthesis Administration? This is clearly something that will do much good to the shop and earn money." Jin gave the System some food for thought while the chaos around the 35th and 36th floors.

"Indeed, the Dungeons and Pandas have not been making any sustainable profits and the System believed this civil war would definitely carry much interest in our store." The System replied. "Perhaps, we can redesign and recreate similar machines to enter into Synthesis World's Virtual Simulation and log out safely too." 

"That requires you to talk to the Synthesis World, they probably want something in return," Jin said and if the System could grind like a devil, they would have shown it to Jin before he took charge of the current situation by contacting Page, his Mechanoid filled with a bountiful knowledge on the supposed legal system of this place.
