Way of Overlord-Chapter 339: Knowing the Hearts of the People

He is testing his uncles and his elders.

If they want to treat him like a puppet, this is the best time to wrest the control of the tribe from him

If by the time he returns back to the tribe, the power is returned to him, then from that moment on, he would no longer doubt his uncles and his elders.

If he returns home and the power in the hand of his uncles and elders, then Ayuka would follow another method that Jayeux had told him

Jayeux not only gives him hint about how to create an alienation plan among the children of Garron and Garron but he also leave a parchment full of advice and method.

Jayeux warned him that he does not yet knows the heart of these people who bring him to these seat

Jayeux advices him, that he rose to the position of the chief not by his own desire and will but pushed by the people who are dissatisfied with the first son.

Many of them professed loyalty and but humans hearts are the most unpredictable.

But it is not that he could hide the bow after the birds are gone.

If he does that, he would suffer even greater backlash than the one his brother experience.

What should he do then?

He should see and test the loyalty of these people

Were they really sincere in their submission towards him?

If they are sincere, the tribe could be moulded into one great cohesive unit and Kazan could unite and resume the alliance and he as the chief could rest easy in his throne without worrying the same fate that happens to his brother would happen to him

Actually, the advice of Jayeux hit straight to the point.

Ayuka even though he shows smiles and treated his elders and great warriors of the tribe with great honour and care, he is also afraid of them

Why?

Because these people could easily overthrow his brother from the position of chief. And then raise him up to that seat

Since, they could do that to his brother, why could he not do that to him? If that is the case, how could he enjoy being the chief?

It is like he is a lone lion and around him are all hyenas ready to tear him apart the moment this lion does anything against their interest

Even though all of these elders, his uncles, his brothers and the great warriors of the tribe all pledge his allegiance to him, how could his heart not be wary?

And Jayeux seems to be able to see this.

Even though he is an outsider and he meet him only a few hours, Jayeux ability to see through his heart even scares Ayuka.

Yes, he feel uncertain to take the seat of the chief.

But now, that he is sitting on the seat, he is uncertain whether he could keep it.

Now that the conclusion is already written, he is now the chief.

But, would he be able to retain it?

How could he trust his elders? How could he trust these forces that overthrow his brother?

The more he cares for these forces, the more its shows that he is actually afraid of them

But Ayuka himself is a person who knows the trend of the world. If Kazan is to be strong, the tribe must first be united.

The first method is to clear all of these rebellious element. Capture his uncles, kills those who participated in the coup and imprison the elders

But what would happen if he does that?

Ayuka could guess the ending.

He probably would end up the same as his older brother. And it was at this moment Ayuka reads Jayeux method.

Test their loyalty.

If they return back the power to him and truly did not covet the power of the chief, then from now on, Ayuka could order these people without doubt and he hsiemfl would feel secure in his eat as a chief.

But if they shows rebellious intention and wanting to control the power of the chief from behind the scene, Jayeux explain to him there is a method that he could use but the elders and the warriors could not use.

Using absence to increase reputation!

If they take the power, the resign. The prerequisite is that his presence must be known and his importance must be vital before he could use this method.

If not this method could not be used.

Jayeux suggested to him if the tribe takes power from him, then he simply could resign from being chief and exile himself.

Then let the chaos reign.

But before employing this method, Jayeux reminded him that there are certain prerequisite he must fulfill.

And his meeting with the chief of Utgard and the resuming of the alliance is one of that prerequisite.

It is why he had come personally. Garron does not know this but Ayuka is as eager as him to resume the alliance. Garron wanted to resume the alliance because he fears external problems that could affect him

Ayuka wanted to resume the alliance because of the internal problem of his tribe. The objective is the same but the reason for it is different.

Garron tribe is plagued by external problem. But as for internal, the tribe is very united under Garron.

The only penetrating point is the contention between the heirs. And even that does not yet reach a point of life and death struggle

As for Kazan, even if they lose Rudya, Ayuka still have many methods to make Utgard tribe rue the day they betray the Kazan.

But the internal problem of the Kazan tribe is very intense.

To Ayuka, the external enemies is not as important as the internal enemy.

Jayeux did not have to advise him on the most important maxim of waging battle.

And that is, if the internal problem is not solved, how could you wage battle outside with a peace of mind?

The rear is not guarded, and you could have a fate of a trapped beast.

Now that Ayuka had determined a few things at that time, he employed the method and now all the prerequisite has been fulfilled

he had raise his importance

before he was the heir.

The heir that got propped up by the warriors and the elders.

Now he is the chief that made the alliance resumed. If he resigns now, the alliance between the Kazan and Utgard would break again.

And knowing Garron he would surely make chaos

Garron would surely use the same excuse that he had used to take Rudya.

Then at that time, who would the chief called and who would the people of tribe call to preside this matter.

At that time, he could assume back full control and his power would probably become even more powerful than ever.

Jayeux told him that the more you are seen and heard, the more common you appear.

Temporary withdrawal from an established group will make you more talked about and even more admired. Learn when to use absence to make your presence known. Create value through scarcity.

Of course, if he returns home and the tribe did not take his over, he did not need to use this second step.

Ayuka then focused back on his conversation with Sayushi. Talking with him and seeing the eyes of Garron toward his second son, Ayuka could not help but think that the plan he had concocted could work.

"The Rudya tribes member could be loyal to us. Because they have no choice now" And Ayuka only nodded to this.

Now, that he talks with Sayushi he noticed even more difference between him and Ogura. This second son of Garron is very educated.

He could speak Roma, knows Yan language, could speak in the words of the Songnu and Sirong, has some knowledge about the words of the Ashran and Eresian, educated, polite, elegant and more of gentlemen than compared to Ogura

At this, Ayuka also asked garron, how could such a person master so many language.

Garron was not shy to brag about his second son.

He had a teacher from the Ashran and Eresian tutor. These Ashran and Eresian also teaches him Roma.

And from the slaves of the yan, his second son learns the word of the Yan language.

Garron himself look down on Yan people and but he did not hate them as fiercely like Dama and many other chief of the Southern Great Steppe

This has something to do with the fact that he lives in the Central Great Steppe in the past and that the tribe come from the Central Steppe in the first place.

That place has never been breached by any foreign forces.

So, it is hard for Garron to understand the hatred of the people of the Southern Great Steppe had toward the Yan people.

But Garron does disdain Yan people.

Almost all of the Yan people he met are people who break faith and none of their words could be trusted.

For profit and power and fame, they could even sell their sons and daughter.

Yes, Garron himself could not be trusted. He is cunning. He could lie.

And trick people.

But he would never sell his sons and family. If he was that kind of person that have no lines at all that he would not cross, then how could the Ashana vouch for such a person. frёewebηovel.cѳm
