Chapter 929 Zero to a 100 because I just wanna get shit done

On that note, it seemed like our presence was needed by Sal once again, but from the earlier display, all I needed to do was smile and wave. I was pretty sure that these people had only dipped their toes in the dark side when the world ended while Sal was soaking in it for quite a time.

But yeah, there were a few people who wanted to use this as an opportunity to get ahead of the pack that was recently stomped on.

We were by one of the unoccupied tables near this huge display of food with this pyramid thingy of champagne glasses, and I was like a dealer who was listening to these people\'s problems and offering a solution.

I have talked to several people almost offering the same shit they did with Sal but the next one that followed thought I was a greenhorn who didn\'t know better. He tried to make himself as non-threatening as possible but I was watching everyone that approached me or was just looking around and this guy thought he caught an easy break.

"M-Mr. Ishiyama, I would like to introduce myself— My name is Augustin and I have a proposition that\'ll benefit us greatly…"

"Alright, I\'ll bite—"

"Very well! You see, we have 30 hectares of land that\'s very rich and—"

"I\'m sorry, I\'m not interested in land right now…"

"P-Pardon?"

"You see, I can easily get my hands on 30 hectares of land. It\'ll be better for you to offer them to Sal as well—"

"B-But this land is something you wouldn\'t need to lift a finger on. Aside from the rustic manor, trees and crops are planted and we\'re just waiting for the harvest season—"

"Then why are you offering it to me? What\'s the catch?"

"N-No catch at all. It\'s just wasn\'t being used and we\'d like your expertise on the matter…"

\'Trying to put a wedge between me and Sal? Pfft…\'

"That\'s a lie. You don\'t just offer a manor and a huge plot of land for nothing. If you want to negotiate a deal— no, fuck this shit… I don\'t wanna do this shit while my date\'s made herself this beautiful… C\'mon, Edith…"

"W-Where are we—"

I smiled as I offered a hand, "We\'re dancing!"

"O-Okay!"

And before we could even take a single step to the dance floor, the same dumbass grabbed on my shoulder for a hail mary.

"M-Mr. Ishiyama, wait a second—"

"Don\'t fucking touch me—"

"I was just—"

But before he could utter another word, he found himself several feet in the air before he discovered how hard the flooring was with his body. It was hilarious to see his delayed reaction to the whole scenario but Edith and I were the first ones on the dance floor who started dancing, and Sebastian was kind enough to provide the music for us.

People didn\'t know whether to pay attention to the dumbass or the couple who started dancing right after that, but a portion of my group joining us to do the waltz was already an answer to that question.

Though Edith was still a nervous wreck.

"T-This is embarrassing…"

"Dancing with me?"

"N-No! N-Not that! I-It\'s just I\'ve n-never danced in front of people b-before…"

"Only when Sebastian taught you?"

"Wha— How did you know?"

"Seems pretty obvious to me…"

"Oh… He\'s really great— I mean, pretty patient with me… no matter how many times I stepped on his feet…"

"You did a couple of times, actually—"

"W-What?! I—"

"No worries, haha…"

"T-This is really embarrassing… I thought I was doing r-really well…"

"You are, you are… You said you\'ve never danced in front of people, right? This is already a huge step compared to that…"

"T-Thank you…"

In any case, it didn\'t take long before Kaley and Tatiana "accidentally" bumped into us so Kaley could swoop in and steal me away, but to their surprise, I ended up with Tatiana who funnily enough just went with it. But yeah, seeing Kaley pouting cutely was one of the highlights of this dance session though we did end up dancing with each other after Tatiana saw a whole pig roasted to perfection.

To this moment, I still haven\'t seen this Lisa person who Jesus had fallen for but Jesus was definitely gone for some time—probably helping with the rest of the food preparation.

"H-Hey… You\'re dancing with me now… W-What are you thinking of?"

"Ah— Can\'t you just read my mind and find out?"

"You! You know I can\'t do that!"

"I knew you were a fake~"

"You doofus…"

"I\'m just kidding, sorry… It\'s just I need to look away for a few…"

"Hmm? Why?"

"Have you looked in a mirror? You know I can\'t pop a boner with all these people?!"

"Pfft… You\'re an idiot…"

"Haha… Yeah… I just didn\'t think we could still do this kind of thing in the middle of you know… this…"

"There\'s a lot of things I didn\'t think was possible other than this, you know?"

"Well~ You got me there… Did anything happen while—"

"While Edith\'s hogging you all to herself? Maybe."

"Oh, c\'mon…"

"I\'m not jealous, maybe a little— I\'m just wondering how you\'d make it up to me… After all, I made myself look this pretty for you and you spend your night with her the most… Also… she asked me of something earlier and I just had to say yes to that, y\'know?"

"What do you mean?"

Kaley cutely rolled her eyes, "What do you think? She asked for a bit of time alone with you and her maid—Nancy was it? To you know… make it a little special…"

"Ah…"

"Don\'t worry—no, you should worry because we\'re waiting for you after that… We\'ll do you if you can\'t do us right after, got it?"

"K-Kaley? You—"

"Pfft… I\'m joking, of course… I don\'t mind at all but yeah… you\'ll be missing out on something… very… very… hot…"

At that moment, Kaley embraced me a little closer and tighter as she kept eye contact, and from our position, we were almost kissing as we could feel each other\'s breaths but the way Kaley was just looking at me was making me feel all sorts of ways.

"Oh, come on~ You do know that I\'ll drop anything and everything for you, don\'t do me like that…"

"Shh… I know you will but… It\'s just so hot seeing you come back after those two beauties and wanting more from me… Just me… E-Either way… I\'ve been seeing how those other women have been looking at you and it\'s just a t-turn on, to say the least… You\'ve no idea how much they want to sleep with you tonight…"

Seeing Kaley like this, I shook my head and gave her a deep kiss in front of everyone as I held her even closer:

"You do know I don\'t care a single bit, right? You\'ve no idea how much I want to sleep with just you tonight—no… Every. Single. Night. If it matters…"

As soon as I said that, I had a thought that we\'d just fuck in front of everybody but our little moment was interrupted by the champagne tower crashing under itself due to an "accident". But to my surprise, Lopez, who I thought who was keeping his head low for most of our trip seemed to be the perpetrator.

But yeah, even I could tell that his face was telling everyone that he didn\'t do it, and he was trying his hardest to look for a person among the crowd of strangers close to him but to no avail.

To my surprise, even if he had no choice, he took the blame for himself, "I-I— I APOLOGIZE FOR THE DISTURBANCE! I-I\'LL HELP CLEAN RIGHT AWAY!"

At that point, the first person to react was Sebastian, who was already making his way toward the scene of the crime while Nancy and the rest were carrying the same mops as earlier while shooting daggers through Lopez\'s back. I didn\'t think I\'d feel sorry for the guy for all he has done but owning up to something that he wasn\'t even responsible for was a step in the right direction.

However, that still didn\'t excuse all the shit he had done but what came after that embarrassing display was something I didn\'t expect from this crowd of people.

Lopez was actually helping clean up the mess that was thrown at him but several whispers were being thrown around at a volume loud enough for everybody present to hear them clearly.

"Goodness gracious… That\'s so embarrassing…"

"Wasn\'t he from the Ishiyama Family?"

"He looks like a creep…"

"Why\'s Sebastian doing nothing to that guy?"

"Favoritism, I think…"

"Ah…"

"He\'s with those people, figures…"

"Just a way for them to exert their authority…"

"What a way to kick us down just because they had more people…"

"What can we do? We\'re just lowly families serving under them…"

"Don\'t speak too loud they might hear you…"

As we heard more and more shit being thrown at us, instead of being pissed off, I started laughing at the top of my lungs because if this was their way to retaliate against me, Sal, or even Mauro, they deserve all the shit that\'s coming for them.

One\'s name might be important to Sal and Mauro but I\'ve said it once and I\'ll say it again: There\'s nothing they can say to me that I haven\'t told myself in front of a mirror.

So, to properly send the message Sal was trying to say to them all this while, I decided to do a little less posturing and a lot more hitting with a closed fist. And to do just that, I ordered the maids and butlers to send the kids and minors off to a different room before I gave my group one simple order:

"No one passes through those doors."

But as soon as I said that, the first one to react was this dumbass, Augustin, who basically tried to sell me some snake oil and he was wearing a totally different expression compared to earlier. Furthermore, he had a group of people behind him ready to throw hands and he shouted at me like everything they\'d seen prior to this was just an act.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?! HUH—"

I would\'ve listened to his speech if he had given me a good deal but I dislodged his jaw with a right hook and jumped into this encirclement of rich-ass nobles who never worked a day in their life and wreaked havoc.

What I\'m doing right now was ramping everything to a 100 but I\'m sick and tired of people sending hints and whatnot just to get their point across.

If you want people to be afraid of you, just beat them to a pulp and start from there.

Five seconds had only passed but there was already a set of loose teeth on the floor plus two numbnuts, and this was just the moment Mauro started laughing his ass off and was so fucking amped to join in. Furthermore, two bitches just tried to go for Kaley but they were soon lying in a pool of their own piss when Kaley prevented me from committing bloody murder because I wouldn\'t care if it was a 90-year-old bimbo, if anyone tries anything with my wife, they\'re already perceived as a threat.

"Why\'d you have to do your thingy?! I got it, alright? WATCH OUT—"
