Chapter 1502 Is This Necessary


    However, the Japanese royal family was no longer in power as they were just the symbolic


    figurehead of the country. Under the Japanese constitution, they had no power to mobilize the


    Japanese military at all.


    Emperor Chongmei shook his head. "It''s just a small matter. Is it necessary to alert the military and


    make a big issue out of this?"


    "If you alert them, you''re telling the whole world that our royal prince bent his knees to a foreigner


    and got castrated. Do you think this sounds nice? What about our reputation?”


    "Anyway, we have our imperial guards, and also martial arts masters in service like Master


    Watanabe and his group of samurais. Just them are enough to handle Nathan Cross discreetly, and


    there''s no need to humiliate ourselves by utilizing the military."


    All of them replied in unison, "Understood, Your Highness!”


    Emperor Chongmei asked again, "Have you found out Nathan Cross'' background?"


    One of his subordinates replied, "Your Highness, we''ve investigated him. Nathan Cross seems to be


    a toon leader serving in the North Army of the neighboring nation. However, he''s famed for his


    combat skills in the army. His wife is Penny Smith, the chairman of Cross Pharmaceuticals."


    Emperor Chongmei replied in surprise, "You mean his wife is the boss of the Cross Group that has


    the one and only liver cancer vine in the world?"


    "Yes, she''s the one. Both Nathan Cross and Penny Smith are here in our country to attend the


    International Pharmaceutics Economy Summit."


    Emperor Chongmei narrowed his eyes. "For so many years, our country''s scientists have been


    putting in so much effort toe out with the liver cancer vine, but none of them had any


    significant progress. And here a foreigner managed to manufacture the liver cancer vine before


    us. This is a very valuable product for them."


    Of course it was valuable. Any medicine that could cure cancer was like a gold mine of wealth that


    would bring in countless profits for thepany that manufactured it.


    A greedy glint shed across Emperor Chongmei''s eyes. "By right, the crimemitted by Nathan


    and his wife towards my son and Master Watanabe''s apprentice is a death offence."


    "But if they agree to offer 51 % of Cross Group''s shares to the Imperial House of Japan as their


    compensation, I can pardon them from their death offence and work together with them to earn


    more money."


    The royals'' eyes lit up at the wicked suggestion.


    Emperor Chongmei instructed his people smugly, "Tell Nathan and his wife that I''ll be hosting a


    banquet tomorrow and I would like to invite them over."


    "Yes, Your Highness!"


    In the living room of the presidential suite of Hotel Kyoto, Nathan and Penny were rxing on the


    sofa while Colin and Frida were standing behind them when a man in a tuxedo entered.


    The man introduced himself as the high steward of the Imperial House of Japan by the name of


    Tanaka. He was eyeing Nathan with a haughty smile on his face. "His Royal Highness, the Emperor


    Chongmei of Japan would like to invite Mr. and Mrs. Cross to a royal banquet tomorrow evening."


    Nathan replied icily, "I''m not interested."


    Tanaka merely smiled. "During the banquet, we will be auctioning a few important artefacts and


    antiquities of your nation. These artefacts we''re about to auction are all treasures that your nation


    has sought to retrieve back. I am guessing that Mr. Cross would be interested to have a look at


    them."


    During the times of war, many artefacts of Nathan''s nation were lost as they had fallen into the


    hands of foreign nations.


    But then his nation had reborn from the ashes, and now stood proud and mighty at the top of the


    world.


    Many wealthy people had tried to buy back those artefacts that were lost overseas. However, these


    foreigners simply refused to sell them.


    One of the ces that contained the most artefacts was the Japanese Royal Pce.


    Nathan scrunched his brows as he contemted meeting the Japanese Emperor.


    Tanaka added with a smile, "Mr. Cross, His Royal Highness said that you''re his guest, and that


    anything could be solved as long as you attend the banquet."


    "However, if you don''t, you won''t be able to get out of Japan either. Please consider our invitation


    and make the right choice."


    With that, the high steward bid farewell and left.

    The moment Tanaka left, Penny turned to her husband worriedly. "Hubby, now even the Emperor of


    Japan is trying to trouble us. Should we attend the banquet tomorrow?"


    Nathan smiled in disdain. "I don''t care about this emperor at all and I didn''t want to go at first. But


    now that they are trying to auction our nation''s treasures and artefacts, I have decided to go and


    take them back. This trip to Japan will be a fruitful one this time."
