Chapter 701



After the second vampire raid, I think that no one is willing to stay at an inn so close to the gate. That’s why none of them are here now at night. Though if it’s just eating or drinking, this place is quite crowded because food and drink are cheaper here than in other places.

But maybe because of the attack, there were not many people drinking even in other location. Most of them prefer to just go to the inn closer to the middle area.

In this base, there are some expert level mages acting like the guards of this city. They are getting rid of troublemakers. So, even if everyone here is with the cult, that doesn’t mean that they can do anything they want.

...Of course if they have money and power, they can do anything.

That’s why everyone who doesn’t have enough money to stay at an inn chose to sleep at the street close to the gate. Because they have no choice. If they forcefully stay at an inn for free, they can easily kill the owner and the staffs of the inn. But they can’t avoid death from the guard who will kill them.

Even the cult has their rule and law. Though it’s better if there’s no cult at all.

.....

Me and the girl whom I haven’t heard her name of, entered the inn she previously worked at.

Since there were no customers, all the staffs are there in the lobby looking depressed. It was my fault that the vampires were raiding this base. Though I don’t care.

I checked the surrounding area and see that it’s safe. There’s no expert level mages nearby, and no wind magic to eavesdrop us. But I need to make sure that we won’t be heard so I used air magic after I entered the establishment.

“Airy, tell me if there’s a wind magic trying to break through my Air Barrier,” I said in whisper.

The spy we recruited can’t hear me since I whispered. And I don’t want anyone else to know that air spirit exist.

“Welcome! Do you want to stay overnight or just here for dine and drink?” the inn owner greeted us who are still covering our identities with cloaks.

I gestured to spy to not remove the cloak right away. She seems excited to tell the others about how they can be close to their freedom soon.

Well, it’s just freedom from being forced to work by the cult. Even if they leave this place, they still need to do other job if they want to live. It will be up to them how they live their lives. Or maybe me once I opened more branches for my clothing store. It’s so easy to get new recruits for me then. Even more since they’re all pleasing in the eye as well. I will be even richer then.

“Give us two rooms and give me the most delicious dish you have. Also, get all of the staffs to come here. I want to see everyone,” I said.

They must be thinking that I will be selecting one of them for me to sleep with later. Well, it might be more surprising for them than that.

The inn-owner then told her staffs to do as I say. They cooked something for me. And maybe because there are only the two of us here as customers, the dish is fancier than I thought for this place.

“When can we tell them?” the girl I brought asked.

“Later. There is someone coming this way,” I said.

I didn’t use Divine Vision to see far. But I can still see someone is approaching this place. I hope he’s just passing by.

When the dish is done, the man is right in front of this inn. I guess he’s going this way.

The man entered and looked at us the two customers here about to have dinner. Then he ignored us as he walked to one of the staffs.

“Come with me. I’ll pay you so you just need to obey me!”

Seems like he already has his sight set on someone.

The girl he’s targeting is shivering in fear. Is there something wrong with him?

“That man, there are many bad rumors about him. And they are not just rumors. He indeed forcefully took girls somewhere and did anything he wants with them until they died. That’s the truth. And we can’t do anything about it.”

The spy told me that as she’s also shivering.

Seeing how empty this place is, I guess he’s making his move knowing how easy it will be.

He gave the money to the inn owner and also the girl he targeted. Though I think it will be a while until he’s gone.

What a pain. I’ll get rid of him.

I approached the man and with Airy help, I cast sleeping gas on him. In less than a second, he fell asleep. And I caught him before he falls to the floor.

While everyone was still confused, I opened a portal to the vampire castle. Arin has returned back to Earth, but there are still vampires there. And I threw the man there so the vampires can drink his blood.

Everyone was shocked by how everything went by so fast.

I think I can no longer delay it anymore. I need to get it done sooner before any more people coming. They might have the same idea as that guy.

I removed the hood from my face and show them that this is the guy who was supposed to have returned to Earth.

“Don’t worry, I’m not an enemy. I think. Anyway, you can listen to her about everything while I have some dinner,” I said after I pointed at the girl I brought.

Everyone was even more shocked after looking that she was one of them. The woman who was returned to Earth along with four others.

“I’ve returned. With good news! Please don’t be so loud since this will be a secret.”

But she just shout ‘With good news!’ so loudly! What the hell?

Sigh, I’ll just eat while listening to them. And I need to make sure that no one can notice us.

“What?! You met the King?!”

“Yeah, I did!”

...They are being loud. If I didn’t cast Air Barrier, the whole neighborhood can listen to them.

I thought that they built community of girls with similar past in this base. Did they speak loudly when they gather? I don’t think it’s a hidden community. Some people must have notice it. I guess this will be much harder than we expected.

Well, my real mission is to destroy this place. Not to save people.

I don’t know if we will destroy this base next week after the scheduled date for the transportation or the week after. So I need to get enough rest. Even if I can move for weeks without sleeping, that is not a really good idea. Just closing my eyes without doing anything is better than not sleeping. So it’s great that we can use this inn as our base.

Our spy excitedly talked about everything that she had experienced in the last few days. Including how I work for the King of Tatrama.

“Wait, that’s wrong,” I interjected.

“Huh? You’re not working with the King?” the spy asked.

“We have mutual goal. The destruction of the cult. I’m not working for him. We are using each other. And not just him. I also used the King of Varadis, King of Arturo, and the Empress of Consenza. There’s also the President of Rygis, which is a small country. And in fact, my position is higher than them. don’t say it as if I’m working under them,” I said.

I didn’t say that mindlessly. I also checked their heart to see their reaction.

None of them were calm hearing what I said. And it shows on their expression as well.

I want to see if they are truly willing to leave the cult or not. I can’t just trust them blindly. So I need to see their reaction.

I can’t tell if someone telling lies to me. Even if I can see their heart, if they are expert at lying, I can’t tell at all. But if I can see the slightest hint of their loyalty to the cult, I will kill that person right away.

This is a secret conversation between me and Albert. Not even Victoria or Airy was there when we were talking.

“Albert, my real goal is the destruction of the cult. And I will destroy that base even if there are innocent people there.”

“Alright, I understand. I’m also sure that they will somehow get the information that someone becomes our spy like it or not. Just try to save as many as possible.”

“That means it’s fine if it’s zero. I’ll see what I can do. This is a mission where I have to do many things at once. Don’t expect the plan will go smoothly.”

That’s what Albert and I discussed. So that even if the one who became the spy die in the end, we already expected that outcome.
