”Follow me”
The clerk who had introduced himself as Ben led uywho looked like so his hood
Kung
”This rooic spell to prevent others froo ahead and ask hi you'd like”
”Just who is he?”
”Oh… you've never heard of them? They are a special kind of slave which are used in the business of buying and selling of information They are very useful because theirfor an exchange of information”
”And you can guarantee discretion?”
”Naturally, any infor a client is secure”
”Good, then I'd like to know everything you have on the Jir company and Miriam”
For a split second I saw Ben's expression turn livid, but he quickly regained his composure
”Did you get that Marion? Everything about Jir and Miriam”
The man naan chanting aup
”The one known as Miriam isactually Ardal Vermillion Tor, the second Prince of the ee in a neighboring country There is also some news that that the third Prince has made several attempts on his life
'Hm… so he was a Prince'
”Sir, unfortunately the inforhs your earlier payment”
Ben iven him
”Okay, we never met each other”
I tossed hiold and headed towards the exit
”Dear customer, please come back anytime Also, as a courtesy I shall show you the way to Prince Ardal's palace”
I couldn't help but chuckle at Ben's sudden change in attitude Like a truecustoet to the palace, I h the mountainous path
It took ht I circled around to the hill and drew a teleportation array behind a large rock I then spent the rest of the day checking out their security measures
”Lena, please highlight the Prince and any other notable figures”
”I'll display it on your cornea at once”
The prince was located on the highest terrasse, in the center of the palace It was the ured that Ichan and the rest of his creould likely be stationed near him
”I should start by cutting off the head of the snake”
Shuu!
My spider web allowed be to easily approach the palace, and the cohtened senses, ensured that I made my way around undetected Eventually I arrived at the entrance to the Prince's chambers
'Hic detection trap?'
Right near the doormy to easily sidestep the trap Had it not been for that, an alar in quite the mess
Shuu shhu
Silently entering the roo his arht the Prince unawares, he was unable to form any resistance
Hoisting him up, I whisked him away and made my escape I then returned to the rock on the hill and teleported back to our dungeon manor
”Johra!”
Viezda was there, kneeling down on the ground
”Why would you be there on your knees? It doesn't look very comfortable”
”I thought it would be a good posture to wait for you in, who is that ?”
”He is the one who is behind this entire mess”
Letting out an evil grin I carried hi back to the Prince's Palace
”I uys are bad news and have likely cohout their adventures It'd be best to take care of them for a better future”
The kidnapping went off without a hitch They were both fast asleep and had their defenses down, not to mention that I had reached such a level that very few mortals could resist
[Acquired ｟title: Kidnapper in the Dark｠]
'Hey, that title is a bit much…'
Having knocked both of the them up on each shoulder and bolted threw the forest, towards my teleportation circle
”These will be the last ones
After sending the two of theh, I crushed the rock into several pieces so as to not leave behind any evidence Anyways it had already gotten to a point that a greater part of our dungeonprisoners locked in spider webs
”Lena, I'll leave it to you to take care of those guys, just make sure they spit out any information they have first”
”Okay, I'll convert Riley into interrogator mode and report to you when it's done”
”Good”
Viezda asked me with curious face
”So, is it all over now?”
I had been going back and forth so inal purpose
”Not yet, I still have s left to take care of”
She shooed head, knowing me she understand that it wouldn't remain a small matter
”Then I'll see you next time”
”Yes Johra”
Using the teleportation array I reappeared in the ruins of the Count's mansion
”Oh right, I wasn't supposed to show dom”
”Johra, did you want ram to hide your appearance”
”Is that even possible?”
”Yes I can make your face appear different, or at the very least incredibly hard to recognize”
”Good, with a different appearance it should all go smoother”
”Then when you enter the city I'll project it”
”Okay, we still have soet some sleep”
I took a short nap, lying down in the ashes of the Count'stowards Gartmar
Life was bloohts were very dark, occupied with the ood friend the Count had suffered
”In the future I should keep my interactions with others down to a minimum”
Having come to the decision, I made my way to Darryl's bakery, and only had Lena power off the hologram once I was inside
”Long time no see!”
”Oh! Johra, how are you doing?”
We gave each other a big hug All the while a little girl stood silently behind hi his sleeve
”Come here Ian, say hello to Johra”
”I…an?”
”hello , I am Ian”
”She suffered from a traumatic experience, that's why she doesn't speak very fluently”
”No…no problem…”
I was truly shocked, stuttered and was unable to respond properly So h my mind
”If that's Ian, ill happen later on?”
'This is the worst possible case By influencing Ian's future I could very well be putting et out of this?'
”Darryl let's step outside for a second”
Pulling him to the side I spoke to him in a hushed tone
”I have some very important matters to take care of, so I don't think I'll be able to otten a pretty decent reward for ive Ian a better life, away form this city”
I hand hih of a fortune to ensure that he wouldn't need to work another day in his life
”No need Johra, it seems like the situation you were in hasn't been resolved yet, and we can live just fine the two of us without the money Take care of yourself first”
”I shookmy way, and I had to distance myself from Ian's child version
”I have plenty more, please accept this small amount Darryl”
Seeing my resolute expression, he finally caved and accepted the pouch
