Chapter 126: Info Exchange (1/2)

When Sam reached the Marquis mansion, an attendant was already waiting for him at the entrance who guided him to the meeting room.

Marquis is the only person sitting in the room with a gloomy expression.

Sam entered the room and took a seat up on marquis' gesture.

”Do you know what you did?

Just because you are capable, that doesn't mean you can do things as you like. Do you know what killing a Count means?

When the news spreads, the other Counts will all become restless.”

Sam didn't bother to reply and just looked at the Marquis ranting on him with a expressionless face.

”I don't know what you think of it. But the fact is as simple as you heard it to be. A person with the support of his family kidnapped a person under my wing, so I went there to take her back. That's it. That doesn't have anything to do with his noble title.

If the other Counts are restless and afraid of it, then I have only one thing to say. Don't mess with me.��� Sam opened his mouth only after the Marquis calmed down a little.

Sam placed the Katana on the table, then only Marquis looked at the sword closely. Even though, it was sheathed he can still feel the Bloody aura.

Sam didn't seem to care about it and took out a bunch of scrolls and placed them on the table.

”These are the reports of the mission. There are more than eight months till the mission is over.

I have two requests. First one, don't release the info about our missions and seal it as much as you can. At least, don't let any of the officials and nobility know about it.

The second one, Eliminate Jasmine in this round.”

When Sam said his first condition the marquis was already surprised and confused, but when he heard the second condition, he was shocked.

Why would someone eliminate their own teammate and particularly after Sam went through the trouble of creating a massacre just to save her.

”Why?”

Sam chuckled at Marquis' question, this only made him believe that the other party is completely oblivious to the Black water and the situation of the under ground forces.

”For the first one, you will understand once you see the reports, as for the second one, i don't have much reasons, but I can exchange something in return.”

Marquis was clearly surprised that Sam would exchange something with him.

”What are going to exchange then?”

”20 million spirit stones.”

Marquis took a deep breath when he heard the number. He didn't expect that Sam would outright give him a number, this isn't even an exchange, rather it is more of a bribe. He knew that Sam is rich, but he didn't think that he can give away that much.

Of course, the marquis didn't take a look at the reports, otherwise he would understand that the twenty million is just the loot from one Count city.

”I don't need that. I want you to owe me a favour.” This time it was Sam's time to think. But he nodded his head anyway.

”Sure.”

After that, Sam took his sword and left.

All the guards and officials who faced him were all looking at the sword. Not because, they heard the news, but because they are surprised by the fierce aura. The Blood scent can even be felt in the air.

Sam went back to his mansion.

For the next few days, he didn't do anything at all, he is waiting for Marquis' call.

He is very sure that marquis will call him, because, Sam left something crucial out of the report and that is the info about the Black water organisation.

From, what he understood about the marquis, he is sure that the other party is a responsible person and if he is also a clever one, he could recognize that there is a gap in the info Sam provided.

Just as he predicted, the personal attendant of the Marquis came to the mansion after five days.

That day, in the same meeting room.

”What is it with all these underground forces, why are all of them similar in operating and has similar businesses? And there are led by great mages, what is it with this report?”

Marquis is clearly confused, but he was also shocked when he read the report. He knew that there are a lot of underground forces, but he didn't expect that there is this much of involvement and they have such great power in a single city.

Sam only smiled and said.

”You don't know a lot of things, Sir Marquis, it is not like you have been living at the bottom of the society to learn this, the involvement of these forces is much more than you think and the details in the report are only tip of the iceberg.”

”What do you mean by saying this is a tip of the iceberg?” marquis was stunned.

Even if having a force as strong as the whole city guard as tip of the iceberg, then what is the whole network of this organisation. He is suddenly afraid.

”I mean exactly what is said, I can give you information but that is not the part of my job, so I am sorry.” He finished his piece and was about leave, when the Marquis stood up immediately.

”What do you want?” He immediately asked. He knows better than anyone that Sam is not a person who will just divulge info under pressure and in fact he is in a situation where he cannot even pressure him.

”An equivalent exchange and a simple condition.” Sam replied as he sat back.
