After traveling through time, I want to become a magical omnipotent saint
Chapter 66: The Flower of Sin
"Do the other members of Flower of Sin have any work? It seems that everyone is idle."
Isabella asked jokingly.
"We, the Flower of Sin, don't have that much to do," Higanbana continued smoking. "Most of our work involves taking on black jobs, and there aren't many fights or killings. For example, we collect protection fees in the black market, management fees in the red-light district, which are used to help them manage the city guards' searches, and some reselling business. We only do money-making work. Just being a member of the Flower of Sin in Leonton City has a daily expense of 150 silver coins."
Isabella understood immediately, and finally realized that this Flower of Sin was actually doing the work of the underworld, or to put it nicely, it was doing a black money business.
"Reselling business?" Isabella asked, "You sold all the elite monsters' heads and horns I got last time to Count Jialai, right?"
"Huh? How do you know?"
Higanbana was a little surprised, and she didn't know that Higgindale knew about this.
"That's right! You can freely enter and leave the warehouse of the city guards. I can't think of any reason other than knowing Count Jialai. I want to know how many pieces they bought? What are they doing with them?"
"Girl, why are you asking so many questions?" Higanbana said unhappily. "I feel I lost out if I raised the price a little bit and sold it to him. I only made a small profit from the difference. As for what he wants to do, it's none of my business. The Flower of Sin can move freely in Leonton because we gave him a lot of money, which means we tacitly agreed to let the Flower of Sin take over the entire city's black area."
"Ah, I didn't expect you guys to be so boring," Isabella sighed, "You only do these jobs. No wonder you agreed to my weird conditions without hesitation."
"You've asked me so many questions, it's my turn to ask you a question."
Higanbana exhaled a puff of thick smoke, and the small office was filled with smoke. Isabella felt as if there was no fresh air to breathe.
Erwin's face looked grim. He didn't say anything. I don't know if he was afraid to speak or he hated the smell of smoke here, so he didn't say anything.
"Why are you being hunted by the All-Seeing Eye?"
Isabella simply talked about her involvement in the investigation of the Magic Group and the presence of a traitor in the Almighty Eye.
Looking at Higanbana's indifferent expression, it was obvious that he was asking the question even though he knew the answer.
"Where do you get all those elite monsters?"
"In the western part of Oran Highlands, in an underground cave, in the fourth dungeon. It's not easy for ordinary people to get out, and I'm the only one who can provide these materials stably."
Isabella talked about her advantages, at least to find a reason why she didn't go to the Flower of Sin often.
The maid came and said that she wanted to make a new pattern for the new flower group, and the pattern plate would be carved tomorrow...
"Why are you moving next door to Bai Lina's house? Evan is very poor and in urgent need of money. Do you have any other business you can introduce in this short period of time?"
Isabella now wanted to know whether the Flower of Sin was doing as she said, collecting money everywhere, collecting some evidence, and looking for an opportunity to hand the evidence over to other organizations in the empire, so that the empire could take over and get rid of the members of the Flower of Sin organization in this city.
"Move there in three days. If you want to make quick money, I know a good place. Erwin is still too young and small. It doesn't matter if he goes there. He will get beaten anyway!"
At the end, Higanbana kept the topic in suspense, looking at Erwin with a charming gaze and revealing a faint mysterious smile.
Isabella's eyes moved back and forth, taking in the silence between the two.
"Where is that...place? What kind of work do you do?"
Erwin asked in a slightly nervous tone. Although he was trying to remain calm, his voice and tone were trembling, and his feet and hands and feet were still shaking uncontrollably.
This kind of reaction is either fear or timidity and nervousness that only occurs when talking face to face to someone of high status and great power.
"That place," Higanbana put down her pipe and stuffed it with tobacco. "About ten miles northeast of Leonton City, there is a small town called Black Valley Tribe. It's inhabited by bandits, the Magicians, the Flowers of Sin, and other idle people. You can fight with the Magicians or the bandits in a black boxing match. Winning a match will earn you dozens to hundreds of silver coins. Magic cannot be used in the match. It's all a physical fight. But you're too young, and you look good and have a good body. You can play with the bad ladies for a night and get a dozen or twenty silver coins."
After hearing the last word, Erwin's face flushed, but he still stared at the red spider lily.
"I'd rather practice boxing. I've trained for two years..."
Isabella continued to chat for a while, sleepiness already beginning to put pressure on her eyelids.
"…We should go back. From now on, when I come to the Flower of Sin Organization, I will appear directly in the basement corridor. Is that okay with you?"
"Don't be so polite between you and me. I admire you very much. You can be casual."
There was no more topic to talk about, Isabella asked Alvin before opening the space gap.
"Do you want to go back to the B&B or stay here?"
Isabella finished her words, moving her eyes left and right to look at Erwin, deliberately making him choose to stay in this place.
Erwin also instantly understood what the Saint meant, which was to let him stay in the Flower of Sin and learn more about their situation.
Erwin scratched his head and stammered, "I...I think I should stay here. It's still very convenient here."
Higanbana had no objection and asked the maid to take the two of them to choose an empty room.
The empty rooms were tidy. One room had partitions, a large bed, and chairs. The room was very high, with a gap at the top, which was obviously a hidden window that allowed you to see the ground.
There is also carpet on the floor of the room, but this is not an ordinary carpet. It is more like the skin cut from a large animal.
"Move all your luggage from the B&B here tomorrow morning, and remember to eat more meat when you eat. I'll come find you here tomorrow night."
Isabella opened the space gap and returned to her room.
At least there were some gains from this conversation. I got a general understanding of how the Flower of Sin organization operates and the relationship between the Flower of Sin organization and the outside world.
The biggest headache right now is that damn absolute contract scroll. I don’t know what strange things will happen when the effect of this special scroll is activated.
At least I remember that it was mentioned in the book that the goddess of the contract would punish them to death. This kind of fable sounds like it could scare children...
After a simple tidying up, Isabella fell asleep peacefully.
Erwin couldn't sleep, and could vaguely smell a light floral scent in the air.
Erwin, who seemed a little tired just now, became energetic for some reason when he smelled the fragrance of the flower.
I have checked and there is nothing in this room that emits any scent.
There was a knock on the door, and Erwin found it strange. Who could it be at this late hour?
When I opened the door, I found that it was a lady with delicate features and fair skin, who was probably in her early twenties.
"So the reason why Lady Higanbana is so happy today is because you joined our organization? Allow me to introduce myself. I am Tuberose No. 42. Little brother, what is your relationship with the mysterious elf lady just now?"
As he spoke, Tuberose No. 42 walked into Erwin's room little by little.
Erwin said: "She is Higgindale, and I am a defector like her. You can call me Erwin..."
At the end of his words, Erwin's face almost hit her body. Even when the lady in front of him touched his face for no apparent reason, he did not avoid it at all.
"So she is Higgindale... I didn't expect that she would come by herself. Then I have been busy for nothing these days! Since you are in cahoots with her, I shouldn't work in vain. In order to make up for my losses these days, I will sleep with you for one night, and it will be your compensation! How do you think?"
"you……"
Erwin pushed her white hand away and took a few steps back.
"I don't know what you're talking about. This room has been assigned to me! You are not allowed to come into my room!"
After finishing speaking, Erwin felt confused for a while, and then he lost consciousness...
Tuberose No. 42 locked the door and helped him to the bed.
She propped her face up and looked at him.
"Oh! It's been a long time since I met such a cute little cutie!"
"Where on earth did Higgindale find this treasure? He's actually a mid-level magician of twelve or thirteen years old... Oh! It's not good to grow up too fast!"
Tuberose 42 let out a strange laugh and covered himself with the quilt...
At dawn, Tuberose No. 42 quietly enjoyed the experience before leaving.
Before leaving, he left a monologue: "It would be great if you were mine..."
The next morning.
Erwin opened his eyes dazedly and found that his body had become very difficult to control. After a long while, he could barely move...
I still remember that I had to go to the B&B to move things this morning...
After lifting the quilt, I smelled a strange floral scent...
Only then did I remember that when I opened the door of my room last night, I met a lady who called herself Tuberose, and then I didn’t remember anything!
Erwin sat on the edge of the bed and suddenly discovered that his source of magic power had dropped from the intermediate second level to the intermediate level.
I thought it was a headache, so I sat by the bed, stunned for a long time...
Hallucination?
Not an illusion!
Erwin suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his body, and had no idea what happened last night.
The source of mana was downgraded without my noticing, and I couldn't help but shed tears.
It must be her doing!
At this moment, Erwin was heartbroken and swore in his heart that he must find an opportunity to destroy the flower of sin.
