The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker



Chapter 201: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 4

The one who took Kayn's group to the Daze Village was still Randy. But this time, the latter is going to be part of the operation instead of just waiting at the sideline.

They went through the underground passage and straight to the warehouse-looking entrance of the White Boots Auction House.

The same manager and five receptionists that greeted them the last time welcomed them at the entrance. But this time, because Kayn and the others were no longer wearing a disguise, the six people acted very respectfully.

Contrary to the others though, Kayn still wears a disguise, but this time it's different since Chief Kylo probably recognizes already his previous disguise.

"Greetings, Chairman Jericho," The manager bowed his head ninety degrees along with the five receptionists behind him.

"How's the situation with this branch after that assassination attempt?" Jericho pretended to ask in concern.

"It's not looking good. The majority of our VIP clients expressed their dissatisfaction after nearly dying at the hands of Chief Kylo and the group of assassins,"

"How did our Wing Boots Auction House respond?"

"Master Khalid made their purchase half the price and those that didn't buy any were given coupons that allows them to buy an item in the next auction for half the price,"

"How about those people from the first floor? Were there any of them affected?"

"All of them were affected. Master Khalid simply gave them money to satisfy their so-called emotional and mental damages,"

Jericho nodded in satisfaction. Master Khalid is the person he put in charge of managing this branch of Wing Boots Auction House in the Daze Village. He is one capable merchant that's why he specifically choose him.

"Where is he right now?"

"He is busy taking care of the damages that's why he sent me here," The manager could only look at Chairman Jericho awkwardly. Master Khalid was supposed to be the one to welcome Chairman Jericho here, not him, who is just a lowly manager.

"Tell your men to carry our stuff as you led us to our quarters,"

"Alright!"

ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm The manager immediately ordered his men to bring all the baggage that Kayn's group brought with them as he then led them through the mana elevator to get to the penthouse of the Wing Boots Auction House.

In every Wing Boots Auction House, the penthouse would always be left empty in case Jericho unexpectedly comes to visit them.

Kayn's group reached the penthouse and after making the manager leave, they quickly started preparing to gather information around the Daze Village about the Assembly of Freedom.

Instead of leaving using the mana elevator that they'd used to get up, Jericho led them to a secret tunnel that leads to another mana elevator that only members of the Herald Guild and the higher-ups of the Wing Boots Auction House knows about.

The exit to this mana elevator was a restaurant just right beside the Wing Boots Auction House. All personnel of this restaurant are members of the Herald Guild who disguise themselves as staff from this restaurant.

"Don't be surprised, every establishment in the one-kilometer vicinity of the Wing Boots Auction House are our property," Jericho explains as he led everyone to the back entrance of the restaurant. "We use them for strategic operations like what we are doing now,"ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Here," Jericho gave everyone one gold emblem each with the logo of a pair of wing boots. "We are going to separate from here to gather information. Use this emblem if you want to access the resources of the Herald Guild or the Wing Boots Auction House. Just show them this and they will know what they have to do,"

Kayn and the others nodded their heads before going in separate ways.

The others picked their location based on the compass, and Kayn picked south.

He doesn't know what the others' reason for picking their location, perhaps it is random, but for him, he choose the south because he saw from the penthouse window that the place seems to be the red district of the Daze Village.

Where else would be the best place to start searching for information about the Assembly of Freedom other than the black area, right?

Kayn soon reached the red district. It was a place that was surrounded by taverns, brothels, bars, bathhouses, casinos, and other illegal-related establishments.

The first place on Kayn's list to visit was the tavern, as it is the place where people in this line of work gather together to recruit people, talk about their job, and possibly also accept commissions from the bartender.

As soon as Kayn walked inside a tavern, everyone's eyes instantly got turned in his direction. He was already used to this, so he casually walks to the counter to order a drink.

His action just now shows that he is someone with experience in this kind of matter. He might have entered this place with an unfamiliar face, but nobody would think now of treating him as easy prey.

"What drink do you want?" A lady bartender asked the moment Kayn sat on his chair.

"Devil's Shot,"

"Coming right up,"

Instead of brewing a drink, the bartender took out a bunch of documents under the desk and gave them to Kayn.

Devil's Shot is a codename for accepting missions in this kind of establishment. It is the opposite of asking for an angel's shot, which means they are asking for help. Though in some establishments they recognize the Devil's Shot as an actual drink that combines one part sambuca, one part vodka, and three splashes of tabasco sauce. It is through this that one can know whether they are in the right place or not.

"Give me a glass of Tonic Extraction,"

"About what?" The bartender grabbed a glass and a cloth as she pretended to clean it.

Tonic Extraction is another codename that means give me information.

"Assembly of Freedom,"

Hearing the name, the bartender's eyes immediately turned sharp as she started looking around from left and right.

"Follow me to the backroom,"

This means that she is going to lead him to someone who knows about it.
