Chapter 867 Codname: MamaPimp

Time- 09:22

Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild Association Mall, Warehouse no.234

”Number Nine & Ten, you guys help Miss Agatha with her mission,” With the command of the guard captain, two figures covered in black cloaks vanished without even making a noise. Feeling all the eyes in the warehouse on him, Guard Captain coughed in embarrassment and added, “We are numbered based on our seniority. Though Nine & Ten are new and have a little experience they are strong.” 

After explaining to everyone in the warehouse not to underestimate the strength of guard numbers Nine and Ten, the Guard captain yelled, “Guards, back to your posts.” With his command, the remaining 8 guards and Asong’s aide vanished into thin air.

After the guards left Asong gave Anna and Ann duo a gentle smile to which Anna responded saying, “I am not going to thank you since I am still not clear about your motive.” 

”What else motive could I have? All I am trying to do is help my bratty niece and protect the future card creation prodigy.” Asong replied humbly. 

Susan did not know Asong very well but depending on what she saw so far, she felt Asong’s thoughts were very deep but she did not care, all that mattered to her was Asong came forward to help her young boss, “Madam Asong, thank you, Wyatt will be very grateful when he hears that you lent two of your personal guards for his protection.” 

”Miss Susan, don’t sweat the small stuff. I too am a part of Wyatt’s family…” Asong playfully dragged her word as she glanced at Anna and added, “of course, as a client.” 

”Big sis, I appreciate your help but don’t play with fire, Wyatt is her reverse scale. I don’t think I can hold her back if she erupts,” Ann warned Asong from trying to provoke Anna. Ann knew Asong maybe be interested in her young love but that was as far as it went as Asong’s first and last priorities were the people and Asong had no room for relationships. So her words just now were purely only to provoke Anna who did not appreciate her help and instead was suspicious about it. 

”Fine, these silly arguments don’t matter. With Wyatt’s talent, he is bound to find his future in the central capital. Especially with the central government as its appreciation of talent is known throughout the five regions.” This was Asong’s way of saying to Anna, that, no matter what, the prodigy card creationist would be won by the government and not the southern region. 

”…” To Asong’s provocation, Anna just scoffed in response, as she was pretty confident in the capabilities of her love and believed he did not need to join a faction. Even if he wanted to join a faction he will join the southern royal family faction over all other factions. 

”Tsk” Seeing that her words did not get the desired response from Anna, Asong clicked her tongue in annoyance. Seeing this Ann remembered why Anna and Asong did not keep in touch despite their history at the university. 

Between Anna and Asong’s banter, Cole excused himself from the warehouse and retired to the southern watch temporary base in the city. But before returning to the warehouse Cole made a quick stop in a secluded area outside the city and sent a grimoire message, 

[To: Unknown Contact

 Codename: MamaPimp Reporting 

 Subject: Regarding priority task ‘S.O.B’

 Request: Contact the Matron.]

Soon Cole received a reply,

[You have received a new message from Unknown Contact. 

Read/Reject/Discard/Ignore/Mark as Read/Delete]

”Read,” Cole muttered 

[To: Codename MamaPimp

 Your request will be processed within 2 min. This conversation will soon be deleted.]

As soon as Cole read the message, the string of private conversations were deleted without any trace, while Cole patiently waited until his grimoire notified him of an incoming call, 

[Unknow contact calling… Answer/Reject/Ignore/Reply]

”Codename MamaPimp reporting,” Cole answered the call immediately. 

”Codename MamaPimp, it has been a while since you called, I almost thought you were planning to defect,” Sansa went through her memories and soon retrieved a complete biodata on codename MamaPimp and couldn’t help but laugh hearing the codename, in her defense she gave Cole the codename MamaPimp because, when asked, it was Cole who described himself as the black merchant who would sell his mother for the right price. 

”Your slave wouldn’t dare your highness, I would rather die than betray the Matron,” Cole answered immediately, as he knew what awaited him if Matron had the slightest doubt that he was going to defect. Death would be considered a boon in face of the torture Sansa’s origin card was capable of. 

”Codename MamaPimp, you are not new to the organization, I don’t think I have to remind you that even the thought of suicide is considered betrayal in our organization,” Hearing Cole’s answer Sansa’s voice turned sharp and after a pause, she answered it, “I am adding your name to the review list for the memory reconstruction program. Since it is your first offense, I will stop with this.” 

”Your highness, this slave thanks you for your generosity.” Hearing Sansa’s verdict Cole’s face turned pale but he did not dare to voice out his dissatisfaction but be happy that Sansa did not directly add his name to the memory reconstruction program but to the review list as Cole was confident that he could successfully pass the review test and avoid getting his name added to the memory reconstruction program. 

Cole dreaded the memory reconstruction program more than death because he knew that in case one of the members of the organization showed suicidal behavior their memories will be edited such that the said member no longer feels suicidal and depressed but instead will start to enjoy life circumstances that previously drove him to consider embracing death to escape the clutches of the Matron. And in extreme cases instead of the edition of memories, total reconstruction of the memories will be considered depending on the value of the member as the pawn of the Matron.
