Chapter 845 Cap 843: Family Business
Pov of a Thief:
I walk through the streets past some people clearly from noble families, many of them come to visit this city to have fun, I choose those who don’t seem to be accompanied by competent guards and steal a few things along the way, usually some jewelry, magical protection items or storage, these more normal things just for practice.
When I arrive at a hotel, I go straight to the floor I wanted and look for the right door that has the dagger symbol, then I use my key to enter, and as soon as I turn the key in the lock the magic is activated opening a door teleport directly to the base.
Our base has no known entrance or exit, if only my father would know, the keys that the organization’s executives have are the only way in and out.
“You’re late.” (Brother)
I look at the idiot who was throwing knives at a target on the wall, as usual, he is an impatient man.
“Shut up, as far as I know, nothing has been scheduled for any specific time.” (I)
“(Look at those bloodstains on his clothes.)”
“(As usual, I wonder how many slaves were mistreated by him today just for fun.)” (I)
“You’re lucky dad always protects you, not many dare to talk to me like that.” (Brother)
“That’s because they’re afraid of their father and not you.” (I)
“(An idiot who only causes trouble, he mistreats his own merchandise without realizing that this decreases the value.)” (I)
“I won’t waste my time arguing with you, let’s go.” (Brother)
He and I walked side by side through the underground floors to Father’s meeting room.
“(Maybe I should visit the facility later, see if there’s anything that might be useful.)”
“(I was lucky that no one noticed me in the last robbery, maybe I should look for a stronger poison.)” (I)
While walking through the corridors on the top floor I can see the alchemy tanks full of drugs or poisons, I also passed by the information gathering places, and I can hear screams coming from there.
Knock Knock
“Come in.” (Dad)
I walk in and notice Dad is covered in sweat, I look at the door at the side of the room half open, and I can see the women lying on the floor, at least they’re still alive, it saves me having to find more.
“I’ll be direct, I know about the new shipment of son slaves.” (Dad)
I look to the side and can see the sweat running down the asshole’s face.
“(He tried to do something hidden business again.)” (I)
“It’s just some female Beastmen.” (Brother)
“I don’t care about the merchandise, the important thing was who you chose to do business with.” (Dad)
“Those from the Red Storm are idiots who only have strength and no intelligence, I’ve heard rumors that they’ve been heavily investigated for days, plus they always do the same thing, attack a village stealing everything and selling the survivors.” (Dad)
“In other words, could they be being followed?” (I)
“Shut up, this matter is between our Father and me, don’t try to meddle in my business.” (Brother)
“I called her because of her business, I want her to continue with the agreement, her sister is right about them, they are a risk to us if they are captured, so let’s eliminate them.” (Dad)
“I can do it without her help, I have enough combat slaves to finish them off.” (Brother)
“This must be silent, I don’t want the government to notice what we are doing.” (Dad)
“I’ll need to get ready.” (I)
“Take what you want from the base, you know where everything is, I’ll take care of their leader, we’re equal in strength, but I think you can handle this, daughter.” (Dad)
“I can, but what’s in it for me?” (I)
“You can take any 5 slaves you want from your brother.” (Dad)
“(5 is too little, why not take advantage of this situation more.)”
“(Yes, let’s enjoy ourselves a little.)” (I)
I look at my brother, his face full of anger that I’m getting into his business plus he’s suffering all the losses, it brings a smile to my face.
“He has hundreds of illegal slaves, I want to take 20, I’m thinking of expanding my operations and for that, I need a workforce capable of betraying me.” (I)
“You wretched bitch…” (Brother)
“You’ll settle for 15 slaves and not even 1 more.” (Dad)
“OK.” (I)
With that, we spent a few hours preparing for our attack, going over the information on the number of enemies, the strength of the enemies, and the location where the closing of the deal would take place.
After that, I went to get some things while my dad and brother were going ahead, before I start doing my part I feel a chill.
————
1 hour later.
I suddenly realize that I am entering the shed where the plan will take place, the place where my brother will meet the Red Storm group.
“How did I get here? When did I get here?” (I)
“(I remember seeing my Father and Brother leave earlier to position the others.)” (I)
“(I also remember preparing the poison and the trap.)”
“(Trap? What was the Trap again?)” (I)
“(How could I forget, I’m holding her.)”
“That’s right, what’s happening to me today?” (I)
I look down at my hand, I’m holding a suitcase with spatial expansion magic.
So I enter the shed where I find my Father and Brother talking, I go to them and hand the suitcase to my brother while I distribute a potion to everyone.
“Corpse Worm Poison, very concentrated, odorless, colorless and quick to act.” (I)
“Unfortunately it doesn’t spread much, so make sure their leader opens it, even if he has poison resistance, this one doesn’t just affect the body, but contaminates people’s mana in miasma.” (I)
“I don’t remember having this poison, would it be from your secret stash?” (Dad)
“A woman needs to be prepared.” (I)
“These potions will help protect you from the poison.” (I)
“Their leader wouldn’t just die from this, but it will help me take care of him quickly.” (Dad) π·πΉπΈπΏπ.πΈβ΄πΆ
I look at my brother’s employees, they are all empty-eyed slaves, but at least they are strong, let’s see how many he will lose with this.
