Pries and his team worked swiftly; even though the search was thorough, it didn’t actually take much ti.
They spent less than twenty minutes to comb through every corner of the entire estate.
Even Wendy’s private room wasn’t spared as Pries sent a female subordinate in to search.
"Lady Wendy, the other areas are temporarily safe now, you can rest assured," Pries said after listening to his subordinates’ reports.
"Thank you, you all have worked hard," Wendy smiled.
She turned to Lorna and instructed, "Lorna, give the gentlen so reward for their hard work."
Lorna quickly took out a Talisman Stone and transferred three hundred Magic Stones to each person.
Pries didn’t stop her; it had beco routine and was considered a small perk for the subordinates.
"Herag, would you like to join us in capturing Doron? It could count as your participation in the task," Pries suggested.
Herag is a formal mber of Serlandir and is eligible to participate in these Serlandir tasks.
Ad hoc task involvent is quite common since Serlandir’s mbers are spread all over.
In various ergencies, there’s often no ti to dispatch personnel from elsewhere, so additional mbers are frequently recruited temporarily from nearby.
Doron is just an ordinary businessman, and according to the records, his ability is only that of a Third Class Wizard Apprentice.
With the strength of Pries and his team, capturing him is more than enough, completely unnecessary for Herag to assist.
The suggestion from Pries was actually giving Herag an opportunity to tag along and earn so Contribution Points.
It wasn’t necessarily because Pries was particularly fond of Herag; such phenona were commonplace within Serlandir.
Contribution Points were sothing people never found excessive, and the chance to gain so wasn’t to be missed, and it also maintained good relations.
Herag smiled, "Of course I can; I haven’t officially participated in any organizational tasks yet."
"Alright, then let’s set off and see what other secrets Doron has," Pries said with a cheerful smile, walking ahead.
Pries didn’t rush to capture Doron because he was already in Silver Moon City. The mont they obtained the information, they had already arranged for soone to watch him.
In Silver Moon City, even if Doron grew wings, he couldn’t escape; everything was under Pries’ control.
As Herag was about to leave, Wendy stood up and stopped him: "Mr. Herag, thank you for saving my life. Such a great favor, I haven’t figured out how to repay it yet. Let’s first add each other as Talisman Stone friends."
Previously, Herag had only added Lorna, the housekeeper, as a Talisman Stone friend and not Wendy.
Soone of her wealth and power wouldn’t just add anyone.
Herag didn’t refuse since she was a wealthy lady, possibly allowing him to benefit sohow, so he and Wendy added each other as Talisman Stone friends.
Outside number seventy-five on Heather Street, two carriages were parked. Pries had brought along five subordinates, highlighting the importance of this incident.
Both carriages bore the emblem of the Serlandir organization, signifying their noble status.
Herag shared a carriage with Pries, and they began their journey toward the location of the rchant, Doron.
...
The Avila Restaurant is the most famous in Silver Moon City, where the als are all prepared with the highest quality ingredients.
Even the chefs are Level 1 Official Wizards, who approach cooking with the sa seriousness as alchemy.
The taste here is naturally beyond words and is definitely an enjoynt.
But coming here is more a symbol of identity and status.
Because dining here is settled with Magic Stones, with one Magic Stone equating to one hundred to two hundred Gold Coins.
Needless to say, ordinary people, even Wizards, rarely indulge in dining here.
Spending hundreds of Magic Stones on a al is nothing unusual, and most Wizards can’t afford such luxuries.
With resources being scarce and valuable, who would choose to spend Magic Stones on a al here?
Only those exceptionally wealthy and influential could do such a thing.
Therefore, the people who co here are either wealthy or noble, and rely walking into the Avila Restaurant attracts the attention of passersby, satisfying many people’s vanity.
At the mont, Doron was sitting at a table near the window, across from a ticulously dressed lady nad Lela.
Lela ca from a Wizard Family, and though it was a small family, if Doron could connect with her, it could further his business.
The other party was sowhat challenging, having high standards, and she was always concerned about his Third Class Wizard Apprentice capabilities.
Doron couldn’t help it; cultivation aptitude had always been his weak point.
But he was a keen businessman, adept at playing to his strengths while avoiding his weaknesses.
His advantage was in wealth, so he invited Lela to dine at Avila Restaurant, and she agreed.
After all, not everyone could afford to eat at such a place, and even Lela, who ca from a Wizard Family, hesitated to dine here.
"How do you find the food, Miss Lela? Is it to your taste? I co here often, but I feel today’s quality isn’t great, not sure if you like it," Doron said casually.
Lela swirled the wine in her glass and seed sowhat more approving of Doron.
The Wizard Family she belonged to was still relatively weak, and marrying a wealthy rchant could indeed be a favorable option.
The union would be mutually beneficial.
However, Lela wanted to further assess, so she simply said, "Hmm, not bad."
Doron was chatting leisurely with Lela while pondering other matters.
In the eyes of others, Doron was rely a sowhat successful businessman.
But only Doron himself knew he was actually an Abyssal Cultist, albeit not a devout one.
Doron wasn’t particularly awed by the Evil God he communicated with; to him, even an Evil God was just a tool to be exploited.
He rely needed to feign piety, and the foolish Evil God from the Abyss Plane would reward him with treasures to aid his endeavors.
Of course, Doron knew that all of Land of Dawn prohibited dealings with entities from the Abyss Plane, and discovery ant death.
Yet Doron was unbothered, confident that he wouldn’t be exposed.
He cared little about the affairs between the Wizard Plane and the Abyss Plane, deeming such matters irrelevant to him.
When the sky falls, the tall ones hold it up.
Doron focused only on himself, only on whether he could make more money.
Ever since eting Lady Wendy, Doron had been unable to forget her.
Beyond her beauty, Doron was particularly envious of the White Mountain Black Water Jewelry business under Wendy’s control, eager to acquire it.
He tried many ans but couldn’t sway this woman at all.
