Chapter 684 Chapter 684: Assassination!?

When he was finally done controlling all the files Eric made a simple addition of all the neccessities he had purchased which had reached a good 7000.

Out of the 7653 there were only 1000 won, 3000 n, and the rest were all children of different ages, with most of them being below 10 years old.

The total price went to a staggering 50k Goulds, which was a sum that possible only the high nobles or the highest of the officials could afford.

Even them though would need to save or pay this ammount across a few years to say the least. After all what kind of noble or official would keep such an amount in liquid cash.

In fact, even if Eric managed to make the deal with the Sultan and the Vezir about the pills he was going to sell them, he still wouldn't be able to get this ammount in cash right away.

It's a good thing that he never intended to pay it himself, and even more so that paying right away wasn't neccesary as these establishnts accepted paynt in installnts.

The managers sent from all the establishnts were aware that Eric's purchase was perhaps one of the biggest they had ever done since the establishnt of the Neccesity Market.

At first they were afraid of Eric's purchase and intentions, as he alone didn't hold enough credibility, even having Ekim a Palace Guard by his side didn't give him enough credibility.

In fact, the poor Ekim had once again started to fear what might happen, as he didn't want to be held responsible from the Sultan.

Yet in order to make sure that these rchants didn't overstep their boundaries he still notified them of Eric's identity as the new Brother-in-law of the Sultan.

In fact, he even made sure to ntion that the Sultan had decided to marry all three of his sisters to Eric and not just one of them.

The rchants didn't dare to doubt his words, because Ekim was actually throwing away his life if he dared to lie about such an important thing.

This new identity of Eric, even though still left him mysterious, it was enough of identity and guarantee proof that they werent being mocked or that they wouldn't be paid.

In fact, even if Eric didn't actually pay them, they werent really worried any longer as they could just ask from the Royal Palace to either wave their taxes, or take the money from the Palace.

After all while they werent stronger than the Royal Palace they still had relatively quite a high influence in the City-State matters.

Furthermore the Sultan would never start a fight against them for just 50k Goulds. For that reason, the glominess of the thoughts that Eric wasn't going to pay vanished once again.

While they prepared everything for Eric, the man himself was now enjoying the treatnt of all the beauties around him, and he had even made sure that his guards were well taken care off as well.

'AAARRRGGGHHHHHHHHH~! Assassin~!'

Just as everyone, including Eric were enjoying their ti, a terrified scream followed by quite a few more spread throughout the place, turning everyone alert.

What made everyone imdeatly turn with their feet on the ground from whatever high effect they were at the mont, was the word assassins.

At this point, everyone had turned their attention towards Eric's location were 6 black dressed figgures had appeared around a bloodied Eric.

Yes there were 6, 3 inch knife wounds on his bare chest really close to the neck, clearly showing that there had been 6 attempts on his life.

The guards imdiately jumped into action as they couldn't afford to waste their ti any longer, as each second was precious to them and Eric himself.

The beauties around Eric had all spread around and escaped, as none of them was a trained fighter, and none of them wanted to ss into sothing that they shouldn't.

Eric was left alone against 6 assassins that had already taken a shot at him, and were looking for the second and lethal shot.

It wasn't like Eric's death hadnt been set in stone, as all six assassins had their knives coated in poison and Eric was sure to die.

But in order to assure their mission they had to make sure that Eric died in front of their eyes, only like that would they receive whatever they were promised.

For so weird reason all six assassins took a look at each other, seeming puzzled over sothing, which gave Eric's guards enough ti to reach over.

One had to know what two guards of 6th Realm were already verified to be by his side, so whoever planned this assassination would have sent soone much more powerful than that.

Which made sense as from the aura and they were emanating it was clear that 4 of the 6 assassins were 6th Realm and there were even two 7th Realm assassins among them.

Eric's chances of survival were rock bottom, and that was without considering the fact that he had been poisoned.

At this point, a ntal ssage was sent to Eric,

"It seems like we three sisters weren't the only ones thinking to end such a scourge like you!

To think a useless duck like you wants to have swan at, you can only bla yourself for your fate!"

Eric heard those words as he weirdly looked towards one of the assassins in special, as if he wanted to say sothing but he couldn't.

Blood started coming out the edge of his mouth and his nostrils, and he looked really close to dying.

The assassins were probably about to dissappear as they saw this happen, but for so strange reason they felt that sothing was wrong.

Before they could see Eric fall down on the ground without being able to breath, they saw one of his guards crush a pill into her mouth, and then french-feed him.

Not having expected such a change the assassins wanted to imdiately jump and attack Eric to put an end once and for good, but they were stopped from the two 6th Realm, and three 5th Realm guards.

Of course, it wasn't to be forgotten that there was also Ekim on their side, who was nonetheless a 5th Realm evolver.

Things had just beca more complicated, as it wouldn't take long for the guards from the Neccessities Market, and also the experts protecting the various rchants.

Since Eric had just made a big order it was against their best interests to have him die. So, while they wouldn't die with him, they would make sure to give him a helping hand.

While such thoughts were running down the assassins minds, they decided to give it their all since the first attack.

So while the 5th and 6th Realm guards actions were praiseworthy and dignifying they weren't of much value at the end of the day.

Trying to compare 5th and 6th Realms to a 7th Realm was just like comparing a motorcycle, to a car, and then to a big bus.

In an clash of full power the motorcycle would be completely blasted, while the car would most certainly be in a better condition, but not much better either.

The resistance of Ekim and Eric's guards only managed to put a stop to the attack in a brieff second, before the six assassins continued towards Eric.

Eric's face had just started to regain colour, after he had been stuffed that pill from the guard lady who for so reason had been unnoticeable until now.

Yes, it was only now that they saw there was actually a beautiful woman guard beside Eric, one whose beauty was beyond evaluation, and whose presence was completely erased.

She seed pissed!

One didn't need to stare or look at her for more than a mont to understand that she was pissed!

Extrely pissed!

"You bastards are courting death!

And you idiots on the ground, this is not the ti to play gas, Your Masters life is in danger if you don't show your strength now, then I am going to personally kill each and every one of you!"

Just as those words sounded through the area, the atmosphere started to change. Out of nowhere the beauties inside could feel a chill like death was staring at each and every one of them separately.

It wasn't only them though, even the assassins who were supposed to be ready to face any situation, and had co face to face with death many tis couldn't help but feel a sudden need to tremble.

Yes, tremble!

The terrifying assassins of a mont ago started trembling just like bamboo shots in a rainstorm, and they didn't even understand why, until they felt the pressure on them.

Their attack had long been broken, it was right from the mont the beauty had watched them in the eyes.

Unable to even turn their heads around, the six assassins could feel 5 pressures of 8th Realm behind them, and even the pressure of 9th Realm coming from the beauty in front of them.

Of course, they could only think that it was a 9th Realm pressure, as it was beyond their evaluation. They only knew that it was like nothing they had felt ever before.

Just the thought of that made them unable to make sense of reality, as such powerhouses were the founders of a City-State.

Only by relying on the support of such a powerhouse would one be able to have a City-State recognised and not attacked.

The list of 9th Realm powerhouses was known to all, and it rarely update, but even then there was no such woman in that list.

But they didn't have the ti to learn of her identity, as 4 assassins fell on the ground while trembling and shivering…
