At this time, their ’guests’ were still on the view deck, studying the territory and planning routes. Baltimore also listened to the rest of the information Seto managed to obtain by giving out a few golds.
Heh. They had so many problems the past day or two and it only needed two bad gouji fruits to spill so much information.
"The top candidate for Lord, Mathilda, lives right next door to that Althea, Garan, and Eugene," Seto said, pointing at the farmvilla area near the farms."
It made sense for the leaders to be near each other, showing the farm villa was one of the areas for the elites. At the very least, they had seen the luxury villas and it was definitely a later addition.
They also saw that Althea’s home was much larger, combining two house-and-lots. Her garden was also incredibly rich, and it was likely she did a lot of her experiments in her own home.
It just made Baltimore all the more interested in her.
They then turned to the tall tower located at the apex of the mountain ranges within the territory line. It was taller than the light tower and it had a clock embedded into it.
It had intricate patterns around it that were both unique and allowed it to blend beautifully with the surrounding gardens. On its foot were seating arrangements, but he couldn’t help but think it served a bigger purpose than aesthetics. The locked door was further proof of that.
Anyway, from the apex, the group continued to memorize the place for a while longer as they waited for everyone to get there, hopefully with new information they could take advantage of.
"Where’s Treck?" Ero asked after a while. "It’s past deadline."
"Maybe he’s lost track of time again," Seto said with a sigh. "I suggest to wait in the inn, instead."
Thinking Treck was an idiot and would definitely get punished later, they decided to go down the trail. At some point though, a woman suddenly appeared in their path. frёewebηovel.cѳm
It was a woman who looked a bit unsightly compared to the other women in the village.
The villagers here generally appeared clean and proper, this one’s dress was a bit ripped on the top, revealing a good part of her breasts, and it made a few men’s eyes—especially Ero’s—darken in lust.
She still had a good form and flesh though. Obviously, at least until recently, she had been quite well-fed.
Regardless of her history, at this time, her eyes were panicked and obviously desperate, and she looked at them as if they were her saviors.
A couple of days ago, Ramona had been kicked out by Danny.
The old bastard had been hired by Ansel for his entertainment company in the works, and he didn’t want to risk such a good opportunity, so he cut ties with Ramona as if she was a bug.
Well, that wasn’t entirely incorrect, not that Ramona would ever realize this.
Anyway, since she had been kicked out, Ramona had been trying to clutch to a new man, but all the good men knew of her reputation and steered clear of her as if she was a plague, while those who would make moves would only like her body.
She would bed them for one night and they’d give her money, before leaving her and rarely care for her again.
Like a prostitute.
