Chapter 217: Slavery Is Unfair

"Did you guys do what I told you to do?"

Eren asked Ron and Dino who were standing in front of him with their necks slightly tilted towards the ground as if they were waiting for his orders. Ron stepped forward before reporting:

"Um.. yes. Kind of. We have started spreading the rumours. But I'm not sure they'll hold up for longer."

Ron said and waited for Eren to answer. The latter nodded at him before adding

"Thing about rumours is that they don't have to hold up. You don't have to worry about that.

What about the possible candidates? Did you find any buyers for our small project?"

Rons' face turned grim after he heard that. The project Eren was talking about was very dangerous. If their names get involved after the scene takes place, then death would be one of the lightest punishments they'd receive.

"Eren, I have to ask before we do this. What did Sienna or her friends ever do to you? Why are you fixated on fuc*king them over?"

Ron asked with a careful expression and voice. Eren just shrugged his shoulders before saying:

"Let's just say I don't like her. That should be enough for you to give you enough motivation to complete all the tasks I give you. Anyway, I'm waiting for my previous question to get answered."

Ron just gave up after hearing Eren being Eren. He remained unclear over why he was so upset with Sienna or her friends. But just like the butcher, Ron was okay with anything as long as it didn't come to bite him in the ass:

"*Sigh. There are takers. We have stayed anonymous for now by only using remote contacts. But we are not sure how we can keep that stay anonymous once things blow out of proportions."

"Ron, that's for you to figure out. Stay anonymous or come out of the woodworks. Either way, I'll cut ties with you if I see that the heat is about to reach me. I'd suggest you blame things on the cultists. Leave enough evidence to point the authorities in that direction when they take up the case, which they will.

But that's just my suggestion. You can use it if you want to. And I'll let you figure out the details yourself. But make sure we only go for the highest bidder and rake enough profits to take these risks."

Ron was irked by Eren's usage of the word "we" when it came to profits. But he'd have to deal with all the risks while Eren would stay in the background.

'Slavery is unfair.'

Ron thought as he started discussing the details of his next set of plans with Dino while Eren was around. He wanted Eren's opinion on his plans without asking for his opinion.

Eren shook his head and smiled lightly after seeing Ron's cunning in everything he does. The guy was as careful as him when dealing with shady things. If anyone could pull the plan he had on Sienna successfully while not getting Eren involved, then that would have to be Ron.

Eren suggested a few corrections to Ron's plans after he heard them. By doing so, they would be able to at least blur the lines between truth and lie, making it nearly impossible for authorities to link the stunts to them.

It was the weekend as usual for Edward Jener.

He was a lab supervisor for first-year LA students. And he was doing pretty well at his job. Not because LA paid him well. But because he was getting much-needed extra income from Sienna Slughorn and other rich students for helping them in their lab projects every so often.

The help was almost-risk free. There were no ways to trace him as someone who was getting bribed. And the returns on his extra efforts were more than what he could have ever hoped for.

So he was now used to spending his extra income on a few extra activities at the city of Lionhearts on weekends. And who could blame him? After all, the money should be earned so that you can spend it the way you choose.

This weekend was not going to be any different. His pockets had just gotten deeper with the top-up he just received from his rich clients. Now he needed to vent out some of his stress.

Edward had many vices. But booze, gambling, and hookers topped that list. So he first had some drinks. Afterwards, he headed to his known gambling den to try his luck. Alas, tonight was not his night.

But Edward wasn't discouraged. The extra money had turned him into a big ball of positivity. So his high-on-life attitude made him think about visiting the brothel house. He was just going to leave the place after quitting his table. But he wouldn't have imagined that he'd meet with the most beautiful woman he had seen in a while without leaving his table.

She graciously introduced herself as Elena. She was the most unsuitable person one could find at the gambling house. When Edward met her, he came to know from his known associates at the gambling den that she had almost lost everything.

The young woman approached Edward and asked him if she could watch him play. Edward had no reason to refuse so he simply said yes and decided to play another round. He had the money he needed after all.

'This woman's luck has been rotten for her. But it seems to have the opposite effect on people she comes in contact with. Hehe!'

Edward thought internally and chuckled to himself. This was because he had started winning his hands ever since he had come in contact with Elena.

Edward could see it in Elena's eyes that she was highly impressed with him. The latter half of time at the gambling places flew by in a jiffy. And the two gamblers came out laughing just when the den was about to close.

"Where to, Eddy?"

Elena asked with a knowing smile that almost flatlined Edward. It was time for him to exert the power of his bribed money and get into this young woman's pants.

Edward thought and led Elena to the most luxurious place he could think of: Grand Hiyat!

'Not this place again. This is the place I had chosen to fu*ck someone's brains out.

*Sigh. At least we have matching tastes.'

Someone in "Elena's" head spoke up. She couldn't help chuckling after she heard the voice in her head.
