The Reward for Obtaining Information

"Witch Cult?"

When this word rang out throughout the Thieves' Den space, the air in the dirty bar instantly cooled down.

Not only that, except for Fang Li, the faces of everyone else have changed to varying degrees.

Only Subaru Natsuki, as if he didn't understand the situation at all, asked with a confused look on his face.

"Witch Cult? What is that?"

No one answered Subaru Natsuki's question.

Even Reinhard, who had been communicating with Subaru Natsuki as if they were familiar, narrowed his eyes slightly and finally put away the perfect smile on his face, ignoring Subaru Natsuki.

On the contrary, Emilia opened his eyes slightly and his expression became complicated.

"Witch Cult..." Parker seemed to have stopped playing around, and he didn't know when he returned to Emilia, and spoke with a sigh.

"I didn't expect that such an existence would be involved in such a place."

Basically, the rest of the people were the same as Parker. They had no idea that that name would be involved here.

Therefore, even the charming hunter raised a nice eyebrow, looked at Fang Li with interest, and lightly opened his red lips.

"Although I don't know why you ask this question, let me ask first, why do you think I know the whereabouts of Witch Cult?"

Hearing this, Fang Li just raised his eyes and spoke indifferently.

"Because, I know very well that as a being active in the dark world, usually the people who know the scope of its activities best are not the opponents, but the peers."

This is knowledge learned more than once in Armed Detective High School.

"The people who know the underworld best are definitely not the police, but their colleagues in the underworld."

Just like business competitors.

For these people, the most important thing to know is the territory controlled by their peers, so as not to flood the Dragon King Temple.

Therefore, in the world of underworld, underworld organizations will try their best to prevent information from being learned by the police, but they will deliberately leak some of their information to their peers.

This is to tell them that this is my territory, and if they cross the line, it will be the result of a real meeting with real swords and guns.

This principle basically applies to any organization active underground.

It is also because of this that the police usually need the assistance of informants, so it is a bit difficult to investigate on their own.

"As for you, Assassin who was hired to prevent other Royal Selection members from participating in Royal Selection, you should be able to get some information about Witch Cult no matter what channel you use, right?"

Fang Li looked at the charming woman and said this with a half-smile.

"Am I right?"

""Gut Slicer"..."

Hearing the heart-stopping nickname from Fang Li, the smile on the charming woman's face did not diminish.

That alluring smile was originally extremely beautiful.

However, with that creepy nickname, regardless of others, Subaru Natsuki started to tremble a little.

In this case, Fang Li started explaining directly.

"Elsa-Gransielt, was born in Gustico, the northern country, and his identity is Assassin, a hired man. Because he likes to cut open the abdomen of assassination targets, he is called "Gut Slicer"."

"... Although I was stabbed through the heart at that time."

"Although you are Assassin who was born in another country, even in Kingdom of Lugnica, you are a famous killer."

Fang Li completely revealed the other party's identity. Even though Subaru Natsuki's complaints were interspersed in the middle, he still looked at Elsa as if he hadn't heard anything.

"For a killer like you who is active in the dark world, in terms of reputation, even knowing some information about Witch Cult is not an exaggeration, so I think, no matter how much or how little, at least you should know some information in this regard."

This is the reason why Fang Li will come directly to Thieves' Den in this week.

One of the reasons is to settle the account with Felt for stealing Bō Xié.

Another reason is to know the whereabouts of Witch Cult.

After all, this is information closely related to Main Quest of Fang Li.

Although Fang Li's original intention of coming to this world was to observe Subaru Natsuki, as a Main God Envoy, Instance World's mission must be completed no matter what.

Therefore, Fang Li came here directly and met Elsa as he wished.

"I sincerely hope I can get some information from you."

Fang Li said to Elsa somewhat artificially, "For this purpose, I have been waiting for you here for a long time. In terms of etiquette, shouldn't you also give me something to gain so that I don't leave empty-handed?"

Fang Li's words drew the attention of everyone present to Elsa.

However, Elsa just said with that dazzling and charming smile, "What an interesting statement. Waiting for a lady is what a gentleman should do, and it is a bit rude to use it to get paid. No matter what, it is a bit rude."

"But I don't hate it. "Elsa swung the murder weapon in his hand with flexible movements and answered Fang Li's question truthfully.

"Indeed, after accepting the commission and coming here, I have heard more or less that Witch Cult seems to be planning to do something in this area recently, so it seems that he has been operating secretly."

One sentence made almost everyone present feel excited.

"This is not a good thing. Parker directly stated his thoughts and said: "That crazy cult is actually operating nearby. No matter how you hear it, it is not a worry-free thing." "

"I feel the same way about this. "Reinhard also said thoughtfully, "Especially as Royal Selection is approaching recently, and even hiring Assassin to take the life of Royal Selection has happened. A storm is inevitable. If Witch Cult is allowed to take part, it will be really uneasy."

"Did you hear it too? "Fang Li immediately shrugged and said to Elsa, "A lot of people here seem to be very concerned about Witch Cult's whereabouts. If possible, please provide us with more information."

"Okay. "Elsa agreed without saying a word.

However, the expressions of Felt, Subaru Natsuki and Old Man Rom all changed suddenly, including Emilia who had been silent from the beginning.

Because, the smile on Elsa's face turned bloody unconsciously.

That's the look of a hunter.

"Look carefully, there are many addictive opponents here. Your intestines must be of very beautiful color, right?"

Elsa licked his lips.

"I can fulfill your wish."

"Your intestines as payment."

The murderous aura suddenly swelled.
