Why Pay When You Can Get It for Free?

To be honest, Alvin was also confused.

It should be noted that a true Sisters of Silence possesses top-tier combat prowess.

Even though they were mortal, they were by no means a "burden," and besides, how could those who could serve alongside the Adeptus Custodes be simple?

However, the truth is that this Sisters of Silence was captured in a trap set by dozens of mortals, and then thrown into a dungeon, becoming a rare "collection," which is simply incomprehensible.

To Alvin, Nick's description of heavy losses sounded somewhat like "bragging."

Capturing a Sisters of Silence with only a few dozen noble private soldiers—isn't that just showing off?

Could it be that every member of the Fernando Family's private army is a super IG?

It doesn't seem like that's impossible. Just as Alvin was pondering this, Nick opened the cell door and strode over to the bound Sisters of Silence, looking down at her.

"Consider yourself lucky. This prince from the 'Acquis' family, from the Imperium Sanctus, has taken a liking to you."

Throughout, Nick maintained an arrogant attitude, even his tone towards Sisters of Silence was filled with disgust and disdain. "Be grateful that you, an 'Unclean One,' have been favored by His Highness of the Acquis Family!"

However, Nick only responded with silence, clearly indicating that the Sisters of Silence was not very "honored".

"This is your only chance." Nick, not wanting to lose face in front of this noblewoman, bent down and whispered menacingly in her ear, "Otherwise, I'll show you what I'm capable of, you damned Unclean One!"

Ding!

Suddenly, the iron chains on both sides of the wall were violently pulled!

The Sisters of Silence exerted her strength, the chains rattling with a teeth-grinding sound as she struggled furiously, trying to crush the despicable man before her.

Nick was startled by her sudden action and hurriedly took a few steps back. But looking at the Sisters of Silence was still bound in place, he became furious and pulled out something that looked like a controller from his pocket and pressed it hard.

A powerful electric current traveled along the chains, immediately causing the Sisters of Silence to tremble and let out a painful groan.

But even that wasn't enough to appease Nick. He kicked the Sisters of Silence in the stomach several times, yelling and cursing, "You scared the hell out of me! Get your facts straight! You're a lowly, evil 'Unclean One' now!"

"Alright."

At this point, Alvin couldn't stand it anymore and reprimanded, "She's just merchandise I've set my sights on. Who gives you the right to lecture me?"

These words brought a fawning look to Nick's face. He rubbed his hands together, bowed, and ran back, saying meekly, "Sir, I was just teaching him a lesson for you. This guy is incredibly stubborn; no matter how many times he's beaten, he just won't back down. You saw it yourself, so..."

"No need, I prefer tough guys."

Alvin grinned with a hint of lewdness, licking his lips. "People like this are the most fun to mess with."

"I understand, I understand." Nick took in his reaction and naturally expressed his understanding.

Isn't it normal for the Imperium nobility to act a little abnormally?

Judging from Selene's expression, Alvin's portrayal of the Acquis Family's psychopathic young master is quite vivid.

I wonder what the Acquis Family will think when they find out how their reputation has been ruined.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Alvin.

All he could think about now was taking the Sisters of Silence away, no matter what!

Actually, back on Alert Star, Alvin had long coveted the Sisters of Silence who accompanied the Inquisitor.

However, poaching someone in person would be too damaging to one's "aristocratic demeanor," so he had no choice but to abandon the idea.

Now that he's finally found someone, how could he possibly let him go?

With his "Warp" ability, he desperately needs a Sisters of Silence.

Nick quickly completed the handover procedures, and the Sisters of Silence officially became Alvin's property. However, they faced a very serious problem: how to proceed with the transaction?

Deactivate control?

Don't be ridiculous. Once the control is lifted, it's no exaggeration to say...

The enraged Sisters of Silence would kill everyone present in an instant, including Alvin, of course.

The Sisters of Silence's power to suppress Psyker is no less than a grandfather beating his grandson.

No matter what level of Psyker you are, unless you are "Alpha +", you are just an ant that can be easily killed in front of Sisters of Silence.

Among the rebellious Primarch was one who was proficient in Psychic Power; wasn't that something Sisters of Silence could easily humiliate?

Alvin didn't believe he had the ability to subdue a Sisters of Silence.

So, after several discussions, Alvin decided for the time being to continue having Sisters of Silence wear the restraints and simply transport her away.

"Um, Your Highness Charles..." Nick looked at Alvin with delight, rubbing his hands together; his meaning was clear.

"Don't worry, I'll be staying here for a while longer." Alvin patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Besides, I'm Scion of the Acquis Family, would I renege on my debt to you?"

Pay?

I'm sorry, but he never intended to pay in the first place.

If it's free, why should I pay?

Besides, it was the Acquis Family that cheated, what does it have to do with Alvin Valshius?

Alvin's self-righteous act of turning a blind eye was, in Nick's view, a perfectly normal action.

After all, what nobleman carries a large amount of currency when he goes out? With the reputation of the Acquis Family, he wasn't afraid that this young master would default on his debts.

"Of course, I'll arrange accommodations for you right away." Nick's mind was now filled with how to curry favor with this nobleman. "Wait a moment, I'll arrange for someone to deliver the goods to your new residence!"

"Very good, you did a good job."

Alvin also expressed his appreciation, patting him on the shoulder and saying, "A talent as outstanding as you shouldn't be staying here. I'll suggest to the Fernando family that you get more opportunities to shine."

This elaborate scheme was executed flawlessly.

Nick's heart burned with desire, and he became even more attentive, running around fawning over her.

"Your Highness Charles, I heard you only arrived today. You must be here for the annual auction." Nick eagerly handed him a card. "This is just a small token of my appreciation, to save you some trouble."

Alvin glanced down and saw that it was Level 3 Pass.

Not bad, that saved some trouble... He casually took the pass. "Well done, I'll remember you."

To be remembered by such a renowned nobleman of the Imperium filled Nick with trepidation, but he had achieved his goal. "No, no, no, I only did a trivial matter, Your Highness Your Highness Charles."
