254 Scamming a noble
-I am getting the hang of controlling my anger and my intent. I didn’t see these people’s sins directly, but I would choose imprisonment for life.-
Kazumi felt relieved hearing these words. Vincent didn’t change into a mindless, bloodthirsty murder that uses justice as an excuse to end another’s life.
Vincent entered the office and respectfully bowed in front of Viscount Demel Blackheart. However, this bow was the hardest respectful gesture he ever made in his life.
“Good evening, my lord. I recently acquired an exotic product from my trading network. As the guard announced, I have a fresh Mudcrab Leg to sell at a reasonable price.” Vincent said before his poker face stopped showing a friendly smile.
Viscount Demel Blackheath curved a grin and placed an Inspection Gemstone on the desk. “I hope it’s as fresh as you say. I hate lies.” He menacingly said.
Vincent confidently smiled and summoned one mudcrab leg. Then he placed it on the desk and took a step back. A hologram with the stats of the item soon appeared, which made Demel Blackheart quite delighted.
“Fresh indeed. Do you have a special storage bag perhaps as well?” He asked.
[Your plan worked as you thought it would. I didn’t think he would be interested in our Soul Dimensional Storage this soon.]
Vincent smiled and acted excited while saying, “It was a fortune encounter to meet with a trader from the Central Content. We became friends, and he offered to sell me one special soul-bound bag of holding each month. Our next meeting is in two weeks. I can reserve on for my lord if my lord desires.”
.....
Viscount Demel Blackheart became interested in this proposition. “What is the special feature of this storage bag?” He asked.
“Total preservation is the special feature. Warm food remains warm, and fresh materials remain fresh. That’s why I could travel so far without having this precious jewel-like meat spoiling on the way.” Vincent boasted as much as he could.
“How much is this storage bag? ” Demel Blackheart asked. He looked interested in acquiring one.
-Hey Kazumi, what price can I tell him to pay. But not too high that he decides to attack me.-
[How about some gold? It is unbelievable storage, after all, hehe.]
“My lord, I am afraid of making you angry. I received an eighty percent discount so that I could demonstrate how it works. But... ahem, the price is three gold.” Vincent acted as apologetic as he could.
‘So, are you willing to pay you bastard?’ He thought.
*Sigh* “Fine. The next one is mine. I hope you bring it in two weeks’ time. I hate liars.” Demel Blackheart opened a drawer from the desk and threw on the desk three gold coins without the slightest hesitation.
Vincent’s and Kazumi’s minds paused for a moment. They didn’t know the scam would work immediately.
“Ahem. As for the Mudcrab Leg, I will give my lord some discount for our...” Vincent was saying before the sound of coins interrupted him. His eyes lowered on the desk, and beside the three gold coins were five more.
“Take this much for now. I promise to give you three times more when you bring me the special soul-bound bag of holding. I made a fantastic trade this morning and used up all the money on me.” Demel Blackheart said.
“I completely understand, my lord. As a trader that likes to keep a low profile and act as an adventurer, I too like to keep my money in a safe place.” Vincent extended his hand and touched the gold coins one after the other.

Demel Blackheart smiled, and he couldn’t wait to acquire such a soul-bound bag of holding for a low price. He estimated the soul-bound bag of holding to be of Exotic grade.
Vincent raised his hand and summoned a vial. He placed it in front of the Inspection Gemstone, and a hologram soon appeared.

“I knew my lord was interested in purchasing this Mudcrab Leg. So I managed to acquire this unique item to give my lord the best night of his life. Do you have a wife or a servant I can teach on how to use this item? This is so precious that it must be used sparingly. I don’t know if my contact can make another one so soon.” Vincent said.
Vincent tried placing the thoughts of it being a premium item. He also tried to give Demel Blackheart the urge to make out and use both items together. Mudcrab Leg for him and body wash for the unfortunate person he calls to have fun.
[Good thing we found the Pollen Lilly yesterday and managed to create a body wash that was never created before and had Iris name it with my extraordinary naming skills, hehe.]
[Ahem, the scented effects and aphrodisiac effects can further our plan to make this bastard use the Mudcrab Meat today. The body wash might help us find Lilith if we are lucky. Or we could find an illegal slave and offer her a chance to kill the man who is making her life miserable.]
*Snap* Viscount Demel Blackheart snapped his fingers. The door guard entered and asked to receive an order.
“Tell number eight to cook me a few cuts of this mudcrab meat, and then tell him to do his best to preserve the meat. Tell him his life is on the line. But before that, take our guest to number zero. Our guest knows what to do.” Demel Blackheart told the guard.
Then he turned his gaze over to Vincent and finished the discussion with, “I hope I can trust you enough to keep what you see here to your grave. Additionally, choose me a young one. I might be interested in giving you a bonus if this night is as pleasant as you said. But remember, my eyes and ears are everywhere in this city.”
“Most definitely, my lord. I can’t be a trader without the ability to keep secrets to my grave. I call these kinds of things as customer preferences. It helps me decide the best product I can provide to my lord.” Vincent later clenched his teeth and respectfully bowed. He followed the guard and left the office.
[Does it mean we are going to a secret room I mentioned before? But man, good thing you are following the guard. Demel Blackheart has such a disgusting lustful grin it might make me puke. Good thing you aren’t seeing it.]
-Yeah... good thing...-
Vincent tried his best to remain calm. Kazumi’s words further emphasized how he was about to prepare an illegal save to pleasure the vile beast.
Additionally, Vincent had mixed feelings about the eight gold he scammed. He firmly believed it was dirty money made out of unspeakable things, but he and his girls could get hunted at any moment.
Beggars can’t be choosers, so Vincent decided only to use the money when in need, as if the eight gold didn’t exist in his storage.
“Umm, might I know where the bathroom is? I came here as soon as I could, and I didn’t make a stop before coming here.” Vincent asked.
The guard stopped. “There is one at the end of this corridor. Do you think it is going to take a long time? I can’t let this Mudcrab Leg lose its freshness.” He worriedly asked. His life might also be on the line.
“I am sorry, but I think so. I tried new flavored milk, and it upset my stomach for a whole day.” Vincent held his stomach and faked an urgent nature call with a contorted face.
“I will notify the others, so head straight and turn left. Ask any of the guards, and they will escort you to number zero.” The guard slightly bowed his head and left at a quick pace.
-I will leave the searching to you, scoutmaster Kazumi.-
[Yes. I scout without being undetected, and no wall can stop my cute body. But remember to follow me since my range is anchored to your body.]
Kazumi used Soul Export to exit Vincent’s Soul Domain. The time started ticking, and the mana to remain outside as well.
Kazumi used her Photographic Memory to search each room quickly and accurately map out the mansion’s layout and match it with the layout Maid Xu drew on the ground.
After a few rooms, Kazumi noticed how the rooms were all the same. Most were empty, and others were filled with a couple of dirty wooden crates. Both room types were covered in cobwebs and dust as if they were abandoned rooms. Only a few rooms had a bed or two, but only one looked luxurious and large.
Kazumi soon entered a large room that momentarily dazed her from surprise and shock at the same time.
It was an unusual room with three long sofas, many cushions of different sizes, and paintings of women almost naked, teasing anyone looking at the picture. A table with a giant bong and a bowl with a green finely chopped strange-looking grass was in the middle. It looked like a party room.
