I am GSD, a sword that explodes stars

Chapter 28: Wine that helps you sleep (Please read later)
Some people in the back street looked at Sosia and Ivan as they left, then looked at the six charred bodies on the ground.

"It's a pity that I didn't get a bargain."

"The Shadow Society has failed this time."

"They deserved it. It's fine that they robbed those magicians with no special background, but they actually dared to target the elf in the Moonlight Tavern."

"But that blind man is really scary."

"A level 43 warrior has no chance of fighting back in front of him."

"What level is he?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? I can only detect up to level 1."

"Anyway, just don't mess with them in the future."

The back streets are a hodgepodge and have many bars, so the information is very well-informed.

Of course they knew who these six dead charcoal men were when they were alive.

The nights in the Sgli area are a paradise for backstreets and certain organizations.

Although there were no slaves in the Sgri region, other countries had slavery, so catching some high-quality slaves and selling them could make a lot of money.

It's just that although they all live underground, different jobs have their own meanings. For example, kidnapping ordinary women and selling them as slaves is an activity that is looked down upon by most people in the back streets.

They also have their own organizations and guilds in the back streets.

There are three types: poachers, assassins, and eavesdroppers.

The main business they do is burglary, highway robbery, gathering intelligence, gang crimes, and assassination orders.

This kind of work is the most efficient and they will not have any psychological burden.

Generally, they would not attack guys whose level was below 20, because those guys did not have much money, and most of them specialized in robbing or assassinating some prominent figures. They were the type who would not take orders for three years, but would make a living for three years if they took orders.

Although they have a bad reputation and are usually not seen in public, they feel that they are still doing well.

Alvin and Sosia returned to the tavern safely, and they didn't pay too much attention to the little incident that happened on the way.

Alvin started checking these guys' magic backpacks directly.

"The golden belt of murder and arson, you will not deceive me."

"This is a really good harvest."

He counted his gains, and not counting all the strange equipment and props he didn't recognize, there were 131W gold coins alone.

"Magic net, anti-magic shackles, lime powder, slip of tongue potion, plus the anti-magic stone I just destroyed, these guys seem to be a professional organization targeting mages."

"You killed them all too easily. You should have left one behind to interrogate them about their origins."

Sosia watched as Ivan poured the contents of his magic backpack directly onto the table and discovered some of the more special things.

These items are basically items that have miraculous effects on the magician profession.

"It's okay. It's not too late to ask now."

Ivan didn't leave any survivors because there was no need. He had the ability to make a ghost cry. How could interrogation be easier than directly asking the ghost?
Hearing that Sosia wanted to know more details, he stretched out his ghost hand and the runes on it flashed, and a ghost appeared in front of the two of them.

"Who are you?"

"Who the hell are you... ah——"

The ghost was summoned and did not answer the question. Instead, he looked as if he had seen a ghost and asked in horror.

"Clarify the situation. I am asking you, not you asking me."

Ivan clenched his ghost hand, and the ghost's body became distorted as runes flashed. He would never show mercy to those who deliberately attacked him.

The ghost only felt his soul trembling. This kind of pain was simply not something a human could endure, so after being tortured for only a dozen seconds, he began to beg for mercy.

"Please... let me go... I'll tell you everything..."

"Go ahead."

Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Alvin did not continue to torture him, and the runes on the ghost hand dimmed.

"We are from the Shadow Society. On the surface, we accept various commissions to help people. At night, when lawless people are acting lawless, we kidnap people and sell them as slaves. In secret, we mainly kidnap magicians and sacrifice them for our [Shadow]."

"We didn't attack you on purpose this time. We were just waiting there and didn't expect to run into you."

The ghost felt the piercing pain fade away, but his voice was still trembling, and he was filled with fear of the man before him.

"Shadow? Some kind of god?"

When Alvin heard the word "sacrifice", his originally uninterested heart became interested.

"To be precise, it should be a powerful shadow monster."

"After it devours the magician, it can strip off the shadow from its body and merge it into our bodies, giving us the power of shadow." "It allows people like us who have no talent for magic to practice fighting spirit and shadow magic together and become stronger."

The ghost did not dare to hide anything and honestly revealed the secrets of the Shadow Society.

For them, as long as they can improve their level without damaging their own interests, they are willing to do anything.

However, the man in front of him was only level one and looked like a blind man. His strength was too terrifying and he was no match for him at all.

Not only does it have an inexplicable suction force, but it can also forcibly summon his soul out after his death and torture him.

Even if he swears to death and refuses to obey now, the man in front of him can definitely torture him until he submits.

Therefore, he had no intention of resisting at all. He just wanted to confess the truth so that he could leave early or even die completely.

"Since it's targeting magicians, wait until Sallyland comes back and talk to her about it."

"Let her deal with this Shadow Society."

"Besides the money, you can take these things to Sally Lan and let her use them as evidence."

With a wave of his hand, Alvin shattered the ghost's body and turned into a puff of smoke, dying completely. He collected the pile of gold coins on the table and looked at Sosia who was watching on the side.

He could understand this group of people's pursuit of power, but he did not agree with their approach.

The path to becoming stronger is not just about doing something immoral.

Even if you don't practice magic and only follow the path of fighting spirit, you can still become a strong person as long as you persevere.

Of course, there are not so many patient people in the world. There are more people who choose to take shortcuts when they see a shortcut to becoming stronger and have the opportunity to choose.

"Okay, I will definitely tell Sally Lan about these things."

"But your ability is really convenient."

Sosia now completely understood that the reason why Alvin killed those guys directly was not just because he was too lazy to bother with the trouble.

But once Alvin is interested, he can summon the souls of those who died recently and interrogate (torture) them.

She knew that she could see it because the other party must have taken the initiative to let her see it.

"It is indeed useful, but you have to hear the wailing of various ghosts at other times."

Ivan said calmly.

The ability brought by the Devil May Cry profession has unique advantages in many things, but the disadvantage is that before the strength is strong enough, it will always be harassed by ghosts.

.

This intrusion may not necessarily cause him harm, but it will make it difficult for him to enjoy absolute quiet.

"It seems that everything always has its pros and cons."

"Mr. Ivan, you have helped me a lot this time. It's already late. Considering your situation, I will treat you to some Elf Sleep Essence."

"This wine can help you sleep, and I guarantee you'll fall asleep peacefully within minutes of drinking it."

Sosia first went to the bar and got a bottle of special wine, a glass of which cost 3 to 5 gold coins.

Generally, only those strong people who are exhausted physically and mentally, and eager to find some peace and a good sleep to restore some condition will buy it.

She knew that once she told the price, Alvin would definitely pay for it, but the other party helped her this time, so she definitely couldn't tell him how much a bottle would cost.

"You still have this good wine?"

When Alvin heard about the good wine that could help him sleep, it was impossible for him not to be interested.

Even though he had gradually gotten used to the noise brought by the waves and ghosts, he still wanted to have a good sleep.

"I have a wide variety of good wines here. As long as you don't leave, you will slowly get to know them."

"Don't drink yet. Go to the bathroom at the end of the left side of the third floor and take a shower. Then go to the first room on the left side of the third floor."

"I'll send up the phonograph and the wine."

Sosia smiled slightly when she heard that, she opened the bottle and a charming aroma of wine came out, which was poured into a tall wine glass. The silver wine emitted a little light and contained amazing magical fluctuations.

"If it really can help me sleep, I will definitely pay for it in the future."

"Other people may not be able to spend money often, but it's not a big deal for me."

Ivan stood up upon hearing this.

"Of course, I invited you this time."

Sosia knew Ivan's character and didn't argue about whether to pay.
