Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Chapter 133 A Stay At The Hotel



"But they are the first batch, right?" Milson confirmed.

"Pure Mana Crystals: 97% Density Rate," Tom replied as he brought out the sample mana crystal.

Seeing the mana crystal with his eyes, Milson nodded, and Tom took the mana crystal back into his spatial ring.

Pure Mana Crystals were the first batch of mana crystals that came out of the mana mine and cost billions. Among them, those with a density rate higher than 90% were sold at 15 Billion AUR a ton.

There were only 5 tons of these pure crystals that Asher had managed to find in the Dungeon. Regular mana crystals in the market were those with 40-60% density to hold mana in them.

Such mana crystals were sold for millions as they were still pretty useful but couldn't be compared to Pure Mana crystals.

"If you want, we have some items that might catch your eye," Milson offered.

"Perhaps later," Asher said as he turned to leave the room.

Garreth and Tom followed Asher as Milson watched the three men wearing black masks leave.

Asher's answer made Milson guess the identity of the people sitting in front of him who offered such an amount of pure mana crystals, which were pretty rare. Most of such crystals were either in possession of the Artisan's Association or some of the big corporations involved in this business.

"Probably not someone from the elite families," he muttered.

Usually, young people from these families didn't hesitate to spend big in the Black Market, and as a manager there for some time, Milson knew about it as well. That's why the Black Market held auctions to reel in people who would spend big.

He ruled out people like Asher, who had become famous for spending much money in such places.

The news about the mana crystal mine was still not out, so Milson had no way of knowing where these Pure Mana Crystals had come from.

"Only if they didn't pressure me," Milson was annoyed.

He was considered one of the best managers in the Black Market and its various branches spread all over the continent. But he was not able to get the best price because he was told to secure this trade.

Coming out of the building, Asher sat in his car with his mask still on.

"Garreth, did you arrange the two S Rank Hunters I asked for?" Asher asked.

"Yes, Young Master," Garreth replied.

"They will arrive soon at the hotel we are staying in for now," he said while looking at his phone.

"Tom, did you find a clue about their locations?" Asher asked.

"Not for now, but there were reports that some World Association Officers went missing," Tom replied.

Soon, Asher's car arrived at one of the most luxurious hotels in Maxzil City, and he stepped out of the vehicle.

His mask was still on, so nobody recognized him, but they were still gathering the attention of many people.

"Wow, looks like a rich guy," a guy standing with his friends looked in Asher's direction.

Asher's security team followed him as they left the Black Market, so it was evident they would garner so much attention from the people around them.

Garreth walked forward and went to the manager standing in the lobby.

"Is our floor ready?" Garreth asked.

"Yes, and we have made sure that your stay will be comfortable," the manager said with a smile on his face.

Many employees were surprised to see the manager talk so politely to someone.

"Even that jerk is polite. Who are these people? Any idea?" the receptionist asked the male employee beside her.

"No, but we are told to stay away from the top floor unless we are called," he replied, making the woman even more curious.

"I will show you the way," the manager said as he walked towards the lift.

Asher and his security team followed the manager as he took them to a lift that was big enough to get all of them in.

Nobody was talking in the lift, so the manager was fidgeting with his fingers a lot. Even he didn't know the identity of these people. He had gotten a call from the hotel owner to make sure that Asher's group was given the best treatment.

"Some of our men will be downstairs, so I hope there will be no issues," Garreth said.

"Oh, there will be no issues," the manager replied.

The lift arrived at the lavish floor, and Asher stepped out.

The manager was about to step in as well when Garreth stopped him.

"We will find our way; you can go back now," his aura leaked, making the manager nervous as he stepped back immediately.

"Y-Yes, if you need anything, just call me," the manager replied, but he got a bit anxious as he looked over Garreth's shoulder.

Asher ignored whatever was happening behind him; his team was thoroughly trained to make sure nothing happened to him. They were some of the best hunters and were specially trained by the Greville family.

Asher's security would have been higher, but because he was in the World Academy, his S Rank security was given to Lucas and Livia. The security team following him was hunters that were under Emmy and were now working for Asher.

"I will meditate for an hour; make sure nobody disturbs me," Asher said as he entered his room while the security team stood outside.

Tom was also tired, so he decided to sleep as well. He went into a room and saw the lavish-looking room, which made him a bit uncomfortable, but he was too tired to care about it.

"Ah, I will keep the alerts on," Tom tapped on his laptop as he put it on the table.

"Let's get a good sleep," Tom slumped on his bed.

"Dane, I am telling you we should just leave this city," a man said, sitting in an empty alley.

"We need money, dude," Dane replied with a confused look on his face.

"You idiot, the World Association would catch us for sure," the man tried to convince him.

"Come on, during my last task in Maxzil, I heard that there was a stash of money on the top floor," Dane said as he pointed at a particular hotel.

It was quite a tall building, so it was really easy to spot it.

"And it's an illegal stash as well, so less security," Dane said with a smile.

"You're saying as if there will be no security," his partner frowned.

"I will kill them. You help me remove our traces, and then boom easy money," Dane said with a smile on his face.

"Come on, you know we are best in these kinds of jobs; even in Spyder, we were best in such missions," Dane tried to convince him.

"How much money are we talking about?" his partner asked.

"Millions; we will be set for years," Dane said with a smile on his face.

"Sigh, let's do it," he replied, and Dane's smile got wider.

*****************

Half an hour earlier, in the Abyss Guild Building,

"What? But we were supposed to go to the dungeons today!" a man wearing armor said with a frustrated look on his face.

"The request came from the Greyhounds. Don't ask stupid questions," his team leader replied.

Greyhounds was the term used for the special hunters that were trained by the Greville family, like Garreth and Emmy.

"Both you and he will go to Maxzil; I have sent the instructions to you already," he continued.

"I don't want any complaints and don't make trouble with those guys. Unlike us, those guys are connected to the Greville family, who are hired through contracts," he explained, but the two men were already annoyed.

Today they were going to try to clear a dungeon they had prepared for a long time, and it got called off due to the sudden request.

"Sure, let's go, Corey," the man replied as he turned, but the look on his face didn't change.

He was an S-Rank hunter who was only 28 years old. He was also quite famous in the Abyss Guild, and this Dungeon clearly would have made his name soar considerably.

'I am not their dog,' he spoke to himself.

"I expect you and Corey to create no problems and come back as soon as possible," the team leader said as he saw the two men leave the room.

Both of them were young and talented; they had reached S Rank before hitting their 30s, which was considered quite good. However, such talents were rare, and so they were treated fairly well in the Abyss Guild.

"Man, this is such a bummer," Corey said as he sat in the car with the other guy.

"We would have gotten promoted in the Guild after today's run as well," he said as they approached the portal.

Both of them didn't know that they were being called because of Asher, and if they had known, they wouldn't have acted in such a manner. Despite being an S Rank, they were nothing in front of the elite families. Even SS Rank Hunters in the Abyss Guild respected Arthur, who was the Vice Guildmaster, not just because of Nathan.

Despite being an S+ Rank Hunter, Arthur could hold his own against an SS Rank hunter. Also, there were not many SS Rank hunters in the world. And most of them chose to align themselves with one of the strongest families or Associations.

"Honestly, those Greyhounds are nothing compared to us," the man said, making Corey nod at him.

"At least we don't live with a leash on our necks," he could only say such things because he was with his trusted friend.
