Chapter 843 - Thieves In The Night



Chapter 843

(Unedited)

Link Garret has always been in control of the market in Central Town. From the honest merchants to the most dishonest underground secret forces, he has them in the palm of his hands. On the surface, he is one of the honest businessmen living a rich life within the town.

As his influence grew, so does his fame. Many influential people from the town have started dealings with him and this made his business grew bigger and his power also widens within the town.

Hence he was elected as the president of the chamber of commerce in the town even though he was of humble beginning.

Who would want to antagonize someone who has the whole underground business in the town? No noble would want to be entangled with him and the power he holds. Even the Town Head would look at him with respect because of his power and only those military people would not bat an eye on him and his dark forces.

However, in these past weeks, a certain shop has caught his eyes and he continuously observed that shop. Its name the Mystique Shop added mysteriousness and novelty to its products. Many merchants have already received its goods and it was surprisingly better than those they have gotten from Arjing Village.

The design varied and its light intensity also varied which gives their customer choices and this made people want to buy the product. Plus the price can be considered cheap and most of the town\'s folks can afford it.

The shop also sells enchanted trinkets which are a bit rare in town but their prices are a bit expensive and those things are enclosed in protected display boxes.

The luxury and novelty of the shop\'s products have already attracted the eyes of the underground forces and many of them can\'t wait to move.

However, how can they do that when the army was still in the town? So of course they waited and waited and now that the army has left, they knew that the time is at hand.

The new product called the radio became another product that attracted the nobles at most. Because the price is enough for a poor family to live their lives for an entire year, most people can only admire and dream of owning it. But for the nobles, many have already decided to buy one.

"Come, everyone! This is the unveiling of our new product, the radio. I will now introduce to you all the features of this new and innovative product!" a handsome made began his introduction and his words were heard by all people as he uses a microphone and his voice is transmitted to the loudspeakers around the shop.

He began to introduce the radio\'s functions, the volume, the channel transfer, and many more. Everyone showed a bewildered look in their eyes as they observe the mage.

When they heard a piece of beautiful music playing on the radio, everyone gasped in admiration. When they heard a mage\'s discussion on magic manipulation and mana inscription, some of the mages were truly astonished.

The thing in front of them is really miraculous and they could not wait to buy them.

The people began to clamor as the line in front of the shop became longer. But of course, those who stand in line are only those who wanted to buy the radio and some items in the shop.

This scene has thoroughly filled the heart of Link Garret with envy and jealousy. While watching on the side, his covetous eyes watch as people pour out their money while dragging those large boxes from the back of the shop.

"Let\'s go!" he said as he reluctantly turns around and left.

He already has his plan and a crafty smile appears on his face. He wanted it all and those who stand in his way would surely suffer his wrath.

That night, on the ship, Shin Jiao and the higher-ups are in a meeting while they are discussing their future plan.

"I think this town is not that bad. We can set up our first base here. The population is also decent so, this would be a good choice." Hua Xiao suggested.

The rest of the people nodded their heads as they agreed to this suggestion.

"Alright, but we only have a limited number of people. How can we divide them just like that?" Im Jae suddenly said.

"Silly girl, all the Mages are going to stay in this town from now on." Hua Xiao said with a faint smile.

"They are going to develop the Mystique Shop in this place and let it grow. Sister Shinyu is going to be their manager and still their teacher. Once we are able to get a foothold in this town, then we began to spread further." Xiamen Gong added.

Shin Jiao on the side who is listening nodded his head. He also agrees to the plan of these two. Well, he assigned them as the ones in charge of the business so he would just let them handle everything.

While the group continues discussing, someone knocked at the door. The knocking seems a bit hurried which made everyone stop their discussion.

"Enter!" Hua Xiao said with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

A mage guard walks in and then reported to the group.

"Miss Yin has reported that a large number of thieves are currently encroaching towards the shop in the town." The guard reported.

His words made everyone show slight frowns on their faces. Why would the thieves act now? Is this part of the plan of that guy that sent the assassin to attack them?

Everyone has this thought as they continue listening to the report.

Around 100 thieves are going to attack the shop. It would be a bit troublesome. Everyone\'s gaze landed on Shin Jiao who is calmly sitting on the side.

When he felt this gaze, he heaves a helpless sight. How could he not know what these people are thinking? Since he is the strongest of them all and he is their leader, so they are looking at him for his suggestion or even wanted him to take action.

"Sigh… I guess we can only show them that we are not that easy to handle to deter their plans." Shin Jiao said as he stood up.

"Wait… wait! Master Shin, you\'re not doing what I think you are going to do, right?" suddenly Hua Xiao stopped him.

"What do you mean? Of course, I\'m going there to stop them." Shin Jiao shrugged.

"Master Shin… Though your action would stop those thieves, it will put us in a bad position in front of the citizen. They would brand us as tyrants with no regard for the law. If that happens then who would patronize us?"

Upon hearing this, Shin Jiao stops from his track. He is not some strategist or some scheming person. He knew how to scheme a little bit, but his strength relies on his knowledge of crafting, fighting, assassination, spying, and cultivation.

"Alright, what should we do then?" Shin Jiao asked with resignation.

"I will inform the town head. Though we will not act on the surface, we can take action in the shadows." Hua Xiao said with a crafty expression on her beautiful face.

"What do you mean?"

Everyone immediately began to discuss her plan of action.

A large shop in the marketplace of the town lies silently as the night deepens. Many covetous eyes have been eyeing this shop for a long time now as many have seen it attract attention and earn gold endlessly.

Many merchants have a good relationship with the shop and the collaboration has also brought them some fame and fortune. But nothing can compare to what this shop has achieved in the short span of two weeks.

Right at this moment, within the roofs of the buildings in the marketplace, a few shadowy figures could be seen. Not only on the roofs but also within the dark corners and nook of the entire market place one could see dark figures sneaking roundabout.

But this place is empty now. Even the town\'s patrol guards dare not enter this area now.

The plan to steal the stuff inside this shop is going to happen tonight, and these thieves could not wait to get their spoils.

From the glint in their eyes, one can see greed and desire on them.

Everything has already been planned by Master Link. They needed at least two hours to move everything away from this shop. And that time is enough for them to escape without notice as the guards have already been informed and bribed.

This operation would gain them more benefit, so the thieves did not hesitate to agree.

While they waited for the right timing, unknown to them, a figure is already standing on the roof of the shop. The figure is cloaked with a camouflage suit as it sneakily enters the two-story building without anyone noticing.

And as if timed carefully, the thieves within the shadows suddenly moved after the figure enters through an open window.
