Chapter 223 - The Slughorn Scandal



This wasn\'t because Eren was satisfied with the amount of Extols he made. Scrooge felt all the money he had collected so far was still not as much as he would like to be under his control.

However, he had another reason for spreading the visual content of this act. He wanted to sully the Slughorn name and damage its reputation. And what better way to do it than sell it to the degenerate rankers who would spread the captured content like an unstoppable wildfire.

Eren didn\'t just want to kill or put Sienna through a tough time as a form of his revenge. He wanted the entire Slughorn household to pay for the hell he had been forced to endure in the past timeline.

The Sluhorns needed to be brought down from their high pedestal. And publicising this act was the beginning of that plan.

Eren wanted to create a potion industry that would rise within the Edinburgh kingdom. But the potioneering market had been extremely saturated because of the big players like the Slughorns that had hogged the majority of sales and distribution chains.

If the foundation of the Slughorns were to be shaken, the house would face some loss on the market. And that would allow small-time potioneers like him to breathe a bit easier.

Eren had been coordinating with Jack for this very reason. Unlike the previous timeline in which he was prevented from making a living as a potion master, Eren wanted to dominate the kingdom\'s market one day with his potions and make a killing out of it.

Eren knew that this ill-publicity would not be enough to cause a huge loss in the market for the Slughorns. But it was a start. And this was just a bonus he had planned. The main price was the scar he\'d leave on Sienna\'s conscience.

Soon the expansion pack was also over. And the participants were made to stop the act, lest Sienna becomes too much of a dead fish. It would defeat the purpose of torture if the subject stopped feeling pain.

Eren then handed the copied recordings, which were pebbles with runic inscriptions. These were all F-Rank artefacts of the three-star grade. Eren had already included the amount he had to put in buying the artefacts when he sold the recordings to his bidding audience. So he wasn\'t at a loss.

Eren knew nobody would recognize Sienna that easily. And he had made sure to keep her identity under wraps, lest the participants get chicken feet and run away from the bidding venue.

The butcher knew nobody would even dare to touch Sienna had they known who they were literally fu*cking with. This is why he gave her hallucinogens so that her thoughts would become too distorted for her to identify herself. And instead of keeping things completely wrapped, he just revealed enough information to make more bucks out of it.

Eren knew Sienna\'s recording would get so famous that it would be analyzed repetitively by a lot of experts. The participants who had won the bid and actively ravaged Sienna up ran the risk of getting their identity exposed even when they wore masks.

If that happened, the Slughorn household would make sure that all the degenerate rankers who had taken part in the event would pay with their lives and more. They would do this by actively hunting them throughout the kingdom.

Eren knew that two more people would also get hunted apart from the degenerate rankers. They were Edward Jener and Ron Damien AKA Ronny. He had already taken care of Edward by killing him off first. So that was an almost dead end. And he was going to burn his Ron Damien identity after this event.

The Slughorns weren\'t the only people Eren had to worry about. He knew he would be equally hated by the degenerate participants for painting targets on their backs. While being hunted by the Slughorns, they would try to hunt him with all their might. So Ron Damien had to disappear the way Edward Jener had been.

Eren sold all the recordings and bid farewell to his audience. Then he called Ron and Dino up and ordered them to do another of his bidding:

"Sell the remaining recordings on the black market. Make sure you sell it under the tag of Slughorn Scandal to make the buyers aware of what they were buying.

Don\'t use your regular contacts while selling the recordings in bulk and make sure you stay anonymous. This would be a one-time transaction. So try to get the most out of the deal. You\'d get a 30% cut from this."

Eren handed Ron the recordings in a storage device and instructed him to proliferate the recordings to blow the Slughorn Scandal out of proportion. This was a countermeasure if the degenerate rankers somehow came to know about the real identity of the subject and decided to sit on their recordings.

Ron didn\'t want a 30% cut from the deal he knew to be too risky to continue. But he also knew that vile creatures like Eren and Ronny shouldn\'t be provoked. Especially when he was enslaved to them. So he sighed and nodded his head.

Eren also told the berserker boys that had turned into his goons to take Sienna, Luna, and Vivi from this site and drop them somewhere safer. The butcher wanted the ladies alive so that they could feel the agonies exacted on them by relivering them every time they closed their eyes.

Eren told Reen to destroy the entire house with her lightning element AoE she had copied from him. He didn\'t want a refund of his booking amount from the city administration anyway.

Reen\'s mana signature was convoluted. It would make it near impossible for any investigation team to use any historian or tracking related spells at the site.

Eventually, because of Reen\'s spell, the rankers nearby would come to check out the place. So he left the place with Reen as soon as she was done executing her spell.

\'The Slughorn Scandal would become even more famous than the Recluse Ra*pist Incident. Hehe!\'

Eren thought amusedly to himself as he travelled further away from another of his crime scenes.
