Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

It cost Audis 130 pounds to acquire Rosell's "relics."

However, when he submitted the expense report, he claimed he spent 151 pounds, including a 20-pound "handling fee" and a 1-pound fare for hiring a taxi carriage.

Of course, hiring a taxi carriage certainly wouldn't cost 1 pound.

After successfully obtaining the money, Audis generously took a taxi carriage back to the herbalist shop.

However, as soon as he entered, he found two uninvited guests in the herbalist shop: Simon, the owner of the underground arena, and his manager, Gels.

The clerk, Kaina, greeted him and said, "Sir, these two have been waiting for over an hour."

Audis nodded: "I know."

He sat down opposite Simon: "Didn't I tell you? I'm not interested in your cooperation."

Simon smiled with his usual sly expression: "Last time I told you that I knew some relatively secret information, it seems you didn't take it seriously.

"Then let me be more specific, I heard that the Church likes to catch people like you, who have magical abilities."

Audis said coldly, "Do you want me to give you a map of Backlund and tell you how to get to the main cathedrals of the three Churches?

"If you had a decent channel, you would know that I am not afraid of your threats at all."

Simon was slightly stunned, he obviously didn't expect Audis to say that, while judging whether the herbalist shop owner in front of him was lying, he said: "The nobles also need some more exciting entertainment, they in the Queen's borough…"

"Number 155 King's Avenue in the Queen's borough, there is a special arena, right?" Audis sneered, "Comparing intelligence with me?

"I also know that your real name is not Simon, but Dills, and you have a daughter fostered with distant relatives, living at 349 Hillan Avenue in the Saint George borough.

"Because you are afraid that your enemies will come to your door, you have never dared to keep her by your side."

Simon opened his mouth wide, with an unbelievable expression: "Sir… Sir, I didn't mean anything else."

Audis took out his pipe: "Everyone has weaknesses, don't they?"

Simon immediately stood up: "I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, we will leave now, and please… please don't be angry."

Audis pointed to the chair opposite him: "Sit down."

Simon had no choice but to sit down obediently.

Audis lit his pipe, took a puff and said: "I can go and fight a few matches, but we are not cooperating, but you have to serve me.

"After each match, I will pay you one-tenth of the proceeds, in addition to the matches, you have to handle other trivial matters well.

"Also, forge an identity document for me, I don't want to use my real identity to participate in the fighting there."

The arena at 155 King's Avenue, to be precise, is an Extraordinary arena.

The nobles of Ruen appear cautious, elegant, and have manners on the surface, but in fact, they also have a sinister, obscene, extravagant, and violent side.

The arena has always existed in Backlund, but in modern times, this kind of arena has moved underground, gradually disappearing from the public's view.

But the nobles still like to watch life-and-death matches, among which Extraordinary fighting is the most popular among the nobles. Audis heard that the ticket price for just one ticket is as high as 100 pounds.

After advancing to "Combat Scholar", Audis wanted to go there to fight a few matches to hone his actual combat ability.

Before the advancement, Audis knew that his combat power was about the same as a goose, and he tried not to fight with people. Even if he did, he had "Flame Arrow" and a scepter, and ordinary low-sequence Extraordinary people were not his opponents.

If he accidentally provoked an Extraordinary person of the "Middle Sequence", he would simply go to "Mechanical Heart" for help. Of course, such a thing had never happened in the past three years.

But it is different after becoming a "Combat Scholar", he needs to fight with people more to hone his abilities in actual combat.

He had long thought about going to that arena to try his skills, not only to exercise himself, but also to make money.

As for the fact that it was performing for the nobles, Audis had no psychological burden in this regard.

It's just that all along, he lacked a reasonable channel to enter the underground arena in the Queen's borough. He didn't want to associate the matter of going to the arena to fight with "Mr. Gar" and "Chief".

Unexpectedly, Simon sent a good opportunity. When Simon proposed cooperation at the underground arena in the bar before, Audis planned to use this channel to go to the arena in the Queen's borough.

It's just that he certainly wouldn't be manipulated by small people like Simon. At the same time, he knew very well that Simon would definitely not give up, today's meeting was inevitable, so Audis made some preparations in advance and grasped the initiative in this matter.

Simon was very happy when he heard that there was a turning point in this matter: "No problem!"

Even one-tenth is a considerable income.

As the owner of the underground arena in the bar, he looks very glamorous, with an income of several hundred pounds a night when there is a match, but this kind of gray income must have a backer, otherwise there will be constant troubles.

A large part of the income, Simon has to give to his backer.

Without exception, a first, a first, a first, an inner, a content, one in, one look!

The income from serving Audis, he can put in his own pocket, and he also has the opportunity to meet some upper-class people in Backlund.

After Simon promised to report on the progress of the matter tomorrow, he politely said goodbye to Audis.

Audis looked at his pocket watch and said to Kaina, "Let's go to the backyard, today I will teach you how to process the leg bones of the mutated flamingo."

Processing those leg bones doesn't require much skill, Kaina can do it.

…

South Bridge area, 22 Tuthill Street.

Hugh Dilcha returned to her residence, and to her surprise, Forsi was already up and writing furiously at her desk.

"Hugh, you're back." Forsi looked up and asked with a smile, "Anything new at that mysterious gathering?"

"It was a very peculiar gathering." Hugh hung her coat on the hanger and casually asked, "Are you rushing to meet a deadline today?"

The smile on Forsi's face disappeared instantly: "Yes, the manuscript is due tomorrow, and I've only written the beginning."

Hugh nodded slowly, she knew that was the case, otherwise Forsi wouldn't have gotten up so early.

"Hearing some strange stories now can heal my anxious heart." Forsi turned her chair towards Hugh: "Tell me quickly, what magical things happened at that gathering?"

"It wasn't that magical." Hugh sat down opposite Forsi with a strong desire to confide: "The convener of the gathering actually promised to protect Byron…"

She briefly described Byron's investigation and the conversation between Byron and "Chief".

This is a very peculiar place. They have attended so many Extraordinary gatherings, and no initiator of any Extraordinary gathering would make such a promise.

"He must have justice in his heart!" Forsi commented.
