"You can ask around, and then you can rest assured."

"Here are our credentials."

Duva Gureggrevsky stuffed a bunch of items into the arms of the Hearthstone Witch standing beside Ivita. She gave him a glare. Was he treating her like a maid?

Wilson flipped through the credentials that Ivita had passed to him, then nodded at Ivita. "My lord, I’ve heard of the Quartermaster. His credentials are valid. We can trust him."

On the street, a smile appeared on Duva Gureggrevsky’s face.

Ivita said to Duva Gureggrevsky, "We’ve had a good chat."

"I also trust your professional integrity."

"But how much are you planning to make out of helping us?"

Duva Gureggrevsky was taken aback, but quickly laughed and said, "Because the investigation of the Valji family’s hidden assets and as much protection of their existing assets as possible requires a lot of manpower, there will certainly be many conflicts, even property disputes and material disputes. I need to use the kind of influence only an influential person would have, to resolve these issues."

"Therefore, in normal cases, for this kind of work, I would need to take a cut of ten to fifteen percent."

The Hearthstone Witch was shocked. "Fifteen percent?"

"That’s crazy."

"You guys are just swindlers. Just for chatting with us, you want to take away fifteen percent? I think giving you a hundred gold pounds is already a lot."

The eyes of the Hearthstone Witch began to roll, and she suddenly came up with a brilliant idea. Turning to Ivita, she said, "Let Wilson release the mental coercion on the Duck Feather Captain. That will free up a target for mental coercion, and then we can control this scammer with mental coercion."

Duva Gureggrevsky immediately broke out in a sweat and took half a step back. Only now did he understand that these people, who could defeat the Valji family in a single battle, were not kind-hearted individuals.

Although he had mentally prepared himself, he hadn’t anticipated that the Hearthstone Witch would be so malicious.

Duva Gureggrevsky exclaimed in distress, "I also have a wizard who does periodic checks of my mental state..."

Ivita interrupted the Hearthstone Witch, "Let him finish."

Wilson, a fourth-generation Vampire, also thought she was going overboard. Although he was the one with the ability of mental coercion, he had never thought it could be used without scruples.

Duva Gureggrevsky wiped the sweat from his brow, looking relieved, and then said to Ivita, "I haven’t finished yet. I won’t ask for a cut from you, just give me six hundred gold pounds. This money can be used to pay wages so I don’t lose money, and any remaining will be used for future likely injuries sustained by the professionals, as their medical expenses."

Ivita, the Hearthstone Witch, Wilson, and Davina all looked at him.

Ivita furrowed his brows. "Why? We’ve never met before, have we?"

Duva Gureggrevsky nodded. "Indeed, but I have a grudge against the Valji family. I revel in their misfortune."

"This family has repeatedly harmed the interests of my employer and myself. They’re exceedingly arrogant, although not yet a large smuggling family on Cross Island, they still have the airs of one. They’re insensitive to the feelings of others."

"I’ve sworn that if there’s ever a chance for me to take revenge on this family, I’ll seize it."

"And now, you are my opportunity."

Ivita nodded. After a discussion with the Hearthstone Witch and Wilson, they decided to trust him.

So, five minutes later, Ivita said to Duva Gureggrevsky, "We hope our cooperation will be enjoyable."

Duva Gureggrevsky snapped his fingers. "You and I have a common enemy."

"Our collaboration will be enjoyable. But in the future, if you want to use my team again to help you swallow up the assets of others, you’ll need to pay according to the rules. Just this once, I’m doing it for free."

Duva Gureggrevsky emphasized nervously.

Ivita nodded.

About half an hour later, they arrived at a rectangular manor that was quite large in area.

The extent of its grounds was perhaps the combined area of three or four buildings on Ivita’s previous Earth.

But it wasn’t high, the tallest building was only two stories.

There were many small pirates loitering around the manor, seemingly looking for leftovers to partake in.

But as Ivita and Duva Gureggrevsky arrived, bringing with them three hundred people, of which two hundred were ordinary people, and more than forty were first grade professionals.

The arrival of these troops cleared out the nearby petty pirates, sending away those who wanted to partake in the spoils.

A middle-aged petty pirate was shoved aside by two strong men. But he didn’t seem to take it, protesting, "Everyone’s allowed to wander around here, why can’t we take a few laps around here? You’re being too overbearing."

"This is too much."

"And the Valji family has so much property, can you guys really take it all? You’re so overbearing, aren’t you afraid of your children being..."

The next moment, the man was abruptly struck in the back of the head by one of Duva Gureggrevsky’s men with a Civility Cane. His head immediately swelled, and he fell into unconsciousness.
