Inside a bar or pub the seller of information is an open secret in a city neighborhood.
Gilda and the bartender walked to the back of the bar door and entered an ordinary looking room and a brick was removed and a secret entrance appeared to the bottom. Walking down the stairs shortly to the room there many people chose documents but their necks and strange collars with runes. They were slaves who were given special curses.
Without looking at the children again. Gilda was invited into a room there was a man with a black face mask. Gilda uses appraisal skills.
‘ assassin ’
‘ dark wind ’
‘ level 4 end ’
As strong as low-level nobles. With the affinity of wind magic .unik. Strong enough than an average assassin even his potential was higher than Zora's.
“ what information do you want to buy sir? ”
“ state of south central region of kaspian city ”
“ oh it's easy problem briefly ”
The man walked onto a shelf there was a roll of distinguished rolls. Before long a scroll was carried by the man.
“ well this information has price 10 gold ”
“ agree ” after pay Gilda read the information in it.
In the information that Gilda read 30% of private farmland owned marquis destroyed and damaged to stabilize the food reserves marquis pulled all stock in the market suddenly. Make food scarcity. The location of the damaged location is also mentioned. Not satisfied with the information Gilda intends to buy again.
“ just this? ”
“ of course not master but the next information will be a little more expensive ”
One by one they bought them. The second roll containing food reserves of the Caspian city also burned. Only 50 Caspian food reserves remain. And it affects the entire southern region. The location of the food warehouse that is still intact and which has been destroyed by fire is mentioned in addition to increasing banditry in the outer region of the caspian. The target that is often attacked by bandits is the delivery of foodstuffs.
The third scroll contained a special movement of a group to destabilize the south, the marquis himself had given orders to eradicate the bandits but the bandits only attacked and destroyed without making a post or headquarters. They're like hit and run.
5 thousand middle troops were ordered to eradicate and search for the bandits. As well as handling fire cases in food storage warehouses. After seeing the third scroll Gilda understood and was enough to make her next move. Then Gilda decided to buy high-level information related to marquis directly.
“ I want high-level information of course price does not matter specific related business fields and locations owned by marquis and informationsupportnya ”
“ hohoho looks like you are the one who attracted mr ”
After mentioning the price and getting paid the man walked to another place there was a place locked by the sir after the open magic was taken a scroll. Submitted to Gilda. Did not wait long Gilda read information related to marquis. The results are as Gilda expected although expensive the information can be useful.
After finishing Gilda was escorted back to the bar. Before long Gilda decided to return while carrying a scroll of information. In the morning 3 people on horseback running fast towards the kaspian city along the way can be found various traces of battle even burning files were also found.
It looks like the chaos that is happening is more than the information that is there. Gilda reached the city wall there disguised herself as a commoner. After a strict inspection and paying the guild a heavy price, it immediately entered the city. Looking for an inn that is not too rama book 4 rooms. One for him one for two war slaves one for black rose later.
Gilda chose this inn was because this inn already had a hidden sign of black rose, the sign was hidden in the sign of the inn name only Gilda knew about it. With a small shape emits a special aroma. The scent was a small cuff soaked in black rose oil.
At night Gilda took the small cuff unnoticed by everyone. Black Rose would know if Gilda was already in town if the cuff was no longer on the inn sign. By morning 6 black rose men had entered Gilda's room and Gilda told them to rest in the room that had been booked.
The morning after breakfast two war slaves were ordered to gather information from mercenaries or adventurer guilds. Gilda was in the room of 6 people berlut in front of her. Insulation magic has been installed.
All plans went smoothly only far from the target, the damage has not been significant even only one city around the Caspian city that was affected Gilda's goal is the entire southern region must be affected.
Gilda then asked to increase the intensity of the operation. And the guild will be here for another week. Black Rose's night had already disappeared in the dark again. This time the operation was to recruit more bandits, poisoning the troops that were eradicating the soldiers. Gilda herself made the issue even hotter. With accurate information the citizens easily find evidence.
On the first night there was no incident but the issue of failed harvests of bandit attacks spread to make many residents worried. The second night there begins to be burglaries and robberies escalate in the city. Every time it was chased by the city guards it would disappear otherwise the city guards were found dead. This happened until the third day even the casualties from the city guards increased. The second day was only about dozens of people the third day reached hundreds even nearly a thousand.
Guard tightened even every time there was open space there would be a tent of city warriors. On the fourth day of the morning, there was news of a large fire on the farm and there was nothing left of the soldiers who were assigned to extinguish the fire with the residents found dead. During the day people are increasingly panicking even the price of needs in the market is increasing. Soon prices soared there was a large fire at the region's largest food reserve storage site that days before continued to be filled to the end but is now burned out.
According to the information from the scroll lived two more locations but with a smaller capacity. Afternoon fires at two locations simultaneously occurred. Now more fun because 3000 high soldiers who guard the location died. Two places total casualties 6000 soldiers. Half the city's army is dead. Even the case of bandits outside the city has not been resolved.
The fifth day of information from other cities also came that every merchant entourage was attacked by bandits whose land was also damaged. It didn't take long after the infromation came in. A majestic figure in luxurious clothes and guarded by a group of kuan soldiers patrolling inside the city. The disguised Gilda saw that from a distance.
Seeing the people kneeling and hearing whispers of whispers turned out that the marquis had intervened. This time the marquis's losses were not small. According to Gilda's estimation the marquis' wallet had been torn enough. Paying assassins, buying basic necessities, deploying soldiers, retirement money of dead soldiers, repair damage incurred, income decline even though taxes are raised, loss of planting capital is scorched.
Day six thefts and robberies are becoming more and more. Because the soldiers are already reduced by half. Making a lot of gaps, according to reports of the bandits who are paid they have stored a lot of treasure and food needs can even last for the next 5 years. The target of the destruction of the staple is finished next to attack the teeth of the other marquis teeth.6 groups of large bandits guided by black rose.
Invaded into every marquis business. Even the secret slaves that the marquis kept were all released, also given some gold. Day six was really chaotic the sound of fighting was heard even in the narrow alley. Shouts were heard, the bandits themselves did hit and run, to minimize casualties. As the sun appeared various points appeared the smoke of the former battle soared high. Bodies are scattered where. This afternoon was even quiet. There is no activity. The bandits also disappeared overnight. The task was done the loot was already divided they immediately went with great results.
Robbery proceeds from the light and dark marquis business are divided in two. Between black rose and the bandits but of course all belonging to black rose goes into Gilda's pocket.
