The Ancient Genes

Chapter 726 - Arriving In Ishtar

The matter came to a close in the Scarlet House.

But, most people didn't have a good look on their faces. These were mostly the people of Allied families who were supporting Old man Sun.

This was because, even though the Scarlet belonged to the Association's side, the Lady of the Scarlet House was an Ovens. There was no way that their relations with the Union were bad.

So, it was obvious whom the Union would side on this matter with.

It was very likely that the Old man Sun would have the blade pointed towards his neck by the end of this matter.

Meeting Hall

Everyone left the place, and the last ones left were the Lord and the Lady themselves.

"Don't cause too much trouble. Or else even I won't be able to protect you," The Scarlet Lord spoke as he got up to leave.

"Don't worry, my dear. I will keep it in my mind," Talia calmly replied.

There seemed to be an odd atmosphere between the two, but it was hard to tell what was odd about them.

With the Scarlet Lord gone, Talia sat there in the empty place with a frown on her face.

"Contact this new Patriarch of the Yule Family, we don't know what intentions he has. But, if he wants to cooperate with us, then it's fine. If not, we will get him out of our way," She muttered with a serious look on her face, and then got up to leave.

She only needed control, it didn't matter who helped her in that.

The loss of Hank was unfortunate though. He was a good fighter, and Supreme as well. Unlike Patriarch Yule who was useless even as a Grandmaster Tier Mage. That guy only had eyes on money and women. He was the lowest of trash present around.

One could clearly see Talia's personality from this. To her everything was usable, even when her own people died, she had no plans on revenge. Hell, she instead had plans to ask the killer to join her.

She was truly a scary woman.

…

Express Station, Ishtar.

"Finally here…" Eren looked around the streets of Ishtar. He was really excited.

Why would one not be?

Ishtar was a dreamland for many young men.

"Sir, are you on a tour here? I can act as your guide."

It hadn't even been a minute when a woman wearing revealing clothing walked upto Eren and slid her finger across his cheek.

"Umn..sorry miss...but we are busy.." A voice sounded from behind as Axle walked towards them and freed Eren. He once had a bad evening, and after that, his heart and his little brother had steeled their resolve not to be swayed by any such thing ever again.

"That's a pity.." The lady sighed, and then walked away to find another customer.

Eren forced a smile on his face as he looked at Axel. But, his figure froze when he saw all the girls giving him a disdainful look.

"No, it's not like this. I can explain.." He approached Rias, trying to explain.

"Why do you need to explain to me?" Rias asked him with an odd look, and then walked off.

Eren stood there without a reply in his mouth.

"Come on, if you want a 3D one. You will have to work harder. Or you can be a 2D worshipper. You can even build a Harem of your choice in my world.." Axel let out a smirk on his face.

But, Eren only gave him a look.

"You will even lose Erina if you keep pretending to be like this." He patted Axel's shoulder and walked off trying to catch up to others.

"Wait! What did you mean by that?!! Are you doubting my loyalty to Mio-chan! How dare you compare a boorish girl to my Mio-chan?!!" Axel chased after him in anger.

…

On the other side..

Wilson had already separated from the group as soon as they arrived in Ishtar. He had held himself back all this while, but not anymore.

She was so close, he could almost feel it.

'Where is this address?' He continued to search for the place, and a frown appeared on his face when the address brought him to the red light district.

There were women all around the street calling out to guys passing by, there were even men bare chested calling out to women or even other men.

"Hey handsome..how about spending the night with me? I will offer you some good discounts as well." A woman suddenly blocked Wilson's path.

"I am here looking for someone." Wilson shook his head, politely. Everyone had their fair share of trouble in their life. Even if you couldn't help, but feel something bad about someone, the least you could do was not judge them on the basis of it. That's the reason you had a brain with your heart as well.

"Hmmn.." The woman saw the address in Wilson's phone, and asked in surprise, "You want to go there? Are you sure you can afford the prices?"

Wilson frowned as he looked at her.

"I mean that place is quite expensive," The woman said as she looked at Wilson from top to bottom.

Even though he didn't appear shabby, he didn't appear filthy rich as well.

"You don't need to care about that, just tell me the address.." Wilson just took out all the money he had in his wallet and stuffed it into her hand.

The woman was suddenly dumbfounded by his reckless behavior, but still led him to the place.

Even though Wilson knew about Anna's situation, he still didn't feel good about this place. He knew how she was, and she definitely wouldn't be able to see people being wronged. And, this place, it most probably forced people to sell themselves. After all, somethings were common knowledge around.

He walked inside the place, and asked at the reception for Anna.

The woman there frowned on hearing that. It wasn't the first time that people had come asking for their Young Lady's service only to be beaten to death, if they didn't leave quietly. Follow current s on N(o)vᴇl(F)ire

"My name is Wilson Scarlet.."

"Wilson?" The woman's eyes widened in surprise as a pleasant smile appeared on her face.

"Just give me a second, I will immediately inform her." She immediately took the phone, and dialed the number.

"Sir, please head to Room 201 on the 9th Floor."
