The Young Master in the Shadows

Chapter 207: Scamming Hana

After making sure that all the hounds around the mansion were taken care of, Lily and her sisters began to infiltrate the mansion through the windows while keeping wary of traps.

After entering and to their surprise, the mansion was completely normal. It was a typical luxurious Mansion with expensive furniture. The walls were all decorated with rare paintings. Nothing out of the ordinary at all.

There were a few maids and servants collapsed in the kitchen and in a few corridors… but that was the effect of the poison… They were all semi-players… How could Troy afford an entire staff of semi-players? Lily felt strange. She quickly surveyed the whole ground floor but ended up finding nothing of interest. That was when Cora contacted her.

“We found Troy’s room on the second floor.” She said, so Lily quickly climbed there.

Her sisters who found nothing on the upper floor also had already started tearing the place apart when she entered… It was a full suite inside the mansion. A sleeping room with a study with their own bathroom. It was as if Troy didn’t want to be disturbed up here.

“Anything interesting?” Lily asked.

“Just some usual business letters and work-related documents… This guy is casting a big network and businesses.” Cora who was checking the computer said.

“The safe here has some nice trinkets…” Ivy added as she began filling her brand new storage ring. Lily looked and nodded,

“Take everything in there, we don’t know which thing is an artifact,” Lily said she wished she had an appraisal skill like her young master.

“I found some letters here… They are addressed to Levi von Zwei.” Eve said after going through some drawers,

“Show me.” Lily quickly checked them…. They were drafts for some letters containing a lot of bootlicking with reports about some experiments… They are beginning to get results, Troy was requesting increased funding and more experiment subjects. He wanted subjects with bloodlines for better results… Most of the letters were the same with different boot licking statements… Was Troy trying different begging methods?

Lily frowned… from this It could become clear that Troy was working with the Von Zwei family on something… This information needs to be transported to the young master, but first, they had a job to do.

“Let’s go to the basement,” Lily said as she stored the letters, making the girls swallow and then nod. All of them ignored that place on purpose and chose to do the upper floor first.

They had a feeling that they would not like what they will find there.

Gary was shaking while waiting for his grandfather to scold him. He had just caused the family to lose a huge commission fee because he gave Victor the Z ticket.

Harvey said nothing though. He just sighed.

“Don’t worry about it.” He said after a few minutes of pondering. “This would make a good advertisement… Always think like a businessman and learn from your mistakes.” Harvey said as he looked at Victor. He was wondering if he was his grandson? No. He shook his head. He had secretly tested Theodore and he was not his son…. How many men did Ann sleep with was a mystery that he didn’t want to solve?

But still, he couldn’t stop liking Victor more and more. He reminded him of himself when he was young… He also had a feeling that Victor was executing multiple schemes at the same time, but he couldn’t tell what they were.

He was wondering about something else too. What was so interesting about that girl Hana for Victor and that sneaky Von Zwei fighting over her… That question made him Very curious.

Hana was guided by two guards to Victor’s room, With the curse placed on her, she couldn’t use any of her powers.

Victor, who secretly returned to his room, arrogantly paid for her using the family card which would surely be confiscated after today’s expenses.

“I knew it was you!” He told her as he checked her body, making her cover the important parts under the semi-transparent clothes with her hands as she glared at him.

“You are that young master from before.” She said coldly. She remembered him from Golden Waterfall town.

“And you were that hot driver. Did your young master get bored and sell you off?” Victor asked, making her shake her head but say nothing, She didn’t want to talk about Sebastian now… The only thing she wanted to know was who was the bastard who drugged her then sold her here… She was also worried about Victor’s actions… He seemed to be some kind of a super pervert. That’s what she got from his actions earlier.

“You don’t have to worry that much. Jokes aside,” Victor suddenly became serious after the guards who brought her here left and closed the door, “I didn’t expect to get my hands on another Von Richter so fast. Why else do you think I paid that much money for you? For your beauty? My wives are 1000 times prettier than you. ” He said, making her look at him again with shock this time.

“How do you know that?” She asked in a harsh voice, she didn’t eat well in the last few days.

“I go to school with one of them. And beauty is a subjective matter, I am not saying you are ugly, on the contrary, but…”

“I meant about my family. How did you know that I am …A Von Richter.” She whispered as she wished to kick this pervert's ass.

“Oh… Well, I know many things… Like how your beloved younger brother is now with a Von Zwei fake blood on that balcony… He was the one bidding for you earlier.” Victor dodged the question professionally by distracting her,

“You are lying.” She said as she looked out of the balcony… She could see Sebastian who was looking back at her with angry eyes and the man in black sitting behind him. Was that man a Fake blood? She wondered not realizing that Sebastian was now watching as Victor started spanking Hana’s butt.

“I am not lying,” Victor stated as he adjusted his illusion to make Hana’s image sit on his lap … She was smiling as she enjoyed his petting.

“Don’t be so stiff, I just want you to be my maid. And I am not an enemy of your family. If I were you would be on the selling floor again with a new price tag.” He said,

She just glared at him. She would never be this pervert's maid.

“You are lucky I was the one who bought you… If that man would have won the bidding…” Victor made a slitting throat sign with his thumb. “I am sure that young Sebastian has no Idea about your family. And that he was working for your enemies at the moment.” He added, Her illusion was not blushing as Victor bit her ear,

“How do you know Sebastian’s name?” She asked, Her first priority was to protect her little brother.

“Let me show you.” Victor suddenly said and used his disguise skill to replicate both Sebastian’s and the man in black’s status… He was showing her the info, with few adjustments

“Your younger brother is amazing… Can you imagine someone with that level in his age group… I even suspect that he is an old man, especially with that eternal Martial arts skill.” Victor said, with a smile, he was considering showing her Sebastian's spider porn but decided against it. He would save it for later in case his first try failed.

Hana stayed silent… She was in shock. As far as she knew Sebastian was level 23. A part of her wanted to call Victor a liar, but she knew about that eternal skill as her family had memories of it… That’s why her mission was to infiltrate the eternal sect. Her family hoped she could get this skill, but she failed to locate its holder… That's what she thought until now.

Certain things began to fit in place, like how her master always shrugged when she called Sebastian her younger brother and how her master forbade Sebastian from bathing with her, despite her being ok with it…

He must have known! Sebastian always told her that he was older than he looked, but she always took it as a kid bragging… She met Sebastian one and half years ago when he returned to the sect from a mission… She was amazed by his bravery at that time but didn’t consider the fact that she was at the sect for 10 years and never met him before.

She was so preoccupied with Sebastian that she failed to comprehend how amazing Victor’s appraisal was to be able to get this info… She would understand after she calmed down in a few days.

It took her a few minutes to think. She thought about that man Evan, He had a Von Zwei token… And had that Ghoul Class, she knew from her family's memories what it meant. And the most important thing was the Fake blood effect. This was the effect of an artifact that was stolen from her family… An artifact that had been used against them ever since.

She knew that Victor was telling the truth as she could feel some ripples from Evan’s bloodline across the auction hall. She has pure blood after all and could feel him if she focused hard enough. Thankfully he could not feel her blood, as she had her bloodline sealed.

“You are not selling me nor killing me. What do you want from me then?” She asked coldly as she watched Zena succeed in getting one of the other girls.

“I want you!” Victor said as he took out a contract. “I don’t care how you got here, but you are now in my hands. You will be my slave from now on, and in exchange, I will keep your little secret… Imagine what would happen to your sect if the world knew they hid you.” He said as he adjusted his illusion… Hana was now kissing him… Sebastian was about to jump out of the balcony.

“You even know about my sect!” She said, then remembered that he saw the Token on Sebastian’s description. Her sect was hidden deep in the mountains, and they were forbidden from exposing it. She glared at Victor then at the contract with some hesitation…

“Imagine what would happen if I were to return you to Sebastian right now… That man would surely find out about you, then extract your bloodline and eat your flesh to extend his lifespan. He would also probably eat Sebastian who would try to save your life… “ Victor said, making her frown.

“What do you propose?” She asked,

“I have a way to hide you. And although I can’t guarantee Sebastian's safety 100% I can promise that I will make sure that his life will not be in any danger... You just have to sign the contract, then act as if you fell in love with me… That would make Sebastian lose hope of getting you back and that man would not harm him, he seemed to have taken him as a disciple.” Victor said, making her glare at him and then out at Sebastian who was talking angrily to the man in black while that man was patiently explaining some things to him… He didn’t seem to be planning to hurt him.

“You have 5 minutes to decide,” Victor said as he casually bid on the last girl. In the end, he also lost it to Zena who shot him some angry glares for raising the price. He didn’t care, he already had a lot of girls, and didn’t mind losing some who didn’t have rare classes. And being with Zena was not bad for them… The player’s alliance would be the best place for weak players after the reckoning.

Finally, the two awakened girls ended up in Zena’s hand with one normal girl. The other three girls were taken by Troy who bid a lot for them.

“Your time is over,” Victor looked back at Hana and said as he glared at her. “Shall I sell you to the Von Zwei family or will you work for me?” He asked, pressuring her. She was not thinking straight, and he was further using that to disorient her and make her sign the contract.

“Add a condition not to make me fight against my sect and family members… And that you will keep my secret.” Hana said at last as she watched Theta and Margret who were sitting silently on the side. “And also…. that you will never force me to do any perverted things.”

“As long as you don’t want me to,” Victor said, making her glare at him again… As if she would ever do that.

“Also include your promise about Sebastian too…. I don't want him to be hurt ” She said,

“Ok… I will make sure that Evan never kills him.” Victor added… He does not need to make sure. He was pretty sure. Sebastian was a scion.

“Fine then… I will sign.” She said,

“Then it’s a deal. ” Victor said as he finalized changes to the contract, making her surprised, she didn’t expect him to accept this fast. Wasn't he a pervert?

She hesitated for an entire minute reading the contract three times before she signed it with her blood as Victor urged her.

“You are mine now.” He said as he packed the contract, making her look away angrily then surprised when Victor took off his coat and wrapped it around her carefully… Ah, she remembered that she was practically naked.

“Stay here and watch… If my guess is correct that man would come here after the auction, make sure to do as I tell you.” Victor added as he began to explain some things to her while stealthily using his ring to move to the lower room again to keep an eye on the idiot in there.

Sebastian on the other hand had just watched her show Victor her body before he covered her with his coat after spanking her again and telling her that it's not the time for that… Was Hana a pervert? Why was she the one harassing that young master? He was about to go crazy.

Thankfully Evan had told him what happened to those who created trouble here, so he didn’t dare to do anything... He will go scold that adulteress later.... No, she was being forced... He convinced himself.

Hana on the other hand, just sat down and said nothing pretending to listen to Victor, whom she thought was still sitting beside her. She was looking toward Sebastian who was looking back at her angrily. Why was he this upset? His eyes were very unnatural as if his lover was being taken in front of him by another man.
