Chapter 127 The house of Greed

I decided to read the rest of the diary later and search to see if there are anymore useful documents. I looked around at the many books scattered on the floor and most of them were religious texts but I did find one labelled 'Weaknesses and Traits of a Werewolf' but after reading it, I realized it was just him testing a few of the other werewolves to see if they have any of the traditional weaknesses of were real. It detailed how he used silver bullets, wolves bane and a few other dangerous stuff to harm the werewolves but all of them failed and hurt them like it would a normal person. The more I read, the angrier I got and I had even accidentally reduced the book to ash with hellfire due to my rage. I continued to angrily search the room for anything useful and I soon started searching the drawers for anything. I opened the first drawer and inside I found two white parchment wrapped with golden string. I opened the first one and realized that it was a map of the world, or rather a map of the continent, showing the ten cities, the six towns and the vast expanse of the forests that covered most of the continent. The six towns were circled with a red marker as well as another circled area in a part of the forest. I had no idea what these markers meant but they seemed ominous for some reason. I unwrapped the second parchment and I realized that it was also a map of the continent but this one was different. Different colored markers were used to circle the cities, excluding city A, city C and city E. The towns remained untouched except for town O which was shaded red.

City B, F, H and J were circled in yellow, City D and I were circled green and city G was circled in brown. Looking at the map, I realized something, City B, F, H and J were all the cities that were under the protection of the four Angels remaining on Earth. So going by that logic, the colour green should represent one of the demon houses and judging by the fact that Dracos was apart of the house of Greed, then green must represent the house of Greed. Which means that Greed controls both City D and I, but which house controls city G?

"I guess I'll find out tomorrow." I said to myself, rolled up both parchment and placed them beside the Diary. Hopeful, I opened the other drawers but was left disappointed, all the drawers were filled with booze or wine stains. This guy was a really heavy drinker.

"Tsk, I guess this is enough....but....how did he make these maps?" I randomly asked myself. The only way I can think of is if he went around the entire continent which would take months, based on the distance and dangers of the continent. So the only way he could get this information is if someone told him, and the only person that could have done that was someone from the house of Greed. But that also poses the question, how did they get this information?

'Those bastards are spying on us.' I thought angrily to myself as I clenched my fist, causing my veins to bulge but I calmed myself down.

'So these guys from the house of Greed have been spying on us for who knows how long? This is bad...but, it can also be an opportunity. ' I thought to myself, if they have been spying on us for who knows how long, they might have all kinds of information that could be helpful to me and my family.

'But how exactly am I going to get this information out of them, the fact that they have this much information must mean they have a stealth skill or trait? Oh, since they are from the house of Greed maybe I can trade information for goods or something?' I thought to myself but gave up as I didn't know much about the house of Greed.....but maybe Paul does.

I decided to head downstairs towards where the others were having their little celebration. As I got closer, I could smell barbecue and alchohol, I could also hear the sound of howling and fighting. Worried, I quickly decended the stairs in a flash and arrived on the ground floor in less than a minute. I immediately dashed outside and finally saw what was happening, two fully transformed werewolves were fighting against each other, biting and slashing into each others flesh while everyone else howled and cheered and ate barbecue.

'So this is what werewolves consider fun.' I thought to myself as I saw the two werewolves fighting each other with all they got.
