Chapter 47:- Meeting someone from yesterday

⟪ Ding! The host has completed the third option. ⟫

⟪ Option 3: - Investigate the cause and kill the culprit. Reward: - (5000+ justice value, all of the host's stats will be increased by [50+], further rewards will be determined based on how quickly the host is able to kill the culprit.) ⟫

William closed his eyes in satisfaction feeling the warm energy surging throughout his body. He enjoyed the feeling of getting stronger. Especially his mana, which had reached a new height.

Sitting opposite facing Will, Laura felt the sudden change in William. Rosie might not sense it as her levels are restricted, but she was able to sense it. She could sense the sudden increase in William's mana.

"How did your mana suddenly increase?" Laura curiously asked. Inwardly she already had thought of an answer.

"I just added my extra stats points to my mana." William lied. It would be stupid of him to tell his biggest secret to anyone. It's not that he did not trust, William just wants to keep some things a secret.

"By the way, Big sister you promised that you're going to show me around me the city." Elena reminded Rosie about the promise. She was indirectly asking Rosie to take her out to play.

How can Rosie not understand what she was hinting at? She gently smiled and then put a piece of steak in her mouth. "Of course. Now that Laura and William have taken care of the assassins, we have nothing to worry about. We can go out and play."

"William do you want to come with us?" Rosie wished to take William with them. She felt it would be extra fun to have Will with them.

"Big sister, why are you inviting this pervert with us? This pervert absolutely cannot come with us." Elena angrily glared at William.

Sigh!

"Whatever. I am also not interested in going with this girl." William then purposely stared at her chest. Elena also looked down and saw her flat chest.

"Yours looks even flatter than mine." Even though William said it in a low tone, everyone was able to hear his words.

"You....." Like an angry and fierce kitten, the dragon princess stood up to throw her chair at this pervert's face but Rosie stopped her in time.

"Elena, why don't you calm down? You're only 15, you still have a lot of time to grow." Rosie's gentle words seem to have lowered the high temperature. The angry kitten was still glaring at the Incubus King. She reluctantly sat down but did not stop glaring at him.

"Will, why don't you join them? I am sorry but I cannot spend time with you today." Due to what has happened in the last 24 hours, Laura has summoned all four dukes for a long meeting.

The empress had given each four big islands to 4 royal families. Each royal family head was given the rank of Duke. And the Dukes were responsible for looking after nobles in their territories. Now that the Empress had personally found some corrupted nobles under the Dukes, the Empress naturally had some questions for the Dukes. It was more like an interrogation.

Laura wanted to know why the nobles under the Dukes betrayed the Empire. She wanted to know what the 4 dukes of the Empire were doing when the nobles under them became corrupted. If she was not satisfied with any of the Duke's answers, then Laura had planned on punishing the 4 Dukes with restrictions. Not just restrictions, she also had planned for all four dukes to go through an official investigation.

Deep down she and everyone knew that blood was thicker than water. There was no way that the royal family or any of the Dukes would betray this Empire. But after finding out about the corruption in her Empire, even if there was a 0.00001% probability of any of the Dukes betraying the Empire, this was more than enough for her to start an official investigation.

"When will the meeting take place?" William curiously asked. He already had seen this coming. In the end, it was kind of his father and other dukes' fault. Those lower-ranking nobles were directly under the four dukes' control. His father and other dukes should have known about their subordinates betraying the Empire. But now that traitors have been found, the Empress was going to question them.

"In an hour. I have summoned the 4 Dukes to come to the royal palace. I have lots of things that I want to ask them. So it will take a few hours, maybe even more than that." William nodded in his heart. In this situation, he really cannot do much to help his father. It was kind of his Father's fault for not keeping an eye on his subordinate.

'Knowing Laura's personality, she would probably end up giving the old man a few sanctions or some sort of restrictions.' William wasn't too much worried about the whole meeting thing. At most the Empress was going to scold and temporarily suspend the dukes for their lack of responsibility.

Soon, after having lunch, Laura left as she had tons of work to do. She felt like crying knowing that she might not get to sleep for this entire week.

Meanwhile, Rosie dragged William along with them. He took him to the capital city. After entering the city, both girls ignored William and were immersed in their own worlds. Both girls became busy with shopping.

'This time luck was on my side. Normally it would have taken me a long time to reach level 40. Not to mention I wouldn't have gotten this huge boost in my stats if I had not decided to investigate this matter.' Before William was thinking about finding a place in a deep forest and hunting monsters. But that would have taken him a long time to reach level 40. As the soul of a low intelligent being is not strong or pure as the soul of an intelligent being.

"Let's use the 5000 justice value in upgrading my skills." William opened the system and looked at the passive skills he had.

"System how much would it require to upgrade passive skill sword dance to the next level?" William curiously asked.

『Ding! The host would need to have a 32,000 justice value.』

Hearing this huge number William nearly coughed out blood. This number was simply outrageous. This meant that for each higher level, the amount of justice value required to upgrade a passive skill will be doubled.

'How the hell I am supposed to get 32,000 justice value? My only source of income is from triggering events and choosing the most favorable option. If only I had some other means of earning justice value.'

『Ding! Justice value can be earned by doing good deeds. Each time the host does a good deed there is a high chance that the system will reward the host with justice value.』

"Fair enough." William had no intention of becoming a saint or a hero. Just because of earning justice value, he wasn't willing to bend his morals and principles.

"I would just keep training and naturally upgrade my skills." In the end, Will decided to save 5000 justice value and wait for the right time.

"Will, let's go to this shop." Without waiting for his reply, Rosie pulled his hand to another shop. After crossing the door, before Rosie could enter the shop with William, Elena stopped them.

"What happened?" Rosie asked.

"Big sister, I think it would be best if we let this pervert wait outside. After all, this is a women's lingerie shop." While saying the last part Elena felt a little embarrassed. She usually did this kind of shopping with her mother. She did not want a man to accompany her.

"I understand. Sorry I kind of forgot." Rosie realized her mistake. William already had seen her naked, so she was fine with letting him enter the shop but Elena did not feel the same way.

"Will, can you wait?" Rosie realized Will's attention was already on someone else. She followed his gaze and found a group of familiar men that she and Will happened to see yesterday in south river city.

"What they are doing here?" Rosie couldn't help but frown.

Will then turned to look at Rosie. "Rosie, why don't the two of you go inside? I will wait for you outside." Elena was very happy that this pervert wasn't going to join them. She immediately pulled Rosie and opened the wooden door.

"Alright, be careful." Rosie had a feeling William was going to do something to those men.

"Don't worry. I am just going to talk." Unlike normal times, Will had a serious look on his face. Even Elena can tell that things were going to get messy.

The reason William stayed behind was because he had triggered another event.

『Ding, trigger the option event, please choose one of the following options:
