Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 890

Chapter 890: What Are You Laughing At? (Part 1)
“Alaric, you should know that because of the robbery of the Enlightenment Stone from the auction house, my business is not doing good,” Leopold said in a low voice. “The credibility of the Bloodmoon Auction House dropped to the very bottom and my enemies are using this chance to throw more dirt on me, trying to completely destroy my auction house.”

“I know,” Hearing Leopold, Alaric nodded his head with a calm look on his face.

Seeing Alaric’s calm look, Leopold took a deep breath and spoke with a serious look on his face.

“In order to restore the reputation of my auction house, I need your help.”

“Need my help?” Alaric looked at him in confusion. “How can I help you?”

Although Alaric looked confused, Anastasia, who was listening to their conversation from the side felt as if this old foxy guy was laughing inside and was shouting ‘Everything According To Plan.’

“I need you to help me find the entrance of that secret realm and capture those two thieves so that I can take back the Enlightenment Stone from them and restore my reputation.”

Hearing Leopold, Alaric sighed and shook his head. “Sorry, Leopold, but I can’t help you in this matter.”

“If you help me I will pa—”

“It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but you also know that the Dark Forest is vast and even with my powers, it is almost impossible to look for the entrance of a realm that constantly shifts its position every minute.”

Leopold was silent hearing Alaric because he knew the fox guy was right. After staying silent for a while, the vampire looked back at Alaric and spoke once again.

“Since you can’t help me then I have another request.”

Alaric placed his teacup on the table and looked at the Vampire calmly. “What kind of request?”

When Anastasia saw this scene, for some reason, she felt as if the fox was trying very hard not to grin like a fool.

“Since you don’t want to help me look for the entrance of the realm, can I send my own people into the Dark Forest to look for it?”

“No,” Alaric immediately denied Leopold’s request and said in a serious voice. “Leopold, you promised me that you wouldn’t tell anyone about this secret realm. Don’t tell me you want to go back on your words.”

“I am not planning to go back on my words, I will use a Soul Contract on the people I send here to look for the secret realm…” Leopold said in a serious voice. “I will make sure that they won’t be able to tell anyone about this.”

Alaric fell silent upon hearing Leopold and tapped his finger on the tabletop with a thoughtful look on his face.

The vampire watched the fox with his hands clenched under the tea table.

In reality, the reason he wanted permission to look for the secret realm was not only to look for Evan and Cedar but also because of the resources that the secret realm contained inside it.

After hearing everything that Alaric said, the vampire was sure that not many people had been able to enter this secret realm and it was very likely to contain many treasures.

He wanted to send his subordinates to look for this secret realm so that he could capture Evan and Cedar and at the same time, he wanted to explore this secret realm to get his hands on something precious.

He could have sent his subordinates to look for the secret realm inside the Dark Forest even without telling Alaric, but almost every single monster inside the Dark Forest was Alaric’s subordinate, so it wouldn’t have taken long for the fox to realize that Leopold had sent his subordinates to look for the entrance of the secret realm.

Once Alaric found out about this, the vampire was sure that Alaric would most likely kill all of his subordinates who entered the Dark Forest. That’s why, instead of secretly sending his subordinates to look for the entrance of the realm, he decided to ask him beforehand.

After remaining silent for the full five minutes, Alaric finally looked at Leopold and nodded his head.

“You can tell your subordinates about the secret realm and send them here to look for its entrance, but make sure to use a powerful soul contract that even the thought of wanting to tell anyone about this realm will grant them an instant death.”

“Sure,” Leopold was happy when Alaric allowed him to send his subordinates to look for the entrance of the Dark Forest. He wanted to speak further about this matter, but before he could, Alaric said something that made him frown.

“Before you send your subordinates here, I want you to do something.”

Leopold raised an eyebrow hearing Alaric and asked with a frown on his face. “What do you want me to do?”

“I want you to clean my forest.”

“Eh?…” The vampire was stunned upon hearing Alaric and he looked at him with a weird look on his face. “What do you mean by clean your forest? Do you want me to send someone to broom the Dark Forest?”

Alaric shook his head upon hearing Leopold and spoke in a calm voice.

“You know that many people come to the Dark Forest every day because of the bounty you announced, right?”

Leopold nodded hearing Alaric as he also knew many individuals arrived in the Dark Forest due to the bounty he placed on Evan and Cedar’s heads.

“I want you to remove that bounty so that those searching for them would leave my forest,” Alaric said.

Leopold frowned hearing Alaric. “You know I can’t abruptly remove the bounty, right? If I do, those who have been searching for those two thieves for almost two and a half months will curse me to death and my already struggling business will further decline.”

Alaric wasn’t surprised when he heard Leopold and he nodded his head.

“I know that, but you don’t have to worry about it because I have a way to avoid these problems and help restore some of your reputation at the same time.”

The storage ring Alaric was wearing flashed and something materialized in his hands.

Leopold looked at the thing that appeared in Alaric’s hand and his eyes widened in shock.
