The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world-Chapter 72 Ch 70: Trouble Comes In All Packages [Pt1]

“Then, I will expect you to give us a visit soon. I am sure the young ones who look up to you will also be happy.”

The leader of the Saints gave a grateful smile as she stood up. She signed the contract first and handed it over to Yohan and Layla. Yohan signed it and passed it along to Zane to make a copy.

Now they had a legal contract on their side which would make future dealings easier to handle.

Although, he was interested to know why Zane had reacted as he did when he had seen the visiting card Karen had passed on to him. Yohan did not see anything unique or special with the card or the address printed on it.

“Then, I should take my leave now. Both I and my students will be looking forward to seeing you again soon.”

Karen gave a shallow bow as she stared Yohan right in the eye. Her staring gaze refused to back down even when Yohan sharpened his looks.

She was a daring woman who had an agenda.

“I should head out as well now. I hope Mr. Stroout would visit me soon as well.”

Layla was ready to head out as well. She waited to see if she would be stopped by her master but Yohan did not give her any command to do so. So Layla finally left as well, taking her assistants with her.

That only left Zane and Yohan alone in the room. And Yohan quickly raised a privacy barrier to make sure his conversation remains private.

“Zane, can you give me an explanation for why you wanted me to accept Saint’s offer for a visit?”

Yohan asked the question before Zane was done collecting everything on the table. Zane stopped collecting the papers on the desk and turned to face Yohan.

“The address took me aback but I remembered that it was the address where the 1st Realm’s ruler was supposed to be. But in our current condition, it would not be easy to infiltrate the palace.”

Now Yohan understood why Zane had looked so surprised and pleased when he had seen the visiting card. This was nothing less than a golden opportunity for Yohan to lay his claim on the 1st human realm.

It lessened not only the margin for error but also reduced the effort it would require the breach the defenced of their opponents.

“We got so lucky with this offer. We should get back home and make our preparations-”

Yohan was about to head back home as well when the door was knocked from the outside with urgency. Someone outside the door wanted to barge into the meeting room.

Usually, no human should have come this meeting room’s way due to the magical barrier Yohan had cast on it. They should have forgotten all about it as soon as they were near his energy.

So if someone had managed to make their way toward this room, they had to be someone with magical powers or supernatural links. And they also had to be desperate for them to ignore all the feeling of discomfort they would be feeling.

“B-Boss Zane, are you in there? An incident h-happened at the base. You should h-hurry back home.”

The raspy voice from behind the door panted out. The man who was speaking sounded like he was dying right now.

Zane did not wait around to hear anymore as he snapped the door open. The dark-skinned human who had been leaning against the door fell through. As he did so, his illusion of being human faded away.

Yohan could see red eyes and fangs poking from that pale-ash-colored face. It seemed like their intruder was a vampire.

“Wait, calm down and explain to me what happened in detail. I was not able to get anything you said until now.”

Zane stopped the vampire from freaking out while Yohan moved around to collect the phone that had fallen out of the Vampire’s hands. He was about to give it back to the vampire but then it rang.

Yohan was in a habit of answering his phone instantaneously. It was a habit he had cultivated due to a limited number of people contacting him until now.

“Hello-”

“D-Did you reach the boss? D-Don’t come back here. The h-hunters are here and…AHHHHHHHHHHH”

Pain-filled screams were being emitted from the phone speaker. Sound of flesh being cut and torn apart filled the empty conference room.

Yohan was glad that he had cast the privacy spell on the room. Otherwise, the police would have arrived on the scene by now.

“Zane, is this one of our bases? Do you know this vampire?”

Yohan turned toward Zane as he held the phone loosely in his hands. He needed to know if this was something he should be concerned about or not.

If the base being attacked was theirs, then Yohan needed to take care of their attacker. If it was not there, then Yohan could not be bothered to care about it.

Since he was not a nice person, he did not want to exert any effort on things he could not profit from.

“Unfortunately, I do know this vampire and this base does fall under our territory. We should go back and check out what is happening there. We got no information about a raid about to happen from our spies in the hunting association.”

Zane sounded worried about what was happening when he was not paying attention.

“Was it a random hit? Or did someone leak out information?”

Yohan questioned, now curious as well. He did not often interact with his subordinates, nor did he know a lot about them. He mostly left the management up to Zane.

But he wanted to get involved in this case himself. He had a feeling that the timing of this raid and the Saints participating in this contract were connected.

Karen’s shining eyes flashed across Yohan’s mind and he could not help but think that she was hiding a lot of secrets.

“B-Boss, please help us out. If you c-come with us now then we can maybe save some people still. There are children in our base.”

The vampire pleaded out, tugging at Zane’s pant leg from his fallen position. He had not gotten up even after Zane had tried to help him out.

Yohan could not help but notice that it was likely due to the number of injuries he had suffered. There was a lack of magic and energy in the vampire’s body.

“What should we do now, Master Yohan? Should we go after the hunters and risk exposing ourselves?”

There was real concern in Zane’s voice when he asked that question. It seemed like this sudden attack had rattled him up and he was getting angrier and angrier at the hunters.

Yohan had no love for the hunters who dared to attack his people as well. And he also needed to establish control over his forces.

This was the perfect opportunity to show himself and solve this case. And the look he exchanged with Zane said that Zane agreed with him as well. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

“Zane, it seemed like some ignorant fool decided to mess with our people when we were busy. It is a tie we pay them back with double the interest and then some extra. We shall make sure our attacker does not make it out alive.”

“Yes, master. Your order shall be carried out.”

Yohan was excited to get revenge and to get his hands on a new toy for his collection. If he was right, then the hunters would make for a good addition to his army of undead.

Currently, he lacked a lot of skilled human workers. And this hunt gave him the perfect opportunity to gain some in his collection.

“B-Boss, are you going to help us out?”

The vampire looked beyond touched once he saw both Yohan and Zane stand up to follow him out. No other boss personally came out to take care of their troubles.

And as good as the hunters were, the vampire was sure that they were no match for his boss and the young half-human at his side. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

“Yeah, we will be helping you out this time. We need to do pest control once in a while or they start to become a problem.”

Zane cracked his head as he walked out of the room. All the papers he had to take home were being left behind.

And even though Zane was leaving quite a lot of work behind, Yohan was certain that Zane will be able to handle it later on.

If not, then getting Layla’s help was always an option. This was her building after all and she had complete control over the building surveillance.

Still, it was better to be safe than to be sorry.

“Master Yohan, there is no need for you to come along with me. I can handle these fools all on my one.”

Zane was confident in his power and he should be as well. Yohan had watched him tear apart monsters like they were made out of paper.

He knew that Zane would be able to take control of this situation if Yohan let him handle it.

But Yohan wanted to particulate himself. He felt like it would be a nice opportunity for him to show off for real and also gauge his current power level against someone with actual divine powers.
