"40 devil-grade ingredients for 15% shares as collateral and I get to pick which ingredients I want, or I will find someone else," I said with a frown as if this was my bottom line.

Over the millennia the royal family has managed to acc.u.mulate mountains of devil-grade ingredients enough to fill several storage rooms because except for the devil core, they had no idea what to do with the rest of the corpses of the devils they slayed other than to harvest the intact parts as ingredients. I planned to take advantage of this to select the 40 most expensive devil-grade ingredients in their warehouse using my demon merchant codex.

"Deal," Ann immediately agreed then added, "Let us head home, I will draw up the contract and bring you to choose the ingredients."

"Rich people," Agatha blurted seeing the boy make a huge deal worth 40 devil-grade ingredients while stuffing himself with pizza.

"Wait, I am not done yet," I said so because 40 devil-grade ingredients were nowhere near enough for me to bring my plans to fruition.

"You sure you want to invest so much in this project?" Ann enquired the boy in surprise. She just promised to give him 40 devil-grade ingredients and he still wanted more, she did not believe building VR-city would require that much seed money. But considering that the boy always gave his best, she felt he was going to invest everything he can into the VR-City project.

"Why? Do you too believe that I cannot do this all on my own?" I asked Ann. She was not a dreamer like Anna, and would never support any of my ideas so far so it was not surprising that she did not believe that I could do this.

"Does it matter what I think? You will do what you want anyway," Ann avoided answering as she really did not believe in the boy that he would be able to make the VR-City a success that people will speak of ages from now.

Shaking my head I used a cleansing array to clean myself and said, "I have information that will be of big help to the Southern region. I will share it with you for 10 devil-grade ingredients."

"What is the information?" Ann asked squinting her eyes. She did not doubt that the boy had some information that would benefit the southern region but if it was worth ten devil-grade ingredients.

"You better than to ask for the goods without paying up," I said in disappointment and urged her, "You better hurry because the longer you wait the closer the information will get to losing its value."

"Fine, I give you 10 devil-grade ingredients now tell me the information," Ann decisively agreed.

"Have you heard of gate dungeons to gates?" I asked Ann to create suspense instead of just telling her after all this information was worth 10 devil-grade ingredients.

"Yes, but whenever a gate dungeon with two entrances is found it is immediately conquered and destroyed by the card apprentice involved as it will only spark a war over its owners.h.i.+p," Ann replied with a deep frown as she was not liking what the boy was trying to enunciate.

"Well, Chris Chase aka Chris Ainsworth has found one connecting the outskirts of the Western capital to the outskirts of the Southern capital. That was why he was in the Southern capital this morning. Don't ask me which dungeon this is all I know but you should know that the Western Palace already knows about this dual gate dungeon and should be making their move by now," I revealed to Ann.

When I hacked Chris Chase's grimoire, I had my Superbrain card bug his grimoire just in case he escapes. And it paid off.

d| A few minutes ago Chris Chase contacted the Western Palace hoping to use the information on the gate dungeon with two gates connecting the Westen capital to the Southern capital with them in exchange for resources to heal himself.

The repercussions of using the s.p.a.ce-time tunnel were more than he had expected, if he did not do anything about it his wounds would only worsen until he finds peace in death's embrace.

As soon as the Western Palace heard that Chris had information on a gate dungeon connecting Western Capital with Southern Capital, he immediately turned the call encrypted and swept Chris's grimoire to check if someone was eavesdropping. If not for my demon merchant codex, I would have been caught in the act by them.

"I can't believe the useless director was right, Chris Ainsworth was Chris Chase," Agatha exclaimed

"Don't tell me" listening to the boy's action Ann finally understood what Chris Ainsworth was doing in the dungeon registration and allocation department headquarters early in the morning.

Ann immediately understood how Chris Ainsworth who had entered a dungeon in the Western Captial could be seen in the Southern Capital. The dungeon he entered in the Western capital was the first gate of the two-gate dungeon and the dungeon he tried to book in the Southern capital was the second gate of the two-gate dungeon.

Though this did not explain how Chris was able to escape the SSS-rank s.p.a.ce isolation array or how the boy knew about Chris finding the two-gate dungeon, she had a more pressing issue to attend to. Using an encrypted line she began to report the information to her mother. Because when it comes to this kind of situation, only her mother was the most reliable one. As the rest of the demiG.o.ds in the family only liked to take with their muscles.

After reporting the matter to her mother, Ann's tense facial expression finally eased a little bit especially when she heard her mother say, "Don't worry, aunt is still in the southern region, I will call and ask her to personally guard the dual gate dungeon until I get there."

By 'aunt' Ann's mother obviously meant Field Marshal Heatsend. However, what a.s.sured Ann was the fact that her mother would be arriving to handle this matter.
