Chapter 28. I Can Tell a Woman by Her Scent

Char still came to the Dawn Chamber of Commerce and was treated with the highest level of hospitality.

Felix had just climbed into his lover’s bed, and he had not even taken off his pants.

He still had the smell of a woman’s perfume.

“Mrs. Jolent?”

Char raised an eyebrow, and Felix’s smile instantly froze on his face.

Mrs. Jolent was one of his lovers, but that was not the main issue. The main issue was how did he know?

In just a few short minutes, who would disclose the information?

Could it be that the other party could recognize women by their fragrance?

Was that even possible?

Felix’s cold sweat was pouring down his back. He felt like he was surrounded by eyes, and he was being seen through.

This was the effect Char wanted.

[Trade Negotiation] was a skill, and Felix’s [Trade Negotiation] was at the maximum level. There were few people in the entire United Holy Kingdom who were better than him.

If it was not for the fact that this fat man with hair like Trump’s was too important, Char would not have wanted to deal with him.

This was because the skill was too overpowered.

The bonus from max-level [Trade Negotiation] was unreasonable. Not to mention the NPC’s speaking skills, just the value alone was 40%.

For example, if Char wanted to buy an item for 10 gold coins, the starting price would be 14.

On the other hand, if he wanted to sell it, he could only sell it for 6 gold.

However, after many tests, Char found that as long as he took advantage of the other party’s timid character and put him into a dazed’ state, [Trade Negotiation] would not work.

This was only the first step.

Char said, “Mrs. Jolent’s husband is a Gruber Officer, right? I heard that he’s been in Makus City for a month.”

Felix smiled in embarrassment and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

“This has nothing to do with our business. Sir, you should…”

“When you helped Mrs. Jolent deal with that batch of prohibited items, you fired an inflexible supervisor, right?” Char’s finger tapped on the table. “I think you should remember that guy’s name is Sanji. He’s Half-Barbarian, tall, and almost got into a fight with you.”

“Why did you mention him?”

“I’ve seen him before. Guess where?”

“Where?”

“In the military camp of Makus City. He’s now the Captain of Gruber Officer’s infantries.”

“What?”

Felix’s face suddenly turned pale, and his body went limp in his chair.

His mind was filled with the consequences of Gruber finding out about this …

As an absolute confidant promoted by Burwell, as long as Gruber sent back an angry message, he would most likely have to leave Astan City!

Felix was so anxious that his brain was almost cooked.

“What?”

Char tapped the table and tried to keep it short.

“Now, let’s talk about the Gryphon. I’ll sell it to you for 25 gold coins.”

“Ah?”

Felix raised his head in surprise.

The price was not high, but it was not cheap either. It was just within his acceptable range…

If it was in the past, he would definitely haggle the price. However, he did not have the time at that moment!

“Done…”

“I’ll add two more spots,” Char said.

“What spots?”

“After the auction is over, the number of guards for the team you rush back to Andaheim.”

Andaheim was the general name for the Light Forest and the surrounding Light Elf towns.

Felix lived on the edge of the city

The cities at the edge were not recognized by the elves, but they were indeed in Andaheim, and they could squeeze into the army.

“It’s that simple?” Felix couldn’t believe it.

Char chuckled.

You might think it’s easy now, but you’ll bleed a lot later.

“It’s that simple.”

“Alright, deal!”

Felix was very satisfied with this deal, and he signed the contract.

To him, this was definitely the most important contract. If he broke his promise, he would never be able to earn a single gold coin for the rest of his life.

The reason why he was so forthright was that he was afraid that Char would use this important information as a bargaining chip to threaten him.

After the deal was done, Felix thanked him and went to deal with his own business.

After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, Evelyn heaved a sigh of relief.

“The stench on that fat pig’s body is suffocating me.”

“Come on, you’re so nervous you’re almost out of breath.”

Char raised his hand, which was clenched by Evelyn just now.

It was a good thing he had 19 points of strength. Otherwise, he would probably get a broken finger.

At that time, there were at least eight level 40 Light Elf Guards standing behind the two of them. It was simply too exciting.

Evelyn looked away awkwardly and changed the topic on purpose. “Where are we going next?”

“Upgrade,” Char said.

…

Char chose the most remote path in Astan City. There was no one around, and the light dimmed.

The more she walked, the more frightened she became. This road led to the secret stronghold of the Dark Brotherhood…

However, the problem was, this was clearly a secret passage only for internal personnel, so how could this guy be so familiar with it?

He did not stop along the way, as if he was at home.

The entrance was set in a hidden house in the shantytown. If it was safe, he would hang a green felt hat in the yard.

It was safe today.

The two of them climbed over the wall without a sound. Just as Evelyn was about to go up and exchange signals, Char pulled her back.

“What’s wrong?”

“Shh, listen.”

The Dark Elf’s heart clenched. She was sensitive to the word.

Could it be…

She walked a few steps forward against the wall and came to the window.

The bed in the room creaked, mixed with extremely suppressed moans.

Clearly, there were only two people.

The blush on Evelyn’s face crept up to her ears in a second. She quickly turned around to leave, but she bumped into Char’s arms.

“You…”

“What about me?”

Char opened her arms and made a funny look.

Embarrassed and annoyed, Evelyn was about to leave when a strange sound came from the room.

“Who’s outside?”

The two of them suddenly stopped moving and leaned against the wall like statues.

The sound of footsteps came from the window, and Evelyn nervously approached Char, the two of them tightly hugged together.

The NPC guarding the secret door was level 35. Although he was a level 35 Veteran Militia with only a basic 5 points of perception sense, his combat attributes were high. The current situation was unreasonable. If they were to fight, it would be a big problem.

At least, that was what she thought.

Just as the Dark Elf was feeling nervous, a restless hand suddenly wrapped around her waist and slowly reached into her clothes.

“Oh… You…”

Evelyn trembled as if she had been electrocuted. Her body was sensitive, and she had to grit her teeth and not make a sound, she immediately glared at Char, warning him to behave.

Char pretended to look around.

With his familiarity with her, he would not cross her bottom line so easily.

“Creak!”

The window was pushed open, and Evelyn’s muscles tensed up for a moment, but then relaxed in Char’s hands.

“Did you hear wrongly? Damn it, who’s disturbing us…?”

The person who opened the window mumbled a few words and closed the window again when the female voice inside called out.

The Dark Elf heaved a sigh of relief.

“Let’s go,” Char whispered in her ear, and his breath hit her ear, making her feel itchy all over.

Evelyn’s entire body went limp. She could only roll her eyes at him charmingly. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck and let his hands go through the back of his neck and the back of his legs.

“How are we going to get down?” She asked.

Char carried her over the high wall and returned to the fork.

“I suddenly thought of it… We don’t have to take that path.”

“Char!”
