Chapter 1323 A Line That Had Been Crossed Azief and Katarina just stand there in front of the counter, seemingly not caring about the people gaze that is concentrated on them
Not many people come nears them right now. Many people heard what they were talking about.
They heard that the old man is staying to buy some information and many of them do not want to get associated with such a person.
Those who dares buy information from the Hanging Head tavern are either desperate for information or fearsome character in the world.
They do not know what to make of the old man and his granddaughter.
These people who live in this pirate cities knows one simple wisdom. To the things you do not know, do not come near and do not poke a stick on it.
Who knows whether it is a harmless fish or some sea monster?
For a moment, there is the feeling that the sound on the second floor slowly become slower.
And after a while there is silence.
Nobody talks that much and if they do talk they talk in whispers.
But Azief and Katarina did not seem to sense this atmosphere as they just stand there in front of the bar counter without being flustered.
It did not take long for the bartender to inform someone.
The black door opened and someone else comes out from the door.
This is a big man with an imposing height of seven feet two. This is basically a small giant. He had a nose ring, wearing a sleeveless shirt, a tattoo of some woman on his left arm
He is full of muscles and he is bald.
He looks like some kind of person one would hire to become an extra in some television shows to the role of Gangster number one.
But even though Azief and Katarina did not take much weight of this person, it is not the same for people on the second floor
Those who were regular at the Hanging Head knows that the bald man is one of the enforcers of the Hanging Head. He is called Gabe by the people of Hanging Head.
'Gabe!' someone shouted and wave their hands. Gabe nodded
No one knows his real name as everyone simply called him Gabe.
This person is also in the Disk Formation realm. Gabe who was taller than anyone else look at the two people who was standing straight near the bar counter.
Usually if he comes out, people would have some reaction. Either fear, awe, or looking down on him
Whatever the reaction, he could judge from that. But the old man looks at him and simply ignore him.
Gabe narrowed his eyes looking at these two people trying to analyze these two people.
These two people did not show much reaction but he could feel that these two people are not ordinary.
There is a reason why he believes it to be so
even when he tries to use his Divine Sense to probe these two, he could not get a grasp of these two level.
Either these two people have no energy at all in their body, or they either have some powerful concealing methods or artifact or they are stronger than him
But, he is already a Disk Formation leveler.
Even though the eyes a lot of Disk Formation leveler in the world now, the amount of Disk Formation leveler did not pass a thousand mark.
Of course this did not include those people who do not show themselves to the world like those experts who secluded themselves not wanting to step on this muddy world.
Gabe is unlike the bartender. His horizon is a bit wider and his experience with people is even more extensive
That is the reason the bartender called him.
The bartender is a bit kind hearted, usually turning people down.
As for Gabe, if you dare to buy the information, you have to pay a price. Even magic has a price. Why is it shocking that the things you buy also have a price?
Those who dares to make deal with the Hanging Head even after knowing the dire price that they have to pay if they could not hold up the deal is usually not normal people.
So, he did not look down on these two. But he still needs to make sure that these two could pay. He come closer to Azief and then said
'Old man. Are you the one that wanted to buy information from our tavern. Little Roy here probably has told you that there is price to be paid if you can't handle the payment'
Azief only nodded and then Gabe continued his word
'Even though we are not some criminal organization and more of a food and beverage company combined with some information gathering service, we do not hesitate to do more than necessary when it is regarding having to pay back what you owe to use'
This is simply Gabe once again giving a warning to the old man, so that this old man knows that they are not kidding around here
Azief look at Gabe serious face and could not help but chuckles. Even Katarina who was standing beside Azief smirks.
'I can afford it' he said. Gabe frown deeper and then he sighed. There seems to be a tense atmosphere between them for a few second before he nodded and then he said
'Alright. If you say so.' Gabe however also wanted to know what the old man wanted to ask.
If its normal information, Gabe is intending to send this old man to one of the information gathering service that is all around town
After all, there are times when newcomers come to this town and did not know that they could actually find normal basic question in some of the more legal and cheaper alternative.
Hanging Head usually trades in sensitive highly confidential information.
It is illegal actually to sell these kind of information. Because this could touch the interest of the forces in this city.
But when it comes to Hanging Head tavern, most people would close oen eye on them. Why? Nobody knows.
Some people said that they are under the backing of one of the Ten Pirate Lords.
Some said that they have a backing from one of the executive in the Dark Syndicate. Some said that they are under the protection of the Red Table
The Red Table is basically like the Round Table of the Arthurian Knights but the difference is that this Red Table is for criminals.
Headed by the crime lords and crime families, the Red Table is one of the ways the Crime Alliance policy is enacted.
Regardless of the rumors, nobody actually really knows who is backing the tavern and why the city is so reluctant to take them on.
But, after all this is a city of pirates. It is not some city for those wanting justice or wanting the law to follow the rules
The law is simply there to maintain order and not for justice.
It is different from the world powers like Pandemonium who persistently pursue justice.
At least it was so for its people and people under Death Monarch. Death Monarch himself is more on the chaotic side, doing whatever he likes in this world
'I want to know about the Ten Pirate Lords, the Ten Seas, all you could find about the Seven Great Power. Basically, I want every information you had' Azief said with a smile.
The smile looks a lot like he was teasing them.
Gabe hearing what Azief said suddenly narrowed his eyes.
'You are messing with us, aren't you?' he said. His tone is now cold and severe.
Azief shakes his head, his face is still full of smiles as he said
'No, I am not joking at all. I am very serious' right now the entire second floor is now quiet.
There is no longer any sound of people clinking their glass together, or people telling their stories or the sound of anyone singing.
Everyone seems to shut their mouth.
The people here knows that a certain line had been crossed.
And that old man had just crossed it.
