The Greatest Sinner - Chapter 214

Evan and Malespera successfully entered the central area. The girl was surprised by what she saw inside. She gazed at the tall towers, massive buildings, and clean streets. It was the most elite place in all Inlas.

It was worth noting that not all of the central area looked so neat and tidy, it was all about its owner. The sector where Evan and Malespera were now was run by “Paper Hydrangea.” They were some kind of aristocrats from the world of bandits and murderers.

Everyone who lived in their territory was obligated to maintain order and peace. In other situations, Evan would have chosen a less quiet place to live. He would have gone where he could fight for glory and kill someone. But, with the arrival of Malespera, the situation changed dramatically. Right now, he had no desire to fight anyone. Evan wanted to learn more about Malespera’s talent, her “Gust,” and the properties of crimson “Warp.”

For a while, until the girl got the hang of it, he would have to keep an eye on her. He had to explain to her what she could and could not tell others. If Malespera told anyone about the true color of her “Warp” and demon sigils, both she and Evan would be in huge trouble.

They wouldn’t be killed, but some organizations would make them work for themselves and reveal all their secrets and secrets under the pretext of death.

So such a relatively quiet and peaceful place was perfect for Evan now, and it wasn’t just about Malespera. After the last fight, he felt he was close to breaking the first “Barrier.” Evan was sure it would only take him a week for the chain to start breaking. No one was to get in his way during that time period.

“Evan, what does ‘slave’ mean?” Malespera asked, puzzled.

Evan sighed, “Never mind, remember, you shouldn’t mess with the people here. Also, if anyone asks you, tell them you’re Evan Lynch’s sister, got it?”

Malespera nodded affirmatively.

<Based on Malespera’s incredible talent, it would only take her a month to reach the One Ended Star, but… her progress would be hindered by the Barriers. Okay, I’ll deal with that later. For now, I need to find a place to live and keep a close eye on Malespera’s progress. Maybe through her, I can learn more about crimson “Warp” and “Gust”>.

Evan had a theory that Malespera was not the only ordinary person capable of entering “Gust.” Evan believed there were such people, though they were extremely few.

<Hmm, is it possible that those who were ordinary people were able to enter “Gust,” are brilliant magicians? Or was Malespera just an exception? Moreover, I have no idea if she could have awakened the talent for magic without my intervention. Damn, it’s too complicated and incomprehensible.>

For the next hour, Evan and Malespera wandered through the sector under the control of Paper Hydrangea,” Evan said. Officially, this sector was called Sector Three.

Evan decided not to be petty and rented one of the best mansions. It was equipped with a lot of protective spells, special rooms for “Creation,” and a training ground. What’s more, the house was monitored by servants around the clock.

Usually, Evan didn’t like outsiders in his house, but this was a particular case. Thanks to other people, Malespera would be able to adapt faster, and it was impossible to keep an eye on such a big house alone.

Evan paid 10,000 gold coins for the month. Even for a central area, this was quite a lot of money. There was another reason Evan had chosen this particular mansion – it was near the Paper Hydrangea base.

There was no way the members of the “Hell Bulls” would dare to do anything unruly in this area. Some assassins might be sent to Evan, but they would not be very powerful. Otherwise, they would be noticed, and the Hell Bulls would be in trouble.

Moreover, the “Hell Bulls” could not operate openly in “Paper Hydrangea” territory. They were warring organizations, and killing their enemy was no problem for them. In Inlas, murders happened every day. If some skirmish occurred, no one would even pay attention to it.

Evan and Malespera walked into their new house, and the girl asked, “This house…it’s so big, there must be a lot of people living here.”

“HAH, no, it’s just going to be just the two of us, well, and a few other servants.” Evan calmly replied as he headed into the hall.

The mansion had three floors and two more underground. Plus, there were hot springs and a small tea house on the grounds of the mansion. The place looked something like the Zak estate.

“But, this place is ten, no, twenty times larger than my former home…and who are these servants?” The girl asked, puzzled.

“Now you’ll see everything, you could say that they’ll just help us with the daily chores. You won’t have to cook and clean and so on anymore.”

Click.

Evan opened the door with both hands, and they entered the main hall. There were servants already waiting for them, most of them women, except for the butler and some other people.

When they saw Evan, they bowed and said loudly, “Welcome home, master!”

Malespera was shocked, she had never seen anything like it. There was an elder in her village whom everyone respected, but no one worshipped him so low.

Evan nodded quietly and walked over to the butler, he said something to him and moved on.

The maids looked at Evan with glowing eyes, but when their gaze fell on Malespera, contempt appeared on their faces.

They thought she was from the slums, and they had a real disgust for such people. Naturally, Evan noticed this.

<Well, I guess it’s worth solving all the problems right here and now.>

Evan walked up to one of the maids and suddenly grabbed her by the neck. He squeezed her hard enough that the girl could barely breathe.

But, no one moved. Evan was the law in this house, this was Inlas, and such things were not uncommon here.

“I address all of you, this girl is my sister, her name is Malespera Lynch, and you must treat her with even more respect than you treat me. If I see that anyone has not been courteous and accommodating enough, I will rip his head off and feed his body to the hell dogs. Is that clear!?”

“Yes, Mr. Evan!”

Evan released his grip and tossed the girl aside. He turned to Malespera, “Would you be so kind as to cast Magic Missile, aim for the ceiling?”

“Right there?” The girl asked, puzzled. She knew that this spell would easily destroy part of the building.

Evan just nodded.

A couple of seconds later, a white beam of mana reached the ceiling, but there was no explosion. The magical barrier absorbed all of the Magic Missile’s power. It was strong enough to withstand a hundred such attacks.

Then all those who looked at Malespera with disdain realized how wrong they had been. It wasn’t just fear of Evan’s power in their eyes now, but of Malespera’s power as well. Even if she had only recently become a mage, she was already incomparably high compared to mere humans.

In their minds, Evan had even done them favors. If they had acted carelessly and angered Malespera, the girl would simply have killed them. Malespera would not have been punished, at most, she would have had to pay a fine, and that would be it.

“Hey, Malespera, what would you like for lunch?” Evan asked calmly, as if nothing had just happened.

“Hmm, probably some potatoes…”

<Yeah, found someone to ask, okay that’s fixable too.> Evan thought and looked at the butler and said:

“Prepare the best meat and desserts you can for dinner, don’t worry about the money, I’ll pay for everything.”
