Several guards also gathered around.

"It's better to meet him. I have something important to discuss with him. Nothing will happen." Reiner said slowly in front of one of the guards.

The guards raised their hands high, because at this moment several flying knives made of magic stone were already on everyone's necks.

"Honey, I'll leave the downstairs to you. Peggy and I will go upstairs and take a look."

"Okay." Nora picked up a throwing knife and glanced at the store guard.

Reiner turned and headed upstairs. When he reached the second floor, he knocked lightly on the door.

"who?"

A male voice came from the room.

Peggy, who was following behind him, said, "It's me. Mr. Horace, you should be familiar with my voice, right?"

Reiner sensed that the man in the room suddenly stood up, and then rummaged through the cabinet and found a dagger.

He raised his hand slightly, and the invisible blade cut the hinge, and the entire wooden door was removed.

Horace is a middle-aged man with small glasses and a slightly bald head.

When he saw Reiner rushing in, he quickly raised the dagger and pointed it at Reiner, shouting the guard's name.

It exploded without even being examined.

"Mr. Horace, are you surprised to see I'm still alive?" Peggy asked expressionlessly.

"You bitch... Get away! Stay away from me!" Horace shouted madly. He looked back at the window from time to time, as if he was ready to jump out of the window and escape.

A thick slab of stone suddenly rose up to cover the window, leaving Horace with nowhere to escape.

He was completely at his wit's end. He held up the dagger and said in panic, "I... I didn't do this willingly. They forced me. If I didn't tell them what I knew, they would burn down my shop in the city and kill my family..."

"Who are they?" Peggy continued.

"I only know that they are from the Kingdom of Rossno." Horace pounded twice on the sturdy stone slab sealing the window.

Reiner rushed towards him and instantly knocked him unconscious.

Then he used magic to establish a contract with him and began to read the memories in his brain.

Ever since Lelith became pregnant, he had to do many things personally, such as interrogating stubborn people. In the process, Reiner learned a lot.

Dark magic's memory reading is one of them.

Although it is not as simple as Lalith's magic, where you can roughly know what happened just by staring, it is still a relatively easy magic.

In Horace's memory, Reiner saw a lot of messy things.

This guy has a small estate near the capital of Diast and is considered a well-known wealthy businessman.

After work, he likes to go to the pub to drink, and then hang out with his friends in the city's red-light district...

Many scenes flashed by. Ever since Peggy completely opened up the trade routes between Cannon and Melode, his business here has not been so good.

Then several people came to him, and after some coercion and inducement, they learned that Peggy was using magic stones to quickly transport goods, and that she had recently made a big deal with the Chamber of Commerce.

Reiner saw a blond, blue-eyed face from the Rosno people.

He slowly loosened his hand, then teleported the unconscious Horace away, intending to hand him over to the subhuman guards.

Peggy beside him asked softly, "How is it? Is it him?"

Reiner nodded. "It's him, but he has someone above him. That guy lives outside the city. I'm going to go over and capture him as well."

Paige suddenly opened her arms and hugged Reiner tightly...
