Chapter 503 – Go Ahead

Wiping the wetness around his eyes, Luca held back the tears while sniffing his nose. “Yes, boss. I will do that.”

Afterward, watching him enter the room to take care of his hurt brother, Virus nodded in satisfaction. He was content with Luca’s sense of responsibility. 

If his follower had not cared enough about his little brother’s condition, Virus would’ve been truly disappointed in him since who was to say a kind of person who couldn’t even remain loyal to his suffering brother would maintain loyalty to a stranger like him?

Then, turning around, he was about to take his leave, when Archibald’s silhouette attracted his full attention.

“Boss! It’s done, I bought and installed the signboard!” He exclaimed jovially. For the first time in a long time, there was a light of youth burning within his pupils as he was feeling excited about every upcoming second.

“Good job, the shop also has its own shelves installed already, right?” Touching his chin, Virus asked.

“Yeah, I asked the property owner, he said those shelves belonged to the previous person that had rented the store. Unfortunately, that individual went bankrupt a while after opening the shop to the point he couldn’t even pay the rent, eventually, the shelves were able to repay a little bit of his debt to the owner at least.” Half-closing his eyes, Archibald explained with an unfocused gaze.

“I see.” Rubbing his chin, Virus contemplated a little more before uttering, “Oh, right, go call Augustus over for a moment.”

“Yes, sir.”

Soon, when Augustus came to him, Virus passed new instructions to the old man, “Augustus, you are to replace Luca and Luna’s duty of digging some basic stuff about a person, go ask Luca about the details and their findings so far, he will tell you everything.”

With his fingers crossed, Virus was absolutely serious when he suggested. “Just pretend to be a beggar when you go tailing the guy, I bet you’re good at it since you were a homeless guy.”

“Yes, boss.” Initiating and maintaining eye contact, Augustus bowed approvingly.

“Good, just get me his schedule as quickly as possible.”

Watching Augustus’ departure, Virus turned toward Archibald next, “let’s go see how the shop has turned out.”

A while later, entering the gloomy district empty of customers, Virus reached the very last shop which was his Cultivation Trust store.

Subsequently, after Archibald unlocked the gate, the two walked inside while Virus inspected the tiny shop in the meantime.

‘Hmm, everything necessary in order to run a shop is here, a seat, a desk, and the shelves, all that’s required now are the goods alone.’ After that brief inspection of the empty shelves and the cracked walls behind it, Virus turned toward Archibald and commanded.

“Now, I want you to go and buy a dozen notebooks, I’ll wait for you to come back.” Declaring that, Virus retreated to the seat of the shop.

Although that request confused Archibald, he knew it probably had to do with what they were going to sell. Of course, for a brief moment, he suspected that Virus may want to sell techniques just like he had at the auction house, however, merely the thought of that made him feel foolish to even presume it, ‘Huh… I must be truly going senile, just because he sold one technique for some quick cash doesn’t mean he has more available.’

Afterward, exiting the shop, Archibald disappeared for around fifteen minutes while Virus patiently awaited his return.

When he returned with a stack of notebooks and a pen, waving his palm, Virus urged him to bring the notebooks over. 

“That was fast, did you perhaps buy the notebooks from the Dead Pool district?” Raising one brow, Virus was slightly curious.

“Yeah, actually, since there are no customers around, the shop owners are really desperate to sell their merchandise, so when I went to one of them and said I want a dozen notebooks, that guy was so happy that the sparkle within his eyes nearly burned me alive, I swear he was literally walking on air.” Furrowing his brows, Archibald held his chin high while acting like a hero that had done a great favor to a commoner.

“Hmm, okay. Anyway, give me one of the notebooks.” Not really interested in knowing whether another dude was over the moon or not, Virus jumped over to the main subject he was here for.

Handing over one of the notebooks immediately, Archibald gazed at Virus intently while curiously awaiting his next course of action.

Following that, Virus grabbed the pen and started scribbling without any delay or pause in between.

Nearly an hour later, after he was finished writing the instructions, he went ahead and added the section called the Cultivation Trust’s Insight.

Next, closing the notebook, he added a few words on its cover before adding the description segment as well on its relevant page.

「Delirious Judgment Slash」:<Class: Low-Human>

[Description: A madman thinking him God! The first form is a vertical hacking attack using two liberated pathways, the more ‘delirious’ you are, the stronger the attack in both forms and vice versa. The second form is a horizontal slash and needs…]

By now, Archibald felt a little bit surprised, however, that level of surprise wasn’t worth mentioning, to be honest. ‘Well, this one seems to be a weaker technique than the previous one, it is probably another one of his techniques that he’s learned prior to grasping that Twisting Tempest Thrust technique we auctioned off earlier.’

Even though he felt it was completely normal for a cultivator like Virus to have access to a few ordinary techniques, there was still an aspect of this situation that was confusing Archibald, therefore, after some hesitation, he inquired. “Ah, boss… can I ask a question?”

“You just did.” Smiling humorously, Virus joked around.

Shifting from one leg to another, Archibald nearly cursed out. “Ah, come on, boss!”

“Haha, go ahead, oldie..” With his brows elevated, Virus permitted the senior citizen to make his inquiry.
