Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

" Tsk, The wine here tastes like piss."

" Just wait for a day or two, Brother. We will be able to get out of town then."

Two men discussed as they enjoyed wine and delicacies.

" How is your wound?"

" It's fine, Nothing too serious." One of them shook their head. " Though I have to admit, he actually fought back pretty well."

" Indeed, I thought it would be a swift kill. But he managed to react even after we ambushed him."

" So what?" The man grinned. " Even he fought well, Jiu Liang is dead now. Our work is done without any hiccups."

" You are right." His friend agreed. " As for that servant, I am sure he will be taken care of tonight."

" Hehe, we got the perfect alibi thanks to him. And even if someone tries to figure out things, he would be dead by then." The man laughed.

" I doubt anyone in this town is competent enough to investigate. Though, we better be careful." The man's friend nodded as he poured wine into the glass.

" Enjoy!"

" Enjoy!"

Before they could drink, their door got knocked. Both of them were surprised as they quickly grabbed their weapons.

But the knock was in a strange tune, three quick knocks with four slow knocks.

As they noticed it, they let go of their weapons in relief. One of them got up and opened the door.

" What happened?"

" My lord! The guards are here! They are checking this place!"

The person was the manager of the brothel. Hearing him, both men frowned.

" What? They are searching here?"

" How did they know?"

The manager shook his head. " I don't think they know anything. They are just…checking all the places."

" Please, don't worry. There is a secret pathway."

The man's friend nodded. " Yes, You already told us about it."

" After the inspection is over, I will signal you to come back. Till then…"

" We know." The man waved his hand. " Ugh, You ruined our appetite. We only took a sip of wine."

" My lord, Don't worry. Tonight, I will send three of our precious beauties." The manager rubbed his palms as he tried to calm them down.

" Heh, You better do."

Saying that, they followed the manager and walked to a cupboard. The manager triggered a mechanism, revealing a hidden path leading downstairs.

Both men easily traversed the path and got to the exit.

" Haah! That was stuffy."

" Ugh, I need some fresh air."

As they opened the vault door and walked up, they were stunned to see a handsome young man standing before them, as if waiting for their arrival.

" You guys appeared on your own, huh? Lucky me, I don't need to work much." Read exclusive chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

Jia Hao was pleasantly surprised when he saw both of them. He had some suspicions regarding a hidden passage around the brothel.

Since he had already started to practice the Earth Traversal Technique, Jia Hao was very perceptive of the ground around him. He felt something unusual when he stood between the shop and the brothel.

When he used his Sage's Divine Eyes to the maximum, he finally found the existence of the secret passage.

Before they could move, Jia Hao unsheathed his saber and stabbed out.

*PSSHHH!*

" KHUGH!"

The man trembled as a sharp pain blinded his mind. The saber pierced his chest, but it didn't go full way in.

" Don't you dare to move." Jia Hao looked at the friend of the man. " If you do something, I will pull out this saber. And within thirty breaths of time, your friend will die from blood loss."

" Ah, If you are thinking of betraying him and running away, I will kill you first and interrogate him instead." Jia Hao gave a bright smile.

" After all, Only one of them needs to be alive to give me information, yes?"

" We-We don't know anything!" The other man hurriedly spoke.

" Cut the crap. Is it the Blood Axe Gang?"

Both men's expressions changed when they heard Jia Hao's question.

" ARRGH!"

The man shouted painfully as Jia Hao twisted his saber a bit, almost ripping his chest.

" If you dare to hide anything, I will dice you into pieces and feed to dogs." Jia Hao's icy voice made both of them tremble in fear.

" Ye-Yes, It's Hong Bei of Blood Axe Gang! He paid us money to eliminate Jiu Liang, because Jiu Liang was investigating the illegal smuggling of goods."

" What kind of goods?" Jia Hao asked again.

" I…We don't know!" The man hurriedly said. " I heard its Black Fragrant Wood from Green Sprite Forest."

" Hmph, You think only for some precious woods, Blood Axe Gang will kill Jiu Liang? The chief of guards of Qingyang County?"

" It's absurd! But we don't know! They paid us fifty thousand taels of gold! It was too much for us!" The man's friend shouted in panic.

" Alright, I don't think you know more anyway." Jia Hao pulled out his saber and blood gushed out.

" Son in Law!"

" What's happening here?"

When the four guards of the Cai Family returned, they were stunned to see the two men inside the shop.

" Arrest them. Take the injured one to treatment and the other one to Ye Kong." Jia Hao wiped the blood off from his saber and sheathed it.

" Though, It's not a problem if this guy dies from injuries."

" As you say, Son in Law." The four of them cupped their fists and took them away.

" Well, Medieval times are surely good. One can easily get rough handed to get information." Jia Hao chuckled as he turned to leave.

Soon after, he met Luo Qiang who arrived to see Jia Hao.

" Brother Jia, I found something!" Luo Qiang spoke in a deep voice. " It looks like something strange is happening with the Blood Axe Gang."

" I have gathered some information and realized that most of the members of the Blood Axe Gang aren't currently in town. But strange enough, they are appearing to be confident." Luo Qiang frowned.

" I wanted to investigate them more, but without infiltration, I can't gather much." Luo Qiang sighed.

' Hmm, According to his original fate, Luo Qiang is supposed to sneak into the Blood Axe Gang tonight and get killed.'

' However, now I can see it's been erased. Looks like my presence here changed his early demise.' Jia Hao pondered.

" You know what? You don't need to infiltrate. Just go barge straight into the Blood Axe Gang with Brother Ye." Jia Hao grinned. " After all, we already have some sweet evidence."

" However, we better wait for the right moment." Jia Hao looked at the street with amusement.

" After all, catching a bigger fish requires patience."

Although after arresting both killers, due to Jia Hao's plan, Ye Kong and the Scaled Dragon Guards didn't make any moves. They pretended to search for the killers till days passed.

The Blood Axe Gang was the biggest underground gang in Qingyang County. Although it appeared to be a martial dojo on the outside, its members were involved in all crimes in the county.

With Jia Hao's investigations, he realized that the leader of the Blood Axe Gang and others weren't in the estate.

And that night, Jia Hao gathered everyone.

" Tonight, We are going to the Green Sprite Forest."
