After hearing that Vocgo was involved, Andrew couldn't help but put a serious expression on his face. In fact, more than serious it was coldness, his thoughts were evident.It was not at all unusual for Andrew to take this attitude upon hearing the name of Vocgo since it was this man who orchestrated the attack on Candice when the war between the empire of Cannaris and the kingdom of Tripia was in its beginnings. He was also a food merchant and was among the first group that supplied the empire's army according to the plan they had designed at the time. Candice had been retired from this group and this man was the one who benefited the most from this situation. In short, he was a competitor of Candice, however, he was a vicious man who would use any means to achieve his goals. From the moment he attacked Candice, Shadow's agents had been searching for his whereabouts, but to date had not been able to locate him. For this reason, Andrew and Oliver thought that this man was not simple. However, this was not entirely true. Certainly, Vocgo is not an ordinary character, however, this does not mean that for this reason, he had been able to hide from Shadow's agents. What Andrew and Oliver didn't know was that since Vocgo was part of the first group of merchants that the empire gathered to supply them during the war, the empire was protecting him. Continue reading at мѵʟ Andrew's Shadow agents are experts in gathering information, so it is difficult to escape their network, however, in the face of the power and influence of Emperor Augustus and his aides, they are still weak, so it was not strange that they could not find a clue to this man. However, the war was over and the empire no longer protected these merchants. While it is true that thanks to the help they provided, the empire owed them a certain debt, things were not as complex as they seemed. Despite their help, the empire would not give them special treatment, since all of these merchants benefited from being included in this group. Since they were the first merchants and since they were directly contacted by the empire, they obviously made a lot of money. It was for this reason that currently, the empire did not protect them, nor did it owe them anything. While it may seem cruel, this is the world they live in, plus the amount of money they earned was not small. If Candice, who arrived much later, was still able to make a small fortune, these merchants earned more, because they had time to prepare and their products were sold first.

"Shadow agents followed Oslo and to their surprise found him meeting with Vocgo," Oliver said. Andrew remained silent waiting for Oliver to continue. Noticing this, Oliver did not delay and continued his report, "We still do not know the depth of their relationship, but Oslo, upon leaving the establishment, went to the noble district to meet Vocgo." "Is Vocgo a noble?" Andrew asked worriedly because if this were the case, the situation would be complicated. Andrew was not afraid of him, but if he was a noble, things could get complicated, because killing a noble would cause problems. If he carried out this operation he was sure that the empire would treat him as an enemy and that would be problematic. Andrew was not naïve enough to believe that the Empire would have no way of finding out that he was the one who carried out this assassination. Although they could easily flee to the kingdom of Dunnas and even if they did not flee, inside the Palace of Cannaris they could not harm them. The problem would be with Candice's business. If they moved forward with this plan she would be lost without a doubt. In short, her career as a merchant of the Cannaris empire would be over. However, Oliver shook his head at Andrew's words. "No, he is not a noble. According to Shadow's agents, just like Madam Candice, these merchants who helped the empire in the war received a villa in the noble district," Oliver said. Hearing this, Andrew relaxed a little, but Oliver's next words made him tense again, "However, the fact that he resides in the noble district is problematic." Andrew understood what Oliver meant. The noble district and the royal district were special zones. Since the nobles and the royal family lived in those places, carrying out an operation in these places would alert the empire. Simply put, although assassinating Vocgo would not bring much trouble, doing so in the noble district was quite the opposite. Understanding this, Andrew asked, "What do you suggest?". "Honestly, I think we shouldn't move for the moment. We should wait to see what they have planned before acting. Although we would be a little passive if they move first, it would give us an excuse to take dams, thus avoiding problems with the empire," Oliver immediately said. Andrew nodded and said, "Okay, we'll go with your plan, however, stay vigilant and don't let them take too much ground." Oliver nodded at Andrew's words, telling him that he knew what had to be done. After a brief conversation, the carriage arrived at Cannaris Palace and Andrew immediately headed to the office after instructing Oliver to gather everyone there. This included Andrew's wives, Castor, Vala, and even Sonia. Although many of them were not needed at this meeting, Andrew had adopted the habit of reporting these cases to his entire trusted group when they occurred. In fact, Gaston, Erick, and Canna should also be invited, but since they were not in the Cannaris Palace at the moment, they would have to be notified later. What they didn't know was that just as they were meeting to take preventive measures against these two, Vocgo and Oslo were also meeting planning to attack them. While Shadow's agents had managed to discover these two locations, they could not infiltrate Vocgo's property. Although in terms of overall strength, Andrew had greater strength, Vocgo, and Oslo were not weak and had some experts at their sides. For this reason, Shadow's agents were only able to monitor Vocgo's mansion from the outskirts, without fully understanding how deep the relationship between the two was, much less what they were planning. It turns out that Oslo and Vocgo were not just acquaintances. They were close friends and although it was hard to believe that two people with such cruel and calculating personalities were actually friends, reality is sometimes stranger than fiction. These two were not only close friends but genuine ones. Despite being distrustful of everyone, they were sincere among themselves. Maybe their cruel personality and similar thoughts had brought them closer, the point is that they are willing to support each other even in difficult problems. Inside the mansion, in a large study full of books, Vocgo and Oslo met. They were chatting like old friends over a glass of wine. After some jocular greetings and small talk, Oslo asked, "Vocgo, do you know a guy named Andrew? He owns a pleasure house called Paradise." Although those who knew Andrew would associate him with Cannaris Palace, it was no secret that the Paradise pleasure house was also his property, just Oslo was not from the city and did not know it. "Yes, I know him. In fact, we have a certain enmity," Vocgo responded, wrinkling his eyebrows, as he did not expect his friend to mention that name. Noticing Vocgo's gaze, Oslo asked again, "Enmity? What do you mean?". "Well, one of his wives is a grocery merchant and I organized an attack on her a while ago, but I failed and well you get the idea," Vocgo responded with a serious tone and added, "Why do you ask?". Then Oslo proceeded to tell him everything that had happened, without adding unpleasant details. They've known each other for a long time, so there's no need to add lies. Vocgo immediately understood what was happening. He was silent for a while and then asked, "Do you want to deal with him?", to which Oslo replied, "You know me. When I see something that interests me and that will make me money, I don't let it go." Vocgo nodded, understanding his friend's words, but still warned him, "If you want to continue with your plans, I advise you to be cautious." Vocgo's warning made Oslo wrinkle his eyebrows and ask, "Do you know something?" "That guy is not simple. Not only does he have a couple of powerful experts under him, but he runs a pleasure house called the Heavenly Palace too, and more importantly, he seems to have a master alchemist under him," said Vocgo. Then he told Oslo about rejuvenating creams, tissue repair creams, and even vitality drinks and birth control pills. Oslo was surprised because he had already researched these products, however, he had given up because he did not believe he could be part of them, but now the situation was different. He now wanted to deal with Andrew more, because if he was successful, he would not only get the Nuru gel but all the other formulas of these very special products. With this thought, he expressed his plans to Vocgo trying to gain his support.
