But just thinking about how this badge of mine might have been tracked by President Sister, going straight to Forbidden Fruit Street to swap houses immediately seems very suspicious.

No way! I can't go directly. Following normal logic, since I'm back in town, shouldn't I check in on our members like Nan, Shoe Angel, Wine Angel first?

Then chat with them about the house stuff, intentionally letting them in on it, so even if President Sister asks later, I can say they provided the business intel!

Once Chun figured it out, he immediately turned to find Shoe Angel first. It's been days since they've seen each other, wonder how his business is doing?

Chun conveniently opened the commerce panel to check his financials... A red downward arrow! Holy Shit, it's like a bear market, losing money every day! What's going on here?

Chun hurriedly went to his shoe stand, suddenly realizing the storefront was much fancier. A group of Banshees and Enchanting Demons were sitting around his shoe stand barefoot, giggling, with small tables and fruit platters on top!

As for Shoe Angel, he was surrounded by... a pile of shoes! Completely lost in bliss, radiating a colorful glow~~~

Chun was stunned! He could only hold one shoe before, and now he can hold a bunch? Has he banked on the association covering his back, so he's just showing off?

Alright then! Seeing his state, it's unclear what level he reached in his peculiar skills, worth nurturing.

But these Banshees recognized Chun, giggling as they directly put their bare white feet on Chun's face, rubbing: "Isn't this the brave President Vonima!"

"Heard you toppled two gangs in Ox Head City and even stirred up Dark Moon City!"

"President is so mighty, let me reward President with a fragrant foot~~"

Holy crap, what's so fragrant~~~

Chun hurriedly said: "Shoe Angel, once you're done with this batch, prepare to pack up, we're heading out to move some minerals..."

Chun decided since some minerals in storage would be swapped with the new house later, and there's nothing else to do, might as well move more minerals. Have all three angels pack up and act as bodyguards.

But Shoe Angel seemed completely absorbed, not hearing?

Chun urged: "Shoe Angel!"

Yet the Banshees were laughing, joining in: "Shoe Angel, President is here, telling you to finish up and then pack up to mine..."

Shoe Angel absentmindedly said: "Got it..."

Holy crap! Can't hear a man's words, such manners...

Forget it, just notify everyone in the commerce channel to prepare to head out.

Next moment, all members started greeting.

Commerce channel [Nan]: "Got it, finishing up shortly!"

Commerce channel [Wine Angel]: "Ah, finally, something to do."

Commerce channel [Black Dragon Envoy Bobona]: "Ah, I also can't stand the office anymore, I really want to go."

Chun chuckled: "Then go!"

Bobona sighed: "Can't do that, if the Lord finds out, I'll get punished."

Everyone was astonished: "He can find out from so far away?"

"Of course..."

While everyone was blathering, Chun was pondering how to bring up the house topic—alright, he didn't move on the spot, too lazy after a face massage, well, actually, he couldn't move, force control!

Forget it, just directly say it in the channel: "I heard there's a boss on a certain street who wants to trade a house for mineral crystals?"

Everyone was astonished: "Really?"

Chun was confused: "Let me ask again!"

So Chun asked the face-rubbing Banshees: "I heard in the commerce channel that there's a street where a boss wants to trade a house for minerals, do you know about this?"

The Banshees were baffled: "No, I don't think so..."

So, this house was indeed arranged by Maria specially for me, as a reward for handling Beelzebub?

Chun continued chatting in the commerce: "They're saying on the street..."

In summary, the street says, the commerce says, both sides are clueless, both sides think the other knows, ultimately turning baseless rumors into reliable sources, even if President Sister wants to investigate, there's no way to trace it back, right?

Chun managed to bluff both sides well enough and left: "I'm going to check it out..."

So Chun finally made his way to Forbidden Fruit Street, but it's not the main street, just an alley with establishments that aren't very proper, not as classy as the main street.

Fine, after all, it's just cleaning a toilet, this reward fits.

Chun found door number 118, which looked quite old, and knocked.

An Enchanting Demon opened the door with a charming laugh: "Please come in!"

Upon entering, a dim corridor resembling a late-night foot massage parlor. Chun felt a little...

The Enchanting Demon pointed to an old painting on the wall: "Look at the painting, sir, the priest reading in the painting, his book pages' text will change, which is actually the chamber's password, and the password changes each time, you'll know when it happens..."

With the Enchanting Demon entering the secret code, a hidden door appeared, opening the secret door.

"Enter!"

Inside, a dazzling glow of luxurious home décor hit face-on, much more grand than Aileen's imitation of Count's Mansion!

Chun was astonished: "Inside here..."

The Enchanting Demon laughed: "Couldn't tell from outside, right? Want it?"

Chun repeatedly nodded: "I want it!"

The Enchanting Demon directly pulled out a stack of golden shiny documents: "This is the property title deed, in exchange for all your current stock of Purple Crystal Ore!"

Chun's eyes widened, although he already had two villas, they were only temporary and borrowed. This is the first time encountering a real property title deed! It's truly mine now!"

"Deal!"

The Enchanting Demon laughed: "Let's go! To the property registration office, finalize with the Mining Commerce Association..."

Chun didn't quite understand the process, but chose to trust unconditionally: "Okay!"

Thus, going through the process, Chun directly transferred all his warehouse content to a business named "Tears of Heaven."

So is Tears of Heaven Maria's business? Or just her alias for operations?

In the end, the trade was completed!

— System Notification: Congratulations! You traded commerce assets to acquire the luxurious apartment at 118 Forbidden Fruit Street. You received the property title deed for 118 Forbidden Fruit Street, with a residential quota of 10 people. The apartment is a commerce asset; you can assign residential members from the commerce.

— System Notification: Congratulations! You've gained a 10% attribute boost from the apartment at 118 Forbidden Fruit Street.

Another 10% boost!

Although compared to the 30% and 35% boosts of the two villas, this falls quite short, but earlier, the Whale's Strength was also only a 10% boost, this 10% might just be the upper limit for regular luxury residences!

Now the question arises, for the 10 residence slots in the apartment, definitely 5 mercenaries, 3 angels, plus my nine major shareholders to move in! Who gets this last spot?

Black Dragon Envoy? The newly joined Silver City Angel? Or... the least likely spot for the Vice President Uriel?

If he gets it, it's bringing a wolf into the house!

If he doesn't get it, how would he think as a player? If I were him, in a 9-out-of-1 scenario, I'd surely suspect a programming error somewhere...

Forget it, don't dwell on it now, after all, only 3 angels are in town, add them in later when heading out to mine, otherwise, if they get excited and celebrate in the commerce channel, Black Dragon Envoy might overhear—not good either way!

Holy crap, ancient sages had "two peaches kill three warriors," now there's 9 out of 1 available slots!!
