In the meeting, Alessia proposed a plan first as the leader of the team. She suggested that they should target some of the high ranking members of the Cross of Ferocity first before anything. Those members would surely have more detailed information and might even know about the item they were looking for.

The other team members thought about the plan and found it to be quite good. So they agreed to it. But this plan alone was not good enough as it would be quite unlikely for them to find a high ranking member of the Cross in the street. So even though they would put this plan in the back of their mind but they still needed a more proper plan.

Next it was Nina who spoke up. She proposed a plan to go and check out the warehouse that they had learnt about from the goat headed man. Obviously as the scout of the team, Nina was ready to do this all by herself.

But the rest of the team members did not agreed to this plan as it was very dangerous. They had already learnt that the security in these warehouses was extremely tough. They also knew that there was high possibility that the Cross of Ferocity might have a S rank powerhouse. For this reason, going to the warehouse was extremely dangerous for an A ranker like Nina.

But Nina was confident that if she did not get too close to the S ranker and did not directly attract his attention, she would be able to avoid his detection. Nina was not being arrogant by saying this but she had actually tested out various things with Alessia and was speaking based on the result of the tests.

After some more persuasion, finally Alessia, Marina and Shia agreed to Nina's proposal. But Nina was not allowed to infiltrate the warehouse and was just going to check the security measure of the place out. Nina really wanted to infiltrate to see if that item in question was there or not but she gave up on this idea about seeing the worried face of her partners.

Other than these two plans, Shia also proposed a plan to gather information from the other powerful gangs. The Three Nights was not a big organisation but still they knew a decent amount about the Cross of Ferocity. So there was a high chance that the other powerful organisations would also have a decent amount of information about this group.

Hearing this plan, Marina was immediately ready to capture some criminals and to interrogate them again. She was hoping that next time she would be able to impress Elena more with her interrogation technique and would managed to get a unique reward from her.

But Shia stopped the hyper excited Marina and told her that, they did not need to always to get the information by beating. They could also get the information by buying it for a proper price. Shia was sure that in a lawless city like this, there were definitely establishments that sold information and even the most secretive ones.

...

After finalising their plans going forward, the ladies decided to start their work from the next day. As for today, they were planning to spent the whole day having fun with Elena while checking out the city.

On their journey, Alessia and her team had came across quite a few lawless and dangerous cities like this. But all of them were located in the human and beastkin nations. So now that they had a chance to check a lawless city of the demon continent, the ladies were excited to see how this city would be different from the human ones.

...

After coming out of the inn, they all started to randomly walk around the city without any exact destination in mind. Even though the city had a bad reputation, just by looking at it, no one would be able to immediately guess for that to be the case.

The streets were quite clean and there were no beggars lying on the side of the road. Just this much was enough to make this place way better than the human lawless cities which were filled with unfortunate people.

Actually the demon continent had almost no beggars. For demons who worshipped strength above all, just sitting around waiting for someone's kindness was not something they felt comfortable with. There were still a few beggars as not every demons were the same and some among them had different mindset.

But about a few hundred years ago, a group of S rank demons went into a rampage killing any beggar they came across. As for their reason, they had none. Those S rankers just felt irritated by the beggars one day and decides to exterminate them.

The beggars actually had no right in the demon society. For that reason, there was no one who would take justice for them. After this incident, many cruel demons started to find beggars and made them their plaything. This made all the other beggars to be fearful and they all stopped being beggars. That was how beggars had completely disappeared from the demon continent.

Elena told the Azure Legion girls about this history and they were extremely surprised by it. If something similar happened in the human continent then those S rankers would be blacklisted and the nation where the killing had happened might even become their enemy. So after learning that nothing had happened to the demon S rankers responsible for this incident, all the ladies were surprised.

...

After finding nothing criminal on their way, the girls soon got busy with shopping. But after checking out a few items, they quickly lost their interest. That was because the items were of low quality but their price was sky high. Buying anything here was just throwing away money.

Elena was not someone who cared about costs and such. But here even she did not buy anything. That was because all the items here were of very low quality. Elena was not interested in any of them.

But still Elena felt bad for not buying any gifts for her cute younger sisters after coming out on a walk, so she started to search for a shop which at least have items of decent quality. She was not really worried about the cost of the item if the quality was to her liking.

After some time, Elena suddenly noticed a small shop. It was selling handmade accessories and the quality of the items here was quite decent. But that was not the main reason why this shop attracted Elena and all the other lady's attention.

Just looking at the other shops of this city, it was clear to even a child that the people behind them were criminals. Most of the shopkeeper were either extremely scared or extremely shady. But this shop was different. It gave off the aura of a proper shop. Which was not anything special in any other cities but for this city, this shop looked exceptional.

Elena and the other ladies entered the shop with curiousity and was welcomed by a cute sheep horned demon girl. She looked to be only 15 or 16 years old and had a cheerful smile on her face.

Even a dumb person could understand how wierd it was for a young girl like her to manage a shop alone in a lawless city like this. Not only that but the genuine cheerful smile on her face was something that was hard to find in the city. This made all the ladies even more interested in the shop and the shopkeeper girl.

So what was up with this shop ?
