After seperating from the two leaders of the organisations of sin, Elena walked around the wrath section for a little bit more before leaving it and going to the pride section. While stepping foot inside it, Elena remembered the information that the Raul had shared with her about this place.
As Elena was helping them out with an important work, Raul had given Elena some general information about the pride section. According to that, even though there was no official declaration about it, the visitors of the pride section had divided it into two types of areas.
One type area had gaudy buildings made using gemstones and valuable metals. While on the other hand, the second area had ancient and solemn looking buildings which exuded dignity and grace. The unofficial name of these two areas were "Bad Taste Area" and "Good Taste Area".
The pride section also did not have many shops and such. The people who were inhabiting it were too prideful to serve any customers. But this section still got a lot of visitors because this section had various exhibitions.
Actually these exhibition were there for the prideful inhabitants of this section to boast to one another. But during this process, a lot of rare and valuable treasures were brought out it the world, so this was something that the general population was enjoyed a lot.
Elena was also interested to check out those valuable treasures. Who knows, there might be one that even she would find interesting. But before that, Elena was planning to do some investigation first.
After the overlords of the pride section had started to work with the greedy merchants from of the Dark Gold Treaty, a few buildings of the pride section were given to them by the Ruler Assembly to use as a base. This was something that Donovon had told Elena.
So Elena was planning to infiltrate one such base as there was a high possibility that a base like that would have a lot of useful information. But for that happen, she first needed to find out the location of the base before anything else.
...
Elena's first destination here was a cafe called "Sweet Nature". This was one of the rare cafe located in the pride section. The owner of this place took pride in her position as the best patisseir in the world. So instead of opening this shop in the Gluttony Section, she had opened it here.
This was also something that Raul had told her about. Elena was now happy that she had taken the task or she might have missed out on such an amazing food place. This cafe had a strict dress code, so before entering it, Elena booked a super expensive room in a super luxurious inn and made sure to wear appropriate clothing which was a beautiful red open back dress.
Elena in such a dress was a beautiful sight that made many people to turn their heads. But Elena did not pay any attention to the gossip that was happening behind her and her ears were only searching about gossips about the Dark Gold Treaty.
The cafe in question was located inside a beautiful garden. This area of the city was part of the good taste area. After Elena passed the strict dress code taste and the super strict manner taste, she was finally brought to one of the tables. Normally Elena was not very fond of acting in an unnatural manner. But for the sake of tasty sweets, this was something she was willing to do.
One person was only allowed to order a limited number of dishes here which made Elena a bit disappointed. But the reason behind this rule was very solid so Elena could only agree. With limited number of orders, the great patisseir would be able to focus on only making the best possible dishes without rashing the process.l so that the food would be of the best possible quality. This was a very good reason in Elena's opinion.
As Elena waited for her dishes to be served, she graceful sat on the chair and listened to what others were saying. Other than eating the tasty sweets, this was also one of the reasons why Elena had came here. But obviously sweets were the main reason without any doubt.
Elena had not really expected to find something useful just from random conversation but it turned out that Elena's luck on this day was exceptionally good. Unlike her table, most of the other ones had at least two people and almost all of them were elegantly smiling while talking with one another.
In one such table with three ladies, Elena heard that one of the ladies was complaining about her superior in the Ruler Assembly. As for the reason of her complaint, it was the disregard of her worries about working with the Dark Gold Treaty.
From their conversation, Elena learnt that all three ladies sitting on that table were powerful rulers of various nations and were also a member of the rulers assembly. As her pride was hurt for being dismissed so easily, that complaining lady was in a very bad mood.
Even though they those ladies were discussing about such a secretive topic in a public place, they were not being reckless with this. They were using a very powerful barrier to prevent others from eavesdropping on their conversation. So currently, it was only Elena here who was able to hear what they were saying.
From this amazing opportunity, Elena came to know a lot about the deal between the Dark Gold Treaty and the Ruler Assembly. It looked like a decent amount of members of the Ruler Assembly were also not comfortable making a deal with the shady Dark Gold Treaty. But as most of the higher ups had agreed to this including the leader of the pride organisation, they had no choice but to obey.
Unfortunately for Elena, they did not mentioned anything about where the base of the Dark Gold Treaty was. But from them, Elena at least came to know about a person who would know where this place was as that man was responsible for assigning the bases to the Dark Gold Treaty people. So Elena's next mission was to find this person.
That should not be a hard work as this man was supposed to be very famous. So asking around a little bit should be enough to at least find him. As for how to make him talk, Elena had many methods suitable for that.
After making her future plans, Elena focused in the sweets which were served to her. They were without a doubt extremely good and worthy of being one of the best in the world. It was hard to compare between the other good sweets she had eaten in the festival of sin but the soft cake here would definitely be among the top three. The chef here was comparable to the Kings of Flavours in terms of her cooking mastery.
Then with a satisfied heart and contented palate, Elena left the cafe to search for Lucas, a king of a small but prosperous nation.
