A mysterious figure in a black robe arrives at Kakasong City under the cover of night. The figure discreetly enters a tavern, orders food and drink, and discreetly inquires about the location of the Church.

By now, the Riverside Rest Tavern has become well-known around Kakasong City.

Hunter has been selling alcohol at Fisherman’s Wharf for nearly thirty to forty years.

What kind of people hasn’t Hunter met?

Porters, cleaners, loading apprentices, sailors, boatmen, thieves, bandits, pirates...

Even wealthy merchants and noble lords!

The man in the black robe in front of him, as long as he can pay for consumption.

Afterwards.

Whatever the man in the black robe wants to do is none of Hunter’s business!

Until more than half an hour later.

The man in the black robe, sitting in the corner, finished the drinks and food on the table.

Under Hunter’s gaze from behind the bar.

The man in the black robe tightened the robe around him and walked out of the tavern.

Finally, he disappeared around the dark corner.

Casually withdrawing his gaze, Hunter looked at the young man who was clearing the tableware on the square table and spoke.

"Sam, you’ll be managing the tavern for the next few days."

The young man called Sam had a look of surprise on his face and was about to speak.

But was silenced by Hunter’s deep gaze.

Sam instantly understood, glanced at the few remaining patrons in the tavern, and closed his mouth.

He went to the kitchen and put down the tableware in his hands.

Sam stepped out, came beside Hunter at the bar, and lowered his voice.

"Father, are you going to that Lord’s territory again to purchase and exchange for gin?"

Hunter pondered for a moment, then sighed lightly.

"Mm, there’s not much of the gin and beer purchased in the warehouse."

"We must quickly acquire more alcohol to ensure the tavern’s continued operation..."

Sam nodded slightly and responded.

"Father, you’ve been selling alcohol for so many years; with your experience and skills, haven’t you learned how to produce Lexus Gin?"

"If you could learn to make it, you could completely brew and produce it yourself!"

Hunter impatiently gave Sam a look and said in a deep voice.

"If your old man had the brewing skills, would I need your reminder?"

"Lin... that Lord has brewing skills your father has never seen or heard of!"

"Just by tasting, how could one possibly know the procedures and key secrets?"

Feeling Hunter’s impatience, Sam did not dare to question further.

Hunter continued: "Before dawn, arrange for someone to load the previously purchased goods onto the cart."

"As soon as your father wakes from resting, depart immediately!"

Sam quickly replied: "Yes, father."

Hunter glanced at the three middle-aged men in the tavern who were drinking.

Without saying a word, he turned towards the staircase leading upstairs.

Those three middle-aged men were spies sent by Lord Lynn to Kakasong City to gather information.

However.

Hunter is not bothered by this.

These spies came to his tavern, and they paid for their food and drink accordingly.

Whether as tavern patrons or to show sincerity to Master Lynn.

Hunter would never drive them out of the Riverside Rest Tavern.

Instead.

Because of their arrival, it can increase the tavern’s popularity.

If there is a dispute or fight in the tavern, they can help.

As for transporting goods tomorrow morning, heading to Morgan Town, heading to Master Lynn’s territory...

Thoughts quickly turned in Hunter’s mind.

Even though Viscount Jon Zack was buried by Master Lynn in the fire of Lorraine.

But with the tense situation inside Kakasong City.

Residents are anxious, fearing Master Lynn’s army will attack Kakasong City.

The city’s major forces are eager to try.

Simo Tucker, the Church Bishop, is even preparing to declare himself the new leader of Kakasong City after tomorrow’s prayer ceremony...

If, amidst such tension, he leads the carts directly to Morgan Town.

It would surely attract the attention of those with designs, even leading to an attack on him and his tavern!

It’s important to know.

’Fire of Lorraine’ is not just a nickname.

It also represents the resistance and fear of Kakasong City’s residents towards Master Lynn!

Very quickly.

Hunter thought of a solution.

Jon Zack and his supporter, the Manor Lord, have already been defeated by Master Lynn.

He can completely lead the cart convoy, detour through Alba Town, then enter Morgan Town and Master Lynn’s territory!

Even if transporting by cart will increase the time and distance.

Yet doing so.

It can cover one’s tracks.

Passing through the towns controlled by the Manor Lord reduces the risk of a bandit attack!

Upon thinking of this.

Hunter’s heart slightly relaxed.

It is the best delivery method and plan Hunter can think of.

That is.

If previous Viscount Jon Zack had not fought with Master Lynn.

Otherwise, a few days ago, Hunter was ready to lead the cart convoy to Morgan Town.

What surprised and delighted Hunter was.

Master Lynn could think of using a forest fire attack to bury Viscount Jon Zack’s army in a sea of flames!

Master Lynn’s victory in the war.

For Hunter, is naturally a good thing!

He can continue to be Master Lynn’s exclusive alcohol distributor.

Purchase large quantities of Lexus Gin and beer, transport them back to the tavern for sale!

Perhaps.

Other cities might have better-tasting and higher-quality alcohol than Master Lynn.

However, Master Lynn’s territory is simply too close to Kakasong City.

Close enough that fully loaded carts can arrive within a few days!
