Chapter 311: Information Purchase
Janna Patel smiled softly. "Well, then, come on, let's go up to my office. There's the best tea there." After saying that, she looked at the Miss, who was surprised and nodded to her.
"Keep up the good work."
So they both went upstairs and a while later, they drank tea.
The tea was not good, but Matt said nothing this time.
"Young Master, did you come here just to enjoy the good deal? I'm honestly not against serving you any way you want, but it seems to me that you're a bit busy. These days, you haven't even attended classes. It seems that being a genius in many fields is a difficult bring."
"I want information on the Webb Family and, if you can, the Low Deal Organization." Matt ignored her question and teasing; after sipping some tea, he got straight to the point.
She frowned slightly and put the glass on the table. Then she got up, went to the desk in the middle of the room, got some documents from there, and sat back down.
"Investigating Low Deal is very complicated, Young Sir. The price will not be low if you want information from one of the most powerful organizations in the empire." She said, glancing over the documents.
Matt didn't answer her; he just stared at her. After a bit of reading, she picked out a couple of documents.
"The Webb's are a slightly powerful family in the Nevod Mountains. They are known thanks to a few Grand Sorcerers they have, but they are not really dangerous. They have several weaknesses, such as their children of the current generation, who didn't turn out as talented as their parents." After saying that, she handed him the documents.
"It's all the information on the Webbs. Where they are and what they are currently doing. Plus, how much power their leaders have."
Matt frowned and grabbed it.
He read the documents and realized they contained very good information—much more than he expected. There was information of all kinds about the Webbs, including where they usually stayed when they came to Spirit City and even the exact time of year they usually came.
It was such complete information that it made Matt think that this woman before him was dangerous.
She had too much information from a family that didn't seem to be very weak.
'Either she's a natural at getting information, or she's got a great team behind her. Whichever it is, she's an amazing woman.' He thought and nodded to her, but before he could speak, she did.
"Actually, there is more recent information than what you read there." She spoke.

Matt raised his eyelids a little. "If you put it that way, I guess it's prized information. Just name your price; I have no problem paying it," he replied, and she smiled.
"I didn't know half-elves were so good and rich."
"There are a lot of things in this world you don't know. I guess that's normal."
She laughed a little at this and stopped joking.
"I won't charge you anything, but I will warn you. I don't know how powerful you are, but if you want to take revenge for something with the Webbs, you should think twice. Go to this place in 8 hours; make sure you go in camouflage as powerful people might be there. Then, judge whether you can mess with them or not. I can only tell you that they have also been investigating you for a few days now.
So be careful." She said, and she handed him a small piece of paper with a written address.
Matt was surprised at her generosity, but she stood up and turned her back to him.
"I will get Low Deal information for you. All I ask as payment is that you accept me into your inner circle of friendship. So you can come back."
Few more words, Matt left the room and rented a hotel room in the city.
'This is near the poor areas of the city. It's a desolate place out there.' Looking at the address Janna Patel had given him, Matt wondered what would happen there in 8 hours.
He was patient and waited 7 hours until he left.
Soon after, he was at the right place, on top of an abandoned building with a huge hole in the center.
When he arrived, he could see a person in the dark waiting.
'Oh? He's using spirits to camouflage himself, but he's not that good.' Matt thought and smiled.
About 10 minutes later, some people arrived from other entrances of the Building and greeted him respectfully.
"Mr. Warlock, the investigation of Zen Varrmar and Aelia Varrmar is going smoothly on our end, but we have discovered almost nothing. They are both half-elves from the outskirts of the empire. Our Webb Family is working on finding their family, but recently, three of our relatives have gone missing; someone is attacking us." Said one of those who had just arrived.
His words then stretched out, explaining the situation to the man who decided to show himself and used a black cloak to cover himself.
After hearing all this, he frowned and shook his head. "Forget it; I thought you wouldn't be able to find much, so I decided to hire a professional in the field. Besides, we have important help this time, so the information will come naturally.
Wait a while to introduce the professional to you; you guys have a lot of money and strength but waste it on nothing; it's better to spend it buying information from professionals."
After that little conversation, from which Matt learned several things, everything returned to normal for a while.
Just like that, about 45 minutes later, a different person showed up.
Janna Patel?' Matt thought and understood. 'She's the professional in the field... Will she sell information about me?' Matt thought and smiled.
She didn't know any real information from Matt, so it wasn't detrimental. But only now did he understand what she wanted him to see.
After arriving, the people present greeted her, and the Warlock bestowed a few things on her.
Janna smiled at this. "The Night Warlock certainly is someone rich. But this time, he seems to be getting a lot of help on this. I see that Zen Varrmar is quite important to you," she said, smiling softly.
The people before her shrugged, and the caped man stood before her.
"Money well spent is always good money. Mrs. Patel, I think you're so professional in your field that you won't leave me waiting too long, will you?" he asked, and Janna smiled.
"No, actually, I already knew you would come looking for me for this, so I brought everything I know about him." After saying this and leaving the people in front of her in shock, she handed them a document that contained some information.
"Lately, he has been being protected. Maybe they discovered your movements. Still, if you use your contacts inside the Academy, maybe you can create an opportunity to set a trap for him." She said and sighed, seeing them so thoughtful.
"Gentlemen, don't be so slow in your actions. Every minute that passes is a danger to you." She said, holding out her hand to them amicably.
"It has been a pleasure working with you. I'll take my leave here." She said, smiling softly. Then she turned and left.
A few minutes later, those who were still in the Building secretly left and disappeared into the darkness. But Matt didn't move from where he stood.
"I didn't expect you to have such good hiding skills, Miss Patel." Matt said, smiling softly, and she appeared again, this time near Matt.
