In the city.

Serra recalled his darling wife's words when she told Serra her method of gathering information. On a side note, the other two have also used this method and guarantee it's effectiveness.

He didn't originally like this idea but when this was further explained...

He changed his mind.

If his friends and his lover says so, why should he doubt them?

Being skeptical is a good habit.

But with proof in his eyes, why should he hesitate?

Could this be a case where, 'Love is blind'?

Unfortunately, regardless of the age or status of the ones afflicted, this disease affects them all with 100% accuracy.

And so, Serra decides to use Aura's method of gathering information.

Aura's method of gathering information was quite simple.

Yet it had a rather clever and well-thought of approach.

Still, the method of gathering information is executed by...

Attacking underworld organizations and taking information from them.

Indeed... This is quite despicable and rude.

However, underworld organizations deal with crime.

They do things like assasinations, robbery, kidnapping and other crimes so they shouldn't complain when this happens to them.

Hence, as Aura said,

"Since they're criminals, they should be prepared to have the same crimes afflicted to them. They do evil deeds everyday without cause for concern, they're ruled out."

This is a clear case of double standards so Serra was hesitant but Aura and the others succeeded in convincing him in the end that since it's criminals, not innocents, then there's no problem.

For a more detailed explanation, Aura said this:

"When gathering information, it's fine to speak to commoners but they usually only know the local news and some major news that were already filtered by major powers and aren't worth knowing that much. To get detailed information about the world, you can speak to scholars who are knowledgeable of history or check the library. It's a simple matter to learn their language and master it. However, most of that knowledge are filtered as well and are written under the orders of those above and don't possess any crucial information. They have to worry whether or not that major power would come after them after all. Thus, the best way to gather accurate information, is to go to the underworld organizations and take their information. They hardly care about others as they operate from the shadows and thus possess unaltered information. In the underworld, information is just as valuable as treasure."

From these words, Serra decided to trust his wife's judgement.

And thus, Serra decided to attack an underworld organization to gather information.

At present, Serra was standing in front of a scar-faced man who was glaring at him.

"Who the hell are you!?"

He roared.

His base was attacked and his subordinates beaten one by one until the intruder finally arrives.

And the intruder is actually a delicate-looking young boy!?

"Just a passing traveler. I need information so I came to take it from you."

"What!? Like hell we will you shameless bastard!"

He grew even angrier.

Even the boss of an underworld organization has his pride.

He won't go down without a fight.

"Sigh... So I'll have to use this then."

Serra unleashed his aura upon them.

Instantly, they cowered in fear.

They couldn't even think properly.

Damm it! How could such a thing happen to us!?

They roared in fury at their own hearts.
