Chapter 1376: Chapter 760: Paradise and the Haunted House
“Oh well, I won’t get beaten until tonight anyway. There’s still a whole day to buffer, right? Maybe things will turn around. At worst, I can still enjoy this last day.”
“Yeah, today I must have some good fun. After all, this might be my last shopping trip ever.”
The homebody witch’s true nature kicked in again, and her super strong and optimistic mindset led her to gladly choose to let things go.
When the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten out. If it doesn’t, then let tonight’s me handle the things tonight. Right now, all I need is to enjoy myself before I die, have a satisfying meal, and then talk.
Immediately, she swiftly picked up the few katanas she had at her feet, meant to be a gift for Mother Dragon. After putting them away again, she looked at her sisters with a smile that had a transcendent look of seeing through life’s blues.
Hmm, there’s nothing more to fear; after all, it can’t get worse than this.
“So, where shall we go to play next? Any good recommendations?”
Dorothy looked at Madeline and Audrey beside her, asking expectantly.
This Night City was their sisters’ territory, so naturally, the job of being a tour guide would depend on them.
However, the succubus sisters glanced at each other and were at a loss for words.
Hmm, one is obsessed with training in the dojo daily, a martial arts fanatic, and the other is a late-stage social anxiety, introverted recluse. Neither of them is the type to go out often and engage in flashy play.
Where is the most fun in Night City is indeed a knowledge blind spot for them.
Yet, the Little Fox decided to give it a try. Although she seldom went out in the past, her theoretical knowledge wasn’t bad from surfing the Magic Net every day. So, she decided to go by Magic Net’s Night City travel guide rankings.
Hmm, let me think what the top-ranked Night City attraction is.
Got it….
Audrey searched through her memory for the daily shares of the current vibrant youngsters on the Magic Net, then her eyes lit up.
Just….
“I know, I know, sis, look at me, I’ve got it all clear. We can go to Mammon Paradise.”
Alice tugged on her sister’s sleeve and said very cheerfully.
And the Little Fox, who just wanted to control the Fox Doll to answer, immediately hung her head in frustration.
Wahhh, I got beaten to it.
She also wanted to suggest Mammon Paradise.
And Dorothy looked down at her sister beside her; only then did she remember that Alice was somewhat of a local too.
After all, before Anne and Adam remarried, the little witch was kind of a young lady of the Vampire Clan, having lived in Night City for a while.
Oh, this works too.
Originally, the homebody witch was struggling with how to get some intel on the Thirteen Vampire Clan Families from her stepmother to analyze whether Hermes’ deal was worth it.
But it seems now there’s no need to bother the stepmother; she can just ask Alice.
Hmm, the little witch is much easier to persuade than the stepmother. With a casual question, she might even reveal the color of her underwear today, as she’s almost defenseless against her.
Dorothy felt somewhat relieved in her heart, then her attention turned to this “Mammon Paradise.”
And Mammon as a name instantly made her frown.
This isn’t an ordinary name. This name usually refers to the Greedy Demon God Mammon among the Seven Sins Demon God of the Abyss, so this so-called Mammon Paradise is plainly a Demon God’s paradise.
This isn’t a place to go.
The homebody witch instinctively felt something was off.
Even though today’s Abyssal Demons are ruled by the Demon King, theoretically reducing their harmfulness significantly, the long-standing stereotype still makes people instinctively keep their distance from Demons. Their danger needs no further explanation; you might just end up counting money for someone even after being sold out.
Not to mention that this is a domain of an Original Sin Demon God.
Of course, Mammon Paradise can keep operating until today and seems to be well-known, indicating it should be a legitimate business, and no grand Demon God would bother paying attention to a few insignificant tourists.
But better safe than sorry.
Anyway, Dorothy’s Inspiration ticked, and she instinctively felt there’s something fishy about this Mammon Paradise.
However, she looked around at her sisters and found that it seemed like nobody else had any objections. Especially since the most reliable Senior Mia seemed very interested, so she couldn’t really say much.
Hmm, come to think of it, the Greedy Demon God Mammon supposedly controls the economy of the Abyss, being a major financial oligarch monopolizing most of the Abyss’s wealth. His Greed Pot Trading Company is also one of the Golden Country’s strong competitors, where Senior Mia’s family is from.
Presently, the four major oligarchs in the Western Universe are the Great Dragon’s Holy Dragon Alliance, the Demon’s Greed Pot, the witch’s Golden Country, and the Angel’s Wings of Dawn.
The Holy Dragon Alliance primarily focuses on traditional physical banking, mainly dealing in safeguarding and lending.
The Greed Pot focuses on the entertainment industry; they engage in any business relating to entertainment and desires, regardless of good or bad.
The Golden Country is somewhat omnipotent, but its core emphasis is still on the alchemical manufacturing industry, expanding based on this to touch on everything.
As for the Wings of Dawn, those angel investors play with financial credit, casting wide nets of angel funds and heaven’s stock market all around.
From this perspective, this Mammon Paradise indeed seems quite promising, because in the entertainment industry, the demons are professionals. Whether or not there are traps inside, it will certainly be very fun.
