章節 293: Investigate-Second Half

— Meanwhile - Veneziale Estate —

In the opulent common room of the guest wing in the Veneziale estate, an unsettling scene unfolded. Several individuals lay on the floor, their mouths filled with blood, teeth almost broken, and faces discolored with black and blue marks—a clear indication of severe injuries sustained during a beating.

These individuals were the ones involved in the shenanigans, roughed up by their comrades who, aware of the consequences, took matters into their own hands. However, a phone call from Odysseus reporting to the director spared them from a more dire fate. While they bore serious bruises, their lives were not endangered.

Don Veneziale fared worse, his cut reduced by half—from 40% to a mere 20% of the profits he accrued from occupying the dock and auctioning low-grade artifacts from the Atlanteus base.
