The topic of brothels had been quite problematic for many wealthy nobles who tied themselves to the idea that visiting such places would severely tarnish their reputation and, you know, "it's not proper for a nobleman to frequent such dirty places. For pure love!" Those were their thoughts. But, of course, reality sometimes turned out to be quite different from what people imagined.

"Ah, well done, Baron Kilt! For love, as they say!" A man in an expensive suit with dark gray geometric patterns, revealing a shirt with golden motifs underneath, chuckled. The suit was adorned with a formal tie, and the merchant wore expensive rings on his fingers. He flashed a sly and business-like smile, raising his glass for a toast: "May your glory be eternal, and may success accompany you, my dear friend!"

"For the health of our handsome baron!" A beautiful half-naked woman joined the celebration, dressed in an extremely revealing swimsuit, leaving her body exposed for all to see.

"Hahaha! Now this is a party, just as expected from an elite restaurant!" A man in a long black coat with delicate silver trim around the collar and cuffs chuckled. Beneath the coat was a white, clean shirt, and on the breast pocket was a crest featuring a sword and a mythical creature resembling a lion-headed goat. "Thank you, thank you!"

Laughter echoed from a few flirtatious prostitutes. All these actions took place in a brothel in the city of Sedyon, which belonged to Adam... although the baron himself treated this place as a fancy restaurant or a hotel with additional services, even though deep down, he knew it was just a regular brothel.

"Hypocrites," several people around them thought.

This was... the second floor of the brothel. To put it more plainly, it didn't warrant much attention, and only a few wealthier clients ventured up here because the sum of 10 Platinum Dragon Stones was quite insignificant for them.

On the second floor, you could often see nobles who approached this place somewhat hypocritically. Fully aware that it was a brothel, they came here under the pretense that it was just a luxurious restaurant and hotel, thus deceiving their wives and, above all, themselves. It was a well-thought-out move on Adam's part—to ensure a flow of wealthy clients thanks to a more elegant interior, and the knowledge of etiquette even among the most insignificant prostitutes improved the clients' impressions.

This business brought in a considerable amount of money, almost rivaling banks and gambling houses, which usually only operated at night. For this reason, Adam was very pleased, often rewarding his employees and promoting them. This created an atmosphere of competition, and as a result, the workers happily brought him even greater income. It made him smile from ear to ear.

...

..

.

Footsteps echoed. Two men were approaching the brothel, located at the edge of the city of Sedyon. The guards, who had spotted them from a hundred meters away, straightened up and activated their radars to gauge the guests' level and their primary abilities. And as soon as the two guests approached the entrance...

"What the...?"

"Holy cow..."

Two guards, towering over two meters with large muscular bodies barely contained in their tight suits, suddenly shrank in size when they crashed to the ground and bowed as if they had encountered a saint. Their voices trembled, but they earnestly welcomed the guests.

"W-w-welcome, M-m-mister M-m-mayor!" one of the workers stammered, greeting Adam.

"D-d-d-d... s-s-s-s..." The other guard, who was an intern, tried to speak but couldn't string two words together. "S-s-sorry..."

Adam and Alexander exchanged glances, noticing a faint trace of cynicism and a desire to make fun of the guards in each other's eyes. However, Adam, being a man... well, a demon of conscience, kindly addressed the intern and calmed him down.

"It's okay. Take a deep breath, like this. Don't worry about the greeting, and get up. Let's have Luli accompany us, alright?" Adam said with a smile, waving his hand. Suddenly, black light emanated from his palm and enveloped the two guards, becoming part of their clothing.

"E-e-eh..." Before they could reply, suddenly...

Shush!

Both guards returned to their previous standing positions, and the "clothing layer" disappeared. Adam smiled and waved Alexander over, who was watching it all with a sour expression.

"What are you waiting for, Alexander? Let's go inside quickly. You wanted to discuss something, right?" Adam said with a smile.

"Damn, I never cease to be amazed by your skills..." Alexander muttered with a hint of displeasure.

The two guards didn't stay in place and rushed to open the door, raising a cloud of dust as they did, apologizing more than twenty times, and bowing on their knees. Despite finding their reaction amusing, Adam began to feel a bit tired, so he waved them off and entered, dragging Alexander along, who had wanted to tease the guards.

Ha-ha-ha! Noise, chatter.

As soon as they entered, the sudden silence was replaced by a mixture of girlish and masculine laughter. It was very noisy, and the clinking of cutlery and plates was nerve-wracking, but it was impossible not to appreciate the unique atmosphere as if you had walked into a bar.

"Ah, fuck yeah! How I missed this damn place!" Alexander exclaimed, spreading his arms wide as if inviting someone into his embrace.

For a moment, an awkward pause settled on the first floor, as if someone had turned off the music at a lively club for a full five minutes, killing the vibe. However, the conversations quickly resumed, and the noise returned. All the visitors unanimously decided to ignore the eccentric Alexander. But, of course, no one scolded him for it, as Adam was standing right next to him.

Here, every visitor knew his face, knew about his achievements, and respected and feared him to a large extent. Every merchant who had fallen into poverty and came to Sedyon with the support and financing from Adam, which he called a "loan," became rich and successful. And considering what they said about the four merchants...

"They say, Mister Ricky has achieved quite a bit! His deeds are talked about everywhere..."

"Oh, that's what you're talking about. Donations to Varasima refugees and other war-torn countries? A truly generous act. They say the esteemed Sir Adam also contributed from his funds, even building three houses to accommodate children, the elderly, and the sick."

"Yes, I heard about that too. Lady Sabrina supported the refugees with furniture and even gave houses to those who settled in Sedyon. Mr. Avalon also allocated funds for provisions for the refugees."

Adam smiled and waved his hand, signaling for Alexander to follow him. The man, who was already approaching the prostitutes, froze in his tracks.

The fourth floor. Compared to the early days of opening, there were many more people here, with about a hundred daily guests, which was quite pleasing. Adam and Alexander successfully entered this floor, and although many of the attendants wanted to approach them, they quickly fell silent due to Adam's serious expression, not wanting to disturb him.

In the far corner of the fourth floor was a private room... more like a mansion. Adam and Alexander safely reached this place.

"I hope you didn't wait for us long," Adam said, opening the door with a smile.

Before him was a fairly large room with a pool and a bar. In the pool, two women in attractive bikinis were present, while two men were spending time at the bar, pestering the young bartender. As soon as they noticed Adam, they dropped what they were doing and came over.

"Mr. Adam, hello! Thank you for your help back then!" The first to greet him was a white-haired man named Ricky with his energetic voice. He had a feminine face, a slender body with pale skin, and his hair was tied up in a high ponytail.

Avalon, who respectfully greeted Adam, joined them. At the same time...

"Adam, darling, why haven't you seen us for so long?" Marina said in an offended tone, clinging to him with her entire body and hugging him. She had long black hair tied in a bun and gray eyes. She was dressed in a sexy red bikini.

Without words, Sabrina also hugged him. She had chestnut hair and bright eyes. She was wearing a more provocative black bikini than Marina's.

"Sorry, ladies, I had some business to attend to. But since today is a day off, we can spend it together. I was planning to take a dip in the pool," Adam said with a smile, hugging them around the waist. "And you both look stunning. It suits you very well."

"Really? Hehe, I asked Ricky to make it for him! It turned out pretty good!" Marina giggled, bringing her lips close to his collar and planting a kiss, leaving her mark. "Maybe I should help you undress? A man is as sexy and handsome as you don't need a swimsuit. Let us see you in all your glory... whoops!"

Adam smiled, pinching Marina's nose. In a soft voice, he said, "Wait a bit. First and foremost, we're here to discuss a business plan. I even brought an investor with me... hey, what's wrong with you?"

Raising an eyebrow, Adam turned towards Alexander, who was looking at him as if Adam were responsible for all the wars in this world. The cultured gentleman's body was trembling, and he pointed at Adam, as in a game: "You damn womanizer! Rot in agony, you motherf***er!"

"Why are you so worked up? I thought your daughter had beaten all the crap out of you," Adam wondered.
