Obtaining 10x rewards! Reincarnated into a novel as a side-character!

Not only did the identity of its users remain private, but the transactions were strictly monitored. If the other party somehow managed to scam someone, there would be serious consequences, and all the money would be refunded to the victim.

After placing the bid, he put the phone in his mindspace and went back to his courtyard.

In fact, he wanted to explore more, but he was a little scared about his impulsiveness. He had already spent 5 million Neden in one go just because he saw something he wanted for the future. Who knew how many other things might be there that he could not resist spending money on?

So, he didn\'t dare to explore further and paused until he had more money in the future.

He soon reached his courtyard.

"Yawn…"

The first thing he saw upon entering was a white fat cat yawning.

Ignoring the cat, he called the maid and asked her to prepare food and a bath.

______________

In a place far away from the Mystic Purge Clan, a group of shady individuals dressed in pitch-black robes with hoods covering their faces were gathered around a table as they conversed.

They had an ominous dark aura surrounding them, and an eerie feeling filled the air.

One of them spoke in a hoarse tone, "I have received instructions from the higher-ups that one of the demonic ghosts entrusted to the border was surrounded by exorcists."

The others listened silently, but there was a hint of tension in the air when they heard him.

"Fortunately, the demonic ghost was an expert who managed to escape. However…" he paused as he cast a gaze at all the people present inside the room, "…it seems that he accidentally entered human territory due to the situation."

"What!?"

"Here of all places?"

Shocked voices could be heard as the expressions of the individuals who had been silent so far turned grim.

One of them immediately questioned, "Is he alive or has he been exorcised already?"

There were murmurs in the group as they wondered how the demonic ghost made such a careless move to enter the lion\'s den.

The human territory was the worst place for any demons. There were powerful and dangerous exorcists active throughout the lands, roaming everywhere. One slight mishap would directly lead to a painful exorcism by one such exorcist.

The one who had started this all spoke again, "According to the information I received last time, he should still be alive, or maybe not, in the worst case."

The others quieted down when the man spoke, waiting for him to explain the purpose of the meeting.

If the demonic ghost was not alive, then what was the point of calling this meeting today? They could not help but be confused.

"However, what matters is not his life but the thing he has with him. The higher-ups left something very important with him due to some confidential reasons, and we have to get him back if he is still alive. If not, then… the item should be retrieved no matter what."

It took a moment for his words to sink in before someone reacted.

"What!? That\'s a literal suicide mission!"

"That\'s right! We don\'t even know where he is at the moment…"

"Not only that, but what if the exorcists have already exorcised him and seized his belongings? Do we have to jump in the middle of those crazy exorcists to get that thing back!?"

"That\'s a tough one… but master, you must have some leads on it, right?"

One of them asked in a hesitant tone to the person who had informed them of this suicidal mission.

The man looked at his subordinates without saying anything. Feeling an invisible pressure in the air, all of them slowly went silent one after another, eagerly waiting for his word.

"You are correct, I have a way. It was given by the higher-ups. The storage bracelet the old demon ghost was carrying has a location tracking rune embedded inside it. As long as the rune is not discovered, we will be able to find him and retrieve the item."

The others eased up a bit after hearing that. It was still a doable task. They only needed to follow the location and get it back safely.

"Then, Master, where is it located right now—"

"Mystic Purge Clan."

"…"

The other men present could not help but feel cold after hearing the location.

Knowing the location now reverted the situation back; the mission once again turned suicidal.

The Mystic Purge Clan was infamously known as the righteous slaughterhouse. Both exorcists and demons avoided that place like the plague.

Entering that place alone was extremely difficult for them. No, it was close to impossible. Not to mention the crazy-minded people of that clan. If they even get a whiff of them, the torture that awaited them would be unimaginable.

"Master… that\'s…"

They could not help but ask hesitantly, looking at their leader.

Even he should know about the danger of the Mystic Purge Clan.

Although their faces were covered with hoods, all of their expressions were identical at that moment.

They heard him speak again, but this time they could hear a hint of solemness in his tone.

"I am aware of what you all are thinking. However, we cannot refuse the order from the higher-ups. They are our gods!"

His tone turned maniacal in the end as he chanted his beliefs aloud. Yet no one in the room stopped but rather looked at him with reverent eyes.

They were a group of demon heretics, as termed by the exorcist clans, and they worshipped demons religiously as their gods. They were the servants of demons.

The demonic heretics often had a belief: they should have been born as demons but instead were born as humans. They hated being humans and aspired to become demons and be recognized as such.

While this was a twisted belief and psychotic thinking, they were offered the chance to become the servants of demons and thus turned traitors to their own race.
