"They started with their plan," Masaru said as he closed the bedroom door.
Mio was angry with Masaru, he should have knocked on the door, but he had ruined a moment of pleasure.
Mio finished what she had started, she gyrated with such intensity that Haru couldn’t take it anymore and ejaculated.
The two of them took a shower together and acted as if Masaru had neither interrupted them nor been anxious for them to go to his office.
Haru rubbed Mio’s back and caressed her breasts, he held those breasts with great care and rubbed her nipples with the tip of his finger.
The two of them finished and dried themselves.
Haru went to Masaru’s office and Mio stayed behind choosing one of the bikini armors.
"As I said, they started taking action, electricity consumption began to increase, in less than an hour more than ten days’ worth of energy reserves were consumed."
"Can’t they just cut off the power of whoever is consuming all this?"
"It would be easy if it weren’t for three powerful families consuming all this energy," Masaru said as he sat down.
"I’ll give Amanda all the slime crystals I have, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to get more crystals in time."
"I sold all the crystals I have in stock, that gives us more than seven months of energy consumption. But with the current consumption, it might not last more than two weeks, but it’s already something we can gradually prevent."
"Prevent?"
"Their plan, you thought it was a speculative bubble, but in reality it was their initial idea, to leave the city without power and then try to sell all the crystals for a high price. But I don’t know if they’ll be able to deal with this for long, if we can make them lose money on this, we can prevent them from achieving their objective and we’ll be able to make them lose everything."
Mio entered the office, she called Hina to the guild.
"Won’t that be risky?"
"No," Masaru wasn’t sure.
"They’re still one of the four families, Himura and Shinozaki may fall, but Tsukishiro could remain in the same position."
"You’re right, but not before they lose a lot of money, we might even find out how many gold coins they have. Let’s go all in."
Masaru headed toward the dungeon, he descended to the deepest levels, he wanted the crystals with the most energy.
While a slime crystal could provide enough energy for a house with four people for one day, a crystal from a blue dragon with white eyes could provide enough energy for more than fifteen thousand houses.
These monsters were difficult to defeat, but Masaru could kill one, as long as other dragons didn’t go after him, in less than twenty minutes he could obtain the crystal.
Haru and Mio waited for Hina.
The electric company called asking for more crystals, electricity consumption had increased.
When she arrived, the three of them went straight to the dungeon, he began killing the insects, the crystals could keep more than a hundred houses running, which wasn’t much, but it would help delay the moment when the company’s stock of crystals was completely consumed.
"In five hours, the company will be out of crystals, the city will go dark and we’ll be able to show how our guild is better than all the other guilds in the city," Himura said while laughing.
Shinozaki seemed excited, but at the same time, her concerns were still bothering her.
Tsukishiro was unconcerned, he simply drank a glass of wine while eagerly waiting for the blackout.
The three of them turned on some devices to consume a lot of electricity in their respective companies.
The power company couldn’t simply cut off their supply, at least that was what the three of them trusted. Because they were powerful families, they could do many things that no other family below them could do.
Himura stood up and looked out the window.
"At this moment, the company must be desperate, they shouldn’t have any countermeasures," Shinozaki said while laughing.
"Tomorrow we’ll offer them all of our stock and they won’t have any choice but to buy it for whatever price we want," Himura said.
"I went back to the dungeon these past few days, it had been so many years since I last hunted a monster, it was a fun task, I could even go back to being an adventurer from time to time. Considering the value of the crystals in the future, it could be a great new source of income," Tsukishiro said while drinking some wine.
"Just a few more hours and the whole city will be in the dark."
Himura sat down, he began filling out some expense spreadsheets.
"How much will this consumption cost us?"
"A few million coins in total, but we must consider the deduction from the value of the crystal sales. I’ll ask my secretary to send the detailed amounts when the electricity bill arrives," Himura said while adding some other expenses to the spreadsheet.
"Does Kazuma still work for you?"
"He works for me, but sometimes Himura uses him for some jobs."
"I don’t like him very much, I’ve always considered him a pervert who doesn’t do the job properly, which is why I’ve always avoided him. He always wanted to work for me, even though I refused every time, he never gave up," he said while pouring more wine into his glass. "I think you lose a lot of money because of him, it’s better for you to only keep employees who know how to do the job properly."
Shinozaki knew this wasn’t true, but she didn’t know why he was saying that.
’Did he find out what I’m doing?’
She kept looking at him, her gaze seemed to be one of admiration, she knew how to pretend well.
Masaru came out with ten dragon crystals, his body was sweaty and had some superficial scratches and a burn mark.
Haru had hundreds of insect crystals, Hina hated having to stay on that floor, she hated insects. Mio wasn’t disgusted, but she preferred having to fight other, less disgusting monsters.
Masaru took all the crystals and sent a delivery person to the power company, all one million slime crystals and the dragon and insect crystals. A lot of gold coins, but he knew that this money would take some time to arrive.
"We’re not done yet, unfortunately this amount will only last a few more hours, we need to use this item on the dragon floor."
Masaru led the three of them to the floor, he asked Haru to activate his ability, then Masaru used the item, a stampede event began.
The event was different from the boss event.
"Is that that item?"
"Yes and no, I just asked my sister to replicate the use of the crystals, she managed to make this item, which only has two uses. But the effect will last a few more hours. That’s why I’ll stay in my office and then Amanda will come with something for you to eat."
Masaru left the dungeon and the three of them remained sitting on the floor.
