After carefully sizing up this blue-clothed man who looked very much like the real boss, Connor, who was disguised as the scar-faced man, revealed a cold smile. He didn't answer Handanovic's question, but instead stepped on the unconscious Cornet's body and said to Handanovic indifferently, "You're the boss here? This fat pig is one of your men? "
Seeing Connor's provocation, Handanovic didn't say anything, but the red-haired young man couldn't sit still. He pulled out the dagger at his waist and glared fiercely at Handanovic. Looking at his posture, it seemed like he was waiting for Handanovic's order to kill him on the spot!
But to the red-haired young man's disappointment, he didn't wait for Handanovic's order. On the contrary, Handanovic still had a smile on his face. Handanovic patted his arm that was holding the dagger, indicating for him to put it away.
Although he was unwilling, the red-haired young man didn't hesitate to put the dagger back into the scabbard. After doing this, Handanovic maintained the smile on his face and continued to speak to Connor, "Sir, the person you are stepping on is called Cornet. He is my wife's brother. If he offended you, I am willing to apologize for his actions. Please forgive him!"
"As for me, I am a regular customer of Uncle Lotito's bar. I often come here to play. Plus, I have a small stake in the bar, so I am considered a small shareholder. As for the boss, I am a proper businessman, so of course I am not!"
Everyone in the bar, including the red-haired young man, didn't seem to have expected that Handanovic, the underground emperor who could summon wind and rain in Saspede, who could make the entire town tremble with a stomp of his foot, would actually compromise and be so weak in front of this scar-faced man of unknown origins. The other party beat up your brother-in-law, and you still take the initiative to apologize to him?
Not only the people in the bar, but even Connor didn't expect Handanovic to apologize to him. He originally planned to provoke Handanovic and then beat him up. He would take the opportunity to kidnap Handanovic and then go to a secluded place to use the Soul Manipulation on Handanovic. He wanted to see if there were any clues about Firo's hiding place in the memories of this big H gang leader of Sasped.
Although Handanovic said that he wasn't the boss, Connor naturally didn't believe him. However, since Handanovic was acting so subservient in front of him, Connor had no reason to make a move. With Connor's ability, it wouldn't be a problem to forcibly kidnap Handanovic.
However, if Connor did that, it would seem very unnatural. Plus, there were hundreds of people gathered in this bar. If he made a move on Handanovic, the news would quickly spread throughout the city of Sasped. If that guy Firo paid attention to Sasped's information and knew about this matter, he would very likely realize something. If that happened, it would alert the enemy, which wouldn't be good for Connor to find Firo!
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Connor made a decision. He retracted his foot from Cornet's body and said to Handanovic in a deep voice, "My name is Hafferts!"
Hearing Connor introduce himself, Handanovic's smile became even brighter. He pointed upstairs and said to Connor, "Mister Hafferts, are you interested in having a few drinks with me upstairs? When Cornet wakes up, I'll have him apologize to you in person!"
Hearing that Handanovic wanted him to have a drink with him upstairs, Connor immediately became vigilant. Handanovic hadn't shown himself yet, and was secretly observing him from the second floor of the bar. Connor had already discovered him and used his power of the will to check him. He was sure that this Handanovic wasn't a Magus. However, although this person didn't look very old, only in his early thirties, he already had the strength of a Grand Knight!
Even though Connor had very straightforwardly defeated those young thugs, the strength he displayed was only that of an official Knight. Handanovic, who had the strength of a Grand Knight, didn't need to be so humble and even invite him for a drink. As the saying goes, if there's an abnormality, there must be something wrong. Connor was sure that behind this Handanovic's' friendliness', there must be some kind of conspiracy that he didn't know about!
"Sure! I'd like to have a taste of Saspede's best wine! "Using the alias of Hafferts, Connor pretended to be forthright as he spoke.
Hearing Connor's words, a trace of craftiness appeared in the eyes of this man named Handanovic, and he very straightforwardly said, "Mister Hafferts, I believe that the wine in my room won't disappoint you!"
After Handanovic's words, Connor walked up the stairs with him under the watchful eyes of everyone in the bar, and headed to the second floor of the bar.
Using his power of the will to check everything on the second floor, Connor sneered in his heart. Although the trace of craftiness in Handanovic's eyes had disappeared in an instant, as a Spirit Force Magus, he had a strong sense of perception. This made Connor even more certain that there was something wrong with this Handanovic's thoughts!
The reason why Connor knew that there was something wrong with this Handanovic, and why he still followed him to the second floor of the bar, and even entered his lair, was completely because he was confident in his strength as an official Magus. He wasn't afraid of this Handanovic playing some kind of trap with him, because he wanted to see what exactly this Handanovic's problem was, and whether it had anything to do with Firo hiding in Saspede!
Once he thought that this Handanovic in front of him might have something to do with "Firo", Connor couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart. He couldn't wait to use the Spirit Manipulation spell on Handanovic and check his memories, but unfortunately, there were too many people in the bar watching him and Handanovic. If he made a move on Handanovic now, it would be difficult to handle with too many people watching. After all, Connor couldn't create a massacre and kill everyone …
The open design of the lobby on the first floor of Uncle Lotito's Bar was completely different from the facilities on the second floor. Compared to the noisy and chaotic lobby on the first floor, the private rooms on the second floor were all very private, and each private room was luxuriously decorated. The level of luxury was not inferior to the entertainment venues in Flosino.
After walking to the deepest private room on the second floor, Handanovic opened the door for Connor with a smile on his face, and then said, "Mister Hafferts, this is the private room of my bar, welcome!"
