Chapter 2343: Assassinate the ist?
The restaurant was silent. Everyone was looking at him.
“This…”
Mag fell silent. He could be certain that what was in the book did not happen, and he did not take a bath with Cyn or do it seven times throughout the night.
However… that was not something one could explain easily with so many ladies around.
“It’s a rumor, a plain rumor,” Mag said seriously.
“So correction, this is a plain rumor?” Angela asked.
The ladies blushed upon hearing that. They were passing the book around in the morning. Although none of them had finished reading the book and had only skimmed through the rough details, they all knew what was written inside.
No one would think you’re a mute if you did not talk. Mag glanced at her and said with a nod, “Yes, that’s it.”
“I can’t believe a nonsense could actually ruin my reputation. Those foolish fellows actually believed the contents of a lewd . What has the world become?” Mag lamented with a sigh.
“In that case, it’s fake?” Irina asked him with a smile.
Mag knew that she would never believe him but her look of disbelief seemed to tell him that she was up to something. However, he still said with certainty, “Yes. I must find the author and let her know what the result of spreading false rumors is.”

......
“Cyn? That’s just a fictional character.” Mag frowned. He picked up the book and pointed at the pen name as he said, “I want to find this. Northwestern Lone Wolf.”
“Sounds like a tough one. Boss, you’d better be careful going on your own. Be careful that she’s not a lecher,” Angela said as she raised her brows. “Which normal person can write things out in such detail?”
“You speak too much!” Mag smacked her head with the book.
“Mm…” Angela dodged backward as she covered her head with her hands. She did not expect that as an 8th-tier powerhouse, she actually did not manage to avoid the Boss’ attack.
“Alright. That’s all for this matter. Disperse.” Mag waved his hand to indicate that the meeting had ended.
“Boss, my book.” Angela looked at Mag pitifully. Tears welled up in her charming eyes as she tossed out a charm unknowingly.
Mag ignored the charm she tossed out and said uprightly, “I’m confiscating it. You are the source of the rumors spreading in the restaurant. Read more healthy things and don’t sneak around in the park to read this kind of thing.”
“Hey, that’s too much.” Angela’s face fell immediately. How can you say something like that to a girl?
“You don’t want to act anymore?” Mag asked.
Angela thought of what Mag said a few days ago and suddenly swallowed her words back. She glared at him begrudgingly before turning to walk away.
This book is so well-written and she wanted to read it two or three more times while she learned some techniques. She did not expect Mag to confiscate it so shamelessly. It looked like she would have to get herself another copy.
The other ladies bade goodbye as well.
“Say, do you think that what Boss said is true?” Hannah asked curiously.
“I believe in Boss. In the past few months, I’ve never seen him flirt or tease any female customers, and it’s the same with us,” Elizabeth said coldly.
“Yes. Boss is very upright. If he was not upright enough, we would probably be the ones to have second thoughts,” Yabemiya said with a smile.
“Boss’ charm is rather hard to resist. A man like him is indeed hard to find.” Gina nodded in agreement.
The ladies laughed and headed back to the dormitory as they chatted.
“What do you intend to do now? Assassinate the ist?” Irina looked at Mag with a smile as though she was just watching a show.
“Although the ist spread false rumors about me, it is not something worth killing her over. I reckon she did not think that her could be so realistic and spread so far.” Mag shook his head with a bitter smile.
How can there be so many dumb people in this world?
“And you’re going to let her be?”
“Even though she does not deserve death, it does not mean that she should not be punished. This matter started because of a , so it must end with this . I must find her and make her clarify it,” Mag said with a smile, “As for how I will punish her, I haven’t thought of that yet. We’ll see when I catch her.”

“You know how to find her?”
“Isn’t the publishing house and pen name written on the book? There are bound to be people who know her.” Mag waved the book in his hand and left.
Mag quickly found the editorial agency located in the west of the city named Delmar Publishing House.
Mag wore his mask in the alley, putting on the disguise of a middle-aged merchant. He tidied his clothes up and placed the book into a little bag before walking toward the publishing house.
The moment Mag stepped foot inside, he was stopped by the lady at the front desk.
“Sir, do you have an appointment?” the lady at the desk asked with a sweet smile. Judging from Mag’s clothing, she was guessing that Mag was a rich man here to discuss business.
“Apologies, I do not have an appointment but I’m here today to discuss a big business deal with your boss. Can you help me inform him?” Mag replied with a smile, unconsciously revealing his bangle that was encrusted with gems.
“Sure. Please hold on. I will notify our boss.” The lady could not determine what Mag was here for and was worried that she might rashly reject her boss’ potential client. After replying to Mag, she quickly walked in.
After a while, a short and plump middle-aged man followed the lady out. He sized Mag up when he was far away and by the time he reached Mag, he was already full of smiles. “Pal, you don’t look familiar to me. May I ask the reason for your arrival?”
Mag pulled out a book from his bag and said with a smile, “Hi, I am the owner of Padar Publishing House in Rodu. You must be Mr. Delmar, right? I am here today to discuss a partnership for “Boss Mag’s Indecent Little Wife”. I have the intention of spending 2 million copper coins to buy the publishing rights for this book in the Roth Empire.”
When Delmar heard ‘Padar Publishing House’, he was still a little skeptical. He did not recall such a publishing house in Rodu. However, when he heard 2 million copper coins, his eyes lit up instantly. He said with a broad smile, “Come, come, come, please come in. Let’s have a slow chat about it inside.”
Delmar Publishing House was a small publishing house. Although it was rather well-known in the lewd circle, it was not something that one could put on the table and therefore, it did not create a positive impact on his brand.
“Boss Mag’s Indecent Little Wife” was their comeback piece. Based on its current popularity, its sales alone could sustain the company for three years, much less bring about a wave of sales for the previous few books.
