I Become Baby Mafia Boss
Chapter 504 - "We Are Mafias"
A priest...
It was the first time Ainsley heard of this occupation since the healers were more popular and in high demand.
"Yes, family head. A priest is a side deviation from healers. They can't heal living beings, but they usually purify items or areas that got negative status ailments from ability users."
Nouvan started to explain about the priests.
"The priests' ability is often called purification or cleansing. Unlike healers who usually join the healer guild or join other big families, all priests ought to join the temple."
"The temple…"
"Yes, family head. The temple isn't that famous, not as famous as the healer guild and other guilds, but many families come to seek their aid to purify curses or other negative things."
Ainsley's groggy eyes instantly lit up at Nouvan's words. The baby slapped the armchair and laughed.
"That's it! Why don't we invite the priests then? You said they can purify things...corrosive abilities and poison are things they can purify too, right?"
"Yes, family head. I'm also about to give you this advice. Luckily, we have one small temple in the Roane Region. Should we invite them now or wait until morning?"
Nouvan was slightly excited that he could help Ainsley's problem. Thank God he's a healer and knows bits about priests. Thus, he had the idea of calling the priests.
"Hmmm...what's the temple rule? Are they open 24 hours a day, or do they have office hours?" Ainsley propped her chin as she yawned.
"They're open 24 hours a day but to invite them outside of the office hours, they usually demand a higher price…"
"What's the price? Dollars, energy crystals or other items?"
"Usually energy crystals and other unique items."
"We don't lack them." Ainsley secretly sighed in relief while massaging the area between her eyebrows.
By now, her body already felt so heavy that her head also became muddled.
'I can't stay awake any longer. Ugh...let's finish this fast and sleep.'
"Alright, Nouvan. Quickly contact the temple. Send as many priests as they can. We have to purify all the water sources and soils before the villagers wake up...."
Nouvan immediately kneeled on one knee while bowing at Ainsley. "As you wish, family head! I'll contact the Roane temple now."
Nouvan hurriedly got up and left the hall to call the temple.
As a healer, who was a better version of the priests, it's not surprising that he got easy access to the temple.
After all, the priests looked up to the healers, and they were much more friendly to the healers than any other occupation.
However….there was one thing that Nouvan didn't expect.
Not all temples were neutral and supported all sides. Some temples were actually the government's dogs...and the Roane Temple was one of them.
"What? Purifying water sources and contaminated soils?"
"Yes, sir. Can you– "
"Are you from the Sloan Family?"
Nouvan paused. He slowly nodded. "Yes...is that a problem?"
The one on the other side of the phone seemingly froze for a second before clearing his throat. "Well, our Roane Temple has a rule…"
"What rule?" Nouvan started to get an ominous feeling. He didn't know why but...it seemed that the other party was going to make things difficult for him.
Indeed, the other party hesitated for a few seconds before sighing.
"Our head temple said that the Roane Temple couldn't help those involved in the mafia society. So…"
Nouvan's heart skipped a beat. His face instantly darkened.
"What do you mean? I never knew the Roane Temple had this rule?"
Sensing Nouvan's annoyance, the other party hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry, sir healer, but it's been our tradition. Please contact other temples!"
Without waiting for Nouvan to reply to his words, the other party already cut off the call, leaving Nouvan hanging on the thread.
When Nouvan realised that the other party just ditched him, he almost threw his phone to the floor.
"What the heck?! Why are they so biased? What kind of rule is that...they can't help those in the mafia society? No wonder the Roane Temple remains a small temple!"
The Roane Region was full of mafias, so for a temple to refuse to help the mafia...it's already good that they're not burned to the ground.
There must be another force backing them from behind, and this force didn't like the mafias.
Frustrated, Nouvan went back to the main hall dejectedly. He immediately told Ainsley what just happened, and the baby couldn't help but clenched the armchair tightly.
"They're not going to help a mafia family...are they related to the governments?" Ainsley instantly recalled the culprit behind the silent attack.
The golden scale.
Evan said that the gang was suspected to be a force created by the government to suppress the mafia society's growth in the Godlif country.
Now...it sounded plausible!
It was then Ainsley realised that her mindset and point of view had been too narrow. She didn't think that there would be many troubles outside of the mafia society…
Her enemies wouldn't be only from the mafias but also those outside that disliked the mafias!
After all, the mafias were the bad people, no matter what. Many forces outside of the mafia society would try to destroy the mafias…
But Ainsley didn't feel the pressure yet because the mafia society was strong and influential in the Godlif country.
It's just that...her family was now slowly rising to the top. The 'wind' became harsher.
"So...what to do, family head?" Nouvan braced himself to ask Ainsley.
In the end, they still needed the priests!
Ainsley paused at Nouvan's words before slowly tugging the corner of her lips.
"We are mafias. We do things in a mafia way!"
