The Author's POV
Chapter 698
The pungent odour of alcohol lingered in the air, permeating every corner of the small tavern filled with demons who were seated at round wooden tables and drinking what appeared to be potent alcoholic beverages.
"There ain' nuthing better than some sweet alcohol afte' sum heavy work!"
"Ye bet."
Demons weren't the only creatures that resided in the tavern, as dwarves―or, more accurately, duegars―sat around the round tables, chatting and singing loudly.
In one of the tables near the far ends of the tavern.
"What have you guys found out?"
I asked, looking at the others in front of me.
As soon as we arrived in the city, the very first thing that we did was break up into smaller groups in order to investigate the situation independently.
Information was key in order for us to better adapt ourselves to this foreign world.
Following our initial parting, we don't go more than a couple of hours before we find ourselves back at the same tavern where we'd agreed to meet.
Right now, we were now sharing our findings.
"Should I start first?"
Jin was the first one to speak, crossing his legs and leaning back on his chair.
Though his face was covered by the hood, I could more or less guess that he was currently frowning.
"I'm sure the majority of you already know this, but from what I've gathered, the city is governed by four major superpowers. According to what I've learned, they are referred to as the seven Royal houses, and each is led by a Prince/Princess ranked demon. Each royal house represents a different clan, such as Envy, Sloth, Lust, and so on..."
Jin halted, then brought his hand up to his mouth and began massaging what appeared to be his chin.
"I couldn't learn too much given that this is sensitive information, but...from the looks of it, there is an obvious power struggle between each Royal house. Nothing needs to be said about why they're fighting, as most of you are probably aware of why right?"
"Yeah."
I nodded my head.
The answer to that question was kind of obvious.
The houses were engaged in a fierce competition for their share of the devil fruits that were harvested from the world tree.
Each year, the world tree would distribute a limited quantity of its fruits, each of which contained varying degrees of purity, with the purer ones being the most limited.
Due to the fact that they were restricted, they were considered scarce resources, which was ultimately what led to the emergence of the conflicts.
All of the houses were fighting for the opportunity to have more devil fruits.
After all, devil fruits mean more power.
