Chapter 114: Encounters are always caught off guard

After saying this like a greeting among fellow thieves. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Listening to the voice, she should be a good-looking woman, but because her whole body was wrapped in the knight's armor, she couldn't see the inside clearly, so she rummaged through the kitchen to find fresh food.

"Have you investigated the location of the secret door?"

After hearing my words in a low voice, Alice also turned her head in confusion and whispered.

"I've searched all the floors, including over there, but I can't smell any signs of air circulation or being opened, and you can see it, Uncle Bone......"

"If that's the case, that's what I said. ”

Alice and I, who were about to retreat, looked at each other, stunned and didn't know what to say.

Whispering, we cast our eyes on the dark passages.

It was originally a floor, and there was nothing particularly unnatural except for the rust that naturally occurred over time......

But I always feel something weird that I can't say.

Miss Knight's Armor, who had scavenged through a pile of food, found a piece of fabric that looked like a chef's overalls in the corner of the kitchen, and after skillfully packing the food, she probably planned to walk back into the dark passage.

…… It seems that she really doesn't want to pay attention to us, should we talk better now?

"That. I'm sorry to take the liberty of asking, but we are the guards of the City Lord's Mansion. You seem to be wearing a lot of armor, but you are the legend hidden in the kitchen?"

"Oh, no, that. I only come to steal food occasionally, has it all become a legend?"

Hearing me say this, Miss Knight Armor froze in place, and asked as if she was a little surprised.

Rummaging through the kitchen in no more than five minutes from appearing to disappearing, and the stolen food can still be mixed with meat and vegetables like shopping in your own refrigerator......

"Oh no, it's not about stealing food. There is a legend that there is a Guardian in a treasure trove in the basement of the kitchen. ”

In order to avoid misunderstanding, I hurriedly waved my hand and explained.

The silver-gray armor worn by Miss Knight Armor made people feel like a complete work of art.

No joints are visible, and the surface is smooth, and the armor is full-coverage.

Even if I don't understand the value of armor, my heart beats a little faster when I see this armor, it's a hard armor that gives people the feeling that [as long as it's equipped, you won't lose to anyone].

I've inquired in White Oak, and it seems that blacksmiths from another world have never heard of quenching or anything like that.

And in a different world with all kinds of magical ores or scales, the value of the original materials pursued for development, and the forging technology is relatively backward.

Seamless high-grade armor, this is a powerful equipment that only the strong deserve.

In other words, the appearance in front of us and the appearance of the knight armor lady who looked a little off the line may be the reason why the previous city lords were relieved to conceal the real treasure trove and were not prepared to invest in the garrison at all.

A powerful treasure trove keeper.

"The treasure vault and the guardian in the kitchen floor? What is that? This secret passage only leads to my house. ”

Huh.

As if she didn't understand what I was saying, Miss Knight Armor pressed her index finger to the lip of her armor, giving a thoughtful look.

"There's nothing underneath here, I live at the bottom of the lake next door. That's the way I made it...... Ah, but that's because, one day I woke up and found that the seal seemed to have expired after too long, and if I lost the power of the seal, I felt hungry, and then I ......"

As she said this, Miss Knight Armor seemed to bow her head a little embarrassed.

“…… Then, because I was very hungry, I occasionally came to the big family next door that looked like a rich man to find something to eat. But, but I really did it because I had to do it because of my survival! Can I ask the guard brother you not to tell the others?"

What's going on?

As if she was really embarrassed, she put down the packed food, kept hunching and began to apologize.

"Although、I don't have any money right now, but please don't worry. Sooner or later, I'll come and pay it back, ah, but I'm not afraid of you if I want to fight. Don't, don't look at me like this, in fact, I used to mix with very powerful seniors for a while, it's a bone dragon!"

“…………”

Just as I was agonizing over whether the chattering Miss Knight Armor was apologizing or demonstrating, Alice tugged at the corner of my coat.

"Naa, Uncle Bone. What she said should be true, the kitchen of the City Lord's Mansion is next to the lake, maybe I feel wrong. And Alice can smell something similar to Uncle Spantim. ”

With an expression of making up for it, he said something intriguing.

It can't be such a coincidence, right......

Strange as it may be, the first impression given by Miss Knight Armor is that she is a very kind fellow.

And she seems to have said just now, after the seal expires.

These are the perfect fulfillment of the vague meaning of the words of Ashu and Spandam.

Although Ah Shu said that the Nerd is a ring-type soul creation, it is a reference to Spandham's ability to extend his limbs......

"I'm sorry, you see that we are also the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and we have to complete our work. Although the stolen food should not be worth much, in order to confirm that you will actually pay back, can you fill in your personal information a little?"

After pulling out the velvet pen and paper from the space ring, I tried to hand it to her and said in an office tone.

I hope it goes well.

"Well, since it's work, I can't help it, okay. ”

After nodding her head with some gloss, she also took the pen and paper very cooperatively, writing something on it.

"Well, let's just make it an IOU. The name is Anya and she lives at the bottom of the lake next door. I don't have any money now, but I'll return it as soon as I have it...... It's written, you can take a look. ”

After waiting for a short time, I took an IOU that looked very formal, and I was lost in thought.

Ah Shu and the Waste Demon Sword didn't seem to tell me the idiot's real name.

"Ah, Miss Anya, what a nice name. And Miss Anya looks very kind, but she feels a little dumb. I wonder if you've ever been called something like 'dumb guy' or 'dumb boy'?"

"Nope. ”

Upon hearing my words, Miss Knight Armor paused for a moment, and then took a step back as if she had thought of something.

I originally thought of making a fortune in the City Lord's Mansion, but I didn't expect to find ......

"Huh, I didn't expect your sealing location to be in the lake. Let's get straight to the point now, we're partners, although you may not know me, well, it's complicated. But, by the way, you know Spandham. ”

"I don't know. ”

After hearing me say the name of a certain magic sword, Miss Knight Armor took another step back decisively, and there seemed to be a wary gaze.

How bad Spandam's reputation must be!

"Oh, no. But didn't you just say that you had been with the bone dragon predecessors for a while? That's Spendham......

"I didn't say that. ”

As she watched us, she had retreated to the entrance to the tunnel.

Oops, it seems that the atmosphere is getting more and more tense the more you talk.

"Don't, don't be nervous. Actually, you can see it, we are not the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, it is better to say that the reason why we are here is to unlock your seal, if you want to be specific, we should be regarded as nameless thieves now!"

"You are thieves——!?"

After hearing my handsome lines, Miss Knight Armor seemed to let down her guard and asked with some surprise.

Although、I don't know why.,But anyway, it seems to be getting closer.。

"Well, that's right. We are the famous Great Thief, known as the legend of Rixel......"

Before I finished my sentence.

Miss Anya in the knight's armor resounded with a loud voice that resounded throughout the City Lord's Mansion Manor—

"There's a thief stealing something from the kitchen————!!"

shouted a line that made people want to complain about [did you steal it together].

Then, taking advantage of the emptiness as we turned to guard the guards, we slipped into the tunnels in a blink of an eye, leaving behind the sound of the floor being covered.
