Beyond the lifeless black woodland, the foraging crows let out their piercing cries and faded away in the night.

Compared to the cold city walls at night, the taverns in the town are particularly lively.

"Afra! Keep up! ”

Outside the tavern, a deliberately suppressed voice came from a dark corner.

Belina, dressed in mage robes, carried her aqua blue braids and sneakily approached under the cover of night.

Her long ears poked out from either side of her mage hat, trembling with excitement, her pale green eyes nervously surveying her surroundings.

"Afra, we're here to rob the vault this time, don't mess around." She said to the people around her.

"Got it." The other party was obviously impatient

The consequences of robbing the guild vault are very serious, if the matter is revealed, being assigned to the army is an inevitable result, and she doesn't want to do it unless she has to, but since she is on this thief ship, she can only do it hard.

It's said that it will be reduced to such a field, and it's all because the idiot head was cheated out of all the tour fees by the succubus, and life has been tight since then.

"Belina, what did you prepare?" The childish voice sounded in my ears.

The one who spoke was a nine-year-old young female thief, she was Afra, who was usually just a "mascot" in the group.

Taking the heavy cloth bag handed by Belina in one hand, Afra said in a soft voice, "Start setting fire!" ”

Hearing this, Belina pulled out gunpowder and torches from her mage's robes.

Because of a ridiculous oath, Belina, as a high-level mage, does not know any low-level spells, so now she can only use the most primitive means of arson.

"Sister Belina is so bad, can't she even do a fireball technique?" Afra grumbled, her eyes full of contempt.

"Bastard! I'm only going to blow up the flames, do you want me to blow up the tavern?! Belina glared at Afra fiercely.

Watching Belina light the gunpowder from afar, the corners of Afra's mouth hooked, and a sly arc emerged.

"Alright Afra, get me away! Let's go find the regimental commander! ”

After the arson was completed, Belina hurriedly retreated and rushed towards Afra as fast as she could, and then all she had to do was ask Afra to take her away from the roof.

But just as she was about to catch Afra, she dodged her arm and jumped onto the wall behind her.

Belina looked up in confusion, the rope ladder that she had imagined to escape from the scene had not been lowered, and someone in the tavern behind her had already discovered the fire, and the sound of quarrels mixed with hurried footsteps sounded in her ears.

Belina's face was as white as paper, and she raised her head anxiously urging the other party.

"Afra, put the rope down! They're coming out! ”

Afra stood at the head of the wall, looking down at Belina at a loss, and smiled meaningfully.

"Belina, the head of the regiment has something for me to convey to you." Afra stood on the high wall and said loudly: "The regimental commander told me that it is good to have one less person to divide the money!" ”

With that, Afra turned around and jumped, her body soared into the air, and she flew from the roof to escape the scene, flying all the way to the wall and quickly fleeing away, leaving Belina with a dashing back.

Belina looked dumbfounded at the direction in which Afra had disappeared and understood.

She was deceived and betrayed as bait!

Behind him, the adventurers in the tavern rushed out, shouting and searching for the arsonist.

Everyone immediately turned their attention to Belina, who was running away with her mage robe.

……

"It's time to go."

Standing on the top of a tall poplar tree, Felik looked at the dark building, his eyes cold.

"Commander, get ready."

The petite Afra appeared under the tree with a heavy cloth bag, looked up, her innocent eyes flashing with excitement, and then raised her hand and raised her middle finger at Felik.

"Well done, Afra."

The corners of Felik's mouth hooked, and he smiled satisfied, and also stretched out his finger to make that shameful gesture to the other party.

That's right! The middle finger is their code!

Move your gaze into the distance, and a faint spark flashes in the distance.

That was a fire signal, and if the plan had gone according to plan, Belina would have been captured by the adventurers.

Felik understands that success or failure is a matter of success, as long as the robbery can be successful this time, with that money, he can start the Great Demon King Strategy Plan again.

In the dim sky, a flash of thunder and lightning illuminated the boy's side face.

Behind him, the shadow writhed like a snake, and a graceful girl crawled out of his dark shadow.

When she first came out, she pulled on the shadow casually, and the shadow was torn off a piece, and she wrapped it around her like a garment and became a black cloak.

"Isn't it shameful that as a demon king, you have been reduced to living by robbery?"

The girl cast a disdainful glance at Felik as she spoke.

Felik glanced at her dissatisfied, and coughed embarrassedly twice: "Ahem, pay attention...... It's the former Demon King. ”

Jumping down from the treetops and touching Afra's head, Felik took the cloth bag casually, checked the potion in the cloth bag and nodded: "Yes, this way you can successfully grab those treasures." ”

"Captain, then will we be able to eat meat at every meal in the future~~" Afra asked innocently.

"As long as you listen to me, you can eat whatever you want." Felik said casually.

The plan was simple, let Belina, a magician, use fireball magic to attack the adventurer's inn to attract attention, and then let Odelia break through the trap, and then Afra stole the priceless treasure.

"It's time."

Felik looked at him and stopped at the door.

In the distance, the flames suddenly rose into the sky, the surrounding streets screamed one after another, and the footsteps of people could be heard in the distance.

"Very well, we'll go in now, Bella, you wait here." Felik said to the girl behind her, wrapped in a shadow.

Pushing the door in, a charming voice came into my ears: "Why are you here now?" ”

A scarecrow stood in front of him, and no one would have thought that it was this scarecrow who had just spoken, carrying a rusty knight's sword on her back, and moving her fragile straw torso.

Her name is Oderia, and she has been a scarecrow since she was cursed, and only a man who is willing to give his blood for her can lift the curse, otherwise she will live with this body forever. Before becoming a scarecrow, Odelia was a swordsman with extraordinary swordsmanship, and in addition to this, she also had a shocking beauty, which is not an exaggeration to describe as a country and a city.

Of course, this is all Felik listening to Ojelia himself, and it is not very credible.

"Stop talking nonsense and get moving." Felik said impatiently.

"Regiment...... Commander, have you forgotten something? ”

Lovely Afra stood there and said timidly.

Hearing this, Felik was stunned for a moment, then patted his head and remembered.

The bullshit rule he set at the beginning: boost morale before acting.

Although it is not appropriate to do this now, there are no rules, and since the rules are set by him, they must not be followed.

So the three of them gathered in a circle, stretched out their middle fingers in unison, and shouted the morale-boosting slogan.

"Fuck it!"

"Okay, okay, it's time to get down to business." Felik urged as he pushed Odelia forward.

"Hey! Don't push me, my arm is going to fall off! Odelia grumbled.

The vault has a well-developed defense system, and the brave ones who break in will not end well.

But Felik is different, he has an epic shield! A living scarecrow!

The two stared at Odelia from afar, and she squeaked toward the vault with her wooden legs. Afra and Felik both sweated.

Shout~~!

Out of nowhere, an arrow pierced through Odelia's body, her straw body swayed, quickly regained her balance, and continued on her way.

"Well done! Odelia, just break all the traps! Felik encouraged.

Then the sound of the spring flicking continued to sound, and Odelia had more and more arrows on her body, and by the time she reached the door of the vault, she had been pierced into a hedgehog.

Then, she turned around and gave Felik a thumbs up: "Demining is done." ”

Perfect!

Felik was so excited that he even felt Odelia smile at himself with the rough straw countenance.

"Well done."

After Ojeria's death and all the traps failed, Felik walked down the safe corridor to Odelia and pulled out the arrows. In an instant, Odelia's body was torn apart, reduced to scattered parts on the ground.

"Sister Odelia... It's broken. Afra said, tilting her head.

Felik looked at Odelia on the ground, thought about it for a while, and came to the conclusion: "It's too troublesome to reassemble, and it's more efficient to pick you up when I run away." ”

"Then I'm bothering you." Odelia said.

And Felik sneered in his heart.

Troublesome?

No trouble, he didn't plan to take her away.

This is also part of Felik's plan! And less personal penny!

Thinking of the evil plan in his heart, Felik's expression became a little hideous.

"Hey~~ Leader, your eyes are not quite right, it feels so obscene. Although I was indeed beautiful before I became a scarecrow, you ...... to me now, which is a bit excessive. Odelia, who was scattered on the ground, said, with unconcealable disgust in her voice, and the scene was a little embarrassing for a while.

"Ahem, what's the matter? Don't think about it, Odelia. Felik coughed twice and returned to his original form.

Finally, the last step is here.

Carried Afra into the guild's vault.

But inside, Felik's expression froze for a moment.

In front of me was a dark treasury, a gorgeous magic chandelier hung on the high dome, the dark blue flame burned in the glass cover, and the air was filled with the smell of metal, the smell of gold coins! Felik took a deep breath, his face intoxicated.

It's finally coming to hand, and you're finally about to take the first step in your great plan!

The corners of Felik's lips rose slightly, revealing a greedy smile.

Illuminated by the magic chandelier, Felik cast his gaze to the very central place where the treasure chest was stacked.

Then the smile froze on his face.

"This ...... What's going on?! ”
