Port Capper Antiquarian Market, the black market stall where Green bought back the mage book. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shortly after Green left the second-hand market, a lively girl with short blond hair came to the stall: "Sister Andira, has the thing I entrusted you to trade sold?" ”

The girl is not tall, looks like she is still underage, her cute face looks like she is a little baby fat, and her beautiful short blonde hair is tied behind her head with a black ribbon, giving people a healthy and lively feeling.

Hearing the girl's words, the man in the cloak sitting behind the stall raised his head and said in a hoarse male voice, "Bad news for you, Xelia." The item you brought was taken back by its original owner. ”

"What!?" Hearing the words of the man in the cloak, the girl couldn't help but jump up, "What a joke!" ”

"Xelia, you should know that I'm just an ordinary businessman. The boy asked to go to the temple to do a lie test, and I couldn't help it. The man in the cloak never said anything about the deal.

"Damn it!" The girl bared her teeth angrily, leaking out cute little tiger teeth, "Sister Andira, tell me where the robber went?" ”

"Calm down, Xelia. This is the city, and it will be troublesome if it is discovered by the guards. ”

"Don't worry, Sister Andira, I won't be caught." The girl looked confident, "When I was in Yorne, even those transcendents couldn't catch me. ”

"Okay." The man in the cloak put on a helpless expression, "That person has already left, but since he is a mage, you may be able to try your luck in the mage guild." ”

"Okay, I see! Sister Andira, I'll come to see you again when I take back my property~" The girl left in a bouncing manner.

Seeing the girl leave, the man in the cloak gently tugged at the cloak on his head, and the corners of his mouth in the shadows couldn't help but tilt up slightly: "That magic book was indeed taken back by his original owner, and I didn't lie." ”

If Green was here, he would be so angry that he pulled out his gun magic and sent her a bullet! Because the man in the cloak is hiding one of the most important messages: Green retrieved the spellbook by buying it, not by snatching it directly.

According to the teachings of the Lord of Shadows, it is an absolute truth that wealth belongs only to those who have the ability to acquire it. When a person is in possession of something, then he is the owner of that item, regardless of the source of that item. In the eyes of those thieves, what comes into their hands is theirs, and if Green takes the stolen goods without paying, even if this is justified and legal, in the eyes of the followers of the Lord of Shadows, it is robbery!

For robbers who robbed themselves, it is normal to take revenge and go back. The reason why Green chose to "buy" his things back instead of taking them away was not only because he didn't want to get too stiff with the local thieves' union, but also because he wanted to avoid "revenge".

Grimm is a time-traveler with a lot of future memories, and he can go and dig up a treasure from a past life's memories, which are all thousands of gold coins in his account, and he has no time to play a family-like revenge game with a group of petty thieves.

Green doesn't want to play with the thieves, but sometimes you don't want to cause trouble, and things get you.

Soon after Grimm came out of the Mage's Guild, a thief girl named Xelia had already quietly targeted Grimm.

"That little white face that looks very bad, yes, it's him." Hiding in the shadows of the alley, Kecelia stared at Grimm as he walked down the street, and at a glance saw the spell book chained to Grimm's waist and the crossbody bag on his shoulder.

The crossbody bag is bulging and round, and it looks like it contains something big and round.

Something round? Kecelia glanced in the direction of the Mage Guild and couldn't help but light up!

"Is it the Devil's Egg?" Xelia was a little excited. That's right, definitely! This mage doesn't have demons around him, so it's normal to go to the mage's guild to buy demons.

It's a good thing to make a magic egg, and if you can steal it, you can sell it for at least a few dozen gold coins, right? If it's a rare demon, it's not impossible to sell it for thousands of gold coins!

Ceria's eyes became hoter, "This guy is such a fool who doesn't learn his lesson." Isn't it a deliberate crime to travel alone twice in a row without warning with valuables? ”

Well? Alone? Xelia seemed to sense something was wrong.

Wait a minute! It's ...... When the hell did that maid appear there!?

After a moment of careful observation, Xelia spotted Sakia following Grimm.

The maid was very beautiful and very revealingly dressed, although she was wearing a cloak, but the looming scenery was more exciting than no cloak, obviously a very conspicuous person, but Kecelia found that she had just ignored her! This is obviously not normal.

"Sneaking?" Kecelia frowned involuntarily.

The [Stealth] skill, which reduces one's presence, is the core ability of the Rogue. Unlike the [Invisibility] technique of mages who achieve invisibility by distorting light, [Stealth] is achieved by eliminating one's "presence". As a thief, Xelia is naturally very familiar with the [Stealth] ability, so when Xelia saw Sakia, she immediately realized that the maid was her companion.

[Posture and Master on top]: A posture skill for maid (deacon) classes. Can only be used when the owner is nearby, reducing one's presence and adding a temporary charisma bonus equal to the owner's charisma adjustment. The higher the owner's charisma, the lower the sense of presence. This state can be considered stealth.

During this period, both Merodia, the country of maids, and Moons, the country of deacons, belonged to the country of seclusion, and the deacons and maids of the main plane belonged to the "life profession" and did not have the professional advancement of "transcendent professions", so people's understanding of maids and deacons was very limited, and Xelia naturally did not know that Saqia was actually using maid skills rather than thieves' stealth, so Xelia naturally regarded Saqia as a thief.

"Cut~ These nobles are so disgusting, they actually let the maid dress like this and walk around!" Xelia smashed her mouth. The target has an extra stealth maid next to them, which means that the difficulty of stealing has more than doubled!

If it was in the past, there is a good chance that Kecelia would choose to give up and find a new goal when encountering this situation, but this time it is not only a matter of money, but also a matter of dignity! And this means that things are not so easy to uncover.

Xelia glanced around the streets and disappeared into the alley.

Carrying a crossbody bag containing the magic egg, Green walked happily in the direction of the hotel. After running all morning, you've almost bought everything, and in the afternoon it's time to go on an adventure to get a quest to earn money, reputation, experience, and skill points.

For Green, money and prestige are secondary, and it is too inefficient to obtain money and prestige through quests compared to digging for treasure based on the memories of his previous life. The key is experience and skill points, these two can not be cheated, can only be slowly accumulated in a down-to-earth manner.

As Green walked around a corner, a kid suddenly rushed out in front of him!
