"Why? Shouldn't the stolen goods be returned to their rightful owners when they are found? ”

"Hmm...... That's true, but the thieves won't let it go, and she'll still be lurking in the city of Marcas. If the stolen goods were returned to the museum in Kasemer, wouldn't that allow the thieves to find their lost targets again? This will only lead to the recurrence of thefts. ”

"But now that the security of the fortress has been greatly strengthened, the thieves should not be able to continue to steal."

"Well, if you think about it, if the thief doesn't succeed in stealing again from the tight protection, she will surely be angry with the person who has done her good deeds, and she should easily find out that the stolen goods were handed over from you. Anyway, I think it's worth hiding it for a while, and then making plans until the thieves leave Marcas City after they admit defeat. ”

"Wait...... She? My persuasion did not seem to be accepted by Aitez, who found a flaw in my words, "How do you know the sex of the thief?" Didn't you say that you didn't know anything about a thief's characteristic? ”

"Uh...... Even though the thief was clad in black and masked when I was bumped into, I could tell that she was actually a woman. ”

But this explanation was not enough to perfunctory Atreus, and he quickly asked a new key question.

"Also, you just said that the thieves would leave Marcus City, why do you know she's not a local?"

"Uh......"

Before I could come up with a suitable response, Atreous continued to ask, "I remember when you went out today, you said you were going to the house in Nepos, did you...... Could it be that this theft has something to do with the Silverblood family? ”

I was dizzy, if I didn't want to do this, there was just a little mistake, and as a result, what happened made him guess all of a sudden.

Seeing the way I stammered, Atreous was sure of his conjecture, "It's really the Silverblood Family!" It was so audacious that even the court mage who had never had any dealings with them and lived in the fortress under the stone would not let go...... But what is the use of them stealing dwarven artifacts? Forget it, it doesn't matter what it's for, as long as you know that the silverblood family did it. ”

After staring at the stolen goods for a long time, Atreous turned his attention back to mine. He put down the forged metal plate in his hand, walked up to me, and sternly asked for my opinion.

"If I want to use this stolen goods to expose the Silverblood Family, are you willing to testify for me?"

Atrix's tone was very resolute, and it seemed that even if I wanted to stay out of the matter, he would not let go of this opportunity to accuse the Silverblood Family.

Atres has a grudge against the Silverbloods, and he once told me that his father owned a mine in Rich, but his father was assassinated by the Oathbreakers. This is counterintuitive, as the targets of the Oathbreaker usually fall only on the Nords, and Atrex's father, a Brighton native of the same origin as the Oathbreaker, should not suffer this fate.

As a result, Aitez had been deeply suspicious of the Silverblood family, the direct beneficiaries of the assassination, all these years. Since the riots at Hidana Prison a few days ago, Atrex has finally learned from me that the Silverblood family has colluded with the Oathbreakers, and his father's death has been given a more complicated connotation.

Atreous has never been able to find evidence, and coupled with his own weak strength, he naturally can't shake the high-ranking silver-blooded family in the slightest, but now the situation is different. There are all human and material evidence, the bitter lord is a noble court mage, sneaking into the fortress under the stone to steal is undoubtedly an offense to the authority of the lord, if this theft case happens, although it is unlikely to let the silver-blood family ambush, but pay a heavy price will definitely not be able to escape.

After coming to Marcas and seeing it, I don't have any good feelings about the Silverblood Family, and it's just cheap to get involved with them now. But to ask me, an outsider with no roots, to take the initiative to stand up against the powerful snake of the earth, this is a bit of a tired and crooked meaning.

"Although you have conclusive physical evidence, my witness is not very reliable, do you think there are people in this city who listen to me?"

"Don't worry!" Atreous was full of confidence in this, "As long as the inside story is true, we are just an introduction, the lord wants to bring down the Silver Blood Family more than me, he will definitely seize this opportunity to weaken the Silver Blood Family!" ”

"But what do you think the Silverblood will do to those who try to bring them down? The lord can still compete with them with his family's great business, but we are completely different from small people, and those big people will not care about our life or death. ”

"This ......," Atrium finally showed a hint of hesitation.

"If your sacrifice for revenge is voluntary, then I have nothing to say, but you have a new wife and unborn children, and you must make all plans for your family!" Aware of Atries' weakness, I immediately cut through and persuaded him, "It's a matter of importance, think about it for a few more days, and then tell me what you have come up with after careful consideration." ”

"Okay...... I'll think about it again, but I'm not going to give up this incredible opportunity! (To be continued......)
