Chapter 21: The Ruins

"Actually...... My grandpa...... It's a pirate! ”

……

……

Sasuke was silent.

Paimon was silent.

"Oh."

Paimon replied indifferently, and the expression on her face seemed to say, "That's why you called the fire here."

It's a mess.

“…… No, no, no. Your reaction is too cold. Don't you believe me? ”

Kaeya pointed to the blindfold on his right eye and said:

"Look! My blindfold is the heredity of my pirate grandfather, and that's proof of my blood relatives! ”

Paimon spread his hands.

"Can the blindfold still be inherited?"

"That's amazing."

Kaeya ignored the yin and yang weirdness and continued to say to Sasuke:

"Last night, I flipped through the notes left by my grandfather and stumbled upon the information about the treasure left by my grandfather."

"Treasure?"

Sure enough, when Paimon heard the word treasure, Paimon immediately became enthusiastic and leaned over to Kaeya.

"What treasure?"

"According to Grandpa's notes, it seems that the treasure was buried [in the Lost Ruins of Arcadia]."

"But there is no clue as to where exactly the location of this relic is."

Kaeya spoke eloquently, and Paimon's curiosity had been ticked out when he heard this series of bluffing jargon.

"Kaeya! What kind of treasure is that! Gold? Or a gem? ”

Sasuke looked at Kaeya with some suspicion.

Originally, he thought that Kaeya was so pretending to be mysterious, and he really wanted to tell him something amazing, and what kind of treasure it turned out to be......

Thinking about it, the voice in my heart didn't seem to prompt Kaeya to identify with him.

Although Sasuke also knew that the illusory voice was not a criterion for judging, it still had reference value.

Just what exactly does Kaeya mean? It's a pirate again, it's a treasure again......

He's not as single-celled as Paimon, Kaeya is not a simple person, he obviously has treasures, but it's inconvenient to tell his colleagues in the Knights, but he mentions to himself, what is the purpose of his doing this?

"Hmph, if there are only treasures of treasures, they are just some third-rate goods."

Kaeya also spread his hands.

"My grandfather's treasure is a sword."

"It is said to be a divine sword that can obtain invincible power if you hold it!"

"That sword was lost by the gods of Sky Island and fell into the sea, and was salvaged by Grandpa and them."

"The moment he held the hilt of the sword, lightning flashed and thundered, huge waves churned, and a storm suddenly rolled up on the sea that was originally clear sky!"

"Relying on the power of the Excalibur, Grandpa defeated the eight-headed sea serpent, the silver-haired banshee, and the abyssal evil dragon along the way."

"But it's too powerful for other pirates to covet."

"In order to avoid disputes, Grandpa can only hide the Excalibur."

“……”

Hearing this, Sasuke was almost certain that what Kaeya said earlier was nonsense.

But Paimon didn't think so, and still said cheerfully:

"Wow~~~~~ wow! It's just amazing. ”

And Kaeya continued:

"Recently, a group of treasure hoarders has been very active, and there have been thefts of artifacts from several sites."

"I'm afraid Arcadia will be discovered by them soon, and then that Excalibur ......"

Paimon took the bait and said to Sasuke:

"That's not going to work! Rather than fall into the wrong hands, let's ......"

"In short, don't worry! Sasuke and I will help. ”

Paimon then whispered into Sasuke's ear and conspired in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Sasuke, let's go find this Excalibur! Such a powerful divine sword will definitely help you quickly improve your strength, and you can bring this thing to your world, so you will definitely be more sure in that world. ”

"When the time comes, if Kaeya asks, I'll help you testify, and say that we didn't find Excalibur."

Sasuke had wanted to refuse, and this kind of nonsense plot sounded like a treasure game that only a kid would play as a child.

But after thinking about it, if there are really ruins, then there may happen to be scattered wind god pupils in the ruins, after all, there is no law in the dispersion of wind god pupils.

And Paimon's words also warmed his heart.

For the past few days, he's been on a mission in the field, and Paimon has been sleeping with him, saying that it's impossible to say that it's not touching at all.

It's better to mess around with her once.

"Okay."

Sasuke opened his mouth and responded.

"Haha, that's pretty awesome."

"Please remember to keep it a secret, I'll wait for your news."

After revealing the "secret", Kaeya quickly leaves the corner alley, leaving Sasuke and Paimon behind.

"That's right."

After Kaeya leaves, Paimon suddenly realizes.

"Kaeya doesn't seem to have told us where the Arcadia ruins are?"

"Go to the Adventurers' Guild and ask, there are a lot of people over there who are keen on adventure and pioneering, there should be news."

Sasuke said.

He's been dealing with the Adventurers' Guild a lot lately, and occasionally he'll hear them gossiping about where they've found a new ruin, which is very dangerous, but there's bound to be a lot of good stuff.

……

"Oh roar! Isn't this the hilichurl killer Sasuke Uchiha, who has come to take on the hilichurl hunting mission again? ”

At an open-air wine stall next to the Adventurers' Guild, a big man greeted Sasuke warmly.

Now Sasuke is a big celebrity here, and he doesn't talk much, so he's very reliable.

"No, President Cyrus, let's do something more exciting today."

Before Sasuke could speak, Paimon's big colander said:

"We're looking for a ...... that fell from the Isle of Skye and slew the eight-headed banshee, the silver-haired sea serpent."

"Super super powerful Excalibur!"

“……”

"It's the eight-headed sea serpent, the silver-haired banshee, and Paimon, you've revealed too much information, it's our secret."

Paimon leaked all the information, but Sasuke thought it was a smoke screen for Kaeya.

And just now, he already felt several eyes on him.

Reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance are the basic skills of ninjas.

And Sasuke combined with Kaeya's previous appearance, and probably guessed what Kaeya wanted to do, so in the end, Sasuke specially raised his voice a little.

"Huh? Uh-uh, it's pretty much the same! Anyway...... It's amazing. ”

"Anyway, we just don't tell where the treasure is."

"So, Mr. Cyrus, do you know where the lost ruins of Arcadia are?"

“……”

Very good, Paimon deserves to be Paimon, so he said it naturally, but it also saved Sasuke a little bit of hinting effort.

Cyrus touched his chin with a golden beard.

"The ruins of Arcadia, the ruins of unheard of."

"But thank you for sharing the information. If you find that Excalibur, remember to show it to me. ”

"Sharing information?"

Paimon touched his head.

And the corner of Sasuke's eye also caught a glimpse of a guy who was originally mixed in the crowd, and quietly withdrew.
