I Robbed the Demon’s Warehouse

chapter 140



140. Chapter 140

“Skabe’s commander-in-chief, Ascal, sees the lord.”

“Oh, our captain personally brought guests. Good job.”

As soon as he opened the door and entered, Sewoon and the leader bowed their heads.

The memory of the time before returning came to mind, and I didn’t like bowing my head in front of others, but isn’t there a saying to follow the Roman law?

I intend to follow the minimum etiquette.

No matter what anyone says, he is the person who will give Sewoon a ‘compensation’, so there was nothing good about him from the beginning.

“I heard the story from the commander of the southern gate. They said that he made a great contribution to preventing the monster attack with his amazing force.”

“yes.”

“Thanks to that, I didn’t have to hold a soldier’s funeral this year. thank you so much. Ah, first of all, I have to repay you. Hello.”

Following the lord’s instructions, four servants appeared with a huge treasure chest.

It was large in size, but it seemed to be quite heavy, seeing as the servants were having a hard time carrying it.

thud!

As soon as they arrived in front of Sewoon, they put down the treasure chest and unlocked it with a fancy-looking key.

When the lid was opened, the chest was filled with gold coins and various jewels.

“hahahaha, you look embarrassed.”

Seeing the contents of the box, Sewoon made a puzzled expression for a moment.

The reward I had with Yasha before I left for the investigation was less than half of what I was seeing right now.

But why are they paying so many rewards?

When I thought of the people I’d dealt with so far, I thought that there was no way a person would do such a favor for no reason.

While Sewoon was shaking his head, Yeongju continued talking with a soft smile.

“Thanks to you, we have fewer repairs to the walls this year. Other than that, the soldiers’ consolation money and medical expenses, etc. We could have saved a lot of money.”

“Are you giving me that money?”

“Of course, not all. Still, I wanted to show you my heart as much as possible by recalling your performance.”

No lies were visible on his face. That means that these many rewards are pure ‘favor’.

To be honest, it was hard to understand.

I expected that the lord of Skabe would be a good person, but I thought he would be one of the greedy powers.

‘Then what happened at the entrance… … Did the leader do it arbitrarily?’

Sewoon bowed his head and expressed his gratitude.

If this was the goal of something, it didn’t matter. As soon as Sewoon finished maintenance at Skabe, he was going to leave for the next ordeal.

Even after that, the lord’s good words continued for a while.

And after a while, the expression of the lord, who had been infinitely soft, hardened a little.

“and… … .”

Judging by the blurring of his words, he seemed to know roughly what the lord was thinking.

It must be about an exiled shaman.

“The shaman of our city. No, I’ve heard of someone who used to be a shaman. I never thought I would have been expelled from the city and did such a thing… … .”

What I saw on the lord’s face was not anger.

sadness and sorry.

It was an incomprehensible feeling for Sewoon.

Perhaps, it was because there was something intertwined between them that Sewoon was unaware of.

“I have something to show you. Will you follow me?”

“yes.”

Sewoon put the treasure chest in front of him into his subspace pocket.

Even the lord said that he didn’t know about the subspace pouch, and his eyes twinkled, but he didn’t show greed.

Literally just curious.

After that, I moved to the underground stairs hidden behind the lord’s office with the leader.

It was a secret door that opened with a mechanical device, but it was a door that he would never have found if he hadn’t opened it himself because he couldn’t feel any trace of mana.

‘Is this the place Yasha said?’

I could tell intuitively.

The place I’m going down now is where the mural Yasha said is located.

As he descended the stairs, the lord’s expression completely disappeared.

“This is a space created by our ancestors from the moment Skabe first settled down. Later, Jevis Seru… … It was the space he used.”

Indeed, the structures seen on the way down the stairs showed traces of time.

at least hundreds of years. It looked like a place that had existed for over a thousand years.

“Originally, it was said that the ancestors made it out of reverence for a great being.”

Awe.

It also meant respect for someone, but there was extreme fear as well as respect.

Listening to the lord’s explanation, he had already descended all the stairs. At the end of the stairs was a long hallway.

It was a wider area than expected for a simple hallway, but there, as Seun expected… … .

“And this is a mural left by our ancestors.”

Unknown murals were carved all over the walls and ceilings.

– The constellation ‘Crow with Head Down’ questions the fact that there is a legend in the tower that he doesn’t know about.

-The constellation ‘Serpent Surrounding Envy’ rolls its head, linking information from the statue and mural.

-Constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’ closes his eyes, saying that he will vomit again.

It was a very elaborate mural, but the content was too abstract.

The letters were not visible at all, and the contents were only connected by pictures, but even that was so badly damaged that it was difficult to recognize.

“Originally, the damage wasn’t that bad. Jevis Seru. When I expelled him and came down, the mural looked like this.”

Exiled shaman, Jevis Seru. What was he doing here?

Could it be that he recognized the existence of the outer through the mural and tried to break the seal?

The mural was damaged, and the shaman was already dead, so there was no way to find out.

Even so, I couldn’t just pass by the mural in front of my eyes.

“Can I leave this mural I saw?”

“hahahaha, it doesn’t matter as long as it’s floating around. However, this place is no different from the relics of our ancestors, so it is difficult to call in the people needed to copy the mural… … .”

“That’s fine.”

“Although the damage is severe, it is a space as big as a decent building. It will be difficult alone.”

The lord was right.

Even if you call people, it will take at least a week to copy all the murals here.

However, Seun had a ‘treasure’ to make it possible.

– The treasure house of greed has been opened.

[ Empty mural ]

– Blank paper prepared by the demon of greed to imitate various artworks.

Treasures of material value were not the only things that existed in Mamon’s warehouse.

There were works of art that encompassed each dimension, as well as works of art such as paintings.

This white paper was prepared by Mammon himself to imitate them.

Just unfolding a blank sheet and designating a target… … .

Shuhua!

“Oh oh… … !”

It was possible to bring the specified picture as it is.

The murals that filled the hallway were engraved on the white paper.

It may not be possible to repair the damaged part, but with this, the mural could be observed at any time.

The lord, who was watching the scene, exclaimed in exclamation. The same goes for the corps commander standing behind.

Since the city was relatively undeveloped with magic, each and every one of these sights would seem strange.

After all, magic and witchcraft are different from the basic concept.

-The constellation ‘Crow with her head down’ raises her claws and frowns when her treasure contains an unpleasant picture.

-If the constellation ‘Serpent Surrounding Envy’ is considered rare, it is a mural that is worth more than a fair amount of art.

-Constellation turns its beak, saying that even if the ‘Crow with its head lowered’ says that, the fact that it is a reluctant mural remains the same.

-The constellation ‘The Hungry Prince’ starts gagging, asking to put away the painting.

Sewoon put the paper with the mural on it into the subspace pocket.

If you ever get a chance to find out information about outerwear, this mural will definitely come in handy.

Even if that’s not the case, if you’re lucky, you might be able to restore the mural.

After that, I looked around the hallway more, but there was no sign except for the mural.

I heard about the legend through the lord, but I couldn’t get any useful information.

After looking around the hallway like that, I returned to the stairs.

“How about going home after a meal or something when you’re hungry?”

“thank you.”

“hahahaha, you said it was your first time to Skabe, right? Today I will taste all the delicacies of Sukabe!”

Sewoon was able to finish his first schedule by having lunch with the lord, who had become close to him.

* * *

After the first encounter with the lord of Skabe.

Time passed quickly for Clan Diablo, including Seun.

He recovered his exhausted body from challenging the ordeal in the desert and procured materials that could only be obtained from Skabe.

In particular, the twin sisters wanted a lot of materials to decorate their residence.

“Wow, brother! Did you get all of these?”

“amazing! I’m sure you said that trees are precious here! How did you get it?”

“There is a guild that is close to the lord of this place.”

“Wow, lord!”

“Wow, connections!”

It was a job to decorate the residence anyway, so Sewoon came out first and helped.

They were supplied with various trees and minerals through the guild that was connected through the lord.

No need to worry about money.

The treasure chest he received from the lord was full of gold coins commonly used in Skabe, so there was no reason to get ripped off, and the amount was huge.

Anyway, this gold coin was a currency that could only be used in Skabe, so there was no need to save it.

“Wow, this is cotton!”

“Let’s make a bed!”

“Oh yea! I was thinking about buying a whole bed at the inn, but it worked!”

Of course, they didn’t start decorating their residence right away. Because that was possible enough even in the middle of the ordeal.

Right now, it was most efficient to take actions that could only be done in Skabe.

In this way, various materials were being piled up in the residence of the Diablo Clan.

“Kang Han-cheol, how about taking a break?”

“I haven’t fully mastered Taeeulseom handong yet.”

“If you are Can I help you?”

“Cultivation alone is enough. Instead, ask for sparring in the afternoon.”

“good.”

Kang Han-cheol did not stop training even though he came to the shelter.

It is said that more than a hundred rocks have already been broken.

Since he never skipped sparring with Sewoon twice a day, his skills improved rapidly day by day.

The same goes for Yuseo.

While leading the Diablo clan, she did not forget personal training.

In particular, she was researching a way to use her potential ‘domination’ more efficiently.

This was a problem that only she could solve on her own, so Sewoon couldn’t get involved.

In addition to that, the Diablo clan prepared for trials in their own way.

“Now it is slowly being completed! If it wasn’t for Seun-ssi, time would not have been able to complete this week more, no.”

“Looking at it like this, I feel more confident.”

“hahahaha, even if it’s completed, I won’t be able to handle it with my skills yet… … .”

“Your skills will improve soon.”

“Is that right? I am also looking forward to it. hahahaha!”

The production of Baekhyun’s undead, which was in front of the wall, has also come to an end.

His skills were so good, and there was also the virtue of Sewoon taking the time to help him every day.

As I helped Baekhyun, I felt many eyes from behind.

After making the undead for several days, his work had already become a mysterious spectacle among the soldiers.

While appreciating the shape of the ‘predator of Saha’, which is as majestic as its size.

“Brother!”

A familiar voice came from behind.

Park Jeong-pil was the guy.

As soon as he arrived in Skabe, he wandered all over the city and lived a life of debauchery.

“Brother, brother! I found out a lot of information!”

“information?”

Still, it seems that wandering around the city was not a waste of time.

The guy shrugged his shoulders as if it was quite useful information, and found out the information he found out.

And that was one of Skabe’s key pieces of information that made even Sewoon’s eyes wide open.
