Madman in a Fantasy World

113. robbery thief

Have you ever heard of such a thing? subsistence thief. It refers to people who have no choice but to steal to make ends meet. However, a thief is a thief, and seeing that people label it as a livelihood type for a reason, I guess I am not an ordinary thief.

Although Richie is hanging out with me now, he is originally one of the main heroines who will save the world along with the main character, Arthur. With such a fate, she must become stronger than others. To do that, you need this artifact.

However, we do not have enough money to participate in the auction. So, I have no choice but to steal, but in this case, to live… no, wouldn’t it be right to see it as a salvation-type thief to save the world?

So I picked up a glass bottle that had been lying loosely on the floor. Then he reached out and showed it to the guards.

“Excuse me, can I have this delicious-looking drink?”

“Stop! Don’t move!”

The guards couldn’t pinpoint our exact location, and aimed their swords and spears in a fan shape. To be able to deal with an attack coming from any direction. The reason for doing so is probably because we haven’t taken off our bracelets yet, so we can’t see them.

No, but the world is going to end? There is someone by your side who can save you! Then, what if he gets angry and doesn’t save you guys later in the final battle? I put down the glass bottle I was holding and picked up a sword with a fancy appearance.

“Then may I take this needlessly cool-looking sword?”

“Stop talking nonsense and put it down right now!”

“This doesn’t work either. That doesn’t work either. If that’s the case, I guess I’ll have no choice but to switch to a robbery-type thief.”

This is why they are Umin. You can’t look to the distant future for the benefit of your eyes. It was predestined for demons to invade the empire at any given time. If so, let me give you a taste of some of the disaster. I took the sword out of my inventory and said.

“Luna, Richie. Kill them all.”

“…If you’re going to do this, is there a reason you sneaked in?”

“If there are no eyewitnesses, it’s an assassination. That’s also an infiltration.”

Assassination is killing without being noticed. Infiltrate is to hide secretly. What they have in common is that they don’t have to be noticed by anyone. Then, if there are no witnesses, wouldn’t that be an assassination and an infiltration? Before me and Luna charged, Lychee’s first attack attacked the guards.

-bang!

The effect of Liche’s flame, which was enhanced with an artifact, was certain. The place where the flames passed melted away, leaving only an unnatural appearance.

“What is it…? Suddenly getting this strong?”

“That’s the effect of your ring.”

The firepower that surprised even the person who used the magic. This is why artifacts are expensive. Of the items we picked up, there were only two artifacts, but even those two artifacts are so powerful that it hurts to say the least. I couldn’t check the level of the guards in detail, but looking at the fact that they were just blown away by the attack, I could tell that it wasn’t that high.

“Now, now, everyone. Disaster doesn’t wait?”

It comes at will and disappears at will. Literally a disaster. Even when you are dazed by your opponent’s overwhelming force, disaster will take your life. With a swing of my sword, I knocked off two guards at once. At the same time, on the other side, Luna assassinated two guards.

When I killed all the guards at the entrance and went outside, the hallway was already lined with guards.

“Haa… well, it’s so annoying.”

If I had known it would be like this, I would have stayed at the dorm. I just sent the three of them including Yui and told them to rob everything and come back. I only made Yui do good things.

“I can’t help it. We have to deal with it quickly and escape.”

“Why don’t you turn back the time for just one hour?”

“Is that possible?”

“Gorumgorum.”

I took the bomb out of my inventory. Nothing is impossible with my killer queen.

“If you explode this, you can only set it back an hour.”

“…Doesn’t the process get rid of and only the results remain?”

Oh… In a way, you can see it that way. Bites the Dust or King Crimson? That’s the problem.

“Anyway, it’s a fait accompli. Let’s light the fuse and think about it.”

“Then we get caught up in it too…?”

“You and Luna are about to die from a bomb?”

come now? If you’re only going to die that much, it might be better to just die now. Later, there are many things that are more dense than bombs, but compared to that, bombs are weak.

“Attach quickly. Before more guards arrive.”

“okay···.”

Fire – The fire on Liche’s finger is transferred to the fuse. Immediately after setting fire, Liche hid behind me and created a shield with magic alone, and Luna similarly created a shield by herself behind me.

All the guards who saw the fuse catch fire were busy running away. The speed was faster as the fuse burned out, but I wasn’t the one watching it. How nice it would be if you could avoid the bomb by running away. I picked up the bomb that was about to explode and threw it in the direction of the guard.

-bang!!

When the bomb exploded and the smoke cleared, all that was left in the hallway was a fallen guard and us standing still. Of course, it was only the hallway. The huge hall at the entrance to the auction house was full of guards like respawned monsters.

“Do I really have to deal with this all the way up?”

“I think so.”

“Haa… It’s annoying.”

Just as I was about to take out another bomb, Luna sneaked up next to me and asked me a question.

“By the way, Mr. Luke, what are you going to do with the aftermath?”

“What’s behind the scenes?”

“As the imperial family uses it, I think it will be investigated.”

“Hmm…”

I heard that. The workplace used by the highest-ranking people in the country was robbed overnight, and there is no way they can stand still. If you don’t have to wait until morning, if you delay here a little longer, reinforcements will come. Not the normal knights, but assassin-like guys whose main stage is in a place like this in the shadows.

“I’ll have to deal with it properly and run away.”

If the strong guys came, how strong would they be? It’s okay to take care of everything and go, but staying up all night is a bit like that. Because sleep is important. So I’m going to explode some bombs and run away. Isn’t there an artifact that I got to use at such a time? If I use this, even if the Empire investigates, I will be removed from the line of the dragon.

I took out the bast face I had put in earlier from my inventory and put it on. Then, by untying the bracelet, the invisibility was canceled. The voices of Luna and Richie, who saw me slowly revealing themselves, were full of embarrassment.

“Luke-sama…?”

“That figure…”

The reason why Luna and Richie are embarrassed. That’s because the face I changed into a bast face mask is someone I know well. In particular, I must have watched Lee’s side to the point of getting tired of it. Currently, wearing a bast face mask, others will see me as a man with red hair and auburn eyes.

“I saved it to use it at a time like this.”

Why would I let a toilet that was just stuffy to look at with cancerous lumps alive? Other people may think so. But the reason why I kept the toilet alive is because it has a lot of uses like it does now. For example, when clean-up is needed like now, when extras poop, you can leave all the troublesome things behind by putting on the toilet mask like now.

‘Though it’s unpleasant to pretend to be a toilet.’

Anyway, lighting the bomb in the form of a toilet, I threw it in the middle of the guards and sprinted toward the entrance.

“My name is Arthur!”

-bang!!

***

next day.

As always, Arthur, who woke up early in the morning and swung his sword at the training ground, showed that he couldn’t concentrate. Contrary to the body movements I’ve become accustomed to from swinging too much, my mind was a jumbled mess.

‘Rice…’

It’s only been two days since she dropped out. It had only been two days since the girl who would have been his heroine disappeared from the academy. Did the main characters of the NTR novel feel like this? If he had a teacher, he would have been beaten for having too many thoughts on his sword.

A lot of things have happened so far, so I was confident that I could be okay with most things. It was Arthur who was in a state of mind at a situation that did not even sound like a heroine dropout.

Even if it was a sub-heroine, the main heroine dropped out. Arthur put down his sword and washed his face dry with both hands. In the meantime, I could see knights wearing white armor between their fingers entering the academy in perfect order.

‘Did something happen…?’

Because they wore the imperial family pattern on their armor, they could tell where they belonged without having to concentrate. Actually, there were many incidents at the academy, so it must be something related to that. The moment Arthur thought so and picked up his sword to focus on training again.

The knights who suddenly met Arthur’s eyes started walking in a straight line towards him. Then, suddenly, the knights drew their swords and aimed their swords at Arthur.

“You are arrested on charges of theft and terrorism! Quietly surrender!”

“Yes?!”

What is this all of a sudden coming in?! No, theft and terrorism in the first place! I’ve never stolen anything, much less have I done anything like terrorism! I haven’t been out of the academy for months, so where is the time for theft and terrorism?

‘What kind of event is this?!’

It is an unheard of situation. Is there an event that I forgot after being possessed for so long? I thought about it, but nothing came to mind. No, if it was an event in which the main character was dragged away by the knights, there is no way I wouldn’t remember it.

“Now, wait a minute! I think there’s a misunderstanding!”

“Stop talking nonsense and follow me! Because it’s Hwangmyeong, you have no veto!”

“Wow, Hwangmyeong?!”

“You’d better follow me quietly!”

clap. In the blink of an eye, Arthur’s hands were handcuffed. That’s the morning Arthur hasn’t woken up yet. dragged by knights
