Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Episode IX Treasure Hunting ①

"Is this the metastasis..."

"Really for a moment."

Right now, we're just picking up Shelley, Leena and Bell and then returning to the realm.

Brother Ivan and Mr. Eunice were impressed with their first metastasis.

"This is... where?

I didn't even know the metastasis existed. Mr. Flair is surprised, or confused, though.

"This is inside a castle on Murdine soil."

"Is this the place?

Well, you can't believe it, can you?

"That's right. Metastases allow you to travel in an instant."

"It's really a moment..."

"I knew you'd be surprised when you had your first metastasis."

"Yes. It's really a moment."

Shelley and Leena missed it as they looked at the surprised Mr. Flair.

"Well, then, we need to get Mr. Edwan to get us a room for our brothers and Mr. Flair."

Then, I summoned Mr. Edwan and asked him to guide my brothers.

Meanwhile, I was relaxing in my room with Shelley and the others.

"I think this has reduced the anxiety element a little bit"

Plus I may have bought a grudge against the Filibels, but with no money. Then you won't be able to do anything, so don't worry.

"Really, good. What are you going to do from tomorrow?

Leena asked me a question, saying so with sincere pleasure.

Starting tomorrow......

"In the meantime, you want to take everything that's going to be gold out of Gotz's house and do something with that money back in hand."

"I see. How much Gotz was saving up, when his future moves change"

Boulder Leena, you know.

Truth is, the way the Gots were saving up is going to change their behavior.

Maybe the next two months will just be over thinking about making money.

"Right. In the meantime, I'll go to Gotz's tomorrow."

Let's think about the future.

"Can we go, too?

"Will you wait for me this time? It's the enemy's house for once, and there may be some kind of trap."

Besides, there are still Gotz servants in the mansion.

"Okay. I'm leaving you quietly. Oh, well, then, just leave the monitor."

"Monitor? Oh, that's the thing. Fine."

With that stolen rat, you can see me from afar.

Shelley would like to use it to see how the treasure hunt goes.

"Yay. I'm watching the moment of treasure discovery."

"I don't think you should expect that much. You saw his belly, didn't you? Absolutely, I don't think there's much money left to play with."

No matter how much you play, unless you have enough money to run out of.

Well, you won't have to be disappointed later if you don't expect it.

"Eh."

"Well, I can't help it."

Even so, I'd expect it.

The Next Day

"Well, I'll be there."

I greeted everyone before I left the castle.

Everyone was supposed to be watching what was going on in my room.

Rats, on my shoulder, will enjoy the treasure hunt with my gaze.

"Come on in. I'm looking forward to it."

"Please don't push me"

"Dear Leo, safety first, please"

Shelley, Leena and Bell said that and looked anxious.

"You don't have to worry about it. 'Cause I'm taking a lot of red golems, too."

The last time I built a lot for castle security, I overbuilt it, and you're still sleeping in a bunch of backpacks.

"Really...... ok"

Leena, who knows how many golems I have, is relieved of a little anxiety.

"Are you sure, Master Leo, that you will go yourself? I think we should let the knights go."

Mr. Flair, who knows nothing, still seems anxious.

Well, regular aristocrats don't go out of their way to dangerous places.

"That's not true. Probably the safest place for me to go. Besides, I don't have a Knights."

Yeah, the Knights don't do anything about it either...

You can't have all the golems on a boulder.

"Well, still... if anything happens to Master Leo..."

Yeah...... how can I persuade you?

Mr. Flair can't say it strongly because he would be seriously worried about me...

"Flair, don't worry about it. Leo's the strongest of them all. Probably stronger than the captain."

My brother helped me when I was worried.

"Oh, really?

Mr. Flair asked me back because he couldn't believe his brother's words.

"As it were, well... If you're worried, watch the footage there. Nothing. I'll finish it."

That's what I said, I pointed to the monitor.

"... ok"

Mr. Flair said something, he said, but he swallowed it and accepted it.

"So I'm going"

I was able to get everyone's consent, so I left the room.

First, move near Gotz's house.

Then I reached in front of Gotz's house relying on Anna's guidance.

"This is his house? What aristocratic mansion... You're wasting money..."

Gotz's house was bigger than mine in Imperial City.

That's all I could see wasting it on.

"Well, let's get in."

First, I spoke amicably to the gatekeeper.

"Excuse me. Are you sure at Mr. Gotz's house?

"Oh, yeah. What's the requirement?

The gatekeeper man has responded to the bluff.

Well, I can't help but dress like an adventurer right now.

"That's right. These are the requirements."

I had no choice, so I handed the letter I wrote to the gatekeeper.

"What... Now that Mr. Gotz's embezzlement has been found, we are seizing Mr. Gotz's property. Leons Muldeen"

"Huh? Master Gotz caught?

When one gatekeeper read out the letter, he asked me in surprise.

"Yes, I've been caught. So could you please leave there?

I asked kindly.

"No, can I trust something a kid like you brought me, go home"

That's what the gatekeeper said and tore the letter to bits.

"Eh. I think we should follow this place very carefully."

"What if I don't obey? What can you do?

Am I allowed to say that?

"You can do this"

I got two red golems out of my backpack.

"Hey, what... it's..."

The gatekeeper lost his hips when he saw the sudden appearance of the golem.

"What do you want to do? If you don't make up your mind soon, you'll be forced to go inside, won't you?

Now, I asked him to do it with a threat.

The Red Golem approaches the gatekeeper.

"Wow, I get it. Duh, go ahead..."

The gatekeeper opened the gate for me as I slipped my hips.

"Yeah. Honest and good. Then keep an eye on no one else getting in."

That said, I left the two golems intact for outside surveillance with the two gatekeepers.

"Then hurry to find it before it's hidden"

With that said, we line up the red golem in a vast garden for nothing.

Probably more than fifty.

"Moving in pairs. Not to get your hands on anyone who works here unless you resist. If you've done something, tie it up and disable it without killing it. The golden-eyed objects shall be brought to this garden as soon as they are found. And that you contact me as soon as something goes wrong. Please protect the above and act from now on. Well, let's get started."

When the Golems heard my orders, they moved toward the Mansion in unison.

"Shall I go too? Say hello, Anna."

That's what I told Anna.

(Got it. Start directing you to the safe)

When Anna said so, an arrow appeared on the goggle.

(Oh, boulder Anna. I even know where the safe is)

While impressed with Anna, as she entered the mansion, the maids looked surprised.

You wouldn't know anything, so suddenly a lot of people would come in and be scared.

"Excuse me. Please be adult. I'll explain when it's all over."

Running through the mansion saying that repeatedly, I noticed something.

"This mansion, is there only a maid?

I watched every inch of it as I ran, but I still didn't see a butler or a guard soldier.

"Maybe... you were thinking about making the inside of the mansion a woman other than yourself and a harem?

Sure, they said you liked women...

"Shit...... that's it"

With that said, I reached the deepest room on the ground floor of the mansion.

"Is there a safe here? I don't see you anywhere, though?

It was a very ordinary bedroom with a bed in the center of the room and then just a painting with a woman painted on the wall.

(No, go away with the painting)

"Picture? Okay."

I tried to take the painting off the wall, as Anna told me.

Then... there was the keyhole.

"This is the safe? The wall's in the vault?

It's a lot bigger than that.

(No, you don't. In the meantime, unlock it)

"How? Do I have to look for the keys now?

(No, make a magic item)

"Oh, is that okay then? I just got my backpack."

With that said, I took the Demon Stone and Mithril out of my backpack.

And I used creative magic as it was.

What was done...

< universal key >

It can be any key.

Allow the keyhole to do this for optimal key shape and can be easily unlocked

Creator: Leons Muldeen

Again, you've got something convenient.

Let's not abuse it.

"Well, do you want to open it"

I inserted the universal key around.

Then there was the sound of a kacha and something opened up.

"Nothing's gonna change, though?

The keys are open, but the walls don't even work together.

(No, it has changed. Look beside the bed)

"Next to the bed? Wow, there's a hole."

Looking back, for some reason there was a big hole next to the bed.

(You can go underground from there)

That's what they said and I glanced through the hole...... there was a staircase leading down there.

"I see... is it in a hidden room..."

(Yes, there's a safe under here)

"You're wasting too much money. Crime prevention awareness too high"

Well, I guess it's to hide the good money somehow.

I took the wana terrace out of my backpack because it was dark and went down the stairs...... I came out into a room with two doors.

"Which one of these has a safe?

(The safe is in the room on the right)

Right. What's on the left?

Do you want to go later?

"Well, let's just go right"

I opened the door on the right and went into the back room.

Then... there was a large metal door on one side of the room.

"Wow - that's a big safe. Now, if the contents are soggy, let's go beat him up."

When I approached the safe saying that, there were four dials.

"This is your PIN... Gots to hear it from Gotz..."

Do we have to go back to the castle again?

That's a hassle......

(It's okay. I can tell. It's all seven)

And Anna told me briefly when I thought about it.

"Huh? Really? Well, all seven..."

You were tough until you got here, and you ruined it at the end.

"Seven, seven, seven, seven and... Oh, it's open. He's an idiot..."

I opened the heavy vault door with that said.

Then...

"Shit. How much I've been saving..."

Inside the vault were gold coins and treasures that were very expensive to see.

"What was he trying to do with this money? Well, I'll forgive you because it'll be mine from today on. In the meantime, shall I leave this treasure here? If you do something about the safe, it's safest to leave it here."

I can't even put all this in my backpack.

Without Anna like me, you wouldn't even know the hidden room exists.

Later, we need to confiscate the keys to the stash room from Gotz.

(Right. Let's remodel the safe)

"Yeah. Okay."

I took out the demon stone and cast creative magic on the vault.

And what was done...

Safety Deposit

Whatever happens, I'll try to protect your treasure.

We can't open this safe unless we break through biometrics.

Creator: Leons Muldeen

"Oh, that's all right."

(Yes, I'm fine. Try opening it. Touch the safe and biometrics will start)

Oh, I see.

"Okay. I'll try."

I touched the safe just like Anna told me.

Then he said, 'Biometric complete. Definitely Master Leons Muldeen,' he said, opening the vault.

"I see. This is going to be okay. Shall we look at the other rooms, then? Oh, speaking of which, why don't you go over the door on the left just now"

My treasure hunt still continues...
