Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 2. Klaus' Treasure (2)

In Lycaen's answer, Joel smiles and asks.

“I feel a little down if I do that for you. ”

In response, Tehaz stepped forward.

“Do me a favor. If you can categorize it with emotion, we'll take care of the rest. You have things to find anyway, don't you? ”

When Lycaen spoke, Joel, who had not had much of a reaction, nodded his head as Tehaz spoke.

“I wouldn't be able to say no if Myster asked me himself. I understand.”

With Joel's permission, Lycaen nodded slowly toward the wall in the stone chamber.

“Hey, where are you going? ”

However, Lycaen stares at the wall without answering anything as if he couldn't hear Joel. When Joel saw that, he laughed as if it were a habit.

“Are you saying he wants to play with his work? ”

And again, Tehaz stepped forward.

“We'll do it ourselves for now. ”

From then on, the classification of the treasures began under Joel's command. From gold and silver jewelry to jewelry, to art like paintings, the treasures that Klaus had collected and collected were an enormous amount.

Despite the work done by relying on the light made by Tehaz after the light that had been emitted from the room when he first came in, all the classifications were finished until the next morning when the sun came back in.

And the group hears a story they can't help but doubt.

“W-what? ”

Sitting among the treasures lying on the bottom of the stone chamber, the Feron rubs his ear with an ungrateful face and asks.

“Approximately three billion argens. ”

“Four, three billion……! ”

It was an unstoppable amount. The amount of damage that was officially accounted for was around a billion argen years ago when Klaus was active. Of course, it was argued that the sum of the things that were behind the ugly or unreported would be twice as much. But what Joel is talking about right now is more than that.

Joel explained it to me.

“There are quite a few items that have gone up in value over a hundred years. Artisanal works and craftsmanship of renowned artisans are price-up over time, especially. ”

“Three billion argens...! ”

It was an unthinkable amount of money as a Persian.

It costs 20 Argents to buy wheat for a month for a poor family of four. The annual budget of Earl Prokers is 3 million argens, and the annual budget of the Kingdom of Bren is 300 million argens.

In other words, for the three billion argens, the four poor families mentioned earlier could eat for 12,500,000 years. It is the 1,000-year budget of Earl Prokers and the 10-year budget of the Kingdom of Brent.

Lycaen and Tehaz decided to split it in half, but even 1.5 billion argens was too large to be counted.

At that time, Lycaen appeared, wandering around the corners of the stone chamber all night looking for something.

“Hmm, more than I expected. That should be enough. ”

Lycaen said that with a non-bulky look, even though it was a mouthful of money.

But it was the look on his face that Lycaen had never shown before. Complex expression that makes my eyes blush while forcibly holding back my smile and staring into the air. However, on the other hand, I felt like I was very satisfied with something.

Are you watching? It's time to start. '

He also said that he was going towards his friend Lycaen, who gave him a goal to move on with his life.

I wasn't happy because I got big money. He was happy that he was finally ready to start doing what Licagien had asked him to do. In addition, I was happy to find a part of the cost of life for 'Likayen’.

I don't know why, but I felt a strange feeling about Priella and Fertemperature because of the expression that seemed familiar and pathetic. But the atmosphere did not last long.

“What are you doing?”

Joel interrupted and cut off the atmosphere. Then, after realizing that he was not as sentimental as usual, Lycaen said, clearing his throat.

“Hmmm, there's something a grim fellow like you doesn't know. ”

“Well, maybe that's the case. Anyway, the sorting is done... but we have a problem. ”

Joel said with a serious look on his face. And this time, Lycaen smiled strangely.

“Hehe, because of this? ”

At that, Joel raises his head, startled, and jumps to his feet.

“Well, that! ”

What Lycaen was carrying was a big bag. Everything from knives to handles and slightly exposed blades is black. The only ornament on the sword was a black jewel with two cracks embedded in its handle. Joel was the one who came here to claim Kleus' throne.

Joel looks at the Dagger and sees Lycaen with a baby's face. He smiled that Lycaen was accusing him of something, but he handed him a big hand.

Then Joel swiftly snatches the Dagger away from someone else.

“Tsk, do you think I'm so small that I don't even give you this? ”

But Joel was distracted by looking at the Dagger as if he couldn't hear Ricaien. That look on Joel's face was no different from what Lycaen had just made.

Lycaen saw it, he said.

“What are you doing?”

“Hmm, there's something you don't know. ”

Lycaen smiles again, watching Joel give an answer that is not that different from him.

Joel is anxious to get his hands on Kleus' Dagger. He asks for Lycaen.

“Where did you find this? ”

Lycaen twists slightly, pointing to a wall deep in the stone chamber where there is no light. Following Lycaen's handgesture to the wall, Joel noticed a square hole in the wall.

‘With this, we have everything. What's left now... ’

Joel clenches his fist as if he were holding something by himself, placing a large object in the hole, then closes his eyes and bows.

After a short while, Joel comes back for the Dagger and asks for Lycaen.

“Did you look at the wall to find this? ”

“If you think about it, isn't it with the treasure piled up? ”

“I did... But I didn't expect you to find this for yourself. ”

Seeing Joel's strangely impressed face, Lycaen told me it was nothing.

“Keep it as long as you promise to give me the Dagger. ”

“Anyway... Thank you. ”

“Damn it. You should have found it anyway. I'm just tired of classifying them, man. ”

Of course, Joel was thinking of looking into the stone chamber, confirming that there were no large stones in the treasure. However, it did not take away the feeling of gratitude.

At that moment, Joel's eyes saw one of Lycaen's mouths curl up. While thinking something was wrong, Lycaen said something amazing.

“So now you want to take over the art room guild? ”

At that moment, Joel's thin eyes grew as big as a flashlight.

“How did you... how did you... Are you...? ”

Joel stuttered and couldn't hide his confused expression without showing his normal calm demeanor.

Lycaen sighed for a short time.

“Just in case. ”

“What? What's that? So you've been thinking about me? ”

Joel asked with a look on his face, "No way." Naturally, the Artroom Guild was a veil-wrapped organization that had never been seen outside in history.

In other words, it is impossible for someone who does not know about the Artroom Guild to put the Artroom Guild in their mouth. Besides, it can't come out unless you know that Klaus' grandfather has something to do with the Artroom Guild.

Joel's mind grows deeper in confusion. He said to Joel, "Lycaen is nothing."

“I had no idea at first. I didn't think Klaus' grandfather was a symbol of the Master of the Artroom Guild. However, I was wondering if he saw the image of the split black full moon, the symbol of the Artroom Guild on Klaus' grandfather's banner. ”

“However, the Artroom Guild has never been exposed to the outside. Then how do you recognize the markings? Unless you're a guild member there... ”

“Artroom Guild. As the continent's largest information guild, the Master's seat is always empty. Only those who come to the 'art room’, which is a symbol of the master, can sit there. ”

“Hey, you're the guild! ”

The cold life extends from Joel's body all over the place. However, Riccianne remained intact.

“Let's not dwell on such nonsense. Just trust me. ”

But I had no idea that the life spurted from Joel would fade away.

“Phew, are you stupid? If I was a guild member, why would I give it to you? ”

“Hmm!"

Only then did Joel reap life. Klaus' Dagger, also known as the Artroom, was one of the most intelligent guilds on the continent. It doesn't make sense to hand it over so easily.

“But how the hell did you.... ”

“I think you should pay attention to that because I have my own way of doing things. ”

Of course, what Lycaen learned about the Art Room Guild was through ‘Previous Memories.'
