Despite the summer nights, the effect of magic items that bring cold air inside the Marchelle family mansion keeps temperatures easier to spend than outside.
But still, if he moves around hard inside, he naturally sweats, and a large number of adventurers were now walking around the house of the Marstells, which is kept cool, scratching sweat on his forehead.
Already at night, it's usually time to drink, go out to the pleasure streets and head to the whorehouse, or the early sleepers, but there are a large number of adventurers walking around, running around and screaming in the current Marstelle family mansion.
"Is this material okay with the name of the merchant who bought the jewels?
"Oh.... it's just that only the merchants on the table are all on that document. As for the merchant in the back, it must have been in your drawer."
In one room, check the paperwork while flipping the paperwork in the desk…
"Ahhhhhh!
"What the hell!?... and that the plants are monstered! Wait, I'll help you in a minute!
"Hey, hey, hey, don't look at me! My clothes... my clothes melt!
Also, is it the result of Prix's research in one room? A woman adventurer who was checking inside the room had trouble getting her clothes melted and her skin dewy...
"This is all the jewelry?... I guess I should just say the Marstells"
"They were turning a good portion of the money they got into jewelry purchases. Still, this..."
"Hey, don't even think about getting nostalgic. If the Silva family finds out, we can't live in peace."
"I know. But it's good enough to take a look."
"... that's about it"
In one room, a female adventurer is blinded by the gems present throughout the room, and advises her fellow adventurers who were watching it not to imitate strangely.
"Ugh, hey, what is this..."
"This mountain of bones... hey, seriously. You don't count 10 or 20 people, this is. 100... if you do poorly, that's more than that..."
"Sounds like we're dealing with something magical for once, so there's nothing like being undead."
"I thought it was odd because all those traps were set up to get inside. Not a pile of treasure, but a pile of bones."
"And this bone, you have some sort of magical procedure. Maybe he was going to use it for something."
In one room, a human bone turned into a mountain in the literal sense… it was also discovered to have undergone some sort of magical treatment.
And...
"Wow, this is... you've been hoarding around a lot"
One room in the Marchelle family. That too, the adventurers who went inside the hidden room that the bandits found unexpectedly squeak.
What's in the room are tons of magic items. There are also a number of objects that can only be found in the dungeon, and given how the Marstells got them, those on the spot could only exhale bitterly.
"Hey, look at that. There are so many Devil's Swords in the dungeon that you will rarely find."
"Oh.... hey, we're the only ones who can't handle this. Hey, I'm sorry, but I need you to call Master Bosque. I want instructions."
"Ah? Ah, oh. Okay. I'll call you right back!
One of the adventurers leaves the stash like he panicked at the magic items that were in the room.
The same is true of the importance of calling the boss, but I was afraid that if I stayed inside the stash room, I was going to reach out to the detours.
The feeling is the same for the other adventurers, and eventually everyone leaves the room without anyone saying.
And in a few minutes or so...
"A pile of magic items. Hey.... I guess you've been using your power as a Marchelle family all over again"
Bosque sighs... and then two of Ray and Elaine come too, trying to follow him.
Note that as far as the two Vihelas and Büne are concerned, for the moment, they were already home today.
Vihera would have taken the inn herself if it had been, but given what happened today, it would have been better to stay with Bühne overnight or so, so she made a promise to head to the Silva family tomorrow to go to the Flaut family mansion together.
Note that Vihera and Buune took them to the Golden Wind Pavilion, meaning that they would just get in the way when it came to Seto and Yello and even if they were in the Marchelle family in the present situation.
"This... again, that's a huge number"
Magic items decorated in the room ranged from weapons such as long swords, daggers and spears, to protective equipment such as shields, armor, or accessories such as bracelets and foot rings - but not a single item with gems on it - as well as potions, watches, mirrors, books, cups, cards, candlesticks, lanterns, carpets, feather pens, and stone plates, among many others.
And...
……
In one of them, Ray is completely out of sight.
What was there was a case of metal, and some of its open cases contained two crystal balls of about 10 cm in diameter that looked familiar somewhere.
Ray soon found out what it was. Anyway, I have one myself, and I came to Exile, which is also a labyrinth city, looking for this magic item in the first place.
pair of orbs.
There are some parts of the orb decoration that differ from what Ray has, but that was definitely a magic item that I could talk to my distant opponents about.
I never thought I'd find it here, not in the dungeon.
Looking at the opposite orb with such thoughts, I guess I eventually noticed such a ray. Elaine speaks up about the magic items in the stash room with the boss.
"Ray? Was there something that bothered you?
"... oh. I've got something pretty good."
Elaine tracked Ray's gaze when she heard the word... I guess she understood what it was. Eyes open to surprise.
"This... Could it have been us looking for?
"Probably. I didn't think it was in a place like this."
"... I see"
If you're having a conversation like that, now Bosque interrupts the conversation.
"Hey, what's going on?...... hmm? Is that a magic item or something?
"That's right. The reason we came to Exile was because we were looking for magic items that would allow us to have a conversation even out of hand."
"In a remote place...?
Bosque, who was thinking of something for a few seconds after hearing Ray's words, eventually smiles at its mouth.
Bosque, with a grin that should be described in one way or another as a nigga, turns that gaze towards Elaine and whispers in a whisper so that the adventurers outside the hidden room can't hear her.
"Hmm, I see. I thought it had some purpose... but it was for a very feminine reason."
"... what are you trying to say?
voice a few steps lower than the usual Elaine's mouth.
Having seriously decided from this any longer that the jointed sword on its left hip could be pulled out, Bosque hurriedly shook his neck to the side.
I fully understood how powerful that connecting sword would be in the fight against the oliqueur. Even if I fight, I'd rather have a 20% chance of winning. The speed of transformation because you judge it that way objectively.
"No, no, it's nothing. It's nothing.... Oh, so the reward I'm giving you for this one is that magic item, okay?
Elaine's movement stops perfectly in Bosque's words and her mouth opens after a few seconds of silence.
"What are you saying? This mansion belongs to the Marstells. You're looking into all kinds of suspicions right now, but that doesn't mean you can wear them on your own."
"Sure, this magic item or something would belong to the Marchelle family, but it's definitely going to be crushed more than it has caused so much noise so far. Then, naturally, we'll be in charge here... and most importantly, the majority of the magic items here probably include stolen goods and stuff"
While whining, Bosc lifts the lantern that was nearby and strokes its surface.
"It's almost impossible to find out whose it belongs. Perhaps it will be turned to the operating expenses of Exil in the auction category. Then it's not that weird to buy it from me and give it to you as a thank you."
"... right"
For Ray, it was surprising that Elaine admitted to Bosque's remarks.
I just thought it was embezzlement.
But there is hardly anyone, including this Exil, who harbors the land, the people and the city without any dark means behind it. Everyone is dyeing their hands more or less.
In the first place, cloudiness and swallowing in this world called Elgin was a pre common sense problem as a nobleman.
Just as most organisms cannot live in lakes that are just beautiful.
(Well, I heard before that you have a connection to the tissue behind you. Is it conscientious to just pay Ning Ro money)
Ray, convinced, turns his gaze to Elaine as to what to do.
Of course, Ray would have welcomed a magic item for the call here.
Even if the dungeon tells me that the magic item in this hand is asleep, I have to question it if I can get it for sure.
"Okay, then I'll take it."
As Elaine, I guess I came to the same conclusion as Ray. Nod small at the boss.
"Well, I'm sorry, but come to my mansion tomorrow. I'll give it to you again then. I'd like to give it to you on this occasion if I can, but there's something like procedure for once. And we need to find out how much to buy."
"... can you do that today and tomorrow?
Unexpectedly asked Ray, Bosque nodded with a small shoulder clasp.
"Sure, it would take some time if it were normal, but who do you think I am? Before that happens, we have to settle this matter a little quickly and report it to the state. Especially about Holy Light. It's not just about Eggzil."
"Indeed."
Ray snorts unintentionally at Bosque's words.
Holy Light is not a religion born in Exile. It was preached by someone sent by Holy Light.
It was necessary to exercise some control as a country more than its existence had actually been confirmed even in the territory of the Duke of Kelevel.
(In that sense, unlike Japan, it's convenient not to have freedom of worship or anything like that.)
Whimpering inside, the door to the hidden room is inadvertently knocked.
"What's up?
The person who knocked also quickly tells Bosk what to do through the door, returning the words immediately.
"Dear Bosque, I have a blood relative from the Marchelle family..."
"What happened?
"Well, I told you to get out of the Marchelle house mansion."
"... what?
I guess the word was unexpected. Unexpectedly inquiring bosk.
Even for Ray and Elaine, who were listening next door, she leans her neck all the time when she suffers from understanding.
Given what the Marstells have been up to, it's only a bad idea that if you're going to get out poorly, you're still going to get out high pressure.
(Or didn't know anything about what Prix was doing? That's why I couldn't stand the fact that there are Silva people in the Marchelle mansion or something)
I whine inside and decide it might be surprising.
Anyway, whatever Prix was doing, it's all deadly if someone else finds out. Speaking of which in my own body, did I bother to tell you... it was Ray's decision that it was no.
Or apart from the story if that Marchelle family blood relative was cooperating with a crime that Prix was committing, I don't think Ray can imitate that kind of person who would come and yell to get out of the mansion early.
"By the way, is it okay with Bosc that you called that blood relative?
"Hmm? Oh. Perhaps the Marchelles will be destroyed, but we'll have to keep the Marchelles alive once and for all until that's decided. I know you don't know anything, but I need you to be prepared."
To Ray's words, Bosque tells him as he scratches his head looking troublesome.
But Elaine, who was listening to it, opens her mouth with some surprised look.
"I hear about the Prix blood relatives when they used to come to this mansion. It's a relative's child drawing blood far away, isn't it?
"To be precise, it is the father of that relative who is coming. I also obeyed Puri's orders to make my children the masters of the Marchelle family in the future without ever approaching this mansion, no matter what happens when Puri is alive... No, can't I involve you any more? I'm gonna have to deal with them over there, but what are you guys gonna do?
"I don't want to get involved that way. I'm going to look around at the kind of evidence that would come out of this mansion a little bit more.... Is that okay with Ray, too?
"Oh."
Thus, the three people out of the hidden room will be divided into two hands: Bosc, Elaine and Ray.
