"What should I report from..."

"There's a lot going on!

After dinner, Barlow and Behre came for a report, alternating.

That your neighbors have invited you to tea parties many times.

That a well-known merchant visited to have something made in the name of Jen.

Noteworthy among them is the fact that Her Majesty the Empress of Imperial Shouro said, 'Jin, are you still not back?' That's what I came to hear (three days after that, the World Conference was held).

"And, yes, there was an interesting incident."

"Incident?"

"Yes. He said two men were tied up naked and abandoned before a guard stuffing to protect the town of Loizato. If you look into it, they say he was a notorious two-man thief."

"Heh..."

Nodding all the way, Jen thought that the last case would definitely involve Old Man.

So, after I pulled him up to the living room, I asked him on the Magnetic Communicator (Manacam) and he gave me the answer I thought he would.

"Yes, your husband (My Road). I decided at the World Conference that it was not enough to annoy your busy husband (My Road) and refrained from reporting. Shouldn't I have? '

"No, that's good. Let me talk to you now."

"Okay."

Hereinafter, it is summarised and reconstituted by Old Master.

Late at night.

There were two figures approaching the 'Mansion'.

"Aniki, is this the mansion?

"That's right. From what I hear, he's an emerging nobleman, and he tends to be away. I know by listening that you're still away tonight."

"Only deacons and samurai, you mean?

"That's right. Aim for it."

The two were thieves on sale recently.

But the brainchild of Penglai Island, who monitors this' mansion ', Old Man, had detected the two of them a long time ago and had listened to most of that conversation.

("Hmm. You're a thief with considerable arms. It's easy to get helpless and catch, but shall we see a little more for later school ')

"(The walls are expensive, but not insurmountable. Let's go)"

"(oops)"

The two threw the clawed rope up against the claw first, making sure the tip was hooked, and when they told it and did so, they began to climb.

('Sure, it's a rented mansion, so you don't have a bond around the fence. Did they poke you there')

The two men, who overcame the fence in a mild motion, jumped without making any noise on the lawn when they made sure there was no one in the garden.

"(Okay, so far so good. I'm gonna go around to the side)"

There was an emergency exit next to the mansion, and they went there.

"(Right here, right here. Sev, please)"

"(Leave it to me)"

The man, called Seb, accompanied the keyhole section of the door with a palm.

"'Separation'"

("Oh, my God, is it engineering magic? Sure, then you can split the key itself ')

Old man is impressed.

("Previously, the ancient relics (artifacts) of the Shawlo Empire. A giant golem also used engineering magic to attack, and it sounds like you should add some ways to defend against magic")

I don't even know your thoughts like that, two people entering the mansion.

"(Look, the painting that hung on that wall. Whose portrait is it, but it's going to be gold?)"

"(But it's too big to take home)"

"(Right. But you can still expect treasure from this one)"

I know you're going to be talking in a whisper like only the two of you can hear me, but the surveillance device set up by "Mansion"... the performance of "Magic Eye" and "Magic Eye" outperforms that of a human being.

Without even knowing that the old man was watching their actions, they slowly proceeded inside the 'Mansion'.

"(This is the living room. I don't even think it's a big deal, do you want to take a peek?)"

The two stepped into the living room on the south side of the ground floor.

Before those two, a black shadow stands in the way.

"Hih!"

"(Fool, don't speak up. figurine)"

"(Oh, I'm surprised...)"

What was in front of them was a figurine of a knight in armor. It's mostly in noble houses.

But this is not a figurine. In times of need, it is a golem that can be moved out and against the crooked.

('You're still early to catch me. Shall we observe a little more ways?')

"(We're going to the guest room. There's got to be something more gold-eyed over there)"

"(Is it upstairs? Are you all right?

"(With your engineering magic and my physical skills, I can handle most of this)"

We exchanged such conversations in a low voice, and the two of them passed Barlow and Baele to the sleeping room and headed to the stairs.

"(Stairs flutter)"

"(It's convenient because the footsteps don't sound)"

And the two of them reach upstairs.

"(Uh, which one is it?

One is Jen and Elsa's bedroom and bedroom.

"(Must have been western)"

They were the two people who would go towards the lost frying phrase, the wrong person, that is, Jen and Elsa's living room.

('Well, it's still good. Rather, because he came to the heavily guarded')

Naturally, it's Jens' living room, so there's more than three times as much security as the rest of the room.

"(... how about this room?

It is not locked.

Gently open the door and take a peek inside. It's dark.

"(Hey, it's the light)"

"(Okay. …" Lights ")"

Sev that lights up the blur and the extent to which you can see the surroundings.

"(er...?

I walked in the door, but it was about a meter square in size and just like the front door, and the floor was about 50 centimeters taller ahead.

"(Interesting room)"

It's a room with raised floors and tatami layers so you can put the digs down, but two thieves can't possibly tell.

"(But there's nothing dizzy about it, is there?

"(Right. Take a peek at the next room)"

The decision was correct. If he had tried to ride on the tatami with his earthfoot, he would have been paralyzed without question and the bones of his feet would have been crushed.

The next time they peeked in was Elsa's living room.

This one, the bedroom is just tatami, and the living room can normally walk in shoes.

"(... don't smell good)"

"(Aniki, wasn't this the guest room?

"(Apparently so. Looks like this is my mistress's room. and that means there are golden-eyed things like dresses and accessories)"

The decision is correct. However, since the majority of these materials are Penglai materials, it is doubtful whether they can be valued on the black market.

("Immediate execution if you get your hands on Elsa's, right?")

Thinking about the noise, Old Man kept the two of you observing.

"(Oh, that smells good. Perfume?)"

The identity of the smell is the leftover incense of Elsa's favorite citran-based aromatic candle.

From the skin of the citron, the fragrance oil ingredient was extracted in "Extraction" and mixed with beeswax.

I also use the engineering magic "add (ad)" and "homogenize (homogenize)" to mix beeswax and citran fragrance oil, so it wasn't something I could put out in public with a snack.

In fact, I often use similar aromatic herbs, but Jen doesn't know that far, so I use the actual citran skin, so the volatility was slightly scarce.

Therefore, the fragrance remains long.... It's been over a month since I last used Aroma Candle, so much so that the intruder notices its scent.

This means that the prototype's aromatic candles are only used in Elsa's room.

"(You smell good about noble women)"

Two people are pinpointing Elsa's living room, with the feeling that if I make one mistake, they're going to think it's perverse.

So far, no hands, just observation, though.

('Is it about time? If Elsa's room is contaminated, she will be scolded by her husband (My Lord). … "Paralysis")

"(This one looks like a bedroom. I might have valuables... Huh?

"(I'd like to see him once in a noble woman's bedroom...?

That thought. Finally, the two thieves quietly lost consciousness.

'... and that's why. All the places they went through were deodorized, cleaned up, sterilized.

Old man, your report is over.

"I see. So, the stunned thief naked and wrapped it around, and left it in front of the guard stuffing," he said.

"Yes, of course, the memories that snuck into the Mansion were erased in Forced Forgotten (Amnesia)"

"Huh?"

"I snuck into your husband's room and Elsa's room, which is a natural procedure."

"As, well, fine. Thank you very much."

'And then I've sucked up their' knowledge of thieves' too, so I'd like to help guard them from now on '

He was a proud old man.
