Chapter 92 Mask

Part 2

『Library (Knowledge Warehouse) 』.

It isn’t a name of a Relic, but a generic name for Relics with a certain characteristic.

Eva takes a deep breath and her body trembles. She seems a little more excited than usual.

Her usual calm voice is slightly in a higher tone.

“It is depending on the content but Cry-san, your debt may disappear. I was wondering of it was your usual illness but this...”

Sytry also said it but illness, illness... Isn’t it too mean?

So, among all the Relics, do you know what is the most expensive Relic that are ever traded?

A holy sword which can break a mountain or cut the sea in one swing?

A bracelet which allows you to freely fly around when you equip it?

A magic bag which allows you to store a castle like an item?

Wrong.

The lot which was knocked down at the highest bid price in history and perhaps the most famous Relic... Is a certain book type Relic.

『Book of Sand』.

A Relic that was named from the color of its cover... It was a picture book summarizing all the types of Relic that existed in the age of Highly Advance Magic Technologic Civilization.

It was probably something that was created at the peak of their civilization. The book didn’t have any special ability, but it had enough information on it to change your common sense.

Most of the Relics found in Shrines is from one of the huge civilization that has once existed, it is a product from the Highly Advance Magic Technologic Civilization in which mankind prospered with mass-produced magic tool with diverse and powerful effect. And that book reveals the power of more than fifty percent of the unknown Relics that had been discovered until then.

“... Have you ever saw me buying a Relic for the purpose of reselling it?”

I have bought some at a high price from resellers, but I have never sold one.

I didn’t realize it was a 『Library (Knowledge Warehouse) 』, so it isn’t the place for me to proudly say it but I... Am a Relic Collector.

I can’t use it, so I will sell it at a high price. If I sell a rare Relic for that reason, then I am disqualified as a collector.

Eva eyes become round and argues in a panic.

“... It is beyond the reach of a single individual. It is certainly valuable, but I think it is for Cry-san’s good to take all the information possible and let it go...”

“This is why it is a secret for both of us, only me and Eva.”

“I think it would also be known by Ark and the people around Gladys-kyo...”

Indeed, éclair-jou knows that the mask can speak and has a high degree of intelligence.

If her eyes aren’t blind like me then it isn’t strange if she finds out that the mask is a 『Library (Knowledge Warehouse) 』.

I can probably seal Ark’s mouth. He is a man with little desire for material thing or honor, he is the perfect book model of a Treasure Hunter.

I have been thinking for a while but in the end, I decide to leave it to heaven and my luck as usual. It isn’t like I am doing anything wrong, so it will be fine one way or another.

“...... Weell, it will be fine, surely. For the time being, please send a get-well cake to éclair-jou. It is the candy and the whip strategy. Don’t forget the candles”

“...... Understood. ...... Even though it was a change to pay back your debt...”

Eva agrees while feeling a little dissatisfied.

I am sorry for all the inconvenience I am causing.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

This part reminds me of The Simpson S25E15. The Van Houtten sued Homer and Marge because they bought a famous painting from them without both party knowing it, to know who own the right to have the painting.

Seriously why are you obsess with candle? Did something happen to you before because you forgot to put candle? XD

Tchao à plus!
