Episode 775 The True Evil Group (8)
I heard from Levia that Gabo’s whereabouts are in this backyard.
If that’s the case, you’re just digging the ground and looking for whatever comes out.
While sweating at night, not when the nobles were enjoying a banquet, they poured the items they had gathered into one.
Patter-!
It looks really messy, probably because it was submerged in the ground for a long time.
After wiping the sweat with her soiled hands, Nur’ah stepped over and asked.
“I never thought there would be so many buried there. Now what are you going to do with all this?”
“I will identify.”
Can you tell them all apart?
Ray smiled and said, “Don’t worry,” as if he had noticed Nura’s intentions.
“I won’t make you work anymore, so take a break. Oh, you can’t touch that.”
support position-!
Startled by the weak current flowing from his hand, the merchant dropped the item.
“A magic tool?”
“Even after all these years, it seems that there is still some mana left. You don’t know what kind of magic there is, so you don’t know if you accidentally touch it and get hurt.”
At his words, the merchants hurriedly ran away.
If there is one thing more important than money, it is health and life.
Touching a magic tool you don’t even know about is as dangerous as playing with a mine.
Looking at the merchants who seemed to refuse to work even if they paid more money, Ray spread his seat as if it was rather good.
“Now, who would be holding the treasure?”
Gently brushed off the dirt on the magic tools.
Then, strangely shaped statues gradually appeared.
“This is...”
It seems like something is hidden.
Before she could even talk behind her back, Ray threw the statue back.
“This sucks.”
“Wait a minute! It was something that anyone could see had a story, right?”
“After shaking off the soil, the reaction weakened. It must have been buried with mud attached to it to be used as a trap from the beginning.”
“...”
He said so, but what can he do?
Still, you never know.
Nura picked up the discarded statue and looked around.
Standing proudly with arms folded like a monarch of a country.
His eyes were as vivid as if they were still alive.
‘It’s ridiculous that art like this is simply used for traps.’
There must be a great device hiding somewhere.
Like revealing a key in the moonlight, or revealing a hidden entity shining like a stone in the water!
I will definitely find it and press down on that confident nose.
It’s a punishment for making a lady shovel late at night!
Nurua, thinking that inwardly, jumped up and looked at the moonlight, and uttered a starter phrase to turn the surroundings into a sea of water.
Ray, who was watching from the side, clicked his tongue.
“They put on a show.”
“Let’s see! The mystery of this child must be real!”
“If you want to play with dolls, go far away and play instead of standing around.”
Hiss.
He waved the back of his hand as if chasing away a white ball on the street.
The moment Nura infused demonic energy into the statue, saying that she would show her true self.
Ray, who had been dying all this time, suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her.
“ah.”
“Shield.”
Whoops-!
The statue exploded, scattering fragments.
The explosive power wasn’t that great, but if I had been hit by shrapnel while holding it in my hand, it would have been a real big deal.
Hiccup-!
Seeing her dumbfounded like a surprised rabbit, Ray brushed off her clothes.
“Sheesh. I feel like I just made a fool of myself.”
Maybe there are more things buried in the ground.
However, even if you dig all day, there is no point in doing more because you cannot see the end.
In the end, Ray, who had been struggling all along, lay down in desperation.
The night sky is also very pretty.
As Ray looked up at the star-studded sky as if someone had painted it, he suddenly had an idea.
‘wait. The memorization stuck in the wooden chest earlier... Wasn’t it strange?’
I half-raised myself and looked at the box again.
It sure did look weird.
If you usually put memorization in a box, it is common to make it orderly so that the area is widened as much as possible.
However, I feel that this is roughly nailed down to the point where it looks sloppy.
“It looks like some kind of pattern.”
I straightened my posture and checked my neck.
It’s not like it’s poisoned, is it?
I touched the box here and there, being careful with my needles, and I noticed a structure I hadn’t known before.
A subtle gap between the cover and the body.
At first, I thought it was formed naturally over time, but looking back now, it was subtly overlapping.
If this is a natural seam, it must be the skill of an excellent craftsman.
Open the gap carefully.
Took-!
The cover of the wooden box was completely separated with the sound of something breaking.
A single wooden board was shattered into pieces, revealing a small green stone.
Woo-woo-!
Before he had time to appreciate its splendid figure, the green stone that shone in the moonlight embraced mana.
“Huh?”
This feeling is not good.
The mana contained in the theme of a stone the size of a finger is beyond imagination.
If you do something wrong, you will be swept away by the mana storm.
The moment Ray urgently tried to release the green stone from his hand.
Piing-!
Quaaaaaa-!
Mana like a waterfall spewed out in a straight line towards the sky.
“Aww!”
In response, Ray also raised mana to counteract.
Now it is no longer possible to place green stones.
Now that unstable mana runaway has occurred, what I have in my hand is not a jewel, but a bomb that can blow up a village with a smile.
To say it was simply a magic stone, the aftermath was huge because the mana he had was superior.
I could tell just by looking at the sky that was supposed to be dark, brightening like daylight.
As the clouds parted and created a grand spectacle, all the nobles enjoying the banquet looked at the starting point of the light.
A cluster of lights shooting high into the sky.
The phenomena beyond common sense aroused people’s admiration.
“haha. How beautiful it is.”
“You care so much. It’s the first time I’ve had a banquet like this in my life. ha ha ha.”
Naturally, the nobles were only thinking about the banquet as an eye candy.
Without even dreaming that someone from below was supporting it.
Ray screamed inwardly.
‘Aagh! I’m going to die!’
What kind of madman made such a magic tool!
No, how did he put this much mana into a small green stone in the first place!
After swearing dozens of times, Ray focused his mind not to disturb his posture.
If you accidentally fall over, the count’s mansion next to you will disappear in an instant.
Even the atmospheric mana was mobilized to support the magical tool, and the posture became more stable than before.
But that was it.
It is still impossible to move even one step from where you are standing, so you can only handle the mana while whimpering.
I hope someone will come soon.
Now I had no choice but to grit my teeth and endure it.
