Funinna, please let me steal your heart!

[*This painting will be featured in an art exhibition organized by the Gabriel Chamber of Commerce.*]

[Item Rarity: A]

[Fixed points: 300]

One is an oil painting, and there's another one.

Tears of a Young Girl

[Information: This is a crystal-clear, aquamarine gemstone. Although solid, it still gives the impression of flowing life... Upon closer inspection, it's as if one can hear a young girl crying. Is it a gemstone, or amber?]

*This item will be featured in an art exhibition organized by the Gabriel Merchant Guild.*

[Item Rarity: B]

[Fixed points: 250]

The Cabrière Chamber of Commerce.

Luna stood up and went to the board covered with a lot of information.

Although she is no longer one of "them" and now operates as an adventurer, she still maintains the habit of gathering information.

She touched her chin and pondered, "The art exhibition is in a week, isn't it...?"

The Gabriel Chamber of Commerce is an ally of the Rose Society and received considerable support from the Rose Society from its inception.

If she were to steal these two items, she would very likely run into the Rose Society.

His gaze moved and settled on a picture.

"The current president of the Rose Society is Navia Casapa... She's a difficult person, but since there's an opportunity to seize two treasures at once, there's no reason not to take it."

However, there's something strange about the Gabriel Merchant Guild, especially their whereabouts...

The clues were insufficient. Luna shook her head, deciding to leave the matter for the time being.

Now that the goal has been decided, all that's left is to prepare for the action.

2: Announcement of the announcement

Unfortunately, the newbie gift pack for this system only provides skill points that can be used once per skill tree.

In other words, she has to prepare everything herself, including the phantom thief costume, weapons, and mask.

"Phantom Thief's Outfit..."

Luna instantly pictured an "ordinary" high school boy who could summon Personas.

However, this system has a "glamour" mechanism.

If we consider it rationally, the Phantom Thief outfit also falls within the scope of the "glamour" rating.

While the phantom thief outfit worn by a certain male high school student was undeniably cool, Luna shook her head slightly in dismay. She preferred a phantom thief outfit that combined white and gold.

But she's not really good at designing and making clothes.

Luna sighed. "At least send some clothes, really..."

Why don't we ask her friend for help?

If it's an old friend of hers, they can definitely meet all her needs.

But this is a phantom thief's outfit. If she designed it, she would know at a glance that the phantom thief jumping around is Luna herself.

It's definitely better to do it yourself.

"Referring to the design of the guard unit, using white gold... plus some decorations like shawls, that should do it..." Luna pondered, sketching out a rough draft on paper.

"This weapon will do."

She drew her sword.

Although it's called a sword, it's actually just an ordinary one-handed sword.

It's the kind of stuff that's everywhere in a blacksmith's shop, so it won't be detected.

The other one is a pistol.

Although it's called a pistol, it's actually a small musket unique to Fontainebleau. Not many people in Fontainebleau use muskets these days, but she obtained this one through special channels.

The small gun is not very accurate and its bullet velocity is also a bit slow, but it is sufficient as a secondary weapon.

Who wouldn't love to fire a shot in return and then rush in for a kidney kill?

Of course, besides these, as a phantom thief, she also needs some odds and ends, but she hasn't been an adventurer for so many years for nothing.

The timeframe is one week.

Luna muttered, "I still need to scout the location."

You need to thoroughly understand the layout of the exhibition venue to maximize your chances of escaping.

"Right, we need to add the skills first."

Since there are free skill points, there's no reason not to use them.

Skill trees are divided into the following categories:

The Path of Brilliance: A series of flashy attack skills, primarily elemental attacks such as "Flame Cloak" and "Lightning Snap".

Path of Shadows: A series of support skills related to stealing, such as "Steal" and "Thief's Vision".

The Way of the Hunt: A series of attack skills related to martial arts, such as "Mastery of All Martial Arts".

The Way of Knowledge: A series of auxiliary skills related to life professions, recipes, treasure appraisal, etc., such as "acting" and "pistol forging".

The free skill points allow you to level up each skill by 1 level.

First comes the path of splendor.

Elemental abilities... Luna pondered for a moment. She had used the Evil Eye before and thought that using elemental power directly and using the Evil Eye should feel about the same.

And if we're talking about what suits her best, it would be the element of wind.

It can be attacked or escaped.

"It's you!"

[Has learned "Wind Blast Kick"]

【Wind Blast Kick (LV: 1/3): Gathers wind element in the foot to unleash a powerful kick. Can knock back enemies and also enhances the user's leg strength, allowing for faster jumps and runs.】

Next is the Path of Shadows.

There's no need to hesitate about this; just max out the most basic ones first.

[Has already learned to "steal"]

[Theft (LV: 1/5): Allows you to steal one item from a target from 1 meter away.]

Then comes the way of the hunt.

In terms of martial arts skills, Luna isn't particularly outstanding.

Her swordsmanship, spearmanship, and physical skills are already quite good; low-level martial arts skills can only enhance her abilities rather than bring about a qualitative change.

Considering the level of glamour, perhaps something flashy and extravagant is the best choice.

[Has learned "Sword Dance"]

【Sword Dance (LV: 1/3): It's less martial arts and more a dance! The swordsmanship, as elegant as a dance, also contains deadly moves, beautifully taking the enemy's head—that is the essence of this skill】

Choosing the path of broad knowledge is difficult.

If the above all serve her as a "phantom thief," then the Way of Knowledge serves her more as a "non-phantom thief."

Cooking skills, singing, appraisal, etc...

To be honest, she hadn't decided what to choose. After much deliberation, Luna decided to leave it for the time being.

Anyway, skill points won't run away.

It's not too late to talk about it after the initial operation is completed.

"Phew...that's good enough. I should start making the clothes now, and I also need to prepare the masks."

After six days of immersing themselves in preparations...

Luna looked with satisfaction at the exhibition layout diagram on the board and the phantom thief costume on the mannequin next to her.

In fact, if this dress were shown to her friend, it would probably be covered up with a bunch of flaws and criticized for at least half an hour.

But she's not Spider-Man, and her suit design is ingenious.

It's already quite good to be able to achieve something that's "not bad".

Luna sighed, "Making clothes is really not easy."

My brain is about to explode.

"Now there's just one last step."

That is the crucial pre-announcement!

Unfortunately, she also lacked experience in designing announcement letters, but as long as the main content is clearly explained, it should be fine.

As Luna pondered, she picked up her pen and wrote:

“Cabrie Merchant Guild, I will accept your beautiful gem—the Maiden's Tear.”

The signature is "Phantom Thief White Cat".

Luna picked up the card, feeling that it was still lacking something, but it was enough.

While she was scouting the location, she had already figured out how to send out the announcement letter and get it into the hands of the other party's chairman.

As for why she only wrote down "Tears of a Maiden" as a treasure, it's because she had something she wanted to test.

"If my target is A, but I also steal B, what will the outcome be..." Luna muttered with interest.

After a while.
