Wizard, I Have Another World

Chapter 70 Robbery

Feeling the gold coins in his pocket, Kerry turned left and right along the alley, finally arriving at the back door of a house.

"squeak……"

The door was unlocked.

Pushing open the door, a pungent smell of alcohol hit me.

Carey frowned and stepped inside, the wooden floorboards creaking laboriously beneath his feet.

The people inside remained calm in the face of his arrival, merely glancing at him casually before continuing to laugh and drink with their glasses.

"Kun!"

Carey walked straight up to one of them and asked in a low voice:

Where is Maggie?

"Don't rush." ​​Kun, dressed like a street thug, raised his droopy eyes and waved at him.

Did you bring the money?

"..." Kai's face tightened, suppressing his anger, and he took out the gold coins from his pocket and threw them violently onto the table.

"Gurgle..."

Golden coins rolled back and forth on the table.

"My lovely little beauty, you're always so charming." Kun picked up a gold coin, his eyes glazed over, and licked it back and forth with his tongue, completely disregarding the dirt that clung to it.

"I love you more than anything!"

"but……"

With a flick of his finger, the gold coin soared high into the air before settling back into his palm. He toyed with the coin while glancing sideways at Kerry, a strange expression on his face.

"Obviously, some people don't think so, and are willing to pay any price for their first love."

"Where's Maggie?" Carey, who had been waiting impatiently, clenched her fists and asked loudly:

"I've given you the money you promised. Now it's your turn to hand Maggie over to me as agreed."

"What an admirable, devoted lover." Kun shook his head.

"pity!"

"It took far too long to raise the money, and your beloved Maggie has already been taken away by someone else."

"What did you say?" Kai's expression changed drastically. He stepped forward, grabbed Kun by the collar, and roared:

"Say it again!"

His actions also angered several people in the room.

"What are you doing?"

"Are you looking for trouble?"

"Put Kun down!"

"..."

The men inside put down their drinks and started shouting. One of them even grabbed an iron bar and looked at Kaili.

They seemed poised to take direct action if they didn't let go soon.

"Don't get excited."

Kun, on the other hand, remained as jovial as ever, patted Kairi on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"The person is just being taken away; it's not like they can't be brought back. It's just that the price will definitely not be the original price."

"You want more money?" Kai's muscles twitched, and the anger in his eyes could kill.

The other party has raised the price several times.

He agreed every time.

but,

Every time I pay the full amount, I face another price increase, like an abyss that can never be filled!

"That's normal." Kun shrugged.

"I can't bring someone back from someone else for the original price, otherwise why would they hand over the person?"

"Tell me where Maggie is," Kerry said, grabbing the gold coins from the table.

"I'll go find her myself!"

"Tsk tsk..." Kun shook his head and clicked his tongue lightly.

"This is our trade secret and cannot be leaked. Of course, it's not impossible if you pay enough."

As he spoke, he tossed the gold coins in his hand.

"you!"

Kerry gritted his teeth, then nodded resentfully:

"good!"

"It seems you're determined to extort me. In that case, I don't necessarily have to follow your procedure."

"Hmm?" Kun raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

"What are you planning to do?"

He remained relaxed and showed no sign of panic.

He knew Kerry's situation well; he was a timid and cowardly person with a mediocre background.

Once it's in your hands, there's no chance of turning the tables!

"I told you so," a strange voice said calmly in the room.

"Just come to me with this kind of thing. Although my price is a bit high, I'm not like some people who don't keep their word."

"Thump!"

The floor trembled slightly.

A tall, slender figure fell from the roof beam, a wide cloak fluttering behind him.

When did he come in?

Nobody knew!

The man, with a long sword much longer than ordinary weapons hanging from his waist, bowed to Kerry with one hand placed in front of his chest.

"Taro Sword - Daigo, I am at your service."

"I want to know where they took Maggie," Kai said grimly.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Daigo."

As he spoke, he tossed the gold coins in his hand to the other person.

"As long as there's money, everything's negotiable, especially since I still owe you a favor." Da Wu took the gold coins, his eyes narrowing into slits, and turned to look at Kun and the others:

"Are you all planning to speak now, or...?"

"Whoosh!"

With a flick of his wrist, a long, narrow, and sharp sword appeared in his palm, its blade gleaming with a cold, icy light.

"We'll talk after I defeat you?"

Kun's expression darkened. After exchanging glances with the people in the room, he slowly picked up the weapon that was at hand beside him.

"superior!"

"Let's get started!"

"when……"

The scene was filled with flashing blades and afterimages.

After a while.

A mercenary named Daigo placed one foot on Kun's back and slashed a bloody gash across Kun's neck with his long sword.

"Speak!"

Where is the person my employer is looking for?

Carey blinked, watching this scene with disbelief.

He never imagined that the drunkard he had met at the tavern a while ago who owed him money was actually a knight.

A true knight!

The cold blade sliced ​​through the skin, slowly approaching the depths of the throat, and Kun was terrified, his face turning deathly pale.

"Foster!"

"Bray Foster!"

"The person you want is in his hands!"

Bray Foster?

Kelly's expression darkened. This was the youngest son of the Foster family. Most of the businesses in the city were related to their family, and it was rumored that they also secretly ran a brothel business.

brothel?

Thinking of this, Kerry felt a sudden panic.

Now, when Carl goes to the police station, besides handling the job, he just hands over his work and chats with his colleagues.

There is no specific job.

I'll sit there for a while in the morning, flip through some books, and then leave in the afternoon under some pretext.

His colleagues all knew he was about to leave, and they pretended not to notice his "absence from duty," since being a sheriff was essentially a sinecure.

Fragments of the Divine Realm.

He took out a beast pill and swallowed it, feeling the vitality of life within his body. Karl practiced the Great Strength Breathing Technique while cultivating the Guardian Ring.

The benefits of high-quality beast pills to a knight's training allowed him to gallop forward again on his slowed-down knightly path.

With a whole box of high-quality beast pills, there's no need to worry about cultivation progress in the short term.

"I want to walk the path of a wizard. My progress in witchcraft is slow, but the path of a knight is becoming increasingly smooth."

"This makes absolutely no sense!"

"However, the ultimate goal of a knight is merely to become a legendary knight, while becoming a formal wizard is simply the beginning."

"Oh……"

Karl chuckled:

"I'm just a knight now, yet I look down on even legends. Aren't I afraid of getting my teeth knocked out?"

panel!

Name: Carl

Physical condition: 2.36

Mental Power: 2.01

Source quality: 0

Occupation: Knight, Intermediate Wizard Apprentice

Progress is slow!

Shaking his head, Karl expressionlessly waved away the data panel and walked towards the desk next to him.

Next is study time.

wizard,

The key is accumulation!

Creating enchanted items is both difficult and easy.

Without suitable magical materials, it would be extremely difficult to create magical effects using ordinary items.

Only those with a deep understanding of various disciplines and strong hands-on skills can make it.

Such beings are extremely rare.

So it is.

Enchanted items are extremely rare, mostly products from long ago, and are rarely accessible to ordinary wizard apprentices.

but,

If you have magical materials with certain unique properties, it is much easier to craft enchanted items.

Even the organs of some magical creatures are themselves demonized objects.

Like the feathers of a phoenix, which can be used to perform fire magic; the skin of an invisible crocodile, which can be sewn into an invisibility cloak...

"Naturally enchanted items are extremely rare, mostly growing on legendary creatures, powerful beings that even formal wizards dare not touch. I can forget about it now."

"However, common witchcraft materials are readily available in Free Port, which should be enough for me to try crafting them myself."

Karl picked up the Phantom Fish Trident from the side, lost in thought.

Although he wasn't optimistic about the weapon's power, he was very interested in its ability to change size at will.

exactly.

After a fierce battle with Hal of the Black City Command, his broadsword will have to be forged again.

If the ability of the Illusionary Fish Trident to change size could be added to it...

Want to refine weapons

Hammers, tongs, forges, anvils, and other essential items are required.

"money!"

Whether it's practicing weapon forging or learning about enchanted items, money is indispensable.

After packing his things, Karl left the Divine Realm Fragment and headed towards the market.

It was nearly evening.

The streets were sparsely populated.

Karl was dressed in a long black robe, with a hood covering his face, and a sword from Hal hung at his waist.

A genuine, high-quality sword.

After a fierce battle, his broadsword was covered in wounds, but after a little polishing, it still looked brand new.

…………

Three pearls the size of quail eggs, a crystal pendant, and a necklace of plump, round pearls.

Gehry couldn't bear to put it down, examining it repeatedly.

"nice one!"

He muttered to himself:

"These are all rare and valuable items; even important figures in the capital would surely appreciate them."

"As expected of you, sir, every time you present something of exceptional quality."

"Seventy gold coins." Karl, seated in a soft chair, his body hidden in the shadows, spoke slowly:

"For just seventy gold coins, they're yours."

"Seventy?" Gary paused, then shook his head.

"It's not expensive, it really isn't expensive."

He looked troubled as he spoke:

"The customer's request isn't high, and I like it very much, but the shop doesn't have that many gold coins at the moment."

"oh!"

Carl sat up straight:

"It seems I've come at the wrong time."

"Please wait a moment, sir." Seeing that he was about to leave, Gai Li's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly reached out to stop him.

"I'll have someone go get the money nearby. They'll be back soon, so don't worry, it won't delay your business."

As he spoke, he turned around and gave a wink to the shop assistant:

"Go quickly!"

"Tell the young master that a distinguished guest has arrived, and the goods he is consigning are worth seventy gold coins."

"Yes."

The maid nodded and hurried towards the door.

"Excuse me."

Gary turned around, rubbing his hands together, and said:

"Please wait a moment, sir."

perturbed!

disturbed!

Is this because they're worried the deal won't go through?

Beneath the hood, Karl slightly raised his head, his scrutinizing gaze falling on the other person, and slowly spoke:

"I'm in a hurry."

"Yes." Gary's forehead was sweating.

"There are fifty gold coins left in the shop. I'll take them out for you first. Please accept this money."

Fifty gold coins, stacked in ten rows, their golden luster captivating all who behold them.

Karl touched the gold coins and was no longer in a hurry.

time flies.

"Not here yet?"

Karl, who had been feigning sleep with his eyes closed, opened them, his face showing displeasure.

"Here he comes, here he comes." Gary hurriedly stood up and went to greet them outside the shop, taking the gold coins from the maid's hands.

"Guest, your payment is due."

"Um."

Carl nodded, and after confirming that everything was correct, he opened his money bag, swept the gold coins into it, and walked out of the shop carrying the heavy gold coins.

Only after his figure disappeared from sight did Gary reach out and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"I've done this before, so why am I so nervous when I'm with him?"

"Especially when their gaze falls on me, they tense up, as if they're being stared at by some wild beast."

He shook his head and asked:

"Is everything arranged?"

"It's all arranged." The maid's eyes were cold.

"This person is sneaking around and doesn't dare to show his face, yet he always brings valuable items with him every time he comes. He must have acquired them through shady means."

"This time, he demanded seventy gold coins at once, so Young Master Bray certainly won't let him off easily."

"Hmm." Gary nodded.

"You watch the shop, I'll go deliver the items to the young master."

"Yes."

A maid should be.

……

After leaving the market, Karl habitually wandered around the neighborhood.

Just as he was about to return to the fragments of the divine realm, he suddenly stopped, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.

wrong!

His robust physique gave him exceptional perception.

The Giant Spirit Breathing Technique even includes a method specifically designed to temporarily enhance the five senses.

Sensing something was wrong, he immediately activated his magic technique, his ears trembled slightly, and the faint footsteps behind him gradually became clearer.

"Is someone following us?"

"At least three people!"

With a slight frown, Karl quickened his pace and ran towards the edge of the city, with those behind him also accelerating.

really!

It was definitely aimed at me.

Not long after.

The footsteps behind suddenly quickened, and a person circled around to the front, blocking their way in a narrow alley.

"hey-hey……"

The man blocking his path was short and stocky, holding a dagger in each hand, and looked at him with a cold smile:

"Kid, hand over everything you have."

"You knew I had something on me?" Karl asked slowly.

"Was it Gary who notified you?"

"Who cares who notified them?" Two men had caught up from behind, one of whom was dressed like a wandering samurai.

He pointed his sword at Karl:

"Hand over your belongings obediently and come with us, or you'll be in big trouble."

"Heh..." Karl chuckled, his figure suddenly lunging forward.

Gale Sword Technique!

Combat Technique - Gale Slash!

Several afterimages appeared out of thin air, instantly enveloping the short, stocky robber.

Such brutal swordsmanship caused the bandit facing its blade to change color drastically, and he couldn't help but let out a wail:

"Help me!"

"A knight's squire?"

The wandering samurai's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly pushed off the ground, thrusting his longsword swiftly towards Karl's back.

Combat Technique - Thrust!

This is a martial art that leans towards explosive power; the blade cuts through the air and even emits a faint sword whistle.

Even if you're wearing armor, it can still be pierced if the quality isn't good enough.

"bite……"

A collision sound rang out.

Karl swiftly and effortlessly killed the short, stocky robber in front of him with a single sword stroke, then turned to block the thrust.

It's like waving a straw.

The powerful destructive force of the combat technique failed to elicit the slightest reaction.

wrong!

The wandering samurai's eyes widened:

"knight!"

"Run!"

How dare he attempt to rob a knight?

That's practically suicide!

Before he could finish speaking and react, the longsword in his hand was easily knocked away by Karl, and the next moment his head flew off his body.

Before the last remaining man could even make a move, he saw his two companions die one after another, let out a wail, and turned to flee.

"Spare me..."

"puff!"

Karl stepped forward, pierced the heart of the last man with his sword, and slowly pulled it out, looking towards the pawnshop he had just left.

After a moment's thought, he disappeared from the spot.

soon.

The maid that Gary had previously called knelt down on the ground, her legs trembling, her clothes soaked with cold sweat.

Where did Gary go?

Carl stood before him and asked slowly:

"explain."

The maid trembled and said hurriedly:

"It's not my fault. Uncle Gary asked me to do it. He... he went to see Young Master Bray."

"Bray?" Karl's eyes flickered slightly.

"Bray Foster?"

"Yes."

"puff!"

The longsword sliced ​​through the void.

The lamplight flickered, and the figure on the wall suddenly split in two, the two bodies slowly falling to the ground.
