After mastering the resurrection technique, they begged me to extend their lives.

The last period was spent in a busy and stressful atmosphere.

Princess Airi's body was carefully removed, and the coffin was secured with ropes, making it so that it could be carried on one's back.

He then took off some of his valuables and handed them to An Xiao.

The Wind Sword Maiden explained, "Although my magic ring has an imprint, I can integrate the imprint into your aura."

The space here isn't large; it can't hold a coffin, but the owner can selectively store other items, such as scrolls and potions.

"it is good."

An Xiao looked at the incredibly precious spatial ring that she handed over, her heart filled with complex emotions.

This thing is very expensive to make, and its rarity is guaranteed to be at least blue-quality. Even though it only has a few cubic meters of space, it is extremely precious to someone like me who is just starting out in the early stages of development.

I will keep your sword safe for you.

After she taught An Xiao how to use the ring, An Xiao tried to put the sword into the ring.

The object was successfully stored silently.

Followed by.

They picked up the coffin and carried it on their backs.

I experienced its actual weight.

Generally speaking, every object has weight, and once the weight exceeds what one can bear, one cannot carry it away.

In this other world, there is also the concept of "burden".

The weight inside the ring can be disregarded; only the ring itself needs to be considered.

However, everything you wear, carry on your back, hold in your hand, or put in your pocket needs to have its weight calculated.

As a sorcerer, An Xiao naturally couldn't have the same carrying capacity as a knight, so Xinuo's Wind Lightness spell perfectly solved the problem he faced.

"The duration will be about a month, and the weight will be reduced by 75%. The material of this coffin is not heavy to begin with, so with my magic, the master should be able to carry it away easily."

Hino added at the end, "Oh right, I'm not heavy either."

"I know."

An Xiao didn't say anything more, but simply carried Princess Airi back onto the bed.

When it was almost time, Xinuo took a step back to the center of the coffin and closed her eyes.

"Close the lid, Master."

Why won't you let me look at you?

"Because the moment of death is not beautiful. I'd rather... be quiet."

She insisted on avoiding it.

An Xiao respected her request.

Close the lid.

Kerala...

Physical strength is depleted, and vision is blurred.

The five senses are disappearing.

Just like in the beginning.

The Sword Maiden has returned to the starting point.

-

……

An Xiao remained silent, her expression sinister.

He sat beside the four corpses.

Naturally, I was in a bad mood.

The Creator's understanding and obedience were beyond my expectations.

However, the time for Wind Sword Princess has come, and the coffin can only hold one person. This makes the resurrection "operation" of Princess Airi imminent, otherwise her beautiful body will decay under the erosion of the air.

Unfortunately, the amount of mana in her body was still insufficient.

Not only is it not enough, but there are no better ways to respond.

Except for sleeping.

Okay, now, militia captain Chris, and his cousin, are also dead here.

The entrance to the cellar was not sealed.

Once the other militia members realize that their captain has disappeared, there is a high probability that they will come to search for him.

Given that the excavator was already damaged, if they did not relocate, they would face being wiped out, captured, and skinned alive in the capital.

Even in another world, An Xiao didn't want to experience that kind of pain.

and so.

"We need to find a way to solve all the problems."

"Calm down, I need to calm down."

Although time was tight, An Xiao understood that she still needed to think even in this state.

"Let me think about it."

He muttered to himself, suppressing his discomfort, and looked at Chris, who had been shot in the head.

The ice gun had long since melted, and blood mixed with white fluid flowed in a pool, carrying a strange smell that reached my nostrils.

An Xiao frowned and began to ponder.

"As the militia captain, if you intend to take all the wanted reward and go all out, what do you need to prepare before coming here?"

He pondered it.

"If it were me, I would consider winning the battle first."

"So bring all your belongings to ensure everything goes smoothly."

"Secondly, after the victory, we must ensure that the hostages are safely brought to the capital to receive the reward, and not intercepted by anyone."

"Everyone knows that the reward on the wanted poster is enough for these militiamen to work for a lifetime without eating or drinking, and they still wouldn't be able to spend it all even if they lived a life of luxury."

Therefore, the "safety net" becomes the most crucial element.

"Yes."

An Xiao's eyes lit up.

Thoughts came to mind—

"You must get rid of the other militia and avoid being detected by the royal city's pursuit team. I imagine you're carrying something else besides weapons."

He quickly got up and went to the bodies of Chris and Dick.

They decided to search their belongings first, rather than repair the cellar door lock that had been damaged by the crowbar.

Sure enough, when An Xiao opened the militia captain's pocket and pulled out one item after another from his breastplate, she immediately understood why circumstances wouldn't drive a person to their death.

—"Captain's Certificate", the identity certificate of the militia captain of Ningye Town. With this certificate, he can collect his salary at the counter of any bank in the Empire on a regular basis, which is 60 silver deer per month.

—The "City Gate Key" can open the tall wooden gate on the main north-south road of Ningye Town, as well as the only hidden door at the bottom of the tall wooden railing.

—"Letter from the Prostitute on 3rd Street," "Chris, you promised last time you'd find a way to redeem me, was that true? But 80 gold dragons isn't a small sum... You only have 17 gold coins left for me... Also, I don't know how much that heirloom is worth... But don't worry, I've stopped taking orders recently, I'm waiting for you. I hope you can keep your promise and take me away soon."

"..."

In An Xiao's eyes.

This is equivalent to a bankbook, an alternative escape route, and an unknown treasure (to be claimed).

Since he dared to set a trap to kill me, I will definitely take the so-called "family heirloom" that he had previously stored with the prostitute, should I have the chance in the future.

An Xiao has always been a vengeful person.

Avenging every wrong must be done.

If there's stock, I'll take it.

Of course, you can also strip Chris of his green-quality breastplate, search his pockets for all the gold coins—4 gold, 2 silver, and 75 copper—and finally, use an appraisal spell to examine the spirit sword his cousin had dropped on the ground.

[Spirit Slayer Blade +5, crafted from the blacksmith's shop in the island nation of Pegasus. A samurai sword with random enchantments; current effect is Sharpness (Basic Armor Penetration/Amplify Damage).]

"very good."

Because he had just killed the militia captain with a magic scroll, he had absorbed almost all of the experience points without reservation.

This means that he killed Chris, who was around LV25, with his LV1 combat power, achieving a kill above his level and accumulating experience.

The sudden surge in experience points unlocked a very useful new eye technique – 'Creative Gaze'.

With this, we can perform basic appraisals on many items in the future, whether they are weapons or living beings.

Of course, to obtain more information, you need to upgrade your combat power level.

"Combat power rank is the attribute that others can see about me, but creation rank is the core of my magic system. As long as I continue to refine my regeneration spell, my combat power will definitely break through the limit one day."

"After all, the targets killed by my creations all have some experience with me."

"Um."

He picked up the spirit sword, put away the spear, slung the coffin over his shoulder, and donned the spirit armor.

Roll up the sleeping princess Airi in a fairly clean blanket.

Gently pick her up.

Finally, standing in front of the dilapidated ancient mirror in the cellar, I looked at my blurry reflection in the dusty, half-covered lens.

The hood concealed his handsome face, and a dark and cold aura inexplicably emanated from him.

This moment.

An Xiao finally felt that she had some of the characteristics of a divine descendant.

……
