Chris's Faith of Fire

This thing was originally posted by the person who lost his wallet, and we were responsible for executing it and benefiting from it.Most of the work of the thieves organization is such tasks that cannot be released directly in the guild, or they take the initiative to go to the upper level.If the nobles' things were stolen, they would be sold directly for money. This organization was maintained through theft and had more or less exchanges with various industries in the city.

The operators of prostitution houses, the blacksmiths on the corner streets, and even some nobles who oppose the current rule.

The forces of darkness have already penetrated Anatolia's blood and are planning to change his color every moment.

But for Anatolia, who was already trapped in a whirlpool of serious conflicts, this would be a good way, wouldn't it?

The sky was gradually whitening, and I listened to the intermittent calls of birds flying by outside the window.

The security group is hostile to us... but they have done nothing wrong.

From a legal perspective, they are righteous.

On the contrary, according to the words of the thieves organization, only those who can change this dark world can be called justice.

Chijiu sneered at this.

"What we do is not that noble. Those people exchange valuable things for money and gradually accumulate wealth and gain control over the city. They think they can do better than those nobles, but what is the truth? I'm afraid Only Nefera knows.”

I always feel that she has hidden qualities that are completely different from others.

When I came back to my senses, the chirping of the birds had become more numerous and louder. Without noticing, the rising sun had already risen in the eastern sky, and the new light passed through the window and stimulated my eyes.

Even though it's dawn, there are still annoying times.

Chapter 86 86. Fire Cat Chrissy——3

"You're moving too slowly."

"Ha...ha. Sorry, I can't keep up with my physical strength."

I gasped in response to Akagi. Just as she said, my movements were not as agile as hers.

But I also discovered her irrationality.

"Haah...ha... Generally speaking, can people have such good physical abilities?"

"what you mean?"

"You can run for a moment without taking a breath, and you can easily jump over several walls!"

Even though my sister and Noelle can do this kind of thing easily, I always thought it was the talent of the strong.The physical abilities are naturally different from those of ordinary people.

"You're too lacking in exercise."

"exercise?"

"Yes, try to gradually integrate the Mana into the body. Well... the average thief doesn't understand this, but I think the principle is probably like this."

"Incorporate Mana into your body? Use magic?"

I saw Miss Akari waving her fingers in denial.

"No, that's the way wizards fight, not ours... They borrow Mana through the door, and then release it in one breath. Of course, there will be certain rules and types. This is magic. But we are different …What do you think is the difference?”

I was suddenly asked to answer. According to the theory in the famous magic introductory book "The Elements" that I have just read, Mana is not only the energy of magic, but also one of the basic elements that maintain the activity of all things.

Legend has it that Nefera sacrificed her body to produce Mana, so the creatures themselves absorb the nutrients from the land and carry Mana. The land with powerful Mana will produce powerful creatures, and underground cities will be formed where too many powerful creatures live. , complete Mana circulation system.

But not everyone has a lot of Mana in their body.

It is said that the soldiers of the empire are unexpectedly powerful, which is probably related to the Dalvasa pit in the south that is connected to the Demon Realm.

But at the same time, the human body cannot bear too much magic load, except for the brave...

By saying this, Miss Akabato does not mean Mana itself, but integrating Mana into the body to increase physical strength.

"There's a key difference between releasing mana for attack and storing it throughout the body for enhanced abilities."

"Bingo~ As the cat said, although you have a lot of mana, you are considered to be talented among ordinary people, but it is very subtle. I can feel it... you are probably not qualified as a magician. Yes."

"It's...it's exactly what you said."

It's been a long time since someone poked my wound, and I almost forgot about my original incompetence.

His magic attributes are only suitable for illusions, and he's only half-assed with swords.

"But that doesn't mean you're useless."

Her hand touched my cheek.

"I told you, you are talented...not just a thief, haha, it seems too early to say this now."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Don't worry, let's go back to the topic. For untrained people, Mana is concentrated in a special place for storing Mana containers in the body. It has not been known after many dissections. It is probably something that cannot be seen by the naked eye. .Although the specific location is not clear, according to studies by scholars, most people believe that it exists in the heart."

Subconsciously swallowing his saliva, why would this person use such seductive gestures towards people of the same sex!And I am obviously a girl. Why do I still have feelings?That's not the point, be sure to calm down!

"Yes, but teacher... what should we do to spread the mana to all parts of the body to strengthen our physical strength?"

"Good question, there are two key points. The first is to consume Mana as much as possible every day... Mana can be recovered every day, so it can be activated by using it as much as possible, but if it is released all the time, it will have no effect. Usually Exercising the body can also cause mana to flow throughout the body, but the efficiency is very low. It would take decades to become first-rate with that kind of exercise?"

"Decades!"

"That's right, so it's difficult for most people to become stronger in their lifetime, but there are shortcuts."

Her right hand gradually left my cheek and brushed my silver bangs that were about to fall behind my ears.

"Magic used on oneself..."

"what."

My sister's holy magic, Noelle's wind magic... So that's it.

"However, I don't know this kind of magic. I don't have the adaptability of magic attributes to strengthen myself. I don't know how to..."

"No, there is a kind of magic that is more suitable than you think."

"So I said I won't be advanced...well."

She put a finger to my lips and swallowed the rest of her sentence.

"——It's an illusion."

◆ ◇

Hiding in the crowd, sniping at their belongings and seizing them in an instant.

Even a moment's hesitation will lead to discovery.

So I bided my time.

When the target in front and the pedestrian behind him crossed each other, he stretched his hand slightly, but the rapid movement was extremely small, and did not attract anyone's attention. He decisively took the money bag and continued forward.

If people are slightly aware of being stolen, they will often look back subconsciously...

And I had already fled.

"Little thief! What are you doing? Where is my wallet!"

"Ah? What nonsense are you talking about...are you crazy?"

"Son of a bitch!"

There was a noisy sound behind the sound, and it felt like a fight was starting.

Although I really want to watch it, I can't look back.

I'm afraid I'll laugh out loud and expose myself...

Silently, he turned left at the corner ahead and entered a dark alley.Unlike elsewhere, there are no homeless people staying overnight.

There were wooden boxes and sacks piled up everywhere, and it looked like it was just a corner for storing sundries.

The color of her hair, which had been changed by genjutsu, returned to silver again.

"A convenient spell indeed."

I walked deeper, and there was a wooden box inside that looked relatively new. When I pushed it open, I could see the code disk inside. Turn it three times clockwise and four times counterclockwise to open the secret door.After walking in, a wave of moisture hit me.

Miss Akaba was waiting at the door for a long time. When I jumped down, she spread her hands and caught me in a princess hug.

"I can go by myself..."

"Kitten, don't be too pushy."

I'm not trying to be brave. I feel very uncomfortable being held by such a sexy beauty. Even as a woman, I can't always look directly at her.

So I fluttered my legs and made a fuss in protest.

"Put me down! Put me down~"

"Hey! Stop making trouble! Ah..."

As a result, Miss Akari loosened her grip and landed on the stone ground with a bang.

It hurts my butt a little, but it's better than being held all the time.

"pain……"

"It's not because you're fooling around, but this time it's much faster than before. Do you think you can stand alone?"

It has been several days since I received the guidance. Ms. Akabato asked me to make better use of illusions. Unlike other magics, illusions generally do not rely on the power of the door, so not only can the mana in the body be consumed every day to activate the mana, It can also be covered anywhere on the body, and finally the mana will remain in the muscles and bones... to strengthen the body.

Use illusions when you have time, it will make you grow rapidly.

It does feel like my movements are a little sharper, but this is probably not the result of being strengthened.It's more like my mentality has changed due to the accumulation of experience.

But even so...

"To be honest I don't want to steal anymore."

As I said that, I handed the money bag I just bought to Chijiu. Without even looking at it, she took out two bright silver coins and threw them to me.

"This guy is a businessman who makes money by selling slaves. Today he plans to go to the slave market to receive goods, so he brought a lot of cash..."

"Can a slave be saved because of what I am?"

"No, they will just be sold to other merchants."

"Then why should I do such a thing!"

Chijiu turned around and did not answer immediately. She just continued to walk forward... There was no need for a signal to follow.

I walked behind her and crossed the ditch in the middle of the road. There was a bridge made of thick wooden boards in front of me. After walking through it, I came to the path leading to the center. The Wasp was sitting on a barrel in the center waiting as usual. Our arrival.

"It seems successful?"

"Yes, it was better than expected. It only took half a moment for the kitten to complete it, and this time there was no suspicion at all."

In the past few days, Red Dove and Wasp will be very partial to me when reporting, but they are very strict before taking action.

Every combat plan, route and even method must be planned in advance. Once discovered, it will be a dead end, so I am also very cautious.Akagi taught me many techniques, and I feel that my body has become much lighter after her guidance.

"Then let's do this for now. I will give you more important tasks later."

Wasp replied casually, then waved his hand for us to step back.

He felt different today than usual, but for some reason I didn't point it out right then and there.

I firmly believe that this is not my illusion.

After bending down and bowing, Chijiu and I returned to the hotel in silence. It was common sense among thieves not to talk too much on the way.

It wasn't until I sat on the hard wooden bed that Chijiu slowly spoke.

"What did you want to say just now?"

Sure enough, she noticed that this kind of sensitivity was far superior to anyone in the thieves organization.

"The Wasp is worried, and the other thieves are not here. He must be worried about something. The organization must have encountered something difficult during this time."

In the past, he was not so silent and rarely talked, and a few sarcastic words had become a daily routine. However, it was different today. Wasp looked extremely tired.For him who has been sitting still and calm, this state is very bad.

In the past few days of getting along, I have gradually discovered the characteristics of everyone in the organization.

Although Wasp is the leader, he is also the leader of the team. This team is divided into 5 groups, each group has about 10 people. I have never seen them appear at the same time. They basically work separately. This is also our action of a criterion.

Not happening at the same time also reduces risk and increases efficiency…

But there was indeed only Wasp just now.

"The security group has become more and more aggressive recently."

"furious?"
