On Sunday, July 7th, 777, in the world of Himlear, a rural noble family welcomed their seventh child—a seemingly ordinary girl who, from birth, appeared to have an indissoluble bond with the numb...
As he gave the order, many sounds suddenly rang out from the forest behind him.
"Hahaha, after waiting for so long, I can finally have a good time!"
"I've been tired of staying in this forest for a long time. Once I make this fortune, I'm going to live out my days in the city for a few months!"
"Hey~! There seem to be quite a few women in this caravan..."
"Huh? You dare to take advantage of the merchandise?!"
"I'm sorry, Third Master! Ah——!"
"I'm going to teach you a lesson, so you'll remember it! Second brother, stop dawdling and let's go!"
“Here I come!”
The second leader of the thieves responded with a smile, and raised his foot to prepare to join the other thieves in action.
"Wait a minute!"
The middle-aged woman grabbed him.
"Where's my son? Shouldn't you return him to me now?"
The second leader of the thieves looked at the middle-aged woman impatiently.
"Oh~, I almost forgot about you——"
Bang!
He raised his foot, kicked the middle-aged woman out, and then brushed the dust off his feet.
"You're no longer useful!"
"My son, give my son back to me."
The middle-aged woman clutched her chest and pleaded.
"Ah? Your son? Let me think, oh, I remember! Your son~, we sold him on the first day~! Now he must have been used as a sacrifice by some evil organization~?"
“——!!?”
The words of the second leader of the thieves made the middle-aged woman feel as if she had fallen into an icy abyss, and she was filled with despair.
"Hahaha! Guys, let's go and grab the spoils—!"
The thieves left, leaving the middle-aged woman lying alone in the forest.
... ...
Convoy camp.
"Hahaha! They're all ours—!"
The thieves who rushed out of the forest were very excited when they saw the "unprotected" camp in front of them.
"Brothers, grab the money!"
Without waiting for the two leaders to speak, the thieves who could no longer hold back rushed in.
“Here it comes—!”
The adventurers who had ambushed in advance hid in the dark, watching the thieves rushing in, either gripping their weapons tightly or chanting spells.
"Listen to my command, 1——! 2——! 3——! Go——!!!"
Boom! Boom! Boom...
In an instant, numerous explosions were heard in the camp, and brilliant lights of magic bloomed everywhere.
"kill--!!!"
A large number of armed men hiding in the dark rushed out and fought with the thieves on the spot. Some of the people who had fallen to the ground suddenly "resurrected" at this moment, picked up the weapons around them, and gave the nearby thieves a fatal blow.
The thieves had no idea what was happening and were completely caught off guard. They were thrown into complete chaos and could only be defeated one-sidedly by the adventurers and caravan members.
"Damn it! That damn woman actually dared to lie to us--!!!"
The second leader of the thieves was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.
"Stop cursing, second brother, let's run!"
The third leader of the thieves, seeing that the situation was not good, immediately wanted to take his second brother and run away.
However,
"You can't escape—!"
The caravan and adventurers had set up such elaborate traps that they had no chance of escaping.
Looking at the several adventurers blocking the way.
"Damn it! Don't look down on me!"
The second leader of the thieves drew his sword angrily and slashed at Alec and his men.
Bang--!
A burly figure suddenly appeared in front of him. The other party just swung his huge two-handed heavy sword, and the second thief leader was knocked far away like a ball. After falling to the ground and rolling for a few times, he became motionless.
After doing all this, Bart's cold gaze moved to the remaining three thieves.
"Alas--!?"
The third leader of the thieves shuddered with fear, threw his weapon away neatly, then raised his hands above his head and knelt down.
"Surrender! I surrender—!"
... ...
"Flame Arrow!"
boom!
"ah--!"
After knocking down a thief with a flaming arrow, Hulim looked around the camp. Although the battle had not started long, the thieves' resistance had basically stopped.
However, Hulim felt something was wrong.
She glanced at the third leader of the thieves, who was being tied up with ropes by Steen, looking dejected.
She saw the thieves rushing into the camp. It was obvious that there were two leaders, and this man was one of them. However, what he shouted when he escaped was very worrying.
Second brother...
If this second brother was what she thought thieves called him—
So where is the thief's boss?
Hulim raised her head and slowly moved her gaze across the entire forest.
Suddenly, she saw something flashing at a high point in the distance...
"Mr. Alec!"
... ...
"Damn it! These rubbish!"
On a mountain near the valley, the leader of the bandits was holding a telescope and observing the situation in the camp below.
Seeing his men fall into the trap so easily and then be swept away like a falling leaf, he was directly furious.
The thieves who followed him exchanged glances with each other hesitantly. Finally, one of them said with a stiff upper lip, "Boss, what should we do now?"
"What should I do? What else can I do?!"
