The Golden Knight Ben Karsa arrived in Danton City at 10 a.m. with the loot left behind by the thief.
He wore dazzling mithril armor and effortlessly carried several bulging hemp sacks in one hand.
As soon as he entered the city dressed like this, he was stopped by the city guards.
The guard said cautiously, "Please cooperate with us to register, Your Excellency."
Ben Karsa nodded good-naturedly.
He whispered to his beloved horse, "Wait here for me, I'll be right out."
The horse nuzzled against Karsa affectionately, then trotted off to a patch of greenery to pluck clumps.
The guards led the golden knight to a small cell next to the city gate.
A mid-level knight was sitting in the cell.
Because this is Denton.
Therefore, it's unlikely that anyone would be blind enough to cause trouble here.
Over time, taking turns guarding the city became a leisurely job.
When Karsa walked in, the mid-level knight on duty was savoring a pound of hill tea that cost 31 silver coins.
"Pfft—" The knight on duty spat out his drink.
"Cough cough cough!"
Hello!
Karsa was very understanding. "It's alright. What do you need me to do?"
There are many important figures coming and going in Denton City. "You just need to register here."
Upon seeing the suspicious sack of marijuana, the on-duty real estate agent cautiously asked:
"What are these? Would you mind telling me?"
Karsa then briefly recounted what had happened in the territory the previous night.
Upon hearing this, the mid-level knight immediately said, "This involves a series of burglaries in the city!"
"We caught one of their accomplices last night."
"The remaining people are being interrogated."
"The information you provided is so useful!"
"Would it be convenient for you to come to the police station to cooperate with our further investigation, sir knight of justice?"
Karsa readily agreed, "Sure. I also have a notice here; could you please post it on the city's bulletin board for me?"
The knight on duty said, "May I take a look?"
Karsa took out the written notice and handed it to the knight on duty.
"Please look."
After the knight finished reading it quickly, his expression turned very strange.
I want to laugh but I don't dare to.
"...Okay, we'll post it as soon as possible."
Soon enough, the city guards arrived at the bulletin board with hammers and nails.
With a "Duang," the hammer slammed down, and the long nail pinned the new notice directly onto the bulletin board.
Soon, the city's residents gathered around.
Among the crowd was a man with a limp, wearing a drab gray cloak.
It was none other than Kaka, the thief who had been thoroughly ravaged by the giant pumpkin outside Emerald Valley last night.
To be fair, he was lucky; he was flung into the canopy of a large, lush tree.
Although he had to endure the leg pain while getting down...
There was nothing they could do, so the pumpkin vine wrapped around his thigh and swung him around.
His left leg has taken on so much strain that it now has difficulty walking.
Kaka read the new notice word by word:
The 'Nameless' Thief:
I'm sorry the pumpkins in my territory accidentally hurt you.
A guy behind Kaka also saw this and burst out laughing:
"Hahaha! That's hilarious! Are there still newbies getting beaten up by pumpkins these days??"
"If your food is this bad, you should just stay home and eat your milk! What kind of life are you living off of!"
Kaka's face turned a tomato red with anger.
He couldn't hold back any longer, "Is that just a regular pumpkin?!"
"That's the fucking Demon Pumpkin Lord!"
"Have you ever seen what a Demon Pumpkin Lord looks like?!"
"You're the newbie! You've never even seen this before!"
Silence fell over the surroundings as everyone stared at Kaka.
The man asked suspiciously, "How do you know so much?"
"Are you that thief?"
Kaka's face went from red to white, then turned purple. "Bullshit! I was just passing by!"
The man spat, "Pah, why are you getting so worked up?"
Kaka saw that the guy had a muscular build, so he didn't dare to say anything and continued reading the announcement.
Then came the man's hearty laughter from behind, "Hahahaha! I can't laugh myself to death!"
"Look how incompetent this thief is!"
The people around burst into laughter, some even laughing so hard that tears streamed down their faces.
"Damn it, no wonder the dog was barking so loudly last night."
"Good heavens, it's those thieves who've been committing crimes lately!"
"Hahaha! This bunch of thieves got beaten up by a pumpkin!"
"I'm dying of laughter! A pumpkin?! Hahaha!"
Kaka's temples were bulging with veins.
He said it! He is the evil, the devil, the great, lord of Nan Gua!
The man, whose stomach hurt from laughing, continued reciting his interesting stories.
"The lord of Emerald Valley is even willing to treat the wounds of this thief who was 'hit' by a pumpkin?"
"I'm dying of laughter! This thief is so weak, even the lord pities him, hahaha!"
"They also said that the valuables left behind by the thief have been sent to the police station."
"Thieves or victims of theft can go to the police station to claim their stolen goods."
"Hahaha! This lord of Emerald Valley is hilarious!"
"Haha, I'm tempted to visit Emerald Valley!"
"Hey, it's not far anyway, let's go together, maybe we can make it back in time for dinner."
The onlookers dispersed.
Kakara pulled down his hood, his eyes burning with fury.
"Emerald Valley! I will never forgive you!!!"
We'll see!
