I am not a returner Episode 330

Treasure Hunt (9)

[Analyzing unique magic power patterns. Please wait a moment.]

Golden Castle.

The entrance to the golden treasure trove, where the treasures Deimos had collected so far were stored, was tightly locked with a huge iron door.

There are three doors you have to pass through to get inside.

Each door was protected by dozens of layers of barriers, and his knights stood guard 24 hours a day, making it a place not even a rat could pass through. This was the ‘Golden Treasury’.

The first door guarding a treasure trove of gold.

There was a demon standing in front of a door that was impossible to enter unless you were a member of the security guard.

[The identity of ‘Orcal Del’, a member of the Golden Knight Guard, has been confirmed.]

“Glory be to the gold.”

A gruff-looking demon called Orcal saluted with a sharp gesture toward the iron gate.

Sigh.

The tightly closed iron door opened.

“Ah, are you here, Commander Orcal?”

“Glory be to the gold!”

As he entered, the two Mines standing guard saluted him.

“I’m sorry I’m late.”

Orcal nodded slightly towards the guards.

“The captain is waiting inside.”

“I understand.”

I turned and went into the security office.

Sitting inside was a man with a handsome face and a handsome mustache.

“You’re 10 minutes late for your shift.”

“sorry.”

Orcal bowed politely towards the guard captain.

The guard captain looked back at Orkal and spoke softly.

“I don’t mean to criticize you for being late. “I’m just curious as to why you were late, even though you usually came 20 minutes before your shift.”

“That’s…”

Orcal’s voice trembled.

The guard captain continued speaking with a low sigh.

“Is it because of the jackal?”

“….”

Orcal silently avoided the guard captain’s gaze.

“You said you were attacked by an old ghost?”

“…yes.”

“If you’re going to chase him, you’d better stop.”

The guard captain stood up and approached Orcal, who was standing silently.

“Isn’t our role to protect Deimos’ report?”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“okay.”

The guard captain breathes a sigh of relief.

Rather than worrying about Orcal, it seemed like he was worried about the impact his accident would have on him.

The guard captain took his coat and went out.

“If anything happens, please contact me.”

“Glory be to the gold!”

After bowing curtly toward the guard captain’s back, Orcal took off the sword from his waist and sat down in his office chair.

“….” He

sat down in the chair and looked over the handover report with heavy eyes. He put the sword that was standing next to the table back on his belt and stood up.

After all, it was more certain to see it with your own eyes rather than receiving the handover through a report.

As he went out of the office, two Mines from the security team followed behind him.

“Is there anything special?”

“yes! doesn’t exist!”

Orcal nodded heavily and took out a sacred stone with a complex magic engraved on it from his chest.

“I will go on patrol. “Follow me.”

“Glory be to the gold!”

He took the Holy Youseok out of his chest and placed it in front of the huge door.

Grrrrrrrgh!

The Seongyu-seok and the door resonated, and the second door guarding the treasury opened.

Orcal entered the door and looked at the third door, which was firmly locked.

With his authority, he can only enter through the second door.

In order to open the third door, the holy oil stone carried by the guard captain was needed.

“egg plant.”

“yep!”

Of course, there was no need to open the third door to patrol.

Orcal walked down the long hallway with two guards to check if there was anything wrong.

“…hmm?”

While walking down the hallway, Orcal’s steps suddenly stopped.

“What’s going on?”

The security guard following behind tilted his head.

Orcal silently scanned the floor and walls of the hallway with his hands.

“…It’s humid.”

A faint moisture felt on the fingertips.

Originally, Deimos’ territory, where the gold refining factory was located, was full of moisture even though it was underground and never rained.

The ‘Golden Treasury’, where Deimos’ treasures were stored, was an exception.

“Do you mean moisture?”

“Look here.”

“Ah…”

The security guard’s expression turned pale as he touched the wall to check for moisture.

Due to the nature of the treasury, which contained countless treasures, moisture was like a poison that should never be present.

“It looks like there’s a problem with the humidity control system.”

“I’ll contact the captain right away!”

One security guard quickly ran outside.

“I guess I’ll have to call the facility manager.”

Orcal frowned and walked to the office.

I urgently tried to contact the facility manager at the main headquarters through the communication relic, but for some reason I was unable to get in touch.

“Hmm.”

A low sigh came out.

“The manager isn’t responding.”

“I will go directly to the workshop!”

“no.”

The role of the guards is not only to guard the gold treasure trove, but also to maintain the treasures stored within in the best condition.

The management facilities had to be brought back to normal as quickly as possible.

“Who is the executive who is good at controlling relics?”

“I heard that Aktur has outstanding skills.”

“If it’s Aktur…”

“I’m an executive who manages the gold refinery.”

I’ve heard it before.

Did you say that it was Arctur who designed the factory’s facilities?

“I will contact Acutur right away!”

“I will do it myself.”

Executive-level mines were often arrogant.

It would be difficult to talk properly unless it was from the same executive.

“Glory be to the gold. “I am the commander of the Orcal unit of the security forces.”

Orcal sent a message to Ahktur.

-Oh yes. Woe be glory to gold.

Aktur’s voice was heard through the communication relic.

‘hmm?’

Orcal frowned at the sound of his voice sounding like he was scared of something.

I wanted to ask what was going on, but I didn’t have the time right now.

“Bogo’s management facility is broken. “Can you come and take a look in person?”

-All right.

Aktur readily accepted the offer without even asking why he was being called and not the facility manager.

“…Do you understand?”

I was momentarily taken aback by such a willing acceptance.

-yes. I’ll go right there.

“Oh yeah. All right.”

As a person asking for help, it was impossible to question why the request was accepted so easily.

After completing the communication, I put down the relic.

“The humidity management device is broken?”

The office door opened and the security chief came in.

“yes. “I checked it while patrolling.”

“I’m sure when I checked, it wasn’t like that…”

The guard captain trailed off and bit his lip with a nervous expression.

Seeing him sweating profusely and avoiding eye contact, it was not difficult to notice that the guard captain had not been patrolling properly.

“It looked like the device had just broken down.”

“Isn’t that right?”

“yes.”

“haha. okay! “There was definitely nothing wrong when I checked!”

The guard captain patted Orcal’s shoulder with a look of relief.

“So did you call the manager now?”

“I couldn’t contact you, so I called in another executive who is skilled in adjusting relics.”

“Another executive?”

Orcal nodded and told the captain that he had summoned Aktur.

“Hmm. Arctur… can he really fix the device?”

“They say they built the factory facilities themselves, so I think it will be possible.”

They also built complex gold refining factory facilities, so there was no way they couldn’t fix a relic with a simple humidity-maintaining function.

“And even if a problem arises…”

it could have been put on the fault of the facility manager and Arctur, who had not been contacted.

“Hehehe. “I see.”

The guard captain nodded and turned around.

“Captain! Im here!”

Arctur quickly arrived at the golden treasure trove, as if waiting for contact.

“Glory be to the gold.”

Aktur salutes with a very intimidated expression.

The guard captain approached Arctur with his signature warm smile.

“Oh, thank you for coming. “I told you to trust that you could fix it and leave it to me, right?”

“As far as telling you to believe and get hit….”

“Haha! There is no need to be humble! “You can do it!”

The guard captain subtly passed the blame to Aktur and patted him on the back.

“The humidity management relic is inside. “I can open the door, but a guard will come in for security reasons.”

“yes? “You’re going in with the guards?”

Arctur shook his head with a puzzled expression.

“Oh no. “It’s not a complicated matter anyway, so I’ll go in alone and fix it and come out soon.”

“Hmm. That might be a bit difficult. “Is there a reason why I have to go in alone?”

“It’s not like that.”

Cold sweat formed on Aktur’s forehead.

“All right. “I’ll go in with you.”

“haha. “Thank you for understanding.”

The guard captain took Aktur and headed to the third door.

He took out the holy oil stone from his chest and held it close to the door━

“Wait a moment!”

Orcal’s urgent voice echoed through the hallway.

“Why but you?”

“….”

An ominous feeling runs down my spine.

Intuition, not logic, was warning me.

Interest must not be allowed in here.

Orcal kept his mouth shut and glared at Ahkhtur, who was terrified.

“…eight.”

“eight?”

“What happened to that arm?”

Orcal, who was watching Ahktur closely, approached him and roughly grabbed his forearm.

“Aaaah!”

A scream of pain burst from Ahktur’s mouth.

“What are you doing!”

“We treated it urgently, but this is clearly evidence of a broken arm.”

“what?”

Orkal tore off Ahkhtur’s clothes, exposing his arms.

Abnormally swollen forearm.

It was a wound that was visible when the broken arm had just regenerated.

“Why did you break your arm?”

“That’s it.”

In response to Orcal’s sharp interrogation, Arctur took a step back with a pale, tired face.

“There was an accident…”

“Accident?”

A cold sneer appeared on Orcal’s lips.

“There was an attack.”

There was no way that an executive-level mine could have broken his arm just because of an ‘accident’.

“If it’s an attack…”

“Don’t you know, Captain, that the Jackal unit was attacked not long ago?”

“…Could it be that an old ghost has invaded the territory?”

“It’s probably not just the old ghost.”

Considering the old ghost’s mental state, there was no way he could have planned such a cunning plan.

“Then…”

“Yes, it means that rats looking for Deimos’ treasure have sneaked into the territory.”

“….”

The guard captain’s eyes shone coldly.

He turned his head to the guard who was standing blankly and said.

“Contact the main management office right now and check whether the gold scheduled for delivery today has arrived.”

“yes!”

The security guard rushed somewhere and returned in less than 5 minutes.

“They say the gold scheduled to be delivered today hasn’t arrived yet!”

“That’s right.”

The corner of the guard captain’s mouth twitched.

The gold that was supposed to arrive has not arrived yet.

That meant only one thing.

“It looks like rats have taken over the factory.”

Startle.

Aktur’s shoulders trembled.

“Isn’t that so…”

“Quiet.”

A huge amount of magical power was released from the body of the guard captain who had covered Aktur’s mouth, as if he could not breathe.

“I’m not stupid enough to be fooled by your poor acting.”

“town! “Ugh.”

Cheeeeeek!

The guard captain’s hand holding Aktur’s mouth began to burn hotly.

“Can you guide me to where the rats are right now?”

“Ugh. town!”

Arctur rolled his eyes with a look of horror and quickly nodded.

“good.”

The guard captain held out the sacred stone he was holding in his hand to Orkal.

“I will catch the rats. “You will report and check that the items inside are not damaged.”

“No, me too….”

“Commander Orcal. “Was it difficult for you to understand what I said?”

The guard captain glared at Orcal with eyes shining with greed.

His eyes were filled with the desire to catch all the rats that had invaded the territory and take all the credit.

“…All right.”

“Haha. I’ll be sure to tell Deimos that you played a significant role in catching the rats.”

The guard captain smiled kindly and gathered all the guards inside.

“We are going to catch rats now!”

“yes!”

The security guards rushed towards the factory.

“…ha.”

Orcal, who was left alone, sighed and brought the holy stone in his hand to the third door.

Grrrrrrrgh!

The final door opened, revealing countless treasures stored within the golden treasury.

Orcal entered the golden treasury and closed the door.

and.

Creep, boom, boom!

With an eerie sound, Orcal’s face began to twist and turn like crushed clay.

The jumbled and distorted face returned to that of a young man.

“That’s when people are most easily fooled.”

Oh Jin looked at the treasures filled inside and twisted the corners of his mouth.

“Just when you thought you weren’t stupid.”

The sound of giggling laughter echoed within the golden treasury.
