Chapter 232 - Whoever Has It Lives! (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

With a plop, someone fell to the ground.

To be more precise, it was not called a corpse.

The entire room immediately fell silent.

Jess looked at Baldy who lay on the floor. He was in shock and was unable to react to what had just happened.

‘What happened?’

‘Why did he suddenly die?’

‘Am I still alive?’

‘At such a close distance, I might have been injured by accident, right?’

‘But why doesn’t my body hurt at all?’

Countless questions emerged in the young Elf Guard’s heart. He had too much adrenaline in him right now to think straight.

Behind him, Crow and Ruby stopped in their tracks.

They had originally planned to leave the room with Baldy, but the sudden situation made them hesitate, they could not act so rashly.

Although they did not see any movements, they all stared at Mike closely. It was obvious that Baldy was killed by this man.

That hothead wielded a huge sword and did not seem to have the ability, or else he would have attacked long ago.

The young elven guard, on the other hand, had a blank look on his face. Clearly, it was not him.

Then, the most likely person that made a move was the guy that guarded the door.

This information was the conclusion that Ruby and Crow came to almost in an instant.

Mike raised his head slightly to look at the two of them. Then, he slowly raised his right hand and said, “Who has the item. Whoever has what I want, lives.”

Mike did not clearly say what it was, but Ruby and Crow could understand what he meant.

He wanted the dagger!

Or rather, he wanted the staff!

Within the moment of Mike speaking, Ruby suddenly attacked!

Mike saw the red-haired woman raise her hand to attack with his own eyes, but he did not react at all.

He knew he had a passive skill to block her attacks, so he did not need to take any precautions. What he did not expect was that the red-haired woman’s target was not him.

It was…

Crow!

That’s right, she attacked her companion!

An extremely small dagger fell from Ruby’s sleeve into his hand, and it cut towards Crow’s neck at an extremely fast speed.

Just as the dagger was about to hit Crow, an accident occurred.

Crow’s hooded clothing suddenly fell to the ground, as if it had suddenly lost its weight.

Ruby’s attack cut onto the hooded outfit, but the moment it hit, her expression became grave.

This feeling was not right…

It was an empty hood!

The next moment, a cold black dagger was placed on Ruby’s neck.

“I surrender.”

Ruby raised her hands slowly and released the right hand that held the small dagger.

Clank.

The dagger fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Things got weird all of a sudden.

Jess, Timus, and Mike all stood still and did nothing. They stared as the two members of the Thieves Union started fighting by themselves.

The fight that occurred was quite interesting.

Clap, clap, clap.

Applause came from the entrance of the room.

Mike looked at the two people in front of him with a smile. He slowly put down his hands after he clapped and said, “Interesting.”

He looked at the two of them with great interest.

Now it was obvious that he no longer had to worry about finding the Umbrella of Meredith.
