“Hah, you just use them on whores”

“Is there any other use for the annoyed lately… it’s about that Runes when the conversations switched towards the city Runesmith

“Shut your mouth, he is off-liood reason for it Don’t go out on your own and cause trouble”

The two goons looked dejected The Runeset to rob for years but they weren’t allowed to go near his house There had to be soround There was always a list of people that the guild members weren’t allowed to touch Most of the ti a lot of money to stay safe

The Runesh as the other merchants wanted hiet hiuild ainst hi protected by someone powerful on the outside

The only way of robbing his workshop would be to quickly abandon the city and seek shelter under a different guildto do The guild masters didn’t need to listen to each other but that didn’t e favors Sometimes the rule-breakers would be sent back in parts just to earn soood faith with a powerful tier 3 class holder This also depended on the transgression, fights between lower-ranked her-ups

“Fine but after this is over, you’re buying roup of thieves guildfor the Abyssal Cult signs It looked like they were the ones with all the cards Alh-priest Thanks to Roland’s devices they would be able to control the situation Even if soround they now had checkpoints where everyone would be examined Unless the cult created brand new tunnels they would not be able to infiltrate their underground base

…

A fewback into the wall It then slid to the side to reveal a large sturdy door This door didn’t have a handle; instead, there were various ht up The door started to slowly open up to reveal the leather-clad wouild …”

Thewith part of the upper garbs that were now co off When she was finished the leather armor made its way onto a wooden mannequin that was surrounded by various short-bladed weapons Throwing knives, poisoned needles, and items that looked like bolass cabinets

The secret lair of the thieves guild master was riddled with various traps and one of the few places where she could relax There was even a bathing area that the wo the foul stench of the unwashed thieves on her For someone with an enhanced sense of smell, it was truly a painful experience

“That I have to put up with this…”

The woe tubup to showcase a rather alluring visage When looking further a set of large fox ears could be spotted and after her bath was over it was completed by a tail that would fit on the same anies seemed to appear only after she re is finally happening”

After the bath, the wo eastern-style kihs popped out and only the a With the bushy tail and fox ears, she would be unrecognizable to the guild members and her body proportions were also altered

“Madauests?”

“Everything is in order”

The wo heavyforward through the establishment she could hear various heart-filledthe well-lit district that was filled with drunks and people seeking the thrill of the night

“Well done, keep up the good work…”

The woated pipe while looking out into the distance The working girl that ith her sht district clients

“Could this be a sign of change… perhaps this boredo face as she looked toward the star-filled sky Soon she returned back to her establishment to play her role where no one was the wiser

…

“Hm… Is this really the best that I can do?”

Roland as alorking until late into the night While people were having fun in the city he was stuck in this roohts At this point in ti at his ar it just so he could exa ho and all dents were ironed out

“What if I place this here…”

Recently he had questioned his choice of weaponry The ar spells but he felt like it should be able to dospell scrolls at people while encased into innovate a bit

In his hand, he had one of the legs that belonged to his spider golens that Bernir had asseether with his expensive armor, there wasn’t that much time If it was possible he needed to cut corners, if the new design worked then perhaps he could improve it later

“Hm… they are too short… but it doesn’t look that bad?”

After fiddling around for a s to the rear side of his arhtly below the neck and the shoulder part With this, they were able to bend forhile also backward

‘Should I place them on a rotary joint or will that complicate the mechanism? I could just make the top part bend backward to cover the rear… would ht?’

At first, he just wanted to insert the legs as so similar to a ination started to take over It seemed that the new trait that he had achieved was actually working In his lued to the armor back that could actually help hi to work, at least not for now…’

Roland wanted nothing n a futuristic runic suit of arn a whole new backplate to support those spider-like legs They would also need to be ht Then caran could beco would he truly know if it hile

“Best to stick to so around he had decided to take the spider legs down fro different, it was smaller and had a tube at the top part It was attached to so joints, with the tube part being on a circular joint In short, it was a seting ene around this miniature cannon was haphazardly placed on the ar the portable canon directly he could activate the inscribed runes to make it rise up It looked like an assembly line robotic limb that could move around

‘Maybe I should ed couiding spells at monsters that tried to attack him from the back or from a flank Yet the robotic li out and an eyesore, it wouldn’t be a problem for someone to hit it or for it to block his view Perhaps for certain situations, it would be better for it to be hidden behind his back, it would also probably be a nice thing to surprise his ene was one of thehis house defenses There were er ones at key locations on his walls They were soue with a high agility stat Yet they were designed to act more as a support feature to suppress any potential eneht actually work and won’t take much time to assemble”

The shoulder parts of his arht of this s them to the rest of the runic systera system it would automatically pick up threats and fire if he so desired

“Well then, It’s almost time”

Roland looked towards the hidden tunnel that he and Bernir had worked on for years now After all of his areon was upon him With some luck he would be able to reach the tier 3 threshold sooner than most people would expect him to
