Chapter 44 (2/2)

But that “chain” part at the end of the letter scaresme in a prison?

“What did your last boss say?”

The Sword Saint asked me this in a bored tone

What shall I say…

“A congratulatory letter formy job?”

When I said this with a slight frown, the Sword Saint grinned in joy for whatever reason, and went down the secret passage with the children Monna suddenly clio chop chop, is she?

After a few seconds, I heard Rein’s screa the safe Why am I safe, you ask? Well, you see, that screas Either the Sword Saint got an to beat up the kid, or one of the traps that I set up in the passage like giant boulders or arroalls activated

I wondered why traps were o, but then I found out they were actually easy to make, and were also very reliable It’s not like you can create a field of ma, or create a pit full of sharks Honestly, it’s better to stick to traditional methods

Anyway, I still activated several barricades to fully ensure an to pour the contents of the safe into a bag I prepared beforehand

“…So this is it”

Let’s not forget putting in that lily heirlo… actually, I’ood with flowers, so let’s just use this flower heirloo?

Well, whatever It’s not like I have any other flower heirloouess I’ll take these other heirlooms as well? And then…

-Uwah… so evil…

[I’m a villain, after all]

What a false evidence, of course!

Howling never stole anything like family heirlooms Why would they, when they can always fabricate one that looks just like the real thing? And the fao absolutely crazy over trying to take it back It’s just not worth stealing it

But it’s not like there actually isn’t any value in stealing it Fa they’re super expensive But the part of the heirlooic-refined wood That’s why I’anization used the heirlooe purpose After all, I’d be killed in an instant if people found out I was the one who stole the heirlooms

[Is there any fake evidence we can come up with?]

-Mm… I only knohat you know, so it’ll be hard to coood… ? They already used fake heirlooms to do that, so it should work out just fine

[Oh, pretty good]

With this, Howling has onetrouble now, aren’t they!

“I should run now, too”

I stuffed the heirloootten their ink dry, so I’ll just leave it here… Since I was the one who took care of theet too suspicious Mm… maybe it is a bit suspicious?

Whatever If I try to escape through the path the kids went through… the i, so I’ll run off in a different path I opened one of the drawers below the closet, and unlocked the secret mechanism

Clack!

This is escape route 11,an escape path in a closet was far too obvious, so I thought about putting it in a drawer below the closet After pushi+ng my body into the tiny hole forcefully, I lit the candles, closed the drawer, and locked the secret mechanism

-Super complicated?

[Better than dying]

After doing that, I walked through the dark cave…

[Whoa, creepy Feels like a ghost would pop up]

…Don’t say so like tha…

“Oh good, you did actually come this way”

…Oh deary host instead?
