Chapter 62 daily life and the hunt in Malrton 5 (2/2)
”...never mind”
Mars steeped over the wire and walked continued on his way until he reached a seemingly dead end and sheathed around before he stopped and looked at the wooden crate in front off him and walked over to it
”...surely it's not so simple?”
Mars lifted the top off the crate and saw a ladder that led down to the basement inside the crate
”sure was... it's down here Victoria”
Mars vent down the ladder as silently he could and looked around a empty narrow corridor with a reinforced iron door at the end
”bingo...”
deciding he had been silent long enough Mars walked up and kicked the door with almost all his strength
*BANG*
the door flew off the wall and clashed into a wall with a loud clang
”HONEY I'M HOME!”
Mars walked through the now empty doorway and saw a man that seemed to have nearly fallen over form shook sitting in a chair near the door
”who the fuck are you!?”
the man reached for a loaded crossbow as he yelled at Mars with fury in his eyes
”I wonder that myself sometimes!”
not feeling like talking a crossbow bolt to the face Mars kicked off the ground and delivered a stab to the man's neck with his sword and after the light disappeared in his eyes Mars picked up the crossbow with a sparkle in his eyes
”neat...”
Mars wanted to admire the crossbow some more but picked up some hurried footsteps and soon more men with swords this time burst through a door and after they saw the dead man on the floor they slashed at Mars with their swords, their swordsmanship was even half decent not that it mattered for long as they were almost instantly nailed to the wall by some well placed shadow spears
”nice shot!”
Mars ran through the door they had come form and came face to face with another 3 men which he quickly kill with his sword before he scanned the room and saw 2 doors, one was a normal wooden door and most likely led to a barracks of some sort while the other was reinforced like the entrance door
”I leave the other way to you!”
”okay...”
Victoria shot a few shadow spears and broke down the wooden door before she ran through it and soon some anguished screams sounded out form the broken door as Mars faced the other door and took a deep breath before he took a stance and raised his sword
”BREAK!”
Mars slashed down and cut though the iron door and the hinges on the other side before he kicked the door in and stepped through the now empty doorway into a office like room and looked around before he gave a sigh and turned around with a grin on his face
”looks like this is empty!”
Mars took a few steps back into the other room before he suddenly turned and fired the crossbow
”ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!”
Mars raised the crossbow and gave it a quick kiss before he turned around and saw a fat man clad in expensive clothes that had been hiding under the desk clutching his shoulder where a bolt had hit him a second earlier
”you really should get better at hiding dude...”
Mars stepped back into the office room with a grin on his face as the fat man half collapsed down on the chair that stood behind the desk while he glared at Mars and yelled
”do you even know you're fucking with!?”
”nope---”
Mars walked up to the desk and stabbed his sword though the head off the fat man that looked at him with wide eyes
”---sure don't”
Mars pulled out his sword and walked back out the room and yelled
”Victoria, you done?”
half a second later another anguished scream sounded out from the behind the broken down door before Mars received a telepathic message
”now... I... am”
about 30 seconds later Victoria jumped back though the broken door where Mars kneeled down and gave her a few pets on the head
”good job, Victoria... now let's loot the place”
”okay...”
Mars walked back into the office and cut the expensive looking carpet into a makeshift sack before he decapitated the fat man and stuffed his head into the sack and kicked his headless body off the chair and sat down
”now if I were a 150 some lard ass where would I hide my coins... in here for sure...”
Mars doubted the fat man would hide valuables outside off his office and opened one off the drawers
”now what do we have here?”
Mars digger through the drawers but besides a couple off important looking documents which he rolled up there was nothing in the drawers
”well that was disappointing... I'm sure Reimund can use theses documents though...”
not having satisfied his greed for loot Mars looked around the office one more time and stopped his glance on a painting that hung on the wall and walked up to it
”please be a safe.... YES!”
Mars did a fist pump as soon as he removed the painting where a steel safe was hidden behind
”now to crack this big boy open...”
Mars took a couple of steps back before he raised his sword and took a deep breath
”.....HA!”
Mars gave a low shout as he slashed down and though the safe with his sword before he quickly walked up and opened the safe
”...jackpot”
