Chapter 99: What are you trying to steal? (2)

“Hey blackie . Don’t just bite his ass, bite the front too . ”

Woof?!

Anubis seriously debated after hearing Ju-Heon's order . Should he listen to a damn human's orders or not?

However, he didn't have to think long .

“Aaaaaaaaah!”

Anubis opened its large mouth toward the bellboy's little son . It wasn’t that he was doing it because Ju-Heon ordered him to do so .

He just found this human who disturbed his sweet slumber to be rude!

Yoo Jaeha who saw that gasped and pulled the savage Anubis back .

“Aigoo, bad boy! No! You can’t bite there! Do you really want to do that when you're a male too?!”

Yoo Jaeha was pulling with everything he had .

“Captain-nim! Please stop him!”

“Why should I?”

“What did you say sir?”

Yoo Jaeha ended up being dragged by the close to 70kg Anubis . Of course, Anubis was trying to bite the bellboy even as he dragged Jaeha with him .

That wasn’t the only thing…

[Do not grab me with your dirty human hands!]

“Eek, don’t bite me!”

Anubis viciously growled at Yoo Jaeha who was holding onto him as well .

Yoo Jaeha was huffing as he started to shake the picture once the rope bound the bellboy .

"Alright, now spill it . Who the hell are you guys? Why do you have a picture of us?”

“Like I said, I just picked this up……!”

“Damn it, I can't understand you . Speak English instead of Chinese!”

Ju-Heon sneered at him .

A vicious dagger stabbed the bellboy's right arm at the same time .

Bang!

“Ahhh!”

The bellboy screamed at the terrible sight . However, the hand he thought was cut off was completely fine .

The dagger had stabbed the bracelet he was wearing and not his arm . It was a red bracelet . However, the bellboy who thought that his wrist was going to be cut off was shaking in fear .

“Picked it up my ass . ”

Ju-Heon picked up the bracelet he had cut off . Ju-Heon who understood the things the bellboy had been saying in Chinese started to wave the bracelet around .

“Can I just send the bill for the compensation for using my photo to your superior? Chinese excavation team 's Corporal Liao Yu?”

Both the bellboy and Lee Seol-A gasped after hearing his question . The name was one thing, but he was able to figure out the excavation team information based on a bracelet with not much features! Even Yoo Jaeha asked in shock .

“The Chinese excavation team? This bellboy bastard is part of it?”

“Yes . ”

Ju-Heon looked toward the bellboy and Lee Seol-A as if he found this amusing .

‘I guess it's about time for the C-R Alliance to start moving . ’

China and Russia had both rejected the invitation from Pandora, the International Artifact Administration Organization consisting of many nations .

It was to be expected .

Joining Pandora meant that they would all share tombs and artifacts .

China would find it terrible to even think about foreign soldiers, especially US soldiers, entering their territory .

Even if they came with a justification such as for excavating a tomb… It was a way for them to infiltrate the country and gather information . China had even protested Korea installing the THAAD missiles in the past .

The artifacts and tombs had even caused a second Cold War in the future .

They hired talented artifact users to excavate tombs and quarreled with each other .

‘Well, a war between countries for benefits is none of my business . ’

Ju-Heon saw both Pandora and the C-R Alliance in the same light for using artifacts to rip the world off .

Anyway, he had wondered who Lee Seol-A was working for, but it seemed as if she was a lackey for China . But Ju-Heon who learned of this fact quietly clicked his tongue .

Of all places, why did it have to be China?

‘I don’t like China because it reminds me of that lunatic . ’

The Four Emperors of the past were Keira of the US faction, Ali of the Middle East faction, and Kwon Tae Joon of the Guerrilla faction .

As for the last person…

It was the Monarch of Gluttony of the Chinese faction .

She was the most difficult to handle, the strongest and worst enemy of all artifact users . Ju-Heon had almost died because of that worst predator as well .

But in the end, Ju-Heon was the final victor .

How?

For some reason, she had committed suicide in front of him .

That extremely strong woman… Even though the situation had not called for it…

Anyway, Chairman Kwon who was in second place rose to her Emperor position after that .

Of course, it was still shocking as he thought about it . That was why he treated her as a lunatic and didn’t want to get involved with China if he didn't need to do so .

‘But it shouldn’t matter in the present time . ’

That lunatic shouldn't be connected to China yet . It wouldn't be bad to take the initiative first .

Ju-Heon who came to that conclusion walked over to Lee Seol-A and started to speak .

“Looks like you were aiming for Anubis's artifact to tackle the 7 Great Tombs . ”

Ju-Heon continued to speak .

“Your superior must have told you about the 7 Great Tombs, right? Hand that information over . ”

Lee Seol-A flinched but did not lose her calm .

‘He wants me to hand over information about the tomb?’

There was no way that was going to happen .

She needed a strong artifact such as the one from the 7 Great Tombs to get away from China . She would not give up on this tomb so easily!

And then…

She bit down on the rope that was binding her .

Lee Seol-A had figured out the rope's weakness while being bound for almost twelve hours .

Chomp!

The rope suddenly started to flail in shock as if it was bitten on a sensitive spot .

[#$&#$!]

Lee Seol-A quickly attacked Yoo Jaeha as soon as the rope loosened .

“Hand over my artifacts!”

Lee Seol-A who could even take down soldiers kicked Yoo Jaeha in the ribs .

Pow!

“Ugh!”

Yoo Jaeha curled over in pain as Lee Seol-A gathered her artifact and sneered at him .

“You’re so weak . ”

“This woman……!”

Lee Seol-A then instantly ran over to the terrace . Gildal’s artifact would be able to easily handle landing from 15 stories up .

‘I'll reassess the situation after running away!’

But the moment Lee Seol-A artistically jumped off the terrace!

[#$&#&$*!]

Why did you bite a weird spot?! Why did you bite it?!

“Kyaaaa!”

Lee Seol-A was caught by the rope, making her jump useless .

The sniffling rope had grabbed Lee Seol-A's foot as she jumped .

It then started to tie her up in a peculiar manner . It had held itself back and tied her up like a mummy in the past, but the rope wasn't going to go easy on her anymore!

[#$&#&$*!]

I'm going to punish you, punish you!

“Hey! Let go of me! Kyaaaaa!”

It tied Lee Seol-A's arms, legs, and all sorts of other places as it liked, hung her upside down, and started to dig through her clothes .

The rope squirmed in through Lee Seol-A's boobs, and even slid into her hotpants and rummaged inside her underwear .

"Wait, over there-!”

Lee Seol-A became flustered at the rope that was squirming around her body like a snake and screamed .

“Ah, hold on, where the hell do you think you’re going? Kyaaaa!”

The fact that her black bra was visible for a moment might have been her eyes playing a trick on her .

But then…

The rope that had been harassing Lee Seol-A for a while unexpectedly moved over to Ju-Heon and handed him something .

It was a small memory chip the size of a section of a finger .

[#&$#&$#*]

She was hiding this! She was hiding this!

Ju-Heon had not found anything when he searched her body earlier, so she must have been hiding it deep inside her body . A woman’s body had many places to hide something like this .

But the rope that handed him the chip was huffing as it moved its body side to side like an angry snake .

[#$&!]

It seemed to be extremely angry after having its weak spot bitten .

Ju-Heon patted the rope without thinking much about it .

“Good job . ”

[!]

The huffing rope was extremely shocked . It wondered if it was hearing things at this unexpected praise .

But the rope started to jump up and down in joy as if it had never been angry after realizing it actually happened .

[#$#&!]

I was praised! I was praised!

Of course, Anubis was shaking its head at the rope's reaction .

Lee Seol-A who was sexually harassed by the rope, failed to escape, and had the information about the 7 Great Tombs stolen was grinding her teeth .

The information popped up once Ju-Heon plugged the memory chip into his laptop .

There was a password on it, but it didn't matter .

“Blackie, go find out the password . ”

Anubis started to frown as soon as he heard the order .

[Human, you seem to have the wrong idea . I, I am not your dog……]

“You don’t have to do it if you don't want to be restored . Aren’t you in pain after using your powers at the shrine?”

Anubis started to grind his teeth in humiliation .

[Do not threaten me! You will die from the risk before I die, you bastard!]

“I know exactly what your risk is . I won’t die from such a thing . So stop the nonsense and do as I said . ”

Anubis was shaking in anger as he bit the bellboy's front parts .

[What the hell are you doing?! He said to tell him the password!]

Chomp!

“Aaaaaaaaaak! No! Stoooooop! It’s going to fall off!”

In the end, Ju-Heon who was informed of the password through peaceful(?) means inputted the password as Yoo Jaeha groaned and walked over .

“Ugh, Captain-nim . Is it opening?”

“Shut up . I'll give you some money so go get checked out at a hospital . ”

Ju-Heon looked through the vast information on the memory chip .

It had simple files about tombs and locations of artifacts . They seemed to have hacked Pandora as well as they even had the top 50 people of concern that Pandora determined through the party .

Ju-Heon was very satisfied .

‘I got something quite useful . ’

Ju-Heon then started to look for information on the 7 Great Tombs . The 7 Great Tombs were Disaster-Grade tombs under the large-tomb category, but most importantly, they were random tombs . He needed to know if the tomb was the same as the ones he remembered .

‘I might end up dying if I don't check this out . ’

Ju-Heon was also concerned about what the crow had told him on the Holten ship .

[There are leaders among the artifacts . They are the ones who imprisoned me . They will truly hate someone like you who ignores the authority of the artifacts . So, be careful . Tombs that go beyond your expectations will start to appear in the world . ]

‘Tombs?’

[Yes . It’ll be good for you to train the Tomb Raiding skill properly . ]

‘Is that why you keep provoking me with those messages?’

The 7 Great Tombs were most likely part of those tombs that went beyond his imaginations .

However, Ju-Heon started to smile .

Maybe it was because a thief’s natural instincts became oddly excited after hearing about a dangerous tomb or because he accepted this dumb challenge from the artifact bastards .

Either way, he finally opened a file containing information on the Great Tomb that was to open in Kyoto .

“Ah, this is driving me nuts!”

Richard looked toward Chairman Kwon who was angrily hanging up the phone .

“Did something happen?”

“You remember how we sent an excavation team to Kyoto for one of the 7 Great Tombs?”

“Of course . I remember you paid special attention to that . Did they all perish inside?”

“No . They couldn't even go inside!”

Chairman Kwon started to grind his teeth .

“They all perished without even making it inside . ”

“Excuse me?!”

Richard’s jaw dropped in disbelief . There was a reason Chairman Kwon was able to procure a lot of artifacts . His excavation team was extremely talented .

However!

“Something like that has never happened before . How could they perish at the entrance?!”

“It’s not just our excavation team . ”

Austin Rockefeller, Julian, and other excavation teams who had noticed something was up had headed for the entrance with large numbers of people .

But nobody could get through the entrance .

“I plan on going there myself but it seems like there’s something annoying inside the tomb . ”

Yes, it would definitely be annoying .

At least for them, that is .
