《Hero? I'm assassin, but that's the same right?》Chapter 7. Robbing the Robbers... eh... Nobling the Nobles?
Advertisement
So... I decided to postpone my shopping spree, in favor of another heist... but...
Pyro: “Hey guys... what's wrong?” knights ran around, along with the maids... well staff...
Guard: “Someone Robbed the Merchant Guild's Vault! There were no traces of perpetrator...” oh... “And they stole one million gold!”
Pyro: “Pft... ONE MILLION?!” system...
What? Mass of gold coin is 50 gram, so no matter the commemorative value, we still take them by mass and exchange them. That's why usually no one exchanges gold to points.
What morons are this humans... stats are better... not like they can use points, right?
Guard: “Yes One million gold.” oh right I'm talking with the guard... knight... whatever.
Pyro: “And... is it a lot if judging by noble standards?”
Guard: “Yes. It's quite a lot. Usually great nobles have around 300'000-500'000 gold stored, but there are only 3 great nobles... royal family is not included, but even for them it's quite a sum.” so... basically... I stole 2-3 treasuries of great nobles?
Pyro: “Eh? I knew I had to ask for more money! eh... still... crown takes care of my spending habits... eh... oh thank you for information and have a good day.” and he ran off... doing... something... whatever... I'm going for breakfast... want some ice-cream though... wait... I have ice affinity... let's train affinities a bit by the way... Let's see... I don't want to train now, so I will do something else... oh.. right... I haven't talked with my fox slave...
…
So... her name is Kasumi... ands she's the golden-fox variant... they are rare and have quite high affinities in those elements. actually it's Fire, Water, Air, Earth, Light, Darkness, Lightning, Nature, Ice, Shadow and Illusion, but not others... Oh and she's quite shy... Well... she'll be quite a good companion for Nova and Ai... oh right... I'm sending them on the easy missions by themselves from now on... with permission to kill anyone... pissing them off... including other heroes... except Ken, and his harem... they are fun to watch... especially when he tries to hit on that tigress...

Oh right... I decided on going on for the 'Great Noble' treasury... ALL of the nobles, actually... so...
Pyro: “It's time for new skills” I said that and risen my Shadow Mastery along with Darkness... oh right... upgrade... so... it's a Fibonacci sequence actually... thank gods that it's only eleven! I got only 109 points left after my shopping spree! And fuck IT! I will go and steal all the gold I can!

First is the house of Lord Quicksilver... Strange name, but we digress... so his mansion in the capital is like... huge... and he's currently in the castle for some business... fun and all... but! I need his gold... silver isn't used in that exchange... so first we cover ourself in both magical shadow and darkness... and slip into the backyard...

Do you think there is more gold further inside?

Now it's better to get the Huddridstack family... if it was a fiction, I would think that author is just lazy... anyway... I decided to go for the basement from the beginning... and... his vault-door is actually solid gold! Easier for me... but first... let's get inside.

8 113Modern Magic
A Modern Magician BookI looked up at the crooked holo sign while the perfectly bred woman read from a paper, a plastic smile glued to her face.'Welcome to The City,' she said in a fake voice. 'Once formerly known as New York, The City is a place filled with ancient and modern wonders. Remember, if you see any magicians please report to the nearest police station or Black Hand officer.'I smiled at the sign and then raised a single finger. No, not the middle one. A blue misty light spun from my finger and into the holo device. The message quickly changed from the fake woman to one of my own.'Welcome to The City,' the woman read, her hair now dyed a fuchsia. Her eyelids were a dark blue and her bottom lip and right eyebrow were pierced. 'A special message from Hecate, queen of magic.' The woman looked up at me, a smirk playing on her lips. 'Welcome to my city.'
