Episode 49. Special Offer Store (1)
The black ship carrying the 49th aircraft cut through the current without hesitation.
The 49th riders, who had not slept for about two days, were taking a rest, scattered all over the black ship.
However, their mood was generally not good.
A few of them looked good on their faces, but most of them looked annoyed.
One of them finally couldn’t hold back his irritation and let out a harsh sound.
“Damn it, I did my hard work, but the harvest is dog hair!”

Many of the 49 aircraft showed sympathetic eyes at the swear words that echoed on the deck.
Jerry couldn’t help but smile lightly at the appearance of such classmates.
“boy… … .”
The story that most of the 49 units in the process of changing dragons would be in vain.
I accepted his offer, but I was suspicious of Gingamin.
No, honestly, I thought I was just cheating once.
But what?
When I listened to the story of my classmates after changing dragons, I realized that everything he said was true.
In addition, the information about the three people he gave me was also true, and luckily, I monopolized them, so I was able to get a total of more than 3,000 points.
Although it may not be that many points for the second year, it could be said that it was a meaningful achievement to get that much point alone when everyone else was in vain.
Because of that, the moment I was about to rise up in my heart, I was grateful for Yuri.
‘what? Come to think of it, that guy… I don’t think I saw it in the group of passers-by.’
It was clear that he would stand out if he had dark black hair and a unique sloppy feel.
However, he did not remember seeing him until he left the island.
“… Did you fall?”
After muttering that, Jerry sighed.
“Ah, there’s no way that guy will fall.”
It was just that there were a lot of passers-by for this 50th class, so there was a high possibility that he hadn’t seen them before.
or… … .
“Didn’t you show up late because you were doing something weird somewhere? Poop!”
Jerry muttered so playfully that he soon forgot about Yuri and fell asleep.
* * *
A boy walking surrounded by 10 Black Swordsmen.
He was definitely the Yuri who had headed to Yoram mainland two days ago.
At the appearance of Yuri and the Black Swordsmen, some of the 50 units glanced curiously.
However, those who rolled their eyes quickly had to take their eyes off them, startled.
It was because the momentum of the Black Swordsmen surrounding Yuri was unusual.
A life so cold that your spine goes cold just by looking at it.
The jockeys of the 50th, who had glanced at each other, broke into a cold sweat.
‘What, what is it? Why are you like that?’
‘What happened?’
Although the Black Swordsmen were blunt, it was the first time I had seen them spill their lives like that.
Obviously something had happened, and I was curious about what it was.
However, who would have gone far enough to go to the Black Swordsmen in such a state and ask what had happened?
On the other hand, surrounded by the murderous Black Swordsmen, Yuri seemed completely unconcerned.
He just kept talking while making fun of his mouth that was visible under his long hair.
“No, no matter how much it is, isn’t it a bit like having 10 Black Swordsmen cling to one child?”
“… … .”
“Isn’t it?”
“… Be quiet and walk.”
“yes.”
Yuri, who received the Black Swordsman’s ferocious glare, quickly shut up.
After a while, seeing Yuri standing in front of him, the one-eyed man opened his mouth.
“What about Yuri Holland’s dragon plaque?”
“The result of the check is that there is nothing wrong.”
As it was already expected, the one-eyed man did not show much excitement.
I was just wondering where and what this guy was doing until now.
“Where did you find it?”
“That is… … .”
At that question, the people who brought Yuri made a puzzled expression.
Among the Black Swordsmen, who seemed to be the most advanced, spoke in a low voice.
“… This is the vice-captain’s barracks.”
For a moment, the one-eyed man thought he had heard something wrong.
he asked, narrowing his eyes.
“Where?”
However, his hearing was normal.
The only thing abnormal is the place where Yuri was captured.
“… I caught it in the barracks of the vice-captain within the garrison.”
“My barracks?”
“yes.”
The one-eyed man’s head turned to Yuri.
At that glaring gaze, Yuri scratched the back of her head and smiled heartily.
“hehehe, somehow this place looks better than other places.”
“You guys… … .”
A complicated light entangled in the one-eyed man’s only eye.
‘Hidden in the garrison? Even in my barracks?’
It was a full day’s journey by boat from the Forest of Beginnings to the mainland of Cradle.
During the month-long survival test period, numerous black sword soldiers could not walk back and forth that long distance each time.
That’s why the temporary camp outside the northern wall was created… … .
In fact, he did not hide the camp of the Black Sword Corps from the reserve riders.
If you wanted to find it, other reserve riders would have been able to find the garrison.
But what kind of madman would think of hiding beyond the castle walls and into a place teeming with black swordsmen?
‘… But there was.’
A guy who proudly does crazy things that no one else would do.
Even the crazy squire who hid in the barracks of the vice-captain of the Black Sword Corps.
“her… … .”
The one-eyed man made a strange expression.
‘Did you deliberately go into hiding at this time?’
The usual garrison boasted strict vigilance by the resident black sword soldiers.
No matter how talented a horseman is, he won’t be able to easily sneak into the garrison.
But only one day out of the month.
There will come a moment when all boundaries become loose for several hours and the garrison becomes empty.
‘It’s the moment when even I, the general manager of the forest, leaves.’
That was the time when all the tests were over and hundreds of Black Swordsmen went into the Forest of Beginnings to clean up.
In other words, that time was the most perfect moment for someone with a purpose to hide in the garrison.
The one-eyed man glared at the glass.
“A body search?”
“I did, but nothing wrong.”
“What is missing from my barracks?”
“When we looked… There was none.”
“No? nothing?”
“yes.”
The scar of the one-eyed man wriggled.
‘Did you enter my barracks for no reason?’
I honestly didn’t understand.
It was unlikely that he would simply hide in his barracks for no purpose.
‘What was there?’
The barracks in the Forest of Beginning Garrison were only temporary for a month, so there was nothing special.
No, it was more like a simple office than a residence.
Because of this, all we have are some bedding, household items, and a few urgent papers.
Even that document wasn’t something that would be of interest to a prospective jockey who stayed in the Forest of Beginnings.
‘Then why the hell?’
One eye of the one-eyed man staring at the glass narrowed.
As if to see through the inside of the guy.
‘purpose… It’s purpose… … .’
What if Yuri Holland’s original purpose was not to be in his barracks?
Then why did this guy hide in his barracks?
‘If this guy… … .’
Suddenly, one of the man’s eyes lit up.
He lowered his voice with mana and relayed it to his subordinate.
[Search the equipment storage immediately.]
A high-level mana control technique that allows only the desired target to hear their voice.
Understanding at once why the vice-captain had ordered only himself through this, Soo-ha only nodded lightly and moved straight away.
The one-eyed man who gave the order threw a question at Yuri this time.
“I’m asking just in case… … .”
“… … ?”
“Do you have kleptomaniac?”
As soon as the question was finished, Yuri became angry as if it was unfair.
“No, how do you look at people! And the kleptomaniac ‘do’ too! If it’s ‘do’, what else is there?! I went into that barracks just to hide!”
“… … .”
“Since it’s the best-looking place, I thought it must be a room for a high-ranking person! After all, if it’s a room occupied by the highest ranking person, they won’t search. How to see a real person!”
Yuri showed an expression of regret, as if he had been hurt by those words earlier.
But it didn’t take long for that look to change.
Cut-.
Those who went to search the supply warehouse at the one-eyed man’s order brought several large sacks.
After briefly reporting something to One-Eye, they poured out the contents of the sack in front of Yuri’s eyes.
Then pouring small pebbles and dirt.
Charleur-.
Looking at the heap of pebbles, one eye blew.
“Kleptomaniac, no?”
“What are you talking about?”
“That was a sack for the 10-point notes kept in the supply warehouse. But as you can see, the contents have now turned into pebbles.”
point.
The silver coin with the hole was valuable only to the riders.
Points, which were not currency, were just fake money for the Black Swordsmen, and common items to manage.
In particular, the 10 unit points were malicious stock and had been in the warehouse for a long time, so the Black Swordsmen didn’t pay much attention… … .
‘You bastard, you managed to find it.’
Although it is said that it is a malicious inventory point that remains, it will still be 100,000 points.
In addition, since it is worth 10 points, the lowest unit, the amount must be considerable.
‘I couldn’t move it all at once, so it must have been a good idea to hide it somewhere and take it with me later.’
Anyway, the Forest of Beginnings was closed for a while after this dragon change, so it was a good situation to come back and collect the hidden points later.
However, it would have taken quite a long time to hide the points, and there would have been no time to get out of the garrison.
That’s why he deliberately hid in his barracks.
‘Even if you sneak into my barracks, if you haven’t stolen anything from there, you can’t be charged.’
Yuri is not yet an official rider, and there is an excuse that it was an act that could not be helped in order to survive.
In other words, all of this was his plan.
even… … .
“Where are you?”
“I’m not sure what you’re talking about… … What else is the point?”
Even that natural virtuous acting.
The one-eyed man asked, forcing himself to stop laughing.
“Where did you hide the stolen thing?”
“Really, I don’t know.”
Yuri’s face was really unfair, but it was a performance that didn’t work for the one-eyed man who had already confirmed him as the culprit.
It’s good if you don’t curse at me for being shameless.
However, the one-eyed man did not dislike Yuri’s impudence.
‘A bold guy.’
No matter how much the majority of the Black Swordsmen had left and the guards loosened, it was a garrison where the Black Swordsmen were gathered.
Breaking into such a place was an unthinkable challenge for an ordinary reserve rider.
There, wander around the garrison to find the equipment warehouse and collect points.
Furthermore, pretending to hide in the general manager’s barracks and making a plan to escape?
Is that also ad hoc?
Isn’t this a monster that goes beyond being bold?
Although he was caught, quite a few guys must have been possessed by this monster.
So, far from hating this one-eyed man, he was getting better little by little.
He said with a smile at the sight of Yuri, who was still saying, “I don’t know, I don’t know anything.”
“Give me the things you stole now.”
“No, how do you look at people from earlier… … !”
“If you hand it over now, I will not charge you, and I will let you take half of the stolen goods.”
It was the courtesy of the one-eyed man who had found a guy he liked after a long time.
Even if it’s half, that alone would be enough for tens of thousands of points.
That was no different from a great benefit to the rider, a newbie who had just passed through the gates of the Forest of Beginnings.
Also, while this was a benefit, it was the last warning that One-Eye gave to Yuri.
Now that I’ve put up with it this far, stop acknowledging it and don’t cross the line.
Yuri accepted the warning.
faster than anyone else in the world.
“… God, you’ve seen it very well! Wow, your eyes for seeing people are truly excellent!”
Seeing Yuri who raised her thumb in 0.1 second, the audience fell silent.
