Labyrinth City Mesugaki Pawn Shop

53. Measurement (1)

Strangely, there were no customers at the pawnshop.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time. Yan counting gold coins in the space listened to the alarm sound in his head and raised his head.

′′ Huh? Out of town?!”

The tracking magic briefly hung on the body of a crap shone.

A structural formula that immediately sounds a warning to Yan if he steps out of the designated range.

At the same time, a signal came from Yerica, who briefly taught her magic.

[Floren, wagon companion, one-day distance]

It seems like they went out together with Floren, who had been insured in case they didn’t know, and after thinking about the distance by carriage for a day, they realized that they were still within the range of the tracking magic, and put their minds at ease.

I was worried that the saintess might have really made up her mind and stole Einheri out of the city, but it didn’t seem to be the case.

“The Cat Thief…!”

My teeth are grinding when I think of the saintess who gave us a choice between marriage and entry into the Dvořák family.

I recognized Einheri first.

She was the one who directed the stone that had been abandoned in her back alley to the pawnshop, so why was it taken away?

“Ah, welcome.”

Her half-naked hair and short-trimmed mustache, a pot-bellied man entered at the same time as a familiar woman.

It was Maria Salomea, a dragon wearing a white robe and two black horns sprouting from her temples.

And the man who wrapped her waist and buttocks with one arm and kneaded her, smiled at what was so good about it.

“Not too long ago, it seems that I asked you to look for something. So… That cancer…Cancer…”

“It is the scale armor of the rock dragon. Louis Devierne.”

“hehehe, yes! Is that necessary for research?”

“Yes, the material of the rock dragon is an excellent shielding material. It is an indispensable element in research.”

“Yes. Yes… It’s a study, of course you should buy it if you need it.”

“Yes, it is absolutely necessary. Mr. Devierne.”

Kwak.

As Yongin’s ass was gripped in her tight grip, the corners of Louis Deviène’s mouth soared as if satisfied.

Total payment 4820 doubloons.

Despite the amount of money that would be burdensome even for a noble of the empire, he took out a slip from his pocket without any hesitation, wrote the amount in it, and handed it to Yan.

“There is only one scale armor!!”

Even if you look at the checking account linked to the Imperial Central Bank, the verification mark of the mage tower, and the material and style of the paper, it was genuine.

However, when Yan looked at the number of the linked account, he was slightly suspicious.

Among the 12-digit account numbers, in the part indicating the affiliation of the account, the number corresponding to the corporation, not the individual, was written.

And while looking back to see where the number belonged, Yan was able to recall that it was the alchemist’s guild.

Did the Alchemist Guild have enough money to spend money on luxury items like this?

There are some receivables for purchasing magic materials from the alchemist guild…

‘Maybe it would be okay if I ate a little?’

To the extent that I have such impure thoughts.

After a brief inquiry through the flow of magical power, Jan, convinced that it was genuine, flicked his fingers and took out the prepared scale armor from space.

And the scale armor that appeared was reminiscent of a black diving suit rather than an armor.

There are only two sets, top and bottom, but the structure perfectly blocks the wrists and ankles.

Then, he handed over the gold-colored certificate along with the goods.

And Yan spat out a prepared notice.

“You may cancel a transaction or return a product within 30 minutes of purchasing an item at a pawnshop (Article 17, Paragraph 1 of the 「Act on Consumer Protection in International Standard Transactions, etc.」). If the condition of the goods is different from the contents of the notation certificate or the contents of the contract are fulfilled differently, the order can be canceled and returned within 1 week from the date of supply of the goods, etc., Or within 3 days from the date the fact was known or could have been known. …”

Yann’s Proprietary, Rules & Terms The rapid-fire gun popped out.

I expected Louis Devierne to wave his hand or quickly leave the pawnshop after hearing that, but as if he didn’t hear anything from Jan, he just kept looking at Maria Salomea, the dragon slave next to him.

As if possessed.

Even though the scale armor of a petroglyph is thin and flexible enough to stick to the body, and has a leather-like feel, its basis is heavy armor.

Although it is said to have been lightly and firmly processed through magical treatment and various refining, it is still the material of a rock dragon that lives by eating rocks and metal.

Even though it was not a weight that an ordinary woman could lift, Maria lifted it with one hand as if she didn’t care and took something out of her bag.

It was a strange mechanical device slightly larger than a hand, with a yellow appearance.

In order to operate a pawnshop, it is the nature of having shallow knowledge of various fields and things, so I have encountered many things. It was a device I had never seen before.

Even if you tried to call an expert to ask, it was impossible to even guess what kind of field to call or where it was used.

A square box with something hanging like a trumpet connected by a line.

But soon I could see right in front of me how and where it was being used.

A stone in a small metal box taken out of a bag one after another.

Looking at the outside of the box…Is it lead? I tilted my head, but I’m sure it was.

I couldn’t figure it out at once like blacksmith Walundre, but I still had my own time.

And what was taken out was a small but unmistakable pitch blend.

Yan also displayed it in a corner of the pawnshop, but Einheri suddenly put it in a lead box and put it in the corner.

When I tried to take it out later, I barely prevented it from destroying it.

As I pointed the trumpet toward the pitch blend, a small sound came from the yellow box.

‘Tick-Tick-Tick-Tick-Tick…’

In an instant, goose bumps ran over Yan’s skin.

A primary color tone of fear piercing the lungs like thorns resonated from the small box.

Despite not knowing what the sound was, Jan almost tried to kill Yong-in by using magic and crushing Louis Deviène, who was massaging his waist and buttocks.

As the mighty magical power fluctuated along Yan’s wavering emotions, the face of Louis Deviène, who had been coveting the slave’s body all along, turned pale.

“What, what…!”

As the waves of encroaching magical power sweep through the surroundings, as if squeezing the chest, as if being dragged into the endless sea, all that remains is a pig with its legs untied.

But even in the midst of that, Yongin was operating the trumpet as if nothing was wrong.

Then, put the pitch blend on top of the armor and put the trumpet under it, in the part corresponding to the inner skin-

‘T-Dik-…………’

Finally the ominous sound stopped.

“…What the hell is that?”

Her intuition as Jan’s witch was ringing her alarm bells in her head.

[Danger, risk. Danger, risk, risk.]

It was a small thing that would not pose a threat to her in the present situation, but she had a hunch that if she was let out of this place, it would surely cause great anger.

“This is an object that informs us of invisible things through sound. Originally, you wouldn’t even know about it, but you shouldn’t know about it.”

Enigmatic words.

I took out the trumpet again, and there was a crackling sound, and it stopped when I put the pitch blend into the lead box.

Lead, box, pitch blend.

It flashed through her mind that Einheri had put the pitch blend that was on display in a lead box and put it away in a corner.

Did Einheri know about this?

“In the first place, I don’t know why the witch is so interested in things like toys like this.”

He grabbed hold of Louis Deviène, who was sitting in place, and tried to raise her up, but her legs completely collapsed, so all he could do was lean on Maria’s body.

The yellow water and musty smell that flowed between her loose legs, and even the brown color of her buttocks spreading over her clothes.

An ugly pig, stricken with her fear, shuddered and buried her head on the floor, unable to meet Yan’s eyes properly.

“Oops, the owner has done a great disrespect.”

I wonder if he wants to pay the cost of cleaning the dirty floor?

Taking out one of her gold coins and placing it on the counter, Maria put her hand between Louis Deviène’s armpit and forced it up, as if she didn’t mind getting dirt on her body.

Then, while looking at his trembling eyes, I whispered slowly, word by word, in his ear.

“Master, it’s time to go home.”

“Master, it’s time to go home.”

“Master, it’s time to go home.”

Louis Devierne’s body, which had been unable to control itself as if it was trembling every time he uttered it, began to slowly calm down and then stood still.

“Uh… Huh? Why me…? hahahaha yes! I came to buy something!”

Unlike before, he seemed to be sane, and he was standing up on the floor as if his limbs had returned, but… In Yan’s eyes, he looked completely different.

His behavior was like a puppet show, as if an invisible skein of thread grabbed his entire body and forced him to rise.

Contrary to his appearance, his mind was rather unstable.

Even though a nobleman or a nobleman had excrement and urine all over his body and face, he didn’t notice it at all and wiped his cheeks and even gently wiped his nose.

A funny sight that doesn’t feel any abnormality, it was by no means insane.

And the cause is that Yongin, Maria Salomea.

The snake’s eyes, no, the dragon’s eyes, which were torn vertically, looked like they could be sucked in, facing Yan.

Eyes that I hadn’t noticed before, when I visited wearing glasses.

Magical power swirling in the pupils, a demonic eye that is rare on the continent has appeared.

“Those eyes… It’s a dragon’s eye that only appears to the immediate family. “

Only then did Yan realize what was going on.

“Since there is no way that there are dragons left in this era, is it a direct lineage, or even an abnormal manifestation by skipping generations? Rather, the quality of the royal family in the country of beasts these days is very bad. The royal family, taking on the role of slaves.”

I should have thought it was something strange at the point where Yongin, the lineage of the dragon revered as the founder of the Suin-guk, wandered around as a slave.

I wondered how a certain aristocrat could have accepted Yongin, who had been lucky enough to commit treason, as a slave, but it seemed that was not the case.

It seems that it was not her who became her slave, but this aristocrat.

Both body and mind seemed to be possessed by the dragon’s magic.

It seemed that the spell of obedience engraved on the body was something that seemed plausible only on the surface.

The same goes for the huge shackles around his neck.

“That can’t be the case, Jan Estoria witch. Are the shackles and the spells of obedience all normal?”

“Right, this slave listens very well, look. He doesn’t show any resistance even when he acts like this.”

Even when her ass was grabbed and her breasts were harassed by Louis Devierne, Maria Salomea just smiled and acted like it was a play.

“With just that? In the first place, the Mystic Eye cannot be blocked by such restraints or submissions. If she knew she had a demonic eye, she wouldn’t have made her a slave in the first place. She would rather gouge out her eyes.”

“For some reason, if it was as it was… It would have passed without incident like the last time… Should I see this as a kind of penalty, or did you feel too good…”

It was a tone of approval, but Maria shrugged her shoulders as if nothing was wrong and straightened her clothes.

Yan raised his hand, and in an instant, the pawnshop’s showcases reversed their positions, blocking their path.

From noble mtl dot com

“Under the imperial law, slaves released from control were innocent even if they were executed on the spot.”

It wasn’t just because of Yongan.

“Determine. Will you be executed on the spot, or will you be captured?”

I did it because I believed in my intuition that if I let that dragon go without any action, something that even I couldn’t stop would happen.

She follows her intuition as her witch, who has saved her time and time again from her death, and from her danger.

Maria muttered as she looked down at Yan with her cold eyes.

“I really hate a quick-witted kid like you.”
