After reaching the north east side of slums, we went towards the wall. I checked all the boundary and... gotcha! I found the secret door in the shape of 6 stones.
I turned around.
Daisuke " I find it."
They ran towards me.
Knight " Where?"
Daisuke" Just push and you will see."
We pushed the stones and those moved forward. After coming out, we pushed the stones back.
Knight was gobsmacked.
Heather " We have to seal it."
Daisuke " Yes but now we have to find them. Any ideas? It's my first time here."
Knight" That might be hard. There are many rich people here."
Heather" He's right. Do you have any suggestions?"
I held my chin and started thinking.
Daisuke" Thieves are using a secret door to get in here with sleep powder. Either they are pnning a big heist or taking revenge. Maybe."
I looked towards them after lowering my arms.
Daisuke " Is there a person with a rare item or someone who has bad blood with thieves?"
Heather" There is a merchant called Webber. He helped against them before."
Daisuke" Then, let's go to his house. They are after him."
Their eyes widened and nodded.
........
My name is Zub. A Thief. Once, I was at peak. Until a merchant helped Knight corps against my gang. I lost everything. So, I decided to take revenge.
I pnned everything step by step and tonight. I am going to make him pay with his life. I have infiltrated his house with some thieves who wants to loot.
While they are looting and killing his servants, I am going towards his room. First, I will break his bones. Then, I will kill his family before his eyes.
After that I will kill him. I will like to see his begging face for death.
.......
Daisuke POV
When we reached his house. We broke the door and heard the noises from different directions. Heather and me went up. But Heather went against a guy, who was about to rape a maid.
I went in the other room and...
Bang!
A guy in fine clothes was smmed against the wall.
???" Who the fuck are you?"
A burly guy with a sword. Well, looks like I finally get our guy.
Daisuke " So, you are here for revenge."
???" Yes and you better stay out of IT!"
Daisuke " Nope."
???" THEN, DIE!"
He rushed towards me. As he approached, I used bullet time skill. During our way, Heather told me to kill everyone. This whole event was a disgrace upon Knight corps.
So, I turned around him and....
Ssh!
Thud!
Both his head and body fell with blood gushing out. At that time, Heather came in.
Heather " Webber!"
She ran towards the merchant. I decided to go down and a light smoke was making the knights dizzy and injured.
Sigh!
I ran downstairs and swallowed a pill. I went in the smoke and it was useless. I moved forward and using bullet time skill sshed them all in half.
......
As Heather came near the staircase with now healed Webber. She saw Daisuke cleaning his sword from blood in a swing while standing in the vanishing smoke.
Webber " Captain. Who is the young man?"
Heather " An explorer named Daisuke Goto. "
Webber " A foreign noble?!"
Heather" Do you know his family?"
Webber" No. Probably from the other continent."
Heather" I see."
..........
Daisuke POV
As I turned around, I saw Heather coming down with merchant.
Daisuke " Looks like everything is done. I will take my leave now."
Heather" Considering what you have done for us, a knight will escort you to Bored Egg."
I nodded and went out.
.......
Early morning
Webber was having breakfast with his family. When a maid arrived.
Maid" You called, master."
Webber " I have put some GCS in a box in my study. Take them to the knights and tell them to seal the secret passage permanently. Also tell them to give my thanks to the foreign noble, who saves our lives."
Bowing.
Maid" Yes, master."
???" Honey. Is the young man, who saves our lives is really a foreign noble?"
His wife Zua asked.
Webber" That's what Knight Captain Heather Kua Nib told me. Apparently, he has arrived here recently due to newly formed byrinth. "
Zua" An explorer?"
Nodding.
Webber" Precisely. He has also saved the life of Lady Yae from bandits earlier and has business with her before."
With a raised brow.
Zua" Sves?"
Shaking his head.
Webber " No. Monster ingredients."
Zua" I see. She seems to be making connections outside the continent."
Webber" No. According to Captain Nib, she met him in Vibe."
Zua" I see. But isn't it strange?"
Webber" It is. I saw him battle....no killing them easily with each one in a single strike."
???" REALLY?!"
His 5 years old boy Cob asked.
Webber" Yes. He seems to be a high level one."
Zua " Then, how about we invite him on a dinner for thanks? This will reveal his noble etiquettes."
Webber" Excellent idea. I will talk with Captain Nib for this."
........
In central noble section, Vibe
Nib manor
In a study room, Baronet Febia Kua Nib was reading the report of what happened st night. She has a frown on her face. She put the papers on the table.
She has golden hair like her daughter. She was in a red gown.
Febia " So, you are saying that all of this happened without us knowing anything daughter?"
Heather" Yes, mother. If Daisuke Goto didn't helped us, we would be ashamed today."
Heather, her daughter was sitting across her on a sofa in her armour.
Febia" A foreign noble, who has come to our newly formed byrinth. I will talk to my contacts about Goto family. Meanwhile keep an eye on him."
Heather" He seems to have a good character. Such which are shared by knights. As for look out, currently he's sleeping in his tavern after a busy day in byrinth and a busy night."
Febia" WHAT?! IS IT TRUE?!"
Her eyes were widened.
Heather" The guard, who is keeping an eye on him on my order, has reported as such."
Febia" A high level explorer."
Heather" Webber has tasked me to bring him on a dinner in the future. When Daisuke is free."
Febia" A dinner is an excellent way to learn about any noble lineage."
Heather" I know and I will talk to him soon."
.........

After st night, I took a day off. Because I slept today. Plus...
Csses equipped: Explorer LV 6, Vilger LV 11, Hero LV 5, Thief LV 8, Swordsman LV 6, Farmer LV 5.
BPS:8
I went out after eating some leftovers from morning. As I was walking around....
Cling! Cng! Cling!
Daisuke " Swords."
I ran towards the direction and came across bandits. They were attacking Lady Yae in broad daylight? Knights and her battle sves were trying to protect her.
And Yae saw me. Well, she's useful for doing business. So, I moved forward and took out my sword. Reaching near a bandit...
Ssh!
I cut him into two.
Gasps!
People were astonished and more bandits came towards me.
Daisuke " Really guys."
I used bullet time skill and move passed them, sshing them. At that time, knights and sves were victorious too. Yae came towards me.
Yae" Daisuke. Thanks for helping me again."
Daisuke" It's okay."
Yae" I will love to thank you properly. Can you come to my pce for dinner tomorrow?"
Daisuke" A direct invitation."
Daisuke" I will be there."
With a faint smile.
Yae" Thanks for accepting my invitation."
I nodded and went back.
........
Early morning
I am heading towards the byrinth after breakfast. I hope, I get more today.
.......
Well, I had to raise a fg. I ended up in a monster room where 5 shining objects are summoning deers one after another I killed. My sword might be OP but I don't have infinite stamina.
So after killing few, I have started to destroy the objects. Only two are remaining...
WHOOSH!
Another deer was charging towards me with its piercing horns. I dodged the charge and sshed it. Then, I rushed towards the remaining objects and destroyed them.
After killing the st deer, I gathered the 23 skins and 14 limbs in my item boxes.
Csses equipped: Explorer LV 7, Vilger LV 12, Hero LV 6, Thief LV 9, Swordsman LV 7, Farmer LV 6.
My leveling is slower than before. But I have 16 BPS. What to choose, huh. I spent 4 BPS for herbalist css.
Daisuke " I think, it's enough for today."
