Ten minutes later one of the men complained "That's enough now! Where is this idiot! Something must have happened."
Meanwhile, the other guy with red hair said "Hey Samwell, look over here, the owner of the shop is here. Just like we thought, the stupid shopkeeper lured us into his trap. But the shop must have been emptied already. Something must have gone wrong. What should we do? Should we go after Matt or kill the boss?" *(1)*
The red-haired man next to Samwell noticed Boden after looking around. Boden, ignoring the man's gaze, raised his glass and cheered towards him. Seven people entered while the man was still looking at Boden more seriously. These people were a group of hunters made up of Naser's friends. Seeing Boden, Naser laughed and called "Hey buddy. So you're here too? Why are you drinking alone? Come! Accompany us!" Boden got up from his seat and sat down at the wide table with Naser and his friends.
Boden knew two of the men next to Naser. The other four were different. Boden immediately asked "Chief, will these guys join the next hunt with us?"
"This time the hunt will be completely different, my friend" Naser laughed. "There is a pregnant Glizza Wolf at the soul-formation level. We are trying to arrange for the probable time that the wolf will give birth. Two of the friends are watching it. This time we are going to catch a baby Glizza Wolf. Makes at least ten thousand mana crystals. If we count it together with the corpse, it makes about thirteen thousand. We will be about thirty-five people. Your share will be two percent. "
Boden calculated with his hands and his eyes opened excitedly. "Woa, then there are two hundred and sixty for per man. My friend, this is Legen Darry."
The people with Naser laughed at Boden's reaction. Both thieves lost their interest in Boden, along with alcohol and laughter. Seeing the two men moving, Boden leaned over Naser's ear "Would you like to earn ten thousand more mana crystals?"
Naser's eyes opened wide. He nodded in agreement. Boden pointed with his eyes to the two men about to leave. Naser understood why Boden was in this bar. Boden was on a hunt.
Naser made two gestures with his hand, looking at the people next to him. They all drank their last sips and got up. They went after the two men who had previously moved.
Naser and Boden looked through the window in the direction the two men were going. The men were going over the boss of the potion shop. As they came and passed within five meters of the man, acting as a drunkard, Samwell attacked with three small energy knives and the red-haired man directly attacked with energy gloves in his hand.
A sharp axe suddenly appeared in the boss's hand. The gloved man jumped on the boss and tried to grab the axe. Meanwhile, the red-haired man's two fingers broke off, but he still grabbed the axe. When the shopkeeper was unable to withdraw his axe, he tried to stop the three blades that Samwell had thrown. The boss used his other arm as a shield. Two of the blades stuck in his arm, but the last one stuck under his belly.
The shopkeeper let go of his axe and took a short sword from his ring and inserted it into the red-haired man's heart. At the same time, Samwell threw two more small knives at the boss. Both knives entered his back. While the seriously injured boss was planning to kill the man who threw the knife, small needles shot out from Samwell and hit the man's eyes. The old shopkeeper lost sight and knives were stuck all over.
The other man died because a sword entered his heart. Samwell slid across the ground and passed without a sound to the boss's left. He lifted his knife, and just he was about to insert the knife into the boss's heart. However, he was struck with an arrow in the throat. It was too late when he realized what was happening. Eight people he drank together at the bar followed them.
'System Warning: One of the agents has been killed.
Number of agents remained: 7'
Naser, who killed the old man right there after Samwell, took the guns and rings of the three corpses on the ground. The group burned the corpses at the scene. There was a medallion among the ashes. Boden leaned over the medallion and said to Naser "I'll get this."
'System Information: The contents of the coin have been transferred to your system room.
'System Information: Your system room has reached twice the size.
'System Information: You have a medallion. You can invite a new agent.
The men lost their interest after looking at the medallion once. They returned to the bar together. After Naser looked at the contents of the rings, everyone looked at the content one by one. Naser was the first to speak.
"Dude, we will get ten percent and you will get 30 percent since you are the one who follows the business and brings it to the last point. But since I am the group leader, you will give me a quarter of your 30 percent. As a result, 22.5 percent goes to you, 17.5 percent to me, and 10 percent to others. Is there a problem?"
Boden shook his head negatively "No man, there is a problem. In addition to the deal, all drinks tonight will be from you!" Everyone laughed and shared the spoils. Boden had obtained four hundred Huk Pills, a thousand Bibi Elixir, and about four hundred Latus Solutions. Also, one of the rings was around 50 cubic meters and they gave the ring to Boden.
Apart from that, he won two thousand six hundred mana crystals and around twenty-three thousands of golds and around one-hundred thousands of silvers. Around a thousand healing medicines and poisonous pills were among the spoils. This was the revenue of the richest shop in the area.
Looking at Boden, Naser said "That man's shop is incredibly famous. Even if the ring with your loot is taken from other men, maybe someone can track it down. So, start using the ring after a few months, I think. If you wish, you can stay at the same inn with us. It's safe there. Behind this dead man is one of the powerful noble and founder families of this kingdom. There are at least a hundred men at the formation level within such well-established families. That's why this city will start to get a little messy in the future days. Prepare yourself."
When the group started to disintegrate after drinking for a few more hours, Boden said he would not join them and turned to the other side and left. His target was the house where the shopkeeper went. Boden, who sneaked into the house, encountered the naked body of the shopkeeper. Apparently, the shop assistant was doing very inappropriate things when he died. But before he died, he was able to deal a deadly blow to his killer. The woman was naked and hung from the wall with a spear in her belly.
The woman could still breathe but it was only a matter of time before she died. Boden covered his face with a black veil and came before the woman. He took the rings from the hands of the woman and the naked salesman on the ground. Boden, who felt hungry when he saw the table at the scene, couldn't resist and had a few snacks. Then he started to examine the rings he had collected today. He looked first at the ring of the first thief he killed.
There were hundreds of plants with mana. There were even basic medicine and elixir formulas on alchemy and pharmacology. The man who robbed the shop also found about 100 Huk pills in the shop. In addition, the man probably also had around 2000 mana crystals he had previously owned.
Finally, there was a black orb that he didn't understand. Black energy radiated from inside. When he took it, he felt like he was going to vomit and began to feel dizzy. He sighed 'So the darkness-force energy can have such an effect on the brightness-force energy.'
He put the thief's ring aside and looked at the shopkeeper's ring. Boden actually found ten thousand mana crystals in the shopkeeper's ring. The boss of the potion shop hadn't made a plan with the shopkeeper. Everything was improvised. When he saw about two thousand Huk Pills, he froze in surprise. "Rich! I have really struck it rich!" Panting, eyes gleaming, Boden talked to himself "The shopkeeper had really robbed the man. If I had not sensed at first that there was something strange in this fool's actions, I would be in real trouble."
Looking at the woman's ring, Boden found a lot of alcohol as well as lots of ladies' underwear. Of course, he was much happier when he saw the drinks. As he continued to look, he found a book with a method of mind enhancement, along with about two hundred mana crystals of the woman. According to the method in this book, the mind could be practiced up to 10 points. He was delighted to see that working for 1 hour a day increased intelligence by 0.1 points a week.
Boden took out one of the woman's drinks and filled the empty glass on the table. While drinking, he started to read the book. Three hours later he fully grasped what the book was saying and did it for an hour. It didn't seem like much had changed, but Boden kept sticking to the methodology outlined in the book and did not practice for more than an hour.
As Boden left the room, he sprayed the alcohol on the ground and set the entire room on fire. Boden hurried away from the scene. He went to a nearby inn and said he would rent it for two months. He wore clean, plain but quality clothes this time. He looked well-groomed. Therefor the rental fee was a little higher, but Boden didn't care too much. After pouring all the spoils of all the rings he found into his own 100 cubic meter ring, he hid the other rings in his ring.
*(1)* [Matt, Samwell, and the red-haired guy are in the same team. Little bit confusing. So I feel that I should indicate. Matt has been killed by Boden after plundered the shop.]
