Path of The Dragonborn

The old school building of the Kingis Royal College is located in the deep forest far away from the school. Unless students have special needs, few people there will come close. In fact, the Guerrilla Association has also received a long-term commission to regularly clean up the small monsters that occasionally entangled there.

Under this premise, a silver-haired young man shuttled between this old school building familiarly, which seemed very abrupt.

Heliga had long heard about this old school building during his stay in the college. Even among the students, a variety of unreliable rumors were born, such as haunting, the souls of ancient kings, the secret treasures of previous masters... Although very unreliable, many students are still willing to believe these things.

Of course, Heliga didn't come here because of this. In fact, there is something that has been bothering him these days and needs him to solve it.

It can't be said to be trouble, but-more or less, a little irritable about it.

The items that I put neatly in the room are always messed up somehow. Occasionally, some insignificant things are lost.

That's all, maybe one of Joshua and Hans was not careful, or had all kinds of strange hobbies-Heliga originally thought so. However, the same situation happened several days in a row, making him turn a blind eye to it. After confirming with Joshua and Hans that neither of them had similar behaviors, there was only one possibility-a fourth person had sneaked here several times. .

For some reason, Heilija suddenly remembered a strange commission that Joshua and Estir had received on the last day before they came to the academy. The candlestick that was the target was stolen, and instead of trying to remove the traces of his visit, the thief left a beautiful card with obscure words suggesting clues.

After that, the two people who ran through most of the city finally recovered the stolen goods and read a card that made people very uncomfortable.

No matter how you look at this kind of trickery, it seems that the same person did it.

Heliga didn't know why he didn't leave the small card for himself, maybe he was worried that Hans or Joshua would find it first. Heliga thought. However, he still placed one or two monitoring and feedback spells on his own things, so that if there is a disturbance, he can know it through magic spells.

Sure enough, at the first noon when the spell was set up, the expected card arrived as expected. Looking at the card that said, "If you care about my existence, please go to the forest where you lose your favor and find it out", Heliga couldn't laugh or cry.

————————————————————————————————

"What kind of boring idiot..." Heilijia was depressed as he walked on the old school campus where the road was covered with thick dust and the brick walls were peeling off. Although I am a little curious about that person, isn't it a good idea to come here alone?

Forget it, Estelle and Joshua have a rare opportunity to experience college life, not to mention the outstanding model students in the college such as Koros, it is impossible for them to delay their precious class time because of their own affairs. . Fei...he had the idea of ​​inviting, but after finding a picture of curling up comfortably in the sun on the roof, taking a nap with a smile on her face, Heliga, who couldn't bear to disturb, could only give it up.

"Nothing." Standing in the central building hall of the old school building, there was nothing around the dusty walls and ground.

Did you find the wrong one? No, it is unlikely. The only ones in the forest near the college are the old school buildings.

Have you been fooled? This is possible, but it stands to reason that this kind of person who is willing to play Esther and Joshua around should not be easy to find.

"Forget it, since you were so boring to send out invitations, I came so boring..." Heliga stretched, "Then play hide and seek."

There was no card, no obvious reminder, and Heliga found it in this large-scale building complex. A second before he was about to give up, a nearby brick wall that had begun to loosen attracted his attention. When I came closer, there was a dead sheep painted on the wall. The sheep were surrounded by bears, lions, and wolves. Under the second brick at the top, a delicate card is pressed.

"I found it. Let me take a look..." Heliga, who opened the card with interest, only glanced at it and his face was covered with black lines.

"Bears, lions and wolves take 2, 3 and 6 hours respectively to eat a sheep... If they eat together, how long will it take to eat..." Blue veins burst out from the forehead, "This is Sunday school. Arithmetic problems?"

Heliga fell into deep thought. It seems that the Sunday school teaches solutions to such problems? Suppose the weight of the sheep is 1...

and many more! Heliga was awakened suddenly, didn't he do it right in the other's arms? It's silly enough to play these strange puzzle games with this idiot, and I'm actually being circumvented in, wanting to really try to solve this puzzle!

Heliga punched the wall in annoyance. It doesn't matter if you don't smash it. With a fist, the originally loose wall suddenly burst into a hole for one person to pass through.

"Ah..." Heliga was startled. "This wall actually...Wait... This place was originally a staircase, and the wall was temporarily assembled?"

Immediately afterwards, there was a joy.

It seems that that person is waiting for himself here.

"Haha..." In the basement, a white-clothed and purple-haired man with a strange mask gave out a happy laugh: "Although it looks good to answer the question seriously, but it is really determined to cut the mess with a sharp knife. People are moving... don't you think?"

Gently stroking the soft middle and long hair, the man said to the teenager who appeared behind him without looking back.

"It looks like you're the one?" Helika moved slowly toward the man in front of him, "This is really a big man."

"Oh? Youth from the empire, do you know me?" the man said with interest.

"After all, you are a celebrity of the empire." Heilijia said sarcastically, "Weird Thief B." In fact, although many people, especially jewelry shop owners and great nobles, regard you as a plague to prevent and avoid, in fact, You still have many supporters among the people. "

"Huh, those vulgar ones." The male called Kaito B shook his head disdainfully. "They are just vulgar people disturbing themselves, and they think my behavior is very cool...no one of them can understand my nobleness. Awareness of beauty."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Heliga was frantically complaining, and you are the mediocre, extremely morbid talent, right.

"Fine, young boy..." "Ghost thief B" sighed softly, "You are still young, and you still can't understand this "beauty"... a teenager who is determined to hunger for his own knowledge, and who lost his family when he was young, The girl who grew up on the battlefield and the killing, the fact that she has no choice but to accept..."Although the person in front of her sounds casual, Heliga's face clearly changed drastically when she heard this.

That is, after the masked man that day, in just a few days, another person who knew the source of his "power" appeared. And he seems to know most of his own experiences, including the part in "West Wind" and Fei's story.

"I planned to leave you alone..." Heliga licked her lips and made a great alarm in her heart. To know this, that silver-haired man may have been a hunter, but the famous thief in front of him was far away. It's that simple to go up.

"I don't want to use force today. I rushed to war with others without being fully prepared. I couldn't win the victory calmly. On the contrary, it would violate my obsession with "beauty." "Guai Thief B has a relaxed tone, "Today, let's stop there. "

A strange magic circle suddenly floated under the strange thief, and his body was gradually disappearing in the light of the magic circle.

"Want to run?" Although he didn't know the principle, he was stealing countless people who had never been caught before. This must be his exclusive means of escape. Thinking of this, Heliga no longer hesitated, drew a knife with one hand, and rushed forward, regardless of the three or seven twenty-one, first cut a knife and then talk--

Cang! A crisp metal landing sounded behind him. Heliga immediately turned around and found a dagger falling on her shadow in the dim light. Other than that, there is no other impact. However, with such a delay, it was only half a second of free time, and the strange thief B had disappeared with the spinning colorful light.

"That's it for today. Helika-san." The strange thief B's ​​voice thought out of thin air in a small space, "I have a hunch that we will meet again in the near future."

"..." Looking at the empty hall of the old schoolhouse, Heliga was lost in thought.

"My power... Fei's matter... Silver-haired masked man... Monster Thief B..."

Why did these things that have almost never happened before, suddenly concentrated in a few days?

In addition, there has also been such a ridiculous attack on the orphanage...

All of this is not normal. If things become abnormal, it means that something is quietly changing. Judging from the existing signs, it does not seem to be a good thing.

"Fei..." In the darkness, the young man's whisper could not be heard except himself.

Inevitably, some conspiracy is brewing in a dark corner that is invisible.

Although I don’t know who planned this conspiracy, who executed it, and who the target was...but...

No matter what, Fei, I will protect you.

In the past, I didn't know the meaning of this power. I was afraid of the possible future and was unwilling to accept it.

But now, this goal and the future are already there. That is to protect you and myself, to protect our past, present, and future forever.

No matter who it is, don't even want to hurt the bond between us.

————————————————————————————————

"It's strange, you still have such a messy appearance." Deep in the forest, the two masked men who Heliga was thinking about were walking side by side.

"Haha... I didn't expect "Shadow Seam" to have no effect on the young man. It was a bit miscalculated and disrupted the process of transmission. This protection from "outside the world" is a bit too much, right? "

"Who knows?" The silver-haired man shrugged. "It's weird that the adult told us the information, but didn't let us take any action."

"Ha ha..." Kai thief B chuckled, "We are the executors, as long as we act according to our own will."

"That's what I said." The silver-haired man's complexion eased, "Next, let's exchange information."

"my pleasure."

P.S: It seems that someone has misunderstood the last meaning of the last chapter. The silver-haired figure is about the protagonist, not about others...

The purpose of this chapter is to give the thief a chance to show his face. After all, I will not write about his branch puzzle solving tasks alone in the future, and he will basically not reappear the content of the non-main line. So give him a chance to play. Above~

By the way, this chapter actually wrote 3K...
