The Extra's Return

Chapter 39 Great Farewell (1)

?On the surface, I told Solemn to be a leader. I had him take over the position of the previous leader of the Black Box Organization who was now my puppet.

And then, I gave orders to the boss of the bald thugs to continue carrying out their criminal activities, including fulfilling the requests of the nobles who lead this territory. In another word, Baron Warwick.

"When you receive an order under the guise of a request from Baron Warwick to find me or even kill me, don't refuse it. Just pretend you agree to it, then take the money, and do the search as necessary."

Above his bald head, a light appeared indicating that he understood the reason why I gave such an order. I think even he knows that a criminal organization as big as the Black Box is still under the authority of the nobility in an unwritten manner.

"Alright, sir!"

With that, Solemn left the room. So, now only Anas and the children are left.

"Inventory!"

[Skill Inventory - Activated.]

Actually, before I brought Solemn and Anas here, I had already entered this room and placed most of the treasure chests into my inventory.

To that end, the few chests filled with money in this room were actually just leftovers that I left behind.

Anas was confused when I used the Skill Inventory, but considering he's a smart kid, he didn't say anything.

I took some magic items from the inventory. This is a magic item that came from the treasure chest of the Black Box Organization that I confiscated.

"Take a good look, I'll tell you what the function of these things is."

"What is this?"

"This is a magic item."

At first, he was surprised when he heard that the items I took out were magic items. But he soon took a good look.

The first magic item I want to explain to him is a dagger. This dagger has poison. And to further reassure him, rather than just giving him an explanation, I tried to prove the poison effect of the dagger.

I tested it by scratching my own hand. When the dagger grazed my hand, blood crawled out from within the scratch.

What came out was not only blood but also green poison. With the poison vapor also flowing out, Anas held his nose at the smell of the poison.

"Uh! Why did you cut your own hand? And, isn't that poison?"

He has good eyes because he can recognize the poison in the wound on my hand.

"Don't worry."

I don't have to worry because I already have the Poison Resistance skill. So even when I poison myself like this, I won't feel the effects of the poison.

And sure enough, as soon as the poison's effects started to creep through my body, before I was really affected, a system message informed me that the Poison Resistance skill had activated automatically.

[Poison Resistance - Activated.]

"This dagger has poison in it. So you have to be careful."

[Name: Snake Saliva Dagger

Level: Middle

Description: When you slash someone using this Dagger, the enemy is exposed to poison that can make them dizzy.]

Even though it's only Middle level, it can make the opponent feel dizzy. By making the opponent dizzy even with minor scratches, it can give him enough time to escape if he is in danger.

After Snake Saliva Dagger, and then, I explained the description of the other magic items.

A Magic Book. Magic Books could make a person learn a skill.

[Name: Skill Book - Dagger Wielder

Level: Middle

Description: A book that can grant you dagger mastery skills. Skill level depends on your understanding and Skill Book level.]

Maybe it's a little more valuable, but I actually feel that when I use the dagger, I'll also get that kind of skill with the help of the World System.

If there was no help from the World System, one would have to study diligently to be able to use the Skill Book. And for someone who doesn't have much free time like me, such a low-level skill book won't be of much use.

'There's nothing wrong with investing a little.'

"Take this."

I gave both of them to him.

"You can practice using these magic items, but don't let the rest of the Black Box Organization realize that you have these items, including Solemn. I'm sure you'll understand why I said that."

Heavily, he nodded at my words. In this world, only your own strength can rely on.

In the near future, I'm sure Solemn and the remaining members of the Black Box Organization won't do anything to the children for fear of me being behind them. But, one day, I believe that fear will go away.

Therefore, Anas, who understood what I meant, reluctantly accepted my gift.

When Anas received the magic items, drops of water began to flow from the corners of his eyes.

It was only natural for him to be moved, because in total, maybe all the magic items were worth hundreds of gold coins.

"I-is all of this true for me?"

"Yes."

"H-how can I repay all your kindness? Is there anything I can do?"

I've been waiting for such a question to come out of his mouth. Then I gave one more magic item. It was the Communication Crystal Ball.

"Actually, there's something you can do. I want you to gather all the information that exists within Ryam City. Within a certain period of time, use this Communication Crystal Ball to transmit that information."

His reaction was surprising.

After wiping the tears that fell down her cheeks, she gracefully rested her knees on the ground like a knight when in front of their Master.

"I don't know your true identity. However, I will perfectly engrave your presence in my head. That way, I will always recognize you and repay your kindness in the future."

An idea suddenly entered my mind when I saw Anas' serious face. The attitude he showed was very similar to someone of noble blood, but I immediately denied it.

The reason why I gave him magic items was because I knew that he could actually use Mana. Using the Hear of Everything Skill, I could feel the traces of Mana that were orderly within his body.

'Now, if I look seriously, his face doesn't look like a real man. Or should I call him a pretty boy?'

I immediately shook my mind to get rid of the dangerous idea in my head. That dangerous thought probably came because of the cry he let out.

"You are a man. So stop crying."

"Heh, who said boys can't cry."

"Up to you."

With this, I finished taking care of the Black Box Organization headquarters of the Ryam City Branch.

***

Outside the north gate of the Ryam city, a luxurious horse-drawn carriage was parked by the roadside. All around the carriage, soldiers were standing guard.

The soldiers who wore armor all over their bodies looked extremely intimidating.

There were even some road users breaking out in cold sweats when they were about to pass through the ranks of the soldiers.

Understandably, the horse-drawn carriage in the middle of the line of soldiers in full armor was a horse-drawn carriage belonging to a noble.

Yes, it was the horse carriage that would take Willa to Milestone Academy.

Inside the horse carriage, Willa and Daniel were sitting across from each other.

"Is it true that the bastard will come here?"

Daniel asked Willa, but Willa didn't answer right away. Willa acted like she was being bothered by something. Seeing Willa's behavior, Daniel couldn't help but knit his brows.

"Can you stop doing that?"

"What do you mean that I should stop? Aren't you the one who should stop acting weird like that?"

Daniel was angry when Willa said in a small voice that seemed to be telling Daniel.

But in reality, Willa didn't say that to Daniel, but to Callie who had been tickling her with a transparent form beside her.

"Ufufu, I think I'll stop bothering you now. Your brother is getting angry, you know."

Callie let out a laugh that only Willa could hear.

With Callie's distraction stopped, Willa immediately answered what Daniel kept asking. It was a question regarding the whereabouts of the Mesties.

"...Yes. Brother Mesties said he would come here to see me before I left."

After the question he asked was confirmed, Daniel let out a venomous smile.

How not, before he left the mansion, he had been given an assignment by his father, Baron Warwick, to capture the Mesties.

"Since your little sister is now able to study at Milestones Academy, I'm not expecting too much from you. So, before you go to Milestone Academy, make sure you catch Mesties."

That's what his father said. Luckily, he overheard Willa muttering that the Mesties would meet Willa in front of the north gate of the city.

This way, he could immediately capture Mesties and head to Milestone Academy.

'After I catch that brat, next is your turn!'

The dangerous thoughts that Daniel had in mind were directed at Willa. Not even just to Willa alone, but the radical thoughts he had also spread to his own father, who he felt underestimated him.

'After I finish you off, I'll get the wealth and titles I want.'

"Kukukuku!"

Daniel covered his mouth, preventing an evil laugh from escaping his mouth.
