Chapter 77.1
In the treasure chest at the treasury of the 88th floor, we found the orichalcum great sword that Louise wanted.
With this, we had achieved our goal in this White Tower of Trials.
As expected, unlike the treasury on the 54th floor, that has already been explored once, cloth bags of gold and platinum coins were piled up like a mountain. Since we were at war, we needed all the funds we could get and we were grateful for it.
The prices have already skyrocketed so its going to be expensive but on our way back, Ill use this to buy some food and wagons to transport them. With that, I can fully harass the empires logistic corps.
The corpses of the dragons that appeared on the upper floors of the White Tower of Trials were also valuable resources and impressive loot.
Dragon corpses are high quality materials and we have whole corpses of them.
If he didnt leave, I would have shared at least some of the spoils with Archbishop Nicholas since he helped us.
Maa, Im sure hell just say he doesnt want any.
If he wanted my chastity, I would treat him as a snake so Id better not say too much.
The enemies have their own beliefs but that doesnt change the fact that this homo archbishop is an enemy to be defeated.
Takeru, its the end of the road, isnt it?
Yes, I think it is best for us to leave.
Seeing a mountain of gold, silver, and treasures, humans will tend to get greedy and climb higher and higher.
Even great people in history who are called heroes or braves are greedy people.
All wise men of the past have said that it is best to end things when you reach your goal.
Im going to follow their wisdom.
I wonder if Ill ever come back here.
While watching over the activities of the mercenaries who had begun to clear out, we descended to the 1st floor using the magic circle. I looked back at the entrance of the White Tower of Trials with a slightly dusky feeling.
Pervert hero, stop right there!
Ah, right, I still have to deal with her.
The Princess Knight Eleonora has come. Since our tower capture of the White Tower of Trials ended, shes essential to finish our business here.
Even if I saw well withdraw, it will take some time before a group with over 5 thousand can move.
Why, you bastard, you big bastard!
What are you even shouting about?
I dont even understand what shes saying anymore.
You put this collar on me, didnt you? Are you planning to make me your slave!
But it looks good on you, right?
I had completely forgotten that I had put a slave collar on Eleonora.
It was a gift of sarcasm. She should be able to dress up nicely and just stay in her castle in Lanct with that. She wouldnt be able to rampage in public if she had that but I guess she didnt like it.
So, it looks good on mewho are you kidding! I cant get this off! What did you do!
Yeah, theres a curse lock on that collar so you cant take it off in a normal way.
Uwaaaaa, I can no longer go home!
If you have this key, that lock in your collar will come off.
I waved the key in front of Eleonoras eyes and had her chase it.
The king of thieves, Wake, whos watching us, cracked down while holding his stomach and sayingAahhh, my stomach.
Wake really seems to like to play with the princess knight, doesnt he?
However, seeing the peanut gallery happy, I cant help but get a little carried away.
Eleonora, whos desperately trying to get the key from me, is certainly funny, so I toss and turn and tease her more.
I might look a little mean but this is a proper retaliation with everything she had done.
Come on, this way, this way.
Give me that!
Wake seemed to be taken aback by the princess knights struggle and finally burst out laughing while pointing at us. Arent you laughing a bit too much?
Ah, me standing around with the princess knight is like watching a slapstick comedy.
