After checking the list of supplies with Natasha, the three set off towards Rivet Town.

Along the way, Ciel and Bronya are scolding each other, and it's especially interesting to go back and forth.

Luo Bai was particularly fond of lilies in the past, and even now is no exception.

Therefore, he didn't talk much along the way, so that the two could increase their relationship.

It didn't take long for the town of Rivet to be in sight under the guidance of Cier.

"Here we are, this is Rivet Town... Alas, a familiar view..."

Ciel couldn't help but sigh.

"Let's go, try to keep your steps as light as possible. It's been a long time since I've been back, and I'm afraid there are a lot of monsters in there that we can't deal with.

She reminded with a frown.

"There's nothing to see here... Let's find a high spot and take a look. "

It's pretty tall there.

Luo Bai stretched out his hand and pointed to the bridge not far away, raising his hand to summon a portal in front of him.

"Go through my portal. "

Going through the portal saves a lot of effort and prevents monsters from detecting it.

Bronya and Ciel nodded and walked into the portal.

When I came out, I was already standing on the bridge, and I could see all kinds of buildings as far as I could see.

"Over there, the house on the hillside in the distance is Natasha's former orphanage.

Ciel held out her hand and looked into the distance.

"When Uncle Oleg picked me up, he sent me there. I spent most of my childhood in an orphanage.

"I really miss those carefree days when I was a child, and I really miss it now when I think about it...",

she couldn't help but sigh.

Bronya stared at the orphanage and didn't speak, much to Ciel's surprise.

"Why don't you speak? Are you dumb? Didn't you talk a lot before?" she

habitually complained.

"It's okay, I'm just... It feels familiar, so don't worry about me.

Bronya shook her head and said.

“... Kook.

Ciel said with a cut off.

"Look down and see those messy stalls? It's the market square in Rivettown, where Natasha's supplies are probably stacked. Watch out for the monsters and keep going.

With that, she continued to lead the way, with Bronya and Lobeth following closely behind.

They encountered various monsters along the way, but none of them bothered them.

"It's... Restaurant?"

Bronya asked, somewhat uncertain, as she passed by a badly damaged restaurant.

"If I remember correctly, it seems to be one of the best in town. Nata occasionally brings a child who is doing well over to improve the meal.

Ciel replied with a nod.

"Did she bring you here?"

Bronya asked again.

"Am I like that weird kid who behaves well? Of course not.

Ciel replied with a pout.

"I think so.

Bronya nodded in agreement, which immediately drew Ciel's displeasure.

Then, every time the two of them passed a building, they would have to slap like this for a while.

Luo Bai enjoyed listening to it incomparably, and he didn't suspect that the two were arguing at all.

If Danheng were here, it would probably be unbearable, right?

Along the way, Luo Bai saw all kinds of equipment, which was particularly well maintained by Pascal, and looked forward to people returning to this town.

Of course, Ciel and Bronya didn't know Pascal existed.

"There's a lot of boxes piled up over there, and they probably have what we're looking for.

Ciel looked around and noticed several Elder creatures around.

"Leave it to me. Luo

Bai didn't want to waste time on the monster and killed it instantly with the spear of Akong.

"Damn, why are they all empty?, do monsters still rummage through boxes?" "

Ciel walked over to the pile of crates and opened them, only to find them empty.

"The creatures of the Elder don't need human supplies, and they won't rob things like that... Courtesy.

Bronya agreed with Ciel's words, and was equally puzzled.

"You mean, someone got ahead of us? "

Ciel couldn't believe that someone would dare to enter such a dangerous place.

"It's just speculation – lo and behold, there's still a stampede on the ground over here.

Bronya held out her hand and pointed to the marks on the ground.

"The smell of the earth is still fresh, and the other party shouldn't have been gone for long.

Ciel picked up the dirt on the ground and sniffed it, analyzing it based on her own experience.

"Go, even if you turn the bazaar upside down, you have to find out the things. "

Not long after leaving, I met a little boy who seemed to be an acquaintance of Cier.

“... Eric?"

Ciel said in surprise.

"Hey, little ghost, why did you come to such a dangerous place by yourself?"

"Hey, Xi'er, you, can you control me, it doesn't matter where I go!" Eric

said stubbornly.

"It turns out that you hid all the supplies, no wonder I didn't find anything.

She noticed a pile of supplies behind Eric, tied up by Eric.

"But what are you going to do if we don't deal with the wandering monsters

?" "Who, who wants you to meddle in your business?" "I could have escaped right away, without the help of you adults!"

retorted Eric's duplicity.

"It's still so hard-mouthed, so tell me, how are you going to take away these large bundles of steel plates in front of so many monsters?"

said Xi'er with disdain.

"This, this—"

Eric was speechless.

"Alright, don't embarrass him.

Luo Bai smiled, lowered his head to look at the little boy, and asked softly in a soft tone.

"Can you share some supplies with my brother? My brother needs these supplies urgently.

"You don't have to be polite to him, this little ghost is a well-known thief.

Ciel first turned her head to look at Luo Bai, and then turned her head to look at Eric.

"If I'm not mistaken, your clothes were stolen from other kids, right?"

she said in a visibly rushed tone.

"That's—"

Eric understood that what Ciel said was the truth, and he couldn't say it for a long time.

"Besides, what do you want steel plates and gauze?

Ciel said very seriously.

“... Two hundred...... Two Hundred Winter Shields...",

Eric said after a moment of silence.

"Huh?"

Ciel was visibly stunned.

“... Did I hear me right? You still want to negotiate terms with us?"

"Two hundred Winter City shields are not much, but I don't have a wallet with me. "

Bronya was forcibly taken underground, and she didn't have time to bring her purse.

"Are you really going to give him money? I told you, it's his usual trick—"

Ciel hurriedly stopped him.

"It's not, it's not, this time it's different! I need money, because daddy he's..."

Eric didn't lie this time, he did need a sum of money, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the risk and ran here alone.

"Move your dad out as a shield again... If you let him know about the you're doing in private, you won't have a good fruit to eat.

Ciel retorted unceremoniously.

"Woo... As

a result, Eric cried directly after hearing this, lowering his head and sobbing quietly.

"Ciel!That's enough, don't say any more.

Bronya couldn't listen to it anymore, and scolded Ciel loudly, making Ciel very unhappy, but she didn't say anything to refute it.
