You call this a black hand?

Although he was moved by the emergence of some kind of "opportunity", Mellen was still a little hesitant at this time.

Because if he wanted to steal a house while those people were all out, he would need to use the boots he just got.

But Mellen hasn't worn the boots yet, so he's not sure how they work.

Of course, this is not the key point. We can’t be sure now. We will be able to determine it after some experiments.

The point is, he needs to wear these boots.

but……

In the rickety carriage, Meren opened the suitcase containing the Wandering God's Boots, lowered his head slightly, twitched his nose, and a look of disgust flashed across his face.

"The smell is too strong..."

What he said when he blackmailed Kevin before was not just an unfounded excuse.

The inside of these boots really stinks.

So much so that people like Meren, who is not mysophobic, can't get enough of it...

After a slight hesitation, Mellen took out his brochure and quill, and then wrote a sentence on it——

【Within one minute, my luck will greatly increase!】

There were only 4 gray fate points left, but Melen didn't pay attention to it. Instead, he raised his hand and clicked the green fate four times in a row.

[You have acquired the skill——Cleaning Spell (Mastery)]

…

[You have obtained the skill - Silent Spell (Mastery)]

…

[You have obtained the skill——Pocket (Mastery)]

…

[You have acquired the skill - Metal Item Enchantment (Mastery)]

…

At this point, there are 29 green points left.

After seeing the last enchanting skill, Meren stopped using it. Instead, he pointed the wand in his hand at the boots in the box and whispered softly.

“Smooth and clean as new.”

Under the dim moonlight outside the car window, an invisible influence was exerted.

The inside and outside of this pair of delicate boots began to have some tiny debris and dust, and even the gas was stripped away.

They rose and floated above the boots, gradually condensing into a smelly little ball, and finally fell to the ground beside their feet with a gurgling sound.

Correspondingly, the boots themselves have become brighter and no longer look old-fashioned.

After lowering his head and smelling it carefully to make sure that there was no longer any smell left, Meren took off the boots he was wearing with satisfaction and put on these magic boots with an exceptionally soft interior.

Then, he pointed the wand in his hand at the pair of boots that had been replaced.

This time, no spell was used. As an invisible force was exerted, the brown sheepskin boots that Meren was wearing instantly twisted and swelled.

In the blink of an eye, these boots magically turned into a fluffy-looking linen bag!

"It should be able to hold a lot of things." Mellen commented.

The ability called carry-on pocket is actually to convert some ordinary clothes into a big pocket, so that you can be in a hurry when you can't find similar things temporarily.

Mellen, who was about to commit his first burglary in his life, was lucky enough to acquire this skill, which seemed to indicate that his next actions would be fruitful.

However, he still did not officially start taking action. Instead, he conducted several channelings using the pamphlets he carried with him.

After collecting some scrap information and feeling that there was no problem, Mellen knocked on the carriage window and signaled the coachman to move his position.

This kind of taxi charges are calculated based on the duration, so the coachman is not afraid of Mellen's "change of orders from morning to night" and happily follows his wishes and heads towards Graham City in a certain direction.

However, when the carriage arrived at the door of the "Grossen Divination Club" that Mellen mentioned before in the night, the coachman discovered that the young man in the carriage had disappeared without knowing it!

Only a golden coin existed quietly on the original seat.

"This, this is a ghost..."

Before, there was no sound of opening the door or getting out of the car, but now there was no one in sight, so the coachman looked frightened.

Then he didn't dare to stay here anymore, hurriedly threw away the coin that was worth far more than the fare, and drove away in a hurry.

…

The newly obtained Silent Spell is very effective and can cover up the noises made by yourself and the target object.

However, when Mellen cast this magic, he never thought that he would be regarded as a ghost by the coachman.

Of course, he didn't have the time to think about such trivial matters.

As the moonlight above his head became colder and colder, Mellen had quietly arrived at the door of a children's welfare home that looked a bit eerie under the night sky.

Having lived in this city since childhood, he was very familiar with Graham City, and a long time ago, Mellen's parents in this life actually had the intention of adopting a sister for him.

So when Meren used the silk thread to see the scenery outside the enemy's window, he easily identified the approximate location——

It's inside this children's welfare home, or rather, an orphanage.

"So, if a large group of adults sneak into an orphanage, no one will notice anything unusual?"

Mellen was very surprised by this, but he was not here to be a detective, so he didn't think about it carefully.

After arriving nearby, he did not act in a hurry, but waited for a long time in a dark alley across the street from the orphanage.

Seeing two sneaky figures appearing from the corner of the street not far away, Meren thought about it and integrated his third hand into the boots under his feet.

In an instant, the colors of the world around me changed!

It's like a delicate oil painting suddenly seeping out a large amount of dye corresponding to the original color of the oil painting, making the world that should have a clear "composition" become blurry.

Architecture, vegetation, human body, natural environment...

Everything was distorted, and under the hazy perspective, some originally invisible glimmers of light appeared in the surroundings.

The distribution of these lights is messy and obviously contains artificial traces.

The most dazzling thing was the boots under Melen's feet, which emitted light like a small sun.

So he guessed that this might be the brilliance of magic.

It's not visible under normal conditions, but when using these Wandering God's Boots, it can be clearly seen.

It is simply an excellent tool for burglary and avoiding magic protection and traps!

However, before Mellen came, he had already conducted a brief experiment on these boots.

So now he was not emotionally affected by the changes around him. Seeing that the two sneaky people had climbed over the wall and entered the orphanage, Meren rushed over without hesitation.

His steps were very fast, as if he had broken his balance, causing the "dye" world around him to ripple.

But in the blink of an eye, Meren had already rushed to the outer wall of the orphanage, and then crashed into the thick and towering stone brick wall without any pause.

The next moment, his figure blended directly into the wall, leaving nothing behind except a ripple.

…

Things went well tonight.

When the two wizards who were thinking of betraying the organization sneaked back to the station during the ambush, and took advantage of the carelessness of a few left-behind personnel to launch a sneak attack, in the blink of an eye, they resolved the battle!

"Let me just say that the boss looks very calm, but in fact he is angry and overwhelmed by hatred."

When stepping over several dead bodies, one of the young wizards with short braids smiled and said to his companions: "He doesn't even think about it. Does he really think that everyone is as loyal to the nuns as he is?"

"What he has is not loyalty, but love."

The young wizard's companion was a middle-aged wizard with a hooked nose. After hearing this, he sneered: "I still don't understand how he, who has so many experts under the nun, dares to have such unrealistic ideas.

?”

"It's not unrealistic, I think the nun actually values ​​him very much."

The two of them walked in a hurry towards the "treasure house", but they did not waste time chatting.

In other words, they are using small talk to ease the pressure of betraying the organization.

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have assigned him the mission in Graham City. You understand, right? The nun pays special attention to this matter."

"If it weren't for the fact that Fort St. Grant couldn't get away, she might have been there in person."

"What's going on at Fort St. Grant?"

"How do I know this? But everyone says it may be related to what the lunatics from the Truth Sect want to do..."

The two of them were not far from the treasure house, and as they spoke, they had already arrived at their destination.

It was a very ordinary-looking silver-gray steel door, embedded at the end of a stone corridor. There was no light around it, and the darkness made the place look particularly deep.

"There are many magic traps here, we have to be careful next time."

The middle-aged wizard said cautiously.

But in fact, the two of them had already expected this——

After all, everyone has accumulated wealth for half a lifetime. Although I don't think it will be stolen, it is inevitable that there will be no protection here.

However, relying on the identity of the mole, they actually have some knowledge of the trap layout here.

In addition, the middle-aged wizard who was instigated by the young wizard is a good expert in magic circles and traps.

So although it took a little time, they finally stood in front of the iron gate successfully.

Then, they began to stop moving forward.

"There should be a trigger-type magic trap attached to this door."

After looking at it for a few times, the middle-aged wizard said: "Very strong, very powerful."

"Can't you crack it too?" the young wizard asked hurriedly.

"You need to use arithmetic, divination and logical communication." The middle-aged wizard answered.

"But I remember, don't you know these things?"

"It will be possible, but it may take a long time. What if the boss and the others come back during the period..."

"...You don't want me to leave here to keep an eye on you, do you?" Upon hearing this, the young wizard's eyes flashed with vigilance.

"I don't think it's necessary. The boss attaches great importance to this ambush and won't be able to come back in a short time."

"What if? What if the disguise we made before is seen through and the boss notices something is wrong?"

"Then can't you move faster?"

…

Are they fools?

While the two wizards were talking, Meren, who was "invisible", had already emerged from behind the wall carrying a bulging linen bag.

I heard the conversation between these two guys that seemed to be arguing, but was actually full of distrust, and I couldn't help but look at them in surprise.

It's really too long to think about wasting time on such an occasion.

If they can betray together, shouldn't the relationship between them be very good?

Why is there no such tacit understanding?

Or are the things in the treasure house really valuable?

While thinking deeply, Mellen was too lazy to continue listening to the argument between these two idiots who were destined to take the blame.

Turning around, he rushed directly from the side wall to a small square outside, then looked around and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the orphanage.

Things were going very smoothly before, and Mellen rushed into the treasure house without even encountering the slightest obstacle.

Then he put a bunch of sealed magic bags inside into the bag he was carrying.

During this period, he encountered many magic traps, but with these magical boots under his feet, Melen was able to ignore those traps as if they were nothing.

In other words, as long as there are gaps and loopholes between the traps, he can get through smoothly without being triggered at all.

"You can give away such awesome boots as soon as you ask for them. The Felix family is really rich..."

When he left the vicinity of the orphanage and stopped in a remote alley, this thought flashed through Mellen's mind unconsciously.

But then he didn't think about it, nor did he choose to untie the bag at his feet to check the harvest.

Instead, he took out the book of secret words and contacted his teacher.

He "accidentally" discovered the enemy's lair in Graham City, and after going in to plunder it, he certainly would not neglect to tell Mrs. Chelsea about it.

After all, these people were involved in her assassination.

At the same time, Mellen is also preparing to talk to the teacher about Arthur tonight.

However, in order to maintain his good image in the eyes of his wife, Mellen needs to artistically process his next words.

…

At the same time, Mrs. Chelsea is actually sending personnel to track down those fish that slipped through the net.
