Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 346

350. I Robbed the Demon God’s Warehouse

“I’ve only come to report on the contract details.”

“Oh my, ‘contract’ sounds so stiff!”

A bewitching smile that seemed to captivate people.

If he were an ordinary man, he would have been entranced by that smile, but Seun was just frustrated because he couldn’t read this woman’s thoughts.

The ‘eye for people’ he had developed from meeting many kinds of people was one of Seun’s greatest weapons.

He felt like this woman could read his thoughts, so he had no choice but to hide his expressions and conserve his words more than usual.

“It’s more of a favor than a contract! Can’t you grant a favor for a girl you like?”

“I wonder if this was also match-fixing.”

“Match-fixing? Everyone was happy when I gave them each a coin this time, since I was in a good mood!”

Would customers who came up to the 3rd floor be satisfied with just gold coins? No, the coins she said she gave out were probably platinum coins.

Saying she gave out ten million contribution points because she was in a good mood showed how abundant her finances were.

Even though the number of customers on the 3rd floor was small, there were still more than 10 rooms visible.

“More than that, it’s a shame!”

“A shame? You should have gotten first place as you wanted, right?”

“That wasn’t as impressive as I thought!”

“Then?”

“I wanted to see how good you really were, but you couldn’t even bring out half of your skills! That turtle, I didn’t know he’d be so useless!”

Seun frowned at her last words.

The last words of ‘Armor,’ his last opponent in the underground arena, came to mind.

‘Keuheok, keu, keuheoeok……. It hurts, I don’t want to fight…….’

A weak mindset compared to his huge size and strength.

It was hard to believe that he came to the underground arena to fight on his own.

He thought it was a little strange, but after hearing what she just said, he knew the identity of the *jjipjjipham* [찝찝함 – a Korean word for a lingering feeling of unease or찝찝함].

“That guy, you sent him.”

“Oh, I had to have some insurance! But if it wasn’t for that turtle, you wouldn’t have seen me use magic, would you?”

“Morbid taste.”

“Morbid taste? You should have seen how much that turtle wanted to get out of our cage.”

What was ‘our’ again?

Everything she said as if it were obvious was hard to keep up with… no, they were things he didn’t want to keep up with.

Seun sighed softly and spat out the main point.

“More than that, I kept the contract, so you should keep your promise too.”

“Me? Was there such a promise?”

“…….”

“I’m just kidding, relax your expression!”

She was laughing so much that she was even making chuckling sounds from inside the card.

Fortunately, she seemed to be trying to keep her promise, as she got up from her seat and opened the door.

“Come on, follow me! The view of Lilac Street from above is quite beautiful, you know?”

The way to the next floor wasn’t stairs or anything like that.

He simply came out into the hallway and held up a card with a lilac pattern, and the nearest wall opened, revealing a circular magic circle.

‘I didn’t sense any magical energy or secret space.’

The viewing seats in the underground arena on the 3rd floor, and the facility right in front of him, were things that Seun’s magic skills, which had reached the 7th Circle, or Seun’s detection abilities, which transcended the level of ordinary people, could not detect.

As if she had read Seun’s thoughts, Arcana smiled and spoke first.

“It’s been here since the beginning! Ah, the key wasn’t originally this. It looked like a key, but I didn’t like it, so I changed it.”

“You can just change it as you please?”

“I’m the owner now, what. Ah, even if you secretly come here and break the wall, you won’t be able to get out, so it’s useless!”

“I have no intention of doing that.”

“Liar.”

“…….”

“Just kidding! Your serious face is so cute that I keep teasing you, you know?”

His serious face is cute. Then should he not be serious now?

But he couldn’t just stand in front of her and laugh foolishly.

Even if he tried to maintain a poker face as much as possible, he felt like he was moving in the palm of her hand, so he didn’t feel good at all.

“This is a space that only appears when you have the key. Whether it’s on the 1st floor or the 2nd floor. Anywhere in the casino.”

Woong-

The magic circle was a form of space movement.

Considering that magic that deals with space and time is extremely high-circle magic, it could be predicted that the person who installed this magic circle was also a high-level magician.

“It’s smaller than I thought. Right?”

“Not really.”

“I can hear your breathing so close? This is my first time bringing a guest, so I didn’t even think about this!”

He didn’t know the exact time, but judging from her words, she must have reigned as the owner of the casino for a long time.

But it was her first time.

He wondered if it was a lie, but he couldn’t read her thoughts.

Rather, it seemed like his thoughts were being read.

“Oh my, how were you looking at me? It would be hard to find a girl as pure as me in Lilac!”

Pure my foot.

Even if Lilac was called the city of pleasure, the word pure could not be applied to her.

Besides, even though she looked like that, Seun guessed that she was at least 50 years old.

Before being pure, it didn’t even make sense to attach the word girl to her.

“Well, shall we go?”

He didn’t know what she had done while they were talking, but mana was circulating in the magic circle, emitting a bright light.

The opened wall closed, and he felt a similar sense of alienation to when he entered the auction house.

High-level teleportation magic.

It was an uncommon modifier, so he opened his eyes, trying to remember the form of the magic circle he had just seen in his head.

“Welcome to my private room!”

* * *

Private room.

He wondered what that word meant before he even opened his eyes, but he quickly found the answer.

“This is…….”

“It’s literally my private room! Oh my, is this your first time entering a room where a woman lives alone?”

It wasn’t a casino facility or anything like that.

As the word private space suggests, this was Arcana’s room.

Even if she lived alone and hadn’t invited anyone, he could tell just by looking at the large sofa and the bed covered in red lace in the distance.

‘The casino facilities only go up to the 3rd floor.’

The 4th floor was the residence of the casino owner. If so, there was a high possibility that the 5th floor and above was the place Seun was aiming for.

“If you stare so intently, even I’ll be a little embarrassed!”

Contrary to saying she was embarrassed, Arcana walked leisurely and sat on the sofa.

Whether she had prepared it in advance or not, a red wine and cheese snacks were placed on the table in front of the sofa.

“Instead of that, hurry up and sit here! Ah, do you perhaps like the seat next to me?”

Without reacting to her pointless provocation, he sat in the seat opposite her.

The crimson wine poured into the wine glass shimmered.

“This is a wine that you can’t even buy with money in Lilac! You won’t regret it if you try it!”

“Why did you invite me here?”

“Oh my, wasn’t it Wolfie who said he wanted to go upstairs?”

“I think you know that’s not what I meant.”

“You’re too stiff! You can be a little more comfortable. Ah, don’t worry, I didn’t put any poison in it.”

Whether it was poisoned or not, he had no intention of drinking the wine.

He could use mana to blow away the intoxication, but he didn’t want to be shaken even a little in front of her.

Since she was someone whose thoughts he couldn’t read, he had to be as alert as possible.

As Seun just stared at it, she chuckled as if it were another joke and continued.

“Actually, as soon as Wolfie left, my incompetent goddess spoke to me.”

“Nike?”

“Ah, Nike. That was her name. She said that this time was absolutely not allowed, and that I should get rid of you right away? It’s been a while since I’ve seen the goddess so flustered.”

“Did she tell you why?”

“She said you dropped the constellations of Olympus? Two of them.”

– The constellation, ‘The Crow Who Bows His Head,’ is greatly satisfied as he fiddles with ‘Pan’s Horn’ in his warehouse.

– The constellation, ‘The Serpent Surrounding Envy,’ defends you, saying that Triton deserved to die.

– The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince,’ drools as he recalls the taste of the two constellations.

It seemed that Nike had told Arcana everything about Seun when Seun visited the underground arena.

No, he even wondered if she had sent him down to the arena to hear that information.

“So what are you going to do? Are you going to get rid of me as that ‘incompetent goddess’ said?”

Seun’s hand naturally went to his sword.

He rotated the circle to deploy the shield and heated up his dantian [energy center] so that he could jump out at any moment.

He didn’t know her exact combat power in the current situation, but Seun felt that she was at least a high-ranker in the Tower.

It was more important to create distance than to fight here right away.

However, she was just looking at Seun and smiling as if he were cute.

“Not at all! I’ve become more interested in Wolfie, should I say?”

“Why?”

“Isn’t it obvious? In this stagnant and boring world, a player has emerged who has rebelled against the constellations.”

“Rebelled…….”

The expression that he had rebelled against the constellations was not accurate. Seun was only climbing the Tower and building up his strength to confront the Outer Gods.

However, since he couldn’t explain about the Outer Gods to her right now, Seun quietly nodded.

“The reason I settled in Lilac is also because of that? At least this place is less boring than other shelters.”

The city of pleasure, Lilac.

It was definitely a shelter that suited her well.

He hadn’t completely figured it out yet, but it didn’t seem like she could be fascinated by the conflicts between large guilds or the hardships of trials.

“I’ve become curious. What purpose do you have, what are you doing, what kind of steps will you take?”

“You’ll lose your power if you don’t follow the constellations’ words?”

“Oh my, are you worried about me? Thank you!”

“…….”

“There’s no need to worry. I’m not the one who’s going to be disappointed anyway. An incompetent goddess like her can leave if she wants. Even if our incompetent goddess leaves, if I’m by your side…….”

She pointed above Seun.

It was an empty ceiling with nothing, but he could vaguely understand what she meant.

– The constellation, ‘The Marquis of Fire,’ likes her.

– The constellation, ‘The Archer in Green,’ is confident that he can give her pleasures she has never experienced before if she follows him.

– The constellation, ‘The Ugly Duke of Poison,’ wags his tail, saying that she would get along well with him too.

– The constellation, ‘Blood-Soaked Claws,’ is interested, saying that if she combines with his authority, she might be able to dominate the Tower.

‘Is her unique skill seduction or something?’

The 72 Demon Kings, who were following Seun’s surroundings according to the Demon Gods, had begun to take an interest in her.

They weren’t main god-level, but the Demon Kings were all constellations with a status that couldn’t be compared to Pan or Triton.

Even the lower-ranking Demon Kings were unable to interfere due to their momentum.

It was no exaggeration to say that about 1/4 of the Demon Kings without contractors were showing interest.

It was impossible for a player’s unique skill to affect the constellations, but he couldn’t deny the fact that she had caught the eyes of the Demon Kings.

It was as if something invisible to Seun was visible to the Demon Kings.

‘I don’t know what her relationship with Nike is, but she definitely has nothing to be disappointed about.’

The goddess of luck, Nike.

She wasn’t a low-ranking constellation, but there were constellations among the Demon Kings watching her who had a stronger status than Nike.

He had a feeling that if Nike was watching this situation, she would be biting her nails.

“That doesn’t mean I’m going to blindly defend Wolfie. Before that, I want to observe what kind of person you are a little more.”

“That means…….”

“This upper floor. You said you wanted to reach the top of the casino, right?”

She picked up the wine glass.

The crimson wine flowed into her mouth through the wine glass.

“I want to watch your progress from there. If you promise not to hide any secrets from me, I’ll take you to the upper floor.”

Five cards covered her expression.
