Episode 98 Jaesin fell from the ceiling (4)
Page’s thinking came to a halt.
She kept rolling her eyes in embarrassment.
‘This isn’t it… ?!’
How did things end up like this?
As she had lived in the shadows on the Autumn Continent for nearly 20 years, she knew very well that the world was very harsh to the weak.
Therefore, they thought that as long as they wanted something from them, they had to go out strong to be safe.
But the situation took a turn she didn’t expect.
‘How on earth can you say what Kai said?!’
A voice flowing from empty space.
It was clearly interpreting Kai’s words.
It was clear that he was a real interpreter, as he accurately stated facts that only Kai and himself knew.
It was a ridiculous situation, but unfortunately, the current situation was not beneficial to her.
No, it was the worst.
Paige shouted urgently.
“Now, wait!”
But Lois didn’t listen to her.
“Fabro.”
“yes?”
“Hand that over to the security guard. “Because we don’t really need it.”
Lois gives a slight wink so that only Fabro can see it.
Fabro noticed right away.
‘You’re just trying to scare me.’
Favreau, who understood Lois’ intentions, walked towards Paige with long strides.
Lois’ additional command followed the moment Fabreau lifted the tightly bound Page over his shoulder.
“Oh, and while you’re passing it, pull out your tongue. “Don’t even let them talk about us.”
“that… “I will.”
Although he was a little embarrassed, Fabro quickly nodded.
On the other hand, Paige’s face was colored with contemplation at Lois’ cruel command.
She shouted again urgently.
“for a moment! wait… Wait! I’ll tell you everything too! “I know more than that damn weasel!”
Page shaking her bound body.
Lois paused slightly and raised her hand.
“Wait a minute, Pavero, stop.”
“yes.”
“Bring that back.”
At Lois’ command, Fabro placed the page in front of Lois again.
Slightly relieved, she looked up sadly at Lois.
“that… Confucius?”
Page’s tone had suddenly changed.
Even though she was young, she realized too late that Lois was the most powerful person in this space.
She said with an awkward smile.
“Well, ask anything. “I will answer sincerely!”
“Okay, we’re finally ready to talk. “What happened to the stolen secret message?”
“Of course I hid that.”
It was a calm voice.
But Lois’ eyes became sad when she heard this.
“really?”
A suspicious look in your eyes.
It was Page who became impatient with the sharp gaze.
“Now, wait a minute! It’s real! It’s real! “I hid it well, so if you let me out, I’ll bring it to you!”
“Hehe.”
Lois laughed.
‘Who does this know as a fanboy?’
Lois was too worn out to be fooled by such an obvious lie.
Lois jumped off the bed and approached Paige.
“indeed… “Would you like to check it out?”
“… yes?”
“Is what you said true or not?”
At the same time, Royce’s hand began to shine and a spiritual magic was spread towards the woman.
The mental attributes that Royce has learned are still only Tier 3.
s*xual methods such as obtaining confessions or strong brainwashing were currently impossible.
However, there was a sacred method that had a similar effect.
‘False detection.’
A look of urgency appeared on the woman’s face as she saw Lois using the Holy Technique.
“… “Dharma teacher?!”
She hastily raised her elemental power and tried to fight back.
But Royce’s technique was faster than that.

side-.
The red light from Lois’ hand moved to the woman.
The corner of Lois’ mouth curled up as she looked at Paige’s body shining red.
“From now on, I’m going to ask you questions.”
“… yes?”
“If you refuse to answer, I will hand you over to the guards. Of course, by making it impossible for them to speak again.”
“… … .”
“Also, if there are lies in your answers and you lie more than three times, I will hand you over to security.”
“What is that?!”
“I’ll think you understand. Okay then… First question. “Did you really hide the sad news?”
“Well, of course!”
As soon as those words were finished, the light on her body flickered.
The smile on Lois’s lips twisted coldly.
“You still don’t understand? “It was a lie from the beginning?”
“ah… … .”
“One opportunity was lost… “There are two left.”
At those words, Paige realized that the blinking of her body meant she was lying.
Page swallows dry saliva.
Lois continued to ask questions as she looked at the very nervous Paige.
“Where is Lord Samuel’s grave?”
Conflict appeared on Paige’s face.
Are you going to tell lies again and be handed over to the security?
Or do you just confess everything and choose safety?
After much deliberation, her choice was ‘safety’.
“… no.”
In response, the red light remained the same.
It was said to be the truth.
Lois asked back with doubt.
“No?”
“yes.”
“But why are the soldiers of Samuel’s territory chasing you?”
“… “Because I got caught on purpose.”
“You got caught on purpose?”
Paige nodded.
“why?”
“I had to make them believe that I had failed to steal.”
Once I decided to tell everything, it was easy from then on.
Page obediently began to tell the truth.
Lois touched her chin after seeing the red light without any change and knowing that everything was true.
‘You made them believe that you failed?’
At that moment, Lee Chae caught Lois’s eyes.
He realized that there was something behind this incident.
Lois quickly asked another question.
“Why did you enter Lord Samuel’s castle? “You didn’t go there to steal anything?”
“… “I did steal it.”
“Steal? what?”
“What I stole… … .”
Paige trailed off.
She is conflicted for a moment.
It was clear that he was contemplating whether to say this or not.
After much thought, a low voice came from her.
“… “It’s information.”
“information?”
The story was so unexpected that not only Lois but also Fabro, who was watching the situation, looked puzzled.
“What information?”
“Information about the stolen goods transaction that Lord Samuel is planning to conduct.”
The red light on Page’s body did not change.
This too was said to be true.
Lois showed interest in the unexpected fact.
“Tell me more.”
“Lord Samuel, who has the fastest trade route connecting the summer continent and the fall continent, the non-aircraft route, has been using it to run a dark merchant association.”
As soon as those words were finished, the interest on Lois’ face quickly cooled.
‘Hey, what is it… It was useless information.’
It had nothing to do with Lord Samuel whether he ran a black market or rebelled.
The schedule is to leave the fall continent and head to the summer continent in just a few days.
I didn’t know if I would stay longer on the fall continent, but I had already purchased a flight ticket, but I couldn’t change my schedule.
However, Lois’s expression changed when she heard Paige’s next words.
“Black trading is carried out by loading stolen goods onto commercial ships disguised as regular passenger ships. and… “Lord Samuel plans to trade a large amount of stolen goods with dark merchants on the Summer Continent through the airship departing in three days.”
“… … ?!”
A light flashed in Lois’ eyes.
‘what? If I do this, things will change?’
The situation was truly unfortunate.
An airship departing for the summer continent three days later.
that… … .
‘It’s an airship we should take, right?’
After all, that airship is an airship used for black trading stolen goods?
There’s stolen property there?
It’s like… … .
‘You’re so blatantly asking me to eat it!’
It felt like fate that I received this information before boarding the aircraft.
‘It’s a well-prepared table in front of you!’
Lois asked, quelling her boiling excitement.
‘You said it was stolen property, right?’
In other words, it was a dirty product.
Lois asked, her eyes shining.
“What exactly is stolen property?”
“A year ago, a ruin believed to be an old royal tomb was discovered in a small village called ‘Dopa’. By the time the excavation was completed… “A group of thieves came and swept away all the relics.”
“Is that Lord Samuel?”
“That band of thieves were mercenaries belonging to the Dark Chamber run by Lord Samuel. They are trying to sell the stolen goods they obtained in that way to the summer continent, not the fall continent. “It is safer to sell on the summer continent than on the fall continent.”
“hmm… .”
Lois nodded.
He had heard of Lord Samuel’s dark side, but it wasn’t something he particularly cared about.
No, it was actually good.
Because it can reduce your conscience even a little.
‘I am stealing again what Lord Samuel stole…’ .’
Lois asked with a smile.
“Is this information clear? “Where did you get this?”
“I can’t tell you the source of the information, but it’s solid information. I even saw it with my own eyes… … .”
“Ah, that’s how it happened.”
A calm voice came from Lois’ mouth as she nodded as if she understood something.
“So, sending the notice in the first place was a distraction. “They took advantage of their slack from guarding against secret information to obtain information about the stolen goods, and on their way out after achieving their goal, they were discovered on purpose to hide their true purpose from being discovered?”
“… … ?!”
“Well, if you had stolen something from there, they would have followed you persistently. “I guess the idea was to cut off the traces by leaving traces and pretending to have failed.”
“uh… … ?!”
Paige couldn’t keep her mouth shut, as if Lois’ words were correct.
Her eyes twitched.
Although he was telling the truth because he couldn’t overcome the threats, his judgment in reading the situation with only a few pieces of information he had given was surprising.
‘Where on earth did such a monster come from…’ … .’
A level of helplessness and judgment that is hard to believe at such a young age.
‘this… ‘Is it dangerous?’
Cold sweat ran down Paige’s back.
I had an ominous feeling that something had stuck in my nose.
At that moment, Lois’ voice flowed in.
“What type of stolen property?”
“Well, from what I’ve found, there are about 100 ancient artifacts… It seemed like it also contained some spirit medicine. “There was a rumor that several pieces were discovered during the excavation.”
Lois’ eyes brightened when she heard that there was an elixir.
“Elixir?! “Are you sure there is an elixir?”
“I’m not sure. Still, it wasn’t a rumor at all.”
Lois smiled with satisfaction.
‘Good.’
I still had some spare time because I got it on the continent last winter, but the more elixirs there were, the better, and the longer they stayed, the better.
Moreover, if it is a ruin that is presumed to be a royal tomb, the elixir contained within it would also be valuable.
Lois, who finished calculating, nodded.
“I heard your story well.”
“… “What are you going to do with me now?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you.”
Lois smiled and opened it.
“However, you will have to come with us for a while.”
“… yes?!”
It couldn’t be anything other than a sound like a thunderbolt.
She cried out pitifully.
“Why, why! “I told you everything!”
“That’s why it is like that.”
“yes?”
“Can you guarantee that you won’t tell someone else what you said today?”
“… … .”
Paige’s mouth fell shut.
Page’s eyes are full of anger, embarrassment, and wariness.
Lois scratched her cheek after seeing this.
‘hmm… ‘Have you whipped me too much?’
At this point, it was time to hand out the carrot.
he said with a smile.
“I have a suggestion.”
“Suggestion?”
“huh. “It’s not a particularly bad offer for you either.”
“… … .”
“Do you want to listen?
Lois’ eyes were smiling brightly.
