Chapter 41 Where are the gems

This is not good.

Karl has experienced this kind of mysterious incident twice, so he naturally knows what this suddenly closed door means.

No one has lubricated the door of this warehouse, so it is impossible for it to close silently.

Like Cyril, he knew that something was definitely wrong.

Karl turned back and looked at the maid. The guy was still sitting on the ground sobbing quietly, not paying attention to anything else at all.

"By the way, is it possible that someone discovered you while you were stealing the gems?"

Karl thought of something, so he asked again.

"I was just cleaning the house and saw the box where the gemstone was placed. I was obsessed with wealth. No one was around me at that time."

"How do you know where this gem is?"

"I heard it when I was chatting with the head maid Jolina. Later, when I was cleaning the master's room, I happened to see the box that was exactly the same as what the head maid said. I was really just confused for a moment!"

After saying this, the guy started crying again.

Carl had no choice but to leave when he saw this, and walked around the warehouse anxiously. There was no other exit here, because it was only used to store furniture, and there was not even a window on the wall.

"Is there no other place to get out of this warehouse?"

Karl reluctantly went to the maid and asked with the mentality of giving it a try.

"You can go out through the door."

The maid still had tears on her face and looked at Karl in confusion.

"If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't get out, I wouldn't have come to ask you this."

"Don't touch the door over there. It's very dangerous. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

After saying that, Karl ignored this guy and turned around to go back to the pile of furniture and start searching. Since he couldn't go out for the time being, he might as well look for it.

Maybe some rat or something took the gem away.

When Karl was checking the room, he suddenly heard an "ah" sound near the door.

what happened!

Karl immediately summoned the [Decapitating Blade] and cautiously approached the door.

As a result, when he came to the closed door, a spine-chilling scene occurred.

In front of the locked door, a skeleton wearing a maid uniform was seen scattered on the ground. Needless to say, this was the maid who was crying just now.

"Why did you ignore my warning?"

Karl was speechless. He obviously had good intentions, but the maid might have wanted to sneak out because she was afraid or wanted to flee in fear of crime.

As a result, when she opened the door, she lost her life without knowing anything.

Karl took a closer look and saw that except for the clothes, bones and hair on his body, all the flesh and blood on his body had completely disappeared, as if it had been eaten by wild beasts, leaving no residue at all.

Looking at the white bones in front of him, Karl also understood the danger of this thing.

As long as he touches this closed door, I'm afraid all the flesh and blood in his body will be taken away, and then he will become exactly like this guy.

Now there is no other way out of the room. Although he knows who stole the gems, the things disappeared for no reason. Carl is trapped here and falls into an embarrassing situation.

Now how to do?

I didn’t get the things and I was still trapped. I didn’t know what was happening to Cyril outside. There was also the guy who came over in a carriage that night and turned this manor into his own domain. Do I have to wait stupidly?

Wait, sit back and wait for death?

Of course not, Karl soon had an idea.

This is not a game or animation, where people would be trapped alive in a secret room like this.

Karl has an extraordinary weapon called [Decapitation Blade] in his hand!

Even if the gate is not destroyed for safety reasons, it is enough to dig a hole in the wall of the manor!

The walls here are genuine masonry structures, and it is completely impossible to stop Karl's violent destruction.

Just do what he said, recalling the location of this room, he quickly found the wall next to the corridor, raised the [Decapitating Blade] and stabbed it in. Sure enough, the effect of this weapon was still so outstanding, effortlessly

Pierced into the wall.

So Carl started his violent escape plan here against the wall and started working as a demolition office.

But Karl had just removed a few wall tiles when he heard a click from the other side.

This is the sound of the door lock opening!

Then he immediately heard footsteps entering the room little by little, constantly approaching him!

The maid had already said before that only she and the carpenter had the key to this warehouse, and there was absolutely no possibility that the owner of the manor would come here. Then the maid just died in front of him, and the carpenter was not even in the manor.

The visitor is not good!

It was definitely the guy who made the manor into a domain. He sensed the maid's death and came to check it out!

Now it was best not to have a head-on conflict with him. Thinking of this, Karl immediately got out of the small hole he took out.

After he crawled out of the hole, he planned to join Seliel first without any hesitation.

"Ahhh!"

But just after walking a short distance away, I heard a woman's scream coming from the cave behind me!

How is this going?

Besides him and the dead maid, there was another woman in the warehouse?

How is this going?

Without any time to think, Karl immediately left this dangerous place.

When he returned to the place he had agreed on on the second floor, Seriel was waiting for him in the room.

"How are you doing there?"

"I got the stuff, what about you?"

Karl shook his head and began to tell Celier about his experience. When he mentioned that he saw the maid having all her flesh and blood taken away, Celier spoke with sadness.

"I was in the same situation in the kitchen before. The door closed for no apparent reason. Fortunately, I didn't try to open the door, otherwise I might have been in big trouble."

"How did you escape from the kitchen in that case?"

If I tell you that I came out of a mouse hole, you will definitely continue to laugh at me, right?

Therefore, Seriel did not answer this question directly, but began to change the topic.

"These are all minor issues. When I was on the first floor, I found that the guests and the owner of the manor were still holding a banquet in the hall. What do you think?"

"After all, so many people are under house arrest, so it's not incomprehensible to hold a banquet as an apology."

"But now that the gem is gone, what should we do?" Cyril frowned, "How about we start with the imprisoned guests in this manor?"

"Maybe they will have gems that can be used?"

"Let me think about it again."

The possibility of stealing from the guests is also very low. Everyone is having a banquet. It is too difficult to steal jewelry from there. He is not a professional thief.

While he was thinking, Cyril suddenly spoke.
