"Brother, brother, I'm going to die from suffocation! When can I go out!" Rikka lay on the ground like an octopus, kicking Boom with her little feet.
In such a chaotic environment, it was obviously impossible for Boom to practice. He grabbed Rikka's foot and scratched it several times.
When Rikka saw this, she huddled up like a quail, but she stared at Boom through the seam of her hands. She seemed to be looking for an opportunity to pursue her.
"Tonight is the opening day of the underground auction house in the market area. If you can be obedient, we can go and have a look." Boom thought for a while and thought that Francis has been dead for more than half a month, so there should be nothing wrong with it.
Danger.
Boom has obtained those ancient magic scrolls from Rikka. Although they do not contain books on space magic, they are comprehensive in variety, which is suitable for a wandering mage like him who practices alone.
But the problem that followed was very serious. Thinking of what happened in Aogu City recently, it was inevitable that Boom would doubt the identity of the thief.
But this speculation eventually proved self-defeating. First of all, Rikka would never go to the Imperial Academy. Secondly, although she was powerful, she was not able to compete with the Divine Blessing Knight.
"It's true, it's true! Let's go cook now, finish eating early, and go out early." After hearing this, Rikka sat up immediately and walked to the corner of the Wonderful House.
Seeing this, Boom shook his head. It seemed that his personality had changed a lot during the time he spent with Rikka. Because if he had not stayed at home for two months, he would never have gone out.
But Rikka doesn't have this kind of patience. The day before yesterday, she almost threw her magic book into the charcoal fire, and yesterday she even tried to use the black wooden staff as a fire stick.
Under such "accidental" behavior, Boom had no choice but to agree to the other party's request to go out. But where to go, it was up to him.
After getting the ancient scrolls from the Imperial Library, Boom wanted to continue studying them painstakingly. But Rikka protested repeatedly, claiming that if there was no benefit, they would be burned.
This meal seemed very strange, because as far as Boom was concerned, no one had dinner in the afternoon. But Rikka's appetite was surprisingly good. After a while, he put down his knife and fork and stared at Boom expectantly.
Mu.
Under this scorching gaze, the beef in Boom's mouth felt like rubber and was difficult to swallow. So he had to put down the clay bowl and signaled the two of them to get ready to go out.
Throughout the afternoon, Boom was dragged by Rikka through Augu City, buying some bread and picking vegetables.
In the eyes of others, the two are like childhood sweethearts. The girl is enthusiastic and lively, while the boy is calm and sophisticated. Even in the hearts of some people with ill intentions, the two have become a model of blasphemy.
Time passed little by little, and the bells of the Master's Tower kept ringing. Today's work came to an end, and people rushed to their respective homes.
Of course, there are also thieves among them. They are just like fish drifting with the tide, showing their sharp knives when encountering similar ones, and turning over and leaving when they are about to hit the rocks.
The two sat on the wooden bench, looking at the crowded scene, each with their own feelings. Boom was confirming the figure of the criminal, which was a resonance between similar people.
Rikka, on the other hand, kept looking into the depths of the market area, or in other words, she was keeping the candle that heralded the opening of the underground auction house.
However, she didn't care about the items being auctioned tonight, and she had nothing to buy. In her opinion, it was a great thing to be able to go out, let alone with her brother.
She was really bored these days. She didn't kill that Francis herself, so she really couldn't figure out why her brother did this.
But she did not question Boom's judgment, because in her eyes, Boom was her god. As long as her brother said so, she would never hesitate even to assassinate King Ogu.
"What are you thinking about? It's time, let's go." Boom patted Rikka's little head and stood up first.
But Rikka, who was thinking wildly, was startled. The hand hidden in the sleeve even turned into a short blade. But after seeing clearly that it was Boom, she stuck out her tongue and quickly took the other person's arm. p>
The monthly underground auction has officially begun, and the owner of the market area, Eric, is here today. In this special period, he does not want to cause trouble, but he is helpless at the request of Finance Minister Frey.
Each auction item was either bought at a high price, or ended up as garbage that no one cares about. And the penultimate item was actually the ancient fire scroll that Boom had bought previously.
"Brother, isn't this what you have in your hand? Why did another book appear?" Rikka pulled Boom in confusion and asked in a low voice.
Boom was puzzled by this at first, but after thinking about it, he understood the problem. To put it bluntly, the owner of this ancient scroll printed countless copies.
"Hey, it seems that we paid too much for it, but that guy is really smart." Boom squeezed Rikka's little hand and told her not to meddle in her own business.
Rikka was indeed very angry at this time. She was not angry that Boom had spent a lot of extra gold coins, but that her brother had been deceived.
After a commotion, the ancient fire scroll was auctioned off at a "high price" of twenty gold coins. Boom just grinned at this, while Rikka almost kicked over the wooden chair in the front row.<
/p>
"Everyone, the last item today is extremely special. It is not an exaggeration to call it unique." The auctioneer cleared his throat and brought up a wooden box.
"The things inside are exactly the fragments of the Touch of Dream Shadow. The starting price is one hundred gold coins, and the price increases by thirty gold coins each time!" The auctioneer's words echoed in everyone's ears, causing the originally noisy scene to instantly cool down. Touch of Dream Shadow is a famous sword, but everyone knows that it has been destroyed by Lord Anthony. But even so, having the opportunity to touch a weapon of this level is a great blessing in life.
Two hundred gold coins, four hundred gold coins, five hundred gold coins, and the final price was set at seven hundred. But just when the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Boom called out a number that left everyone speechless.
Ten crystal coins!
In this world, currency is extremely simple and straightforward. One crystal coin is equivalent to 100 gold coins, one gold coin is equivalent to 100 silver coins, and one silver coin is equivalent to 100 copper coins.
In other words, the twenty crystal coins that Boom bid had already reached the high price of two thousand gold coins. This made the auctioneer drop the hammer directly, but he immediately ordered someone to invite Boom into the back cabinet. p>
He was very afraid, afraid that the other party was some big shot, and even more afraid that he would just talk nonsense and make random quotes. However, what he worried about did not happen, and it was only now that he put his heart back in his stomach. But he wanted to chat with Boom again.
By then, the other party had already walked away.
"Brother..." Liuhua held the wooden box in his hand, hesitant to speak.
"Huh? So you are still embarrassed. You originally earned this money. Since you need these fragments, just buy them." Boom quickly walked towards the black market while paying attention to the pedestrians around him.<
/p>
That night, under Boom's shocked eyes, Rikka swallowed up the fragments of the Dream Touch. Not long after, the short blades transformed into her hands suddenly appeared, and the already extremely sharp blade appeared out of thin air.
