“Isekai carrier visits a Kasbah”
[WAKE UP!]
I already almost grew used to this but it does not make it less irritating.
I made sure everybody is asleep and sneaked out of the camp. The town walls were well lit and there were guards everywhere. It is a tough nut to crack but if there are things I am great at, then it should be cracking the tough targets.
The Suisei, that guided the caravaneers here, was not recalled and landed nearby. Exactly for this kind of a situation.
I made my way to the other side of the town’s walls and only then sent in the bomber.
‘NEOOOOOW’
That was enough to cause a short opening where I slipped inside the town.
Under the cover of illusions, I managed to find the innermost part of the town, a fortress where I might find some useful information.
For a lot of time I found nothing but then I stuck my nose into the paveway, and in the corner of my eyesight I saw a hole in the wall. It was small but enough for me to squeeze through. Take that, fat b*s.
The first door I opened was an office of an important clerk. There were pricy things and pretty paintings.
I carefully burned out the frames of the pictures and hid the rolls below my kimono.
‘Click’
The door opened. I had no time to hide or use illusions so I just greeted the unexpected intruder with the naginata.
‘One wrong sound and I will turn you into a meat on a stick. Nod if you understood.’ The man that entered nodded.
‘What do you need…?’ He was smarter than the most.
‘Where did all those things come from?’ I pointed at the too-heavy pricy things.
‘From the tombs…’
Jackpot.
For a Town with a fort in its center its security is pretty lax and considering the condition of the wall (specially the part with the hole)then the whole fort might not hold up if they're attack by big monsters or bombed with magic by other Humans
Don't forget, it's Fuji. The one who can have the impossible things happen, as long as the luck agrees. I'd think this 'hole' in the wall would be so easy to spot that even if you were to look around the fort, you will fail to find it. It exists but you will need to crawl by the wall to have a chance to spot it.
@AFP_Writer so, our fo- kitsune changed into a lizard?
@Niimmaaa Cats are liquid. Foxes are not liquid. Demons are etherial. Kitsune are neither foxes nor cats. They are demons.
That is the only explanation on how Akagi sneaked into my quarters and stole Taihou's spare key.
Well, foxes can be semi-liquid, I guess? Give them a hole and they will use it. And Fuji is not a board only in comparison with a certain knight. Well, for loli hers are not that bad.
@AFP_Writer never passed on your head that akagi just melted the gears of the key hole
@yokai1235 Ok. Then explain to me why Taihou complained about lost key-that-she-was-never-supposed-to-have, and blamed Akagi.
@AFP_Writer simple remember who confiscated taiho key and who is her sister
