My Reflector Is Invincible 52

52. Stay Still

[Divine-class Weapon]

It was an object that God himself gave directly to humans, like a holy sword. It possessed a power that was one of a kind on the continent.

‘Numbered Artifacts, among them, only about 1 to 9, which are called Single Numbers, are similar.’

In the past, Joo-Heon had entrusted one of those items to each of his forr colleagues.

The [Naless God’s Shield] that he had given to the Knight King was also one of them.

Anyway, only one Divine-class Weapon could be possessed per person.

It wasn’t impossible to possess more than one, but there were various penalties.

‘If it’s entrusted to a diocre family, soone will definitely steal it or lose it.’

Even if it was a Divine-class Weapon, there was a possibility that it could be stolen even if it was kept in a bank.

However, it was different if it was entrusted to the colleagues of the warriors.

They were among the top ten most skilled people on the continent. With that level of skill, they could sufficiently protect the Divine-class Weapon.

Furthermore, they weren’t alone.

So of them were leaders of each race, so the entire horde ended up protecting the divine relic.

In any case, the divine relics were necessary for Jooyeon.

They were powerful just by themselves, but they were also needed to strengthen the Holy Sword. And the Holy Sword was necessary to finally face the Demon King.

‘So the bank should have those items even more.’

That was the mont when Jooyeon entered the bank.

Bam!

“……!”

Sothing brushed past Jooyeon.

His waist felt empty.

Jooyeon narrowed his brows.

‘A pickpocket.’

They said there were a lot of people coming in.

Hakken, who was quick-witted, imdiately figured out the pickpocket’s identity.

“Thief! Lord Jooyeon!”

Jooyeon imdiately realized what was missing.

‘The Demon’s Wing is gone.’

Indeed, the weight of the pouch on his waist was lighter.

Normally, it was a pouch connected to his subspace inventory. Moreover, because of the size of the wings, it wasn’t sothing that could normally be stolen.

However, Jooyeon imdiately figured out what had happened.

‘The pickpocket class’ exclusive skill, ＜Theft＞.’

It was a skill that randomly stole the most valuable item from the target’s possession.

In Jooyeon’s case, the rarest item he had on him right now had disappeared.

“The Demon’s Wing is gone.”

At those words, Hakken’s expression turned pale.

Wasn’t that a precious item that couldn’t be bought with money?

‘Out of everything, why did it have to be stolen……!’

However, there were so many people that it seed difficult to catch the culprit.

“We have to find it quickly……!”

“Hold on.”

“Yes? Why?”

Hakken was bewildered, but it didn’t matter.

Jooyeon had a smirk on his face.

‘Reflection.’

Of course, he didn’t just use Reflection.

While doing that, he also used ＜Defensive Stance＞, which he had learned from the Knight King.

[Defensive Stance is activated]

[Movent speed is decreased by 50% and defense is increased by 200%]

[Due to the effect of the defensive skill, ＜Reflection＞ becos even stronger]

In an instant, Jooyeon’s waist felt heavier.

[Reflection success!]

[＜Steal＞ is reversed]

The stolen wings returned.

But it wouldn’t be fun if it ended here.

‘Since it’s beco ＜Reflection＞, I wonder if I can ＜Steal＞ the bastard’s stuff too.’

So Joo-yeon didn’t tell Haken to catch the pickpocket.

Because she could ss with him even if she stayed still.

But sothing unexpected happened.

[Critical hit発生!]

[＜Reflection＞ effect amplified]

Critical hit amplified due to the defensive skill effect caused by ＜Defensive Posture＞.

From Noble mtl dot com

In an instant, an effect several tis that of ＜Steal＞ exploded.

Bam!

“Huh? What?”

Finally, a pickpocket fell from the void in front of the two.

“Eek!”

Joo-yeon was rarely flustered.

“Huh? Why is he here?”

“T, that’s right?”

At Haken’s voice, the pickpocket panicked and ran away again.

He disappeared into the bustling crowd in an instant.

But words floated before Joo-yeon’s eyes.

[＜Steal＞ successfully reflected.]

[Critical hit effect!]

[Demanding 30 tis the value of the item the target stole]

[The target currently does not have an item worth 30 tis the value of ＜Wings of the North Wind＞]

[Compensation not possible]

[Forced seizure will begin]

Forced seizure?

No, forced seizure for a technique that illegally steals other people’s belongings in the first place.

She didn’t even have ti to feel that sothing was strange.

Brrr.

Joo-yeon’s pocket vibrated strongly.

When she opened her pocket, the slave docunt she had taken from the chief’s safe floated up automatically.

And words were automatically engraved on the docunt.

[New Slave Contract]

[Subject: John]

[Slave status maintained until labor equivalent to 30 tis the value of ＜Wings of the North Wind＞ is provided]

[Compensation amount: 9 billion gold]

[Daily wage: Not set]

“……!”

This was a ridiculous contract.

However, Joo-Yeon knew exactly what to do at tis like this.

Swish, swish.

Joo-Yeon calmly wrote on the slave docunt.

[Daily wages: 1 Cooper]

Joo-Yeon estimated that the price of a material imbued with authority was about 100 million gold.

But it would be different if it was imbued with the authority of the ＜North Wind＞.

‘It’s an all-weather authority that allows not only for movent, but also for wide-area attacks.’

Joo-Yeon estimated that the value of [Wings of the North Wind] was about 300 million gold.

So, it ant that he would be paid 1 Cooper every day until he paid off 9 billion gold, which was 30 tis 300 million.

100 Coopers make 1 Silver. 100 Silvers make 1 Gold, so…

He would have to work for 9 quadrillion days.

At that mont, the pickpocket who had run away ca back in front of Joo-Yeon.

“Huh?? Why am I here again……”

It was because the slave contract was not over yet.

The contract appeared before the bastard.

Pickpocket John’s eyes popped out as soon as he checked the contents.

“No, this is absurd! You want to pay 9 billion gold!”

He was so shocked that his eyes were shaking.

However, the slave contract was a magic contract. A re pickpocket could not get rid of it.

“I don’t know! This sucks! You want to pay 9 billion for stealing just one thing! This is ridiculous!”

He just laid down.

He might as well have asked to be killed.

Or even sent to prison by the guards.

Haken agreed.

“Well… If I were to pay that, I’d end up as a slave in a coal mine. 9 billion gold is not just a na for a dog…”

“In the Duchy of Edr, pickpockets get their arms cut off?”

“W-well, even so. Wouldn’t it be better to have my arms cut off than to be a slave for 9 quadrillion days?”

If he was lucky, he might even die before that.

However, Joo-Yeon shook his head.

“That’s what you think. Then there’s nothing I can do.”

Pickpocket John’s head ca up.

He thought that Joo-Yeon would forgive him, since he was so lucky.

‘He’s not an idiot. What can I do when the other person is being a jerk?’

It was when John smiled sinisterly.

Joo-Yeon added more words to the slave docunt.

[Automatic death if compensation is not paid within 1 year]

“……!?”

It was a very grueso phrase.

The pickpocket asked, trembling.

“I… are you joking?”

“Have you ever seen anyone joke around with money?”

“No… how in the world am I supposed to pay back 9 billion gold in a year!”

“Why are you asking ? You’re the one who has to pay it back, so you figure it out.”

“……!”

John’s body shook as he complained.

He said that he simply pickpocketed a rich man who looked like he had a lot of money and now his life was ruined.

However, Joo-Heon was not such a bad guy.

“Oh, don’t worry. I’ll pay you a daily wage, and if you work hard, I’ll even give you a bonus.”

“Bonus… what?”

“Should we start with sothing easy?”

Joo-Heon raised his hand.

It was an item that had been bothering him since earlier.

[＜Theft＞ Activation Possible!]

[＜John＞’s Possessions Will Be Displayed]

It was one of the items he had in his possession.

It was a seal with a blackened hand drawn on it.

“Are you part of the Thieves Guild? Find the information I need. Then I’ll reduce your debt.”

“……!?”

He was dood.

John’s face froze.

He grabbed hold of Joo-Heon’s leg.

He was saying that there was no way a low-level punk like him could find good information.

Of course, Joo-Heon laughed at him.

“That’s funny. You have a normal job and a Thieves Guild seal, yet you’re a low-level punk? Stop with the nonsense and quickly bring that information.”

In this world, having a job was proof that you were special.

If he had been just a simple pickpocket, he wouldn’t have been able to steal Joo-Heon’s item.

‘A job user who can even use skills is a low-level punk?’

He was useful enough to receive recognition from the Thieves Guild.

So, of course, he had to be used.

“You know, you’re going to have to move quickly if you want to earn 9 billion gold in a year.”

“……!”

John disappeared in a hurry.

Hak-Jun was surprised at the sight.

“Are you really going to get information from that guy?”

No, but how do you even know that he’s capable?

He could just be a low-level punk with a job?

However, Joo-Heon already knew the question Hak-Jun was going to ask.

“Of course. He’s a guy who confidently pickpockets in the [Monarch of Knights]’s territory. He’ll find so pretty useful information.”

Moreover, the guy didn’t even ask who the lead was.

He had already known from the start who it was and had acted.

“By the way, it seems like the bandits are planning sothing. I won’t just let it slide.”

Joo-hyeon laughed sinisterly.

He had experienced things like this many tis in the ‘Valentino Saga’.

He never let those trying to use him get away with it easily.

‘By the way, Reflect is more useful than I thought.’

I didn’t expect it to activate even Criticals.

It was the first ti I knew that reflecting the Stealing skill would do that.

‘Well, I’ve never used Steal against a Demon King before.’

He was soone I had to kill from the start.

It was obvious since he had only used attack skills as soon as we t.

Thinking about it that way, ＜Steal＞ might be more useful than I thought.

There were many things I coveted among the items that Demon Kings or Demons possessed.

Of course, that wasn’t what was important right now.

“Huh? Where are you going?”

“I told you. I’m going to the bank.”

Joo-hyeon headed straight for the center of the Duke’s territory.

It was where the bank [Goblin’s Vault] was located.

Clang!

The bank was huge, but it was more deserted than he thought.

There were only goblins in suits and a few people who seed to be high-ranking nobles.

However, the goblins’ gazes were unusual.

“Another dirty peddler has co in.”

“Beggars who don’t even have money to deposit in the bank… Tsk.”

At their gestures, a guard in full body armor blocked the two people’s path.

“rchants are prohibited from entering here.”

“If you want to enter, pay the entrance fee.”

It was a voice filled with laughter along with a contemptuous gaze.

Joo-hyeon was taken aback.

“Entrance fee? The bank has an entrance fee?”

“Think of it as a fee for putting up with beggars like you coming and going.”

“The honorable people here are being charitable.”

He really was taken aback.

There was no way there would be an entrance fee in the first place.

They were telling Joo-hyeon to get lost right now.

Clank!

It started with a sharp spear being pointed at Joo-hyeon. He was a guard who didn’t even check if they were custors and just kicked them out.

“It seems like you need to be educated.”

“Educated?”

The goblins cackled.

“This is a goblin bank licensed by the state. Inside here, we can exercise our right to self-defense.”

“We won’t face any sanctions for killing the likes of you.”

The guards’ gazes turned fierce.

They were about to swing their spears at Joo-Heon and Haken.

But Joo-Heon calmly pushed the spears away.

“That’s only if I’m a re nobody like you said.”

“What?”

“If I’m a custor… won’t you guys end up writing resignation letters?”

“You’re joking, right? You think a guy like you could be a custor of the bank?”

“Watch . I’ll show you your futures from now on.”

Joo-Heon ignored the guards and walked inside.

The guards tried to stop him, but they flinched and backed away from the aura he emitted.

He soon reached the center of the bank. He was in front of a goblin who seed to be of the highest rank.

“Are you trying to find sothing in my vault?”

“Joking… It doesn’t seem like you are. Then, could you please write down your account number? I need it for verification.”

“Sure.”

Joo-Heon nonchalantly wrote down so numbers.

It was the number of his birthday, which had never changed for a long ti.

Then, laughter erupted around him.

“What’s with that account number… It looks like you’re pretending to have an account because you’re broke.”

“A bank account that costs hundreds of gold just for monthly maintenance… for that beggar? I’ll bet my store on it.”

“If you get caught lying like that, it won’t just end with you being kicked out. Inside a bank, you can be subject to imdiate judgnt.”

“Guards! What are you doing! Give those beggars a good beating!”

It was only for a mont.

The goblin manager’s eyes, who had received the account number, shook violently as if he had been shocked.

“Oh my god, this is the first ti an account has been opened in our bank… and it’s the founder of the bank’s…”

Suddenly, the bank shook as if an earthquake had struck.
