C117: Magic, Science, and Tricks (2) Chapter sponsored by grandafrato. Thank you for your support. “What? Why is there no one here?” The suppression team, who entered Vault 2, could not hide their embarrassment as they looked at the empty interior. The instructions coming down through the crystal ball said that there was definitely a thief inside and he was diligently robbing valuables. But what about the sight in their eyes? There was no one and even the stored items were intact. They thought the thieves might be hiding somewhere, so they looked more carefully, but the results were the same. Feeling something strange, Old Guard lifted the crystal ball. “This is Old Guard. Security room, can you hear me?” [What’s going on?] “Now I’m in safe number two but there’s a problem. I can’t see the thieves.” [What? You can’t see them? What does that mean?] “It’s literally true. There are no thieves. Are you sure there’s an intruder?” [So...] [Hey! Move!] With a wild cry Ivan Luke took the crystal ball. [What are you talking about? I can’t believe you can’t see the thieves!] “Director? I mean, literally. Safe number two is clean, with no sign of anyone breaking in. “[What? What are you talking about? Even now, those thieves are robbing the safe!] “What? But we don’t see anything.” [Then, what is this that I’m looking at?] Ivan gritted his teeth at the sight that unfolded before his eyes. The scene reflected through the artifact screen was still the scene where thieves carried things through the hole they made in the wall. In addition, there was no sign of the black guards entering. “Are you sure you’re in the right place?” [What? Never mind. I’m sure we’re in safe number 2.] “Then why on earth.......” Why is what he sees here different from what they see in the vault? By this time Ivan Luke, too, had an intuition that something strange was going on. “Oh, oh? Director! Look at that!” At that moment, the subordinate was surprised and pointed to the screen. The scene where the thieves were busy robbing the safe No. 2 turned into a blur with the crackling sound, and suddenly disappeared and what was seen again was the black guards who went into Vault 2. Ivan’s head was at a loss at the sight. “What, what is this? Why? So what we just saw.......” The screen they were looking at was fake? No, but how? It was definitely the same as inside the safe, how did they make it? No, more than that, the artifact. How could they......? “Guards, what’s the situation?” [Everything is fine without any objects being stolen. There must have been some kind of mistake.......] “That’s not the problem now!” [What can we do? The items in Vault 3 are being moved to a safe place by the other team, so should we bring them back to their original place?] “That....” Ivan pondered and concluded. “No. Just in case, take care of the items in Vault 3 according to the original instructions.” [Yes, I see. The guards just got on the elevator with the goods.] “I got it.” The communication was cut off. Ivan and the security guards still felt like dreaming. It was hard for them to judge how this happened. “No way. Did we just fall for a video?” Someone said so cautiously. “What?” “Isn’t that it? Isn’t the artifact showing the scenes in the vaults on these screens?” “......Keep talking.” “So in the middle of that, someone might have stepped in and changed the images.” “Hmm?” “Yes. Someone interfered in the process of transferring the image taken by the Artifact to this screen and made it look completely different. Let me show you a record I took in advance.” “No way.” “I think someone changed the images to make us think Vault 2 was robbed.” “......Then why? Even if they do that, they won’t be able to steal anything and they’ll be caught in no time.” It didn’t matter how they did it since Vault 2 was safe but in that case why have they done it? “Well, I don’t know.......” Ivan clicked his tongue as he watched the guard answer in a cold sweat. At that time, his aide, who was watching the incident, shouted as if something had suddenly come to mind. “No way!” “What? What happened?” “Vault 3! Director! It’s Vault 3!” “What? What does that mean?” He didn’t feel much when he was with Rudger, but moving with the others made him realize his weak spots. The door of the lift that arrived on the ground opened and the four people took out all the objects and the fallen guards into the hallway. “Well, that’s the last step.” Alex lifted the spear and thrust it towards the key mechanism inside the elevator. [Crack!] As it is a sophisticated machine-powered object, nothing is more fatal than being hit in the key components. [Rumble!] The elevator crashed underground. [Aww–!!!] * * * “The elevator it’s broken? That’s why I can’t come up......?” Upon hearing the news, Ivan Luke looked as if his soul was going to come out of his mouth. “What do we do now, director?” “Is there no one outside?” “There are but most of the Blackguard’s went underground.......” He didn’t expect they would break the elevator and isolate people inside the basement and it was due to the fact that there was only one entrance to the basement. “Should we inform the guest of this first? Or should we call the Leathervelk Police Department?” “No! If we do this the auction will be ruined.” “What should I do?” “I don’t know! I don’t know either!” Ivan had no choice but to shout like that since he couldn’t make a proper decision on how to deal with the situation. ‘Where the hell did it go wrong?’ He was in a bad situation since he had to handle the internal problems carefully so that the guests wouldn’t find out. “I, I’m screwed. If my father finds out about this.......” The aide, who judged Ivan’s condition was bad, gave instructions instead. “You guys move! Get all the security team members together! We’re going to stop them!” “Yes!” It was the moment when security guards in the security room stood up and tried to go outside. “The door won’t open!” “What? What are you talking about?” [Knock Knock Knock Knock!] The guards pushed the door hard, but the door of the security room did not open. No matter how much they grabbed the doorknob and turned it, the door did not open as if something was blocking it at the entrance. “Damn it! What’s going on?” Seridan giggled when she heard screams coming from inside the security room. She looked proudly as she hung several hinges of metal in the door. “They’re all in there like fools, so they’re asking to be locked up.” Seridan walked down the hall, snorting. ‘The invention I made seems to have worked.’ Communication hacking equipment was something Rudger asked her to make in order to deal with the artifact that surveyed the vaults. ‘They didn’t expect we would change the video in the middle so that the display would show a completely different scene.’ For that purpose, Alex went into the vaults while hiding his identity and saw the entire interior composition with his eyes. It was something that ordinary people could never do. Hans, who got the design and noticed the internal condition, Alex, who memorized everything he saw with his eyes and Rudger, who devised all these operations. ‘As expected, Nari is incredible.’ Meeting him in an underground mine in the Kingdom of Delica may have been a big turning point in her life. No, she was sure it was. “Ah, sir, can you hear me? This is Wells.” After exiting the large hall, she looked at the scene inside the auction house, which was more cluttered than before, and sent Rudger a message while her gaze was on 4 Blackguards that were carrying valuables. “Operations. Success.” [I see. You all worked hard.] * * * After completing the communication, Rudger glanced at the back of the auction house. The big duo, who were waiting to monitor him, suddenly left in a hurry. ‘You must be on fire because you heard the news of the robbery.’ “Hans, can you hear me?” [Hey, brother. What’s up?] “Where’s the item?” [I got it all. Nothing left.] “What did you say?” [I knew it, so I took it out in advance. Wait a minute, I’ll go get my clothes changed.] “Yeah, this communicator is running out of time, so let’s meet and talk about the rest.” The sound was suddenly cut off because the time limit of the portable communication device was over. The timing was as if it had been measured with a ruler. Rudger, who no longer felt the need to be in the auction house, rose from his seat. There was nothing good about staying longer but at that moment a huge explosion swept the area on one side of the auction house. A hazy dust broke out, and the host who was conducting the auction was swept away and collapsed. Rudger frowned at the sight. ‘What is this all of a sudden?’
