Chapter 75 – The Magic City and the Great Detective
“There is still a counterattack left in the jewelry room, so aim for that time!”
“You’re right..!!”
After saying that, the two started moving to the jewelry room together as the time approached.
“Are you here! Detective Charlotte!!”
When her Charlotte arrives, Inspector Lest Lass greets her warmly.
“Yes! Inspector Lestras! How are the boundaries?”
“Thorough! As you can see, we have mobilized all the guards and put in all shift workers. That’s why we have now deployed 10 people in each hallway, and as you can see, 60 people, twice as many as before, have been deployed in the exhibition room with jewels. It’s done!”
“Ohh…”
“As you can see, the thief will never be able to capture the ‘Eye of Delon’ as there is not enough room to step on, let alone break in!”
Inspector Lestras proudly showing off his alert state.
‘At best, he’s just a private detective with a mediocre career, so is there a need for flattery like that…?’
Seong-il is taken aback by Inspector Lestras’ appearance as if he is reporting the operation to the division commander.
Whether or not she knew what he was thinking, Charlotte nodded her head in congratulations at the Inspector’s report.
“As expected! It’s like Inspector Lestras of the Metropolitan Police Department, which the city of Wyndham is proud of!!”
“Ha ha! Thank you!!”
‘…What kind of person is he, is he congratulating me? And Captain, why do you like to hear that?’
In the world of 『The Magic City and the Detective』, Seong-il feels that his common sense is gradually breaking down.
He sighed quietly inwardly, and then, without a word, began to stand guard.
‘Could it be that Euphthesia will not betray me and strike me in the back…?’
In preparation for her possible betrayal, Seong-il starts to be vigilant while maximizing his “Reaction”.
As the promised time written in the notice approached, not only the castle, but all the surrounding policemen became very tense and took out their magic wands and began to arm themselves.
‘Oh… That’s a magic wand!!’
Contrary to the world of magic that we generally know, in the world of 『The Magic City and the Detective』, It was more common for wizards to live using mass-produced magic tools rather than chanting magic directly.
It feels like an industrialized wizarding world.
Seong-il thought while looking at the police officers’ equipment that gave off that feeling.
‘Hmm… It would be very helpful if I brought a wand or protective robe like that to another world later, right?’
‘Even if I don’t have to use it, putting it on Elisha or Pirina will help them defend against surprise attacks.’
That moment when Seong-il is looking at the goods and making plans.
“It’s an intruder!!!”
A policeman’s cry and his gestures.
Officers looking in the direction pointed out by his gestures collectively.
Indeed, in the direction of the ceiling pointed out by the officer, there was a woman wearing a tight leather outfit and boasting a voluminous body.
“Everyone! Impact wand fire started!!”
Upon seeing her, Inspector Lest Lass orders her to fire!
As soon as the officers heard his order, they started shooting in batches using shock magic wands.
Papapang!!
‘Wow.. It looks like a helicopter and a wizard’s first birthday party…?’
When a scene like a magic use scene in a famous magic movie unfolded before his eyes, Seong-il exclaimed exclamation involuntarily and was moved.
And, as if not to disappoint the impression, the power of magic that shatters intruders.
‘Couldn’t it…Because it’s really real, Yuptesia won’t die in vain?’
Seeing how Euphthesia, who might be her own woman and partner, was shattered in an instant, she thought with concern in her heart.
At that time.
“Oh…? Can you catch me by doing that?”
Thin but bewitching voice The protagonist’s mocking tone.
“Uh?!”
The officers panicked when the phantom thief was standing on the other side of their magic. And.
“Is that really real?”
This time, a voice came out of a completely unrelated place.
“Isn’t it? Am I real?”
Voices popped out from five or six places in an instant.
“What… What is it?! Is it clone magic?”
‘It’s an automata.’
Creation of a unique arcane technology automata that can only be used by the thief Euphthesia.
While robbing the ruins of the Mado civilization, which was destroyed by the ancient Mado war, she accidentally obtains an artifact mask that enables the production of puppet dolls, which are now in practice.
To be precise, rather than a recipe, after making a unique mana-infused jewel using a magic mask, inserting the jewel into an ordinary wooden doll, and using the spell cast on the ancient magic mask worn, it transforms into a controllable automata…
In any case, the magic of creating automata was a powerful skill unique to Euphthesia, and she enjoyed using this skill to create deception tactics.
However, as with any skill of this kind, exposing her skills to her foes halves her effectiveness, so she desperately avoids exposing her own skills, occasionally using her automata magic only for deceit to trick enemies. But…
When the vigilance was strict like today, and the problem of keeping the promise to her holy day occurred, Euphthesia took her heart and prepared to expose her own magic and openly used her automata.
The problem is that the officers who first encountered the automata without knowing such a situation were shocked and started to fall into confusion.
“Damn it!! Shoot first! Shoot whatever you want!! Kill them all and the problem will end!!”
Inspector Lestras goes berserk at the unimaginable occurrence of a variable.
At his command, the officers started casting magic at random.
Shock spells that bomb buildings mercilessly.
In the end, the Duke of Aback couldn’t stand it and cried out.
“This crazy!! Are you going to destroy all the buildings and treasures?!”
“Ah!! Stop shooting!! Stop shooting!!”
Inspector Lestrace is puzzled by Duke Aback’s words.
He eventually regained his composure at Duke Aback’s screams and shouted to stop firing, and the officers gradually stopped casting magic and began lowering their wands to the floor.
“Have you done it?!”
And the magic word like a ghost that jumped out.
It wasn’t long before the word came out and the dust of the shock magic settled, and the shattered automata of Euphthesia entered their eyes.
Tuuk
The automata of Euptesia, clad in leather, began to fall from the ceiling to the floor one by one when the magic stopped.
“Whoa… You’ve done it.”
‘Looking at that word protruding, it must be 100% fake.’
And…
Hey hey profit!!
“What… What?!”
“Gas!! Gas!! Everyone hold your breath!!”
White smoke billowing from the smashed automata.
‘Crazy!!’
Embarrassed, Seong-il quickly covered his mouth with the hem of his clothes and held his breath. Soon after, the exhibition room was filled with smoke.
Clink!
“Defend the jewel!!”
The sound of a glass jewelry box shattering in the middle of the exhibition room. Hearing that, Inspector Lestras started yelling, not paying attention to the gas inhalation.
“Oh, is it already late?”
And a woman’s voice that sounds nasty.
“This… This Sorin?”
There was not a single person in this large exhibition room who would not know who the protagonist of the voice would be.
“Damn it! Inspector! Shall we shoot?”
“Are you crazy?! You’re going to take responsibility if Duke Aback gets hurt while firing at random in such a blinded state!?”
“Ah…”
“Shut up and grab the things you can find around you!! Grab them and see!!”
Then, the scene of an abysmal battle unfolds.
‘Crazy!!’
Even Seong-il was taken aback by the police officers, so Seong-il shouted.
“I’m not a thief you bastards!!”
Nevertheless, the movements of a police officer who persistently held on to himself.
Seong-Il, who was incensed by his body movements, maximized his inner strength and struck the officer’s torso with his fists.
Awesome!!
No matter how hardened he is, he is a strong adult male police officer, but the power of Seongil’s punches, which has been training martial arts while building up his inner strength at high speed for almost half a year, has long since transcended human realm.
“Cuck!”
Is it like this feeling when a gorilla punches with all its might? The officer began to fly backwards, feeling that he had been hit directly with an iron club.
“Oh…!”
Seong-il unknowingly beats the police officer in the heat of the moment.
‘Fuck you? He’s not dead, right?’
Seong-il never thought that he would exert such a powerful power because he had rarely shown his power to ordinary people.
When Seongil was so flustered, someone whispered in his ear.
“Let’s start soon? Colleague?”
“Oh!?”
A police officer runs to Charlotte, ignoring Seong-il, who is taken aback by a sudden whisper.
Fuck!
The policeman who was running like that tried to hit the body of Charlotte who was standing in a daze.
“Kyaaang!! It hurts!”
Charlotte wails in pain in the smoke.
After sneaking ‘Dellon’s Eye’ into Charlotte’s arms, the officer fires a wire gun at her air vent, connects the rope, and flies up to break the spell on her clothes.
“Damn it!! How dare you get in my way?!”
The voice of a phantom thief bursts out of nowhere from the ceiling.
The officers stopped beating each other and involuntarily looked at the ceiling.
“You! There! Stupid-looking blonde bun-haired bitch! Who the hell are you!!”
Euphthesia pointed out Charlotte sarcastically.
“Huh…? Me…?”
“Yes you! How dare you hit me and steal my jewels? I will never forget this grudge! My name is Yuftesia the Phantom Thief! Who are you!”
“Uh…? I… I’m Charlotte Moriarty…”
“Moriarty? Are you a descendant of that great detective?! Indeed!! I will not forget today’s shame! Let’s see!!”
After saying that, Euphthesia quickly disappears through the vent.
From Seong-il’s point of view, who knew all the plans, it was a very clumsy and loopy scene, but once the chaotic situation was settled, he started shouting loudly to help escape from Euptasia.
“Detective Charlotte Moriarty stopped stealing the ‘Eye of Delon’ from the phantom thief Euphthesia!!!!!!”
“What!?”
“Really!!”
“It’s not fake!?”
A murmur heard from all sides of the army.
Breaking through the murmur, Duke Aback ran to Charlotte.
“Come on! Give me that ‘Eye of Delon’!!”
Duke Aback’s urgent cry.
Charlotte was overpowered by that spirit and unknowingly passed her jewels to him, unaware of whether he was the real Duke of Aback.
“Ji… It’s real!! It’s real!! I stopped stealing jewels!!!”
The Duke of Aback is excited to find out that the jewel is real.
“Wow!!!!!”
“Thank you! Lady Moriarty!! Indeed, my father was so intelligent…!! You protected our heirloom!! You are truly a treasure trove!!!”
Inspector Lestras approached them before they knew it.
“Thank you! Young lady-nim… No, Detective-nim!! Thanks to Detective-nim, we completed our mission. Hey! What are you all doing!? Without shouting Detective-nim’s name!!”
‘Fuck Inspector Lestras, do you see that bastard is good at politics?’
Seong-Il is full of spirit at the flattery of Inspector Lestras.
Ignoring the absurdity of such a holy day, shouts began to erupt from all directions.
“Charlotte! Charlotte! Charlotte! Charlotte! Charlotte! Charlotte!”
“Waaaaa!!”
Charlotte stood in a daze at their cheers, and her face immediately became hot and she looked like she was in an orgasm. She started screaming.
“Ohhhhh!!!!!!! Justice wins! Doesn’t it? Everyone? Ohhhhh!!!!”
“Waaaaa!!!!”
Seong-il looks at them absurdly.
‘Crazy bastards…’
Whatever the truth The theft of notice by the phantom thief Euphthesia was blocked. The main character was detective Charlotte Moriarty.
And the next day.
Charlotte and Seong-il return to the detective’s office after receiving a warm welcome from the Duke of Aback.
She was so excited that throughout the day she repeated the story of recovering the jewel from Euphthesia to her sage, repeating it like a parrot.
“So that’s why!!! I!! What kind of policeman is moving suspiciously!! I slap him with my whole body!!!! I hit him with a torso headbutt and then I lay him down!! The jewel is papa papapat!!!”
‘Ah… Please stop now…’
Charlotte repeats the same story all day long.
Seong-il got tired of her repetitive stories and started reading her newspaper, which he bought from outside to avoid talking to her.
“Uh…?”
And interesting articles written in the newspaper.
‘What? An interesting article appeared in the Guardian of the Sun newspaper?’
“Detective Charlotte! Would you like to come over here and read this?”
“Huh…? What’s the matter? Seongil-kun?”
