The Author's POV

Chapter 185

-Fwaaaa!

As the door opened revealing what lay behind it, I knew that all of the struggles that I had gone through this past month were finally going to pay off.

...in a very lucrative way at that.

-Clank!

Once the doors fully opened up revealing what was behind the large door, my footsteps halted for a second as my mouth opened up slightly.

"This is more than I expected..."

A vermilion rug ran down from the door all the way to the end of the room. Banners with golden embroideries swung gently from the side of the walls that were coated in a golden luster. Between each banner stood a large candlestick, almost all of them lit and in turn illuminating the room below them.

Around the room were rows upon rows of glass-protected cabinets with all sorts of weapons and artifacts hidden behind them.

Artifacts, natural treasures, weapons, and many other miscellaneous items were all stored inside of the cabinets.

"Oh wow.."

Entering the room and taking a look at the place, Kevin exclaimed in disbelief.

"This is a lot more than I expected"

The number of treasures present was beyond what Kevin had ever expected.

Although he expected there to be something, he did not expect there to be so many items here. All of the stuff here could probably fetch him a hefty sum of money.

...just the weapons alone were enough for anyone to drool over.

"Let's go, Silug you wait outside"

Entering the treasury, the first thing I did was tell Silug to wait outside.

There were a couple of reasons as to why I kept him outside, one to guard the entrance in case demons found out we broke in, and two because there was a chance that something that detected the presence of orcs was installed in this place.

Just like the living quarters of Marquess Azeroth.

...I couldn't afford to take any chances therefore I just asked him to stay outside.

Glancing at me who was similarly looking at the treasury with shining eyes, Kevin asked.

"How are we going to take the stuff, should we just break all of the cabinets?"

Hearing Kevin's suggestion, I shook my head in disappointment.

"If only that was possible..."

The cabinets before us were made of special materials that were extremely durable.

So, even if we forcefully tried to break them open, it would probably take a long time to open each and every single cabinet present.

I honestly wanted to take everything with me, but given the time left we had, I could only select a few of them to take.

Unaware of my thoughts, Kevin asked.

"So if we can't break them, what are we going to do?"

Glancing at Kevin, I reassured him.

"Don't worry, I've already thought it through, although we can't take everything, I pretty much know which stuff is the most useful for us"

In the novel, Kevin pretty much took every single item in the treasury, so I already knew what items there were and which ones were the most valuable.

Therefore, without hesitation, I instantly made my way towards one of the cabinets closest to us.

"Alright, this should be the first one"

Following me, halting his steps as he suddenly thought of something, Kevin suggested

"Wait, what if we put everything in our dimensional space and bring them back to earth?"

Hearing Kevin's suggestion, I shook my head.

"I don't think we can do that"

"Why?"

Brushing my hair to the side, I pointed towards the bottom part of the cabinets.

"Look, the cabinets are attached to the ground. We could've probably done that if we had more time, but we don't so we can only break a select few cabinets"

"Ah, fair enough"

Staring at the cabinets, Kevin indeed noticed that they were directly attached to the ground making it impossible to just put them in the dimensional space.
