The Youngest Assassin Is a Swordsman Genius - The Youngest Assassin Is a Swordsman Genius chapter 38
Episode 38
What caught my eye was a splendid sarcophagus placed on a high platform.
Numerous boxes and unusual objects were lined up around it, as if on display.
The murals and triangle symbols painted on the spacious common walls were exquisite.
It seemed that they had finally reached the end of the dungeon.
“Nice job. Treasure Hunter. What you found must have been a real shortcut.”
Sophia smiled brightly and tried to run forward.
But her new model suddenly stopped.
Because I grabbed Rob Hood.
snap!
“Kyaaak!”
After screaming, the young lady of the Marquis looked up at me with an absurd expression.
However, it must have been embarrassing to fall down on the ballad, so I quickly got up and corrected my posture.
Then, with ferocious eyes, he questioned and listened.
“How dare you put your hands on the body of the original woman!”
“Then you’re going to die, are you okay?”
I pointed with my chin at something glowing in the hallway on the wall.
Sophia’s face turned white.
If I had just run, that trap would have pierced my head.
“I think you saved my life thanks to me.”
“Sheesh! Thank you.”
“If you’re grateful, you’re grateful. What is ‘Hagun’ again?”
“……Let’s take the lead.”
Blushing, she glanced at the cavity where the Death Knight was for no reason and smoked something else.
Still, it seemed that he had some regrets.
Kwagak!
Triggering the trap by throwing a throwing knife, I passed through the corridor with a triumphant stride.
At this rate, there would be no more danger.
However, it was time to take the last step while climbing the towering podium.
click!
“Oh let go.”
Also, it wasn’t over until it was over.
As I quickly somersaulted backwards, something silver flew like a flash and brushed past the tip of my chin.
If the timing had been a little bit later or faster, he would have been pierced by that sharp spear.
Of course, the Black Dragon Armor would stop it once.
However, the very moment I tried to land under the podium while controlling my body.
Sophia’s shocked expression caught my eye.
‘ah… … . I forgot this woman was following me.’
Udangtang!
She collided with me while doing somersaults and fell to the floor without even having time to scream.
I fell down the podium, but I didn’t feel any shock to my body.
It was because Sophia, who was underneath, relieved most of it.
“Oops! Are you okay?”
I acted exaggeratedly for no reason and jumped up.
However, surprisingly, she brushed off her robe and stood up calmly.
The shock must have been significant, but there was no change in expression at all.
It must have been that the robe had some kind of impact resistance magic on it.
It’s what wizards use to protect themselves.
Cheer!
But the very next moment, I felt a terrifying life.
From Sophia, who bent her head to one side and stared at my face.
“Hey Treasure Hunter.”
“Yes?”
“…You bastard, you’re just great!”
I’m sorry!
She immediately tried to hit my calf with a wand.

Jumping up and down, I escaped the merciless baptism of cane.
For some reason, it felt like the PTSD of being scolded by my mother as a child came over me.
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t catch it, so Sophia just glared at me with a huff.
“Whoa! Now that you’re feeling a little better, you can come.”
“You’re not telling me to believe that, are you?”
“You unlucky bastard. I will kill you.”
“Look at this. How do you go next to someone who is deadly?”
“Come and open this sarcophagus before it is burned with magic.
“yep.”
If I held out any longer, I would be really angry, so I quickly went up to the podium and opened the sarcophagus.
While the heavy lid opened, she looked at the tombstone in front of the platform with sparkling eyes.
He must have made a great discovery that would put an end to his rage.
“Did you get anything?”
“Yes. This is the grave.”
“That’s what you can tell just by looking at the withered corpse.”
I muttered as I pointed my thumb at the white bone inside the sarcophagus.
Sophia, who was scanning the ancient texts, carefully observed the platform with an interesting look.
It seemed that he was more interested in the letters engraved on the straight stone than on the corpse.
Unable to hold back my curiosity, I asked her a question.
“Looking at it, it looks like a person with a hangarak, but whose grave is it?”
“The King of the East, Alfonso Mancini.”
I knew at least who he was.
He was the most famous member of the Mancini family.
Perhaps without Dongpaewang, the name Mancini would have been buried in history.
Because Alfonso placed his family on a rock, he was able to rule the eastern part of the continent for a long time.
Of course, after the death of King Dongpae, the kingdom of Mancini, which had been on the path of downfall, was eaten by the Marquess of Pennant.
Anyway, now we have excavated the tomb of a great historical figure.
Sophia forgot the fact that she was under me, and this time she opened the boxes around her one by one.
rattle.
“Oh oh!”
Then, between the pottery and the ancient armor, a golden beam of light emanated.
The box, as if freshly minted, contained gleaming gold coins and all manner of jewels.
There were as many as 20 of them.
The Marquess Young Ae also opened her eyes wide, as if she hadn’t known that the burial goods would be so generous.
It was enough to make up for the loss caused by the discovery of the dungeon.
Dalgrak. Dalgrak.
Suddenly, Sophia tilted her head and looked back.
He seemed to have heard something strange.
She narrowed her eyes and observed me carefully.
“you…….”
“Yes?”
“Why did you grow up?”
“……What do you mean it’s grown?”
“Your body is swollen. You weren’t this fat before.”
“It’s probably because of my mood. I’m originally a big guy. hahahaha!”
I smiled awkwardly and tried to move my steps to the other side of the joint.
But isn’t it a clear sound echoing from under your feet?

Jinglang! Jinglang!
It was the noise of gold coins falling one by one through his clothes every time he walked.
The young lady of the Marquis raised her forehead with a tired expression and spoke as if growling.
“Can’t we get it out right now? That’s a breach of contract.”
“Ah, damn it.”
Wow Changchang!
I spilled the gold and jewels I had hidden under my clothes on the floor.
However, Sophia’s expression did not know how to relax.
It was because I was still a bit chubby to say I gave away everything I had stolen.
“Do you want to keep playing?”
“Ah, I got it.”
Whoops.
In the end, I had to strip off my clothes to prove that I had nothing.
With suspicion in her eyes, she went around meticulously checking the grave goods.
There would have been a high probability of not knowing if I had taken a few moderately, but I was greedy for no reason and got caught.
‘This is all the rice cake of the picture. It’s really tearful.’
If you pack just one treasure chest, you’d be able to buy several villas… … .
Looking at the gold and silver treasures, I felt sad for some reason, so I snooped around the podium.
Eventually, I sat down on the sarcophagus of King Dongpae and began to complain.
“Ancient corpse man, honestly, isn’t it the part where you should turn a blind eye to someone who has dug through a dungeon even if they get some treasure? Yes? What do you think?”
“…”
“You say that the king of Dongpae also admits it? I thought so too. You have excellent insight.”
Sophia, who was recording the list of burial items, glanced at me as if she had heard me muttering.
With a grim expression on my face, I looked around the common wall, pretending to look for an exit.
Then, when her gaze was taken away, she glanced at Dongpaewang’s white bone and smirked.
“She’s a bit venomous for a marquise’s daughter. Her Highness, who’s even a year older, understands.”
While chatting with the corpse of King Dongpae, something unusual caught my eye.
A black orb the size of an egg was held in the hand of the white bones that were gathered in the chest.
I reflexively rolled my eyes and looked at Sophia.
Her list-making was nearing its end.
I tucked the black marble into my sleeve with the sneaky hand movements typical of an assassin.
Then he walked nonchalantly to the common wall and started looking for an exit.
‘Wouldn’t it be nice to have at least one marble if I had to go?’
* * *
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
Finding the exit from the dungeon wasn’t too difficult for me.
Wasn’t I the one who found the shortcut at the dead end?
I was trying to pretend to be proud, but I accidentally pressed something wrong and it happened.
In any case, it was true that my contribution was the greatest in this exploration.
‘Now the only thing left to do is to get the money.’
Exploration had already been completed and excavations were to be carried out in the future.
But I couldn’t leave the camp.
Due to post-processing issues, I had to wait in a temporary barracks near the dungeon for the time being.
They say they will give you additional remuneration and the right to sell the villa.
I happily passed the time lying on the cot in the barracks.
Even the bed and meals are provided, but there was no reason to think that the work was a little late.
“Anyway, is that real? The story of defeating the Death Knight with the Marquis’s daughter.”
However, one of the mercenaries of the expedition suddenly asked me a question.
Normally, I would have just answered roughly.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, so what’s the point of talking about trivial things?
But now I have a reason to lead this conversation.
“You have to be honest. That lowly woman…… No, the Marquis’s lady did not participate in the battle.”
“Is that so? I heard there were traces of flame magic on the remains of the Death Knight.”
“What are you doing with just one fireball? You shot it once and ran away.”
Perhaps because I was covering my eyesight with my body at the time, the magic worked just fine.
However, Death Knight is an undead with very high magic resistance.
A single fireball would have been just an itchy level.
No, honestly, I did it all!
Where do you put your spoon?
“Well, there’s no way a Death Knight could fall out of a single spell.”
“Without a proper guard, the wizard has no choice but to flee. The Marquis’s judgment was good. Oh, of course, I’m not trying to diminish your merit. It just could be.”
Anyway, now a story that is close to the truth is starting to circulate.
Only then did I lie down again with a satisfied expression on my face.
‘What is this anyway?’
Putting my hand in my bosom, I fiddled with the black sphere.
Since the King of Dongpae was holding it tightly in his hand, it must have been a valuable item.
After all the work was done, I was going to go to the safe house and take a closer look.
I couldn’t get it out of here right away, so I put things away.
But as the barracks door opened, a knight burst in.
It was Sophia’s escort knight, Jules Cainman.
He looked at me and said in a blunt voice.
“The young lady is looking for you.”
uh… … . Didn’t you notice that I was talking behind your back?
