The guarding duty of the Lawless City route is complete and I return to the underground facility .Yukime should be back soon .
She must be riding back with a carriage full of gold coins .
After that we can collect the rest of the gold coins and withdraw . All that left is for us to witness their collapse .
Then John Smith would sit cross-legged in the royal capital high-rise hotel and say [As planned . The collapse is upon us... . . ] while sipping the finest wine with a profound smile and pile of gold coins on his table—- .
So cool .
I went through the underground pa.s.sage while drawing such delusions .
However, it is awfully quiet .
All the workers were already withdrawn but there"re still guards remaining behind .
Did they have too much free time and fell asleep . Well, I overdid it and no one could reach this place after all .
[Fufufu... . ]
I showed my white teeth with a smile and walk with a light footstep to the front of the vault .
[Are... . ?]
Why is the vault door unlocked...… . . ?
Moreover, it doesn"t seem like it was opened using a key but forced opened .
[N, no way, don"t tell me...…]
My security should have been perfect .

I haven"t let even one rat pa.s.s through Lawless City .
My legs are shaking .
My hand also shaking .
My body overflowing with cold sweat .
[i, i, i, ii, it, it will surely be fine… . . ]
Then I opened the half-open vault door .
The inside was...empty .
That golden mountains has disappeared without a trace .
[It . it"s a lie...]
The power escaped my knees and I crumbled on the spot .
[How, Why... . . ]
My gold coins... .
[Ha, hhaha, it"s a dream… . . no, a bad dream… . I am going to become [A POWER IN THE SHADOW]... . ]
I used my shaking hand to fold my all-backed hair and stand up .
It will be fine, It has to be .
Yukime may have brought it out for some reason .
And if someone has robbed us, it would take sometimes to transport all that gold . Unless they are very skilled then they shouldn"t have gone far .
I walk out of the vault with my shaking knees .
When I felt two presences approaching, I feign to be calm .
[——John-sama!!]
Two s.e.xy beauties are calling my name .
They were Yukime"s aides, Natsu and Kana .
I asked the two who are behaving unusually .
[What happened?]
Something did happen right? there must have been something, Why you ask? because the vault have been swept clean .
Yukime-sama——Yukime-sama was captured by Gettan!
[What… . . did you say… . . ?
Yukime was... . Gettan...…I see!
Everything start to be connected in my head and I laugh out loud .
[John-sama...?]
[I see, so it was like that...]
The skeptical Natsu and Kana saw what inside the opened vault behind me .
[Th, This is—–!]
[D, don"t tell me, he———!! but it was too fast… . . ]
The two"s eyes were wide opened due to astonishment .
[Do you know where he is?]
[Y, Yes… . . !]
[Then there"s no problem . I will retrieve everything immediately . ]
Then I pa.s.s through the two people, the exploding magic power shake the atmosphere .
[S, so much magic power !?]
[Is, is this John Smith"s true power?]
Moreover I manipulate the steel wire and cut the air causing the Shushushushu sound and draw a beautiful line of light .
[Gettan… . you have made me angry...!]
Now, let"s begin the retaliation—— .
