Chapter 51: Letter From Princess.

The commander of the bandit camp was walking slowly; the whole town was following Lexus and him with their weapons.

After Lexus killed the Bandit King and other nobles, the information got out in the town like a wildfire; Lexus also didn’t care much about it as he couldn’t control it.

"Faster, buddy," Lexus urged the commander with his sword tip pointing at the commander’s back.

"Do you think you’ll be able to leave from here alive?" Commander asked while he was walking at a steady pace.

*Split*

Lexus used his sword to slash the Commander’s hand from the shoulder; as it was night and two girls were waiting for him, he couldn’t be bothered with such pathetic games.

"Ahhhh!! Damn it, bastard!" The commander of the bandits yelled with pain.

"Walk fast before I chop your head off and give the axe to someone else," Lexus threatened while showing his sword.

The commander, seeing there was no chance of winning with Lexus, walked faster and soon reached a house. The house looked very normal, which felt weird because everything in the village was made with scrap, but this house was made with stone.

"This is where it’s hidden," the commander said, then opened the door of the house; inside there was nothing but a huge iron door.

"Faster," Lexus said, while the whole town watched them. They didn’t dare to attack Lexus because he was holding a sword at their command’s neck.

Yes. " The " commander didn’t dillydally anymore and directly went inside; there was no hand on that iron door, so Lexus looked at the commander with a questioning gaze.

"This axe is the handle and password, but I am not strong enough to open this door," Commander said while he gave the axe to Lexus.

Lexus, nodding his head, took the axe and sheathed his sword. Then, with the axe in hand, he walked towards the door. There was a hole in the iron door, which was the same as the axe in his hand.

Lexus then looked back to see the commander, who was clutching his wounded hand, and his eyes were almost white.

Lexus turned to the door once again and smiled, then entered the ax inside. The blade of the double-sided axe was like a key; Lexus rotated the axe, but it was not easy, so he used his strength.

* Ghrommmmmmmm *

A loud noise echoed around the house as if something massive was getting moved. The commander, who was holding a dagger in his hand, now looked at the door opening with a shocked expression.

Lexus was using his ten percent of the strength to move the thing; it was so heavy that even a person with Level 500 won’t be able to open it.

The treasury’s door opened wide; Lexus looked inside; there was only one small table inside, and on it was a small black ring.

Lexus then looked back to the commander; his smile was still there, and he nodded his head, then said, "I thought you’d try to backstab me; I was prepared for that; your head would have burst as soon as you tried it."

The commander, while holding a dagger in secret, gulped hard; his almost white eyes were only showing fear now.

Lexus entered the treasury and took the ring; he wore the ring on his left hand beside his old space ring.

Lexus peeked inside, and he was astonished to see the amount of gold that fat pig had, and the size of the interior was huge.

This ring is a thousand times bigger than the previous one.

Inside the black ring he just acquired, there were three small mountains of gold, five big mountains of silver, and many precious jewels.

I’ll just give the old ring to Isabella; there’s tons of gold in there as well.

Lexus smiled at his gain, then walked out of the treasury and the stone house; everyone in the town was looking at him with hatred.

"Alright, I need dry food," Lexus said to the commander with a smile on his face.

"Dry food? Follow me." The commander nodded his head; dry food racks were very common in the town because they only needed dry food when they went out.

The ring is ninety percent empty, hehe.

Lexus, thinking of his new Black Space ring, was very happy; just this ring alone was a huge gain in this mission; the gold and food are bonuses.

Lexus then emptied three huge warehouses of dry food and was very happy, while there were one hundred corpses in the town lying in the same motion.

The townspeople thought they’d stop Lexus from looting them by attacking him together, but Lexus used only one attack to behead hundreds of them.

"Alright then, It’s time for me to leave. Take care, everyone. I’ll be missing you. Lexus said this flew up in the sky and left the town while the whole town fell on their knees to mourn the death of their king.

Lexus, after flying out of the Bandit town, slowly landed in the Black Leaves Forest and then ran to where their stagecoach was.

It didn’t take long to reach the carriage, and seeing everything was fine, Lexus sighed with relief.

"Lex, you’re back." Isabella, seeing Lexus returning with nothing in hand, was curious.

"Yeah, take this; this has twenty thousand gold. I’ll use this from now on," Lexus said, giving the purple ring to Isabella with a smile and showing his new black ring with golden metal.

"Oh? That’s generous; the loot must be nice. Whatever did you bring for food? That girl has eaten our one week’s ration in a day," Isabella asked about food in distress.

"Yeah, I’ve enough food; let’s go," Lexus said, and then they started their journey once again in the middle of the night.

The next day, Lexus was seated in front of the stagecoach to guide the horses in the right way and saw a huge falcon coming down towards him.

"Messenger Falcon, don’t kill it," Isabella said from inside the carriage; she was combing the not-so-little girl’s hair.

Lexus received the falcon on his one arm, and there was a small paper attached to its leg.

Lexus pulled out the paper and opened it; there was very delicate and beautiful handwriting inside.

Dear Lord Lex,

Yesterday my spies got news about the betrayal of Baron Yaris and Duke Dagger; they were colluding with the Northern Bandit and their supposed king. You have my heartfelt thanks for eliminating them on my behalf. Next time we meet, we must have a wine together.

Yours Truly, Empress Annabelle.

Lexus, seeing the letter, smiled, then didn’t send anything back with the falcon as he doesn’t have much to say; she was a female after all, and he was still not ready for a romance or anything like that.

Kolar Gold empire.

Annabelle was smiling while signing documents on papers; she was very worried about the north because that place is where Baron Yaris has his barony, and the north has a weak hold as it is.

"You’re really an angel, not by looks only," Annabelle murmured while her cheeks flushed a little.

A mature woman blushing while thinking about a young man was shameful, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
