Chapter 207: Chapter 146: Elemental Flower, Captured Female Rogue (4159)_2
Otherwise, Ivita wouldn’t bother with her.
But what is this Elemental Flower that the other party mentioned?
A coveted object among witches?
Is it valuable?
What is it?
Ivita asked the Old Witch, "What’s the Elemental Flower?"
The Old Witch saluted Ivita, and said respectfully, "The Elemental Flower? It’s an incredibly powerful and rare, but well-known source of magic power."
A greedy glint flashed in her eyes, "The Elemental Flower typically blooms with four flowers at once, never just one. If she truly knows the whereabouts of the Elemental Flower, Your Highness should pry it out of her mouth."
"There are many legends about the Elemental Flower, it’s said that the first to discover the immense power of the Elemental Flower were a set of quadruplet girls."
"They were just ordinary daughters of a milkmaid."
"They had to do heavy work every day."
"Until one day, while herding cattle, the four sisters discovered a plant blooming with four flowers on a hillside, and these four Elemental Flowers bloomed before them."
"At that moment, the four types of magical power contained within the Elemental Flowers surged into their bodies, transforming them from mere mortals into powerful witches whom even the official witches could not approach for a time."
"Since then, for the witches, the Elemental Flower became something they longed for but could never possess."
"Your Highness, although the four element properties contained in the Elemental Flower are random, if one of them turns out to be a Lightning Element, would that not solve your fourth source of magic?"
Ivita was thrilled inside.
Unexpectedly, catching a master thief brought such an unexpected gain.
But actually, it makes sense.
A thief, after all,
Must know a lot of things.
The Old Witch chuckled, looking at Lady Robin as if she were an experimental subject. "Your Highness, she is a third-tier assassin. It’s just that the power of faith in her has probably been worn down by the Wild Boar Knights Group."
"It’s unlikely to recover in less than half a year. In my opinion, there may be more than one type of toxin in her body to suppress her power."
"One does not even see her use Shadow Step, a skill a second-tier assassin could."
"In fact, this is only because after she fell into the hands of the Wild Boar Knights Group, they sapped most of her strength to protect against her."
"By the way, do you want me to hunt down those seven little dwarves?"
Ivita shook her head. From what the Spirit Mirror Divination showed, the female thief didn’t seem to be well-acquainted with the seven little dwarves.
The seven little dwarves are basically jesters.
It’s pointless to go to all the trouble of tracking down seven jesters who are bound to leave her territory.
Those few little dwarves, they must be going to find their Saxon Princess.
The maid quickly went upstairs, and with the help of Griffin and Black Wolf, brought the culprit to the empty room next door for examination.
Ivita had Griffin and Black Wolf blindfold themselves, allowing the maids to strip off her tight clothing, inspecting her personal items.
Seeing two men blindfolded, and that she was surrounded only by a bunch of unarmed women, Lady Robin suddenly smiled, thinking it was a good opportunity to escape.
She could just escape from the window in the room.
As long as she jumped out, it would be easy.
However, to her surprise, Ivita suddenly opened the door and fixed his left eye on her.
Lady Robin blushed and covered her modesty with her hands, and bit her lip. "Bastard, you- I am going to kill you because..."
"You don’t have a reason to kill me." said Ivita, "Because I am watching you through the Fire of Law. Don’t get me wrong, I’m just afraid you’ll run away."
"Before you compensate for my losses, as a thief, you can’t leave my territory."
"But once you have made up for it, I can let you go any time. However, judging by your intentions to steal, you should at least compensate me ten times over."
"You..." Lady Robin noticed the flame really burning in his left eye, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling respected, but then she felt it was ridiculous.
What is this little devil up to?
Robin let the maids manipulate her body, stripped off her relatively tight clothes, and a maid found a tiny dagger under her armpit, half the size of a regular one.
The maid was startled and immediately threw the dagger on the floor.
Ivita snapped his fingers, picked up the dagger with the Hand of Mana, and brought it to his side.
Good heavens.
This woman indeed managed to hide weapons on her person, right under the noses of the Wild Boar Knights Group.
Lucky I decided to check her.
Otherwise, if something were to happen in the future, it could cost several lives within my domain.
Ivita’s gaze on Lady Robin grew colder, he felt this woman was too dangerous, and through the Fire of Law, he could only see her vague silhouette.
Ivita denigrated playing any underhanded games with this woman who came from a bandit background.
Afterwards, the maids found even more weapons on her.
But sadly, they didn’t find anything of value on her.
So much for worrying before that the Old Witch would take advantage of watching her and pilfer some treasures.
Ivita conjured a thought, and in an instant, a hundred Hands of Mana twisted and broke these weapons.
Ivita said, "That’s done, now pay me."
Lady Robin was taken aback, "You, you can’t be serious? You apprehended me just because I knocked over some of your furniture? You’re too petty, too frugal. You..."
Ivita frowned. "A few pieces of furniture? Do I strike you as affluent?"
"I have no money to repay." Lady Robin refused: "I am a vigilante thief, every time I steal money, I exchange it for food and distribute it to the poor. So I never have any spare money."
The maids, having completed the inspection of her body, stood to one side, taking her clothes as well.
Lady Robin stood in place, somewhat embarrassed, unsure whether to stand there shamefacedly, or to ask the maids for her clothes back.
She felt a bit regretful.
Just moments ago, she’d managed to escape the Wild Boar Knights Group thanks to the distraction of the fire and the help of the seven Little Dwarf Knights. But even after escaping, she wanted to make a detour to the Lord’s castle next door for a heist, only to fall into the hands of this unfamiliar Baron.
Lady Robin glared at Ivita in resentment, "What do you want me to do?"
Ivita thought for a moment, then proposed a solution. "Earlier, you mentioned the Elemental Flower, could you exchange this information to offset the damages I’ve incurred?"
"Out of the question!" Lady Robin firmly refused.
Ivita thought, and felt this wasn’t entirely fair, so he said, "Then let’s exchange the money you owe me for an opportunity to trade information about the Elemental Flower, how much would you sell such information for?"
Lady Robin scornfully looked at Ivita. "Ten million pounds!"
"And for the record, I won’t assist any nobles."
"I’m at odds with all nobility."
Ivita sighed.
It looks like this woman won’t be disclosing information about the Elemental Flower anytime soon.
That’s fine.
My Water Dragon’s Tooth hasn’t been fully digested yet, Pat Town hasn’t sent anyone to explore, and neither the Water Magic nor the Spirit Knowledge Mist have been fully explored.
For the time being, I don’t have time to personally look for the Elemental Flower.
Ivita said to Lady Robin, "So, you want to play a waiting game?"
"Fine, I accept."
"You can play your waiting game with me in the jail."
"Don’t act so aggrieved, after all you are nothing but a thief, and you even had the audacity to steal from me. No matter what I do to you as a Lord, it’s fully justified."
"Even a death sentence wouldn’t be excessive."
Knowing that what Ivita said wasn’t wrong, Lady Robin could only bite her lip in silence.
She didn’t expect that she would fall into the hands of such a little twerp.
If the forest outlaws knew about this, she would likely die of humiliation.
How infuriating.
Ivita ordered, "Get her into some simple clothes and try to keep someone watching her twenty-four-seven."
"Black Wolf, it’s on you to keep an eye on her for now."
"Don’t feed her too much, otherwise if she eats her fill, she’ll have the energy to escape."
Black Wolf responded: "At your command, sir."
Ivita furrowed his brow, stroked his chin, feeling as though he was behaving rather like a villain.
Ah well, such is the life of a Lord.
If one doesn’t behave somewhat villainously, then how is one’s family supposed to eat?
