A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War! - Chapter 79: (2)
“Yes, I am. If my child received a favor, it’s only right that the parents repay it. Go ahead, tell me what you desire.”
[Kaiyan! Tell him about the conversation we had earlier!]
Suddenly, due to Lord Carsia’s abrupt request, Kaiyan was taken aback, but Rieka’s words brought him back to his senses.
“…If you could give me something that Lord Carsia considers valuable, I would be grateful.”
“Oh, you want something I value? What if what I give you turns out to be of no use to you?”
“I’ll handle that.”
“Ah, it seems like you’re pleased with the idea.”
If Lord Carsia had treated Kaiyan the same way his wife did, the request might have been different. But from their first meeting, Lord Carsia had shown respect and trust in Kaiyan as a noble.
Lord Carsia chuckled and clapped his hands.
“Hehe, good. Barvan.”
“Yes, Father.”
“Take Kaiyan to the warehouse on the underground 3rd floor.”
“What? The underground 3rd floor? Not the 2nd…?”
Kaiyan had no idea what the underground 3rd-floor warehouse held, but Barvan’s astonished expression piqued his curiosity.
“Yes, and give Kaiyan what he desires there.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Well then, I have some business to attend to. We’ll see each other again when the opportunity arises.”
As Kaiyan bowed slightly in farewell to Lord Carsia, who was leaving, Barvan looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“You… How did you even think of making such a request?”
[I already told you! Just do it!]
Rieka poked her head out of his embrace but Kaiyan petted her and looked at Barvan again.
“Anyway, what could be in the underground 3rd-floor warehouse? Is it really a treasure?”
“Yeah, you know it well.”
“What? Is there really a treasure?”
“The underground 3rd-floor warehouse contains treasures collected by the Carsia family since its founding. I’ve been inside only twice myself.”
Kaiyan couldn’t help but think that Lord Carsia’s generosity was too much, even for a noble, to allow a commoner like him into such a place.
“Well, what will you do? It doesn’t matter if you go right now or tomorrow.”
“…I will go right away.”
As soon as Lady Carsia slapped the table, the meal was over. Moreover, if he didn’t go today due to his expectations for the treasure, he might not be able to sleep properly.
Lord Carsia might even change his mind suddenly and offer a different reward.
“All right, let’s go then.”
Following Barvan, they left the dining hall and walked for more than ten minutes inside the mansion, and then a staircase leading downward came into view. It was a bit strange that there seemed to be another staircase on the opposite side if it was just a staircase. Why did they come all the way to this distant one?
Whether he noticed Kaiyan’s doubt or not, Barvan spoke up.
“This staircase leads to the warehouse. To get to the warehouse, you must go through this staircase. From here on, even the servants or knights cannot enter.”
“I see…”
“Come on, follow me.”
Kaiyan followed Barvan, who walked ahead and went down the stairs. The staircase was circular and descended one floor after making one full circle.
One full circle and another. When they had gone through three full circles, Barvan stopped in front of an iron door next to the stairs.
“This is it. Wait a moment.”
Barvan took something out of his pocket and inserted his hand into a deep groove in the center of the iron door.
Clank! Clank!
“…What in the world?”
The door remained as it was, but inside the door, there was a strange noise, as if a monster were causing a commotion.
After a while, all the noise disappeared, and the door began to open on its own.
“This is where the essence of the Carsia family gathers. Behold it with honor.”
Barvan shouted confidently, but what Kaiyan saw through the opening door didn’t look magnificent. Just as he was starting to feel a bit disappointed…
[Wow! There are so many expensive items from the shop!]
“What are you talking about?” Kaiyan asked as if wondering what she meant.
[There are several items from the player shop here! And they’re all super expensive! Of course, they’re not player-exclusive items, though!]
“Items from the shop?”
That wasn’t strange at all. Kaiyan had already confirmed that there were items from the Eunasia continent in the shops.
What surprised him was that Rieka was so impressed that she couldn’t help but exclaim. Rieka never exclaims unless the item is worth more than 1000G!
His disappointment vanished in an instant, replaced by excitement.
“What are you doing? Let’s go in.”
“Huh? Oh, right.”
Whether it was because of Kaiyan’s eyes gleaming with greed or not, Barvan walked into the warehouse in confusion.
As Kaiyan followed Barvan, he approached the shelves. At regular intervals, items were placed on luxurious cushions.
If what Barvan said was true, the items before Kaiyan’s eyes were all treasures in their own right.
His heart trembled with anticipation and excitement to the point where he could hardly control it.
“Now, shall we begin?”
Even though it might just be a dream.
Meow.
Kaiyan patted his chest twice, and Rieka, who had been rustling around in his chest, suddenly stuck her head out.
“Oh! This is Bakirun’s Seal! It’s an item that sells for 1200G in the shop! Bakirun’s Seal is an item made on the Eunasia continent!”
Kaiyan had a way to find out which treasures had what functions and which ones were valuable.
