"Permission to dig?"

"Yes. We came here to get the spirit stone. We did not get permission from the Brillia Mage Nation to obtain it in advance. And there are guards stationed there. That's where we get permission to steal it.

"...... I see. Securing a magic stone in a labyrinth that is thought to be dead. And I was wondering why they were going there with a small number of people, but I see that's what you were thinking. Now I finally understand. It's not a very effective method without us, is it?

　We arrived in the city of Valiant.

　After Sura left the area with me, we met the man who had been in charge of this variant.

　It's a pretty good place to live, but it seems that many of the young people here want to leave this place for the Orient, where I am.

　I have received petitions from them asking me to accept them in the Orient.

　After being welcomed in such a way, having a meal and taking care of some business, I rest in my room.

　During this time, I explained to Lassen about my future plans.

　Before coming here, I had only told him that I would be fine and that I would take care of it, but I had not given him a proper explanation.

　When I told him again what I was going to do, he seemed to be satisfied to some extent and his previous anxiousness disappeared.

　Before I came here, I had not obtained permission to obtain the spirit stone from the magical nation through Banagher and others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's because a spirit stone is too important a strategic material.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course.

　After all, the Brillia mage who had obtained the spirit stones had created not only a rock-carrying long-range offensive magic tool called the rock-carrying crossbow staff, but also a magical weapon.

　A rock giant's magical weapon powerful enough to take the homeland against the warriors of Atmos.

　I knew that no one from another country would give permission for the people of another country to have access to the spirit stone that could create such a weapon.

　Therefore, we came here under the assumption that we would steal it without permission, and the first thing we had to do when we got here was to ask for permission.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is not a contradiction in terms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The permission we are about to obtain is not for the Brillia mage nation, but for those who are supervising the site.

　The village of Atmos is an enclave far from the mage kingdom.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And soldiers are still stationed there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But the land itself is barren and empty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is no food, no entertainment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In such a place, the army, separated from the home country, has been staying for years.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought that in such a place, there would surely be a sense of inauthenticity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be hard to keep a watchful eye on people all the time in the cold, not knowing who is coming or when.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So you whisper softly to them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We'll give you a reward if you let us get away with what we're about to do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, a bribe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When we collected the silver coins we also obtained the coins of the Bryllian mage kingdom.

　If we have them, they'll let us go if we wrap up a few.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, we can't be too reckless with them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For example, it would be impossible for them to miss an excavation work by a large army like ours.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If they were found to have done so, they would be held responsible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, there was a condition for letting them go.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That was a small number of people and a fixed period of time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, we could let them come to Atmos Village and steal, but only a limited number of people and for a limited period of time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This way, the army guarding the village would not mind too much.

　The labyrinth is so exhausted that it is said to be dead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The probability of finding a fallen spirit stone by chance is low.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Furthermore, the probability of finding a spirit stone in the ground is even lower, and finding a vein is even more impossible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, even if you find them, you will not have enough manpower and time to mine them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In short, it is an absolutely no-lose exchange from the other party's point of view.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In fact, such an offer has already been made several times.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And it seems that he has accepted them, but he has never taken out the spirit stone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, the soldier of the Brillia Mage Nation, whom I contacted through a message from Valiant, put the deposit I gave him in his pocket happily and went back to the village of Atmos to ask for permission.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If I went over there a few days later with the rest of the soldiers, they would be able to turn a blind eye to the digging for a certain period of time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Under normal circumstances, it would have been no loss to the other party.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But this time, the other party was wrong.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, we have Lassen who can search underground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If Lassen has magic power, he can see through the ground with much higher accuracy than our eyes can.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And he can dig up the spirit stones he finds.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And I have a magic bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Normally, a small number of people can only carry so much, but with a magic bag, I can bring out a much larger amount of spirit stones than it looks like.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, what I thought I would miss out on for a little money will turn out to be a big loss.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, that is, if you can successfully find the spirit stones in the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Actually, no one knows how many spirit stones are left under the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We will have to wait and see.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After obtaining permission to dig in the area, a small group of us headed for the village of Atmos.
