Became a Munchkin Skill Thief

Episode 3 Secret Library

“Why are you pretending not to know. Between us? They raised me from the time I was born, although I know it well. In some sense, that’s why you’re tied up, right?”

To Krashu, Aliod was a father who raised him and a precious person.

However, one worst rule applies to the butler of Valheim.

The rule is that the success of the direct descendents you choose to serve will be determined by how far they solidify their position within the family.

They must follow the lineal line they serve for the rest of their lives.

Even if that direct descendant was sent to Cheongsong-gwan.

There is only one way for them to get out of this cursed structure.

When a direct descendant he served died.

Of course, when a direct descendant dies, it is common for them to retire as well.

However, it was a different story in Aliod’s case.

Because Krashu’s third brother suggested something to him.

The one condition was none other than Krashu’s poisoning.

He said that if he poisoned Krashu, he would provide him with a new place to live and a lot of money.

‘My third older brother hated me terribly.’

The essential reason why the third brother hated himself was none other than his fourth sister.

A direct descendant of the Valheim family, which consists of a total of five members.

Two of them were actually half bloodlines different from the rest of the siblings.

From the first to the third, they are the children of my ex-wife.

After that, Krashu, the fourth and youngest child, was the children of the current wife of the head of Valheim.

And the fourth of them, Krashu’s older sister Charlotte Valheim, was the biggest problem.

‘The greatest genius born in Valheim.’

Charlotte is gifted with an incredible talent that is said to appear only once in a thousand years even in Valheim.

Based on her talent, Charlotte Valheim turned her direct position within Valheim in an instant.

As a result, not only her third older brother but also her second older sister were robbed of her direct rank by Charlotte.

As a result, the third brother kept the anger he had lost in his heart.

The family also openly supported Charlotte, and it was because her third older brother was really cold.

‘The third brother’s angry gaze was directed at me.’

The youngest with the same bloodline as Charlotte but poor skills.

Originally, even Krashu’s newly married mother hated the third child.

He poured out all her anger on the petty Krashu at the moment when she was pushed to the rank of her immediate family along with her Charlotte’s growth.

To the point where I really want to kill Krashu.

‘Because I can’t stand against Charlotte. She must have poured it out on me at least because her face resembles her a bit.’

Krashu From her point of view, it was an amazing thing for her, but she herself didn’t even have the strength to fight it.

She’s even the butler she’s supposed to serve, to the point where she finally agrees to his deal.

“Well, that’s it. I don’t care if you’re going to pretend you don’t know.”

Krashu didn’t particularly criticize Aliode any more.

In the end, the reason why his butler passed on to his third brother was because he was half a penny.

The reason Krashu was alive in the first place was because his poisoning failed.

That was natural.

The day Aliod decided to execute the assassination.

‘That guy committed suicide in front of my eyes.’

Aliod snatched the poison from the stew just before Krache ate it and drank it himself.

「Sorry. Master, I dared to commit a sin to death. You are as precious as my child, how dare you…….”

The image of Aliode, who was dying of poison that day, apologizing, was still clearly etched in my mind.

“You can follow me instead.”

But that’s about it, he had something else to ask of him.

“…… Yes.”

Has there been a change of heart?

Aliod answered quite meekly.

Krashu didn’t care about Aliode and moved on.

‘At this time of year, it’s definitely there.’

Hoping that his memory was correct, the place where Krashu’s steps headed was none other than Cheongsong Hall’s study.

It is a library with many books, but in fact, this library was just an assortment.

Krasch, who had actually read books here, knew very well that there weren’t many good books.

Cheongsonggwan is not a place for those abandoned in Balheim for nothing.

There is nothing useful in Cheongsonggwan.

Except for one thing.

“Mister Krashu, do you have any books you are looking for?”

Krashu suddenly stopped by the study.

Seeing him, Ali Oud questioned, and Krashu moved on without answering.

Then he immediately stood in front of the bookshelf.

“Aliod.”

“Yes.”

“Put this away.”

Aliod questioned.

However, Krashu’s order felt somehow difficult to refuse.

‘Where did I get this feeling?’

Gaju.

He was the head of Balheim.

But he quickly brushed off his thoughts.

Because it was still too early to compare him with Krashu.

Aliod took all the books out of the bookshelf and then removed the bookshelf as well.

What appeared like that was the wall of an ordinary study.

“This wall, Vera.”

“Yes?”

You told me to get rid of the bookshelves, but now you cut the walls?

It was a completely unpredictable story.

But Aliode was Krashu’s butler.

As much as he couldn’t refuse his order, Aliode drew his sword.

Then, a bluish aura began to permeate his sword.

Speaking of Valheim’s house, he must have advanced knight skills.

That way he could at least assist the direct descendant of Balheim.

“I will cut.”

Aliod cut through the wall with the rising sword.

The moment he faithfully obeyed Krashu’s order and finished the clean cut, the sound of koo-gu-gung rang out.

After a while, the outer wall of the wall was cut into a square shape and fell back.

Aliod realized at that moment.

That means there is something beyond the outer wall of the study.

Did you know about this place beforehand?

It is a place that even Aliode, assigned to Cheongsong Hall, did not know about.

The moment Aliod looked at the place blankly, Krache crossed the cut outer wall.

“Well done.”

Krashu gave Aliod a brief compliment and walked inside.

Aliod followed such Krashu as if possessed.

After a while they encountered a huge lock.

A padlock larger than a human hand was firmly locked in front of the door.

Krache stood before the padlock in front of the dusty door.

“Should I cut the lock too?”

“No, that’s enough.”

The wall beyond the study in Cheongsong-gwan.

When I came here in the past, it was a place that had no meaning because everything had already been burned down.

But it was different now.

Because that’s a fairly distant future.

‘Cheongsong Hall is definitely the place where those abandoned in Balheim are sent.’

That’s why the half-penny Krashu was also sent.

Krashu wasted his time here.

However, the original purpose of Cheongsonggwan was not for malicious reasons.

Although it has been a long time since Valheim was created, its meaning has faded.

The original meaning of Cheongsong Hall was a place where, when a person without ability was born in Balheim, he was helped to see the light again in Balheim.

However, the original meaning of Cheongsong Hall changed due to an incident.

The worst shame and demon of the Balheim family who grew up in Cheongsonggwan.

The one who tried to destroy Valheim.

By Demaris Valheim.

‘Thanks to that, this place was also hidden.’

A person like Demaris must not be born again.

That’s why it’s hidden here.

The Secret Library of Cheongsong Hall.

It was a place for half-poons in Balheim.

Arriving there, Krashu put his hand on the huge lock.

Originally, it is a lock made with a property that even Aliode, a high-ranking knight, cannot break.

However, I am different.

What should I do first to steal it?

That’s lockpicking.

For Krashu, who had picked numerous locks, the lock of the secret library at Cheongsong Hall was an easy task.

‘Should I show my active skills?’

Krashu immediately activated the Black Hood.

A black hood that steals what the target has.

Of course, the same applies to objects.

On the other hand, what is different from living things is that value judgments are not necessary for objects.

Especially if it’s an item that hasn’t been owned for a long time.

Clock!

At that moment, the ring of the lock was gripped in Krashu’s grasp.

Thump!

A large padlock that had lost its ring fell to the floor.

Seeing the situation unfolding in an instant, Aliod widened his eyes.

In the meantime, Krashu roughly threw the ring to the ground.

“…… Master Krashu, did you make a contract with God by any chance?”

Then Aliode asked if I would make a contract with God with surprised eyes.

The ability that Krashu just showed was clearly a skill.

The skill is extraordinary and acts as a deterrent.

So when Aliod asked, Krashu glanced at him.

Anyway, it seems that at this point he had not yet signed a contract with God.

“Well, he’s just a mediocre god. You can report it to your father. It doesn’t matter where you go or what you do.”

All of the butler’s work is reported to the father, the head of the household.

Knowing that, when Krashu said that, Aliode remained silent, then bowed his head.

“I will keep quiet until at least what Master Krashu wants to do is done.”

The words that came back were quite unexpected.

In Krashu’s memory, Aliode was a person who was greedy for success.

And the reason for his desire to succeed was none other than his daughter who had an incurable disease.

All of the salary he receives from Valheim is used to treat his daughter’s incurable disease.

But even so, the money wasn’t enough.

So he needed even more money.

That’s why he received an assassination offer from Krashu’s third brother.

In the end, the stew was poisoned.

And it was because of her daughter that she ate the stew herself.

That day Ali Oud saw her daughter in danger, and her eyes went round.

After all, the day he tried to carry out an assassination on his third brother in exchange for a better cure.

His daughter Ai eventually died of an incurable disease.

Ali Ord barely came to his senses after his daughter died, and died after eating stew instead of Krashu.

The last time he apologized, he felt guilty for not being able to grow Krashu as the butler.

To myself, who was born half-penny.

That kind of person is now coming out with that attitude.

‘Have you seen a vision of something in the meantime?’

Crache changed overnight.

Originally, this is an incomprehensible situation.

But if it was a contract with God, the story would be different.

Even if it’s half a penny, it can change overnight depending on which god you signed a contract with.

The skills given by the contract with the gods were just as valuable.

So Ali Aud changed his mind.

If the Krashu he sees now, he might be able to see the light again.

‘At this point, Ali Aud has been proposed to by his third brother, but has not acted on it.’

After all, he hadn’t betrayed Krashu yet.

As long as Krashu didn’t argue about right and wrong, it was something he could easily get past.

‘I see. Is this the downside of regression?’

Krasche vaguely realized why Arthur had come to hate regression.

Now, Aliod and Aliod, who drank the poison stew, were different people.

And the two will definitely move on to different lines.

Because the person named Krashu has changed.

Arthur couldn’t stand this sense of alienation, and he must have been robbed of his return after all.

‘Is the problem Aliod’s daughter?’

Aliod is useful.

His assistant skills are also excellent enough to serve as the butler in direct charge of Balheim.

It was good to have Ali Aude by her side, at least until she was in Cheongsong Hall.

Besides, Krashu knew what Aliod’s daughter’s terminal disease was.

And even how to solve it.

‘I’ll solve this gradually.’

Now, the secret library came first.

Krashu felt a little excited for the first time in a while.

And with that in mind, I opened the door to the secret library.

Hoo-wook-

A dusty wind blew from inside.

I don’t really care about this amount of dust, perhaps because I’ve been rolling around in the world’s erosion.

So, Krashu moved his feet inside.

After his eyes got used to the darkness, he began to see the inside clearly.

The first thing that caught my eye was the book on the old bookshelf.

The books here were esoteric books containing the knowledge of our ancestors.

For Valheim, a natural genius, secret writing is actually meaningless.

They have already concentrated all the blessings of Valheim into their bodies at the time they were born.

But why is there such an esoteric book in Valheim’s library?

The answer is simple.

‘Because this place is only for the half-fun.’

Those who produced the Secret Book of Valheim were the half-punchers of Valheim.
