"It should be around here."
Mydei gripped a shovel and dug beneath some ruined walls in the inner city.
Looking at the muddy, tattered underwear he had dug up, Dog Shun gave him a disdainful look.
I'd be better off doing this myself...
"What kind of look is that?" Mydei frowned. "It's been so long. Who could possibly remember?"
"If you manage to dig something up, that's just good luck. Not finding anything is normal."
'Tch.' The Earth Beast set down its sign, snatched the little shovel from Mydei's hand with its claws, and ran off to dig in a corner.
"Hmph, what an arrogant fellow." Standing behind its massive body, Mydei said disdainfully:
"If you think the inner city is littered with treasure, you're dead wrong."
"Long before Castrum Kremnos declined, its last inhabitants had already stripped this place clean."
"Several treasure spots I remembered had already been dug up long ago."
Before Mydei could finish, Dog Shun dug up a box.
"Hm?"
Mydei hurried over and watched helplessly as Dog Shun crushed the box with its claws and rummaged through its contents.
Wrenches, hammers... all old tools used by craftsmen.
"And here I thought you might dig up something worthwhile."
Mydei smiled knowingly. "If you ask me, we should give up. It'd be safer for you to head back to Okhema sooner."
There were already more and more Black Tide monsters wandering nearby.
Before long, Castrum Kremnos would become a land of death.
'We're already here.' Holding up its sign, the Earth Beast looked toward the dilapidated palace behind Mydei.
Whether ministers or emperors, people usually hid things in palaces.
Cellars, bedroom walls, back gardens...
How could there be anything valuable outside the palace?
Only people of insufficient status, unable to hide their belongings within the main hall,
