Dronacharya took a full 3 hours to crawl at an ants speed to reach the walls of the vault. He made sure as to not even breath or sigh loudly as the last thing he wanted at the moment was the delicate tunnel to collapse over his head.

There was barely any room to breathe and dronacharya felt claustrophobic for the first time in his life ,as he had little to no room to maneuver at all.

Against all odds however he carefully started to assemble his gear as he held the sunstick in his mouth .

Even though drool was dripping from his lips at the moment from holding the stick in his mouth for wayy to long , dronacharya did not mind it at all as he was laser focused on creating a sound containment inscription on three different locations on the wall ahead of him to ensure that all sounds of the wall sizzling would be suppressed completely and the inscriptions would not fade away due to the walls corrosion.

The last theif in parallax’s memory made a mistake here , as although he made a sound suppressing inscription , it sizzled our alongside the use of the acid and hence sound of his robbery was leaked.

Learning from the mistake of his predecessor , Dronacharya decided to make 3 seperate inscriptions and use a very slow drip melting approach to only open a hole big enough for his body to pass through while crawling.

Dronacharya then wore gloves made of mithril and took out a vial of the strongest acid in the world that could even melt epic rated metals in a split second , as he carefully started to bring one drop into contact with the metal wall at a time.

The gloves and the acid costed dronacharya the entirety of his remaining fortune as he had to even pawn off some of his precious equipment at a high interest rate for today’s heist.

If this project failed he would reach a rock bottom in life with him literally becoming a beggar with nothing to show for his immense skill-set.

Determined not to let it happen , he worked with utmost precision.

With revenge on shakuni in his mind and calmness in his heart , dronacharya corroded the outer walls of the vault , one acidic drop at a time.

( Jhonny’s POV )

Jhonny pretended to pray to beniogre but internally he was absolutely freaking out.

The pope had used his influence to empty the building of all other devouts as he was the only one in the prayer hall praying in absolute silence.

Internally Jhonny thought ‘ Dumb dumb dumb , Jhonny you are dumb , The witch you avoided still backstabbed you.

You knew she was trouble , yet you still could not avoid her trap.

You became like the dumb yume who likes the big breasted models in the porn comics. Only the flat one’s are worthy of paying any attention. You should have known when you looked at her voluptuous body that she was a succubus.

IDIOT! ‘.

However externally he had the most brilliant expressions as his eyes became moist as if he was genuinely praying with an open heart to beniogre.

The priestess was impressed as she whispered to the pope , ” The insights of this man are something else . He says he loves only the goddess and his words are as wise as yours. I think this man is special , look how piously he prays to beniogre…. He has tears in his eyes , he feels blessed in her presence. ”

If only the priestess knew that Jhonny was imagining her naked body at the moment she would instantly puke one litre of blood.

The pope stroked his beard and said ” Indeed , not many can reject me to pray to the godess first , such character is indeed admirable. However we still don’t know his reason for today’s visit , it’s not a short distance from Purplehaze city to here “.

After Jhonny was done praying the pope said ” Sir Jhonny , we are delighted to have you here , how is pope shakuni? I hope all is well in Purplehaze city “.

Although the pope did not explicitly ask Jhonny why he was here , this was jhonny’s cue to make things up.

” Let’s cut to the chase , you and me both know that this is all pleasantry , your true intention is to ask me why i am here …. “. Jhonny said as he looked eye to eye to the pope , unpertubed by the level difference.

” Initially i planned to come as a common man and leave as a common man as i did not even enter the city under my own name and went to great lengths as to avoid detection.

For my guild and my guildmaster , I’m on a mission , but in reality I’m here for a cause “.

The pope raised an eyebrow as to this reveal as he said ” What cause …? “.

At this moment Jhonny put on his acting shoes as he started to pace around the room and said ” The church of death …. As you may know , i have joined it as my official relegion ….. ”

” It was a spur of the moment decision made alongside the rest of my crewmates as while the entire guild was converting to the new relegion , i had to convert too because of the tremendous pressure i had to fit – in as one of the guilds elders …. But in my heart i knew i did wrong “.

The pope’s expression changed as he heard this as he instantly became sympathetic towards Jhonny and became all ears for his story.

Jhonny continued ” I had long given my heart to beniogre since the first time i felt her warmth while rebirth , the joy of life …. She gave it so willingly to othwrworlders , and yet i abandoned her .

I- i could never forgive myself for that “.

Jhonny started to wobble in his walk as he looked like a broken man , the priestess was moved to tears listening to his story.

” To stone for my sins i decided to walk towards the holy city in a pilgrimage , and for 6 days and 6 nights i walked towards the holy city , not telling anyone about my wherebouts until i laid exhausted on the muddy roads near death from the lack of water and energy.

I thought this is it . I would die and embrace the warmth of beniogre once more , however at that very second something incredible happened …. “.

Jhonny said as his face brightened and he looked towards the pope and the priestess with a smile.

After a long pause , Jhonny said ” Beniogre talked to me! “.

The expressions of the pope and the priestess changed drastically at this moment as their mouths were wide agape.

Looking at the reaction Jhonny thought ‘ That’s it , the succubus has orgasmed ‘.
