Chương 8: CHAPTER 8
"Sir, are you sure we will rob the Rose Manor? Isn't it Lady Gabby's Rose Manor? I heard she is an influential person in this Kingdom even the King doesn't want to offend her." Said someone was wearing all black to the leader.
Some people got information that Lady Gabby put her treasure in the Rose Manor so that they were tempted and cooperated with the nobles. They are also equipped with some magical equipment if there is something they don't want.
"You take it easy, said the noble the girl looks weak. Won't he give a little for us? She's too greedy for a little girl with that much treasure." Replied the head of the Marauder.
"I'm not sure, sir." Said one member of the Robbers.
"Those of you who want to retreat, please leave, but don't blame me if your life isn't calm by betraying that noble." Reply to the head of the Marauders.
"If we can get some treasures, we will leave this country, and we will be rich even if we only steal some." continued the head of the Robber.
They entered the pavilion, which was so wide. They also wondered how rich Lady Gabby was, that the pavilion alone was almost as big as the royal palace.
Even though the Rose Manor is in the area of the Spinx Kingdom, why are only a few people aware of it. Luckily the nobles knew the location of the Rose Manor, which was located in the northern part of the Spinx Kingdom but close to the forest of death.
While inside one of the Rose Manor Pavilions, they felt a little strange. Why was this Pavilion empty without any guards or guards? But the Marauders didn't care as long as the treasure was in the Rose Manor, they would drain its contents.
They went on and on and on and on in every room of the Pavillion in the Rose Manor until they came to a room with a very large door. The head of the robber opened the door and peeked inside the room. How surprised the chief robber was to see piles of gold and diamonds scattered in the room. The head of the robbers opened the door wide and immediately ran into the pile of gold.
The chief robber laughed loudly while tossing the gold while shouting. "I am rich… I am rich." Screamed the chief robber.
The other robbers also came in and cheered. Unbeknownst to them, a figure was staring at them hungrily.
While they were still rejoicing on the pile of gold, suddenly the door slammed shut, making them all startled.
Some robbers were entangled by tree roots that suddenly shot out of the floor. The chief robber took out his magic sword and cut the roots to help his comrade.
What a surprise the chief robber couldn't cut the roots with his magic sword. As a result, he was entangled by the roots. They all screamed as the coils of the roots grew stronger and issued thorns that pierced their bodies until they bled.
After a long time, they were tormented by that root. The door opened, and a butler entered the room with a charming smile.
The robbers screamed for help at the butler to release them, but instead, the butler smiled, even more, making the robbers even more frightened.
The butler let their torment continue until they fainted. The roots moved to drag the fifteen robbers into the cellar for further torture.

As usual in the forest palace of death, Gabby was lazing on Shushu's lap and being fed wine by Scarla. Gabby waits for Baba to get information about the robbers being tortured by one of Groot's contract beasts.
Groot is a magical beast in the form of a tree man found two years ago in the forest of death while Gabby was walking in the forest of death.
Not long after, Baba came with a big smile. Scarla was nervous herself seeing Baba walking towards them.
"Miss Gabby, looks like we'll get to Dekhel town sooner than we thought," said Baba without further ado.
"You look pretty sure, Baba. It seems the person behind the theft is quite influential." Gabby replied, raising an eyebrow.
"That's right, miss, the masterminds are Count Riel and the Minister of Finance. I have reported this to the King. It made the King lose face."
"You are right, Baba, but you mean rudely, right? considering they are not ordinary people and have raised the war flag at me." Gabby replied with a smirk.
"Shushu, Scarla, prepare yourselves." Gabby continued making them grin.

"Are they crazy?" King Watson said, raising his voice. "Where are the Minister and Count Riel? I will behead those who have caused such a big problem." He continued with the burning emotions of having lost face to Lady Gabby.
Knowing the theft incident at one of Lady Gabby's residences made the King furious. The King gathered the Ministers and several influential Nobles in the palace to resolve the incident.
"What should we do, Your Majesty?" asked the Minister of Defense to the King, further angering the King.
"You're asking me, who am I asking?" The King's reply echoed through the room. "That girl is not a random person considering the quality of our weapons produced by her, and it is not impossible that this made the girl very angry and defected," Of course, the kingdom will lose money considering how good the quality of the weapons produced by the company is plus the tribute given every year. "After all, we have to be on the girl's side. We'd better help her out and compensate her, considering that girl doesn't seem like she's going to stand still." continued King Watson.
The Ministers and Nobles whispered to each other. Why be on the side of the girl alone when it would be more profitable if they were on the side of the Minister of Finance and Count Riel.
"Your Majesty, I don't think it's in our favour if we side with the girl. We'd better help the Minister of Finance and Count Riel." Marquess Filarl spoke up.
"Besides, we can get all the companies. Wouldn't it be very profitable for this kingdom if all the efforts were the kingdom that held the authority." he continued slyly.
The king thought for a moment. Is it possible to remember that the girl is so mysterious that no one even knows her family. "Are you sure, Marquess? it's the same as raising the war flag on that girl." The King said a little disapprovingly because he wanted to propose to Lady Gabby for the Crown Prince.
"You need not fear your majesty, we will devise a plan, and the nobles agree with Marquess Filarl anyway." Interrupted the Sphinx Kingdom's Minister of Defense.
"Okay. But if we can try, we don't have to go to war." Reply King.
The defeated king decides to help the Minister of Finance and Count Riel against Lady Gabby. The king still thinks, is this something good? the king is afraid this will only backfire on him.
In contrast, Marquess Filarl was already very impatient to bring down Lady Gabby and take all her power. If he got all that, he would enslave the girl for him remembering her goddess-like beauty.
