Chapter 502 Blueprints

"Hmm?" Rose turned around, hurriedly approaching Noel since she was curious about what kind of thing her father left behind.

It was actually a wooden box. The exterior was badly damaged due to the weathering, but there was no hole in it, so the contents should be safe.

"What is this box" Noel muttered while looking at this old box. Rose was 25 years old, and with her living here as long as she could remember, it was clear that this box was older than her age.

In other words, this box was around thirty years old. So, they had to be careful when opening it.

"Let's open it." Noel put the box down, allowing Rose to open it. This was the item that her father left behind for her, so she had all the right to open it.

Rose gently wiped off the soil so that she could grab the lock. It might be due to the pa.s.sing of time, but when she tried to open the lock, it fell apart.

The box ended up opening by itself. Rose was startled at first, but she still lifted the lid, wanting to see what was inside.

"This is" Rose was confused. Noel took a peek inside and found one book and a few pieces of paper.

"What is this?" Noel frowned, wondering what these papers contained. After all, it was already so old that the content inside it might not be relevant anymore.

Rose grabbed the book first as she recognized the words in this book.

"This handwriting It's my father's handwriting." Rose gasped. Normal villagers might not have enough knowledge to write, but most of the village chiefs could do it. So, it wasn't that abnormal to see her father write something.

However, the words that were written in that book were what shocked her the most.

"If anyone can find this book, it will be my daughter. If you end up finding this notebook, it means I have died.

"I don't know what kind of event will unfold in the future, but I'm writing this note to tell you about three important things.

"The first thing is my name. My name is not Billy. My real name is Emmanuel, and I am the knight captain of the Rumbledane Family.

"The Rumbledane Family is a baron family that is located in the west of the kingdom. But it has been destroyed by a raid by the Supreme Devil Organization.

"The reason for that raid is all these things I've left behind. This is the second thing I want to tell you.

"These papers contain information about a certain item. I found them during an exploration with the knights of the barony in a ruin. That ruin seems to be holding some knowledge about past civilizations.

"Although we didn't understand a single thing about their language, we'd got some information regarding their use.

"According to the people who had read them, these papers were actually blueprints for two items. The first would be the iron spring and the second one was an item that had elastic characteristics, but it seemed to be durable enough to endure many harsh environments.

"These blueprints must be the reasons why the barony was raided. At that time, there were many jealous people that wanted to get these two blueprints. So, there was also a chance that they were working with the Supreme Devil Organization.

"There were three influences that might get involved in this. They were Baron Alpenflaw, Baroness Litheart, and Count Serpentswift.

"And this is related to the last thing I want to tell you. I got this from the baron I served so that I could pa.s.s it to someone worthy enough to get it.

"According to the baron, these two blueprints are worth more than a barony. Their potential was limitless and it could become the specialty of a territory and make it prosper.

"So, I'm going to give these two blueprints to you. I can only give you these two like this because, by the time you find these blueprints, not many should still remember them.

"If you want to sell them, make sure you find a good merchant or a good n.o.ble. But be careful as they might kill you and steal these blueprints from you.

"If you want to become a n.o.ble by marrying into their family, these blueprints shall be the dowry. I hope that they can take good care of my daughter.

"Still, I believe that you are smart enough to handle this matter. If you don't want anything to do with it, then burn these blueprints. Humanity might lose important blueprints, but the only humans I care about at this point are your mother and you. So, please do what you want with them.

"I'll be watching over you from here. I love you, sweetheart. Please lead a happy life."

"" Rose closed her eyes, trying hard to not cry. She never thought that her father would leave behind something this important.

Although she didn't know whether the blueprints were really worth that much or not, if they did, she would gain a lot of things in this life with them.

Noel didn't read the books. He was examining the blueprints, only to find them confusing. As expected, he wasn't a blacksmith, so he didn't understand what they were trying to do.

Looking at his confused look, Rose couldn't help but say, "Noel. These two are ancient blueprints from past civilizations. I think it's better to measure it from a trustworthy blacksmith. I want to give these two blueprints to you to thank you for avenging my family"

"Huh?" Noel was confused because he didn't understand the blueprints and didn't read the explanation.

Meanwhile, Rose was only smiling at him as if she didn't plan to explain much about it. She only said, "Well, these two blueprints are highly sought and it will be dangerous just to carry them around. So, it's better to let a blacksmith see it and decide what to do after that."

"" Noel remained silent, not knowing what to say.

On the other hand, Rose added inwardly, 'Sorry, Dad. I think I've found another option that is different from the ones you gave. I'll be giving this to Noel because I know that he will take care of the blueprints well. And as an expert of the Demon Relief Squad, I don't need money since my strength is enough to let me live leisurely for the rest of my life. So, I'm going to dedicate them to Noel.'
