"When did you buy it?" Isabel asked, glancing back.
"It's not long after we moved to this city, it's for storing weapons," Rose replied.
The three people in the car then got out, but didn't move immediately, waiting for Hunter and the others to start transporting the gold first.
As before, they put each piece of gold into they bag.
Here, things were faster because they didn't have to walk far.
Arthur and the other two only entered the church after the mercenaries had entered.
Nova was still following them, keeping a little distance because there was Rose in front of her.
The woman kept glancing at her with eyes that hid a grudge.
The inside of the church was completely unkempt. The chairs were already cracked, probably going to collapse if sat on.
The church was divided into two rooms, behind the smaller room where there was a wooden staircase leading to the underground.
It was quite a small staircase and each step was quite far away from each other.
Isabel would have been terrified of going down that staircase if it wasn't for the fact that she was used to jumping up and down on tree branches.
The good thing was that the mercenaries had fixed the electricity in the church, the lights below were really bright so everything was clearly visible.
After passing through the stairs, Arthur and the others arrived at a spacious basement, larger than the church itself. It seemed to include the churchyard as well.
Although it was a bit dusty, but overall it was still a nice place.
BANG! BANG!
The mercenaries opened the bags they were carrying and then dropped all the gold inside.
Instantly, the shiny objects filled the floor, making Nova, who was seeing it for the first time, open her mouth and gulp.
"Maybe you should take some home," Arthur said to her, making her surprised again.
For a moment, she blushed and was happy at the same time when she realized Arthur was watching her.
"Is it okay?" she asked hesitantly.
This was gold whose single bar was worth hundreds of thousands of Euros. Even though she was a Werewolf, since her economy was really tight, bringing home such an expensive object scared her.
Plus, Arthur said to bring a few, which meant more than one.
If she brought a dozen kilograms of gold, she was worried that her father would jump in fright.
"The important thing is that it's not found by others and if you want to sell it, make sure it's already different gold," Arthur replied.
He wasn't so worried about the woman.
Although she seemed helpless, she was still not the type to be careless or to keep secrets. No matter what, she and her father managed to live like ordinary people for many years without being noticed by anyone despite the fact that they were Werewolves.
They even kept a pack of wolves in this city.
Nova started thinking again after hearing Arthur's answer.
Meanwhile, Rose glanced at the girl before looking at Arthur.
"Boss, 10 more minutes before the bomb explodes, we can see the process through the camera," she said, pausing and then asking, "do you want to see it?"
"No need, just let me know if anything goes wrong," Arthur replied.
He wasn't that interested in this thing called an explosion.

Logan and Owen were staying at one of the most luxurious hotels. Each was in a presidential suite.
Of course, it was the Armstrong Family hotel itself.
What was unique about this hotel was actually that it could keep a clear eye on the forest north of the city.
If you use a long-range telescope from the highest floor of the hotel, you can even see the area where the wooden house is located.
Owen, after finishing a warm shower, stood in front of the northern glass wall, gazing at the distant scenery while smoking a cigar.
He played music from his cell phone and occasionally shook his head.
After returning home from Isabel's house, he was very upset, but he was someone with unlimited money. No matter how bad his mood was, he could easily recover it with various kinds of entertainment.
This was the advantage of having a lot of money. Some people said that if you were too rich, you would soon get bored, but Owen who had been rich since he was a baby never felt that way because there were too many things that money could buy.
Even at this age, he can only buy a few things and unfortunately there is always something new every day.
He thought it was impossible to be bored as long as he had money.
As for those who say that having too much money will make life boring, for him it is just the nonsense of people who lack love for the world.
"Mm!"
When he wanted to drink, he squinted his eyes because faintly, he saw a light in the middle of the forest in the distance.
It was small, of course, but with such a long distance, the light must have been quite large.
Thinking about his family's gold there, Owen's expression quickly became ugly and panicked.
He hurriedly picked up the telescope that lay on the table's ajas.
However, before he could use the telescope, his cell phone suddenly rang loudly, making him panic even more as his cell phone was set up so that if a certain person called him, the ringing sound would be louder.
With trembling hands, he took out hos cell phone.
Seeing the name of the person calling, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Although his hands were trembling, his movements when pressing the accept button were quite fast and got faster as he placed the phone next to his ear.
"U-uncle, what's wrong?" He asked in a faltering voice.
"You're in Vera, right? All the gold there has been stolen, hurry up and investigate, ask General James for help," the person who called him replied.
"H-how is that possible?" Despite seeing something in the forest, Owen still looked incredulous or rather he refused to believe.
"All the swallow CCTVs were manipulated, and when they were just recovering, a bomb suddenly exploded." The person explained.
"Hurry up and go, search until the thieves are found or I will reduce your wealth!"
The phone connection was disconnected right after that, leaving Owen with an expression like he wanted to cry.
However, he immediately gritted his teeth.
"Who is it, who so dares to steal the Armstrong Family's treasure?" He shouted loudly with his face flushed with anger.
