《The Inhabitants》Chapter 9. A Good Place to Sleep
Advertisement
Lando walked towards the warehouse to look for items that could be used. After all he left his mining equipment outside because it was too conspicuous. Lando only had a few packs of coal with him.
Lando arrived at the warehouse, but after wandering around he didn't find much to use. Lando couldn't find the weaponry or plantation tools he wanted. Perhaps those things are stored somewhere else. Lando only found a pile of cloth inside. He actually also found a saw and a small hammer, but the saw was too thin and flexible and the hammer too small to do any damage. Lando wasn't sure he could use it as weapon. Finally Lando and find a place to hide.
Soon a commotion broke out. The guards ran for help. The two bigest barn caught fire. A guard exited the main building with Anderson and they walked towards the fire site. Lando took advantage of the commotion to sneak into the main building.
Lando already memorized every part of the main building and quickly arrived at the master room. At first Lando was worried about meeting Elisa inside, but apparently no one was there. Lando then began his search. He always felt that Elisa kept a gun in this room. Unfortunately, despite searching all over the place, Lando couldn't find it. Lando only found a storage made of special wood wich harder than ordinary wood. Lando didn't touch it for now, he didn't want to arouse suspicion by breaking something.
Lando went into the kitchen and grabbed some knives. He also made sure a few things were in the kitchen before walking into another room.
Lando arrived at a room that was quite spacious, more than 50 square meters. There are 10 pairs of bunk beds. This room is similar to a child's bed in the orphanage, but on a larger scale. Lando walked around the room, locking the windows and ventilation holes above it. The ventilation holes do have a cover because when it rains water can flow in.

After making sure there were no more openings other than the door, Lando roasted the coals placed under some of beds. Lando learned this metode while in the mine. He discovered that when coals were roasted, they could produce toxic gases that damage the lungs. Ordinary people would experience shortness of breath after a while inhaling the poisonous gas.
Lando then went into a wardrobe and waited for the guards who were exhausted after putting out the fire to rest. From the start, Lando had not only intended to kill Anderson. He wanted to destroy him.
Meanwhile, in another location, the fire has been controlled. Anderson stood watching his men and workers busy pulling the cattle away. There were also some who were carrying water to water the surrounding area of the burning barns. Anderson could only prevent the fire from spreading and allow what was already burning to burn out.
'Now that i think about it, what was the purpose of setting fire to the barns?' Anderson's heart felt that something was wrong. 'If this is an attack, it shouldn't just stop at the barns. Maybe this is a distraction?'
Anderson immediately went to the armory. This armory was in a place quite far from the main building of Wilburg house. From the outside, this armory looks like a small building, but inside there are 8 guards each turn who even under any circumstances they had to stay on guard. Inside there is an entrance to the underground which was the real armory room. There were about 50 soldiers in it. They are part of the army guarding around the village who is reporting or restocking weapons. This was where the Hindibel government arms center in the city and Anderson's responsibility now.
Anderson questioned the soldiers on guard, but they said they didn't find anything out of the ordinary. He also got the same answer from the soldiers serving inside. Anderson left feeling uneasy. He then went to the main building, the front gate, and several corners of the fence. All the same, Anderson didn't find any major happened.

Anderson never thought the culprit was Lando. A few days ago he heard that Lando had died from one of his people at the orphanage. Lando reportedly committed suicide after someone found his trace entering the forbidden mine.
Meanwhile, Lando was lying on a comfortable pile of cloth in the closet. Lando felt sleepy after a few days of not sleeping. He didn't know that people he knew thought he was dead.

(Dropped) Crown of the martyr and martyr of the Crown.
An undisputed being sits upon his throne, the Crown of damnation adorning his head. One gaze enough to make gods tremble, and one wave of his hand enough to make the mightiest of demons flee. An unfathomable cataclysm will surely arrive when such a being is slain and grasps another chance to walk among the living. This is a story of a monarch more ancient than time itself defying the absolution of death in his eternal strive to accomplish his primordial goal. And the Crown gazes on ravenously, its curse awaiting its next martyr. --- Story with an overpowered mc who still thinks with his brain, not muscles. I believe I put my own twist on the reincarnation trope. The story is mostly told from third person view with mc’s perspective. New chapters are released 3 times a week. --- This is an updated synopsis after requests from viewers. --- I do not own the cover picture.
