"Do you understand?" Ask Dimas to number 52 to make sure he returns.

"Law.... You sure about that? Aren't you in trouble with that?" Asked Number 52 as if he still felt a little doubtful.

But the answer he received....

"Just calm. I don't care, but please hand over my gold details to the guards on my behalf. I was so hungry and unable to move because I just destroyed this chain just now." Said Dimas while hugging a cloth bag that seemed to contain something big.

The eye of Number 52 was fixed on the pouch that was held by Dimas tightly.

He continued to pay attention to the figure of Dimas or Number 30 lying helplessly.

"All right then." Reply Number 52 with a trembling voice.

With that sentence, finally the number 52 and 4 others who still survive to this day finally walked towards the entrance of the mine. Their only goal is to give up their mines and obtain food.

'Tap 'em! Taps! Aap!'

Their steps are pretty slow. It doesn't even seem to have the slightest bit of energy in it.

It was very natural for them to only eat leftover bones all this time. No decent food for a few days in this deadly winter.

Arriving at the gate, the soldiers with the number of 5 people had lined up neatly.

Their main weapon which was a sword was neatly mounted on their waist. Ready to be pulled whenever they need it.

But nevertheless....

"Hmm? Why just a little? Where are the others?"

Everyone fell silent because they no longer had the energy for that nonsense. However, number 52 according to Dimas's request immediately answered him.

"They have died in the mine, one man is dying." Briefly talk.

"Oh, so so. Alright.... Gather your results yesterday." Said one of the Soldiers who wore iron armor that was complete to the iron helmet.

All 'workers' lined up. Handing over the rocks and metals they found during work yesterday.

Some just give away trash. Therefore they only obtained a few bones.

Those who provide precious metals such as copper or silver will obtain a bowl of bone.

Number 52 is in the last row. Giving the result in the form of a chunk of silver given by Dimas.

"Hoo.... It's a big result. I'll give you this whole bone." Said the Soldier while giving a bag of bones equivalent to 3 pieces of the bowl.

Other workers who saw it were seen drooling in their drooling which quickly froze due to the cold.

Number 52 accepted it with pleasure.

Even though it was only a bone, but it was enough to slightly prop up his stomach.

But nevertheless.... It's not finished yet.

Number 52 immediately handed him some gold that he had just grabbed in a small bag in his clothes.

The soldier was confused, including his four friends.

How not, they obtained gold in large enough quantities. But they no longer have the reward to give to the Number 52.

A moment after the soldiers stared at each other....

"Master.... It's not really mine, it belongs to number 30. I stole from him, and he still has a lot of gold there. Can I get extra food with this?" Ask that Number 52 with a face that is clear.

At that moment, Number 52 acted out of Dimas's request. Dimas asked her to get food for him. But that's what the number 52 does.

But in contrast to his expectations, the soldiers actually smiled quite widely.

"Huh?! Is there a lot of gold?!"

"Didn't number 30 always find gold? I wouldn't be surprised if he hoarded it. How much does he have?"

The soldiers looked quite excited about the incident.

Number 52 immediately answered them one after another.

"Number 30 is indeed hoarding gold. He still has a large lump of gold that He breaks every day to give you.

But he took care of it very strongly. Even at this time.... Even if he is dying.... He still guards his gold. Not letting go at all." Obviously number 52 to those Soldiers.

Of course what he meant was Number 30 or Dimas itself.

Hearing that answer, the Soldiers immediately laughed out loud enough.

"Buahaha! It's dying! Nice one!"

"Number 52! Show me where he is!"

"That's right! If you do, I'll set you free!"

The soldiers also made an incredible offer.

Number 52 immediately nodded his head eagerly accepting the offer. He happily walked over to lead the Soldiers inside.

While the other four workers were busy eating the bones they obtained regardless of this incident in the least.

'Tap 'em! Taps! Aap!'

The sound of strong footsteps resounded within this cave.

Occasionally, jokes and laughter echoed within this mine. Makes the atmosphere much more lively.

Meanwhile at the front....

'Forgive me, 30.... But I really want to survive all this.... I'm sorry if I betrayed you.' Thought the Number 52 in his heart while continuing to lead the five Soldiers into the mine.

A few tens of minutes passed. The mines grew darker, forcing the soldiers to light the torches they were carrying just in case.

The warm flames gradually melted the frozen ice around this mine. The light illuminates their path to go in the direction the number 30 is located.

Finally, after a while....

They have arrived.

What was in front of them was a body lying helplessly, with a board bearing the number 30 now on its back.

"Master! That's her! He guarded his golden chunk tightly! Now you're gonna save me, right?!" Shouted Number 52 excitedly.

"Ooh.... So there he is, number 30. Frozen in the cold of the mine, sprawled from having no food, and dying awaiting death. Good job, 52. I'll set you free." Said one of the soldiers with a smile.

A sense of relief filled me with Number 52. Although he had just betrayed Dimas at his request to bring him food.

But nevertheless....

'BABB!!!'

A cold iron rod suddenly stuck right in the chest of Number 52.

The iron rod was none other than the sword of one of the existing Soldiers.

"eeh? Why?" Asked Number 52 while spewing out that thick red blood.

"Why? Of course, I released you, didn't I? Buahaha! This guy is stupid! Trust us!" Shouted the soldier while laughing.

Along with that, the other four soldiers also laughed.

The body of the number 52 was simply thrown to the ground. It was as if he was just taking out the trash, then left it alone.

After quite satisfied laughing, they also approached the number 30 who was lying limp.
