My Second Life Is A Heroic Power Fantasy 55 Sharing The Wealth

Looking at the figurine in her hands, she held it up between her thumb and index finger for the other two to see.

To Jack, it looked like a small carving of a knight, maybe about two inches long, in full plate armor and a full helm that covered his face. In one hand, he held a longsword. In the other, a large kite s.h.i.+eld. To Jack, it looked a bit like an ornately carved chess piece.

"Well, this is interesting..." Rose said, bringing the figurine closer to her face. After a moment of inspecting it closer, she dropped it back into the palm of her hand.

"What do you suppose it is?" She asked the two of them.

Jack shrugged.

"I dunno. Just looks like a little game piece to me." He said, then added, "I kinda like it."

"Might be magical." Madeleine said.

"Maybe." Rose said, looking at the small figurine in her hand. She closed her hand and held it out towards Jack.

"Well, if it's magical, it's no use to me." She said. "You should take it."

"Really?" Jack said as she dropped the piece in his hand. "Thanks!"

"Yeah. I'm glad you want it, because I'd rather have the blades anyways." Rose said, smiling.

She reached out and grabbed the three daggers and the pouches, and picking them up and setting them in her lap before grabbing the small wooden case and handing it to Jack, who'd scooped up the other two pouches.

Looking inside the leather pouches, Jack found a decent amount of coins. Counting everything out, he'd just gotten about 35 gold, about as many silver, and twice as many copper pieces. He wasn't sure that that was very much, but since it was the first money he'd ever had in this world, he felt downright wealthy having it.

He combined all of the coins into a single one of the pouches, then stuck it into his pack, along with the figurine, which he'd returned to its wooden case. He get the sneaking suspicion that there was something more to the figurine than just being a silly little trinket, but that'd probably take him some time to figure out. If he was super lucky, maybe it'd be something awesome like the figurines of power in the old tabletop games he played that came to life and did things for their owners, like fight, or deliver messages, or other sorts of useful things. But, those all had some sort of command word or something to activate them, and they also had all sorts of limitations, so he'd have to figure those out too.

All of this, of course, a.s.suming this was anything other than a stone action figure. Which it probably wasn't, honestly.

He looked over at Madeleine, who was currently polis.h.i.+ng a dagger Jack hadn't noticed amongst the rest of the loot. It was decidedly nicer than the three that had been handed to Rose, with a handle that looked made of solid silver, with several red gemstones set into the hilt. The blade was completely devoid of any marks or blemishes, and had a faint multi-colored l.u.s.ter when the light struck it just right.

Noticing Jack looking at the blade, Madeleine sheathed it.

"I'm the only one without a weapon, so I took the nicest one. I figured you two will probably need my help, even though I'm a better sneak than a fighter." She said, stowing the dagger inside her pack again. After that, she grabbed the parchment rolls off the ground beside her.

"And these are scrolls for Ellie, after we get her out." She said, sticking them in the bag.

"IF we get her out." Rose said, darkening slightly.

Madeleine looked at her sister, her face serious.

"When."
