Bell decides to go to the abandoned park

Bell: sigh I have ****. I better go there.

Not having any other options, Bell puts on his brown boots and heads out of his hotel room. He also decided to bring his backup knife with him just in case.

Later on, it was dark out, almost midnight. Bell left the hotel and heads outside.

Bell: Ok. The note said the abandoned park is south of the city. I better get moving. It’s almost midnight.

Bell said as he starts heading south of Swindleria. 10 minutes later, he arrived at the abandoned park.

Bell: Wow. There’s literally no one here. Even the houses at this park area are empty. No wonder this part of the city’s abandoned. Well, it’s midnight now. Where are these thieves?

Bell said as he looks around. After standing and waiting for a minute or two, he sees someone. A person wearing a hood and a mask.

???: So you decided to show up.

The mysterious person’s voice sounded female.

Bell: Who are you? And why did you steal my stuff?

Stealth Phantom: My name is the stealth phantom. Stealing’s my specialty, because no one can catch me or notice me. And I stole your stuff because you’re the famous adventurer that beat the Freya Familia from the War game. Your equipment will fetch a very big price. I am curious about this knife though.

The stealth phantom said as she holds up Bell’s special weapon, the Hestia knife.

Bell: My knife! That belongs to me!

Stealth phantom: I can tell. I did some research and apparently the powers of this knife only works for you. And for anyone else, it might as well be a normal knife.

Bell: Well I’m here now, so give it back to me!

Stealth phantom: Heehee. Oh I will give it back to you…..for a price.

Bell was confused hearing that. What more did this phantom thief want?

Bell: A price? W-What kind of price? What is it that you want?

Bell said, looking a little bit nervous, because something was telling him that he was not gonna like this.

Stealth phantom: Strip.

Bell’s eyes went wide hearing that one word.

Bell: blushed W-W-What?!

Stealth phantom: You heard me. Strip. If you want your precious special knife back, take off all of your clothes. And after that, do a little dance.

Bell blushes a lot hearing that, especially the dance part. He didn’t want to be butt naked again. And dancing naked would be even more embarrassing.

Bell: blushes W-What?! No way! Why would I do that and humiliate myself for your entertainment?!

Stealth phantom: Because one, I know this knife means a lot to you because your Goddess Hestia gave you this, so you’d do anything to get it back. And two, I’m not giving you any choice.

Bell: Grrr! You rotten blackmailing thief!

Bell said, getting annoyed at this.

Stealth phantom: Heehee! I can see the fierce look in your eyes. Don’t even think about trying to fight me. You may be a Lv. 5 adventurer, but I’m a lot tougher than you think, and faster too.

Bell looks at this thief and she may be right. She does look tough. Does Bell want to try to fight the stealth phantom to get his stuff back, or submit to her demands.

Stealth phantom: Well? What will it be, Bell? Your precious knife? Or your dignity?
