Mio nodded along with a small smile, glad that things had gone well. At the very least, she was glad things had gone well without too much risk. "Mm! We've been pretty lucky at least." She blinked, thinking that Ronja had good luck between the short cut and when there was a patrolling pair one even stumbled in his effort to fight back.

The incoming pirate though after Ronja's efforts made Mio tilt her head. Ronja powering her with Mana though was a significant boost, a lot of the time Mio's only real weakness had ever been the limited fuel efficiency of her mana to her magical art. Putting that on full display the moment Ronja helped her tail spread fanned out into multiple tails, her make up around her eyes thickening into black rings as she gestured with a hand. Her inky palm gesturing at him as if trying to smear ink causing the man to almost collapse into dust as if erasing him from a canvas. It was a higher level skill that cost a great deal, but with Ronja lending her energy it wasn't as taxing.

With a relieved breath once it was done, her tails came back together into the one before she tried to stretch. "It should be around here somewhere. They don't set up bedrolls too far from their good stuff right?" She spoke thinking that they would want to keep their goodies where they slept so it would be close at hand and hard to take from. Surely it wouldn't be too far.

Watching the show of ultimate power, Ronja widened her eyes seeing the powerful and skilled techniques trashing the enemy away with ease, making the Magia glance at Mio and clasping her hands together to hold Mio's, squeezing with a wide grin. "That was so strong! How did you even do that?" She beamed, wondering if that was a special attack.

"Ronja usually doesn't put too much faith on pirates making good decisions, but since it is a treasure they probably made intelligent choices for it!" Ronja said with a snicker, proceeding with Mio and starting to take a look around for the treasure, something that would prove to be a complicated task at first since it didn't seem like there was any treasure anywhere near.

But at some point, Ronja's eyes once again outlined a secret door, making her perk up and glance at Mio while nudging her gently before gesturing toward the spot that was found.

"Ronja wonders if they have made any traps for it..." She muttered closely, wondering about what could have been done there.

Mio giggled sweetly, not used to being so praised. In the end though she happily nodded her head, proud of herself and slightly sheepish at the same time. "It's not a special attack per-say, just really hard to do on the fly. It usually takes a bit of a set up and time, but since you were lending me a hand, it wasn't so bad to just throw it out." She tried to explain. Using Evoke to make her traps real wasn't particularly taxing, and carving some wounds with ink was even less troublesome, but erasing people by turning them into paintings or in this case sculptures was a lot harder to achieve. In truth it was even the second time she'd ever managed to do it since she started playing.

Though when Ronja found another secret door, Mio smiled brightly. "Mm! If that's the case maybe we should try and go our own way around?" Mio tried to suggest in thought, if the door was risky it might be better to not even use it. Instead Mio took a few paces to one side, trying to put her hand on the wall, once again trying to draw a door of her own. It took some time to create a realistic passageway enough but once it had been settled, she pushed the stone in revealing the same kind of secret tunnel that they'd used to hide when they first met. This time though it curved in a slight J shape into the portion of tunnel where the door had been. Beyond was a small hall, turned into a closet by a cave in, there were some supplies, barrels, crates, nothing that seemed to be 'treasure' in the traditional sense, but for Mio there was treasure among those supplies.

"It should be safe from this side right? They wouldn't trap a random wall or their treasures themselves right?" Mio proposed reaching out to try and open one barrel, then a crate curiously. One was simply filled with bread while the other had a barrel of gross looking oranges. Frowning Mio poured through different crates and boxes for anything of value, but Ronja would definitely notice a little lifted stone as if someone had taken a brick out of the floor and set it back down carefully. If she investigated it she'd find a small box with an elaborate handful of fancy jewelry which was likely the real treasure.

"In that case-" Ronja's eyes clicked, and she beamed with raised hands. "- We did a great teamwork!" The eyes flickered, hopping once and twice, making her metallic appendages clank softly, not loud enough to catch the attention of anyone who would be far. "Ronja could only shoot with ease because you were by her side." She chirped.

Ronja then took a step away, watching Mio do her magic to override any attempt of trap or complex puzzle that would be an obstacle for the two of them. The idea that she could just paint the reality was still intriguing for Ronja, but the Magia was in no place to babble about it, they still had to get the treasure and hop their butts out of there as quickly as possible.

"Ronja wouldn't be surprised if they did-" She said, with her eyes glowing in her Investigation Mode, not really spotting anything at first glance. "Ronja won't extend herself with it, but she didn't notice anything-" She muttered, then noticed a highlighted stone on the floor. "W-Wait, there is something there... It could be a pressure plate." She said, gently tugging Mio by her arm before pointing at the strange spot, taking one careful step closer to it and crouching to analyze it.

"Huuuh--" She managed to take out the 'plate', pulling out a box and standing to get it near her and Mio. For a moment, Ronja blinked unsure of how to open it, so she simply used her Magia strength to force it open, revealing the shiny jewels that reflected in the girls' eyes.
