Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 39

'Licia, I'm starting to wonder if I made the right decision to leave home.After my mother died, I blamed myself so much, but I couldn't write to you about my grief.

Last week, I was almost caught by people from the church. Although I suffered a lot of injuries, my life was preserved.I now watch the coastline with a nobleman who has left home, on an unnamed island near the Eye of the Dead Sea.Sea winds can sometimes damage our bases.

I didn't think about it, and finally got you involved in this matter, I just hope it's not a bad thing.

Although Mr. Flindoner loves money, he is very principled in his work.

Also, please do not agree to their entreaties to pull you into the organization under any circumstances.

I just hope you, and father and Ashe are safe. '

The letter was very brief, and it could be seen from the handwriting that her brother Keith was really seriously injured, and there were signs of shaking in several places.

"Burn it when you're done reading it." Flindonna turned over a page of the ledger and said without looking up.

Licia nodded, folded the letter paper four times, silently pointed the writing end to the flame of the oil lamp, and when the tongue of flame burned her fingers, she yelled in surprise, then threw her hand into the Fulindona In the prepared basin.

"By the way, next day off, if you have time, go to the bakery on Croatia Street. I asked someone to help you find a book, the Dark Mountain Adventure Manual." Ink on, casually speaking.

"Thank you."

Flindoner paused and sighed. "But books cost money, thirty gold coins."

Licia froze for a moment, so does he know how many gold coins he brought today?

"I have to go home in a carriage." Licia actually only wanted to take away one gold coin.

"Go out and turn left. I'll fix the carriage for you. You can go wherever you want."

Licia froze for a moment, then thought about it again, next month she would be able to receive this season's taxes, and thirty gold coins was really nothing to her.

"Okay." She poured out the purse and counted it again before leaving the bookstore.

"Yuga?!" Licia found that there was already a person sitting in the carriage. "You, you, why would you?"

Yuga took out a small golden box from his coat, which was the same as the box containing the dragon scales at the auction.

Licia was sweating coldly, and the carriage had already begun to move slowly.

He probably stole that dragon scale.

"I saw you at the Black Pearl Circus." Seeing Licia's dull expression, he thought it was her panic after being discovered, so he hurriedly said. "I'm not going to ask why you're there."

Yuga placed the golden velvet box next to Licia, and Licia saw that his cuffs were already turning white. It seemed that even the commoner families working for the royal family were not rich.

"Although I can't help you get real dragon scales, I found imitation dragon scales." Yuga mustered up his courage and looked at Licia. "If you have any difficulties, I can also help."

Yuga finished all the words in one breath.

But Licia felt a little scared. From a rational analysis, Yuga is so frank and sincere, she should be moved, and this is the only one she has seen so far that does not have a degree of favorability and dislike on the top of her head. For her Said to be a normal person.

"I'm sorry, I." Licia was about to say some soothing words, but Yuga became very flustered after hearing the apology.

"Is it because I'm a civilian?"

"No, it's not because of this." Licia herself didn't know if it was subtly affected by her 17 years of aristocratic career. She never thought of having feelings for male civilians, but she still strongly denied it. "Tell me something else, Senior Yuga, do you really plan to stay in the academy as Pegasus teachers?"

The carriage was still moving, she definitely couldn't let Yuga get off the carriage at this time.

"Yes, Miss Lycia. I will be a teacher for a while." He said 'temporarily' emphatically.

"Hmm. That's fine," Lycia replied casually, and began to think of another topic for the embarrassing schedule.

"I work at Black Pearl not just to make money." Yuga eagerly wanted to reveal his mysterious other side.

"Do they pay high wages? I mean, the Black Pearl Circus." Licia smiled and moved a little away from the golden velvet box.

"Not high. No one would go to the Black Pearl for money." Yuga had already lowered his head. He clearly remembered that the noble lady paid a lot of attention to him. He could feel it. He thought that the noble lady must have I am a little surprised by myself.

When Licia was in a daze, Yuga suddenly knelt down on the carriage floor, and then held Licia's right hand. "As long as you are willing to accept my love, I am willing to do anything, can I be your lover?"

Licia wanted to jump out of the car right away. Although she knew that the customs in this world were similar to the European Middle Ages, she still couldn't accept this kind of courtship that was not at all tactful.

"Yujia, I don't need a lover." But Licia still pretended to be calm and had seen the world. "I am the heir of the Campbell family. A lover is just a burden."

After she finished speaking, she thought about it in her heart, and even admired herself a little.

She lifted the curtain, and the carriage bumped onto the country road.

"Then, Yuga, I beg you now to jump out of the window." Lycia sank into her superb acting skills, and then raised her chin. "I don't want news that the heir of the Campbell family has started looking for a lover tomorrow."

Yuga suddenly took a deep look at her as if he felt Licia's encouragement and importance to him from her pretended indifference. "Yes, as you wish."

Then jumped out of the window.

"Miss, did you throw something out!" the coachman yelled, when Yuga came in, he set up a magic circle, so the coachman couldn't hear the voices inside, but an adult male jumped off the carriage, he still noticed it immediately Something is wrong.

"Nothing, just some useless stuff."

"Tsk, what a wayward noble lady, I just hope you don't get caught in my wheel."

Licia heard the coachman's nagging, and responded loudly to him. "No, I threw it far, sir."

The coachman shut his mouth tightly and dared not say anything more.

"Licia, why did you go home today?" Michelle Campbell was sitting in front of the fireplace reading the newspaper, waiting for dinner.

"Father, good afternoon, I want to get two sets of clothes." After making up a reason, Licia planned to go upstairs.

"Good afternoon, sit with me, Licia." Mi Xiu asked the servant to bring a chair.

Lycia glanced at the stairs and sat down beside her father. "Where's my sister? Is she at home?"

Mi Xiu took off his glasses, and put the newspaper and glasses on the tray carried by the servant. "Bring some fruit here."

"She is playing chess with Duke Nuken." Michelle Campbell seemed to have completely recovered from the pain of losing his wife and being dismissed from office.
