Becoming a wet nurse is not the end of the story.

"We don't know, all we know is that he was surrounded by many Imperial soldiers protecting him, and the equipment they were wearing looked very powerful."

Volume 1: The Transmigrated Wet Nurse - Chapter 14: The Strange Man

In the afternoon, the entrance to Sacred Heart Hospital was still crowded with people, but their eyes were strangely looking to one side. They saw six local bullies tied up like human art pieces, piled up in a corner. Their miserable appearance made the ordinary townspeople feel very gratified.

They've always been extorting and blackmailing people, and now they've finally met their match. You've been bullying this young girl, don't you know she has powerful backers? The entire military camp is protecting her.

As for the mercenaries on the side, they didn't think anything of it, but they were very curious about the way they were tied up. After all, to become a mercenary, one must know some combat skills, and some powerful mercenaries are legitimate warriors, or even strong individuals.

It's one thing for the local bullies to harass ordinary civilians, but if they really provoke the mercenaries, these ruthless individuals will definitely teach them a lesson about what it means to break the law with violence.

Inside the house, Ailiya watched as Lin Xueyin's delicate hands moved, and beams of holy golden light continuously fell upon the wounded mercenaries, reflecting a compassionate light onto her fair face, as if she were a saint.

"Thank you so much, thank you so much."

Words of gratitude kept coming from the mercenaries who had been healed, making Aria feel a little happy for them. However, the girl being thanked had a furrowed brow. Although she politely saw the mercenaries out, she unusually did not let the wounded outside in.

Instead, he sat in his seat with a heavy heart, looking over and over the statue he had found in the Lone Wolf Cave.

"Yukine, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this statue?"

Originally, it was supposed to be taken by Ilga and the others, but Lin Xueyin was very interested in the statue, so she decided to leave it to her, since there was only one other statue like it anyway.

"No, it's nothing." Lin Xueyin looked up in confusion, but her answer did not satisfy Ailiya.

He pinched her cute little face hard. Although it looked a bit slender, it was surprisingly soft to the touch. "Look at you. You don't look like anything's wrong. Tell me honestly what's on your mind."

"Um, don't go too far."

With her cute hands waving around, Aria suddenly found herself enjoying the feeling of being teased, especially when her hands pinched Aria's little face. The incredibly comfortable sensation made her love it.

"I said, this hurts a lot, okay?"

Rubbing her cheeks, which were slightly red from being pinched, Lin Xueyin's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked as aggrieved as a kitten begging for its owner's affection.

Suppressing the urge to pull the other person into her arms and fondle them wantonly, Aria calmed her restless heart. "Then why don't you tell me what you were thinking just now?"

"Hmph, I... I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?" Seeing the other person raise their hands again, making a pinching motion towards her, Lin Xueyin waved her hands repeatedly, wishing she could shrink into the chair.

“Those mercenaries just now had a dark aura about them, very similar to the fleeting aura on the sculpture we encountered earlier. Moreover, this aura has been present on the mercenaries who have come here for treatment recently.”

"Hmm? You mean, there have been necromancers around here lately?" Hearing Lin Xueyin's words, Aria also frowned deeply.

Dark magic does exist among humans, but it is not prevalent, and few people specialize in studying it. However, there are many dark magicians among demons, and there are also records of related spells among vampires. The relationship between these two races and humans is not harmonious. Could it be that their people are lurking here?

"Yukine, can you find out the exact location?"

"No, I've asked around. They don't appear in the same places; in fact, they're quite scattered. It's hard to determine if this dark aura is man-made. It could also be carried by magical beasts, since their dark aura isn't very strong. However..."

Her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she remembered something. Lin Xueyin turned her gaze to the door, as if there was something outside that concerned her greatly.

The door was gently pushed open, and a man who had completely tucked into a cloak walked in under the disapproving gazes of the crowd, then turned around and tightly closed the door behind him.

"Who are you?" Although she wasn't carrying any weapons or equipment, Aria was still wary of the newcomer, whose strong aura made her very uncomfortable.

"Guests are welcome, please have a seat." Unlike Aria, Lin Xueyin did not show much hostility. Dark magic does exist in the game, so there is no need to judge others based on the type of magic they use.

Regardless of the nature of magic, the manipulators are all human. Power itself is neither good nor evil; only humans can distinguish between them.

"A guest is a guest?" A hoarse voice came from beneath the cloak, and the slightly lowered brim of the hood made it impossible to see any expression on the face.

"Of course, guests are always welcome."

"No need, I just came to deliver a message."

"Oh? Then I'm all ears." Lin Xueyin calmly looked at the man in front of her, stopping Ailiya from stepping forward.

"Woman, there are some things you'd better not touch, and some things you'd better not meddle in." As soon as he finished speaking, the man prepared to turn and leave. However, while you were leaving, someone else was not going to let you go.

"Is it me helping people heal, or your Lone Wolf Cave?"

The cloaked man, who had been stopped at the door by Aria, paused upon hearing this, then let out a laugh like that of an owl. "You're so smart, don't you know?"

"Here's a final piece of advice: sometimes, smart people die very quickly."

"Then thank you for your advice, but you should ask her if she's willing before you leave." Lin Xueyin, who also let out a cold laugh, turned her head and heard Ailiya exclaim in surprise.

The moment she pulled down her cloak, the man turned into a pile of bone dust, scattered on the ground, with a faint flash of holy light passing over it.

A cold smile appeared on Lin Xueyin's lips. "Ailiya, step back a little. They're planning to give me a hard time."

"What's wrong, Yukine?"

"This bone meal is highly contagious. Although not strongly so, it can weaken a person's body in the next few days. I'd better get rid of these sources of infection first."

As he spoke, the entire house was instantly filled with holy light, and a very comfortable feeling was also felt outside, relieving and even dispelling all the discomfort in the body.

Meanwhile, not far from the entrance of Lin Xueyin's shop, a man hiding in a corner looked at the holy light in the room, sneered, glanced at his right hand which was slightly agitated by the holy light, let out a cold laugh, and gradually disappeared into the alley.

Volume 1: The Transmigrated Nanny - Chapter 15: The Undead Attack

Yorktown gradually lost its daytime hustle and bustle in the darkness. Although some drunken mercenaries were still staggering in the streets, silence had silently descended upon the land.

After a busy day, Lin Xueyin made another plate of boiled fish to reward herself for her hard work. Of course, Ailiya also sat down at the table.

Smelling the delicious boiled fish, Aria swallowed hard, her eyes fixed on the girl who was helping her remove the bones. So this is how you can eat fish from the streams in the mountains.

I always thought that roasting it over a fire would be enough, but under Lin Xueyin's skillful hands, it took on a different flavor.

"Come on, have a good taste of my cooking. You're going out again tomorrow, so eat more today."

Lin Xueyin pushed the plate piled high with deboned fish meat in front of Ailiya, watching her hiss as she took a bite and then stuff it into her mouth with gusto, a feeling of revenge lingered in her heart.

Hmph, I'm going to make it spicy for you, so you can't stop eating it. You even pinched my face just now. Next time you come, I'll make you a spicy hot pot, I guarantee you'll eat until you're in heaven.

Unaware that the other party had already mentally written down everything she had done, Aria smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Xueyin, why don't you make more food that can be stored for a long time? I want to go out tomorrow, hehehehe."

The girl chuckled dryly, rubbing her hands together. Her few "hehe" sounds sent a chill down Lin Xueyin's spine. Looking at the girl's fawning, embarrassed smile, she could only sigh helplessly.

"Okay, I'll make you something easy to carry today, so you can take it with you tomorrow, is that alright?"

"That's great, Yukine, you're the best! Now I can bring more delicious food tomorrow! Oh, and make a lot more for the others..."

"Stop, stop! Do you really think this is a restaurant? You can eat and take things as you please, but you're already being lenient by cooking for yourself. Giving it to others is ridiculous. I'm not a maid."

This time, it wasn't just rolling her eyes; even that felt too mild. "Hmph, I've never seen anyone as shameless as you."

"Haha, then make more, I'll share. If we find any clues, we'll come here for a big meal, is that alright?"

"Sure, sure my ass!" Lin Xueyin kept shouting in her heart. She didn't have the time for that. She was busy all day and then had to prepare a banquet for them at night. Don't be ridiculous.

"How about this, then we won't have to take you to eat boiled lizard?"

Boiled lizard! Lin Xueyin seemed to have heard something terrible. Her eyes widened in horror as she stared at the girl in front of her. How could such a thing be placed on the dining table?

"Come back early tomorrow, and I'll close the shop early too. I'll cook you a big meal, a real feast, so you can eat your fill, how about that?"

Hmph, do you really think we can't put on a feast? My great China, the land of foodies, has plenty of simple and abundant ways to prepare a small banquet.

However, this seemingly perfect beginning was a little unexpected when a loud door-breaking sound startled the two of them to their feet.

Suddenly, a sound of a window shattering came from the second floor, the crisp sound startling Lin Xueyin and the other person.

"Xueyin, hurry and get out through the back door, they..."

"The back door? I'm afraid they're already waiting for me to walk right into their trap." He shook his head with a wry smile. The other side was definitely prepared. There was absolutely no way he could escape. However, he didn't have any reason to run away.

With a single punch, Lin Xueyin slammed a dark figure that had suddenly barged in against the wall. To Ailiya's horror, Lin Xueyin kicked out and wedged the cloaked body hanging on the wall into the wall.

"Hmph, you dare to come here and cause trouble for the priest? Do you think the priest is so easily bullied?"

The sound of carnage echoed from the wall, and the moment the hood of the cloak fell down, a skull with scarlet eyes was revealed to Lin Xueyin and the others.

"Whoa..." Aria glanced at Lin Xueyin, who had let out a shrill scream, and was about to pull her to her side when she saw a mysterious light gleaming in Lin Xueyin's eyes.

"Wow, this is even scarier than a horror movie. But skeletons? Ghosts? Heh."

With a mocking laugh, Lin Xueyin clasped her hands together in front of her chest as if in prayer, her eyes closed, and began to utter obscure and difficult-to-understand words. As these words appeared, the surroundings seemed to be placed in a sacred position.

Arya also felt a loving power constantly restoring her strength, but for the dark undead, this sacred power became a deadly poison.

The sound of bones cracking echoed from outside, finally bringing Aria a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Yukine was a priest and had a natural resistance to such undead.

"Hmph, a mere undead dares to linger in front of me, a holy priest? He's just asking for trouble." Lin Xueyin crossed her arms, a smug look on her face, and glanced sideways at Ailiya, who seemed lost in thought.

"Aria, what's wrong? You seem to have something on your mind."

"Yukine, don't you find it strange that there are so many undead skeletons in the town?"

Speaking of this, Lin Xueyin finally snapped out of her smugness and looked at the dozens of skeletons around her, feeling a little uneasy.

"Aria, um, can I stay at your place for the night? It's a bit creepy here."

"Pfft... So you can be scared after all." Looking at the trembling girl, Aria suddenly felt that she wasn't so unapproachable after all; at least she could be scared and timid like an ordinary girl.

"Let's go, stay at my place tonight. I don't believe they'll dare to cause trouble at the military camp." Taking Lin Xueyin's hand, Ailiya walked outside.

As Lin Xueyin was held tightly by the other person, feeling the calluses on her hands from years of sword practice, the temperature on her face continued to rise.

The night was still long, and dawn was still far away. The two girls walked along the street lit by dim streetlights, heading towards the distant military camp. However, they did not notice that not far behind them, a crow was watching them intently until they arrived at the military camp before taking flight.

In the distant forest, a man huddled in a cloak revealed a cold smile on his face hidden by the hood. Dozens of warriors in Imperial Guard uniforms surrounded him, their longswords gleaming with a cold light.

Volume 1: The Transmigrated Nanny - Chapter 16: The Enemy Who Shouldn't Have Appeared

The night passed quickly in sleep, and time slipped away. When the sun rose again, its light finally dispelled the darkness that had lingered over the earth, scattering light upon the world.

Lin Xueyin stood at the gate of the military camp, watching Ailiya prepare to leave. She gently handed her some ghee cakes that she had made overnight in the camp. After watching Ailiya express her gratitude, she left without looking back. Suddenly, Lin Xueyin felt uneasy.

I walked back to my little shop step by step. That two-story building must still be filled with broken bones. I just don't know when I'll be able to clean it all up.

The mercenaries and townspeople who should have been queuing in front of the door nervously went inside the house. Looking at the skeletons scattered around, they were all worried about Lin Xueyin's safety.

Just then, they saw her arriving late from a distance, and everyone rushed to her side with concern, asking her all sorts of questions about her condition.

"Xueyin, are you alright? What happened at home?" This was a kind inquiry from an elderly woman who was slightly ill.

"Pastor Lin, has someone come here to cause trouble? Tell us. Although our Corey Mercenary Group isn't a big mercenary group, we're not to be trifled with. Anyone who dares to cause trouble here is making trouble for us."

"That's right, anyone who dares to bully Pastor Lin is going against us mercenaries, let's beat them up."

Seeing the crowd already somewhat agitated, Lin Xueyin suddenly felt that her previous efforts had not been in vain. Although she hadn't gained much gold or money, these people genuinely cared about her.
