And it is really inappropriate to continue wasting Mr. Murphy's time on such trivial matters.
So she took the money, put it in her gray robe, and never asked Murphy to take the money again.
Murphy just stood there watching without saying anything.
"I haven't said whether I agree or not."
However, although he thought so in his heart, he did not say it out loud, otherwise he would have to waste half a day.
By the time Candice had collected the money and was almost ready.
Old Jed turned around and said to Murphy.
"Nothing else? Then get lost."
"Master, I'll be leaving first then?"
"and many more!"
After Murphy finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Old Jed suddenly called him again.
He stopped turning around with some doubt.
"what happened?"
"Hmph, don't do anything stupid next time. Remember to listen to me."
"Don't worry, I've suffered a loss once, and I won't dare to do it again next time."
"If you really need money, come to me and I'll find you a job."
"Hehe, thank you for your care, Master."
Murphy scratched his head with an embarrassed smile on his face.
"Then I'm leaving, Master."
"Go away, go away."
Seeing Old Jed waved at him and then turned around and stopped looking at him, Murphy also waved at his back.
Then, he turned and left the slum, with Candice still following behind him.
His next plan was to go home and have a good sleep to relax his tense nerves.
Then, wait until tomorrow morning and go to the dwarf blacksmith to repair the weapon.
Then I’ll think about the future and see how I can do something “extraordinary”.
Murphy thought about it again and felt that he would probably have to come into contact with that group of geniuses in the future.
After all, they will be the strongest fighting force on the human side in this world in the future.
And Candice, as to whether she would continue to follow him...
It’s up to her. I won’t let her into my house anyway.
Chapter 57 Candice's Determination
Murphy stood at the door of her house, then slowly turned around and said to Candice in front of her.
"I am home."
"......Um."
After Murphy took Candice out of the slums, they soon returned to their home.
After all, his home and the slum where Old Jed lived were both located in Dongcheng District, quite close to each other.
Seeing Candice nodded, Murphy began to think about how to get her out of here.
However, before he could think of what to say, Candice spoke first.
"Mr. Murphy, I'll go back first."
"Uh, huh? Uh... Oh oh, okay."
Murphy almost didn't react, because he never expected the other party to take the initiative to leave.
He thought Candice would continue to wrestle with herself for a while.
After all, judging from her previous performance, she probably has a good impression of me.
result......
"It's completely my own fault."
"One of the three great illusions in life, I didn't expect it to apply here too."
Murphy suddenly felt a little embarrassed after realizing that she had misunderstood Candice all along.
But before he had time to think about it, he heard Candice's voice again.
She was saying goodbye to herself.
"Goodbye, Mr. Murphy."
"Well, bye, Miss Candice."
This time, Murphy responded quickly.
He nodded at Candice, indicating that he understood.
Then, Candice turned around and left without hesitation.
'...'
Murphy stood silently at the door, watching Candice leave.
It wasn't until she disappeared around the corner that Murphy came back to his senses.
"Murphy, I've noticed that you seem to be getting a little carried away lately."
'Oh, this won't do.'
He sighed and stood at the door for a while.
Then he scratched his head, opened the door and walked in.
After returning home, the first thing he did was to put the big bag containing the dragon horns and the backpack given by Enoch on the ground.
Then he took off his armor and coat, closed his eyes, and pounced directly onto the bed.
After completing this series of actions, Murphy seemed to be muttering something softly.
"Forget it, why think so much?"
"With all this mess going on, how can I sleep comfortably?"
After saying this, Murphy quickly fell asleep.
After all, he was really tired.
-------------------------------------
"Is this really okay, Candice?"
Looking at Mr. Murphy walking in front of me, I couldn't help but think so.
Now I have followed him to an unfamiliar place, and the houses on both sides of the road look a bit... old.
"Mr. Murphy's home should be nearby. It seems his financial situation is not very good."
I was guessing on my own, and then I remembered what had just happened.
That was the incident just now when we were at Mr. Gerald's place, when Mr. Murphy was trying to refuse the bag of gold coins and tried to put it off with me for a long time.
I think Mr. Murphy is the one who should get the reward.
Because even if he was not commissioned by the old man in red from the church, he still did the most things.
Therefore, only he is qualified to take the money.
But Mr. Murphy himself doesn't seem to think so.
Perhaps because he didn't like money, he refused the commission and was unwilling to take even half of it.
I couldn't continue to persuade him and could only stand there and be angry at myself for being useless.
Because before I met Mr. Murphy, I had nothing to do with him.
If we only consider the money and not the favor, I did use a few tubes of high-level potions for him.
And the prices of those potions are indeed a bit high.
So, I couldn't refute what he said to me at all.
Fortunately, Mr. Gerard gave me a way out and helped me out of the predicament.
But it wasn't until now, after walking with Mr. Murphy for a while, that I slowly figured it out.
Maybe he doesn't dislike money, he just doesn't like money that doesn't belong to him.
He stubbornly believed that since he did not accept the commission, he was not the owner of the reward.
I raised my head and glanced at Mr. Murphy's back.
"Such a noble character, worthy of Mr. Murphy."
My face started to feel hot unconsciously, but fortunately, Mr. Murphy didn't turn around to look at me.
Otherwise, he would have noticed my funny blushing face.
Of course, he might have noticed my abnormality a long time ago, but he just didn't look back on purpose in order not to embarrass me.
"What a gentle person."
I couldn't help but praise Mr. Murphy in my heart.
I know I'm not normal right now.
Because he saved me in a critical moment, there is always a beautifying filter in the look I give him.
But, so what?
I found my own hero and fell head over heels for him.
For me, this is the happiest thing.
So, back to the original question.
"Is this really okay, Candice?"
"Is it really okay to just stay by his side and do nothing like this?"
I began to think about this problem unconsciously.
Although it would be nice to continue following Mr. Murphy like this.
But if that were all, he and I would never have a deeper bond.
So, I need to take the initiative and do something for myself.
However, this is where the problem lies.
The me in the past who only knew how to study magic and had no social interaction could never do such a thing.
Not to mention taking the initiative, before entering the maze and meeting Mr. Murphy.
I couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
However, there is a solution.
Although I don’t understand these things, she - my best friend Filia - definitely understands them.
She is the daughter of a noble family.
Even though Reinhard became a noble through force, he is still a noble.
And young ladies from aristocratic families always receive education in these areas.
So, Filia must know what I should do... maybe.
Suddenly I thought of Filia's carefree appearance, which had no aristocratic temperament at all.
I began to doubt unconsciously in my heart.
"Can she really..."
