Witch, don't be so lazy

Although she knew that if nothing unexpected happened, she might indeed benefit from her good eye for talent, give preferential treatment and care, share a lot of information, and invest in "A Brief Discussion on Ancient Spell Runes", and the girl did not seem to be an ungrateful person, so her efforts would not be in vain.

But the payback will take at least another ten or eight years, not just half a year?!

Sure enough, fate is still so magical.

Luya reviewed her own thoughts and looked at the girl in front of her. She couldn't help but stretch out her arms.

"Come here, little cutie, give your sister a hug~"

The moment the words fell, Miss Anke felt a familiar and terrifying pressure as her vision went dark.

The little face was crushed cruelly and mercilessly, and even breathing was a little difficult.

What a pity... uh, fortunately it didn't last long, and the light reappeared in Anke's eyes.

"Regarding your business in Asda City's commercial street, Manager Chesqi of the Winter Magic Chamber of Commerce told me that they will remit the profits and reports to you every quarter. Don't worry, although you may not care about these small amounts of money, I will help you supervise and manage it."

Luya smiled, then felt a little melancholy. "It's just that this time is different. You're going to a very far place, and you'll be staying there for a longer time. We might not be able to see each other for many years."

"But, I think, with our little cutie's talent, it might not be long before we see news about you in the newspapers and on the news again, right?"

She reached out and gently pinched Anke's little face.

"...How did Zhewo know?"

The latter replied incoherently.

She would go to Pandgar and practice at the Tower Academy, and would indeed stay there for many years, but she had always been a good child who was law-abiding and not a troublemaker, so how could she be in the news so easily?

Even after the old man reminded her that her college life might not be as peaceful as she imagined, and that High Tower College was only a college, but it could actually be used as a military camp, nothing could change Anke's mentality.

No matter what she faces, it will not affect her determination to calm down, work hard to improve her skills, and become stronger. This is the most important thing.

Of course, making money is also important.

An Ke felt relieved to leave the industries of Asda City to Luya. At least there would be two to three thousand gold coins a year, so he still had to have more people keep an eye on it.

For a normal second-level wizard in the North, the cash available on hand is usually around 10,000 gold coins. For example, after Yin Ya took out 7,200 gold coins to investigate the apostles of Asda City, all his liquidity was almost drained.

Mammon the Imp is very particular about money.

After all, if she were to go to a big place like the capital Pandegar, the level of consumption would definitely rise. Even though she still had five or six thousand gold coins in her wallet and mastered money-making skills like runes, she had an inexplicable premonition that she might not be very rich for a while, and she didn't know what the money would be spent on.

"Oh, by the way, I have two little things to tell you."

Luya suddenly remembered something. "One is that Dis's business has grown bigger and stronger. Well, that's the bard from Xueshan Town. Because you've become famous, the short story he created, 'The Case of the Wilderness Murderer,' was noticed by the Arstar City Publishing House. They want to make it into a supplement to 'The Evil Dragon's Horror,' but he can't be contacted, so he begged me to tell you about it. It's still a 30/70 split, with you taking 70%. Even though the profit might not be much, just a few hundred gold coins?"

······Now there are two new best-selling books published in the southern part of the North, namely "Fateful Battle" and "Evil Dragon Terror". The former takes Sutur as the protagonist and mainly describes his battle with the Southern Monster Alliance. The latter takes Anke as the protagonist and describes how she saved the city of Asda.

Of course, the contents of the two books are very different from the facts and are propaganda versions.

"Sure, just go ahead."

An Ke had no objection to this. After all, even if she disagreed, as long as there was popularity, there would still be people who would actively or passively spread it, or even secretly tinker with her unofficial history. It would be better for her to make the money herself.

"What's the other thing?"

She tilted her head.

"······Do you still remember your mother?"

As soon as the eldest sister spoke, An Ke raised an eyebrow.

"What happened? Did you find her? I tried to find out about her before, but I never found anything."

When An Ke asked further, she narrowed her eyes subconsciously.

She did not forget that although the original owner's father committed suicide, the original owner's mother just cheated on her husband and ran away with someone else, and seemed to have left Xueshan Town.

In fact, she had also tried to gather information about the other party indirectly through channels such as the Adventurer's Guild and the Mammon Society.

As for the purpose, she could only say that she intended to use some means to avoid unnecessary trouble, but it never worked. She even thought that the other party had died in the wild.

"In fact, we have been searching relentlessly, and finally learned from a member of the Huangtu Gang in the mine that she had...sadly passed away."

Luya carefully looked at Anke's expression and said in a measured tone,

"It was the work of the Desolate Clan. Just like the abducted noble girls in Xueshan Town, they acted very cautiously. To ensure they could fulfill the evil ritual, they created orphans that met the requirements with absolute certainty. They committed many cruel acts in secret."

"As for the mastermind behind the attack, according to his confession, he seems to have died in the explosion you caused. Well, regardless of whether what he said is true or not, most of the former members of the Huangtu Gang are dead. Aside from those who died in the crackdown, those who were captured are almost all dead too, either in prison, publicly executed, or collapsed in the mine..."

The prison environment in Xueshan Town is relatively poor. If the management is not in place, if the guards deliberately target someone, or if the interrogation methods are rough, people may be killed. As for the mines, it is even worse, especially for those criminals who undertake the most dangerous work, whose average survival period is only three months.

Luya observed Anke's reaction and found that the latter did not show any obvious sadness or dissatisfaction, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although she looked down on parents who abandoned their children, if An Ke had a deep relationship with the other party, things would become difficult.

Whether it is insisting on taking revenge with one's own hands or searching for the remains, it has taken too long and is extremely difficult.

fortunately.

"...It seems they've been targeting me sooner than expected. The Huangtu Gang really deserves to be destroyed by me."

An Ke sighed. Although she was obviously happy inside, she still pretended to be sad and sighing on her face.

"However, I no longer have any feelings for that person. I just want to find her and enjoy her regretful expression."

Lu Ya looked at the girl's face carefully and said cautiously:

"According to the information we've gathered, your father doesn't have many relatives, but your mother is in Red Needle Town. She might have some distant relatives. Do you want to look for them?"

After hearing these words, An Ke was so scared that she quickly waved her hands.

"No need. They're complete strangers. Forget about actively looking for them. If anyone dares to cheat me by claiming to be related to me, I'll just arrest them and throw them in jail."

"Row."

Luya nodded, "I'll notify the city guards."

After explaining everything, the elder sister was obviously relieved and began to ask curiously:

"When are you leaving, little cutie? You applied to High Tower Academy, right? I wonder when the results will be out? I remember I waited a full thirty-four days. I heard that top schools like Crucible Academy only give news in seven or eight days."

The Northern Magic Qualification Examination did not require unified grading because it was almost completed on the same day. All it needed to do was upload and summarize the information to the central cities of the jurisdiction, namely the four super cities, and have it reviewed and confirmed by professional wizards before selection and allocation could begin.

Because the powerful academies are selected first, the Crucible Academy in Black Rock City can give a reply within a week, but the Asda City Magic Academy has to wait until all the above screenings are completed before getting the results, so it will take about a month.

"Well, the results from High Tower Academy will be out in two days. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be leaving with Sister Momo tomorrow."

Anko replied.

After all, the information of the remaining candidates is reported step by step according to the hierarchy, from third-tier small cities, second-tier large cities, to four first-tier super cities, and then slowly summarized and transmitted to the tower through ultra-long-distance communication.

But it's different at the Tower Academy. Reports are made directly by the admissions officer. Momo has a small sign that can transmit news to Pandgar at any time as long as she is in the inland of the Northern Territory. It is a very precious alchemy tool and must be returned after leaving office. It is said that if it is damaged, it seems that a compensation of 600,000 gold coins will be required, and if it is lost, the person will be held responsible.

The Lord of Kunda City also has something similar, which is unique to the City Lord, but it can only contact the Black Rock City at most. Of course, he should have other ways to communicate with the Winter Bone City.

Getting back to the point, Tower College is also very fast in terms of admissions.

The reason why it takes two more days is because some teachers in the college need to be called together for discussion, and then the report needs to be submitted to the Tower Council for approval, and some supporting ceremonies need to be completed at the same time. Even if it is done quickly, some necessary procedures still need to be followed.

"You're in such a hurry! Luckily I came here early, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the little cutie off."

Luya said thankfully.

An Ke also smiled sweetly.

It's interesting to talk about.

Similar to leaving Xueshan Town, the old man was the first to run away, and then he set off with the company of his elder sister, heading to a farther place and onto a higher stage.

Of course, there are some differences.

For example, the last time he set out with a caravan, all the people accompanying him were strangers, but this time he followed Sister Momo.

The last time I went to Asda City, I didn’t know much about this city, let alone the people there.

But this time, she had heard of the great name of Pandegar, the capital of the northern border, for a long time.

There are many creatures that I know there, including the teacher "Almighty Man" whom I have not met formally, the legends, the socially anxious Sinefe, the spirit of nature Gaga, and of course, the cute lamb.

Maybe this is what growth is. As time goes by, your strength increases, you come into contact with more people, form more bonds, and become entangled in more grudges. The difficulties you encounter may also become more difficult.

There is nothing to be afraid of. Always carry that little flame in your heart and walk steadily. Even if it is slow, you will eventually move towards your goal.

Set sail and head towards a new chapter!

······

Pendergar, the house of Barrowmont.

With a loud bang.

The magnificent gate was severely damaged, and a blonde girl rushed in aggressively, her hands on her hips, her emerald eyes wide open:

"Saoirse, the super fat dragon!"

"Get out here right now, Lady Lorena!"

While shouting loudly, Lorena looked around with extreme vigilance, guarding against possible attacks. The bad woman did not control her strength when she kicked her in the butt last time, and she didn't even know how to hold back, which hurt her for a long time.

only.

After waiting for a long time, she was not attacked and no one responded to her.

"what?"

Lorena blinked her eyes, and with a thought, she turned into a light golden lamb.

next moment.

She appeared in the nearest treasure house, observed it carefully, adjusted her route, and easily bypassed the guards and traps.

As a habitual offender, no, it should be said that as a distinguished guest of the restaurant, she was very tactful and did not cause trouble to the waiter.

After entering, I started eating a lot.

In just a blink of an eye, several expensive treasures turned into streams of light and were swallowed into Yang Mee's stomach.

While she was eating, she looked around. It was obviously a beautiful lamb, but it looked shifty.

however.

For a long time, she was not brutally raped.

"Something's wrong. He's clearly still alive in my perception. Could this be some evil trap deliberately devised by some fat dragon?"

Lorena muttered to herself.

She didn't dare eat anymore.

Because she hasn't done anything recently and has been practicing diligently, if she exceeds the prescribed amount, she will owe the bad woman money again.

Although there is a saying in the North that "the more you owe, the more lord you are", this saying does not apply to practitioners of golden magic and those who follow the Way of Mammon. The more others owe them, the more they will be controlled.

The lamb still has dreams, and she will regain her freedom sooner or later.

Don’t be fooled by the bad woman’s claim that she owes her “36 trillion”, this number is completely a scare tactic by the fat dragon.

In fact, Lorena only owed her money for "cleansing her realm", "getting rid of Mammon's control" and "re-cultivation"... Well, although that was also a scary number, it was definitely not as much as Saoirse said.

Therefore, as long as you learn to be moderate and know how to increase income and reduce expenditure, as your strength improves, you will be able to pay off your debts and break free from the shackles!

Even though I have failed many times, I will definitely succeed this time!

Lorena was firm in her belief. She looked at the jewel-encrusted shield in front of her with a very determined look. She raised her hoof and pawed it fiercely to express her attitude of resisting temptation!

"Hey! Today I'll show you Lady Lorena's determination!"

With a powerful kick, a noticeable dent was left on the shield, and several gems were successfully broken off.

Everything went very smoothly.

The only flaw was that when Lorena's eyes followed the curve of the gem, she unfortunately saw a familiar tall figure and saw that beautiful face was full of violence and impatience.

"..."

The smug expression on Lorena's face froze for a moment, then she suddenly had an idea and decisively launched an accusation, "Okay, you big fat dragon, you really are scheming to frame me, despicable and shameless—"

The words have not yet fallen.

I only felt a gust of evil wind behind me, followed by a huge force, and then the wall was quickly pulled in.

Powerful, volley shot.

Lamb football, perfect shot!

"Lorena, what are you crazy about?"
