Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

——(The person who made these little foxes must be a kind person.)

·

Emilia successfully asked the landlady for Banning's room and then knocked on Banning's door.

"Mr. Banning, I'm Emilia, and I'm here to give you a book."

"Come in, the door is unlocked."

Before Emilia entered the room, she hadn't thought about what she might see that she shouldn't.

What else can a girl see when she enters a boy's room?

But as soon as she entered the room, Emilia turned her back in shame.

"Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"

"It's just that I'm not wearing a shirt, why make such a fuss?"

Banning's indifferent response contrasted sharply with Emilia's shyness.

After hearing what Banning said, Emilia also thought to herself, yes, it's just shirtless, there are a lot of shirtless bounty hunters in the guild, why should she be shy now?

So Emilia turned back.

Then she saw Banning's naked muscles glistening in the morning sunlight.

Obviously, Benning looks quite thin when he is wearing clothes, but after taking off his clothes, his muscles are quite impressive.

Not only did he have strong arms and a thick chest, but the lines of his abdominal muscles caught Emilia's attention. She couldn't help but continue to look down along those lines...

"Hey, where are you looking?"

Banning suddenly raised his hand to block Emilia's view, startling her.

"I, I didn't watch it."

Emilia stuffed the potion book to Banning guiltily, her head still a little dizzy.

I don’t know why…this guy Banning’s body is so fascinating to look at.

"The recipe and preparation method for the primary antidote..."

Banning read out the name of the potion book, then sat aside and began to flip through it.

Emilia didn't know what to do for a moment, but she didn't dare look at Banning again, so she walked around the room.

As she turned around, Emilia's eyes stopped on the table, because she saw a half-made golden little fox on the table.

——(How could this be…?)

Emilia was a little bit unbelievable. She quickly walked to the window and looked at the outer wall. Then she saw those cute little golden foxes were all pasted on the outer wall of the room.

Could it be that all these golden little foxes were made by Banning?

4.29 - An Old and Bad Fate (Update)

Emilia hesitated. She wanted to ask Banning what was going on with these little golden foxes, but she had a vague feeling that "I would lose if I asked."

"Emilia, does that mean anyone can make potions by following the recipes and preparation methods in this book?"

"Well, that's the theory, but in practice, the effects of the potions produced vary depending on each person's comprehension and operational level. In the worst case, the potion may even fail."

Banning's question temporarily brought Emilia back to the matter of the potion.

Emilia had a strange feeling. Benning was obviously an annoying guy, but when he discussed things seriously with her, he had a mysterious attraction.

Looking at Banning's seriousness, Emilia seemed to be back to the time when she first started learning magic.

It's like immersing your whole body and mind in the ocean of knowledge.

"Why do the recipes in the book only list the names of the herbs, but not the specific weight ratios?"

"I'm not quite sure about this. I heard that it's because the quality of the herbs obtained by pharmacists is different. For the same medicine, if the herbs are of good quality, only a small amount is needed, while if the quality is poor, more is needed..."

Before she knew it, Emilia also became serious and focused on communicating with Banning about potion-related knowledge.

Although Emilia majored in magic, she also had some knowledge of potions.

When she didn't have money to buy magic books but still wanted to learn, she would buy cheap potion books to read.

Emilia told Banning that most potions only have the effect of alleviating or stopping negative physical conditions, such as poisoning, dizziness, drowsiness, etc. If you are injured and want to speed up your recovery, you can only go to the church to seek treatment from the clergy.

The prayers of the clergy are very powerful, but they can only perform the spells in the church. Once they leave the church, they will not be able to use their divine power.

"I don't see any church in Sunny Town?" Banning asked.

"Well, churches are only found in big cities. The closest city to Sunny Town should be Cuilin City."

After talking so much, Emilia had a changed opinion of Banning.

At this time, she remembered the half-made golden little fox on the table, so she asked.

"Mr. Banning, the little fox on the table and the little fox on the outside wall... did you make them all?"

"Yeah, that's right," Banning answered readily.

Emilia was confused. She couldn't think of any reason why Banning would do this.

"Eh? Why are you...?"

"You've been expressionless all day, so I'll try to see if these little foxes can cheer you up a little."

"I... have no expression...?"

Emilia was stunned for a moment, and her emotions were a little complicated for a moment.

Emilia knew that Banning probably had no ill intentions, and rather had good intentions. However, there was a reason why Emilia was emotionally weak, and it was a past that she did not want to mention.

"Thank you so much for troubling me. You don't have to do such meaningless things in the future."

Before she knew it, Emilia had said something hurtful.

"Hmm? Are you angry? I didn't mean to offend."

"No, I'm not angry."

Emilia felt that Banning was just making fun of her, and she didn't want to stay here for a moment.

"Mr. Banning, I have complied with your request. I will be leaving today."

Emilia left the room angrily. When she walked out, Banning only said, "Remember to bring the book tomorrow morning," without any other words to keep her, which made Emilia leave more determined.

·

It was not until she entered the mission guild and sat in her seat that Emilia's emotions calmed down a little.

She felt she was overreacting.

Benning doesn't know about her past, he probably just means well... Emilia thought so.

—(Also, if Benning hadn't been paying close attention to me, how would he have known that I often had a blank expression...?)

Emilia went to the window and looked at the hotel. Perhaps the hotel and the room were carefully selected by Banning.

——(You went through so much trouble, just to make me happy...? Why?)

Emilia couldn't figure it out, and she didn't want to think about it anymore. Being so worried was not her style.

While it was still early, Emilia took out her current favorite: the "Third-Level Fire Magic Book", and began to read it very attentively.

·

Meanwhile, on the second floor of the Mission Union, branch chief Oleg was worried.

Oleg hasn't felt at ease ever since Banning told him that Nassar might be a problem.

Oleg is 73 years old this year and has long reached the age to enjoy his retirement, but he has been struggling to find suitable talent to take over, so he has been still in the position of branch chief.

In recent years, Nasar's growth has been obvious to all. He is not only a popular candidate for the next branch chief, but also the successor that Oleg has already designated in his mind.

But now, Oleg must first find out whether Nassar is innocent.

(If Nassar is indeed connected to Spland as Benning claims... then this can't be solved by simply admitting guilt...)

Oleg sighed heavily. The bad karma of the past was like a rope tied around his neck, and with each passing year, the rope became tighter.

If he doesn't find a way to cut off the evil fate, he will be strangled to death sooner or later.

(That old bastard Spland... after all these years... is he still obsessed with 'Flame Horse'...?)

The "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse" was a powerful piece of equipment that Oleg accidentally obtained when he was young and teamed up with Spland and others to become a bounty hunter.

This magical secret sword was forged by the demons and can cut through iron like mud, but its most powerful feature is that the sword contains a unique magical skill "Flame Horse", which is as powerful as third-level magic and allows people who are not magicians to use magic.

However, equipment forged by the demons usually carries a curse, and the "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse" is no exception.

Without exception, all those who have used the "Magic Secret Sword: Flame Horse" were burned to death by the backlash of the sword's flames after using it for a period of time.

In the end, three people from Oleg and Spland's team died from this magic sword.

In order to prevent the magic sword from harming people again, Oleg hid it.

Over the past few decades, Oleg has tried to destroy the magic sword several times, but he couldn't bring himself to do it when he thought that the magic sword carried the memories of their youth.

During these years, Spland came to Oleg many times, each time wanting to ask Oleg for the sword, but was rejected by Oleg.

To this day, decades have passed, and Oleg never thought that Spland would use the method of planting a traitor to steal the "Flame Horse". He was simply crazy.

“Ah…ah…ah…ah…”

Oleg walked back and forth in the room hundreds of times in worry. Finally, he figured out that the only way to solve the worry was to face it head-on.

However, he is old now and his brain is not working well, so he needs to find someone to discuss countermeasures.

Oleg went to the window and looked at the hotel opposite.

——"Okay, then if you need anything, come find me at the hotel across from the Quest Guild."

Oleg remembered what Banning had said and decided to go over and talk to him.

This decision later became Oleg's lifelong regret.

4.30 - New Trickster Items

[Prison Star Calendar]

October 187, 6

10:26 AM

[Confession death countdown remaining: 3 days]

━━━━━━━━━━

On the outskirts of Sunny Town, in the woods, Grandma Cassie from the caravan was talking to a "snake".

Grandma Cathy knew that this snake was just one of the countless snakes controlled by the "Earth Ghost".

Through this ability, the "Earth Ghost" has planted countless spies in the countries of the Alliance of Light, including Grandma Cassie.

"Is there something special about this boy named Banning? Why are you specifically monitoring him?"

After finishing her daily report, Grandma Cathy asked the Earth Ghost with some curiosity.

"Hiss...don't ask unnecessary questions. Just do your job well."

The underground ghost was very tight-lipped, and Grandma Cathy couldn't get anything out of him.

So, Grandma Cathy settled for another question.

"Okay, then who's the other guy who's acting as a watchdog in Sunnytown? Let me know so we can work together seamlessly."

This time, the snake gave Grandma Cassie a look of disdain.

"If it were you, hiss... would you want others to know your identity as a monitor?"

Grandma Cathy was speechless when asked.
