Chapter 34: Candy
It seems that Shi Leiyin's luck is not too good, and as he follows the route he chose, the road becomes narrower and narrower, and the road that could have passed through two carriages can now only barely be used for one-way carriages.
The surrounding woods also became denser, and under the shade of tall trees, the sunlight became less and less, and the whole forest began to become gloomy.
"You've chosen a good path!" Erika poked Shrayin in dissatisfaction. Jessica didn't say anything, but there was a hint of displeasure on her face.
"There's a room there!" Wendy's voice came out in time, and the little girl was a little scared at first, but she was somewhat relieved to see that such a place was also inhabited.
Of the four "really yes" Erica has the best eyesight, and she can see the room Wendy said at a glance. "It's not far from the road, why don't we go and see it"
"Alika, you and Wren should take a look first. We then went to "Jessica handed Erica her weapon and shield" and brought it with us, and hurried back in case of danger. ”
"It's alright, let's go, little Wren," Erica said with a smile, but she still hung her shield in her hand, and her one-handed sword was stuck in her waist, and she jumped out of the car.
"Alright, Wendy, let's pull over to the side of the road in front and have a look," Jessica leaned over to Wendy's side and pointed not far away, where a part of the woods was missing, revealing an open space where three or four carriages could be parked.
When Jessica and Wendy and Shrayin came to the side of the house, Wren was the only one standing next to the house
"Where's Erica?" Jessica looked around, but couldn't find Erica.
"We knocked on the door and no one answered, so Sister Erica ......," Wren pointed to the inside of the room.
"Yikes!" Before Jessica could attack, Erica's screams could be heard from inside the room.
"Erica!" Jessica didn't care about the problem of trespassing, slammed open the door of the house and ran in the direction where the sound came from, followed by Wendy, Wren glanced at Shi Leiyin, gritted his teeth and followed. Shi Leiyin already knew about Erica's situation from the contract induction, and scolded in a low voice, "You girl"
Unhurriedly, he walked inside.
When Shi Leiyin arrived, he saw the picture he expected. Erica held her chin in her hands and was munching on something with a happy expression.
Jessica, Wendy, and Wren watched as if they had been caught in petrified magic.
"This candy ball is so delicious, touched" Erica tears of happiness "Jessica, you can taste one too"
Shrayin noticed a small plate of colorful beads on the wooden table in front of Erica, presumably the candy balls she was talking about.
"Ai, Li, Ka!" Jessica finally came to her senses, and pinched Erica's cheek as soon as she reached out, "Do you know that you almost scared me to death, trespassing into someone's house, I thought you were in some danger, you actually stole and ate other people's candy balls, your dignified Francois eldest lady, actually stole the candy balls of a forest dweller, and your grandfather's face was going to be thrown into you."
Also, do you know how worried I am about you, damn it, you still look like you're going to die with happiness. You give me a little bit, woo......"
Jessica, who was having a seizure, was stuffed into her mouth by a candy ball from Erica, and the sweet delicacy suddenly melted in her mouth, "It's delicious!" Erika directly forgot what she planned to teach Erica a lesson, and held her face with both hands like Erica, immersed in this deliciousness.
"So happy" The two girls completely forgot their current situation.
Chapter 35: The Witch
"Oh, oops, I actually ran into someone's house without permission and ate other people's things without authorization, are the children so rude now" Just when Shi Leiyin felt that the two girls were not reacting normally, and planned to wake them up. An unfamiliar girl's voice came from behind him.
Turning his head, Shi Leiyin saw the owner of the voice. This is a little girl who looks about the same age as Wendy, but is shorter.
He was wearing a purple mage robe, but it seemed to be obviously out of size, and the hem of the robe had been dragged to the ground, and even the cuffs were almost to the ground. The girl has the same purple wizard hat on her head, but there is no yellow star on the hat that represents the wizard rank. The girl's face was a playful expression, which was in great contrast to her young appearance and age.
"Are you ......" Shi Leiyin was about to ask, but heard two voices from behind him, "It's really delicious", turned around with a wry smile, and found that Wendy and Wren finally couldn't stand the temptation, ignoring the fact that the owner of the house had returned, eating the sugar ball on the table, and becoming the new victims.
"Oh, it's actually a slime that can talk, a fourth-order slime is a rare breed," the wizard girl's expression became a little surprised, "Do you want to be my pet?"
"Can you tell me what happened to them first?" Shrayin had already made sure that there was something wrong with the candy ball, otherwise no matter how delicious it was, a mage like Jessica wouldn't have completely ignored his surroundings.
"Oh, it's just my newfound candy of happiness," the wizard girl replied as she walked slowly to the table, as if she was afraid of stepping on the hem of her robe. "People who eat this candy will feel happy, but the side effect is what you see, during the candy's action time, they will lose all other normal reaction abilities. It's just being ...... Hey...... I won't resist" The girl laughed very evilly, how could Shi Leiyin not know what she meant, and suddenly there was a chill, this girl will definitely not be as young as she looks.
"How long will this ball of sugar last?" asked Slim, forgetting to glance at Erica
"It's about a few hours, the individual physique is different, and the effect time is not the same" The wizard girl stretched out her body hard, then reached out and took the plate of candy down, "But don't let them eat it anymore, otherwise it won't be better for long"
"I'm really causing you trouble" When the girl passed by Shi Leiyin, Shi Leiyin had now become sensitive to magic detection ability, and sensed the magic power on the girl's body in an instant, and the huge magic power made him shudder, compared to the four-hundred-year-old Xiu Kara, it was only high. "Please forgive us for our reckless actions" Naturally, Shrayin wanted to bow, but what would a slime bow look like?
"Poof...... Haha, you're so cute," the girl couldn't help but laugh when she saw Shi Leiyin's clumsy movements. "Okay, okay, I'm not angry, no one has been here for many years, so it's our fate, my name is Charlotte, what about you?"
"My name is Shrayin" Charlotte Shrayin's mind suddenly remembered a book that I had seen earlier that seemed to have a similar name, which was the name "Strange Candy" that appeared in the history of the Mead Kingdom earlier than that...... Charlotte ...... Could it be ......" Shi Leiyin read out unconsciously.
"Hey, does anyone remember me?" the girl's expression changed to surprise, and then she returned to a smile, "Yes, I'm the Charlotte Ben Trovaldo, the witch of candy."
