Chapter 204: As One
The reason why life is colorful is because many things that shouldn't happen happen anyway, and many things that you don't want to know know just know happen just now.
Zoya had already heard of the rumors in Northland because she had a good friend, Charlotte. After the rumors spread, Charlotte informed her nervously. Zoya knew, and so did Irene, who was inseparable from her.
Now that the missions of Mulberry and Hill have left, Charlotte and Mavi have moved out of the city. Charlotte is better enough to live in the wizard's exclusive quarters. Ma Wei was more miserable and temporarily stayed at Yi'er's house.
A few friends were wandering aimlessly along the road outside the city at this time. Charlotte and Mavi's eyes swept over Zoya from time to time, and although they met from time to time, they were still surprised by Zoya's changes. With the same facial pattern as the great wizard Bran, he is still immature but looks like Dani.
What's wrong with her? What is her ability? Now many people are curious about her, wondering how far she can go.
Zoya seems very calm on the surface, and she turns a blind eye to the voyeuristic gaze, but she is not at peace inside. After learning the news, Zoya immediately found the ancient tree for verification. It was impossible to hide the affairs of the city from the ancient tree, and although he would consciously ignore some less important events, the way he recorded the environment made it impossible for him to miss any details. As long as it happened within the reach of his magic, his body would instinctively record it.
She received an affirmative answer from the ancient tree, and at the same time, the ancient tree's indifference made her angry. So she asked, "You don't have any idea?" But the old tree asked, "What do you think?" Mistress? I am still the owner of the tree! In anger, she kicked the old tree hard, and then limped away.
Yes, the ancient tree is right. Including the Northlanders here, and even her, they can be regarded as the masters of the city. But can it be the same?
Monsters like Ancient Trees, Flowey, and Bran, they are transcendent beings. No matter how things change here, it will be difficult to affect them. I'm so stupid that I want to see the reaction of a normal person from a monster.
What's even more stupid is that I actually fell in love with one of them.
Actually, I'm a monster too, right? Zoya subconsciously touched her face, her own facial lines, appearance, do they really belong to her?
In the midst of suffering and anticipation, how can everything that has been obtained through all kinds of hard work not belong to oneself?
In silence, Erin glanced at Zoya beside her, and although she didn't know exactly what she was thinking, she could feel her conflicted feelings.
Although I have been learning and imitating Dani, thinking and doing are completely different. She could have done better, but every time she imitated Dani, her body began to instinctively reject.
She is a dragoon, a dragoon on par with the Northlanders. She had envied the Northland's weapons, armor, and smelting techniques, but she had never envied the manners of the Northlanders.
She was proud and still is proud, it's in her natural nature.
She liked everything in Bran Hills, but she didn't identify with the people who lived there. She wanted to take her place, not become like them.
She liked the gentle Zoya, not the little woman in front of her who was getting tougher and tougher. Now I can't beat her, and I feel tired from every competition. The exhaustion that cannot be eliminated gradually accumulates and gradually becomes overwhelming.
Do I like Bran, or do I like his cottage? She was a little confused, maybe she liked Brando. At that time, I somehow liked to stay by his side, liked his cleanliness, liked his funny, liked the way he rejected others, and liked him who didn't look like a Northland at all.
Zoya gave up her identity, forgot many things, and became a Northlander. What about me?
Bran won't give up his identity, and I can't give up my dragoon identity either, so I say I like his villa. In fact, I already knew it in my heart, but I still wanted to fight. Knowing that there is nothing to fight for, knowing that the villa cannot be his own.
At that time, he and Bran walked out of the villa with their necks around their necks and waists, and rode around together. Now, even with some resentment towards Bran, it would be nice if he were still an idiot in the villa.
Several people went listlessly from the city to the outside of the city, and then began to return from outside the city.
Ma Wei couldn't help but complain, "It's all their fault, nothing is wrong." ”
Charlotte glanced at him, "The Great Wizard shouldn't be too involved in mundane things. A person who can understand the needs of the world is more suitable for the position of city lord. That's good for Northterland, and for most of the people in it. ”
Ma Wei said angrily: "Can't you settle down?"
"How do you settle down? The Great Wizard still doesn't have a clear attitude. We want to buy a piece of land, but we can't settle here. ”
Ma Wei looked Xia Luo up and down, and asked in a tone of uncertainty, "We?"
Conscious of her speechlessness, Charlotte hesitated, "Yes, we wizards. ”
"You're a princess, what's good here. The food is not good, and the accommodation is poor!"
"But it's safe and free. As long as I obey the laws here, the city will protect me. This is the guarantee of the Great Wizard Bran, and the assurance of all the wizards here to each other. I don't have to worry anymore that I will be mortgaged and sold at will by my family. ”
Charlotte turned her head to Zoya and said softly, "I'm sorry. ”
"It's okay, I already know. Zoya looked at Charlotte's suddenly white face and sighed, "You think that Bran is not here, so you can make some small moves." But who can you hide?"
Charlotte was a little flustered, "Who knows?"
Zoya said angrily: "Many people know it, but they don't want to pay attention to it now, so you don't have to be too afraid." But as a wizard and you want to rely on money to get land here, what is the difference between you and those mortals?
As a friend, I also need to remind you that the city is Bran's. No matter what you think or do, you are no different from mortals in His eyes.
Although you study with Bai Pao, you are also his students. Before you learned the real skills, you started to calculate your own teacher, I really don't understand what you think?"
Zoya's reminder made Charlotte break out in a cold sweat. After that day, the rumors began to dissipate, and many people were relieved.
But the matter is not over, this city does need a city lord who can be close to the mundane.
Moreover, the environment still attracts young wizards who are studying, and the talk of the mundane is sinking deep into their hearts.
They long to get rid of the shackles of the world, but they can't do without the world's money and food. They have learned to be superior to mortals, but they have not yet mastered otherworldly powers. Although most of them have a lot of money, they rely on the family supply, once they want to get out of control......
Therefore, they still want to have a permanent property here, have a continuous and stable source of income, and a home to live in.
Nine times out of ten, life is not satisfactory, Saturday is in good spirits, get up early in the morning, thinking about taking a cold shower and writing a few more words. During the bath, the golden rooster independently soaped one foot and then switched to the other. said that it was too late, but when I felt that my feet slipped and it was dark in front of my eyes, the person fell out. His arm was broken, his buttocks were blue, and his head was in close contact with the door. The next day, his right hand was not very strong. I insisted on working for two days, resting at home today, and as a result, the upstairs was renovated, and the electric drill rang for a day......
