Britto is a coastal town on the northeast coast of the city-state of Estak Commerce, although the town has countless mercenaries who trade from all over the world every year, and the clean streets made of granite are always bustling and noisy, but every evening, when the sun sets, the atmosphere of peace and tranquility will unconsciously spread in every corner of the town.

Brito's taverns are few and far between, and most of them are concentrated in the middle of nowhere, far from the bustling center of the town, where the workers and mercenaries of the day's busy day gather to enjoy a rare leisure time, and the scantily clad waitresses are hospitable to the crowd amid the noisy foul language and conversation, and if you have your eye on a waitress, they won't mind having a dewy relationship with you if you can get the right price.

Of course, not every maid will sell her physical dignity for money.

Hermia slapped away a hand that had quietly touched her delicate buttocks in an attempt to take advantage of her, and her beautiful and beautiful face smiled at the indecent guest, who seemed to be unconcerned about the discovery of his oil-rubbing behavior, but laughed unscrupulously, he took out a handful of silver coins from his bosom and put it on the wine table, and pointed to the glass full of pale yellow wine, Hermia didn't say a word, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and immediately won a cheer from the people around her!

Hermia turned the glass upside down, wiped the stains on her lips and put it back in its place, picked up a silver coin on the table, smiled in front of the guest, and then fluttered to the next place.

"Hermia! I'm willing to pay a hundred gold coins for your first night! I don't know if you'd like to?! ”

At this time, someone in the cheerful crowd suddenly shouted.

"By the time you have a hundred gold coins, my children will be as tall as they'll be."

Faced with the teasing of the guests behind her, Hermia turned her head and grimaced and replied with an unceremonious sneer. The group burst into laughter.

There is hardly a single drinker who frequents the rudder tavern who does not know Hermia. It could even be said that half of the guests who came to the rudder tavern were because of Hermia. This is not only because Hermia is delicate and attractive, but most importantly, she is also a virgin who has never been captured, and once a merchant wanted to buy her first night for eighty Estak gold coins, but Hermia cleanly refused, and the sensation caused by this incident made countless drinkers flock to her.

Many of them had ill-intentioned guests, but the next day they could be found in the gutter in Brito's corner, and Hermia was said to have had a close relationship with Brito's young captain. Since then, the guys who dare to fight Hermia for their bad ideas have basically disappeared.

After a few laps back and forth among the drinkers, Hermia returned to her room in the tavern and leaned back on the old couch, closing her eyes and breathing a sigh of relief.

"Hermia! Today's work is as good as ever, it's not early, go back and rest. ”

At this time, the door of the room creaked open, and the harsh noise outside the door immediately echoed in his ears, and a middle-aged man glanced at Hermia who was resting on the sofa. Said with a kind smile.

Hermia covered her ears and slowly opened her eyes. She tilted her head, looked at the middle-aged man in front of the door, and said angrily: "Uncle Motz, how many times have I told you, you must remember to open and close the door in the future......"

The middle-aged man hurriedly closed the door, blocking the noisy noise outside, and said with a sneering smile: "Alas, I'm old, and my memory is really much worse...... Then again, Hermia, is your mother's illness much better? ”

Speaking of her mother, Hermia's expression suddenly darkened, she shook her head, sighed lightly and said: "Yesterday I took her to the church to ask the priest to perform a healing technique for her again, but her condition still has not improved, maybe the priest is right, only the master pharmacist of the Alchemy Association can have a cure for her illness, alas...... But where is there a master apothecary in a small town like Brito, I have asked the Alchemy Society of Brito that only Port Louis, the capital of the trading city-state of Estac, can have a master apothecary...... However, even if I find the master apothecary, if I want to ask the other party to make a potion to cure my mother, the cost will probably be astronomical......"

"Alas, don't think about these unhappy things, go back and rest early, if even you are tired, who will take care of your mother for you then." Motz said with a reassuring sigh.

"Thank you, Uncle Motz, I'll go first, goodbye."

Hermia got up from the couch and nodded in thanks before turning and leaving in the direction of the back door.

"This kid is always so polite and polite, alas......"

Looking at Hermia's departing back, Motz shook his head helplessly, as if sighing.

Hermia was born into a single family, her father was a merchant, and when he was traveling to Port Louis through Brito for commercial trading, he met her mother by accident, and this relationship fermented quickly, and it was not long before Hermia's mother became pregnant, her merchant father had vowed to take care of her and the child for the rest of his life, but after a business trip, her merchant father never returned to Brito.

Some people say that her father was killed by robbers and bandits, and some people say that her father abandoned their mother and daughter, in short, Hermia's mother still gave birth to Hermia despite the opposition of relatives and friends around her, and raised her little by little, but a few years ago, she finally fell ill after frequent fatigue.

In order to take care of her mother and support the family, Hermia begged her mother's friend Uncle Motz to get the job of a tavern waitress, and the young and beautiful Hermia immediately attracted the attention of all the drinkers when she first came to work in the rudder tavern, from the very clumsy at the beginning, silently enduring the harassment of the guests, and finally the sleek skill, it can be said that Motz watched Hermia's growth step by step.

Maybe it's because of her father's disappearance and abandonment of her mother, Hermia has had an extreme sense of distrust and security towards men since she was a child, as if all men are estrus beasts who covet her beauty and want to hook her up with her in her eyes, even the boys who grew up with her childhood sweetheart.

As the night grew deeper, Hermia hurried down the dimly lit street alone, and she could feel someone following her from behind, and she was used to it, because she knew who had sent her to follow her!

At this time, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the middle of the street and blocked her path.

She frowned at the man in black standing in the middle of the empty street, and continued straight forward as if she had no fear in her heart, and when she passed by the other man a few paces away, she suddenly stopped.

Because, the man in black said a word.

"Do you want to heal your mother?" ――
