68. Barbara the witch
"I'm not, I'm ....."
was forcibly pushed by her father in front of the bewitching-looking strange woman, and when Diana was still confused, she heard her father's next words, and she subconsciously wanted to refute.
Why didn't she know when she became the heir to the family, wasn't the heir her brother Charles?
It's just that before she could finish speaking, she was brutally interrupted by her father.
"I said you are, you are."
"But it's not fair to Charles."
The girl yelled angrily at her father.
"It's a decision I made with Charles."
Hudson was a little tired as he soothed his angry daughter.
Other people's children can grab their heads for the position of the head of the family, fighting for your life, why is this stupid daughter of her own family still not happy to give her the position of the head of the family, although this harmonious relationship between the children makes him very happy as a father.
"Let you smile, please rest assured, Madam, our whole family is very supportive of the little girl's study."
He smiled and said to Cynthia, afraid that his daughter's words would annoy the legendary notoriously moody witch.
However, Cynthia didn't pay attention to the girl's words, and her attention was already focused on the name that Hudson had just said.
Barb...
It's a name that's just as famous on the mystical side, even more so than Cynthia.
Although the name still sounds a little cute, the owner of the name has nothing to do with cuteness in any way.
She was an old woman, with wrinkles that could trap mosquitoes, hunched back, ragged clothes, with a huge head disproportionate to her body, her face covered with disgusting bumps, her dim eyes perpetually glittering with greed, and her greatest hobby was stirring her perpetually foul-smelling potions.
This is a perfect fit for the image of the evil old witch in the story, and in fact the prototype of the evil old witch image is indeed Barbara.
No one knows exactly how old Barbara is, because according to the oldest person who can confirm her age on the mysterious side, an old dragon who has lived for almost 3,000 years, she grew up listening to the legend of the witch Barbara.
Therefore, many scholars believe that Barbara may have been one of the first people to explore and embark on the path of wizards, and that she was the oldest wizard alive and still active.
But although this old witch is still active, but her whereabouts are unpredictable, you often hear rumors that someone has made a deal with the old witch who is suspected of Barbara, and has obtained some magic potion, but if you want to take the initiative to find this old witch, you can't find it, she seems to appear anywhere at any time, but not anywhere at any time.
In short, it takes a certain amount of luck to meet Barbara, and once you do, you can make a deal with this old witch who is in love with an equal exchange.
In fact, not to mention ordinary people, even on the mysterious side, Barbara has become a symbol of adventure, and is regarded by many young wizards as a character in bedtime stories.
But Cynthia is different from ordinary wizards, she knows Barbara, not only because Barbara is a sage of the Wizards' Guild with her, but more importantly, this old witch is her teacher.
..............
"Others say that you can fulfill the wish of being human, then please give me the power, enough power for me to take revenge."
The young half-elf said to the ugly old witch in front of him.
The girl's wish also made the old witch smile intimidatingly, and she stroked the girl's face with her foul-smelling hand, and then said her terms.
"Yes, but you need to exchange it for love..."
...............
Remembering the memory of the first time she saw that damn old guy, Cynthia's teeth itched.
She glanced back at her brother, then eased her emotions and asked the middle-aged gentleman in front of her with a smile.
"Mr. Halder, can you show me the bell?"
She pointed to the bell in Hudson's hand, there were not many people in the world who could make this prop that could sense the traces of her as a sage, and Barbara's old immortal was one of them.
"Absolutely."
Hudson, who knew nothing, readily agreed, anyway, he had already found Cynthia, so the bell would have no effect.
Cynthia reached out to take the bell, and as long as she got the props made by the old immortal, she could trace the old guy's whereabouts.
Since she left the school, she has never seen the teacher and her old man, this is not good, she is a disciple, but she thinks about how to be filial to the teacher day and night.
The hand got closer to the bell, and the witch's smile became brighter and brighter, but unfortunately, the moment she touched the bell, her smile froze.
"Hahaha, my lovely little Cynthia, surprised, surprised? Teacher, are you satisfied with the little apprentice I found for you? You are also a big man, it's time to take an apprentice and rest assured, don't run after the teacher like a child every day, my old man is old, and I want to enjoy the peace alone. ”
The ordinary bell was full of cracks the moment it touched Cynthia, and then it was shattered and there was not even a slag left, except for the big head of an ugly old witch who made Merlin almost sanan check let out a gong-like laugh, and disappeared after saying this.
Cynthia: "......"
She's not very angry, after all, this kind of chase has been going on for a long time since she stepped into the realm of the sage, and every time it's this ending, she's used to it, and this time she just wants to try to see if the old immortal is so demented that he forgot to take precautions, and now it seems that the old immortal is still quite sober.
Alas, this damn old fellow did have a hand in the first place, saying that she had taught herself all the witchcraft she knew, but now that the witchcraft she used to hide seemed to be ubiquitous for so many years, Cynthia still had no clue.
Jiang is still old and spicy, when will she get back her apprenticeship fee if she continues like this.
Damn, it would have been nice if I had changed my conditions back then, so that my brother's curse wouldn't have to find anyone else.
Cynthia laughed angrily.
............
"That, Ms. Cynthia?"
Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, Hudson, who was a human spirit, was keenly aware that the ugly old witch who introduced him seemed to have cheated her, and the relationship between the two didn't look very good, okay, he suddenly became a little uneasy.
It's just that, to his surprise, the witch on the opposite side nodded quite simply.
"The qualifications are really good, I'm afraid that the accumulation of your Halder family for hundreds of years is not all on this kid alone, but he can barely be my apprentice."
Cynthia reached out and touched the hand of Diana, a girl who didn't understand anything, and the next moment a large number of complex lines appeared on the girl's body, and when she saw those lines, the witch nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at her brother who ate melons.
However, this time, Merlin took a few steps back as if he had expected it, silently hid behind the head maid, and grimaced at Cynthia.
Hehe, your own apprentice will teach it yourself, don't try to dump the pot on me.
In this regard, Cynthia was a little helpless.
Obviously such a beautiful girl, what a beautiful face, what a good figure, look at this development, it makes her envious to death, why doesn't the wooden brother open his mind, when will the curse be unraveled if it goes on like this.
But she didn't embarrass Merlin this time, after all, this new apprentice is just an ordinary rich, and the younger brother's family's big royal treasury is indeed not short of money, so it can only be accepted by her, a poor ordinary witch, and there is an organization of people in her family waiting to be fed, and she urgently needs a stupid and wealthy owner like the Halder family.
The gold coins sent to the door, don't be in vain.
