Volume 1 The Chili Sauce Smuggler Won't Meet the Waste Witch Chapter 18 Angelina
The city of Cala, the royal capital of the Kingdom of San Martín.
The bustling streets are filled with handsomely dressed adventurers and soldiers who keep an eye on them to prevent them from causing trouble.
Speaking of which, the soldiers of this world have never liked the existence of adventurers - in order to save troops, countries have vigorously promoted the adventurer system, so that those who are idle all day because they can't find a job become adventurers, and then help the country hunt monsters everywhere. Although this is indeed a good thing for human society, the presence of adventurers also protects human cities to a large extent.
But these adventurers are barbarians without rules after all, and in various cities you can always hear adventurers getting drunk and gathering to make trouble. Every time something like this happens, the guards of the city need to stop it, but adventurers are often the ones who hate soldiers the most - they are the ones who are desperately hunting monsters outside, why can these guards get the money they can get with their lives as long as they wander around the city safely?
Between the two, they are in a state where you don't like me, I look at you and you get angry, and friction is a common thing.
But now what we need to care about is not the adventurers in the city, but Zhen Xiang and his party who were stopped by the soldiers outside the city gate.
The reason why they were stopped was not because Zhen Xiang had something terrible on them, nor because Zhen Xiang's identity was recognized. It's just that a soldier who laughed at Ania during the body search was hit back by Ania after he laughed at "Zhenping", and a word that was even more excessive than Felix and the three of them directly made the soldier faint - yes, a soldier was scolded by Ania and fainted, so they were stopped.
Although the soldier's life was not in danger, how could such a thing happen and let Ania into the city so easily? Isn't this a disgrace to the soldiers of the royal capital?
Although they said that everyone except Ania could go in, Ania also said that if she didn't go in, there would be no way to buy the correct scroll, so several people stopped outside the city gate.
"Do you want to enter through another gate?" André suggested to them, after all, this king did not have only one city gate, and he only needed to take a slight detour to enter through the other gate, so there was no need to waste time here.
Ania retorted, "How is it possible to get in?" Didn't you see the soldier who just left? He must have gone to another gate to inform the soldiers guarding the gate that we were not allowed to enter the city, and these incompetent soldiers would only be very tough in this way with people with no background. Didn't you see them going out to hunt monsters? When he saw the nobleman, he immediately nodded his head and ......"
Zhen Xiang comforted: "Forget it, this king can't get in, we can also go to other cities, right?" It's not like it's the only one here that sells scrolls......"
"No, you have to buy it here." Ania resolutely said: "Although we are going to the magic item shop to buy ordinary magic scrolls, there is another person we must meet - the court magician in this royal capital, Hobson. He's the best at using transfer magic, and we have to get a scroll from him that seals it with transfer magic, or do you want to get stuck on the island and can't leave after finally going to the island to find Zakura, Benin? There is a huge magic circle on that island that interferes with the use of magic, and only the transfer magic unleashed by the world's best magicians can take us away from the island. ”
The three of them nodded blankly, although they were all curious about why Ania was so familiar with the island that no one had ever been to, but since Ania said so, they had to follow Aniah's arrangement, right?
At this time, he happened to see the carriage slowly approaching this way not far away, and Ania smiled: "It seems that luck is not bad, there is a helper so soon." ”
Helper? What helper? Zhen Xiang asked Ania "What do you want to do?" Are you sure you can go in? ”
"That's natural—see the carriage? Looking at the depth of the rut, the people sitting in it were either two lighter people, or a particularly heavy person. And the man who drove the car was young and strong, and he should have acted as a bodyguard and a coachman at the same time. The people in there should be people with more noble status. Anyway, if we can get involved with the people above, these guards won't dare to embarrass us anymore, right? ”
Zhen Xiang nodded blankly, but how did this Ania judge what the people inside were like? Can this guy tell by looking at the ruts? Zhen Xiang felt that there was no difference at all.
Then, Ania pulled Zhen Xiang and Younis towards the carriage, and Andre also followed the carriage.
The man in charge of driving the car on the opposite side subconsciously reached out and pressed the saber at his waist after seeing the three approaching. Although the other party is only three girls, one is a magician, the other is a holy magician, and there is a man who does not look simple. His intuition told him that he must not despise these people, although it was at the gate of the royal capital, but if these people did it, the guards behind would definitely not be able to react to help.
"Stop!" Unable to get any closer, the man drew his sword and pointed at Zhen Xiang and said, "Don't get any closer—if you get closer, I'll assume you're an assassin, and don't blame me for the sword in my hand for not having long eyes." ”
Ania decisively spread her hands to indicate that she was not carrying any weapons, and Elizabeth, who was also on her shoulders, followed with two front paws in sync with Aniah.
"Don't be nervous, this little brother - we're not bad people, I'm an old acquaintance with the young lady in the car behind you."
What Ania said was absolutely nonsense, Zhen Xiang didn't think that this squatting magician in the family would be able to know the nobles in this royal capital. What's more, how did she deduce that the person in the car was a girl and not a man?
"Chris? What happened? The voice that came out of the carriage was a girl's voice, but it didn't sound like the voice of a pampered young lady.
The man known as Chris replied, "There are a few people blocking the road ahead, and there is a magician girl who claims to be an acquaintance of the eldest lady......"
Then the car door opened, and two girls poked their heads out of it. One of them was dressed in luxury and knew at a glance what it was, while the other person dressed as a maid asked, "Acquaintance of the eldest lady?" These people are like never before. ”
Listening to this voice, it seems that the person who asked just now is also this maid, right? She turned to the eldest lady behind her and asked, "Miss, do you know these people?" ”
The eldest lady, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old and was about the same as Eunice, but who was completely capable of crushing Eunice in terms of appearance and temperament, shook her head blankly and said, "I don't know the four of them...... Could it be that you have recognized the wrong person? ”
"How is that kind of thing possible? I am a person who knows shame, and if I don't really know you, how can I stop your carriage in such a place and waste your time? Miss Angelina, after all, that was a long time ago, and I think it's normal that you don't remember. ”
Ania seems to have said the other party's name, right? But how did she know the other person's name? Zhen Xiang even wondered if Ania was talking nonsense, but then looked at the eldest lady's reaction...... It seems like it's really the name?
"Y-How do you know my name?" Sure enough, the eldest lady named Angelina asked Ania in her sweet voice curiously, "Have we really met?" But I don't have any impression of you......"
After seeing that the other party actually said Angelina's name, Chris was even more vigilant - the other party may have investigated Angelina's identity and came to assassinate her, and this situation can't let the other party get close to Angelina.
Ania laughed and said, "Since Miss Angelina doesn't remember, forget it - in fact, I stopped your carriage specifically in the hope that you can do me a favor." ”
Angelina thought for a moment, then smiled: "So you don't actually know me, you just want me to help, right?" ”
Ania smiled and said nothing, and Angelina continued, "What do you want me to do you a favor?" ”
Ania turned to the group of guards behind her and said, "As you can see, I was forbidden to enter the royal capital because of a quarrel with the guards guarding the city gates, and I hope you will order them to allow me to enter the royal capital." Oh, there's something wrong with the word 'command', right? But I think since you, the Duke of the Nation and the daughter of Duke Griffin, they should be giving some face, right? ”
Angelina was even more curious about Aniah, she beckoned Ania to come over, and after the three of them approached, she asked Aniah, "I can help you, but you have to tell me why you know my name - you haven't seen me before, right?" If that's the case, it's too boring. ”
Hooked...... Ania just wants to make this guy interested in him, otherwise how can he hook up with the nobles in this royal capital, and then use them to meet the court magician Hobson?
Ania had guessed - she had already investigated the affairs of all the nobles in the royal capital, including their families. She had heard about everyone's appearances in various taverns and other places before she came, so as soon as she saw Angelina, she sifted through all the noble girls of this age in her mind several times, and finally determined Angelina's identity.
But Ania certainly wouldn't say that, she looked up at Angelina and smiled confidently, "Because I can read minds." ”
