Chapter 116: Leah is not a girl
"Jingle bellโ"
As Leah, Fein, and Lilith pushed open the door of the shop and walked inside, the wind chimes hanging behind the door immediately played a series of ripples, causing the shopkeeper to immediately wake up from his nap while resting on an upholstered chair, and then found three customers patronizing his shop at the door of the shop, and then immediately got up from his chair and greeted the three people who walked into the store: "Oh, welcome, three guests, I am the owner here, and here are the most beautiful necklaces and the most beautiful rings, you can look this way." โ
At the store's warm invitation, Finn and Lilith soon followed Leah to the side of a transparent glass cabinet. Beneath the glass partition of the cabinet were all sorts of precious stones, beautiful stones with smooth appearances that reflected different colors of light under the light line of the ceiling, and immediately attracted Lilith's curious dark eyes.
"Finn, these gems are so beautiful." Lilith rested her hands on the glass case, her eyes slithering over the cabinet to observe the gems beneath her gaze.
"Is there any one of them that you particularly like?" Finn thought that Lilith was also cute like this, so he asked her casually.
The black-haired warlock girl seemed to have encountered a problem, and immediately carefully withdrew her hands in front of the long black dress she was wearing, and her black eyes looked at the gems in the cupboard seriously and blinked, as if she was really thinking carefully about the casual question that Fain had just asked her.
Looking at Lilith, who seemed to be lost in thought for a moment, Finn couldn't help but smile, thinking that girls really have no resistance to shiny things, and their characteristics in this regard are quite similar to those of dragons who are also keen on collecting treasures.
The girl's answer was not able to come out of her mouth for a long time, but fortunately, the owner of the jewelry store was an old fritter who had been running the store for many years, and he was also experienced in the business field, and he saw a lot of various customers. He looked at Lilith carefully with a cautious eye, and quickly guessed in his heart that Lilith was probably the dignified child of a rich family, but for some reason he hadn't seen much of the world, and Finn looked a bit like a noble kid from a traveling family, with more experience than Lilith, but still too young compared to him.
Thinking of this, he rolled his eyes, then cleared his throat with his fist in front of his mouth, and then smiled and proposed to the three people who were attracted by him: "If this young lady can't decide, I wonder if I can make a small recommendation to you?" โ
"Tell me about it." Finn and Leah looked at each other and raised an eyebrow at the shopkeeper.
"Well, sir, please take a look at this." Seeing that Fein agreed, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and found a key to open a dark cabinet under the glass cabinet, took out a pair of exquisite earrings from it and placed them on the glass table of the cabinet, and stared at Fein mysteriously with his eyes, "You see, these two earrings were only fortunate to be acquired by a big merchant." They are worth a lot of money and are said to have been blessed by the elven priests who enchanted the goddess of love, Navrin, in the temples of the Far South Forest. Buy these earrings, one for the shy brunette lady and the other for the lovely chestnut redhead, and the two of them will surely walk through a romantic ...... with you."
"Poof!"
Before he could finish the last half of the "romantic journey" in his mouth, Leah on the side almost didn't squirt out the stomach water in his stomach, and then immediately glared at the shopkeeper with a ghostly expression: "What kind of mess?" Another one for this lovely chestnut red-haired lady? Are you talking about me? โ
"Gree......" The shopkeeper was a little confused by Leah's shouting, "Could it be that this young lady, aren't you with this gentleman here?" โ
"We're in this together." Leah held her forehead and was speechless, "But why do you treat me like a girl?" Please see clearly, I'm an absolutely normal man, okay! You see, what is it? โ
With that, Leah raised her chin and raised her hand to point to the shopkeeper's neck.
"Huh? Oh yes, I'm sorry. Just like when Finn first met Leah, the owner of the jewelry store took a closer look at Leah's throat and saw a small Adam's apple bulging there, so he quickly waved his hand to Leah in a little panic and apologized, "I'm very sorry, this little, oh no, sir." It's an oversight of the next, the first time I met a man like you who is more beautiful than many ladies, this misunderstanding is an oversight of the next, sorry, sorry......"
The shopkeeper sincerely apologized to Leah, but Leah gritted his teeth and slowly raised a fist in a bit of a breakdown, and immediately wanted to ask the other party what the hell was about the phrase "to be a man like you who is more beautiful than many ladies".
However, compared to Leah, who was accidentally poked in a sensitive spot by the shopkeeper, Lilith didn't have much embarrassment about the shopkeeper's words. Perhaps, just as Finn observed and guessed about her day after day during his days with her, a large part of her emotions and memories were missing for some unknown reason, so that after listening to the shopkeeper's words about selling Finn's earrings, she did not bow her head shyly as the shopkeeper imagined, but only raised a hand and pinched her ear, then shook her head slightly, turned her head sideways and asked Finn: "Does this pendant need to be pierced through a small hole in the ear to be put on?" โ
"Hmm...... At least that's how these pair of earrings are. Hearing Lilith's words, Finn rubbed his mouth in time to resist the idea of teasing Leah, and then picked up one of the earrings from the glass cabinet that claimed to be blessed by the goddess of love under the eyes of the shopkeeper and observed.
"Then don't do it." Lilith looked at the other earring left on the counter a little reluctantly, and after hesitating, said, "It hurts to pierce the ear." โ
"That ......" the shopkeeper looked at Finn a little embarrassed, for fear that the business that was about to be in hand would be ruined.
"We don't want these earrings." Finn knew what the shopkeeper was worried about, so he returned the earrings he had picked up to observe, "You can change something for us to see, but don't say that every treasure here has been blessed by the goddess of love." โ
"Eh, that's good, that's good." The shopkeeper took back the earrings from his shop from Finn's hand, and quickly nodded to Finn with his signature smile, and then buried his head again, looking for new goods from the dark cabinet under the glass cabinet.
At this moment, as the shopkeeper buried his head in the dark cupboard, Lilith's dark eyes suddenly flashed with a light that she felt something. The black-haired warlock girl looked up at the stairs leading to the attic of the shop with a blank face, and after a moment Finn noticed her gaze and asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong, Lilith?" โ
โโฆโฆ Magic. Lilith half-opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then replied softly, "Around, there seems to be a faint floating magic floating from that side. (To be continued.) )
