Chapter 9: A student of the Black Magician

A man floating on the river?

When Al and Weiss heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then hurriedly walked out of the cabin together.

After leaving the cabin, they looked in the direction pointed by the boatman, and the two of them also saw the thing floating on the river.

The distance is still a little far, and Weiss has average eyesight, so he can't really see it: "Er, that's a person, right?"

Aier frowned slightly, and said, "It's indeed a person, and he's still alive." Boatman, pull over the boat!"

The boatman just felt like it at first, but when he heard that Aier was sure that it was indeed a person, he immediately became anxious, and before Aier finished speaking, he hurriedly operated the ship to change direction.

As the boat moved a little closer, Vis could see the man's general appearance as she floated up on her back.

This is a woman, looking at her appearance, she should not be too old, similar to Weiss, and she still looks very beautiful, with long hair floating in the water, and she is wearing a dress that looks fluffy, soaked in the water, spreading out a large area.

Vis looked at the woman closely, and then said to Al with confusion, "Why do I feel a little weird, I seem to see her open her eyes and look at us?"

Aier's eyes were also a little strange: "You read that right, she did see us, and she frowned. ”

The boatman was indeed a good man, and although he had heard the conversation between the two of them, he still controlled the boat with an anxious face, and when he had approached, he took out another rope and tied it in a circle at one end, ready to scoop up the woman.

Just as the boatman was about to throw the rope, the woman in the river suddenly spoke: "If you dare to throw a rope at me, I will overturn your boat!"

The boatman was startled, and only after seeing that it was indeed the woman in the river who was speaking, did he hesitate and shouted: "I said girl! It's already the end of December! What are you doing in the water on such a cold day? Come up quickly!"

The boatman had good intentions, but the woman didn't seem to appreciate it at all: "Why do I want you to care?! Hmph! Nosy! Miss Ben doesn't need you to save her! Get out of here!"

The uncle of the boat family was stunned when he heard it, and he didn't know what to say, but Weiss on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and said angrily: "You woman, why do you talk so ugly! Uncle is kind, why are you like this?!"

The woman rubbed her brows impatiently, took a deep breath, and said, "Alas! It's really unlucky! When did I say I wanted you to save me? Get out of here!"

Weis's temper also came up: "You guy! You don't know the hearts of good people! You can't even speak! I have to drag you out of the water today!"

Vis floated on the river with Al today

God, at the end of the day, not only did he not find the target, but he didn't even hold Aier's hand once, and his heart was already on fire, and he was finally ready to go ashore, and he ran into such a nasty guy, and the anger in Weis's heart could no longer be suppressed.

Without saying a word, Weiss snatched the rope of the boatman, spun it around a few times, and then went directly to the woman in the river!

Once missed, Weiss withdrew the rope and threw it a second time, but the woman in the water was also annoyed, grabbed the rope that was thrown over, and then used force with his hands to prepare to tear Weiss into the water!

Weiss stumbled and almost fell into the water, and then came back to his senses, grabbed the side of the boat with one hand, pulled the rope with the other, and the woman in the water did not let go, and the two began an inexplicable wrestling.

It's just that in the wrestling in the water, no matter who has more strength between the two, the distance between the boat and the woman is getting closer and closer, and the woman also discovered this after a while, and said angrily: "You psychotic!"

As soon as the woman's words fell, she saw a black light flash in her palm, and then spread along the rope towards Ves.

The speed was extremely fast, Weiss didn't have time to react at all, but Aier on the side saw the opportunity quickly, where would she let Weiss take this blow casually, one step sideways, she reached out and held the rope, and then a cold energy directly counterattacked, faster and stronger, not only defeated the black light, but also injured the woman.

The woman only felt a pain in her palm, and subconsciously let go of her hand, and then frowned, but she didn't fight back again, but raised her palm and looked at it in front of her eyes.

Looking at the frozen wound in the palm of her hand, the woman suddenly smiled: "Hehe! What pure ice energy, such subtle magic control, such an amazing spell casting speed!"

After the woman finished speaking, the dress on her body suddenly floated slowly in the water, and the water splashed on the water.

The boatman's face suddenly showed a frightened look, and Weiss couldn't help but get nervous, but Aier still didn't change his face, and didn't seem to be nervous at all, but reached out and patted Weiss on the shoulder: "Don't worry, it's okay!"

Weiss was immediately not afraid, not only that, but she also took the opportunity to grab El's palm, and then pretended to be even more scared: "El, I'm afraid!"

Al glanced at Vis helplessly, but instead of exposing her, he turned to look at the woman in the water.

The woman looked at Al with interest, and was glared at by Vess, and then looked at Vis again.

The splash continued, but after a few moments, Vis realized that something was wrong, for she saw that something seemed to be slowly rising beneath the woman, gradually lifting her out of the water.

It didn't take long for the underwater thing to reveal its original form

, It's not a monster or anything like that, but a very strange-looking board, and there are several strange cylindrical objects under the board, Weiss doesn't know this thing, but her rich alchemy knowledge tells her that this is definitely an alchemy item, and the style is somewhat similar to hers.

After completely surfacing, the woman slowly stood up from the board, and then reached out and pressed a collar around her neck, and the woman's body suddenly flashed, and after a while, there was no water stain on the woman's body, and an unusually fluffy puffy skirt was also revealed.

The woman smiled at El, then leaned slightly sideways in a very common Winster aristocratic manner, and said with a smile, "Little girl Karina, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

The smile that is just right, the gentle etiquette, and the bad attitude just now are completely different from the two people.

Al didn't return the salute or smile, but he still responded to the words of the self-proclaimed Karina: "I'm Al Lantis, this is my friend Vess, Miss Karina, please come on board and talk." ”

Weston was a little displeased, glaring at Karina's eyes, trying to force her to leave.

Karina didn't seem to see the vigilance in Weiss's eyes, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the invitation, the little girl is also trying to get to know the two young ladies!"

After saying that, Karina urged the strange board under her feet, leaned towards the side of the boat, and then jumped lightly, jumped onto the board, and then turned back and put the strange board in the water into the storage space.

"Inside, please!" Seeing that Karina had cleaned up, Al reached out and invited Karina into the cabin.

After Karina nodded slightly, she didn't suspect that she was cheating, and walked in directly, Al turned his head and ordered the boatman to continue to drive the boat down, and then he also entered the cabin, Weiss was full of displeasure, but she still followed in, she was absolutely unwilling to let Al be alone with this strange woman!

Once inside, Karina sat on one side, and Al and Vis sat on the other.

After sitting down, before Karina could speak, Al asked straight to the point, "Miss Karina, may I ask you, do you know a dark wizard named Gabrie?"

Vis was stunned for a moment, and Karina was also slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that Miss Landis invited me for this reason! ”

Weiss exclaimed, "Teacher?"

Karina said: "Yes, I am the only student of the teacher, and I learned alchemy techniques and black magic with him, presumably, Miss Rantis found out from my attack just now, right?

Aier was not hypocritical, and asked directly: "So, can you ask Miss Karina to help introduce me, I want to ask Mr. Gabrie to help."

Busy!"

Karina frowned slightly, and said with some hesitation: "This ......"

"Please rest assured, Miss Karina, we will definitely be ready for the right reward!"

"Uhh

"Dead?" asked Weiss, "but does it mean that Gabri's alchemy works have been circulating in the market for the past three years?"

Karina replied, "This ...... In fact, in the past three years, the alchemy works of those teachers circulating on the market have all been made by me in the name of the teacher!"

"Why did you do it? And no one found out?"

As a first-class alchemist, Weiss felt very strange about this problem, even if it was a master and apprentice, but the alchemy items made by two people would definitely have two different styles, which may be similar, but it is absolutely impossible to be exactly the same! No matter how small the difference is, it will be seen by those who have a heart!

Karina grinned and said, "Borrowing the teacher's name, of course, is because the teacher's name is better to sell for money! I have to support myself! Moreover, although the style of me and the teacher is not exactly the same, it is rarely noticed, because the teacher is a very strange person, and every thing he makes is very different in style, so if I really do exactly the same as the teacher, then it will really arouse suspicion!"

"What about the quality? Is your level already up to your teacher's level?"

Karina's face was pale, and Weiss's question was asking her itch: "Well, it's not that I'm boasting, my level has long surpassed the level of my teacher! So, even if someone suspects me of impostoring, so what? Shouldn't I be happy to buy goods that exceed expectations at the same price?"

Listening to this Karina say something that was natural, Weiss couldn't help but squint his eyes, and felt a little bit of comparison for the proud alchemist in front of him.
