Chapter 171 The Girl Who Left

h2> "Dew of the Sea? What did he give me this for? ”

Natsu didn't bother to touch the box of spices, but asked Stephanie to cover the box and put it away.

"The smell of this spice is long-lasting, and many noble ladies like to use it, probably to fight back against you for seeing through his identity."

The little Lori in black lowered her head and stuffed the box into her skirt, flew over and hugged her:

"Because the owner has always smelled good...... It's not at all like those magicians who spend all day soaking in the real yàn room. ”

"It was originally a good thing to have such a pure physique, but who knew that it would become a flaw here......"

Natsu sighed and stroked Stephanie's hair, then pulled her off of herself and placed her on the table:

"But it is my own responsibility to take into account all the characteristics of a magician, and not just to wear a robe; Next time, you might as well sprinkle some pungent potions on your body. ”

This is the limitation of the automatic mode, which cannot do one thing from a global perspective, and can only follow instructions rigidly.

"I've always had a question."

She looked at the page of the automatic mode and said:

"It's easy to understand the three no-girl girls, but the cunning businessman is a charming dancer...... Isn't that a character, right? Why is it in the personality column, and how do I feel that it is more appropriate to be assigned to the career column? ”

"I don't know the owner of this, the settings in the system are fixed, and I can't change it."

Stephanie thought for a moment and replied honestly.

"Forget it, don't study this kind of brain-wrenching thing, the matter here has come to an end, let's take stock of the harvest first."

She looked at the legs of the little Lori in black:

"You don't have to take the money and magic crystals, let's see what else there is."

"Master, this angle feels so evil."

"Hurry up, do you want to put it on the ground, I'll have to bend down to pick it up later."

"The host...... How did you get so close? Isn't it deliberate?,Isn't it good to use superpowers for fear of picking up trouble.。 ”

"Superpowers are too mentally ......"

"Whoa—"

After all, it was the master's order, and Stephanie spread her legs in shame, stood on the table and shook her skirt, and a large amount of things fell out of it.

Most of these items are all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, and there are some precious stones in them, but there are no particularly expensive items.

Xia began to pick and choose on the table, and the little Lori in black helped her carefully identify it for a long time, and finally the two put these things away in disappointment.

"What a pity, master, there is no treasure."

Having followed someone for so long, Stephanie was already somewhat immune to her actions, and soon forgot what had just happened and hugged her waist incognito.

Xia's neck, waist, and thighs, these three places are her favorite places to hug, but if she goes out, if she wants to be coquettish to her master, she has to lie on her back, otherwise it will affect her actions and cause some unnecessary trouble.

"What's the pity, it's also an income to sell those jewelry and other things when you get to the big city, and Canning City should be a good choice."

Xia also took the sword in the cabinet and handed it to the little Lori in black.

"Didn't you ask you to collect information on the mainland recently? Who is the lord of Canning City? ”

The longsword she was using was always on her back, the one she had just used to distract her enemies.

"That city lord's name is Brooke...... He seems to have a terrible nickname, but those who talk about him don't specifically mention it. ”

"Tess."

Natsu activated the psychic induction.

"Swordsman, you call me?"

Tess came over with a few pieces of clothing and seemed to be packing.

Her mind was very well-behaved, and she knew that this place was no longer suitable for staying, so she prepared to leave in advance.

"Don't take your clothes, take your most precious items with me."

Natsu put some gold coins and magic crystals in a bag and handed them to her:

"I have some things to do, you try to travel as lightly as possible, and in a moment I will let the boat take you to a safe place; The nobleman's words may not be trusted, but I have bought enough time for you to leave Dalton. ”

"But...... I don't know where to go. ”

Tess bowed her head:

"My sister suddenly lost news more than a year ago, and everyone rumored that she was dead, so those people dared to bully me......"

She raised her head suddenly, tears streaming down her face, and said loudly:

"But no matter what others say, I know she's not dead! Must not be dead! She will definitely come back to me and I can feel that she is still alive! ”

"Don't worry, listen to me."

Xia took her in his arms and gently touched her back:

"Although I don't know your sister very well, I am also a teammate who fought side by side, and I have heard about the rebellion in the royal capital, but I am sure of one thing, your sister was not in the royal capital that night, but somewhere else."

Because everyone was on that island when the rebellion happened.

She said to herself.

"Give me the shotgun."

She got the shotgun from the little Lori in black, released Tess from her arms, and handed the shotgun to her:

"This is something that a friend of mine gave me, a very nice friend...... You take it to the Northern Duchy on a cross-domain airship and find a man named El. Cantor's aristocratic maiden, who is also an acquaintance of your sister, will surely help you find your sister's whereabouts. ”

The bullets of this shotgun had long been exhausted, and after she returned to the mainland, she realized how amazing the price of magic bullets was, and ordinary people couldn't afford to use them, so she sealed them up with the revolver and never took them out at all.

"Tess, remember, don't save money. It's dangerous to get from here to the north, even I don't dare to go on the road alone, this money is enough for you to pay for the cross-domain airship, remember to buy something delicious on the way, you are too thin. ”

She spoke earnestly to the little girl, who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, and then held out a hand and put it on her forehead.

"If you believe me, close your eyes."

A glimmer of light emanated from Natsu's hands.

"Swordsman-sama...... This is? ”

After a long time, Tess opened her eyes in astonishment and looked at her hands.

In front of her eyes, a small black skull appeared, lying quietly in the palm of her hand.

"Here's how to use it, and the address of that noble lady...... Put these away and try the spell I just taught you. ”

Tess took a few steps back, putting away a note and the scary-looking skull.

"I think there's something more in my head!"

She said in amazement.

"This is an ancient spell, called the Falling Soul Puppet, before I leave, I will give you a better puppet, it and that skull are your safety along the way, you have summoning as a foundation, you should be familiar with it soon."

Natsu left a small serpentine puppet in the room, and walked into an empty room with Stephanie and began to change clothes.

This time the commission paid well, but it was also very difficult, and she had to be prepared for everything.

At night, Xia spread his wings under a sparsely populated city wall, carried Tess out of South Star City, and flew northwest along the waterway.

"Swordsman-sama......"

On the edge of a small boat, Tess stood there and opened her mouth several times, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, just hugged the package in front of her, and tears kept flowing down her face.

"Be careful on the road."

Natsu touched her head.

Then he hardened his heart and let the boatman sail, and watched the boat disappear into the night.

"Master, what should we do, do we want to take a car? It's been a long way. ”

Stephanie knew she was in a bad mood and leaned over to her and whispered.

"No, there's still time."

Natsu left the river and found a dry place to sit down:

"You go to Viscount Eton now, monitor their movements, and see if you can get any news by the way, we will wait here for two days, and then set off if there is no problem."

She stretched out a fist and slammed it to the ground:

"If he doesn't do what he promised me, I'll make him look good!"

……

"Daddy Bouz, how is business today?"

A dwarven warrior with an axe asked loudly to the old dwarf in front of the stall.

It was the center of two bustling streets, with stalls next to each other, from south to north, west to east, and there were crowds everywhere, but dwarves like him were rare.

The dwarves are the most closely related race to humans among the alien races, brewing wine, striking iron, mercenaries...... Most of the dwarven tribes have established ties to the human realm, with only a few dwarves always hostile to humans.

"Business is not bad during this time, but it certainly doesn't make as much money as you as a mercenary, Langman."

The old dwarf replied with a hammer and clanging there, without raising his head.

Then he looked at the red iron on the tongs, and dipped it into the sink next to it, and a mist of water rose from the "snort".

"Look at your disgusting smile, do you have any work to do? Instead of wandering around the forest, you've come to this kind of place where people come and go, and there are no monsters to fight you here. ”

After doing this, the old dwarf walked to the table next to him, picked up a glass of wine and poured it down, his beard was full of cloudy wine.

"Ha, it's just a small task, and I can't make much money."

The dwarven warrior named Lang Man proudly touched his beard, carried the battle axe on his shoulder, and laughed:

"But it's okay to treat you to a full bottle of Voran another day...... Daddy, just wait! ”

"Vorland wine? A bottle? The cattle have blown to Nemoan......"

Daddy Bouz shook his head and stared at the empty wine glass in his hand.

"Brave dwarves, walking through the steep mountains, crossing the vast grasslands......"

The dwarven warrior left the bazaar humming a song and walked to a secluded place, pulling out a crumpled note from his body.

After looking at it in his hand for a long time, he realized that he had taken it backwards, so he hurriedly looked left and right and turned the note upside down.

"Remember that this place is ...... east of the city"

After reading it, he tore up the note, put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, spit on the ground, turned and walked east, and just turned the corner, he bumped into a man in a brown robe.

The dwarf's body was unusually strong, and the man was immediately knocked to the ground, slamming his head against the wall next to him.

"Hey man, are you alright?"

The dwarven warrior held out his hand to him, trying to pull him up.

The man on the ground moved his body twice, got up from the ground on his own, and walked past him in silence without even patting the dust on his body.

"Hey ......"

The dwarven warrior tried to stop him, but the man passed by and showed an eye in his hat.

The eye didn't stare at him, but stared straight ahead, but the look inside scared him shivering.

"Oh my God, what kind of eyes are there...... Is that man crazy? ”

The dwarven warrior's eyes widened and he muttered.

"Hey, what is this?"

He picked up a white brooch from the ground.

"It must have been the man who dropped it just now."

The dwarven warrior hesitated, threw the brooch to the ground again, and continued to the east of the city:

The guy's eyes...... Forget it, let's put it here. ”

"Haha! I must have been the first to arrive. ”

In front of a very ordinary-looking house, the dwarven warrior laughed and pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as he walked in, two sharp swords were placed around his neck.

"Name."

Voices came from the side.

"Langman."

It didn't seem like the first time the dwarven warrior had encountered this kind of thing, and he didn't dare to move, so he replied quickly.

"It's him, let him in."

The man at the door looked at the portrait in his hand and put away his sword.

"Human beings love to do this kind of scary tricks."

The dwarven warrior touched his neck and found that a few hairs were missing from it, and he couldn't help but be a little frightened, and muttered a sentence and walked inside.

When I arrived at the place, I found that there were already three people sitting there.

A young man sitting in the southeast corner smiled at him, and the other two ignored him.

"Good afternoon, everybody."

At this time, a man dressed as a housekeeper walked out of the door next to him with a smile on his face, and said to several people in the house:

"It's almost time, it looks like it's only four people......"

"It's five."

A gloomy voice rang out in the room.

A man in a black robe appeared in the room and sat down on an empty chair.

"Ahem, well, there's only one left, and there's still five minutes left."

The man dressed as a butler looked at the watch on his wrist and said with an embarrassed expression:

"Then you can open the information at hand first, the content of this commission is on it, if you have any questions, you can ask......"

"Huh!"

Before he could finish his sentence, a strong, red-haired warrior stood up from his seat and looked at the materials in his hand in shock.

Beside him was a man dressed as an archer, who also seemed to gasp:

"Brooke?"

The man said in a shrill voice:

"You want us to go to the Castle Lord's Mansion of the Skinning Baron?" R1152
