"Is this really a mage?"

"You know, I'm just a winemaker, how do I know if he's really ...... If Mr. Benson was not mistaken, he must be a mage. ”

"Mr. Benson shouldn't be wrong...... But it's so scary that even a beggar on the street doesn't look so ugly......"

"Yes, 3 loaves of white bread, 10 coconut rings, 6 sugar gas, 12 macaroons...... Originally, he just prepared some according to the usual practice of hospitality, but he didn't expect to eat them all......! I have never seen anyone so well eaten, not even the strongest boy in the tavern, Bazel, who has eaten as much as he has. ”

"And what are all those things on him? yellow, red lumps. ”

"If I'm not mistaken...... It should be sun-dried urine, and the woman's menstrual blood. ”

"How can a mage have these things on him!"

"Maybe it's through the slums...... Maybe it's a mage from out of town, and he doesn't know where Cárdenas can't go. ”

"Poor out-of-town mage......"

"Maybe it's a trend among mages, you know, these nobles live differently than people like us, maybe it's fashionable for them to paint these things on their bodies, it's an upper-class fashion?"

"Strange high society...... You're here, and if you don't go and sit next to him, won't he think we're rude?"

"That makes sense...... Then I'm over. ”

......

With a creak, the door opened, and the man walked in.

It's a small living room, with a table and four chairs left in half of the room, but the fact that there is a living room in Cárdenas shows that the family is doing well, far from being comparable to the slums, where the kitchen, bedroom, and living room are often connected and not separated.

The walls around the living room are all wooden, peeled flat, the wood grain is fitted together, it looks very delicate, the ground is flat gray-black stone slabs, and the tables and chairs in the living room are made of birch, the wood is delicate and tough, and it is easy to color, like this set of tables and chairs in this living room, it is painted red and green, very brilliant.

These are the most popular and cost-effective room layouts in Cárdenas in recent years, for a person like Norman who fled from a small country place where he couldn't get enough to eat, under normal circumstances, he was absolutely envious, and his eyes couldn't turn, but at this moment, Norman didn't look at it now, and his mind was all attracted by the food in his hand.

"Whew"

After just three bites, Norman swallowed the small cake in his hand, and then burped with a "hiccup".

There were also two white and tender cakes on the table, Norman wanted to stretch them out and get them, but when he saw the man come out, he walked to him and sat down and looked at himself with a smile, after all, he was a little embarrassed, and the hand did not stretch out in the end, and just lifted it and turned a corner, and fell on his stomach.

His stomach was visibly bulging - could he not have eaten all the hunger he had been hungry for three days, and his stomach was big if he didn't die.

"Mr. Mage......

As he said hello, the man stole a glance at the mess on the table, and thought of the ones that had been taken away, and his heart couldn't help but tremble and hurt a little.

In order to greet this Mr. Mage and be worthy of his honorable status, he had prepared the best food in the house, and some delicate snacks that his wife had temporarily bought from old Todd at the end of the street, which were very expensive. If you do the math, this Mr. Mage has eaten at least 3 silver narls!

Merciful Lord, 3 Yinnar, this is almost the cost of a month's food for their family......

But when he thought of his daughter's future, the man still hardened his heart.

3 silver narls are nothing, as long as the daughter can become a mage......

"I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to introduce myself. My name is Colin Ducourt, can I know your name?"

"Norman,"

Norman spat out his name, looked at the middle-aged man named Colin in front of him, paused, and added, "Norman?" ”

Fortunately, Colin didn't know his details, and if it was the villagers of Ashley Village sitting opposite Norman, he would probably have jumped up at this moment: hell, when did little Norman have a surname?! In the entire Ashley Village, only Lord Barton's family has a surname, and Lord Barton's surname is Octavian.

Norman borrowed the surname of Lord Barton, after all, he is now a "Mr. Mage", as a "Mr. Mage" who seems to have a high status, how can he not have a surname?

"Mr. Norman,"

Knowing Norman's name, Colin continued: "How much do you think is the right amount of tuition?

He couldn't wait to settle the matter quickly, or let this strange mage eat it again...... According to the appearance of this mage who has not eaten for three days, the money that needs to be spent on food is distressing just thinking about it, and these are completely avoidable.

"Hiccup?......

Norman's eyes widened when he heard this number, and he was very surprised, because he was so surprised and excited that he couldn't help but burp loudly for a while.

50 silver narr?!

In their village, they could already buy a healthy full-grown farming cow, and a farming cow was the family's greatest asset.

It's great to be a mage for so much money in a month's work! No matter how hard the work of an algorithm is, Norman thinks it's worth it.

If this continues, maybe he will be able to put down roots in the city without having to go to Aunt Emma's house, and even buy his own house, and become a real city man who eats bread every day and can't eat wild vegetables!

At the thought of this, Norman couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

Colin didn't know that Norman had so many things in his head, and when he saw Norman's expression, he thought he was very dissatisfied with the price, so he hurriedly said, "How about 55, 55 silver narls?!"

But I have more trust in Norman's identity.

Although this Norman mage looked a little ugly, it was clear that he was indeed a mage, so he was not satisfied with even the huge remuneration of 50 silver narls a month.

It's gone up again?

Norman didn't expect him to burp, and Colin promised to give him an extra 5 silver narls, which made him want to burp again. However, looking at Colin's nervous appearance on the other side, these 55 silver narls should not be a small amount of money for him, and it should not be very likely to go up, and he ate so much exquisite food from the other party just now......

"Okay. ”

Norman agreed, "55 silvernars." ”

I don't know what Colin wants him to do as a "mage", but for the sake of 55 silvernars, he can do anything! Even kill...... It's not that it can't be considered.

Norman's eyes were determined.

When people are really cornered, all ethics and morality can be left behind, not to mention that Norman, who is illiterate, has little morality to speak of, and when he is in the village, he is a ruthless character who dares to fight people for a cow.
