The next morning, Cheese returned to Roland's hotel. Roland, who was arranging the props in the carriage, saw Cheese walking back from the street, and Kelanti following him. The mage was still wearing the same clothes he had left yesterday, but judging by his expression, Cheese wasn't very happy now. In contrast, the expression on Kolanty's face is the one on her face. Although he is still grieving the death of his grandmother, the death of the old bird guarding the nest means that the chicks can finally leave the nest where they are bound. Although she grew up in the royal capital, Colante's life was largely taught by her grandmother and mother, and the young witch was actually unfamiliar with the city and its inhabitants.

"Yo, you didn't see you for a day, you got such a beautiful young lady, you kid is much better than your teacher!" Roland's eyes glanced up and down at Coranty, he didn't notice that the girl was not human, but only a young woman with blond hair in the old man's eyes.

"This is Mr. Roland, who saved me from outside the city. At the same time, he is also a friend of my teacher. Reluctantly, Cheese led Colandy to Roland's carriage, and the mage introduced the witch to the old man, whose beard had grown so long that he couldn't see his face. As for Cheese's teacher, Kelanti had heard more than once from her grandmother and mother, although many descriptions of that person were vague, but just like Cheese thought, Roland, as such an existential friend, was also a very extraordinary existence.

"Hello, Mr. Roland. My name is Colante. With her hands crossed between her abdomen, Kelanti bowed slightly to the old man, which could be said to be a very solemn salute. Originally, Roland was still wondering why Cheese would mention his teacher to this girl, but Colandy's next words made the old man instantly fall into shock, "I am now Mr. Cheese's fiancée." ”

"It turned out to be Cheese's unmarried...... What are you talking about?" Roland was standing in the carport talking to the two of them, and the old man almost fell out of the carriage in shock. The gods were above, and he had never heard Cheese say he had such a fiancée.

"Is she telling the truth?" asked the old man, his beard trembling, to the mage.

In the face of Roland's question, although the expression on Cheese's face was very exciting, in the end he nodded heavily, "I'm afraid so." ”

Having received an affirmative answer, the old man turned his face to Kolanty again and asked.

"Miss Colandy, may I take the liberty of asking, when did you meet Cheese?"

"Last night, sir. Colante replied earnestly, with a serious expression on her face, and she didn't seem to think anything was wrong.

"Well, Miss Kolanty, I beg your pardon, I'm afraid I'm going to have to borrow your fiancé for the time being. The corners of Roland's eyes twitched, and the old man pulled Cheese into the carriage's carport with a force that did not match his appearance, and lowered the curtain of the carriage.

"You kid can! Doesn't you mean that you fellows are all focused on exploring mysteries? Why did you trick a girl back in one night? This is the capital of a country, and you will be beheaded if you kidnap a nobleman!" Roland growled at Cheese in the carport. It's no wonder that the old man misunderstood, the clothes worn by Colandy cost a lot of money at first glance, and judging from the innocence on her face that did not match her age, this scene looked like an unscrupulous mage hooking up with an ignorant girl from a noble family, and then eloping with someone.

"Things are not what you think. Cheese's eyes replied blankly, and his heart was now very broken, "The relationship between me and her is really not what you think. ”

"You still know what I'm thinking, then tell me what's going on? Didn't you come to the royal capital to investigate?, how did you get an extra fiancée in one night?" asked Roland, the old man's tone was very strong, but considering that Colandy was outside the carriage and the sound insulation of the curtain was not ideal, he deliberately lowered the volume.

"Alas...... I didn't want to be like this, things changed beyond my imagination. But as for the aristocratic girl you mentioned, I can only say that her surname is Black Pearl. If anyone could kidnap her, I'm afraid I'll only be the most senior devil in the abyss. Cheese said. He did get the information he wanted through the contract, and even the witch knew more about the plague than the mage had originally expected. But the deal with the witch also caused him some unexpected trouble.

"Black Pearl?...... Do you say that there is a lady who is beloved by black cats standing outside my carriage?" the surname Black Pearl is a vague term for witches, derived from their beauty and the qualities they use to deceive the world and their adoration with ravens and black cats. Roland, as a person who has seen and heard a lot of money and knows how many years he has traveled from south to north, is naturally no stranger to this statement. And for most people, most of them even include the vast majority of spellcasters, and it is not a good thing to have an intersection with a woman with the surname Black Pearl.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure. I went through something yesterday and it turned out that I am in this relationship with her now. Cheese said.

"Turtle's fly wings!Do you know what it means to marry a witch?" scolding an insignificant expletive, Roland shouted to Cheese.

"Of course I do. And don't get so excited. This marriage contract is only temporary, and as long as I can solve the plague of the blue lion, then the marriage contract will be null and void. The mage said.

"Damn, you and your teacher are really the same, and you don't care about your life at all. Show me your hands. Roland said, gesturing to Cheese's left hand.

"We haven't had a ceremony yet, I don't have a ring on my hand. And I'm coming back to you today to hope you can officiate at our engagement ceremony. The mage showed Roland his left hand. He doesn't really wear any rings or videos on his hands, but if you look closely, you can see that Cheese has an inconspicuous black thread around the ring finger of his left hand.

"Listen to me, boy, if you still want to live, cut off this finger now. I'll go out and trick that witch away, and we'll leave the country now!" said the old man.

"It's useless, I've already signed the contract. In order to break the marriage, the plague of the country must be cleared. Cheese said with a wry smile. Of course, he also thought about breaking the contract, but now he thought that the reason why Greene would prepare such a serious contract was to prevent the mage from repenting.

“...... Alas, sometimes I really don't understand you so-called all-knowers, who can use your life and soul as a weight on the scales for the sake of such dispensable information...... It's still the lightest kind!" Roland knew that since Cheese said that he had signed the contract, it meant that with the power of the mage, there was no way to break the contract. Although the old man had not known Cheese for a few days, he still liked the young man very much. Cheese still feels a little gloomy, but he doesn't pay attention to everything in the outside world like other spellcasters. This made Roland can't help but see the shadow of his former friend in the mage's body.

"So you'd like to officiate at our engagement ceremony?" asked Cheese.

"Host, why not? I've ever officiated at a king's wedding, I've blessed dragons, but it's a grey robe and a witch's betrothal, haha, it's definitely another thing that makes me glad I've lived so long. Roland opened the curtain on the carriage as he spoke. And although the two of them didn't talk for long, Kelanty's beautiful face had already attracted many passers-by.
