CHAPTER XV. Lilia 3

Lilia angrily approached the help desk, eager to kick the lazy registrar in the ass, but was stopped by a handsome man who walked out of the office area. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "You came here to find work?" the man asked. Lilia squinted at him, the burgundy motif gown embroidered with bright gold patterns and the swallowtail slits that reached the calves. Under the man's slightly shiny short flaxen-colored wavy hair, the only exposed skin was extraordinarily pale, and it seemed that all the blood vessels had frozen with the onset of winter, and there was no trace of redness.

"Strictly speaking, finding a job is only part of the purpose. Lilia replied with a straight face.

The man bent suddenly, saluted like a nobleman, and immediately explained in a stiff manner mimicking the tone of conversation between the lords, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of interrupting, ma'am. My name is Adrian Bradman, you can just call me Eddard. If you're looking for a quick buck, I happen to have an easy and well-paying job that I'm looking for. ”

Lilia was silent, her mind spinning, calculating the remaining money and what she would spend for the next period of time. When she arrived at Winterport with her teacher, the "astronomical amount" earned from the Grand Arena of the Imperial Capital had been squandered because of the good food and accommodation along the way, and they wanted to stay in Winterport for a few days before leaving for Lion Harbor, and make a good fortune in the arena here, but they didn't want to encounter a coup d'Γ©tat in Winterhaven, and they were trapped in the city for nearly a month, almost spending all their savings, not to mention, and worrying about flying disasters all day long. Fortunately, the new lord of Winterhaven organized a great migration that made Lilia scream and scold, and sent the master and apprentice to Lion Harbor for free. During the few days she slept on the ship, Lilia often had sweet dreams, in which she defeated the first-class masters of the Lion Harbor Arena, earned more money than she could spend for the rest of her life, and returned to the mountains with her teacher to build a small estate in the mountains and forests, and live a self-sufficient life. Perhaps, she will have the opportunity to see Miloka again, and even when she is old enough to talk about marriage, she may be able to become Miloca's bride. But reality is always cruel, and the declining arena of Lion Harbor slaps Lilia hard and wakes her up from her sweet dreams.

"Ma'am?" Adrian asked, tilting his head and whispering in confusion.

Lilia stared at Adrian as if she had made up her mind, raised three fingers and said, "I don't do the work of killing people and setting fires, I don't do the work of oppressing the people, and I don't do the work of betraying hue." ”

Adrian nodded happily, and then, as if aware of something, immediately resumed his official tone and said, "Then, allow me to invite you to afternoon tea and talk about our work." ”

"No," Lilia sneered and waved her hand, "I think it's nice to have an empty seat over there, no one bothers anyway." ”
