Chapter 22: The Breath of Magic

The children of the nobility had their own rooms, and in general, they wanted to keep their own private space, and even the closest family members could not enter their rooms casually, but at the same time, due to their incompetence in life, personal matters such as dressing and bathing had to be done for them, so the profession of servant was born.

Most of the servants are just ordinary miscellaneous servants, if a noble family is regarded as a company, then these servants are the most basic employees, they are responsible for all the trivial affairs of the aristocratic family every day, and the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the nobles are all under their own responsibility. Of course, the employees in each company are also different, there are ordinary employees, there are senior employees, and in aristocratic families, senior employees refer to personal attendants. They don't have to do the most tiring work every day like ordinary servants, but they can stand behind the nobles, talk to them, and instruct other servants to do this and that.

And at night, in order to wake up by chance to drink hot water in time, or other requirements, the nobles' personal maids must rush to the nobleman's bed in the shortest possible time, so their bedrooms must be very close, generally speaking, their bedrooms are arranged on the opposite side of the nobles' bedroom, the nobleman's bed has a drawstring, the rope extends from the head of the bed along the ceiling to the door, and the end is tied with a bell, when the maids are needed, they only need to pull the rope, and the personal maids will hear the bell, and then quickly come from the opposite door, in order not to miss the bell, the door of the maids can not be closed。

Therefore, in the small room opposite the door, there lived Erin's personal maid.

Is that the girl named Joya on the data?

Did she find herself?

Chris pushed the door open and gently pulled it behind him, causing it to close.

He stood quietly at the door for a long time before he reached the maid's bed.

The maid's bed is not a common bed, if you look at it from its appearance, it is more like a cupboard, in fact, it is not much different from the cupboard, the wooden frame is inlaid into the wall, the bottom layer is empty, used to place shoes, the middle layer is about two feet high from the ground, just the height of a person's toes when he sits down, this layer is where the maid sleeps, the position is very small and narrow, and the upper layer is the top of the cupboard, this layer is only less than two feet high, which makes the maid want to sleep in, she must be half sideways to lie inside。 This design is said to be effective in preventing the maids from cheating on their own cots, which simply cannot accommodate two people on top of each other.

And by the side of this cupboard there was a wooden door that could be closed, but only on one side—also so that the maids could hear the bell of their master while they were asleep.

In front of Chris, the maid named Joya was sleeping soundly with her face facing outward, leaning on the side of the bed with one hand hanging from the outside, and the quilt was neatly covered.

Although she didn't open her eyes, she could tell that she was indeed about the same age as Erin.

Chris reached out and touched her palm—

No sweat!

She was indeed asleep, presumably the previous sound was brought out by her when she turned over in her sleep.

This woman is also a suspicious object.

To be precise, the people close to Erin are suspicious.

Chris pondered for a moment, and with a faint flash of light in his palm, a lilac spar appeared.

The succubus's magic crystal.

Upon leaving the Elves, Dovien gave it to Chris.

Perhaps, now is the time to use it.

Chris stretched out his mental power, enveloping Gioya and himself, in order to prevent the other person from being awakened by other voices during the hypnosis process.

Then, Chris reached out and slowly covered Joya's forehead.

Joya's forehead was cold, and Chris kept an eye on her eyelashes—which twitched slightly when anyone else touched them.

There are no anomalies.

She was indeed asleep.

Chris then gently pressed the succubus's crystal against Joya's forehead.

His body shuddered suddenly, and he looked outside-

There's a smell of magic!

It's not too far from here.

Chris withdrew his hand, put the succubus's crystal into the spatial ring, and gently opened the door, and his figure disappeared with only a slight flash.

In front of Erin's door, Chris checked again to make sure that Erin was still asleep before following the same path to the roof.

He closed his eyes, and his spiritual power instantly spread rapidly into the distance.

In the darkness of the night, Kieb was eerily quiet.

Chris opened his eyes, his body slowly rising upwards, and then swept forward quickly, silently, like a night owl in the night sky that had spotted its target.

Slum.

It used to be a noble residential area, and even a place that people aspired to. However, after the former wealthy households moved to the new and better areas of Kibu Town, the situation deteriorated. Gradually, the house was rented to low-income people after subdivision, and the condition of the original house became worse and worse.

The houses here are still in their basic frames, but the facades and roofs are already dilapidated and dirty, and behind this area is a hill of colorful garbage dumps, so that the air in this area also has a sour smell, and in the outer area of many houses, there are many tattered rags propped up with wooden sticks, and there is often a family living underneath, with a dirty rag on the damp ground, and some unwashed dishes and a black pot in the corner of the house. These families who are not beggars, but who resemble beggars, also occupy a large part of the area.

Chris's eyes looked to the corners of the area.

That's where the magic came from.

Chris flew towards it.

This is the most marginal part of the slum, far from the garbage dump, but it has become the most luxurious part of the slum, and the houses are neat, although the walls are peeling, but the main body of the house is still quite intact.

Chris stared coldly at a house, did not immediately land on the ground, and waited in the sky for a long time.

No one came out, and there seemed to be no movement.

Everything in the room was still, and Chris couldn't be sure if the people inside were asleep or still in silence, in order to wait until he went down.

Chris smiled slowly, unlike usual, the corners of his lips were slightly curled to the sides, his white teeth flashing in the moonlight, and his eyes were definitely not smiling. (To be continued.) )
