Chapter 100: Transactions that vary from one to the next

[Infinite gaze, boundless desire]

[Some people struggle, some people run]

[Just for solicitation, just for a light kiss]

[There is a price to pay for achieving any miracle]

[We hereby respond]

Timtown is playful, full of life, energy, and joy.

However, there was silence in the square, where a huge stone stood.

It's all people.

It's a miracle to be able to be so quiet, perhaps.

Marshall quietly huddled in the crowd with Haru, clutching Haru's pad tightly, absorbing the near-real security from it, reading word by word the notches on the decorative stone pillars.

"There is a price to pay for any miracle......," Marshall repeated softly, chewing on the implications.

How is miracle defined?

Conjuring up a lot of money out of thin air? But this can be done with transfer magic......

Bringing sick people back to health? But healing magic can do the same.

Allowing yourself to lift thousands of pounds of stone? This is not impossible for a warlock.

What is a miracle......

"Just for the miracle of kissing...... Will anyone really pay the price......" Marshall muttered.

She retreated from the bottom of her heart, but she knew very well that her wishes were not so unattainable.

"Uncle, have you thought about your wishes?" Marshall shook Haru's palm, bringing back to his senses the wolf orc, who had been in a daze since last night.

"Hmm...... Not yet. There should be no wish to be realized. Haru lied.

He needed exactly this miracle!

For him...... What is a miracle......

Dead...... It's a miracle!

But it was impossible for Chun to say in front of Marshall, and he did not dare to make his wish in front of so many people.

As for the cost, he is worried that he may not be able to compensate for it.

"Okay." Marshall shrugged, not seeming to see Haru's lie, "Then when we get your clothes, we'll go to the street for a big meal, how about it?" ”

Looking at the little girl's hearty and innocent smile, Chun also grinned the corners of her mouth, revealing her pink tongue, and said, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it." ”

"Haha, you're still pretty cute, but you have a lot of thoughts, don't think about it if you can't figure it out, after all, you can't embarrass yourself too much, can you?" Marshall took two steps forward, following the steady stream of people.

Chun's paws brushed Marshall's blonde hair and said gently: "There are some things that you still don't understand." For example, I was worried about my brother's situation in the SAR. ”

"Just believe, wouldn't it be fine?" Marshall tilted his head and touched his lips with his fingers, "Magic and miracles exist, and if you are willing to believe it, it will happen." ”

"Who said that, your father?"

"Hmm...... When he was still there, he often said this to me, I was afraid of the dark, I was also afraid of death, I was afraid of what I could feel after I lost everything. He just comforted me. ”

"I'm sorry." Haru, forgetting that Marshall's father was dead, whispers an apology.

This girl is very similar to him.

"It's okay, because I believe that my father has always been there for me." Marshall cautiously looked down at the key pendant on his chest and said, "Haha, my father loves me so much, so I have to do something for my father, um." ”

"We orcs have a legend that every life has a soul, and after death, the imprint within the soul will keep it for a while."

"Hmm...... And then what? ”

"As long as you really care about a person, then part of his soul will be divided into others." Haru took two steps forward, wanting to flick his tail, but was squeezed by the crowd and couldn't move.

"Then my father must be protecting me." Marshall's smile was a little astringent, and she straightened her hair, "Even if I do so many naughty things, he will forgive me...... Do you have anyone to worry about? ”

"Hmm."

"Your brother and brother, your parents?"

"Actually, that's how we live in our tribe, and there are very few relationships that can be sustained."

"Then I wish them all peace! Eat your fill! Hey~" Marshall bent down slightly and said sincerely.

Chun's heart was as heavy as Marshall's: "I wish my two younger brothers could meet you and get to know each other." ”

"Yes, but we have to meet secretly, secretly!" Marshall smiled excitedly, "King Charlie won't let me meet people casually." ”

The last time she met the brothers...... It was because of his uncle, Charlie, that he died......

No matter how much you think about it, you can't bring someone back to life, right?

Marshall chatted with Chun all the way, and he didn't feel bored at all, but was even happier and more looking forward to it.

Being able to talk to someone is actually pretty good.

A stone statue that grants wishes...... Really.

......

"I hope I can reconcile my significant other with me! In this life! She's all mine for the rest of my life! She has to love me, and she won't change her mind! ”

A man dressed in a merchant's robe, with a beer belly, his eyes bulging, and his spitting stars quickly leaked in the sun.

This was the wish of one man before Marshall.

Marshall leaned in to see how the unremarkable, rough, brownish-gray boulder had fulfilled his wish, and what the man would have paid for it.

But just as she looked intently, Marshall found that the person who had made the wish on the other side was motionless, very frightening, motionless without the slightest life.

Uproarβ€”β€”!

A gust of wind blew and swept away the billowing dust on the ground!

But the strong wind couldn't even blow the corners of the man's clothes!

To outsiders, time in this small area has completely stood still! Marshall didn't dare to go any further, she was afraid that something would happen.

Don't touch what you shouldn't touch, don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, don't understand what you shouldn't know......

In other words, whatever perception is related to this person cannot be detected next...... Unobservable!

This shows that the party who grants the wish is also extremely cautious, even if it is a stone statue.

After two or three minutes, the man seemed to come back to life, the corners of his clothes began to fly, his chest rose and fell again, and his eyeballs began to shake with excitement.

"Haha! Hahaha! Beloved Woman...... Get...... Got it! ”

He suddenly opened his arms like crazy and shouted loudly into the sky, startling everyone around him to look at each other, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"This ...... What's wrong with him? Marshall muttered grumblingly, grabbing Haru's arm carefully, "That's weird...... I'm not going to be a madman then......"

"Haha! Hahaha! His bloated body seemed to have a pair of wings, and his feet flew away, and he ran away violently.

He must be very happy.

Sure.

Marshall took a deep breath, and she stepped forward, her steps small and restless, for fear that she would be short of pounds and pounds.

Three steps, two steps, one step......

She walked over to the statue.

You should just say what you want...... That's it, right?

The large stone in front of the meeting did not move, and Marshall swallowed Kaka and said his wish: "I hope that the wolf orc behind me can pass on a well-fitting leather coat." ”

"Well...... she didn't feel at ease, and added, "It's the most ordinary kind, you don't need to make people go to heaven and earth, you don't need to make people immortal, and you don't need to make him invincible or anything...... It's just a very ordinary kind - hmm! ”

Trembling, illusory brown-black silk threads slid wildly, flying, and flowing on the surface of this stone statue like fast-moving earthworms!

This...... This!

Marshall took half a step back, only to find himself stumbled against a void barrier!

Outside time is cut off from here!

What Marshall sees now is like a picture.

Completely freeze-frame photos!

She suppressed her fears and forced herself to focus her eyes on the surface of the stone statue in front of her.

The illusory lines twisted, condensed, swirled, stretched, from a mass of haphazard wool to strands of wool by an unknown force.

They leap rapidly and disorderly on the surface of the statue, but they cannot fly out of the statue even if it is only a star.

Eventually, the threads twitched and coalesced, condensing into a hair-raising face.

It had no eyeballs, no nostrils, just a mouth, and two writhing black holes above it.

"You...... You are ......"

Babbleβ€”β€”!!!

In an instant, a strong wind blew up from Marshall's feet, forcing her to cover her fluttering clothes.

"You have the right to change your wishes."

Long, eternal, drifting from afar, trekking from the other side of time.

That's how Marshall described the sound.

"No...... No need...... I just want to, just this wish! That's enough! Marshall plucked up his courage and gripped his right hand tightly in a fist.

"Miracles are not squandered like this, you can make wishes, and there are many ...... Wealth, money, love, life, power, etc., etc., etc., etc., ......"

"All I need is this, nothing else." Marshall repeated again.

β€œ......”

Buzzβ€”β€”!!

Marshall hurriedly covered her ears under the noise, gritted her teeth, and saw an earthy yellow ball of light fall into her hand.

Soft to the touch.

"Your request has been fulfilled, at the cost of a hair of yours."

A hair ...... The price.

Not at all matched.

Marshall looked at the soft leather coat in his hand in a daze, rubbing it carefully, feeling the touch of the fur.

It's a very fine leather coat.

"The one behind you wants a miracle more than you, please don't waste time, neither you nor me."

The one behind me? Refers to......

"Kid, are you alright?" Seeing that Marshall's feet were unstable, Chun hurriedly ran away, carefully holding up the little girl's body, his face worried.

"I ...... It's okay. Marshall quickly departed from the sudden dizziness and handed the leather coat in his hand to Spring.

"Do you have any wishes?" Marshall shrugged.

"No, let's go." As if in a hurry, Chun pushed Marshall away.

"Try it, it doesn't fit, it's a thing I bought with a hair......" Marshall was pushed away by Chun like this, and said angrily.

Chun hurriedly put on this leather coat, and said without thinking about it: "It fits, it's very comfortable, it's very ......."

"Alright...... Marshall waved his hand, stopping Chun's perfunctory behavior.

This guy obviously wanted to make a wish, but he didn't know why he didn't make a wish......

Marshall pouted angrily and snorted dissatisfiedly: "This is something I got from consuming a chance to make a wish, cut ......"

"Thank you, thank you!" Chun blinked his eyes and said with a weak heart, "Let's eat, eat!" ”

Marshall didn't pierce the lame drama of spring, and he was secretly funny in his heart.

What kind of wish does this guy want to make, and can't let himself know yet?
