Chapter 22: A Potion Worth 10,000 Gold Coins

The night came as promised, and on the streets, except for the street lights, there were no pedestrians, and everything looked depressed.

Gradually, the low cry sounded intermittently, and against the backdrop of the night, it was chilling.

Kailin guarded Dolan until the other party fell asleep soundly, and then left the master bedroom.

"Looks like there are more knockers."

Kailin's hearing is very keen, and a wail represents a person's misfortune, which is an unavoidable tragedy, but for some reason, she would love to go out for a walk tonight.

As she walked out of the house, Kailin took a deep breath of the cold air outside, and she subconsciously looked at the street corner not far away, where a knocker was fulfilling the contract.

"Doya, you broom star, hurry up and open the door, don't hurt us."

With an indifferent shout, a crack opened in the door of the small shop, and Kailin could clearly see two large hands pushing a little girl out.

"Wow!"

At the sight of the knocker, Doya burst into tears, her face full of fear and helplessness.

Whew.

In the blink of an eye, an eerie atmosphere rushed to Doya, and the picture suddenly became distorted, and at this time, the knocker raised a mad and bloodless hand.

"Mom! I'm so scared. ”

Doya curled up, and suddenly, she looked up at Kaylin's side.

Kailin under the street lamp is like an angel coming out of the light for Toya at this moment, she wants to reach out and touch, but her body has long since stopped listening.

With a gentle smile on her face, Kaylin walked towards Toya, ignoring the knocker.

"Doya, it's cold on the ground, don't catch a cold."

Hearing this, Doya subconsciously held Kailin's hand and stood up with the help of the other party.

"Sister Kaylin."

Doya didn't dare to look at the knocker, she didn't know what it was, but instinctively felt that it was something horrible and unforgiving.

"Don't worry, it's just an uninvited guest."

After a reassuring sigh, Kelin turned to face the knocker.

"Man, frightening a child is punishable by hanging." Kailin spoke plain menacing, holding a magic crystal in her hand.

"Boom!"

Whew.

In an instant, an inexplicable wind blew around Kailin, and by the time everything was calm again, the knocker had long since disappeared.

"Sister Kaelin, it's gone." Doya's heart palpitated, and the scene in front of her made her feel incredible.

"Doya go back, it's okay."

"Sister Kaelin, me."

Doya turned her head to look at the small shop, her heart full of resistance.

"Don't worry, I'll tell your uncle." Kaelin reassured.

"Sister Kailin don't want it, they will only beat me and not give me food, I, I want to go home, I miss my mother." Doya hugged Kailin tightly and shook her head vigorously.

What kind of experience would make a five-year-old child resist like this, Kailin didn't know, but from the yellow and thin face of the other side, she could guess a little bit.

The most basic reason why people will behave weakly in front of others is their background.

It's like a talent that has been decided since birth and cannot be tampered with.

This was the case with Doya, who came from a small, remote village that was barren and sparsely populated.

The most important thing is that Doya's parents are not in good health, his father has disabled legs and cannot work in the fields, and his mother has insomnia, which has brought down the small family for daily necessities.

In desperation, her mother had no choice but to entrust Doya to the town to join her own uncle.

It's a pity that no one could have imagined that even the closest people would become cold and ruthless.

Doya's childhood was unfortunate and gloomy, and perhaps being taken away by the knocker was her best destination, after all, wanting to live would only be filled with endless suffering.

"Doya, you have to understand, it's night, if you don't want to go back, what if you encounter danger." Kailin patiently persuaded.

"Sister Kailin for one night, is it okay, please." Doya looked panicked, she didn't let go of her hand, and pleaded bitterly.

Kailin didn't say anything, letting Doya grasp her, and she suddenly looked in the direction she had come, where a familiar figure was standing.

"There are a lot of night owls."

Kailin's face was calm, she really didn't expect that Owen guy to appear there at this time.

"I didn't see the lights on, so I think you're all asleep, Kailin, I really didn't expect you to be outside." Owen had a smile on his face, and he was very surprised to see Kailin here.

It wasn't until Owen walked in front of him that Kailin spoke, "It's so late, what are you doing coming out?" ”

"Kelin, do you believe the hunch, I can't sleep tonight, and there seems to be a voice in my head saying to me that you will need me." Owen explained, glancing at Doya, who was hiding behind Kailin, but didn't say much.

Hearing such words, Kailin said to the other party, and said angrily: "Go back and rest early, tonight will not be too peaceful." ”

"Kailin should have said this to you, the knocker appeared." Owen became serious.

"I know." Kaelin nodded.

"Then do you know that the town of Anli is already in lockdown?" Owen asked again.

"What?" The surprise in Kailin's eyes flickered.

"Yes, in the morning the consul received more than a dozen orders, and his head was about to explode, but unfortunately in the end the incident spread in the town." Owen said with a slight regret.

"It's not surprising that paper can't hold fire." Soon, Kailin calmed down, and the town of Anli was blocked, and it didn't seem to have much to do with him.

After all, the knocker didn't dare to make trouble for himself now, and with the restraint of the magic pattern, Kailin was now very confident.

"Kailin, aren't you worried at all?" The other party's performance made Owen feel very strange, according to common sense, shouldn't he need his own sense of security at this time.

"Owen, don't you do the same, you will always come when you should come, and please don't move if you don't want to come." Kailin said with a nonchalant expression.

"Haha, Kailin, you know, the knocker doesn't really like trouble with magicians, so I'm safe, but you, I'm worried." Owen spoke his heart.

"Thanks, but I'm also safe, really, otherwise I wouldn't have gone out for a walk at night." Kailin accepted the other party's concern and explained casually.

Owen was satisfied with Kailin's gratitude, and he carefully took out a small box in the shape of a long strip from his bosom and handed it to the other party himself.

"What is this?" Kaelin looked at Owen with a strange expression.

"Potions." Owen softly spat out two words.

"Why are you giving me this?" Kaylin felt a little baffled.

Owen smiled awkwardly, not expecting that the surprise he had spent so much effort on was only exchanged for Kailin's puzzlement, which was completely out of the script.

"Kailin, you should remember what I said, even mortals, with potions, can become magicians."

Hearing this explanation, Kailin showed an annoyed look, she didn't appreciate it at all, and directly returned the potion to the other party.

"Owen and I'm going to be a magician, and if you take it for granted that I need your help to succeed, then don't meet again."

"Kaylin, I didn't mean that." Owen was in a hurry, but he didn't know how to explain it.

Kailin obviously misunderstood his intentions, and Owen couldn't say it, he didn't expect the potion to make Kailin so resistant.

"Owen, thank you, I get it, but trust me." Kailin couldn't bear it, so he could only speak again.

"Of course I believe in you, Kailin, and that's not going to change from beginning to end." Owen was a little relieved at this time, but at this time, the potion in his hand became an embarrassing thing.

At the thought of the cost to him, Owen wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the strangeness on Owen's face, Kelin asked.

"I spent 10,000 gold coins on this potion, and now I'm losing a lot." Owen smiled wryly.

"What! Ten thousand gold coins, are you crazy? Hearing this astronomical number, Kailin couldn't help but shout excitedly, and now she couldn't understand the worldview of the rich man at all.

Just the potion that is not as big as a thumb costs 10,000 gold coins, which is not a sale, but a robbery of red fruit.

"Kailin, don't get excited, this is just the lowest potion, and the high-level ones may not be able to afford it in the entire Anli Town." Owen hurriedly said.

"Alright, I'll take this potion."

Can't help but say, Kailin didn't wait for Owen to react, so he snatched the potion, for fear that the other party would regret it.

"This." Owen was directly stunned by Kailin's operation, and said that he was reserved, how could he completely change all of a sudden.

"Owen, I just don't want to live up to your kindness, that's all." Kailin explained rhetorically.

"I understand." A new smile appeared on Owen's face, and although the process was tortuous, in the end, his goal was achieved.

Kailin nodded cooperatively, but he didn't even want to say a word of thanks.

"Then I should go back too, Kailin, you should go home too." Owen looked at Kailin silently.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow." Kailin didn't hold back in the slightest, she was hoping that the other party would disappear from her eyes quickly.

"See you tomorrow."

Owen had to reluctantly turn around, it was only a dozen meters away from Kailin's home, and the distance was so short that he pale in the face of an escort.

"Sister Kailin, I've seen that big brother, who lives in a big house."

It wasn't until Owen left that Doya dared to speak out.
