Of course, Sherman's decision does not mean that he will become "her" immediately, Angel only has the potion recipe of "witch" at hand, and he has to figure out the rest of the materials himself.

From Cole Granger's memory, Angel learned that the Witch Cult usually provided potion recipes and master materials for Sequences 9 through 7 directly, and that the auxiliary materials were used as not too difficult "tests" for the members of the Sect to solve on their own.

But the premise of this "welfare" is that the members of the sect have to complete various tasks as a downline, including but not limited to assassination, provocation, stealing secrets and other tasks, so to speak, using their own contributions to earn potions.

Angel and Sherman's relationship is different, they are more than a teacher and a student, and Sherman retains most of his freedom, so he has to figure out the potions himself.

Fortunately, after he became the leader of the gang, regardless of whether he had the subjective idea of making money or not, the savings in his pocket also increased significantly, and according to the calculation that the potion materials in Sequence 7 cost 1000-1500 pounds, he could almost match two copies.

And now that the Witch Cult has almost been driven out of the city, the potion materials for Sequence 7 should not be monopolized by it, and it is not difficult to acquire.

“…… The whole blood of the black abyss demon fish, the egg of the agate peacock...... Okay, I've got it all in mind, Miss Irene. ”

With the potion recipe written on the sticky note in his mind, Sherman crumpled the paper into a small ball and swallowed it into his mouth, completely destroying the corpse.

Angel raised his eyebrows at this decisive action, and he couldn't believe that the person in front of him was the big boy who was still hesitating to be promoted just now.

It seems that the family he saved in the Great Smog was very important to him...... Angel glanced at the window on the second floor of Sherman's rear apartment, and saw that the two peeping heads had disappeared at some point.

"East Byron Veterans Club...... It turned out that the meeting place was next to it, and it seems that the two officers were not 'suspicious' as you say. ”

But after taking the "Assassin" potion and becoming an extraordinary, Sherman has his own strength, and in the revenge against the people who bullied him in the past, and in the experience of hoeing the strong and helping the weak with Hugh, he has gained a different self-confidence than before, and even has a new belief in the process of summarizing his own rules of play.

She thinks that Sherman's affection for Freya and Daisy is not the kind between men and women, but rather a little similar to the lack of family affection when she was young, and the empathy of her peers in adulthood, and she treats them as sisters.

Retracting his gaze, Angel said to the butler beside him.

If it weren't for this, he would have been approached by the "night watchman" who had been stationed in the Eastern District and was gradually restoring normal order here...... Angel looked at Sherman's not delicate, but somewhat feminine face, and sighed secretly.

But after getting along for a long time, this kind of relationship that is not based on blood may deteriorate...... So it's normal for Sherman to hesitate.

In order to avoid unwanted attention from his appearance, Angel chartered a private room on the second floor, the window facing the street, and could see a building on the opposite side that was different from the gray and cold style of the Fifth Age Rune, but a bit like an old building from the late Quaternary period.

The location is in the Hillston district, not far from her home, in a café on a busy street.

As a former "instigator" who can see people's hearts, Angel can guess the tangle in Sherman's heart.

After explaining to Sherman that he should continue to pay attention to whether there are still large-scale human disappearances in the Eastern Side, and to be careful of the investigation and retaliation of the Aurora Society, Angel leaves the place.

The reason for his original desire to become a woman is probably his more neutral appearance, as well as the inferiority complex and insecurity caused by being in the poor East Side for a long time, and his yearning and envy for beautiful women.

She didn't go straight into the mirror world, but walked down the alley into the street, much deserted before the Great Smog, but slowly walking down the street that was quickly recovering from the bustle, feeling the calm maintained by Sherman, Hugh, the Church of the Night Goddess and so many others.

"It's just a cover-up, the active and veteran officers of different factions in the club are mixed together, you go in this morning, and everyone in Beckland will know in the afternoon."

……

I hope that after you become a "witch", you can still stick to your original beliefs and get along well with those sisters......

In the haze, he saved Freya and Daisy's family through his own strength, and increased this self-confidence, Angel also confirmed this in the process of secretly investigating the "Black Claw Gang", this gang mixed in the East Side has hundreds of people, but there has been no vicious incident, under the control of Sherman, the "instigator", it has become a force to maintain a certain degree of law and order and stability in these neighborhoods.

After the Great Smog, she thought she would never see this kind of scene in the East End again.

Rybak replied with a slight bow.

Wardroy was so efficient that Angel met with two veteran officers he had contacted the next day.

The four-storey building is lined with columns, with windows and balconies between them forming a neat lattice that Angel is pleasing to the eye.

It means that these officers are trying to win over outsiders, as long as they don't put them directly on the table, and no one cares about them at all, then it seems that I don't need to hide it too much...... Angel understood what the other party meant, and quietly waited for the guest to arrive.

In addition to housekeeping Sickback, she brought a maid and a manservant, and the coachman and escort were waiting on the first floor, not to show off her wealth, but to show caution as a single and wealthy woman.

If she goes to the appointment alone, it will make the other party have some unorthodox ideas.

Not long after, as there was a knock on the door of the box, Angel welcomed two burly men with steady steps, one in his nearly fifty years, with gray temples and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes that almost reached his ears, and the other about thirty years old, wearing a military uniform without rank.

Ribback obviously knew the old man, and went straight up to talk, while the younger one passed the two of them and entered the room, and his eyes fell on Angel in an instant, and he didn't move.

"Hehe, this must be Miss Christine Theresa, your name has become a hot topic among the young people of Beckland lately."

It wasn't until Rickback finished talking to the old man behind him that he reacted, laughed self-deprecatingly for his long stupe, and said.

But the honorifics he accidentally used still exposed his nervousness.

"You're Mr. Stewart, I thought it was a retired officer who came this time, but I didn't expect to meet Mr. Captain who made a contribution to Rune, oh, it should be a major now?"

Listening to Ribback mention this familiar name, Angel took a little effort to remember that when he first met Lola, he was one of the protagonists of the "love horoscope" that the other party asked for divination, and he was an active duty officer who had made great achievements in the war in the Southern Continent and was about to be promoted to major.

Although the officer's face was angular and his skin was a little darker than that of ordinary Rune, although his face was tense, the joy in the corners of his eyes could not be hidden: "It's already a major, Miss Teresa." ”

Just because a beautiful woman compliments two sentences, did you give up the purpose of deliberately not wearing a military rank to prevent exposure...... Angel chuckled secretly, saw Stuart sit down on the couch, and turned his gaze to another old man.

"This is Mr. Sandel, who was in the same company as me. After his discharge from the army due to injury, he worked to improve the welfare of veterans, and he initiated the famous monthly open house of the East Byron Veterans Club. ”

The monthly open day is an event held on the 12th of every month, when all the club's facilities are open to veterans free of charge, including a delicious meal as usual, a free medical examination by the resident doctor, and job opportunities for the unemployed who cannot find a job after leaving the army.

Although these benefits are not much, they are of great help to the soldiers to connect with each other and help those in need, and other clubs have followed suit, and it has almost become a fixed holiday that is about to be written into law.

"Rune will definitely thank you for your contribution."

Angel complimented.

Compared with the young Stuart, Sandel was obviously much more stable, and his surprise when he saw Angel only flashed in his eyes, and he was not happy for some compliments, so he slowly sat next to Stuart, took the black tea poured by the servant on the side, and said indifferently:

"What I have done is nothing compared to those who remain forever in East Bailang."

"The situation over there is much better now than it was 25 years ago, and of course, the Intis and Fersaks are still fighting with us, and they have even joined forces to cause the kingdom to suffer its first war defeat in recent years."

Stewart added, his voice loud and his jaw erected involuntarily.

Like a peacock with the screen open...... Angel commented, took over the conversation without being salty, talked about the situation in the country that he had made up for his abusion, and won the exaggerated praise of the other party without concealment.

After all, in Beckland, most of the ladies are focused on the upcoming social season, with bespoke jewelry, clothing, and recent fashions and plays, and there are not many who can talk to these military men.

After commenting on Rune's defeat on the east coast of Byron and Ferssac, the trio finally got to the point under Sundel's guidance.

"Miss Teresa, I heard that you have lived in Trier for several years, and have business dealings with some overseas merchants?"

The old man asked in a low voice, his eyes locked on Angel's face, which was not admiration, but temptation.

Seeing this, Ribak asked the servant who was standing next to him to leave, and he locked the door himself as he exited.

When there were only three people left in the room, Angel replied with a smile:

"Yes, I stayed there for four years, and at first, I wanted to try to invest in local restaurants and cafes, but I soon found that the benefits were not even better than keeping my money in the bank......"

Angel recounts the experience she had devised for a long time, and her soft tone and secretly exuding witch charm quickly fascinated the two listeners, until she sighed and stopped talking about her compulsion to join the ranks of smugglers and make a lot of money on the edge of breaking the law.

"So, you're going to use my connections to contact those merchants and sell some sensitive goods?"

She asked.

The soothing atmosphere had worked, and while Sandel was still hesitating, Stewart had already taken the opportunity to answer:

"That's right, that's exactly what we do.

"A batch of obsolete guns, a small amount of special equipment, I wonder if those friends are interested?"
