Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

What is it like to pretend to be in love with a witch...

Thank you for the invitation, I just came out of the "Witch"'s house, there are too many people, I'm hiding...

Fortunately, as a modern young man who has experienced the explosion of knowledge, he has seen many routines in the relationship between men and women, supported him and Emily's entanglement for a long time, coaxed her to smile, and showed a completely forgiving attitude. She looked obsessed, and made an appointment for the next meeting, and then she was able to escape safely.

Stopping a carriage by the side of the road, Joyce, who spent a lot of energy, ignored the driver's respect, and rushed into the carriage. At this time, he had long since lost the innocent face of licking a dog before, but a face of contemplation .

Emily, regardless of her real name or alias, she is a "witch". There is no doubt about it, and the probability is no more than Sequence Six. Use your body to seduce a self who is not even an Extraordinary.

A member of the witch sect?

Thinking of the source of the "Assassin"'s extraordinary characteristics... Perhaps, I am not her first temptation target, what is her purpose for doing all this?

That pirate named Locke? No, how can a target that can be handed over to me escape the assassination of a "witch", unless Emily can't do it herself for some reason, so she has to secretly train me as a backup...

This is the most logical inference, and of course it does not rule out the possibility that "Pirate Locke" is just a cover...

I need the potion formula for the future, she is the most direct source, since I have already made a bet, I naturally don't care about continuing to increase the weight.

Well, let someone look into the details of Charlock later. If the crime is really heinous, then make him the first assassination target. This is the fate that "assassins" cannot escape, unless they don't want to continue to upgrade the sequence.

Alas, thinking about it makes me depressed... If he had a choice, he would definitely not choose the witch path, not only because of the problem of sex change, but also because this path is completely useless for memory. If you choose a generalist, the potion formulas that appeared in the original book would be a huge fortune. How could it be like this, you can’t remember any of them, and you’re even worrying about the Sequence Eight potion... etc. , I don't even have the formula for Sequence Nine, Emily didn't give it to me! she forgot?

The carriage bumped a bit, probably because of a stone, which caused Joyce to turn his mind away from the "witch" and start thinking about the current situation.

Although Bayam is a colony, as the fulcrum of the Loen Kingdom's colonial rule in the Central Sonia Sea, it has already gradually developed into the most prosperous big city in this sea area.

There are Extraordinary people from the Church of the Storm headed by "Sea King" here, and there are also military forces whose responsibilities are to destroy the rebels and maintain colonial rule, enough to make the most daring pirates shrink their tails and be human.

The gathering of many Extraordinary people naturally formed a lot of underground trading parties related to Extraordinary materials and mysticism, and the officials turned a blind eye to this.

To sum up, this place is very suitable for the survival and development of a wild rookie like Joyce who has just stepped into the extraordinary world. As long as he does not make more harmful actions, he will not be in too much danger, not to mention that there are still some monsters on his head. Bearing a title of nobility.

Of course, when it comes to mystic knowledge, every person on the island counts as one, not as rich as him.

He has decided to spend a lot of time in Bayam, at least in the low order. In addition to the above objective reasons, there are two subjective reasons:

First, the original body has lived here for nearly twenty years, and his interpersonal relationship is quite extensive. In addition, his deceased father left him rich political resources, mainly concentrated at the military level, such as his current baron status.

Second, the role of "Assassin" needs life as an embellishment, and the "Instigator" of Sequence Eight is the same. Bayam is mixed with fish and snakes, and the villains are everywhere, which can effectively alleviate his guilt after causing disasters. This is to avoid Necessary checks and balances out of control.

To be an Extraordinary means that there must be a bottom line, otherwise, there is a high probability that people will lose control in the process of constantly breaking through the line, or be tempted by evil gods.

This kind of perception is something that I never had when I read novels in my previous life.

In the original book, no matter whether it is Klein or anyone else, after drinking the potion, there will always be a promotion without any risk, but Joyce, who has just become an "Assassin", has a different understanding.

The reason why he (she) can be promoted smoothly comes from a strong heart and will, and this quality is lacking in Li Weiping, who has lived in the peaceful food empire for a long time, so much so that the potion of Sequence Nine makes him The burden is heavy.

He needs time to adapt.

"Sir, Rose Manor has arrived."

Joyce got out of the carriage and noticed the groveling coachman standing beside him. His complexion was darker, his short black hair was naturally curly, and he was smiling obsequiously, which was the native's "respect" for the colonists.

Suddenly a little uncomfortable, not because of the driver's attitude, but a kind of unaccustomed to suddenly transforming from an ordinary person into a vested interest.

He took out his wallet and took out a one-pound note and handed it to the coachman, who was flattered and said, "Sir, this is too much."

"Take it, I am happy today."

"Thank you sir, you are a generous and respectable gentleman."

The driver left happily. Joyce looked at it for a while, and realized that he didn't seem to have said not to give change. The driver is very skilled in operation!

He shook his head and smiled, then turned and walked towards the gate of the manor not far away.

Bayam's law stipulates that the indigenous carriages are not allowed to enter the private territory without permission, otherwise the owner of the territory is eligible to expel or judge them.

Therefore, the carriage only stopped at the side of the roadside sign. In front of it was a stone path, and the plants on the side of the road were even more vibrant.

Bayam in April is a livable season. The monsoon brings comfortable temperature and humidity from the sea, and everything begins to recover.

Rose Manor is located on the north side of the coastline. Joyce's father bought it for a small amount of money in the early years and used it as the family's territory.

It is said to be a family, but in fact there are only father and son.

Joyce's ancestors won the title in the battle of breaking the oath six hundred years ago. In history, there was once an earl in the family, which was very prominent. It's a pity that it can't withstand the erosion of time after all. The rate of decay of the family heirs is amazing, and the huge family quickly decays.

By the time of Joyce's father's generation, the title had long been lost, the family property was squandered, and the family members were almost wiped out.

In order to recast the glory of his ancestors, his father resolutely joined the army. More than ten years of military career made him a lieutenant colonel, and finally won the canonization of baron for his son at the cost of his life.

On the stone path leading to the manor, Joyce stopped by the side of the road, picked a small orange flower and put it on the tip of his nose, smelling a natural fresh smell.

The super vision brought by the "Assassin" potion allowed him to clearly see that people were riding towards him. They were all servants of the manor. The middle-aged man in the lead was his father's most trusted subordinate, and also the housekeeper and guard of the family. long.

Several people dismounted from their horses ten steps away from him. Their movements were uniform and their voices were loud and powerful, which made it clear that they were well-trained.

"My lord the baron."

Joyce gave a "hmm" with a smile, and said kindly to the butler standing at the front:

"Mr. Hunt, how did you get such a big fight?"

The middle-aged man has a serious face, his eyes are full of power, but the hairline is extremely unfriendly to him, he said in a calm tone:

"Master, next time you plan to spend the night outside, you can consider bringing your servants to report back."

Joyce sneered twice, thinking that going out to have a tryst with the witch by himself is of course not suitable for taking servants, but knowing that he was worried about himself, he had to say embarrassingly:

"Well... next time, definitely, next time."

Then, he pretended to look up at the sky, and abruptly changed the subject:

"Ah, I'm so hungry, hurry back and eat."

Mr. Hunter kept his responsibilities in mind, just reminded him, did not continue to ask, and turned sideways to make way:

"I've asked Sophia to prepare."

How thoughtful... Joyce suddenly felt that being a nobleman was not bad.

Relying on the memory of his original body and the changes to his body brought about by the potion, he perfectly controlled the horse under him, and really felt the feeling of galloping the horse.

This made him look forward to the next food even more.
