A strange world

Chapter 266 Section 119. Waiting

"Congratulations, there is now a third warlock in Xingyue Bay."

Ingrid said as she saw the shining light of the test magic stone. And unlike Annan who first took the test and then awakened, the boy, like Claudia, had already awakened the warlock talent.

"The third one? Who are the first two? Oh, it's okay..." Annan, who was still thinking about Leila, was not in the right state: "But neither of them looks like a warlock."

"I'm definitely inferior to you." After Ingrid said that, she walked into the room.

"Della, is Ingrid scolding me?"

"I don't know." The answer came from the shadows.

Leaving Ingrid to arrange a place for the boy and his mother, Annan ran to the beach to pick up Leila.

The small wooden boat carrying Leila and her catch had just run aground. She dragged a sea fish slightly smaller than herself onto the beach and urged Annan to open the portal quickly.

Annan called the guards patrolling the streets and asked them to help deliver the fish to the lord's house.

On the way back, the silly Leila talked about her fishing process. Annan listened to her quietly with a gentle smile, his long and narrow shadows touching each other.

Back at the Lord's Mansion, Layla picked up her trophies, and Annan cooperated to open the portal on the New Initial.

"Let Fast come to see me!" Leila raised her chin.

"Let Fast come to see us!" Annan put his hands on his hips.

"Alas..." Francois sighed and walked away.

Annan, who was still posing with Leila, suddenly saw Abby waving quietly in the corridor, leaving Leila to come closer. At this moment, Fast walked into the cabin holding his fish. Seeing the fish that were similar to each other, the eyebrows on both sides were raised one after another.

…

"That girl always wants to run out..." Abby said awkwardly, "I'm afraid I can't watch her..."

"Take me there."

Annan looked back at Leila and went to the guest room with Abby.

The girl sat at the dining table, holding a dirty copy of "Fa Breaking the Sky" and reading through it.

"Abby said you wanted out."

"I haven't seen such a town. I want to go out and have a look." Lilith put down the book and said, "The clock tower and Lord Agarwal's law——"

"Shh... don't mention that person's name." Annan suppressed "his petty thoughts". Who knew if the legendary mage was eavesdropping.

"You are wanted. I don't know if there are spies in the capital in Xingyue Bay..."

"Do you know the whereabouts of the teacher?" Lilith asked again.

"I don't know, but don't worry about Mr. Asimov. He is an epic mage. The dignitaries in the royal capital will not be stupid enough to provoke him."

But Lilith said sadly: "They didn't want to let us go... The teacher's spellcasting was affected, otherwise I should have been sent here."

Looking at the sad girl, Annan could only say: "Tomorrow, I will find a solution."

Let her have a good rest, Annan returned to the living room and saw Leila dejected, with two sea fish next to her.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"They're about the same size," Layla said, pointing to the two fish on the floor.

Annan glanced at the fish. Although he couldn't tell that the fish was caught by Leila, he still said: "It's different... Look, Fast's fish is no longer fresh. Who knows how long it took him to catch it?" , how long has it been left, and maybe the water element helped him."

Annan tried his best to discredit Fast, and when he thought he was about to be coaxed, Leila suddenly raised her eyebrows: "Do you think you can ride on my head now that you are a lord?"

"I don't."

"Don't think you can dictate things like the eldest sister. The eldest sister in this family has the final say. I have the final say, but you don't!" Leila, who was inexplicably angry, ran back to the room.

Annan suddenly felt that a mature woman like the Wine Lady was better, and even the elf mentor became gentle and intellectual.

On a new day, Annan woke up with the morning light. It was a beautiful day because he no longer had to tame the white dragon - the boy named Elder did this job for him.

Annan ran outside to the sunflower field covered in sunshine, smiling in response to the patrolling guards passing by. After they left, he quickly caught a bug that fell on a leaf, ran back to the bedroom and threw it into the spider bottle.

The little spider, which is already a big spider, comes out and drags the food that fell from the sky back to its nest. Maybe it is a little cold in the rainy season, so it always hides itself in the nest woven by the spider web.

Annan is going to ask a tailor to "tailor-fit" a sweater for Little Spider. As for dressing up spiders...this is the wizarding world. Annan even saw a dog that could speak human language sitting in a tavern drinking wine a few days ago - he offended the master spellcaster and was solidified into a wild dog.

After sleeping in, Layla woke up in the morning and went fishing. At that time, Annan finished signing today's government affairs, asked Olmedo to borrow Tina, and entrusted her to help Lilith do makeup, transforming the doll-like delicate girl into a lively freckled girl like Evelin, even her height was due to the cotton padding. The shoes are a few centimeters higher.

This time there is no need to worry about Lilith being recognized.

After Lilith went out, Annan, who had nothing to do, pulled out the magic mirror and suddenly remembered something:

"Dara?"

Dela's gray-brown figure emerged from the shadows.

"...Aren't you curious about what the most beautiful and handsome person looks like?" Annan, holding the magic mirror, explained.

"Not curious."

The warden, Della, went out to punish the prisoners.

Annan was left thinking about today's problem. It's a bit boring to ask Liliana Lore again, or in other words, Annan wants to confirm that the magic mirror really has magical abilities, or is it just a magic item of little use?

He thought of what to ask: "Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, why did the second prince die in the palace?"

Cold words came out of the broken mirror:

"Because the eldest prince was replaced by a rat man."

"...Are you telling the truth?" Annan was so surprised that he even forgot that the magic mirror could only be used once.

He urgently wanted to tell Olmedo the sensational news, but he was worried that his actions would be like seeing the clouds in the sky leaving shadows on the lake and running to find the children who told adults about a fish monster.

"Thank you, Annan." Olmedo's answer dispelled Annan's hesitation, "I think communication is the exchange of each other's knowledge."

"Like you and your father?" After speaking, Annan saw Olmedo's smile disappear, "Did I say the wrong thing again?"

"It's half right. I had very little communication with my father. To protect me, he arranged everything... and hurt many people."

Olmedo stopped mentioning this sad topic and returned to the present.

"The Magic Mirror's answer is possible, but we have no evidence."

"This is very easy to confirm..." Annan suddenly said.

"If the soldiers of the kingdom keep retreating and the rat man's progress is not blocked, it means that the magic mirror's words are at least half true..."

"The nobles of the royal capital have mingled with the ratmen."
