Water and Fire Twins Magician

The carriage was driving on the streets of Lionheart City. The houses on both sides of the street were scattered and orderly, shops were lined up, signs were hung high, and people were bustling about, making it very lively.

There was an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going on the street, some carrying baskets in a hurry, some strolling leisurely on the street, and some stopping in front of roadside stalls to choose goods. They were wearing all kinds of clothes, some gorgeous silks, some simple cloths, but they all looked energetic and full of vitality.

On one side of the street, a group of children were chasing and playing, with laughter coming one after another. The food stalls on the street wafted with aromas that made people salivate. Not far away, there were some artists performing acrobatics, attracting crowds of onlookers and cheers. The whole city was filled with a strong atmosphere of life.

This kind of medieval European city life was the first time for Jacques to see it. Everything seemed so new, and he watched it with great interest in the carriage. Not to mention Bella, who ran around in the carriage, looking left and right. If he hadn't been stopped by Jacques, he would have jumped out of the carriage and made a scene.

Soon, the carriage arrived in front of a magic pharmacy.

The shop window displays various holy waters from all over the country. The holy waters are packed in colorful glass bottles, which are very beautiful. The bottles are labeled with the name, origin and efficacy of the holy waters.

The owner of the shop, who had a mustache and was called Bert, ran to Paul and bowed. Paul whispered something to him, and Bert seemed to have suddenly realized something, and then he also bowed to Jacques, obviously knowing his identity.

"Sir Jacques, if you want to know about the situation of Holy Water Village and Flower Village, you can come to this store at any time and find the owner. If you have any instructions for the two villages, you can also convey them through him." Paul patted Bert on the shoulder and continued, "His name is Bert, and he is my confidant. If you need anything in Lionheart City, you can ask him to help you. You can also use the potions in this store at will. If you need money, just take it from the store. Hehe, Sir Jacques should know what money is, right?"

Jacques knew that Paul's words were not meant to mock him. In fact, Jacques had been penniless since his rebirth. He was a young master in Marsala, so why would he need money? After arriving in Saxon, he camped and hunted all the way. He enjoyed Paul's hospitality in the Holy Water Village and the Flower Village. After saving the attacked village, he also ate the food provided by the villagers and never spent any money.

So he said, "Of course I know. I'll just borrow the income from selling holy water last month. I'll find a way to make money, and I'll return it as soon as I've saved enough." He just checked the account book and found that the store was doing good business, especially the products of Holy Water Village, which brought in a considerable amount of income every month.

"Please feel free to use it, sir. It's your money," Bert said.

"That won't work. The accounts must be clear and the income and expenditure must be recorded truthfully."

"Just let him do what he says and do what he says," Paul said.

Only after Paul said this did Bert nod.

"belch!"

Bella was sitting on the ground, rubbing her round belly, her whole body was filled with holy light, and she burped. She had been drinking holy water from the store without hesitation, bottle after bottle, and only stopped now.

"It tastes really good~" Bella said.

"You must not know what money is, kid." Paul said unhappily, "It's fine if you drink for free here, but if you do the same thing in other restaurants..."

"Money? Um...ah! I remember. It's just that you have to pay for eating other people's food. Of course I know that! Then should I go rob and get some money? It seems a bit troublesome. How about just kill the boss and the whole store will belong to us!" Bella stared at Bert with a fierce look in her eyes.

"Put it on my account..." Jacques said, holding his forehead. This Bella definitely needs a profound re-education.

"Did you hear that? My boss has admitted it. Since it's a reward from the boss, I, as a younger brother, should accept it happily, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the boss! Don't talk to me about money in the future. Little mustache, give me some more rare goods!"

"..."

After arranging the work in the store, Paul took Jacques to a carriage and took him to a quiet hotel in the city. After Jacques settled down, Paul said goodbye.

"I have been away for more than a month, and there are many things in the church that need my attention. Besides, I need to take care of the matter of the half robe myself. When the time is right, I will come back to you and Gandalf to deal with it together."

Jacques and Gandalf were both a little surprised, as they thought Paul would wait until Jacques had completed his schooling before leaving.

"With Master Jacques's ability, it doesn't matter which college he attends." Paul said with a smile, "Master, you can get familiar with the city life and make more friends. Bert will tell me about your recent situation, and we will meet again soon."

Before parting, Paul gave a special reminder: "I still want to advise you, Lord. In Lionheart City, many forces gather together, and many experts gather to check and balance each other, which forms a delicate relationship of mutual checks and balances. No one dares to say that he can walk sideways in Lionheart City. Anyone who can gain a foothold in Lionheart City is not an ordinary person. When you meet strangers or go to unfamiliar places, remember to keep a low profile. Those who look easy to bully may have some big shots behind them. Some of them are even beyond my reach."

Jacques naturally knew what he meant. He turned his head to look at Bella who was already asleep, then looked back at Paul, and both of them couldn't help but sigh.
