A Bar In An Alternate World: Pick Up A Young Witch

v1 Chapter 33: repay with body

"It's over, let's go down."

Ringer took a long breath and relaxed physically and mentally.

Lanya hugged his thigh tightly, not intending to move.

"No! I won't go down! I want to stay on this tree forever!"

She pursed her lips tightly, looking serious.

"You can treat me like a tree."

"Eh? What do you mean?"

Linge jumped off the branch and landed on the body of the fallen wild boar. Lanya sat on his shoulders, clamping his neck tightly, and clasped his small hands firmly on his forehead, for fear of falling.

After leaving the swamp area, put Lanya down, and Ringe created magic with water to wash off the black mud on his body and clothes.

Celia who came out said:

"Could you wash it for me too? If you go back to the city in such a mess, you will definitely be laughed at."

At this time, Selia's body was covered with mud, like a clay figurine.

"No problem, please stand still."

"Oh! Come on."

Celia's legs were slightly spread, shoulder-width apart, and she looked ready to fight.

Linger originally wanted to remind her not to be so nervous, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say it. He raised his hand and pointed it at her body. A strong stream of water spewed out from the palm of his hand, impacting on that petite body. From top to bottom, from face to feet.

The mud dissipated, and the fair skin was revealed again, and the clay figurine turned into a youthful girl with short silver hair, long lines, plump and moist—finger muscles.

Bathed in the water, Selia suddenly bent down and took off her shoes and knee socks.

"It's troublesome here too, my feet are sticky and uncomfortable."

"OK."

The water flowed down and began to wash those delicate feet, restoring their true color as fine and white as porcelain.

Celia straightened up, wiped the water drops on her face, and said with a cheerful smile: "The magician is really easy to use, uh, I mean that magic is very convenient, I don't mean to treat you as a sprinkler. kind of tool."

She tugged on the short leather armor on her upper body again, half-jokingly said: "I really want to take it off and take a good bath."

At this time, Lan Ya walked up to Ringer, looked at Selia bathed in the magic water, her small face was tense, and suddenly said: "It's enough to wash, I want to wash too."

As he spoke, he threw himself between the two of them, blocking the water flow with his body, and the thin magic robe clung to his body in an instant.

Selia squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "I'm almost there, thank you." She walked aside, started to put on socks and shoes, and dried the clothes on her body with a little recovery.

After the three of them cleaned up, they were ready to return to the city to hand in the task.

Linge glanced back at the wild boar corpse under the tree, and asked, "Don't you need to take something from it as evidence?"

She shook her head and said, "No need."

"In this way, no one will lie about the results and get paid?"

Celia looked at Ringo again, and asked this kind of novice question with a serious face. It seems that they are really newcomers.

"There will be people from the guild to confirm the completion of the task. If the false report is found out, you will not be able to get along in the human city. If you are interested in the body of the wild boar, you can take it away. Its meat and Ya should be able to sell a lot of gold coins.

But I suggest to leave it to the villagers. This beast wantonly destroyed the farmland, and many farmers were seriously injured by it and could no longer work. And they have to pay a bounty. If they can sell this wild boar, it should make them a lot easier. "

Celia suddenly sighed.

"The entire village has only accumulated 89 gold rewards, but the mission goal is so difficult, no wonder no one accepts this commission."

Ringer had no interest in the gold coins in this world, so after hearing what Selia said, he said:

"Then let it use its body to repay the villagers it has hurt."

After thinking for a while, he said, "It's better to return the reward to them, and I will pay your share."

Celia looked at him in surprise: "Are you really planning to do this?"

"I don't think the village is rich, and the village chief's house is also very dilapidated. The 89 gold is worthless."

Celia smiled and said, "I have no objection."

"Where's my share?" Lan Ya who followed gently tugged on Ringer's cloak.

"All of them, all of them."

The three of them returned to the Adventurer's Guild, and when they handed in the task, Ringer offered to refund the reward.

The elder sister of the green-haired elf at the guild counter showed surprise, and confirmed to Linge: "Mr. Linge, are you sure you want to refund the reward?"

"Yes."

"Okay, there will be staff tomorrow to return the gold coins deposited by the villagers in the guild. I wish you a happy day."

After leaving the counter, go back to Selia and Lanya.

Selia threw a 100 gold coin in her hand, which was paid by Linge.

"Come on, let me buy you a drink. You are so generous, I can't be stingy."

Celia pointed to the wine table by the window in the hall.

Linger hadn't drunk wine in this world yet, so he became a little interested, so he sat down at the wine table. Lanya reluctantly followed and sat next to him.

The waiter came over with three glasses of sparkling wine and put three brown wooden glasses on the table. Ringer's nose fluttered and he smelled the aroma of malt.

"It smells good."

Selia raised her wine glass, took a big sip, and said in satisfaction, "This is the best malt wine here, and I'm usually reluctant to drink it."

Ringer picked up the wine glass and blew away the foam. The wine was dark brown with bubbles gushing out continuously.

He took a sip, the taste was mellow, the foam was fine and slightly bitter, overall it was not bad, a bit like the black beer of the earth.

"By the way, can you use your magic to help me freeze it?"

Selia held out her wine glass and asked.

"sure."

Linge smiled and stretched out his hand~lightnovelpub.net~ and gathered several crystal clear ice cubes in his palm, two of which were thrown into her wine glass, and two of which fell into his own wine glass.

"Thanks."

Selia took another big gulp and sighed contentedly.

"I didn't expect that wild boar to be so tenacious. It really took a lot of work. The feeling of forming a team with people seems to be pretty good."

Linge smiled and said, "Do you want to join our team? Although it was just established yesterday."

Celia's skill left a deep impression on him. If there is such a teammate, most of the tasks can be easily completed.

Celia leaned back on the chair, waved her hand and said, "But I'm used to being alone, and your vice-captain doesn't seem to welcome me."

Lan Ya, who had been unable to speak, blushed, raised her glass and took a sip, her face flushed even more.

"Hmph, this wine is no match for Ringer's wine, and it's not good at all."

"Oh?" Selia's expression changed, and she looked at Ringer with interest, "Do you know how to mix wine?"

"Hehe, I understand a little bit."

Ringer's smile was full of confidence.

"Can I have a taste?" Selia's eyes lit up, and her tone revealed curiosity.

Ringer hesitated because he was not sure whether Selia could walk into the Emerald Bar.

"Hey, how can we say that we are also comrades who have fought side by side, don't you give me some face?" Selia wrinkled her small nose.

Lan Ya dangled her calves under the table, and said happily, "Haha, not everyone can drink his wine."

Celia's heroic eyebrows twitched, and the more she did, the more she wanted to drink.

At this moment, Linge stood up and walked towards the door of the guild.

"Come with me, I'll take you somewhere."
