Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times
Chapter 12: Way
Afterwards, Rotgar quietly ran out of lunch. Because his body was still a little uncomfortable, he didn't finish eating this time. After Anna cleaned up and left, he looked down from the glass window until she walked out of his sight.
Now he was looking forward to Anna's attack on the mage, then he could move the boat along the water to change his body, because this body had no natural element affinity and was so weak that it was disgusting, and the body of the mage barely survived.
Anna walked tremblingly when she left. She always felt that the demon had been staring at her, and the malicious gaze was about to poke a hole in her.
However, after this "sickness" incident, her fear of the demon dropped a little.
After demons possess ordinary humans, they will still get sick! And he seems to have nothing to do with this disease! Oh my god, this is too weak! It can be seen that the demon is strictly bound by the rules, and as long as she does not meet a certain rule, he can't do anything to her.
Of course, a demon who can possess her body is better than an ordinary person like her without the power of a chicken. She can not be so afraid of him, but can not despise him, or she will not know how she died.
Several times his killing intent was so strong. She thought that he might have the ability to bypass the rules, but perhaps the cost was relatively high. As long as he felt that there was hope to harvest her soul within the rules, he would not easily violate the rules.
So she must master a certain degree, and while explicitly rejecting his marriage proposal, she must also give him some hope to prevent him from throwing the table.
Thinking about it this way, Anna feels like a scumbag who treats people as a spare tire.
But since the demon is not a human, then it's fine.
Abigail and the three care about Parrish's body very much. During the afternoon break, they ran back again, wanting to find out more from Anna.
Anna told them that Master Parrish was okay, and she even mentioned that she had met the mage, and smoothly shifted the topic to mage-related.
"That distinguished lord looks very prestigious, don't know if we have a chance to become a mage?" Anna deliberately said with emotion.
Although the three of them wanted to please Anna, they couldn't help laughing when they heard her ignorant words.
Fiona smiled and looked at Anna and said: "We are just a mere civilian, how can we become a noble mage?"
"Anna, don't you want to be a nobleman? But if you want to become a mage, and thus become a nobleman, you might as well want to marry a nobleman..." Abigail's tone was a little bit sharp, but she suddenly realized something , Hurriedly added, "Of course, you have a lover, and you certainly don't want to marry a nobleman."
She didn't want Anna thinking about marrying a nobleman, otherwise Master Parrish would definitely be the first choice!
"Yes, I am loyal to my lover." Anna casually expressed her infatuation, and continued the topic, "Have you never thought about becoming a noble noble? If people don't have dreams, they have something like Xianyu. What's the difference? I want to become a nobleman with my love, so I want to know if there is a way."
Abigail said that by becoming a mage can become a nobleman, Anna was very moved. She wants to have power and status!
Hearing Anna's words, the three looked at each other and stopped laughing at the same time.
Become a nobleman?
Common people who don't want to be born a noble? But they have no noble blood, no natural elemental affinity given by the goddess, and they are not even men who can be appreciated by big people to make contributions, and there is no way to become nobles.
Becoming a noble lover is their best home in this life.
After a long silence, Kelly said thoughtfully: "Although it is very rare, it seems that civilians also become wizards. We don't have one in Blue Rock City. I heard that there is one in Turquoise City. And, Anna, you want to be a respected person. In addition to a mage, you can also become a pastor."
"Priest? Is Father Louis like that?" Anna moved in her heart and asked quickly.
There are some very scattered vocabulary in the original memory, which cannot be combined into systematic knowledge. Vatican, pope, bishop, priest, priest... She has these words in her mind, but she doesn't know what they refer to.
"If you are the body of the light most favored by the goddess, you can enter the church as an apprentice and then become a pastor. Father Louis is also a pastor, and our Blue Rock church is presided over by him." Kelly said, because he was in the earl's house. The maid who has been working for several years, she knows a lot of things that common people would never know.
Abigail, who originally mocked Anna's thoughts, went on to say: "If you are a natural elemental affinity, then you can go to the Mage Association to study. After becoming a one-star mage, you can become a baron."
Fiona curled her lips. Anna's remarks about becoming a noble evoked unpleasantness in her heart. She said grimly, "But do you have five gold coins?"
Abigail and Kelly stopped talking when they heard Fiona's words.
"Five gold coins?" Anna wondered. Her current salary is ten silver coins a month. Even if she can save all of it, it will take more than four years to save enough.
The three Abigail's salaries are slightly higher than hers, and it will take nearly four years to save the money.
Fiona sneered: "If you want to know if you are the body of the holy light or the affinity of the natural elements, you have to go to the church or the wizard's association to test. Each test requires five gold coins."
She seemed to be a little happy to be able to defeat Anna's unrealistic dreams, and she seemed to be upset and resentful for this fact, and her emotions were a bit complicated.
Anna tightened her lips. If so, she wouldn't think about it for years.
Speaking of which, there was that demon watching him, and she didn't know if she could still live for several years. She didn't know when the demon would lose patience. She desperately wanted to become a mage and gain the power to contend with the devil.
"Is there no other way besides paying five gold coins for testing?" Anna asked without giving up, "Maybe I can learn it by myself?"
"Are you literate?" Fiona raised her chin, her expression sarcastically, "Even if you are literate, where can you find precious books? I heard that a book of that kind costs more than ten gold coins!"
Although Anna is a college student in her own world, she is indeed illiterate here.
The literacy rate in this world is very low, and even a small number of nobles are illiterate, let alone ordinary people. And English is not used here, Anna still relies on her original memory to talk to people without obstacles.
Therefore, even if a magic book is placed in front of her, she can only watch in a hurry.
Seeing Anna’s depressed expression, Kaili quickly pulled Rafiona, and said to Anna, “Actually, it’s not without a chance! The goddess loves the world, and every five years, there will be clergy to choose the Holy Light Body, the most pious People can get the opportunity to be tested!"
"What kind of talent is considered the most pious?" Anna asked.
Kelly was taken aback, and said uncertainly: "The goddess will send down the oracle."
Go to his goddess oracle!
Anna looked at the sky, it was very bright, and there was no sign of punishment.
Even her act of scolding the goddess is not punished. It can be seen that the goddess either does not exist, or exists but is not so versatile, or just doesn't care about such trivial things. The selection of the Holy Light Body every five years is obviously just a trivial matter.
In other words, the standard is probably set by the clergy, and she, an atheist, in this world with magic, may be picked out by some strange spell at the beginning.
Anna asked less hopefully, "When will the clergy come next time?"
Kelly said: "The priest came last year, and we have to wait for four years."
Anna sighed in her heart.
In four years, she might as well save five gold coins.
But before that, the demon might have killed her, and she wouldn't be willing to wait so long for her. The devil's temper looked bad, and she suspected that he could not wait for three months.
"If you have confidence in yourself, you can borrow money from others to go to the church for a test." Fiona looked at Anna and suddenly said, "Once it is determined that you are the Holy Light Body, the church will return five gold coins to you. Of course. , If it turns out that you are not, then these five gold coins are gone."
Anna looked at Fiona and smiled: "Thank you, I will consider it."
It seems that the five gold coins of the church are to stop the civilians. If the test is free, the civilians are afraid that all of them want to test. The church will be more lively than the vegetable market.
As for the five gold coins of the Mage Association, there is no need to return them. The magic book needs ten gold coins at random. It can be seen that this is only affordable for the rich and nobles. If you can't even pay the five gold coins for the test, what should I do if I learn the gold coins needed for advanced learning later? When there is no money, there is no need to test at the beginning.
For the impoverished Anna, all the way to become a mage or priest was blocked.
And this is exactly the desperate status quo faced by all civilians in this world.
Anna looked at Abigail and the three of them, none of them seemed to be in a good mood.
The gap between the rich and the poor has solidified classes.
They may not understand these words, but they are in it and desperate for it.
"Forget it, don't talk about those." Anna changed the subject with a smile, "Master Parrish is sick, don't you want to visit the doctor?"
Hearing Parrish's name, the three people's eyes lightened and their spirits instantly recovered.
Fiona said dissatisfiedly: "You know Master Parrish is very affectionate for you, so you don't even look at us."
Speaking of this, Abigail and Kelly also agreed angrily: "Yes, yes!"
Anna thought to herself, if he really looked at you, you would be miserable.
She said: "Master Parrish always dines on the balcony. You can see him downstairs."
When the three heard this, their eyes lit up, and they had already figured out how they would go under his nose to attract his attention during the next meal time for Master Parrish.
The housekeeper fined them money because they fell in front of him, but he didn't say he fell when he couldn't play by himself!
The work of Abigail's three is mainly to take care of the small garden. They are usually not too busy, so they always come to Anna in their free time. Later, when Anna was told to return home a little later today, the three of them happened to be there.
Anna originally worked until seven in the evening, but because Wodor came and asked Anna to take the dinner, she could only work a little overtime.
After learning that Anna was going to deliver meals to Master Parrish in the evening, the three of Abigail passed by first. Their work has been completed and they don't need to go home. Even if they are asked why they are still in the small garden at this time, it can be said that some of the work has not been completed.
Looking out from the small building where Master Parrish lives, one can clearly see the scene in the small garden.
The three of them didn't dare to make too much noise. In bright places, they were playing quietly like butterflies wearing flowers. They knew that Anna was about to come to deliver the meal. At this time, the affectionate Master Parrish would definitely look over from the balcony and see the three of them in his eyes.
So, Abigail accidentally fell on Kelly for a while, Fiona accidentally fell on Kelly, and another moment Kelly accidentally fell to the ground...
In the small building at this time, Rotgar was indeed looking outside. After discovering that the maids were the three who had bullied Anna, he glanced a little more.
In the past two days, Anna had nothing unusual in front of him, and the oppression of Anna by the three maids did not seem to happen. He knew that the human woman must have been too cunning and had resolved the difficulties.
The outside voice was really noisy, Rotgar suddenly got up and went downstairs, and told Wodor not to follow him.
When the Abigail three saw Master Parrish walking under the moonlight, they were almost trembling with excitement. Has their plan really worked?
So, who will be the lucky one?
"How did Anna convince you?" Rothgar asked coldly.
The three of them couldn't see the demon under Parrish's skin, but they could feel the coldness from the young master they admired, so that they shivered and hurriedly knelt down.
They vaguely felt that Master Parrish seemed to be different, which was particularly frightening, but they didn't really think about it.
"Abigail, you said." Rotgar remembered Abigail's name and asked her directly.
Abigail, who was called by his name, said tremblingly: "Master Parrish, I was wrong!"
Rothgar colded his face and said impatiently: "I ask you, how did Anna convince you to let her go?"
Abigail hurriedly defended herself: "Since that day, we have become good friends with Anna! We didn't bully her anymore!"
Rothgar was not surprised by what Abigail said. In his opinion, it is very simple to deceive a few brainless human women like Anna's so smart human women.
He just remembered that the three Abigail botched performances in front of him in turn happened on that day, after they became friends.
He didn't ask if their stupid behavior was taught by Anna. He believed Anna would not let them realize even if he taught it.
So why did that woman do that?
Rothgar stood quietly, he didn't speak, and the three Abigail didn't dare to move around, and didn't even dare to say a word.
The night wind was blowing slowly, and Rotgar saw that the woman he had just thought about was slowly approaching in the night.
On the other side, Ulysses Russell was also walking along.
"Abigail, the three of you are going to stop Anna and teach her." Rothgar said.
The three were shocked, but listened to Rothgar continuing to say: "If you don't do it well, you will leave the earl's mansion tonight."
There was a buzzing in the heads of the three of them, and they couldn't take care of anything to please, or friendship, or the young master, and they got up with their hands and feet and walked quickly towards Anna.
Rothgar slowly walked aside two steps, hiding in the shadows.
He didn't want this body anymore, so he just pushed the boat along the water, creating an opportunity for the woman and the mage.
I hope that woman won't let him down. If you have greater ambitions, you should have more radical means, but don't take it easy like you do with Parrish.
He waited to receive the body of the mage, and then sent her a long nightmare that could not be awakened.
