Day of 11 Magic

  Dehumei is not big, yesterday afternoon's incident at Xilin Wine House spread quickly throughout the city. It was soon known that the new boss of the wine house was a generous and kind mage apprentice. Although the people of Seir have a reverent attitude towards mages due to the rule of the Red Robes, it doesn't mean they keep their distance - after all, in Seir's system, there may be Red Robe members among their close or distant relatives, so it's nothing unusual after all these years. Therefore, they aren't too afraid of a black-robed apprentice. The small city was usually quiet and dull, but now there's been a change. In short, the citizens still have a welcoming attitude towards Panni.

  So Penny became a celebrity overnight, and when the tavern opened in the morning, people were still greeting him warmly. A little while later, two men walked into the tavern, and Penny was surprised that there were already customers coming to drink so early. As soon as they spoke up, it turned out that they were a chef and a minstrel who had come to apply for jobs. He was taken aback for a moment, although the tavern did indeed lack these two people, but he hadn't even put up a recruitment notice yet.

  "It was Ogden, the boss of Black Mare and Pale Moon, who ordered us to come. He said you would definitely give us a good price." The stout chef said so.

  Black Horse and Cang Yue, Pan Ni suddenly thought of Wei Ka, that mature and charming beauty, nodded slightly, then put on a smiling face: "The two of you can go to work now, with good pay, and there will be bonuses at the end of the month."

  "Thank you boss."

  The pub is ready for work.

  Now Penny can think about other things with a clear mind.

  He returned to his room, opened the spellbook and began studying spells. He needed to learn some quick-to-use techniques. The next study list includes: Burning Hand, Endure Elements, Grease Spell, Weakness Ray.

  Yesterday evening, he tried several times and successfully experimented with the weakening ray. This magic can turn a lively warrior into a severely ill person with no limbs, which is very practical.

  There are only a few spells left, and he still hasn't made much progress on the defensive system's tolerance for elemental damage. Although he has already identified Burning Hand and Grease Spell by 70-80%, these two spells have some destructive power, so he needs to find an external experiment.

  He went to the backyard, tried a few times, wasted all four spell slots, and used the Grease Spell to turn a clear water ditch into a muddy ditch. He also set off a fire, and time flew by quickly. Meanwhile, on another street, discussions about this transformed tavern continued.

  "Miss, why did you send our cook and minstrel to that den of wolves?"

  "Oh? You think we have enough capital and a red-robed background to snatch away the business of this tavern?" Vika turned her head, smiling slightly: "Auren, if they can't do business well then that's it, but that new boss is quite an interesting little brother."

  "Hmm... but miss, at this rate, how long will it take for us to earn enough money to satisfy the old master?" Ogen was a bit disheartened, but he also knew that Vika was right. If the tavern didn't do well, then so be it. But if business picked up and conflicts of interest arose, Black Horse and Cang Yue, separated by just one street, would be as eye-catching as a beacon in the dark night.

  "There are many ways to make money, and there's always a way to earn it." Vika smiled softly and gazed out the window: "And I think that little brother will bring me surprises."

  "Is it, miss?" Ogden had nothing more to say.

  "Today is the day of magic, we are going to visit the temple of Goddess Wogin, get ready, hoping that the goddess can point us a new way."

  "Alright, alright."

  ……

  The cold current of the Great Glacier almost invades the northern shore of the Fallen Star Sea all year round. The northern regions, such as Laisemann, are covered with ice and snow for most of the year, although it is a bit south of Serl. By the time of the decline (September), the climate has a big difference from warmth. The more it gets to this point, the more Panni feels that learning the 'Endure Elemental Damage' spell is a necessary thing.

  The seventh day of the first week (a week in Ferelden is ten days) of the month of decline, was the tenth of twelve annual celebrations for the goddess of commerce, Wochin. As usual, all followers of Wochin would gather at the temple to offer their prayers, and as a foreign guest who had received the blessings of the goddess, it was an occasion that could not be missed.

  Penny had mastered the magic, feeling extremely good. Seeing the tavern operating normally and even having a few customers, he felt great and wanted to thank Wogin sister again. He went upstairs to tidy up his things, passing by a room, suddenly smelling the damp air inside, turned his head to see the girl's head buried in the bed, looking very downcast, suddenly an idea struck him.

  Such a rebellious and delinquent girl who doesn't come home at night is like a time bomb. If Penny isn't careful one day, Hickory might just make a move on her, and he'll probably be 'done for'.

  Every time Penny thought of the possibility, she got a headache. Fortunately, she didn't think about it in the morning, otherwise she wouldn't have studied magic. With such an unstable factor, if Penny's magic level reached 8th rank, even thinking of a secondary command spell to make her obey would be unknown whether Jian Hua Shi would agree. Now he saw Xikuo lying on the bed, propping up his chin and thinking for a moment, feeling that it was better to exert some influence in a planned way.

  He went downstairs and instructed Damon to get some cheap herbs from the herbal shop across the street, made a cup of medicinal water, brought it upstairs, and called out to Hayley. The girl opened her eyes in a daze:

  "Waa... Mom, I want to sleep some more..."

  Her face had a faint flush, and her murmured words came out of her pale lips that were slightly bloodless, soft to the bone.

  Ben can't help but laugh.

  The girl quickly came to her senses, feeling both ashamed and angry:

  "You're this zombie monkey!"

  "Not very friendly." Penny was immediately speechless.

  "Don't disturb my rest, you'd better give me a good reason."

  "Of course, today is the Magic Festival. As someone under Lady Wogin's protection, shouldn't I go to the temple to show some respect?"

  "This has nothing to do with you." Hickel's expression softened slightly, faith was one of the most important parts of a Ferengi's life, and using this as an entry point, no one would strongly refute.

  At least give the rich lady some face.

  "As your fellow traveler, it matters a great deal to me that we part on good terms." said Penny.

  "But we're not going that way!" Hickory grumbled.

  "You have to think, you will eventually go anyway, whether it's in the bright sunshine, listening to the songs of the troubadours and celebrating with enthusiastic followers, or choosing the quiet of a deep night."

  "I don't like noise." Hickel's face darkened, his hands wrapped around his knees, and he tilted his head to one side: "A quieter atmosphere is more suitable for me."

  "No one should have to 'fit in' with a gloomy atmosphere unless she wants to, but your current attitude tells me you don't want to." Perceiving the girl's emotions, Penny said so. Half a day passed without hearing the girl respond, and when she looked down, she saw Shikoru burying her head deep between her arms, her shoulders slightly heaving, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

  "Sometimes, what prevents us from being happy doesn't come from outside, but from ourselves."

  "Shǎo guǐ chě le......nǐ shén me dōu bù lǐ jiě......" yóu láng nǚ de gēng yù.

  Translation:

  "You don't understand anything......" the girl sobbed.

  "I don't understand anything, I've told you before, I'm not interested in knowing your business. Now, all I see is an unhappy person." Penny said so: "And trying to make her happy."

  Heikeol fell onto the bed, his chest heaving up and down, staring blankly at the ceiling with a weak and unfocused gaze.

  "Here, this is a wakefulness drink, it can make you spirited today without sleep, but drinking twice in a row will turn it into poison, don't drink too much." Penny handed the cup to the girl and winked.
