"Yo, why's there a bird in the shop?" Genji saw a white bird standing by the counter as soon as he stepped into the shop at noon.
So he excitedly opened a pack of elven biscuits, crushed them, and poured them on a plate. But the bird didn't seem to be interested in the plate of biscuit crumbs in front of it until Luo Bu glanced at it. It suddenly shivered, lowered its head, and ate in big mouthfuls like a refugee who hadn't eaten for a few days.
"Wow, it's a white raven." Fatso reached out a hand and stroked the bird's feathers. "I heard that these birds are very valuable because they fly at a much higher altitude than normal birds. It's hard to identify them with the naked eye in the sky, and they're also very fast. They have almost no natural enemies, and many big families will specially raise them to deliver messages." Genji was very excited. "This one of yours looks very handsome too. Have you tried to get it to deliver a letter or something?"
"Oh, I bought this bird from the roadside last night for a silver coin. Why, does it still have that function?"
"Not wild ones. The cheapest trained white raven costs thirty to forty gold coins. It's a pity that it's already matured and can't be trained anymore. That's why it's sold so cheaply. But it's not bad as a pet in the shop." Fatso said regretfully.
The white raven felt that it was being looked down upon, but when it looked at the young man who was slowly cooking blueberry jam, its rationality won over its impulsiveness, and it continued to eat the biscuit crumbs that it did not like.
Just when it finally finished the plate of biscuits in front of it, Genji opened another pack and said passionately, "Eat more if you like it. It's not like you need to deliver letters or maintain your figure."
The white raven was speechless.
Fortunately, Rob saved its life at the crucial moment. The future Supreme Magister Your Honor sealed the blueberry jam in a bottle and looked up at Fatso. "Don't you have classes in the afternoon? Why are you here?"
Genji averted his gaze and pretended to be nonchalant. "I … I haven't been here for a long time."
Abby, who was wiping the table, asked curiously, "Didn't you come here yesterday? Oh, you came here the day before yesterday, and the day before yesterday. Eh, you seem to be coming here more frequently than the boss these days …"
Fatso blushed and stammered, "I … I'm here to help. I'm afraid that you and Master Wukaili are too busy. Don't … don't overthink it."
"Sigh, but you're not of much help every time you come. All you do is wander around and disturb my work." Abby mercilessly exposed Genji's lie.
Genji was like a prawn on a steamer, wishing he could sink to the bottom of the pot. He felt that Master Wukaili and Rob were looking at him differently, especially the latter's faint smile that made Fatso feel like his deepest secret had been seen through. He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Perhaps the only one who did not understand the situation was Abby herself. The girl obviously misunderstood Genji's current expression, thinking that he was embarrassed because she had exposed his crime. She said proudly, "Hehe, don't think I don't know what you're up to. You're trying to eat the bread when I'm not paying attention! That's impossible. Look at your physique, I can beat you up with one hand ~ "
Fatso felt wronged but could not explain himself. In the end, he could only say tearfully, "Yes, yes, yes … I won't eat it again." Genji then looked at Rob for help and said hurriedly, "Are you going back to school now? Let's go together."
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor shook his head. "You go back first. I have something to take care of in the afternoon. I've already asked for leave."
…
It was Rob's first time entering the small bookstore named Fishing's Friend. From the outside, it looked no different from the other bookstores. However, due to the limited scope of the business, there were only two old men flipping through the Wetland Fishing Companion's Self-Help Guide. Apart from that, there was no one else in the huge store. However, the store was very quiet. After closing the door and isolating the noise from the street, it was as if he had entered a different world.
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor walked to the third bookshelf and pulled out the seventh book from the second row. Just as he flipped the book's title page, a girl with a pure appearance but an exaggerated chest suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost.
"Do you like this book?" The girl asked.
"Who wouldn't like this book?" Rob said calmly without raising his head.
"Oh, can you tell me what's so good about this book?" The girl brushed her bangs aside and humbly took two steps forward. At such a close distance, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor could already smell her body fragrance. He closed the Complete Guide to Fishing Bait and leaned forward. The girl subconsciously took half a step back and pressed her back against the bookshelf. At that moment, she looked incomparably delicate and helpless, giving people the urge to do something.
Rob did not hold back. In the next moment, he pressed his body against the girl and lifted her chin with his finger. "It's not good for a girl to have so many questions. Didn't your mother teach you not to strike up a conversation with a stranger in a bookstore?"
A blush appeared on the young girl's face as she crossed her arms in front of her chest. However, this action inadvertently highlighted her impressive breasts. At the same time, she gently rubbed her calves and closed her eyes, as if she had completely given up resisting.
However, after waiting for a long time, the man in front of her did not move.
The girl opened her eyes. The shyness and weakness from before were all gone. She nodded at Rob. "The second sentence of 'The Pure Maiden and the Feeder' is not bad, but it's not complete enough. Why didn't you recreate the kiss at the end? In addition, there are two emotional expressions in the middle that are wrong. The most important characteristic of the male protagonist of this book is aggression. You were too polite just now. You could have been a little more rough. However, for a newcomer, this performance is barely a pass. Congratulations, you have passed the test. Welcome to the Otherworld. I am the creator and manager of the Otherworld — Immaculate Flower. How should I address you? "
"My name is …"
Before Luo Bu could finish, he was interrupted by the girl. "You don't need your real name to enter the Otherworld. All we use here are codenames. The things you have in the outside world, including your status and family background, are all meaningless. Only the Otherworld is real. You will be reborn here. Didn't your sponsor, the Flaming Eyes, tell you this?"
"Err, actually, that guy only told me that there will be a test in the afternoon and asked me to finish reading those books." The future Supreme Magus Your Honor thought for a moment. "You can call me the Red Dragon."
