Fjords, Sleeping Island.
"I didn't expect that the first guest of" Sleeping Spell "would be you," Tilly smiled and handed him a cup of hot fish soup. "Thanks to your help in exploring the ruins of the Shadow Islands."
"You're welcome," Thunder took the fish soup. "Regarding that mysterious sea, even if I don't pay the commission, I'm willing to go there several times. To be honest, if there are no witches to accompany me, the east of the Shadow Islands is definitely a dangerous forbidden area for explorers. " He took a sip of the fish soup and couldn't help but let out a breath of hot air. "Ah … blacktail fish soup is really delicious."
Neither black tea nor black tea ale was popular in the Fjords. They were used to having a bowl of cold fish jelly in midsummer and a cup of boiled fish soup when the weather turned cold. Different kinds of fish cooked had very different tastes, this was a custom that Tilly gradually understood after coming to Sleeping Island.
"That's why you couldn't wait to visit the Sleeping Spell?"
"To be exact, I can't wait to start the next adventure," Thunder said with a forthright smile. "The last time I saw the scene in the ruins' observation mirror, I was stunned. What was on that land, why did the stone door appear on the cliff, I couldn't wait to fly over and see."
"Really …" Tilly also poured herself a cup of fish soup. "You should know that I intend to go to Border Town in person. I want to have a good talk with the Lord of the Witch Cooperation Association, and I also want to see the Months of Demons in the Western Region. You … don't you want to go with us? "
He was silent for a moment, then grinned and said, "No, she should have a good life there, this is also good … after all, with this kind of adventure, accidents may happen one day. I lost her mother, I don't want to lose her again. When the time comes, I ask you … "
"I will," Tilly nodded. "After all, she is also one of us." She stopped here and smiled. "But business is business, although you have helped us a lot, the price for hiring witches still has to be according to the table."
"Of course, business is business. This is the tradition of the Fjords." Thunder drank the fish soup in one gulp and laughed out loud.
…
Seeing that Thunder had left the palace, Ashes walked in from outside the hall and sat down cross-legged beside Tilly. "So, who did he hire?"
"'Magic Servant' Molly, 'Any Door' Orbit, and 'Doll' Shadow." Tilly unfolded the contract. "The fee is finally set at 4,800 Golden Dragon Stones. Very generous, right?"
"Four thousand …" Ashes's jaw dropped. "Where did he get so much money?"
"Don't forget, Thunder is the most famous explorer in the Fjords," the 5th Princess said with a smile. "Whether it's the discovery of new routes or the discovery of treasures from various places, they can all bring him a lot of wealth. Because of this, he has the ability to recruit a large group of experienced sailors to accompany him to explore mysterious and dangerous areas. But with a witch, the risk he has to take is greatly reduced. Using money to offset the risk has always been a good deal since ancient times. "
"But, is this really good?" Ashes said hesitantly. "Establishing a bounty guild can indeed bring a lot of wealth to Sleeping Island, but the witches' abilities will also be exposed. If the Church hears about it …"
"Sleeping Spell" was a new guild established by Tilly. Here, the explorers of the Fjords could hire witches with suitable abilities to help them complete their exploration. Of course, in addition to the main projects, it also provided many convenient services, such as repairing damaged items, making some exquisite works of art, quickly building houses, growing flowers and killing insects. As long as the witches didn't use their abilities to do evil, they would be accepted by "Sleeping Spell".
Of course, the premise of all this was that the witches' abilities were publicized.
Tilly took Ashes's hand. "Didn't I tell you? I don't care about those Golden Dragons, but I hope that through the bounty guild, more people can understand Sleeping Island and reach a close relationship with us. I agree with Thunder's words that fear comes from the unknown. The same goes for witches. The fear of the Fjords islanders and the people of the Kingdom comes from nothing but the Church's slander and their own ignorance. "
"I can't force them to take the initiative to contact and understand witches, so I can only actively promote myself, telling them that this is not the power of the Devil, and that the witches' abilities are not strange and unpredictable – they are awakened from ordinary people, but in essence, they are still a member of the human race. When they know more about each other, this fear will disappear. " She paused and then continued, "As for the Church, they never care about what abilities we have. Capturing witches has always been the responsibility of the Judgement Army, and occasionally the God's Punishment Army. In front of the God's Stone of Retaliation, any ability is not much different. "
"I hope what you said is right," Ashes said softly. "I only know how to fight and kill, so I can't help you with this."
"You've already helped me a lot," Tilly smiled. "If I want to develop Sleeping Island, the most important thing is to connect with the Fjords. Understanding each other is a process, and what I'm doing is just to shorten this process as soon as possible. In addition, the bounty guild can also play a special role, "she stuck out her tongue and revealed a sly smile." That is to find new uses for some seemingly useless abilities, so that non-combat witches don't have to feel frustrated because their abilities are not useful. "
Ashes was amused by her expression, "You always have so many reasons, layer after layer, it's hard not to accept them."
"Because what I said is right," Tilly curled her lips. "Let's change the topic. Maggie still hasn't returned to Sleeping Island. Did something happen there?"
"Maybe she was delayed," Ashes thought for a moment. "Or …"
"What?"
"She doesn't want to come back," she shrugged. "Compared to the Fjords, the living conditions there are much better. I already said not to send witches there, what if Lotus and Honey also don't want to come back? "
"Then let's go," Tilly said.
"Oh, then I'll go prepare … What?" Ashes was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. "We, we go there?"
Princess Tilly curled her lips. "Didn't we agree to help him fight against the demonic beasts and bring back the other witches? Without Lotus, next year the immigrants in Crescent Moon Bay won't have a house to live in. "
"But there is still more than a month before winter, so there's no need to go there so soon, right?"
