Although they were different people, they had one thing in common — they were all determined. They would never give up on their pursuits.
However, Angele was still interested in the new world. For Magi, it was rare for them to experience something new and interesting in the process of exploring the world, and it was a good way to relax.
Therefore, when everyone hoped for peace talks, no one would be so blind as to go against everyone's will. Angele was not worried about his safety anymore.
"Tell me, what do you want?" Angele was interested after seeing the girl's reaction. In the past, before he became a Wizard, he was still an apprentice. Although he had a status as a foil, he had never enjoyed such treatment that would make a little girl blush. It was the first time he was treated like this, even though he was a powerful wizard in the eyes of mortals.
Saya quickly grabbed his sister's hand.
In the reading room, Angele was sipping a glass of warm milk while looking at the two girls in front of him.
One of them was Sari, who was wearing a black and white maid outfit. The other one was a boy with red hair.
"Tell me, what do you want? If it's not too much trouble, I can help you," Angele questioned.
He also had the Protection Signet, which was able to injure two rank 4 wizards and escape from them. Normal organizations would not dare to mess with them.
Angele smiled but did not say anything.
The books on the bookshelf were moldy, but he did not have anyone who was willing to take care of them. This time, he had found a good candidate.
The boy was thin and was wearing an old gray robe. His face was pale, but his eyes were big and bright. He was looking at Angele with a hopeful look on his face.
"Thank you, master, thank you … Thank you …" Sari bowed to Angele, but she was dragged out of the room by Raylene. Raylene knew that Angele did not like loud noises, so she did not want to apologize or speak too loudly. Raylene was afraid that Angele would be annoyed by Sari's voice, so she quickly pulled Raylene away from the room.
That was the place Angele chose.
"I can read!" Saya responded in a loud voice. With a joyful look on his face, he carefully took the book as if it was a precious treasure. He held the book in his hands.
"Yes, Sir." Saya quickly lowered his voice and nodded.
Angele was in a good mood.
Angele informed his subordinates through the ring that he would be meeting with them in person. During this period of time, more than twenty people had taken the initiative to pledge their loyalty to him. Including the people who had joined him before, there were now more than forty people. This was almost half of the elites in the Tarry River Region.
Time slowly passed as the two of them worked together.
Angele also noticed that he had been practicing martial arts since he was young, and it seemed like he was quite strong. It reminded him of Freia's brother, the child who had become insignificant.
"Thank you, my lord! Thank you, my lord! " His hoarse face revealed an ecstatic expression. His entire small face was completely beaming, and he was so excited that his voice trembled.
"Come here and take a closer look. Can you read? "
Angele was quite satisfied with the boy's behavior. Sometimes, Angele would even hint to the boy that he could read the books when he was about to leave the study.
To Angele's surprise, Saya's sister, Sari, would peek at him from a corner when she was cleaning the house. She would blush and quickly move her eyes away when Angele noticed her. She looked like a frightened deer. It seemed like she had a crush on Angele.
Although Angele did not forbid Saya from reading books, Saya still tried his best not to read any of the books. Even though Saya's face was filled with desire.
"Last question. Do you know how to take care of these books?" Angele picked up the book he had been reading for the past few days.
Angele might be able to change someone's life if he made a random decision, but it was just a random decision for him.
Angele was not only the owner of the books, but also the owner of his sister's contract. Saya had to control himself no matter how much he wanted to read the books. He did not want to cause any trouble for his sister. His sister had already taken a huge risk for him to read the books. If anything were to happen again, the siblings would not be able to bear the consequences.
The two siblings stood in the room and did not straighten up.
Sari swallowed her saliva and responded in a low voice.
"Thirteen. He … used to take care of the books in our lord's house, "Sari responded quickly.
"Don't be so loud when you answer my questions." Angele waved his hand.
From Saya's mutterings, he had basically explained all the meticulous maintenance of the book made of this material. Angele nodded, satisfied.
"Alright, from now on, you'll take care of the books for me. You'll get paid at 10 gold coins per month. What do you think? Are you willing? "
"Saya? Stand up first. I have a few questions for you. "
Angele nodded slightly as he listened. He had read many books on how to maintain the skin. Different materials had different ways to maintain the skin. However, it was one thing to know how to maintain the skin, but it was another thing to have the time to do so.
"The marks are from a long time ago. This material … It's made from the bark of a high-quality White Horn Tree. It needs to be exposed to the sun every three months for more than an hourglass. It can't be damp, and it needs to be protected from dust. For insect repellent, place some white pine branches around it. If you wear gloves when reading it, the book can last for hundreds of years … "Saya looked at the book in his hand with a sincere expression on his face. He started mumbling to himself. It seemed like he was in a trance.
The book looked like a black brick, and the words "Family Glory" were printed on the cover.
They all received Angele's message and asked to meet in the Blue Golden Cave in the Red Stone Mountain by the edge of the Tarry River area.

However, the kid did not need a lot of money. Angele was worried that he would ruin the kid if he received too much money at such a young age. He just needed to make sure that Saya had enough money. Also, Angele's reputation would ensure that Saya could grow up safely.
The taverns in the town were like brothels.
Sometimes, when Angele looked at Saya who was busy organizing the books, he could not help but sigh.
And now, in his study, this young child was like a sponge, hungrily absorbing any nutrients that could be absorbed, laying a good foundation for his future life.
"First question, where are your parents?"
Both Saya and Sari looked dejected at the same time.
Over the next ten days. Saya did not disappoint Angele. He categorized all the books and took care of them once. The books in the study were clean and tidy.
Saya was a bit surprised. It seemed like he had never thought about this question before. He lowered his head for a while and suddenly raised his head.
Although the information of these books had been stored in his A.I. Chip, occasionally taking them out and flipping through them with his eyes was a kind of quiet enjoyment.
Angele nodded approvingly. He could tell that Saya was much more mature than his age despite his young age. It seemed like Saya had gone through a lot.
"Ma … Master, I have a brother … He loves reading since he was young. I heard that you have a lot of books here, so I want to recommend him to take care of the books …"
"Master, in my eyes, every book is a priceless gem. I can learn many things from the books and see many things that I can't see in the outside world!"
Saya would never be stingy when it came to people he admired.
Saya was overjoyed. She started taking care of the books more carefully. She also spent more time taking care of the books so that she could peek at the books.
The Elemental Hand and the White City Alliance were starting to negotiate. The situation had been in a stalemate for a while. Both sides did not want to fight anymore. The other forces around the Elemental Hand suffered a lot from the war, so they wanted to make peace with the White City Alliance. This was the irresistible trend. The peace talks were now at a critical juncture.
"I don't know. Master, we were sold by our families, "Sari responded in a low voice. "If Raylene didn't choose us, I would have been in a tavern in the town."
"Okay, second question." Angele remained calm. He had seen this kind of situation many times. "Saya, why do you like books?"
Three days later, in the morning.
Saya was a man who had a strong desire for knowledge. If he was given a small chance, he would be able to shine brightly. If Saya did not die in an accident, he would not be a normal person in the future.
Angele turned a blind eye to this. He respected people who had a strong desire for knowledge, especially those who were young.
The Blue Gold Cave was located in the middle of Angele's way to the banquet.
It was time to attend the count's banquet.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. The incident with Saya and his brother was just a small incident.
Angele told his subordinates to take care of everything in the mansion after notifying them. Lyn wanted to follow him, but Angele found an excuse to send her away. She knew that Angele was busy dealing with personal matters, so she did not insist. It was also because the situation had calmed down recently.
Angele smiled and did not think too much about it. At least he did not have to worry about the books getting mildewed.
Anyone who had anything to do with the Sorcerers was a threat and disaster to ordinary people.
* BAM *
Of course, it was also because he did not want to change his appearance.
He bowed deeply and abruptly, bending over. The sari on the other side also bent down heavily.
"Yes, Master!" Saya and his brother stood up and answered loudly.
For an average person, ten gold coins would be enough to cover a month's worth of expenses if they were frugal. Of course, that was if they took care of their own food and did not eat out. If they went out to eat, they wouldn't be able to support the high prices with just a few gold coins.
"Master, my name is Saya. Please … Please trust me. I will take good care of your books! "
"Take care of books?" Angele raised his eyebrows. "How old is your brother?"
"Ask him to come and try. If he can do it, he can stay. "Angele nodded.
Angele looked at the two children with interest.
The Blue Gold Cave was rarely visited. There were wizards living here before, but it was abandoned. Although there was a name for it, it was still a terrifying place for ordinary people to avoid.
