"Are you serious?" Lily stared at Mofan.
She wanted to become a Mage. She wanted to be respected by everyone. She didn't need to do anything, just like the students of the Aorus Sacred Institute. No matter where she went, she would be treated like a princess as long as she claimed she was a student of the Aorus Sacred Institute.
"Of course, but it's up to you whether you can Awaken a Stone successfully," Mofan told Lily.
"I can definitely do it!" Lily, the broom girl, was very confident in herself.
"Can you wipe your tears and lead the way? Has your village always been planting aloe vera?" Mofan asked.
Lily was eager to lead the way now that she was qualified to become a Mage. She answered every question. She was a completely different person from the annoying, ugly girl she was before.
It made sense. It was rare to become a Mage in the Americas. The limited number of Awakening Stones was controlled by the Magic Association. The Magic Association would distribute the Awakening Stones to schools, governments, military, and clans …
Lily had only attended school for a few years. She would be lucky if she could find a free job. It was impossible for her to become a Mage.
Mo Fan could see her desire, so he did not mind giving her a chance. After all, it was his privilege as an honorable mentor. He was allowed to apply for an Awakening Stone from the Magic Association without being tested by the school. He would receive ten Awakening Stones every year for free, so he could give them away as he pleased.
"Mofan, aren't you a little too light lately?" Zhao Manyan took a closer look at Lily. He did not see anything wrong with the girl, apart from her bad temper. He had no idea why Mofan would waste his time on an insignificant person like her.
"Is that the only difference between a man and a woman in your mind? Can't you be a little more noble? We are now a great teacher of the people!" Mofan said.
"Hehe," Zhao Manyan smiled.
…
Lily had grown up in the village. If she was a local, she could live a prosperous life with the precious succulents they planted. Unfortunately, she was only a niece living under someone else's roof. She had to live with her bad-tempered aunt.
"Other than having different boyfriends every day, my aunt only knows how to make me work …"
"You don't have to say these things. We are more interested in the things grown here. These succulent plants are better than other places. There should be some special way to grow them, right? "Mubai asked.
"Planting method? I don't know. I'm not interested in farming at all. I don't want to be a farmer, "Lily said disdainfully.
"Do you sell your goods elsewhere?" Mubai asked.
"There should be. We have some cooperation with some European merchants. They come here to buy every harvest season!" Lily nodded.
"Who are the merchants?" Mubai's expression changed slightly, but he still pretended to be indifferent.
"I don't know about that. European women especially like our things here. Italy, France, England, Greece. My aunt is a receptionist for foreign businessmen. She would always pull me along. Hmph, I don't know about their disgusting relationship. Those old men have weird looks in their eyes! "Lily said.
"Lily, with your looks, most of them really want to do business with you," Zhao Manyan said straightforwardly.
"You are the only one who is good-looking! In America, people like you are the most popular among the strong men! "Lily retorted.
"Instructor, there is nothing to see here. Let's go to the next place."
"This is so boring. Isn't it just a run-down village? There isn't even a decent restaurant. Are we supposed to eat cacti?"
"We can go to Norzak City. It's fun there!"
Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Mubai exchanged glances. They actually wanted to stay a little longer, but the students were clamoring to leave. This was not a good thing. There were still many places in the village that they had not explored yet. How could they know if the Black Vatican was hiding in the village?
"There's a mountain behind you surrounded by barbed fences. What's that for?" Mo Fan pointed in a random direction.
"That place? I don't know. I think it's for the most expensive cacti. Normally, the villagers aren't allowed to go there, as they are afraid they will trample on the plants that are more expensive than gold," Lily said.
"Can we go take a look?"
"I'll ask my aunt."
…
They met Lily's aunt. She was a tanned woman, but her figure was in good shape. She was flattered when she saw the people from the Aorus Sacred Institute in fancy clothes.
"You want to see the valuable plants behind the mountain? Sure, I'll bring you there." Lily's aunt was very friendly and friendly. She was not an old witch like Lily had described her to be.
Kindness and evil were relative. She would welcome the geniuses of the Aorus Sacred Institute with the best attitude she could muster.
Mubai insisted on taking a look at the mountain behind the mountain despite the students' tiredness.
"Why isn't there anything here?" Mubai said in disappointment when he saw the half-wet soil that had been dug up.
"It's a harvest. The cacti and aloe vera have been sent to the factory. They will be finished soon. Look at my skin. It's only because I've been applying aloe vera for so many years," Lily's aunt said seductively. She even glanced at Zhao Manyan while she was talking.
Zhao Manyan shuddered. He quickly pretended that he did not see it.
…
The three had no choice but to leave the place since they did not find anything.
They did not find a single stalk of the Frenzy Poppy at the place where they were most likely to find it. Mo Fan began to wonder if they had gone in the wrong direction.
They pretended to clean up the nests of some lesser demons. When night fell, the three of them sat together gloomily and drank wine by the beach ….
"Don't tell me there's no clue at all?" Zhao Manyan asked.
"Maybe we were too late. They have already taken the Frenzy Poppy," Mubai said.
"Are you still suspicious of the Aloe Hui Village?" Zhao Manyan said.
"Yeah, they have dug up the soil. It doesn't make sense. Succulents can absorb the water and nutrients in the soil. It's meaningless to dig up the soil," Mubai said.
"Mubai, keep investigating the Aloe Hui Village. I'll check out the other village," Mo Fan said.
"The other village?"
"The Coral Village that I paid a thousand gold for," Mo Fan said.
"What? You said you were a glorious teacher just because you want the money back. Don't do something that will ruin your reputation!" Zhao Manyan said.
