Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome
Chapter 27: The Sea People Are Really Simple, Warm and Kind
What a joke, how could she buy something without bargaining? And three months is too long, she wants to rush the delivery! "If I have to wait three months, I don't think it's worth the price."
"This new student...Miss! You may not understand space magic." Seeing the magic stone getting farther and farther away from him, the shop owner opened his eyes wide and wrestled with Lilith secretly, while trying to smile warmly. "It has been many years since we have seen a human who can master this kind of magic. Even you, Goletia, have given up offering this course. It is based on a special method that is not based on elemental theory..."
Lilith tilted her head to look at him and continued to pull the corner of the scarf tighter and pull it outward.
"I can only ask for help from some foreign friends, you know? And it depends on whether they have the time and mood... one month!" The old man saw that he couldn't get Lilith to do it, so he quickly changed his words.
Very good, as long as I can't stop pushing him, I will push him to death. "Maybe I should go to another store. Sorry to bother you..." Lilith still didn't let go.
"You asked to use a ring or a necklace. The smaller the medium, the more complicated the process required. It needs to be compressed repeatedly... half a month! I have to pay for the magic teleportation array myself! I really didn't make much money from you, little girl!" The old man wanted to cry but had no tears. Seeing that Lilith still didn't let go, he was so anxious that he raised his hand and a small crucible flew over from a large container.
"Made by dwarves! Exclusively for witches! I spent a long time trying to get this last-minute item. This is the only one in Goletia this year! It's mixed with obsidian, so it won't explode even with the most intense magic shock! There's also a matching obsidian element bottle, which won't explode either. If it does, I'll compensate you! It's all here!"
Lilith touched the crucible that was flashing with strange blue-black light spots. She tried to lift it with one hand but failed. It was very heavy. She nodded secretly. It looked like it was made of real materials. She finally smiled. "Oh, I really like these gifts. Boss, you are such a generous person. No wonder the seniors all recommended this store."
"...Huh?" The boss was stunned. Wait, when did he say this was a gift? He just wanted to give a discount!
"I will come here more often in the future." Lilith smiled and let go of his hand. Don't bargain too hard and make the boss angry.
"Then I'll come back to pick up the goods in half a month. Don't you need to write me a receipt or something?" Lilith picked out some other things, then stuffed all the messy things she bought into the crucible, picked it up with difficulty and asked.
"No need." The boss shook his head absentmindedly. No matter who I forget, I will never forget you.
Lilith nodded, picked up her beloved cauldron in one go, and turned away.
The grocery store owner was left holding his bag like a nagging woman, lost in thought... He still hadn't figured out whether he had made a profit or a loss.
Near noon, a bar across the street had opened its doors, and the owner came out and sat outside the door to bask in the sun, just in time to see Lilith leave. He raised his voice to the grocery store owner who was standing inside the store and exclaimed, "This year's freshmen are really rich, aren't they, Antonio? I see you're doing great business this year!"
The red-nosed old man named Antonio came out silently and nodded expressionlessly. "Rich, but stingy..."
……
Miss Lilith, who was rich but stingy, was now exhausted and collapsed on the side of the road, gasping for breath.
This pot is too heavy! ! She couldn't carry it to the dormitory in one go. She had to put it down and rest every once in a while.
"Do you need help?" a voice came from above.
Lilith looked up and saw a blue-haired boy sitting on a high tree branch, as lively and energetic as a spring bird, his long legs swinging casually. The sun shone on him, as if he was covered with a layer of golden light. He had several long thin ropes in his hands and on his body, and he seemed to be playing with them out of boredom.
Lilith was dazzled by his icy blue hair. After coming to her senses, she tried to decline, "Thank you, I can do it myself—"
The boy on the tree smiled, showing his white teeth, "I believe you can do it, but there are some less laborious ways." He was twirling a few ropes in his hands, and he quickly tied a few knots in the ropes while talking. Then he grabbed the branch with one hand and swung down lightly in two or three swings.
The young man came forward and squatted, and neatly put the knot on the four legs of the crucible. After winding it up a few more times, his fingers flew and tied a few more thick knots. Then he smiled at Lilith, lifted his body, put his arms in, and carried it on his back.
Lilith's mouth opened wide. What a wonderful knot-tying technique! It took him less than two minutes to tie the rope and the crucible together into a sturdy backpack structure after he jumped down.
"You, you are really amazing... Thank you for your help." Lilith thanked sincerely. She was really lucky today. The blue-haired Shamatte boy on the roadside turned out to be an enthusiastic rope art master! !
The boy seemed to be unaccustomed to the way Lilith spoke, and rubbed his nose. "No need to use honorifics to me, I'm just new here." He tightened the rope on his shoulders, "Where is your dormitory? Come on, I'll take you there." After walking two steps, he remembered to introduce himself. "Oh, my name is Lucas. I'm a new guardian this year."
"My name is Lilith, and I'm also a freshman this year." Lilith hurriedly responded to this enthusiastic classmate. She followed and led the way. In order to avoid an awkward silence on the road, Lilith took the initiative to start a topic: "Your hair is really special, Lucas, I've never seen such a beautiful color. Did you dye it with some magic potion?" Although she had seen hair of various colors in Gloria, this ice blue was really too advanced... Coupled with the boy's handsome face, it reminded her of some European and American idols that her roommates chased in her previous life.
"Ah? This is natural." Lucas casually rubbed his blue hair. Lilith noticed that his arms were slender. Although the muscles on the exposed half of his wheat-colored forearms were not as well-developed as those of Senior Todd, the clear and tight muscle lines could be seen, which was very beautiful. "The hair colors of us sea people are quite diverse."
Lilith was secretly surprised that the boy in front of her was actually a seaman. But her tone remained unchanged, "So that's how it is. How enviable."
Perhaps it was Lilith's enthusiastic attitude that surprised Lucas. He turned his head to look at the blonde girl walking beside him, and smiled with his white fangs showing. "I thought you would scream and run away when you heard the sea people, Lilith. There was a lady who did that just now."
"Why are you running? You have all my stuff." Lilith looked up and smiled at the boy. "I've met a few sea folks before. They were all very nice people. They even predicted the coming of a rainstorm for me. Can you do this, Lucas?"
Lucas shook his head honestly, "Not yet. My perception is not accurate. It should be possible when I'm older."
Lilith raised her eyebrows in surprise, she thought this was a life experience passed down by word of mouth among the sea people, but now hearing Lucas' tone, it turned out to be a blood talent that awakened over time?
She had always thought that the Sea People were ordinary fishermen who made a living from the sea on the east coast. Now it seemed that the Sea People were indeed a little different. Their hair color and their ability to predict wind and rain made Lilith feel a sense of mystery. What exactly were the Sea People?
Finally arriving at the small building where Lilith lived, Lucas unloaded the crucible, squatted down and untied the complicated knots one by one.
Lilith looked at Lucas' bright blue hair and his serious look. She was impressed by the honest, warm-hearted and kind-hearted people of the sea. She was wondering how to invite this enthusiastic young man to have lunch. Lucas had already untied all the rope buckles skillfully. He stood up, raised his hand and wrapped the rope around his shoulders, and stretched out his hand.
"Ten silver coins, Lilith-san."
