Chapter 897 The Last Daily Life 76
this day.
Wiz was in the magic tool shop, feeling sad. She held her face with her hands and sighed, “Ah… What should I do…?”
Don't worry, she has these days every month, and they are quite regular. But please don't get me wrong, it's not what you think, but something more serious.
"Hello!"
At this time, the door of the magic tool shop was pushed open, and someone walked in while greeting. She said, "I brought the materials I needed to prepare today... Eh? Wiz, why do you look so sad?"
As soon as I came in, I saw Wiz sighing helplessly in front of the counter, and I couldn't help but ask this.
“It’s Miss Darkness… No, don’t worry, it’s nothing serious.”
Wiz smiled with a pale face.
Although her face was much paler than that of ordinary people due to her identity as a lich, she now looked obviously malnourished and weak to the point of disappearing. The sad and helpless atmosphere she created naturally did not make people think it was a big deal, so they looked at Vanir, who was hugging his chest with his hands and also having a headache.
"Because this useless shop owner has added unnecessary expenses, he can't pay the rent this month."
Vanir said this unhappily, and glared at Wiz with red eyes, which made her swallow in fear and take a step back involuntarily, because this usually means that he is going to use the killing ray.
"oops……!"
After hearing this, Darkness looked at Wiz awkwardly. After all, everyone knew how well Wiz spent money. He must have bought some random stuff, which made him short of money. Vanir made money very quickly, but even Vanir couldn't keep up with Wiz's spending speed. One could imagine how badly he spent money.
"No, it's okay! I'll use this new product to bring it back to life!!!"
As if sensing that Vanir was about to use the killing ray if they disagreed, and that their lives were in danger, Wiz quickly waved his hand to indicate that he had other ways to make money and showed them.
However, Vanir had no doubt about Wiz's ability to ruin a family. He was so angry when he saw the magic tool in her hand that he asked, "What is that thing in your hand?"
“Hehehe, this is the high-quality product we got yesterday!” Wiz’s face was filled with a happy smile. She showed it to the two of them with a smile on her face, and introduced it with a little complacency: “The effect of this magic item is—”
"Barnil-style, killing ray!!!"
Before she could finish, Vanir suddenly took action. A strong light immediately fell on the weak Lich Queen, causing her to scream and then fall to the ground neatly, her whole body turned black like a block of carbon.
“Ms. Wiz——?!”
Even though Darkness wanted to experience this pain, she couldn't go crazy after seeing Wiz so miserable. She rushed over to check on Wiz, but it was obvious that she was not well. She was already weak and her condition was even worse.
“Hey, Darkness, what are you taking so long for? It’s just delivering a material, but you’ve wasted too much time, haven’t you?”
At this time, Xiaolin also came in.
Because they were going to the Sky Castle, Kobayashi and the others brought the necessary materials as instructed by Vanir. However, when they arrived at the magic item shop, for various reasons, only Darkness could deliver the materials. Unexpectedly, she came in and did not leave for a long time. Worried that something might happen to her, Kobayashi followed her in.
Then they saw Vanir, who was furious with his eyes shining, and Wiz, who looked almost like a block of carbon, and Darkness, who was worried and holding her in her arms.
"Huh? Why is there so much noise? What happened?"
Although Xiaolin knew the reason without asking, he couldn't help but say it when he saw this long-lost scene.
“Wuwuwu…” Wiz’s body, which had turned into a block of carbon, had a good ability to recover. She choked back tears and complained to Vanir, “You didn’t even listen to my instructions. That’s too much…? I did this for the good of this store. Mr. Vanir has no conscience.”
"Good boy, good boy, let me pat your head. Cheer up, Miss Wiz, and fly away in pain~"
Darkness comforted Wiz like she was comforting a child, and after seeing this and hearing what Wiz said, Vanir immediately spit out a mouthful of disgust and said disdainfully: “I will return this sentence to you intact. If you really want to do good for this store, don’t do such a superfluous thing!”
“…Alas, it’s burnt.” Kobayashi looked at the miserable Wiz and did not show any sympathy for her. Instead, he guessed that she must have done something to anger Vanir, so he asked, “What messed-up cargo did you get this time to make Vanir so angry?”
"Don't spoil that useless shop owner too much!... It's all his fault. This shop doesn't even have a decent product to sell!"
Vanir said this angrily.
This guy was almost unable to hold it back. Normally, it would be fine if he bought in a bunch of random goods that couldn't be sold because of Wiz, but he clearly couldn't pay the rent for this month, yet he still bought in a bunch of random goods, causing them to become even more stretched. How could this not make Vanir angry?
Darkness also said with a slightly helpless tone: "Because of this, it seems that they can't pay the rent this month."
"Has it finally come to the point where we can't even pay the rent..." Kobayashi curled his lips. He didn't expect that Wiz could be such a spendthrift.
Come to think of it, it seems that Wiz had not reached this point before, but after Xiaolin volunteered to help them build their reputation and Vanir came to the store to help, Wiz's ability to spend money seemed to be even worse than before. Could it be that... Wiz's ability to spend money increases with his ability to make money, and is it a proportional relationship? !
Since they really couldn't make much money now, even Vanir couldn't make any money because he didn't have enough goods to sell. As the saying goes, a good cook can't cook without rice, and finally he couldn't even pay the rent...
"That's it, woo woo woo ..."
Wiz wiped away her tears in grievance.
I couldn't figure out if she was crying because she couldn't pay the rent, or if she was crying because she wanted to do her best for the store but was not understood, or if she was crying because she was hit by Vanir's destructive ray...
"I say, Mr. Kobayashi..."
Wiz raised her head at this time, her eyes slightly red and swollen, and she said in an almost pleading tone, "Do you have any good ideas to earn rent? Mr. Banier didn't even listen to my proposal and directly rejected it."
"…Because they are almost all bad proposals." Kobayashi couldn't help but complain. Wiz always did this kind of thing. Over time, Vanir was unwilling to listen. After all, they were almost all useless proposals.
But they couldn’t just let Wiz go into debt and not even be able to pay the rent. After all, they still needed Wiz’s help, so Kobayashi started thinking, and finally—
"By the way, how about this?!" Xiao Lin seemed to have thought of something, and clapped his hands and suggested: "Since there is nothing to sell in the store, let's sell things other than commodities."
“Hey, wait a minute, Xiaolin!” Darkness suddenly spoke up. “You’re not talking about… like what Dust sometimes says, [a method of using your body to make money]… right?! No, no! Things like that… ha… ah… ha… ah… using a method like that is really shameless. That method… that method… is awesome!”
The perverted female Crusader suddenly went crazy, and Wiz was immediately scared. She was afraid that the weak Lich Girl would really do such a thing, so she quickly turned her head to look at Kobayashi, hoping that he would scold Darkness and deny such remarks at the same time - as usual.
However, Xiaolin did not do so. Instead, he nodded as if he recognized Darkness's statement. He nodded in agreement and said, "It may not be wrong to use your body to make money...Darkness, your brain sometimes works unexpectedly fast."
“Eh? Eh, eh, eh??? Use, use, use… use your body to make money or something…?! No, no…”
Wiz's heart finally settled down.
I have to state here that Wiz has no right to refuse, because the weak Lich Girl is in great need of money to pay this month's rent.
But Wiz still made a final struggle, looking at Vanir beside him, and pleadingly said: "Mr. Vanir, Mr. Vanir, I know I was wrong, and I will never do such a thing again next time, so... I beg you, please ask Mr. Kobayashi to change his mind. He actually asked me to use my body to make money... That kind of thing, no one will like it, no matter me or those adventurers..."
"No, no, no, you useless shop owner seem to have underestimated your own charm. If there is anyone who can capture those restless adventurers, it is only you... It's great that you can finally be of use in a place like this."
“I, I don’t want to be used for something like this!!!”
Wiz said this almost crying.
Vanir turned around, looked at Xiaolin, nodded and said, "Not bad, kid, you can actually think of this aspect. This may be one of the few advantages of a useless shop owner. It looks like you can make a small fortune."
"Of course, I will make full use of Wiz's incomparable strengths!"
Xiaolin gave Vanir a thumbs up.
Then, two people - a Duke of Hell and an adventurer, stared at Wiz's perfect figure with the same smirk on their faces, which frightened the weak Lich Girl so much that she crossed her arms and took several steps back. Unfortunately, when she wanted to escape, she was pulled back.
Seeing this, Darkness couldn’t help but shout, “Me! I can do it too…! Take me with you! How can this happen without me? So, so… take me with you! No matter if I’m teased, humiliated, or bullied… you can do anything to me! There’s no reason. As a Crusader, I hate to see others suffer the most. So, so… no matter what it is, just come on! I’ll accept it all!”
"...Get out of my way."
"Hmm!!!?"
After being scolded by Xiaolin, Darkness immediately blushed, squatted on the ground with her hands on her chest, and groaned breathlessly.
This guy obviously misunderstood something.
Kobayashi had to state that, although his words might be ambiguous, he would never let Wiz do that. It was right to use his body to make money, but that was not the right method... In addition, Vanir had obviously seen through it. This Duke of Hell, who could see into the future, obviously knew Kobayashi's way of making money, so he did not stop him.
As a close friend of Wiz, how could she really let the other party do such a thing? That's why she cooperated with Kobayashi and agreed to this method. The ambiguous words were just to scare Wiz and let her learn a lesson.
This guy said he would not tolerate it any longer, but in reality he still had this attitude. Surprisingly, he said one thing and acted another...
The job for Wiz to do is, of course,
In the Adventurer's Guild.
Xiaolin and Vanir were shouting in front of the bar, "Come on, come on, come and purify your tired soul because of the hard life! Gentleman over there, please line up properly and don't cut in line! Of course, if you want to cut in line, you will be charged three times more!"
"Three times... just three times, and it puts me in the front!"
The adventurers shouted.
They all hoped to be in the front of the line, and the scene was a little chaotic. However, after Kobayashi said he was joking and Vanir calmed down the restless adventurers, they lined up obediently again.
Afterwards, Vanir looked at the line that stretched from the front of the bar to the backstage, and then from the backstage to the street in front of the Adventurer's Guild. He couldn't help but complain, "All the male adventurers in Axel are lining up..."
"Haha, that's only natural. After all—"
"Come to think of it, it's [Lying on your thighs and cleaning your ears], as long as you think about this, you will show extraordinary power."
Kobayashi was a little unhappy when he was interrupted so suddenly. It was obviously a good opportunity for him to show off, but he was also satisfied to receive praise from the Grand Duke of Hell.
That's right!
The job that made Wiz sell her body to make money was not like the dream given in the succubus shop, but to pick her ears! Because Wiz's body was cold and comfortable, and her personality was extremely gentle and tolerant, almost the same as a mother - a mature woman.
It is said that men are always children who never grow up. When they are tired of work and suffer from various difficulties in life, they always need someone to comfort their wounded hearts, that is, women like Wiz, to comfort them! This is why Wiz is so popular in Axel.
