Chapter 395 Witch Assistant
In the port area of Niceburg, Friedrich List stood in front of a two-story building with satisfaction. He looked at the building carefully. This would be where he would work and live in the future.
After a series of ding-dong sounds, a bilingual plaque in Ordo and Horn Bay was hung steadily on the main entrance - "Tod Shipping Company".
After paying the decorators readily, List breathed a sigh of relief. The office entrusted by the boss to him was finally done. In the future, he would be the representative of the shipping company in Horn Bay. Although he would not be able to return to Northwest Bay for a long time, it was considered a "promotion".
The office should always pay attention to the trends of the local market. The merchant ships of Tod Shipping Company were full of goods when they went south from Northwest Bay. After unloading in Horn Bay, they naturally could not return empty. At this time, they had to find out through the office whether there was any business of transporting goods from the south to the north, or purchase profitable goods by themselves and take them back.
As the economic and trade between the two places deepen, I believe that more and more offices will be established by Northwest Bay merchants in the land of Jiaowan.
Just as he was imagining the future, a rag flew out of the second-floor window and landed squarely on his face.
Then a beautiful face popped out from inside, but although it was beautiful, the expression on it was as if Liszt owed her eight million. "Didn't you say you were going to clean up? Why are you being lazy down there alone?"
Liszt smiled bitterly and took the rag off his face, and said hurriedly: "I'm coming, I'll help you right away."
"Humph! You talk as if it's my business!"
"Haha, sorry."
The woman's name is Sevilla Asitini, a newly recruited assistant of Liszt, but she has another identity - a witch with a hidden identity!
It was she who openly ran to the cathedral near Niceburg to declare war on the church more than a month ago, causing quite a stir and greatly damaging the face of the Niceburg church.
However, her real purpose was to lure out the church armed forces guarding the cathedral so that another group of people could sneak in and rescue the imprisoned wizards, and they succeeded, which really slapped the church hard.
But I don’t know whether she was arrogant or had already held the determination to die. After the success, she fainted on the ground. Fortunately, she was well hidden, and the armed personnel of the church hurried back to help after discovering that someone had robbed the prison, so she escaped.
Then she was encountered and "picked up" by Liszt who was hiding and watching the battle in fear.
It was not because of the antidote. After so many days, nothing happened to him. Liszt also guessed that the witch was scaring him at the time. But perhaps it was because of the close contact that night that Liszt always felt that he could not let this woman die without saving her. There was an invisible thing driving him.
Fortunately, he had just rented a new place to live at that time, and there was a hidden place to stay, otherwise it would be a big trouble if he was still in the hotel.
As expected, the church began a full-scale search, checking passers-by in the streets and alleys, and forcibly closed the city and the port. Liszt didn't dare to go out for a few days, and the purification team once again made people all over the city complain.
Fortunately, the new Bishop of Niceburg, Angelo, suppressed the radicals such as the Paladin Vileus, and restored the city order to normal. Rumors were everywhere in the streets and alleys. It was said that there was disagreement and endless quarrels within the church. The leaders of the purification team were dissatisfied with the moderate tendency of the new bishop, but the bishop also had a large number of supporters.
Back to the witch that Liszt picked up, she finally woke up after being in a coma for three consecutive days. After finding out what was going on, she scolded her savior.
"Who asked you to save me! Fool!"
"Don't you know how dangerous it is? Idiot!"
At the end, he said in a sarcastic tone: "Haha, is it because of what happened that day that you think you have any responsibility for me? It turns out that you are still a fledgling, don't be so self-indulgent!"
"Hey, hey! Don't talk nonsense... I'm not... I didn't..." Liszt blushed and fought back resolutely. "I saved you completely because of a simple heart of justice." He defended himself seriously.
However, the other party's tone seemed ungrateful, but in fact it was the regret and worry about implicating innocent people. This also made Liszt know that the witch was a cold-faced person with a warm heart. It seems that he did not save the wrong person.
Later, because of the city closure, the witch stayed under Liszt's persuasion.
"Well... you see, I saved you after all, why don't you stay and help me?"
"What?"
"My boss sent me to this place to set up an office, and I need an assistant who is familiar with local intelligence, but the budget is not much, so I want to find a cheaper one. Why don't you just do it... Just handle some documents in the house every day, anyway, you still have to deal with the inspection of the purification team outside."
"Humph, you are really not afraid of trouble. Well, since you are not afraid, then what can I say, anyway, there is nowhere to go."
But looking at the witch's expression, she probably thinks of herself as a person obsessed with sex.
"Friedrich List, Northwest Bay Todd Shipping Company's representative in Nice, please give me your advice!"
List tried to put on a sincere expression, then stretched out his right hand, and then took it back with a slightly red face.
"Sevilla Ashitini, the witch of Horn Bay, please give me your advice."
The witch finally answered in a normal tone, although it was still lukewarm.
After that, he saw the other party's amazing disguise - it was like a completely different person. No wonder he could lurk in Niceburg for so long and plan the attack on the church without anyone noticing.
Is this magic? It seems not. Perhaps some mundane skills can achieve superb results after being mastered.
After the atmosphere in the city relaxed a little, Liszt began to look for an office location with the help of the "female assistant". With the guidance of local people, it took nearly a week to get the house done.
Then there was the scene at the beginning of this chapter.
Liszt went upstairs and cleaned with the witch named Seville Asitini.
He wiped the glass while making small talk.
"Oh, the weather is so nice today!"
No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!
"..."
"Is the breakfast delicious?"
"..."
"That..."
"If you don't know how to chat, don't chat awkwardly!"
"Uh... sorry."
Liszt turned around with an embarrassed look and wiped the window with all his heart.
After noticing that there was no movement behind him, Sylvia turned back and looked at Liszt speechlessly.
After agreeing to stay, she made up her mind that if this mortal man had any bad intentions towards her, she would definitely make him look bad and make him regret coming to this world.
However, after getting along for a while, this guy didn't seem to have any excessive actions, nor did he make any excessive demands on himself. Except for some clumsy conversations, he just explained the work seriously.
Is it really as he said, "with a simple heart of justice", is there such a thing in the world?
While thinking, there was a noisy sound outside the window, as if a large group of people were shouting something.
Sylvia flashed alertly, let the curtains cover herself, and then quietly looked out to observe.
She glanced at Liszt, who didn't care at all, staring blankly outside.
A large group of people were seen walking through the streets, and more and more people were joining them.
"Angelo! Angelo!"
The people in the parade kept shouting slogans.
Angelo?
Liszt and Sevilla looked at each other. Isn't that the name of the new bishop of Niceburg?
