Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 13

Licia's steps were fast. She was wearing a brown satin skirt today. Although there was an exaggerated bow on the back, since she didn't use panniers, as long as she lifted the skirt, she could walk without being affected at all.

"Dorado Wine Store." She took a look at the terrain, and speculated that there should be a door in the wine store that can directly lead to Lanlan Street.

"Hello, ma'am." Three shop assistants immediately surrounded her, and Licia saw a familiar figure beside her who was also picking out drinks. It was the Duke of Troy.

"Help me pack thirteen gifts that are easy to take away." Lycia hurriedly walked directly towards the door that opened towards the Lane Street, "I'll come and get them in an hour."

Troy raised his head at this moment, just in time to see a figure running towards the door. 'noble?Miss noble go to the next block? '

Licia ran amok on Lanlan Street for a while before stopping. Due to the proximity to the upper block, the law and order on Lanlan Street is very good, and everyone is in order.

But even so, the appearance of a noble lady is still very eye-catching.

Licia pretended to have seen the world, and slowed down on the road.

It was the first time for her to come to a place with such a dense flow of people, and she felt a little suffocated when she saw the dense progress bar.

She thought she was used to having it on everyone's head.

'39, here is number 107, with odd numbers on the right and even numbers on the left. . . . . '

Just as she was counting the numbers to turn, she caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of her eye.

She thought it must be the Duke of Troy, but she was discovered anyway.He saw himself in the liquor store and followed him.

Licia grabbed the skirt with her right hand nervously, thinking about whether to wait until later and deliver things next time she went out.

Now even if he speeds up his pace to get rid of the Duke of Troy, it will arouse his suspicion, and it will also arouse his stronger attention.

Troy really wanted to see what Licia was doing in the lower block alone, and was about to speed up to catch up, but was stopped by a civilian.

He frowned at Yuga. "The groom's son?"

Yuga bowed and saluted. "Good afternoon, my lord, you came to Lan Lan Street alone, do you need to go to the Black Pearl Exchange?"

After Troy heard about the Black Pearl exchange, he immediately forgot about Licia.

"Do you know where the Black Pearl Exchange is this issue?" Troy's eyes were full of distrust, and even he couldn't be sure to find the Black Pearl Exchange every time.

"I happen to know, please come with me." Yuga lowered his eyebrows and led the way.

After turning a street corner again, Licia couldn't help but glance back. There was no Duke of Troy in the empty back street.

Between acting cautiously and acting quickly, Lizia decided to hand over the rags to No. 39's publisher today. She always felt that only when the rags were delivered could her brother He Xu get the help he wanted.

After confirming repeatedly that the Duke of Troy was not following her, Licia stepped into shop No. 39.

It was very dark in here, and only an oil lamp was lit in the deepest place.

Books are stacked on both sides.

But she didn't see anyone, and the wind chime hanging on the door was moved by Licia's intrusion, making a muffled sound.

"Hi!" A clown's head was hanging upside down from the ceiling. Licia took a few steps back in fright, and almost fell to the ground. She held on to the books piled up more than one meter beside her and stood up straight again.

"Is there anything good you can do with Mr. Pudding?!" The clown who was hanging upside down jumped down, with a ferocious expression on his face. There were not many hairs on his head, and the oil paint on his face was very bright in the dim light. terrible.

"Hi, I'm looking for Mr. Flindoner." Licia looked straight at him, and instinctively told Licia that daring to look directly at such a terrifying face was to show contempt for him.

"Oh heh heh heh heh, listen, they are all here to find Flindonna, that hypocrite, trash!" The clown spoke towards Licia, spitting everywhere, and Licia couldn't help but take another step back.

"Budding Kit, get out of here." Just when Licia didn't know how to deal with this monster, a silver sword pierced the clown's stomach.

Licia almost screamed.

The Joker didn't bleed though, he just disappeared like a puff of smoke, with his curses still echoing in the air.

"Sorry, ma'am, did I scare you just now? This is my neighbor, who occasionally comes to help look after the store, and is a bit naughty." Mr. Flindoner is wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the upper arm, and the forearm is covered with tattoos .

He has a beard on his chin, a pipe in his mouth, and a hat on his head.

"He...how did he disappear?" Licia knew that there was a kind of coat of arms called twins, which could create clones, but she didn't quite believe that a nobleman with the power of coat of arms would be willing to live in the lower district.

"He is the illegitimate son of a nobleman, the one with the power of the twin emblems." Flindorna clicked on his hat and spoke with a pipe in his mouth. "Is there anything you need to give me?"

Licia quickly woke herself up from the surprise, took out the rag, and handed it to Fulin Dona.

The other party took the rag, walked to the candle, and looked carefully at the light. "That's right, it's this one. I accept it." Flindoner put the pipe on the table, picked up the crutch beside the table, and hit the ground hard several times. "There is work to do!"

After he finished this set of movements, he found that Licia was still standing there. "What's the matter, ma'am, do you still need to buy some books?"

"Are you responsible for publishing these books?" Because He Xu called him a publisher, not a bookseller.

Felindona obviously didn't expect her to ask such a question. "Yes, of course, there is a sign of Flindorner Publishing House at the door, you can go out and have a look."

"Rui Jin, do you know? Have you ever published his book?" Licia asked, feeling a voice under her feet.

Mr. Flindoner took a draw from the pipe on the table. "I have some books signed by Rui Jin that you have never read. Ten gold coins a book."

Licia's monthly living expenses are 93 gold coins. She roughly estimated that there are still [-] days left in this month, and she still has [-] gold coins left in her hand. The usual expenses are very small, and the gold coins are mainly used for savings. .

"Is there a book about Kaguya Knight among the thirteen black knights?" Licia asked, she originally planned to find a publisher this week to inquire about Ruijin, and by the way, look for news about Kaguya.

Felindorna held up the candle and carefully looked at the noble lady in front of her. No one would want to know the detailed story of the thirteen black knights.

"Of course. However, this book is worth fifty gold coins."

Licia was taken aback, fifty gold coins, although this is not a sky-high price for her, but she is not a person who knows everything, one gold coin can support a commoner's family for two weeks.

"Can it be a little cheaper?" Licia didn't really dare to negotiate the price, from the fact that he directly used the silver sword to drive away the avatar of the heraldry power user, to the sense of oppression he brought to people, and the empty favorability bar above his head. , this is not a man to mess with.

"I never bargain, ma'am." He opened a floor and lifted out a woman about one meter tall. "Hurry up, don't dawdle."

Then Licia saw the woman with the sallow face and messy hair rush out of her legs like a cannonball.

"Uh... Then, can I ask something?" Licia straightened her skirt. "About Ruijin."
