Chapter 8 Defeating Magic with Magic

Siris hugged her knees and sat in a corner, curled up all night, making the expensive big bed in the guest room a decoration.

System: Don't you want to go to bed?
Sirius: No, I have to be ready for emergencies.

Having said that, the system read nervousness and anxiety.

It was only then that it realized that although Siris was acting with ease, she was always afraid.

After all, she is just a dead house.

The small rental house is her only home that is worthy of peace of mind. Now that she suddenly faces a brand new world, she must have been forcing herself all the time!
System: You are amazing. At the beginning, my processor calculated that you had an 88% chance of giving up, but the facts proved me wrong.I was surprised and admired.

Sirius: Really?But there is no need to admire it, I just want to go back and save my computer hard drive from social death, nothing special.

The mouth is not the heart.

The system is so judgmental, it understands Siris' real reason.

But it's not debunked.

System: I was specially made to serve you.

Siris was very surprised: Really?
System: Yes.

Siris said gratefully: Thank you so much, I have no skills, and there are very few people who can do anything for me.

System: No, I'm not saying this to thank you, but to prove it.Prove that we are in this together, we will go through risks and setbacks together, so you can share more pressure with me.

Siris was silent for a while: ...I will, but give me some time, okay?

System: As you wish, I look forward to that day.

Trust cannot be established immediately, and it is even more difficult to gain the trust of a dead house.It is precisely because they no longer trust anyone that dead houses choose to close their hearts and immerse themselves in the virtual world.

So Siris chose to make friends with Auba on behalf of her interests.

"Miss Siris, are you awake? I'm sorry to disturb you so early, but I think a delicious breakfast can represent my apology." Obady's voice sounded at the door.

Siris opened her eyes, and the nervousness and cowardice suddenly disappeared, replaced by firmness and determination.

She has a reason to succeed, and she has a reason to go back.

So, fight!
Siris stood up and appeared at the stairs on the second floor.

This is the advantage of curling up for a night. You don’t need to wear armor if you don’t take off your armor. Siris must maintain a mysterious character design, because this will give her a chance to fool an old capitalist.

Now, from Obaday's eager and excited eyes, Siris knew that she had succeeded.

[Repairing the Light Powder] has successfully conquered Obadai and aroused his greed.

And once a person has a desire, his reason will be vulnerable.

The corner of Siris's mouth turned up slightly, and she turned over with her hands on the railing, and her silver-white figure fell like a cat. Although she was wearing heavy armor, did she make any sound when it landed!
Obaday was dumbfounded again.

And Siris took the food bag in his hand blankly.

This was her intention. She once again deliberately emphasized her own uniqueness in order to increase the value of [Repair Light Powder].

Sure enough, after Obadai was surprised, the greed in his eyes became more violent, like a raging flame, which could no longer be extinguished.

Satisfied, Siris opened the food bag and began to feast.

As for the matter of jumping down from the second floor, it was because she was wearing the 【Silver Cat Ring】.

[Silver Cat Ring]: A silver ring made in the image of a leaping cat, it will not be harmed at all when it falls.

In the era of the gods, or in other words, the era when the gods still had influence, it was said that there was an old cat who could speak human language, and it was a phantom-like undead cat with the voice of an old woman.

"Miss Siris." Obaday leaned forward, placed the empty bag containing [Repair Lightening Powder] on the house table, and asked urgently, "Do you still have this thing?"

While eating the cheese beef burger, Siris took out another bag of [Repair Lightening Powder] from behind.

Obadai was overjoyed, and quickly reached out to grab it, but Siris raised her hand and avoided it.

"Uh..." Opadry was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Can you give it to me? I really need it. You see, I bought today's breakfast..." After finishing speaking, the old capitalist pointed Pointing to the food bag, then pointing to 【Repair Gloss Powder】.

Although the language is poor, Siris certainly understands such a straightforward action. Opadi is planning to exchange food for light powder, and deceive himself like a fool!
Siris sighed in her heart, although I was lying to you, how could you lie to me?Engage in traditional arts, treat me as an Indian, and exchange my gems and gold with glass balls, right?Sorry, you're the Indian!

Facing Obaday's trade request, Ciri shook his head and refused without hesitation.

She put the [Repair Lightening Powder] on the table, and put the food bag beside it, then stretched out her palm, turned it back and forth ten times, and shook her head seriously.

Obadai is also a human being, and he saw what Siris meant.

He tentatively asked: "You mean, the value of a bag of light powder is higher than that of food, and you need to exchange 10 food bags?"

Siris didn't understand and didn't say a word, but the meaning was very clear, that is: the value is not equal, no exchange.

Obaday frowned, not understanding why yesterday he could exchange a table of food for a bag of light powder, but today he suddenly couldn't exchange a bag of food. Siris probably didn't know the price difference.

But these are not the key points. If Obaday can't figure it out, he won't think about it. The key point now is how to reach a deal and get new fans.

"Then..." Auba pointed to the glossy powder on the table, then dipped his finger in water and wrote an equal sign on the table, followed by a question mark, "What kind of price are you willing to pay?" Sell ​​me the light powder?"

Siris understood the meaning, stood up and took a financial magazine from the coffee table in the living room, and placed it on the right side of the equal sign, replacing the question mark.

Opadry was a little surprised.

Because he knew that Siris definitely didn't want to change this financial magazine, but meant something else.

But what will it be?

Obadi thought hard.

The content of the magazine was not important, but what it represented, but he didn't think Siris would be interested in the financial concepts in it, so what would it be?

and many more!

Although the magazine is not authoritative and rigorous enough, it is still a kind of book, so what Siris wants is not the magazine, but the knowledge recorded in the book?

Obaday looked at Siris, and the other party was looking at the LOGO on the food bag with curious eyes, which undoubtedly meant that his guess was correct. Siris was full of curiosity about the world, so she wanted to exchange Yes, it is knowledge!
Tangled, Obaday is very tangled.

Knowledge in modern society is not valuable, and some basic theories can be found on the Internet.It stands to reason that exchanging such a cheap product for the precious [Repair Lightening Powder] is an extremely cost-effective deal, but Obaday is struggling.

It wasn't that he was stingy to such an extent, but that he was afraid that Siris would be out of his control after she acquired basic common sense.

What if she teamed up with someone else?What if she knew he was using her?
These consequences are risks that cannot be ignored.

And Obadai still has a bigger worry, that is the "different world" behind Siris.

Was it an accident that the other party traveled so far, or was it premeditated?Is it with a peaceful heart, or with ulterior motives?

If it is the latter, then Siris has mastered the knowledge of this world, and then swept over with the army of another world, wouldn't she become a traitor and a sinner through the ages?
Thinking of this, Obadai couldn't help shivering, his back was already wet with sweat before he knew it.

He looked at the transaction on the table with lingering fear, terrified of the worst possibility.

Finally, he had a decision.

He must not... let go of this transaction! ! !
That's right, if you are raped, you should be raped. At worst, you should surrender yourself when the army from another world comes. They must also need the help of some aborigines to maintain order, and the person who has the closest relationship with Miss Siris is undoubtedly the most good choice.

As for the safety of the 70 billion people, the continuation of human civilization... What are you doing?
That's something heroes should worry about, and I'm just a poor capitalist!

Besides, I survived, isn't it also the continuation of human civilization?I am not only innocent, but also meritorious!

So, done it!

Obaday didn't have any psychological burden at all, and showed his talents as a villain to the fullest.

"I will bring the books soon. Let's read some dictionaries first, and then I will find some other books for you after you master the characters and read them proficiently." Obaday quickly entered the role of adulterer, He began to put himself in Siris's shoes.

Siris didn't understand, but she also saw that Obaday accepted the deal.So she took out 10 bags of [Repair Lightening Powder] that she had prepared a long time ago and put them on the table as a reward for this time.

Opadry was shocked. He had no idea that knowledge could be so valuable.

Thinking he had taken advantage of it, he was afraid that Siris would regret it, and while thanking her, he flew away. Before leaving, he promised again and again that the "book" would be delivered soon.

Sure enough, after only half an hour, he went back and forth, put down an English dictionary and ran away again.

Siris began to turn the pages of the book. Although she had a little background, pure English still made it extremely difficult for her to read.

System: Let me help you.I can correct your pronunciation and also show you the correct grammar.

Siris said unexpectedly: Isn't the novice period already over?
System: After the novice period, I can't provide you with translation services, but it doesn't prohibit me from giving you language guidance.

Siris: Hehe, I really hit the spot, you are really a persuasion system.

One person, one system begins teaching.

Siris learned very painfully, but she was very serious and worked hard. Most importantly, she never gave up.

The system knows that she is working hard for a goal that must be achieved.

System: [Repair Lighting Powder] is used to trade souls, right? Sending ten copies of [Repair Lighting Powder] to Opadi for a dictionary, is that really good?

During the learning gap, the system asked.

Siris: This is not a gift, but a trap.Just like Krypton Gold mobile games will always have dozens of free draws, to put it nicely is called cultivating user stickiness, and to put it bluntly is called building addiction.Western merchants in the [-]th century also distributed "Hibiscus Ointment" for free at the beginning, and then cultivated a huge consumer base, and I just followed suit.

System: Although I have heard the conclusion that "human beings are best at harming their own kind", I still want to say that your actions are very shameless.

Siris: Only magic can defeat magic, and only capitalists can defeat capitalists.

System: What do you mean?
Siris: Yes, I am indeed shameless.
