Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

"Mother!!! What are you saying??!! Are you leaving me??!!" Mia was in despair when she heard her mother telling Liu Yang to take her.

"My dear daughter, listen to your mom. I cannot accompany you forever, one day, I will have to leave. But I didn't expect that day to be so soon. "The woman sighed after talking about it.

"Mom, why are you saying that ?? You are still very young !! "

"My dear daughter, my situation is not very good. I can die at any time "

"Mrs, you are a little mistaken about this. You are not close to dying" Liu Yang intervened.

"Sir, what do you mean? Am I not dying? How did I stay that way? " The woman had doubts about Liu Yang's words. She didn't understand why he spoke those words. The woman knew the condition of her body better than anyone.

"Mrs, you need to know that you are poisoned. If it weren't for that, you would be healthy like everyone else "

"Sir, you ..." The words shocked the woman. She never thought that Liu Yang could see through her.

"Mom, did you know that you were poisoned? Why did you never tell me that? And why did you give me that? That could keep you alive !! " Mia did not believe that her mother delivered an item that may have saved her life.

"Mia, I didn't want others to hurt you if they knew that I have valuable magic equipment. You better have that than I do "

"Mother…"

"Don't say anything else ... Sir, did you see my situation?"

"Yes, I saw it through your problem. But now the question is, how did you get poisoned? " Liu Yang did not know the origin of the poison, he only knew that the poison was powerful and could suck someone's vitality.

"A few years ago, I was approached by a stranger, whom I have never seen before. That person said it was sent by someone who wanted something called the Silver Star. I didn't know what that item was.

This person poisoned and tortured me for several days in a row, after discovering that I really didn't know anything. He left, but the poison is still in my body today "The woman shivered as she remembered the torture she suffered because of the poison and the envoy.

"Silver Star?" Liu Yang has never heard of this magical equipment.

"I don't know what that item is. That person just said that it is magic equipment, but I never heard of that item and I don't have any magic equipment in my possession. The magic equipment that is with my daughter is called the Energy Supply.

This equipment is like an energy box when the user is tired, the box will send energy to the user. The equipment does just that, there's no way it can be the Silver Star, even the envoy saw that it wasn't what he was looking for"

"I see…"

(It seems that this mother and daughter duo have not yet figured out where that Silver Star is. If I help them, I will have a lot of problems. But I cannot ignore someone with so much potential to be a magician. That would be considered a crime, to abandon someone like that girl) Liu Yang thought. He saw that the girl had a very powerful innate talent for a mage. But no one knew why she was sealed by something.

"Mom ... Why didn't you tell me that?" Mia was shocked and very sad when she heard her mother's revelations. She never thought it had happened to her mother.

"Mia, I didn't want to worry about you. Besides, the other side was too powerful, they can kill us anytime"

"Uncle, can you help my mom? I do anything. I may still be young, but after four years, I will be eighteen. I can become your maid or slave for life when that day comes. "Mia knelt and pleaded with Liu Yang. She was desperate to want to save her mother. That desire became even stronger after she heard the sufferings that her mother went through before.

"Mia, you don't have to do this. Sir, you don't have to save me. I just ask that you take her away from here. "Mia's mother was startled when she saw her daughter's actions. She didn't want Mia to become someone else's slave.

"Girl, are you serious about what you're talking about?" Liu Yang thought about a few things before asking his question. This was a good opportunity to do some things.

"Miaaa !!!" The woman tried to stop her daughter from doing this madness. But it was impossible, her daughter had already made up her mind.

"Uncle, I'm serious. When I'm eighteen, you can make me yours or anything you want, "Mia said solemnly. She had decided to do everything to save her mother. She was the only relative she had in the world, Mia didn't want to be alone.

"Let's go to the hotel first. It is better to talk there than inside this dirty place "Liu Yang prepared to leave.

"Uncle, won't you help my mom?" Mia tried to lift her mother out of bed.

"Girl, you need to carry your mother to the hotel where I am staying. You also need to show that you want to heal your mother, "Liu Yang said defiantly.

"I will do this. I want to heal my mom "Mia lifted her mom and placed her on her back. Mia started carrying her mother.

"Mia, you don't have to do this. You still have a long life ahead of you "

"Mom, you can still be saved. You are also very young. " Mia clenched her teeth if she carried her mother.

If it were earlier, she would have an easier time carrying her mother, since she was thinner. Now, after emergency treatment, the woman gained a little weight and became heavier, which made it difficult for Mia to carry her mother.

"Uncle, where are you staying?" Mia was holding on to stand.

"Follow me" Liu Yang left the hut while Mia followed close by. The spies followed the group from afar, they were surprised to see the three leaves.

The three caught the attention of passersby in the streets, they started looking at Liu Yang with curious looks. Neither of them knew why he took the two women.

All the way, Mia made no sound, she just clenched her teeth and carry her mother.

(What is happening to me? Why does my strength never run out? Could it be the Energy Supply?) Mia was shocked to find that she was holding out so long carrying her mother. She imagined that her magical artifact was giving energy to her keep walking.

Whenever Mia was about to fall and run out of energy, the magical artifact gave her more power and energy to keep walking.

(It seems that the girl does not yet know her own strength. I will have to force her to awaken her powers so that she can train and protect herself, but for that, I need to break the seal first.) Liu Yang had already noticed the peculiarities of the two magic equipment that Mia had. The other equipment was elsewhere.

The group walked for almost an hour before reaching the hotel. The local employees did not stop Liu Yang and let him pass along with Mia and her mother.

…

"Uncle, do you live there?" Mia was surprised when she saw the hotel room. The place was much bigger than her small hut.

"Girl, can you put your mom to bed"

"Uncle, where are you going to sleep?"

"You two can sleep in the bed. I will resolve some issues first. You can take a shower, you two stink a lot "Liu Yang left the room.

"Mom, do you want help?"

"Yes."

The mother and daughter pair went to the bathroom to bathe. This was the first time that Mia had seen so much luxury in her life, a bathtub, hot water, soap, shampoo and many other things to use.

…

"Hello, is it from the reception? Can you bring me women's clothes for a teenager and an adult? If possible, can you also call the Commerce in General store and order some herbs for me? I want Purifying Herb, Green Herbs and Red Herbs. I want you to put these things on my bills. I'll pay when the items are delivered, okay? I thank you for your help "Liu Yang took out a cell phone and called the reception. He asked the hotel employees for a few things.

The employees were able to see the size of Mia and her mother, they took the measurements mentally and ordered to buy good quality clothes for the two women.

Liu Yang stood outside the room waiting to deliver the items he ordered.

Some minutes later…

"Sir, here are the items you ordered. You can check to see if everything is right "A maid dressed in short, revealing clothes appeared.

Instead of saying maid clothes, it was easier to say bikini with a transparent skirt. Except for the woman's private parts, the rest could be seen as if she were not wearing any clothes.

"I thank you for that. This is the payment and this is the tip "Liu Yang paid for the items and even tipped the maid kindly.

"I thank you for that" The maid bowed. Upon leaving, she turned and showed each part of her body for Liu Yang to look at. The maid felt his hot gaze when she appeared.

Liu Yang's tip more than the salary she earned in a month's work.

…

"Are you done yet?" Liu Yang entered the room. But he saw no one and heard sounds of water falling on the floor.

(It looks like they're still taking a shower. I better make preparations first)
