"The fish is on the bait~"

Chapter 52: Score twice

The cold wind of the night stung her skin, and after a slight shiver, Theresia woke up from her coma.

After opening her eyes, the first thing she saw was the boundless starry sky, which reminded her of the night sky of that small town that had long been burned to the ground by flames.

The assassin's face was not allowed to be seen. Theresia, who had already developed the habit of lowering her head, had not looked up for a long time. This feeling made the girl feel nostalgic and anxious.

It would have been a better experience if her hands and feet hadn't been tied up into rice dumplings with ropes and if she hadn't been woken up.

"Miss Theresia, right?"

"Or should I call you Arcanist Killer?"

A calm voice sounded, and Theresia turned her head and saw Linn still sitting in her seat behind the card table, just like when she first arrived.

It's just that the seats opposite the card table were replaced by an angry Historia and a girl with chestnut hair. Of course Theresia also knew that girl, Elena, a first-level arcanist with the phantom attribute, Lin En studied. The last person in the group.

Her sense of existence was too thin. She studied hard and had no bad habits. She was like a model top student. Theresa did not put her on the threat list at all, nor did she expect that she would actually help Lin En deal with it. Own!

"It won't be an illusion again this time, right?"

There was a self-deprecating sneer on Theresia's lips.

Lin En also smiled, and suddenly raised his hand and slapped her.

"you?!"

Theresia's eyes widened slightly in shock.

"I think this can explain your problem and our current situation to you better than words can."

Lin En said calmly, his eyes indifferently locked on the girl in front of him.

"Your... behavior is always unexpected."

There was something in Theresa's words.

In fact, she had long been prepared that this card game was a trap, and she thought she understood the true location of the trap - the humiliation brought by changing into a maid outfit was small, and all the weapons she had hidden would be released at the same time. Therefore, Theresa did not hesitate to take action directly, but what she did not expect was that even her sudden attack was part of the opponent's plan.

There is no doubt that his previous love of playing cards was just an act. From the moment the war was declared, Lin En had already begun to make plans for himself.

Her eyes finally landed on Historia across the card table, and Theresia had to sigh:

"Okay, I lost. I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness's acting skills were so good. Her acting skills and intuition were flawless. The most important thing is that she was willing to take risks for you. , this time I won’t lose unfairly.”

"Maybe you have a personality charm that I haven't discovered yet."

Hearing these words, Historia suddenly blushed and stared at Linn fiercely. Elena lowered her head and held her skirt tightly with both hands, seeming to suppress a smile. Linn also turned her head slightly. go:

"Of course, Your Highness Historia is my best ally, and her wisdom is always as trustworthy as her people."

Historia snorted and said no more.

Theresia sighed and asked:

"What are you going to do with me? Let's agree in advance that the Magic Clock Tower and I are not subordinate, but a cooperative relationship. If you plan to use me in exchange for something with them, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible, because under the influence of those arcane lunatics, In the eyes, once I fail, I will be worthless.”

Elena and Historia also looked at Linn. Although they both actively and passively participated in the plan to capture the killer lady, Linn had not told them how to deal with it after they succeeded. revealed.

After hearing this question, Linn smiled and looked Theresia up and down. That look of indifference and admiration made Theresia subconsciously curl up her legs. He said leisurely:

"Miss Theresia, do you underestimate your own value too much?"

"What do you mean? I don't have to lie to you."

Theresia said coldly, but a bad premonition arose in her heart.

"You misunderstood me,"

Linn smiled softly,

"Of course I know that you and the Magic Clock Tower will not be that close. After all, for you who aim to 'exterminate the forbidden art', the Magic Clock Tower should regard you as an enemy. Your cooperation is even more surprising to me."

"you!"

The surprise in Theresia's eyes couldn't be suppressed at all. She couldn't believe that the man in front of her had revealed her biggest secret so casually.

However, Lin En suddenly changed the subject:

"Do you know how many imperial coins a female arcanist is worth in the hands of slave traders on the black market? Not to mention the added value of a well-known arcanist killer like Miss Theresia. I don't need to say more about it." .”

"Slaves... black market?"

There was a flash of fear in Theresia's eyes. She was a frequent visitor to many black markets, but slave traders were still the ones she least wanted to come into contact with, because in the eyes of such people there was no concept of the same kind, only commodities.

The arcane lunatic in the Magic Clock Tower may have to dissect a person in order to study the root arcana, while the slave trader in the black market will not hesitate to blind the slave's eyes at the customer's request, just because that is more satisfying to the customer. The condition can be sold for more money.

As for Theresia, the arcanist killer who has many enemies, just thinking about the fate that awaits her once she ends up on the black market will make her stomach cramp.

Ordinary noble young masters would not condescend to contact those dirty guys, but Theresa had a feeling that Lynn Norton would!

After all, he can make the Princess of Fire Rose risk her life for him, what else can't he do?

"Hey, Bastard Norton, isn't this different from what you and Elena... told us?"

At this moment, Historia's dissatisfied voice sounded from the side, and Linn's expression immediately changed and he smiled gently: "I'm just kidding, I'm just a student, how could I know such an unruly person?" Woolen cloth?"

He is definitely not joking!

Theresia's heart was pounding.

"Don't worry, Miss Theresia. It's the school's curfew time now. I can't get out of the school at all, so I will send you to the security department of the college. You will be secretly sent to the Shadow Knight's prison. I just happened to I know a few acquaintances there.”

Hearing this, Theresia's expression remained unchanged on the surface, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Although the Shadow Knight's methods were also very cruel, fortunately, the Magic Clock Tower was enough to influence them. Although the two parties were only in a cooperative relationship, for someone like her, If the tools used can be preserved, the Magic Clock Tower will try its best to rescue itself.

"Want us to go with you?"

Elena asked.

"That's not necessary. Xiluwa doesn't want too many people to know about this matter. I hope you can understand."

Elena nodded, she didn't feel comfortable facing the powerful Shadow Knight captain.

She stood up and took Historia's hand:

"Then let's go back first, classmate Lin En."

"Sweet dreams, you two, and Your Highness Historia, I declare that our misunderstanding has been resolved. We are now the best study group partners in the world."

Lynn nodded.

"Really?! Who...who is your best partner!"

Historia turned away dishonestly and pulled Elena away.

Watching the two people leave, Linn did not move in a hurry, but waited quietly on the spot. Theresia couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you going to send me to see the Shadow Knight? What are you waiting for?"

Hearing this question, Linn turned around and smiled again:

"Her Highness Historia's arcane talent is extremely outstanding, so sometimes she doesn't think very well. What about you, Miss Killer, will you also give away the prey you get?"

"What...what do you mean?"

Theresia frowned, feeling a bad premonition arise in her heart.

"meaning is......."

Linn suddenly touched Theresia's face, from her chin to her cheeks, and then to her lips. Then at a certain moment, the gentle movements suddenly became rough, and the familiar pink mist suddenly sprayed out from his palm, directly Entered Theresia's mouth.

No, come again?

Theresia desperately resisted the desire to faint and rolled her eyes, but the feeling of sleepiness still rushed to her brain.

"My house is quite big~"

Before falling into coma again, Theresia heard Lin En say leisurely.

Chapter 53: Still using traditional perpetual motion machines?

Ah, the second time...

If the first time she looked up at the starry sky she felt calm and indifferent, this time she looked up at the ceiling, Thearesia only felt humiliated.

Theresia recognized this arrangement. This was the student dormitory of Eden College. There was no doubt that Linn brought her here while she was unconscious.

"This bastard, what the hell is he trying to do?"

Theresia was completely confused.

If that guy really wants to send himself to the Shadow Knight's prison, he can do it tonight as he said, but if he wants to sell himself to... the black market.

He shouldn't take himself back to his own student dormitory. After all, there are many people here, and the probability of being discovered is also the highest. Maybe he was lucky when he brought himself in, but it may not be the case when he goes out.

There was a strange fragrance filling the air. Just when Theresa was confused, the door in front of her suddenly opened. Lin En walked in holding a piece of steaming fried rice. The strong smell of fried rice immediately covered the air. Those faint aromas.

After seeing her wake up, Lin En even took the initiative to lift the dinner plate in his hand: "Would you like some?"

"roll!"

Theresia spat out the word through her teeth.

Who can guarantee that there is no damn drug in that fried rice? !

[Congratulations on being successfully rejected by the heroine, and gaining experience points: one-half the total magic power of a first-level arcanist! 】

hiss!

Is it so powerful?

Linn couldn't help but fall back tactically.

After arguing with Historia for so many days, the experience bar moved forward by about a quarter. Unexpectedly, Miss Theresia filled up half of it with just one word.

But less than five seconds after he was hard-on, an embarrassing grunt sounded in the closed room.

"Don't say it with your mouth. Are you honest with your body? Miss Killer."

Lynn smiled.

Theresia tilted her head, feeling a little hopeless.

After working as a bartender all night, I didn't have much time to eat, and I had to be dragged by Historia to play cards with Lynn. Although I could endure it mentally, my body was almost at its limit.

"What on earth are you going to do? If you just want to torture and retaliate against me, you can be more direct!"

Theresia said angrily.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Lin En actually chuckled and said:

"Why should I torture you, Miss Theresia? We should be like-minded companions."

"companion?"

Theresia scoffed at this;

"You consider a woman who just a few hours ago wanted to make you splatter with blood as your companion. What's more, is this how you treat your companion?"

"That's just because we still lack understanding. Miss Theresia, what can be squeezed out of my body is not just blood."

Linn shook her finger,

"What's more, your understanding of the word companion is too narrow. It doesn't have to be close to be called a companion. As long as the purpose is the same, it's totally fine even if each other is regarded as an enemy."

"What do you mean?"

Theresia frowned.

"Let me tell you the truth, Miss Theresia, I don't hate you. You are just a killer who gets paid to do things. To put it bluntly, you are just a tool. I will not be stupid enough to argue with you."

Lin En took a deep breath, and his expression gradually became cold:

"I was originally the good-for-nothing second prince of the Purple Flower Empire. I could just look at the black stocking maid and enjoy life every day. But because of the existence of an organization, my great mother had to worry all the time about what her majestic empire would one day do. Being destroyed by a group of arcane madmen, without awakening the dragon blood, the only way for me to avoid being given up is to become a tool that flows with royal blood and masters arcane arts, just to deal with those madmen who don't know when to attack at any time. .”

"I don't hate my mother. As a woman, she was just forced to have no choice. Likewise, I don't hate you, Theresia. I have only one goal, and that is to use you as a tool to make this world a permanent mess. The bastard who is shaking the crisis, the cancer of the world - the Magic Clock Tower, banish it from this world!"

At this moment, Theresia seemed to see this young man who seemed to be wearing many masks take off the mask on his face for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure and sneered:

"You want to destroy my employer, and you say you are my companion?"

Hearing these words, Lin En just narrowed his eyes and looked at her with regret or scrutiny:
