Oops, I became the witch's substitute

However, the family has not noticed the changes in the intelligence base so far, so this hat trick may continue.

……

"It's a bit strange, but I can't tell what's strange. My elder sister and Fili seem to have a very good relationship, but they also seem to not care about each other. Do they usually communicate with each other? Ah! Could it be that this is the so-called cold war period in a relationship?" In Scathach's room, the little dragon rolled from side to side holding the pillow, her mind full of Fili's affairs.

The moment when Scathach was seriously injured and in trouble, healed by the strange witch and held in her arms was deeply rooted in her heart. She felt that she would never forget it for the rest of her life, and even developed a despicable emotion like "possessiveness".

Scathach sometimes resented and sometimes shook her head fiercely to reflect: "And then there was Sister Serena. I thought she was just helping out, but she has been surrounding Sister Fili recently and taking away my space... No, no, Sister Fili is so pretty and beautiful that she doesn't belong to just one person. More people should understand Sister Fili's charm."

Finally, Scathach lay on her side on the bed, stretched out her legs and rubbed them back and forth on the pillow: "But it's so annoying, I really want to stay with Sister Fili all day long, even if it's just to listen to her preaching all day long. Sister Fili's body is soft and fragrant, I really want to hug her all the time."

After thinking for a while, Scathach became depressed again.

Scathach had no accurate idea of ​​the future. Ever since she was sold by her parents, she had been kept in a cage, with her blood frequently drawn for research, until her consciousness became blurred and she seemed to have turned into some kind of monster.

I thought this would be a nightmare, but the end of the dream was Sister Fili, which made Scathach feel the warmth of being redeemed.

She was originally a child with nowhere to go, but now she seemed to have relatives.

"No, I have to be more proactive. I want to become an obedient and sensible child in Sister Fili's eyes. Hey, it's Sister Fili!"

While thinking, footsteps were heard outside the door. Fili and Serena came back from their walk.

Serena was carrying a lot of snacks in her hands: "We brought you some food."

Fili waved the barbecue with a smile: "It's quite fresh to eat it occasionally. Come on Scathach, let's have some midnight snack while it's hot."

Scathach hugged Fili and replenished her energy before having a midnight snack.

It was so late, and Feilin was the only one busy sorting out the accounts. He worked at his desk and couldn't help but hold his head in his hands: "I want to join in, too..."

Fortunately, he still had a sense of presence. After returning to the house, Serena knocked on Filin's room and said, "Manager, we bought some midnight snacks outside tonight. I left your portion at the door."

Well, it’s not that lonely. Filin’s mood is somewhat comforted. Let’s play the role of Fili tomorrow.

……

A week later, Irene and Charlotte returned to the inn. They also brought different news, but more of them were surprises for Fili.

Irene chirped like a sparrow: "You are too much of a man of action. You go out on the first day, defeat the witch on the second day, and come back on the third day. You will make us look stupid."

Fili blinked: "Really?"

Irene spoke faster: "Of course. I arrived at the southern village slowly, rested for a day, walked around for a day, and was just about to ask around to see if there were any missing persons when I heard that you had captured the suspect. The whole process was smooth and it seemed like you never stopped. Aren't you afraid of working yourself to death?"

Fili curled her hair and felt that she was just being efficient: "Of course, when it comes to matters concerning human lives, the faster the better."

Charlotte bit her lollipop silently, looked at Fili and then at Charlotte: "Actually, Irene is a physical idiot. Her butt hurts when she rides a horse, her waist hurts when she rides in a carriage, and she finds it troublesome to fly by herself. She will be distracted by other things during the journey, and often takes a day's journey into three days."

Erin waved her little fists, "Who's the physical idiot? You dessert freak!"

Charlotte dodged left and right and came behind Fili. Fili helped to block, and then Irene kept hitting Fili's chest.

Fili had no choice but to act as a peacemaker: "Okay, okay, stop making trouble. So what did you gain from the investigation?"

Irene snorted. "Listen carefully. I'll only say this once. There are no missing people in the southern villages, but there is one suspicious thing. It is said that a wealthy businessman came to the village not long ago and promised to hire maids with high salaries. He attracted many women to work there, but I couldn't find any news about this businessman. The women who went there to work also disappeared. Their families thought their daughters had applied for maids."

Charlotte raised her finger. "It's a very clever trick. If the girls suddenly disappear, no one will notice for a year or two. Even if they are asked about their whereabouts, they will say they went to work."

Irene sat down to drink tea again: "Maybe if we catch the so-called rich businessman, we can find the truth. What about you, Charlotte?"

Charlotte slowly crushed the candy, swallowed it, and then drank a sip of black tea. "I asked many witches, but didn't find any suspicious outsiders. Most of their movements were traceable. I also exchanged information with witches who were also investigating this matter. There was nothing suspicious. By the way, the interrogation of the witch that Fili caught was also completed. She accepted someone else's commission and had to wander around in a specific place. She was just a bait."

Fili sighed, thinking that if it was just a bait, it would not be very valuable. "But this guy is too ruthless. He suddenly launched a fatal attack and did not care about ordinary people when fighting. He is an unsettling factor."

Charlotte glanced at Irene, then slowly said, "In fact, most people are like this."

Irene got angry again: "Then don't look at me! I'm already very careful!"

Fili chuckled. Actually, this was related to the overall environment. The main focus of the world was hunting star beasts, and most people's attack magic pursued high damage and a large range. As a result, ordinary battles became about throwing range magic at each other. It was a fight between gods and the suffering of mortals.

Charlotte raised her finger. "Since this witch has not committed any serious crimes, Hecate has decided to banish her from the country for five years. That's it."

Irene was a little frustrated: "In the end, we are back to square one. This murderer is quite cunning!"

Fili raised her hand and said, "No, we haven't returned to the starting point. At least we know her approximate location, and she also knows that we have taken action. Now is the time for cat and mouse. Okay, let's go and ask other witches for help."

Irene said it was difficult: "Don't count on others, everyone is lazy and doesn't want to cause any trouble."

Fili shook her head: "I don't need their help. Well, I need more familiars to act as spies."

The witches have many small animal familiars, and Fili plans to use these small animals to search the forests and mountains for the conspicuous carriage of the wealthy businessman.

However, one thing is true, most witches are homebodies, they live scattered in the forest. Even Irene and Charlotte cannot know the location of all the witches, so they go to find Hecate and ask her for help.

When Hecate saw that it was serious business, she decided to do it. She immediately started writing letters and asked owls to take them to witches from all over the place, asking them to help. Of course, in the end, this group of witches did not come, but many of their servants did come.

For a moment, Fili was surrounded by cats and dogs. The witch's servants ranged from mice and squirrels to white-faced owls and seagulls. Fili was afraid that these servants would start a fight first.

Of course, as an excellent magician, Fili had also learned the skills of animal affinity, so she actively released her charm and carried snacks with her. She quickly coaxed these familiars, and then arranged tasks one by one to find the rich businessman's carriage.

"Can these little animals really find the carriage?" Serena was a little depressed today because there was no place for her next to Fili.

All kinds of deer and roe deer were gathering around Fili, and there were even a few black phoenixes on her head and shoulders. She had definitely changed her job from a witch to a druid.

With so many familiars running back and forth in the inn, it was impossible to do business, and we had to control Fili to pretend to be angry and drive everyone out.

Because there are more and more small animals, the abnormal phenomenon makes the neighbors feel the presence of the witch again.

"Don't underestimate the familiars. They are the eyes of the witch. They can understand human language and discern reality. Let them act as eyes and ears, and our search efficiency can be greatly improved."

"Gah—found it—Gah—"

Before seeing the results, Serena was still worried. She believed what Fili said, but the little animals seemed a little unreliable.

300 million Baba with 400 million three rescue

Fortunately, after a while, a raven flew over, flapping its wings and reporting the whereabouts of the carriage.

A few hours later, Fili and Selena found the rich businessman's carriage in the ravine on the side of the mountain, and also found the girls' luggage in the carriage. They were sure that this was the murderer who abducted the girls.

As usual, Fili took dust from her pocket and blew it around to show the location of the footprints.

But this time it was not smooth. As soon as the search dust was spread, a ball of red flame emerged from the ground, and several ferocious fire dogs appeared, roaring and rushing towards Fili.

Chapter 35 Training

Fili's tracking magic triggered the trap, transforming into several ferocious fire dogs that pounced on them.

"Be careful! Fili!" Selena immediately stepped forward with her shield, wanting to protect Fili.

Fili also took action. It seemed that she raised her hands slowly. The fire dogs had already pounced in front of her, but they instinctively sensed the danger and were about to launch an attack when magic daggers that came from nowhere instantly pierced them. Then Fili pulled the thin wire, and the two magic daggers retreated flexibly like pets and were put into Fili's sleeves.

Serena couldn't help but admire the elegant and beautiful fighting skills, which were definitely tailor-made for Fili.

"That's amazing! I didn't even see how you did it." Serena drew her sword, glanced around, and got into a defensive posture.

"You are also very good, Serena. There are very few people of your age who can reach your level." Fili praised sincerely.

Except my home.

Fili secretly added in her heart that those relatives in the family who were unable to be promoted to the Transcendent at the age of 20 were unqualified products, so most people were training desperately. However, counterintuitively, those who were promoted early had their potential drained and could only stay at that stage for almost a hundred years.

This is no longer a family, it is Morgana's center for forcing things to grow faster.

Serena walked to the carriage and used her sword to pry open the curtains. Of course, there was nothing inside. "Are these traps? It seems that the murderer wants to cover up the clues...but something doesn't feel right."

Fili continued, "That's not right. Summoning fire creatures is not considered advanced magic. Moreover, the murderer had enough time to remove the evidence, but he still left a carriage like this. It's as if he did it on purpose."

Serena murmured, "Intentionally? Yes, like luring and ambushing."

Fili heard her words and thought that this was indeed possible: "Kidnapped girls everywhere and spread dragon beasts. Could the real purpose be to lure out the witch? Forget it, I'll do some research first."

Fili became much more careful next. She checked the surroundings first, and then disarmed four magic traps before she began to sprinkle magic dust and activate the magic of the Dust of Time to trace back what happened at the scene.

The phantom formed by magic power showed that when the carriage just arrived here, a group of girls got off. Their conditions were not right. They walked like zombies and walked straight into the forest.

Fili tried to find their traces, but unfortunately all the places a little further away had been cleared out. The murderer must have left the carriage behind on purpose.

"I don't know where the girls were taken. I can only ask the servants to continue searching in this direction." Fili whistled, and a raven and countless birds fell from the sky. They quickly stood on Fili's arms, shoulders, and head. The remaining ones that could not stand also desperately looked for places on Fili's body to crawl on.

In short, Fili asked them to investigate in the direction of the girl's disappearance and arranged the tasks. The familiars dispersed, leaving Fili with a head full of feathers.

Serena walked over slowly, picked up the feathers on Fili's head with a smile, and said that she envied Fili for being so popular with the animals.

Please ask other witches' familiars to do the work. These familiars are too disrespectful. They want food when they do some work, and most importantly, they like to stick to Fili.

Why are you clinging to me? Hasn't your master learned magic from natural sciences to feed you with magic power? Fili felt a little resentful, but she still took good care of the familiars, and thought that she should tame some familiars herself.

Wait, a familiar is a witch's assistant, helping her with chores.

"So Fili's familiar is Fililin?" Fili was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. What was going on?

While the familiars were out investigating, Fili temporarily returned to the inn to rest, restore Fili's condition, and then focus on teaching Scathach.

Temporarily getting rid of the familiar, Scathach and Serena, and the sense of superiority brought by the witch, Filin felt a little calmer.

"I rarely return to my original self now, so it's more natural for me to be like this." Now that almost all of his abilities have been used by Fili, his original body has lost too many skills. Since he is not an ordinary person, he has to show some performance.

For example, you can pick up any object and use it as a weapon. Yes, it has all kinds of skills. This is Jackie Chan and the furniture city.

Now most of the hotel's facilities have been built in an orderly manner, and the new sewage system and rooms are being renovated one by one. It will be able to operate normally after a while. Next, it's time to consider Fili's workshop.

How can a qualified witch not have her own workshop? In addition to completing Fili's workshop, Fili will also do her own research.

I've been away from the family for almost half a year. I've been a little lazy in the past half year. I've given myself a half-year break... Besides, playing Fili is tiring, isn't it? It's very hard to act and wear a skirt!

After working hard for half a year, he finally managed to defraud funds from the family. Adding on the money sent by Selena's family, Filin has been living a rich life. If he wants, he can even subsidize the intelligence base. That's right, if the family has a special envoy coming on a business trip, Filin just needs to spend money, entertain the envoy well and let him go around in a daze and go back.

In addition, Filin began to meditate at night.

Feilin's generation of relatives can be said to be the most well-behaved in the family. Perhaps because they have learned too many lessons from the past, their brothers and sisters have all learned how to endure.

Some people put their strengths on display, like the eldest brother, who strives to be the best, pretending to be an obedient dog of his despicable father, and obtains resources to improve himself; some people are wavering, pretending to try hard to keep up, like my younger sister, who is in the middle every year and seems to have neither outstanding nor weak abilities, and this is the case with the majority; only Feilin pretends to be very weak, and only he can pretend like this, but in fact he is very cool, and was finally exiled to the frontier, where he had room to move freely.

"My path is deception. At first, I thought illusion was to deceive the eyes and senses. At that time, I had just completed my apprenticeship training. Later, I understood that deception was acting, deceiving others, and distorting the truth with lies. At that time, I was promoted to a transcendent. Later, I realized that deception was to deceive oneself, to tell lies that even oneself believed in, to make (the enemy believe) that time and space were inconsistent. Now I have even created a recognized witch. This is the power of a hero. It's quite simple. So what's next..."

Qianxun 1①13⑧㈣㈨

Fili flipped open the history book she had recently bought, which recorded all the famous and powerful people in the history of magic. In this book, rulers were everywhere and there were as many deities as dogs, but most of them existed in history and legends, and there were even fabricated unofficial histories. After reading them, Fili found that many of them were fictional stories.

Dong! Ring-dong-dong-dong

The knocking sound was divided into three parts. The first knock was very loud, followed by the sound of a bell, and then several very peaceful knocks.

"Who?" Filin asked knowingly. While he was thinking just now, he also manipulated Scathach to educate her. Now Scathach was showing that she had reflected on herself.

Scathach was like a deflated ball. She couldn't stand being controlled: "It's me, it's me, Scathach..."

Feilin then said, "Please come in."

Scathach then opened the door and brought a plate of fruit to Filin. At this moment, she was carrying all the equipment she used for practice and walked carefully, so that the bell did not make any sound.

Feilin just felt a little satisfied. After teaching her for a month, the child finally learned to walk without making any noise.

"It seems that your training has made progress." Filin looked at Scathach and found that she had begun to master the technique of using force. Her brute force would be too lethal if it was not restrained like this.

Scathach was very honest at this moment: "Well, thank you for your hard work, Sister Fili... and you, Brother Felix."

Feilin certainly knew why: "How was it? Did Feili bully you?"

Scathach curled her lips and said, "I was caught and lectured by my sister, and I realized my mistake. I'm sorry... I have caused you trouble during this period... Do you want an apple? I'll peel it for you."

Filin held back her laughter. The reason why Scathach was so obedient was because she had controlled Fili and caught her today to give her a good lesson for the whole day. She had been teaching her etiquette since morning and even took Serena to demonstrate.

After all, Serena was the daughter of a noble family. She had never missed any etiquette courses and had good physical fitness. She understood all the training content that Fili required.

Then, Fili mentioned ballroom dancing. During this process, Scathach could only watch Fili and Serena dance, and she could not intervene at all.

So Scathach was very frustrated: "Brother Filin, I was too willful before, but, maybe I'm really not good at aristocratic education..."

Felyn stood up slowly, walked to the bookshelf, and picked up books on etiquette courses: "Scathach, you still don't understand. We are not instilling aristocratic education in you, but teaching you how to survive in the future. All good things must come to an end. In the future, Felix, Serena, and I will all be gone, and you must have the ability to survive on your own, do you understand?"
