Master Tongtian

Exquisite windproof crystal lamp set, gorgeous dark red silk curtain wall, soft cashmere carpet, and the faint fragrance floating in the air. Compared with the dirty town that exudes stench, this spacious hotel room is like heaven. Just as wonderful.

This is Rosen's new residence.

He was no stranger to this place, because the previous guest room was next door, and he had already peeked into this paradise through the narrow gap in the wall.

There was not much joy in his heart.

If yesterday he was treated as a slave by Cyrus, then now, due to competition among peers, his treatment has been improved and he has become a caged canary.

No matter the slave or the canary, there is no real freedom. If you want to live well, you must continue to act.

‘Click~’

The door behind her was closed, and Lilith looked at the boy with a 'shocked' expression with a smile, and asked slightly proudly: "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

Rosen looked 'excited' and nodded repeatedly: "I can't believe that I can live in such a wonderful place like heaven. It's incredible!"

To be honest, the layout of this room is indeed quite good. Except for the lack of various modern electrical appliances, the comfort level is not much worse than that of modern people.

The young man's appearance gave Lilith a vague sense of superiority, and she thought to herself: 'Heh, he really is a fool who came from the ravine. ’

Of course, all her contempt was carefully hidden in her heart, because Madam had taught her that if you want to control a man, the most important thing is to satisfy his ridiculous self-esteem.

Verbal compliments and a gentle and sweet demeanor will not cause any real loss, but they can make a man fascinated by you and make him easily manipulated by you.

Then, a sweet smile appeared on Lilith's face, she stepped forward, gently held Rosen's hand, and walked towards the big round bed in the room.

"This is where you'll sleep from now on."

While talking, Lilith sat on the bed with her legs curled up, and with gentle force on her hands, she forced Rosen to sit next to her.

She looked at the boy with gentle eyes: "If you don't mind, I will rest with you every day."

Rosen's heart pounded, his cheeks turned red, and he was speechless.

This is a natural physical reaction that occurs in any normal man.

In order to be clumsy, Rosen behaved naturally and even secretly contributed to the situation.

But he knew it very well and couldn't help but laugh: "I'm afraid it's to monitor me, right?"

Lilith only saw a shy boy. She found it very interesting and couldn't help but tease him.

She lay on her side on the bed, and with a little force, she pulled the boy to lie next to her. The distance between the two was less than 20 centimeters.

Lilith controlled the blush on her cheeks, and looked straight at the boy's face with her amber eyes, forcing the boy not to dare to look at her, and lowered his gaze in a "nervous and shy" and "reluctant" manner.

"Rosen, your face is so red."

Lilith smiled softly, her voice sweet and pleasant.

"You know, I thought you were just an ordinary kid, but the moment I saw your work, I knew I was wrong."

"You are a supreme genius and a born master of painting. Countless people will be obsessed with your works, even going crazy."

While speaking, Lilith stared closely at the boy's face. Although she couldn't see the boy's eyes, it could be seen from the softened facial lines that the boy was very happy and satisfied.

‘Hehe~ What a gullible guy. Cyrus, Cyrus, he can be fooled by you, and naturally he can be easily played by me. ’

When the opponent falls under her pomegranate skirt, she can kick that annoying mage away.

With this thought, Lilith moved her body closer to the boy's body, so much so that part of her body was pressed against the boy's chest.

"Rosen, do you know? I have admired those painting masters since I was a child. I think they can transform decay into magic, as if they are the gods who created the world."

"Now that I can stay with you, I feel like my heart is about to melt."

Rosen was extremely 'embarrassed', but his body was unwilling to move away at all, and even had a faint tendency to lean forward: "Miss Lilith, I am just an ordinary person, not as magical as you said."

"No, no, no, how could you be ordinary? God must have heard my voice and sent you to me. As soon as I saw you, I felt happy and my heart was beating fast. If you don't believe me, touch !”

Lilith took the boy's hand and placed it on her heart.

The young man felt as if he was electrocuted, his whole body shook violently, and then he withdrew his palm with force, climbed up from the bed with all his strength, and shrank to the corner of the room in a state of peeing.

A trembling voice came from the corner.

"Miss Lilith, you are too kind to me, I will let you down. I am just a sheepherder, I am not worthy of you, I am not worthy of living in such a good house!"

While shouting, he moved little by little towards the door, as if preparing to escape.

Lilith was taken aback and felt a little regretful: "No, I went too far and frightened this young child."

She hurriedly got up from the bed, walked a few steps quickly, grabbed the boy's arm, and explained apologetically.

"I'm sorry, Rosen. I couldn't control my emotions and made you feel abrupt. I promise, I will never do this again unless I get your consent."

The boy was breathing heavily, his face was red, and his eyes were evasive, not daring to look directly at Lilith.

"Miss Lilith, it's so nice here. I can't get used to staying here. Why don't you let me go back to my tutor? I don't want to paint any more. I just want to learn spells."

Speaking of the latter part, the boy's voice already contained a hint of crying.

Lilith rolled her eyes secretly: 'If you don't paint, won't my work be in vain? You still want to learn magic, do you think everyone can become an official mage? ’

If spells were so easy to learn, the mage profession wouldn't be so noble.

As far as she knows, it takes at least 5 years for a talented apprentice to study in a magic academy to complete basic studies, and only 10% of apprentices can graduate successfully.

There are still 90% of apprentices who have to continue to endure it. It is not uncommon for those who are still apprentices in their early 30s and even their early 50s.

Not to mention the sky-high tuition fees required to study at the Magic Academy. The cost was so high that lords like Baron Morey could not afford to have more than two apprentices at the same time.

As far as she knew, the baron had three children, two of whom eventually became warriors. The younger son went to La Farea Academy in Winter City. He has studied for 10 years now, but has not officially graduated yet.

For a young man with no background like Rosen, wanting to become an official mage is just a dream!

What Sellers called teaching was nothing more than teaching him some basic knowledge of magic, and then teaching him some little tricks that were of little use, so as to trick him into painting.

Seeing that Rosen still stubbornly wanted to leave, Lilith was not able to force herself, so she tried to suppress the sarcastic impulse in her heart and softened her tone.

"Rosen, didn't we agree that your mentor will still teach you spells. It's just that he is out selling paintings now. When he comes back, I will let him teach you, okay?"

"real?"

"Really." Lilith smiled and nodded, leading Rosen back to the round bed, but this time she stopped teasing.

"You have been busy all morning, you must be tired, right? Have a good sleep. When you wake up, your mentor will be back soon."

"Okay then." The young man looked around, pointed to the corner of the room and said, "I'm too dirty. I will ruin such a good bed. Should I sleep on the carpet next to the fire?"

With that said, he ignored Lilith's objections and stubbornly walked to the stove and huddled in the shadows in the corner of the room.

Lilith was speechless. She didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only acquiesce: "Then you have a good rest, and I won't disturb you anymore."

"Yeah." A weak response came from the corner.

Lilith shrugged secretly and said to herself: "He is such an easy-to-satisfy little guy. That's good, it's easier to control this way."

She turned around and walked out of the room, returning to the corner of the hotel lobby.

As a carefully cultivated core member of the Nightingale Society, she does not personally receive guests. Staying in the hall is mainly for the sake of the scene.

Only when a strong man like Cyrus comes, will she go out to find out the other party's true and false situation.

But today was different from usual. As soon as she sat down, the sister next to her twisted her waist and walked over and quietly handed her a small wax-sealed roll: "A new mission just sent by Madam."

Lilith nodded to express her understanding, held the roll paper tightly in her hand, waited for the wax to soften, then opened the roll paper and read it.

The writing on it is very small.

‘The Ash Bird was injured by divine punishment and lost three of its feathers. Two of them have been found by the owner and one is lost. Pay close attention to the guests coming and going in the hotel and look for clues about Luo Yu. ’

The handwriting is beautiful, a personal letter from Mrs. Patsy.

After reading it, Lilith squeezed it hard, and the paper turned into powder and dissipated in her palms.

She put her head on her hands and fell into deep thought: 'It's really interesting that someone dares to hide the fallen feathers of the Ash Bird in Little White Horse Town. ’

The first few books were never finished because my living habits changed drastically after I got married, and trivial matters increased, making it difficult to concentrate.

This book is a painful experience. I wrote a first draft of hundreds of chapters to calm my mind and avoid later problems to the greatest extent.
