The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

The Golden Flower Hostel restaurant operates on a single-person service system.

From the moment you enter, whoever serves you is responsible for taking your order, serving your food, and settling the bill.

When Moran and the others finished eating and were about to pay the bill, Greta came over again: "It's nine gold coins in total."

Moran's expression was displeased as she glanced at her apprentice, who was best at accounting.

Lilith, receiving a glance, immediately whispered to Greta, "Aren't there any discounts?"

Greta replied softly, "Sorry, there are no discounts available at the moment!"

“Okay!” Lilith muttered as she took the money, “This is too expensive…”

Sylph and Vasita lowered their heads silently, their faces burning.

Oh no, Moran and Lilith are putting on an act again. I hope Greta won't get a bad impression of them!
Greta was used to this.

Her weekly salary is only one gold coin! She can't even afford a bowl of moss soup.

She had tried all the dishes at the Golden Flower Hotel, but those were employee perks.

She would never be willing to spend a week's salary on a single dish.

"If you like our food but don't have many coins, check out the job posting at the entrance. Our employees can taste the dishes every week and eat all the food for free!"

Greta introduced herself enthusiastically.

If she had a few more colleagues, she might make a few more friends and receive a few more gem coins as a reward.

"Really?" Lilith's eyes lit up, but when she saw her mentor beside her, her gaze dimmed again: "Thank you for telling us this."

Greta understood; the magical energy emanating from that purple-haired mage was even stronger than that of any intermediate-level mage she had ever seen, so it was normal for him not to allow apprentices to work there.

In a sense, the position of monk waiter is also a selling point of the Golden Flower Hostel. Although the treatment here is not bad, it requires serving other monks, which is not acceptable to all monks.

"Let's go!" Moran seemed a little impatient and took the lead in walking out of the store.

Lilith nodded to Greta, and together with Sylph and Vasita, chased after Moran.

Back in their room at the Oak Inn, Sylph said, "Greta is so kind! We complained about the price of the food, but she wasn't upset at all, and she even offered us jobs!"

“Yes! She truly deserves to be our first target contractor.” Vasita said, “Seeing how well she’s adapting to Lance City, I’m relieved.”

Lilith, recalling the scene just now, confirmed with Moran:

"Could I say that I've just developed a little bit of acquaintance with her beyond being a customer and a waitress? If we 'bump into' each other again later, I can naturally chat with her a bit more, right?"

Moran nodded: "Strengthen your relationship with her and get her to send you the {Dawn Society Invitation} as soon as possible."

"Hmm!" Lilith pulled out a booklet and gave Sylph and Vasita a smug smile: "I've landed the most important role in Act Two!"

This booklet is the manuscript of "The Rise of the Wild Wizards" written by Moran, or rather, their role-playing script.

"Act One: First Visit to the Duchy of Lance" has ended, and "Act Two: The Invitation from the Dawn Society" is about to begin.

In this scene, one of Moran's apprentices will meet Greta, then join the Dawn Society, and eventually all four of them will become members of the Dawn Society.

No one could have imagined that the founder of the Dawn Society would take a different turn and be invited to become an ordinary member of the society.

In this way, Moran and her group's footsteps overlapped with the development of the Dawn Society, and no one would suspect that they were the ones behind it. At most, they would be regarded as small fry.

In this scene, the apprentice who is the first to establish contact with Greta is naturally the most complex and important character.

This role now belongs to Lilith.

Sylph and Vasita now regret that they were too shy to portray poverty, thus giving Lilith the opportunity to act alongside Moran and portray a stingy and poor character.

While the witches were discussing the upcoming performance, the Golden Flower Inn next door saw off its last diner.

The inn and restaurant are cleaned by dedicated staff; Greta and her colleagues are only responsible for serving the mage guests.

After the guests left, they could take off their uniforms and go back to the lounge to rest.

The hotel’s attic was divided into small rooms. Greta’s room was the one facing the street. From the small window next to her bed, she could see the magic lamps on the street and the old oak tree across the street.

When she came back, she would lie there and look at the quiet street.

As soon as she returned today, she drew the curtains, took out the {Dawn Academy Trial Card}, and retrieved the quest item {Dawn Academy Invitation} from the final trial quest.

{Dawn Society Invitation} (Blank)
[Function: A blank invitation to the Dawn Society, which the user can fill in. After accepting the invitation, the invitation will transform into a {Dawn Society Trial Card}.]

Inside the invitation card was a blank sheet of paper.

Greta had already talked with the elf today, and she already had a plan for how to write the invitation.

“Mr. Alamir…”

After writing the letter, Greta checked it several times to make sure there were no problems before materializing the invitation from the card.

Just as the guiding mentor who gave her the invitation did not show up, Greta did not intend to hand the invitation to the elf in person.

She had never heard of the Dawn Society in Lance City, nor had she ever seen any magical items that looked like cards.

She guessed that the Dawn Society's headquarters might not be here, or it might be in the shadows, so she was careful not to expose herself.

From the first day she arrived here, she subconsciously chose to materialize the {food card - white bread} into white bread and then sell it.

There are too many mages here. As a mage apprentice carrying novel magical items, she was worried that she would attract people with ulterior motives.

If Greta hadn't known that the elf possessed the magic to understand the trees, she might have secretly hidden the letter under the old oak tree he frequented tonight.

But she knew that this method definitely couldn't be used.

Otherwise, it would be better to just give out the invitation openly! Yar will definitely tell the elf when he sees it.

But Greta had other options.

The next day, before dawn, she went out wearing a black robe.

The large hood concealed her entire face.

Near the city gate, she found a boy who often acted as a guide: "Take this letter to Mr. Alamir of the Oak Inn, and this is yours."

A flash of silver light appeared in her hand.

"My lord mage! I guarantee it will be delivered!" (End of Chapter)
