Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 21 New Home
"Grimoire? What kind of grimoire?"

Ethan's soul-searching question made Ivy fall into silence. In fact, she had no idea what kind of magic book the Winter Witch left behind, and she had no idea what it was. Moreover, even if she knew, she would not tell Ethan.

A magical masterpiece left behind by the most outstanding elemental shaper of the former empire.

This title alone is enough to cause countless people to die.

She shook her head. "That's not something you need to consider."

"Then...what if you can't find it in your lifetime?"

"One year."

Ivy knew what Ethan was worried about, and raised her index finger. "If you haven't found it in more than a year, I will fulfill my promise and recommend you to work in the intelligence department of the General Administration."

"A word is settled!"

Ethan was still young, and he could afford to wait for a year. He could also calm down and run the Lao Sen Magic Scroll Shop well, and save enough money to live on before going to work at the Imperial Capital Headquarters.

He added, "In that case, I won't bother you today. Miss Chloe and I will go back first."

"Go back? Where to?"

Ivy tilted her head in confusion, and the golden hair on top of her head also raised its head.

"Let's go back to the guild and pack our bags. I've changed jobs to the shelter and need to clean up the original room and vacate it."

The only thing Ethan felt a little regretful about was the house on the second floor of the guild. It was considered an employee benefit, and he had lived there for two years without paying rent, saving him a considerable amount of rent money.

"Where are you going to move to?"

Although Ethan was a very hateful person sometimes, not only was he annoying, but he also caused her to be teleported into the sea with a sneeze, but after all, she was working for him now, so she still had to pay attention to his daily life. In addition, Ethan had just taken a large sum of gold lions to buy books, and his savings should be almost gone.

This is Ivy's first time as a boss, and she decides to be a good and responsible boss.

"That little cabin in the mountains is actually pretty nice if it's taken care of a little bit."

Ethan is an optimistic person. Although the cabin has some minor flaws, such as a body being dragged into the house, the scene resembles a cult sacrifice ceremony, blood is everywhere, and several people died at the door of the house. The cremated ashes were put into a jar and buried in the soil at the door. In addition, the cabin has been in disrepair for a long time. If it rains heavily, it will leak. The door can hardly provide any protection at night, and any passing beast can easily break in...

But if you ignore those issues, the house is still pretty good.

The guild had long forgotten that they had such a property outside the town, and they probably wouldn't mind him and Miss Chloe staying there temporarily.

Mountains and nature have such a unique charm that even the former Tianlu celebrity once used "It's really nice, it's really nice to live in the mountains" to express his love for the mountains.

"Can people live in that shabby place?"

Ivy blurted out, and the golden hair on her head shook violently, as if admonishing Ethan's plan not to do so.

She had been to a wooden cabin in the mountains. If she were allowed to live in that kind of place, she would probably get covered in red rashes within two days.

"What about Miss Chloe? She's still growing up and eats a lot. It should be hard for you to afford her food now, right?" Ivy said. "Don't get me wrong, Miss Chloe is also a member of our base station, so I naturally need to care about her situation as well."

Ethan pursed his lips. He suspected that Ivy and her aho-hair seemed to be somewhat disrespectful to nature.

He understands the truth, but if one has money, who wouldn't want to live in a big house?
Regarding Miss Chloe's appetite, Ethan's plan is to trust nature. Nature will always give gifts to people. In nature, there are many kind beasts like the Wild Boar King who cannot bear to see other creatures hungry.

Seeing Ethan fall silent, Ivy suddenly said, "What do you think of the apartment next door?" Ivy lived in the most prosperous street in Creekwood Town. This was an independent duplex apartment building. The customer group the apartment was targeting was very clear - the upper class people in Creekwood Town, such as big bankers or owners of big shops. There were several such luxurious apartments, located side by side on the recently built avenue in Creekwood Town.

"If we live closer, it will be much more convenient to discuss work. According to the regulations, the Shelter Bureau will also arrange accommodation for some important employees."

"The apartment building next door is the property of the Asylum Bureau?"

"It can be."

Just three words were enough to bring a strong shock to Ethan's young heart. When Miss Ivy talked about buying an apartment building, she didn't even blink. To her, this seemed to be just a part of daily life, as common as eating and drinking.

“Thanks to the organization for its attention and the leadership for its promotion!”

What else could he say?

"Cuckoo!"

Miss Chloe, who had been hiding under the table, also came over and bowed gracefully to Ivy to express her gratitude.

Ethan always felt that the little hen seemed to be getting smarter.

"Then go to the guild and pack your belongings, and then move in next door. The identification documents from the Gear City branch will probably be mailed to you tomorrow night, so get some rest before then."

Ethan agreed verbally, but he was actually prepared to work all night. He wanted to study "Simple Process for Making Magic Scrolls" overnight and try to make the 20 pieces of energy-storing parchment he bought into ice arrow scrolls before officially starting work. In fact, he was itching to do so along the way.

It was already evening when he finished the handover and returned to the new apartment with his luggage. The town of Ximu was still under martial law and the streets were empty. Before leaving the guild, he took away the bread that was provided free of charge to the hunters from the guild where he had stayed for two years as dinner for Miss Chloe.

Standing at the door of the apartment, Ethan felt as if he were in another world.

Two years after traveling through time, he finally had a new home, no longer a small room where he lived under someone else's roof.

Although this was nominally an employee benefit of the shelter, it still prevented him from taking a step forward for a long time. The coffee table in the living room was filled with expensive-looking utensils, and the first thing he saw when he entered the room was this grand reception room.

He also has an independent bathroom and study.

He arranged a bedroom for Miss Chloe. Miss Chloe looked at the soft big bed in the bedroom timidly. After getting Ethan's consent, she jumped on it happily, bent down, and curled up in the warm quilt. She shrank into a big fiery red ball, and her eyes narrowed into slits.

"This will be your room from now on."

"Goo!"

And he, Ethan, is about to officially set foot in a new world.

This magnificent luxury apartment gave him a new goal. He taught himself to become a magic scroll maker. When he expanded his business, he might be able to rent such a magnificent house in the imperial capital in the future.

He walked quickly into the bedroom and placed the "Simple Process of Making Magic Scrolls" on the desk.

This large oak table can easily hold 20 folded sheets of energy-storing parchment.

With excitement, Ethan opened the first page.

It’s time to start making it!
