Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 45 Clean as New
Horn thought he must be crazy.

He took the young lady to Hearth Bay and was even prepared to endure the wrath of the patriarch, but in the end he only bought 12 basic elemental energy-shaping magic scrolls.

9 Frost Arrow Scrolls, 3 Fireball Scrolls.

But other than that, no one can help them.

When he returned to the mansion, it was almost dawn. He tiptoed to open the door, stuck his head out and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he whispered to the young lady to go back to her room quickly.

This is their only chance. The master has been summoned by the Pope and will stay in the Holy City for the next few days.

He stood at the door, watching the young lady's back as she ran upstairs, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

What followed was a man's teasing voice, "How was it? Did you have fun in Hearth Bay? Did you find a magician who was willing to help you deal with me?"

Looking at the figure slowly emerging from the shadows, Horn's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

The man stroked his mustache, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a fake smile on his face, "Among the magicians you found, there happened to be one of my former students. He told me Miss Anna's wish. 'Evil magician'? This is the first time I have been described like this."

"The young lady is still young and a little immature."

"But Mr. Horn, you are no longer a child. Can I understand that you want to openly disobey the orders of the head of the family?"

"I have no objection to the master's order."

Horn took a deep breath, and this time, he glared back without giving in. "But the child has been loyal to the family since he was young. His father died for the family. This expedition is destined to be a one-way trip. If we forbid him from seeing him for the last time, it would be a bit too much..."

"Miss Anna will marry Master Aisoke in the future. This marriage has been decided since the moment she was born."

Hearing this, a hint of anger flashed in Horn's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

Everyone in the capital knows about Asoke's notoriety. He often frequents places of entertainment and once tortured three dancers to death. After the storm subsided, he not only did not restrain himself, but became even more violent. A month ago, someone was killed again. Horn still remembers the way Asoke looked at Anna when he visited her last time. It was as if he was admiring a beautiful toy.

Who would be willing to marry their daughter to such a beast?

But, Anna's father is just that kind of person.

Just because Aesok's father is the founder of the imperial military industry, this marriage can bring him countless political resources.

In fact, they don't care about Anna's future, they just want Anna to become an obedient commodity for exchanging resources.

"Master Esoke wants his fiancée to be clean, not only in body but also in reputation."

The man with a mustache said in a cold voice, "If the news of Miss Anna's secret meeting with an unknown young man spreads out, what will Master Esoke and his family think?"

Horn said nothing.

The man in front of her was the Grand Mage of the Astrology Society, and was awarded the title of "Silver Fox" by the Empire, which represented his pivotal position in the Astrology Society, but in fact, he was sent by the Imperial Military Industry to "educate" Anna.

Aesok is fascinated by magic and he hopes that his fiancée can become a magician, but the master actually allows this man to come to the mansion and manage Anna's life.

"It seems that you have nothing to say. When the master of the family comes back, I will tell you everything you have done."

A malicious smile appeared on Silver Fox's face. "As for Miss Anna, I will educate her to be a good wife."

The sound of breaking glass interrupted their conversation.

The sound came from upstairs, which was the direction of Anna's bedroom. The noise was particularly clear in the quiet night, and it also made Silver Fox's face change, because he also felt a strong fluctuation of magic power.

But...how is this possible?

His students reported that all the experts in Hearth Bay were afraid to take on the commission after hearing his name, which was a natural result. Therefore, after learning the news, he did not even go in person to bring the two back to the mansion.

In Silver Fox's opinion, sometimes the feeling of despair brought about by indulgence is even stronger.

Even if she secretly escaped to Hearth Bay, she would not be able to find anyone to help her. This would make Anna learn a lesson and become more obedient in future education.

After all, Esoke likes good and obedient girls.

After a muffled sound, the figure of the Silver Fox turned into a puff of black smoke and broke into Anna's boudoir like a ghost.

The room was empty, with only a broken window and cold wind blowing in.

Horn arrived late, and when he entered the room panting, he was almost immediately stunned by the scene at the window.

Heisenberg said that what was drawn into the magic scroll was the most basic ice arrow, but the ice sculpture at the window had nothing to do with the ice arrow. He didn't know what to call this spell - the magic power in the scroll condensed into a spiral slide that was dozens of meters long. When she ran to the window, Anna had already slid some distance. She covered her white lace skirt and shouted excitedly.

It seems that this is the slide leading to the fairy tale world in the novel.

Horn noticed that Silver Fox's face turned pale and blue, and he was obviously shocked by this ingenious ice element spell.

But soon, the Silver Fox revealed his nature as an "evil wizard". A fierce light flashed across his eyes, and his body turned into a puff of black smoke again. He rushed out of the window and chased straight towards Anna at a faster speed.

He couldn't figure out the nature of the spell for a moment, but this was not a fairy tale world.

In the real world, a young lady who elopes will never succeed.

Silver Fox got there before Anna.

The young lady in distress became somewhat frightened when she saw him.

"Miss Anna, you are getting more and more naughty."

The Silver Fox looked down at Anna. After doing such an unbecoming thing, she should be terrified.

In fact, Anna has always been afraid of him because he has mastered many magic tricks that can cause pain to people without leaving scars on their bodies.

Asoke mentioned that he didn't like defective products, and his fiancée had to be as clean as new before she was sent to him.

He continued, "Have you forgotten the feeling of the Heart-Eating Curse?"

As expected, Anna's face turned pale and she took several steps back in fear, looking at him with wariness.

Silver Fox was very satisfied with Anna's reaction. He believed that pain was the best teacher, especially for a child of Anna's age. He continued to guide her, "If you don't want to relive that feeling, give me the scroll in your hand."

This sentence seemed to remind Anna.

Her eyes moved back and forth between the scroll and the silver fox for a long time. Suddenly, she made up her mind, bit her lip, and tore open the three magic scrolls under the surprised gaze of the silver fox.
