Chapter 364 The Strange Team
"Are we finally about to set off, Miss Pamisa?"

Outside the far northern supply town, a muscular man stood with his arms crossed, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth. He looked at Pamisa as she approached, greeted her with a smile.

He glanced at the girl next to Pamisa, slightly taken aback. "Is this young lady also the one who defeated you?"

“No.” Pamisa shook her head and said calmly, “She is my attendant, Manica.”

Manica was petite, with long, wine-red hair and a shy, adorable face that attracted the attention of the burly man.

She bowed and said, "Hello, Mr. Goref, I'll be troubling you for the rest of the journey."

Goref nodded slightly. "Yes, don't worry, I will protect you both."

He looked at Parmisa: "Miss Parmisa, shall we go?"

"What's the rush? There are still people who haven't arrived yet."

At this moment, a girl with an ordinary appearance walked out of the town and came to Pamisa's side. "Miss Pamisa, you're here so early. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Goref glanced at her and then looked away, asking Parmisa instead, "Is this also one of your attendants?"

Parmisa said, "No, Miss Hiro is another mercenary who defeated me, and she will accompany us deep into the far north."

"So amazing?" Goref looked at 'Hiro' in surprise, feeling that the girl was just ordinary.

He didn't pay attention, just gave a quick compliment and then stopped caring.

His focus remained on the blue-haired girl in front of him.

"Miss Pamisa, is anyone else here?"

Pamisa glanced at the time and frowned. "There's another one. This guy dared to arrive later than me. He's asking for trouble."

"Who?" Goreev asked curiously.

"My servant who's in charge of recording these beautiful moments... Oh, here he is."

Everyone looked over and saw a thin man, only a head taller than Pamisa and no match for Gorif, running towards them, panting heavily.

"Pamisa, I'm sorry, I was adjusting the recording equipment until late last night, so I'm late. I apologize."

“Anthony, how dare you be late! You’re punished by having to carry my and Manica’s backpacks.”

The man named Anthony looked at the backpack that was half his height and his face immediately fell: "Pamisa, with so much stuff, I'll die."

Pamisa said calmly, "It's best if he's dead, so we can find someone else."

As Gorif watched Anthony hoist the backpack onto his back, he volunteered, "Miss Pamisa, let me do it. This weight is nothing to me, like an ant."

“No, let Anthony carry it himself. Don’t worry about it. It’s full of important props for the photo shoot. It’s his livelihood. Whether he can carry it or not is his business. He’s a first-level mage, after all. If he can’t carry this much stuff, he should just die.”

Celia, using the alias Shiloh, looked at Pamisa and this Anthony with some curiosity.

"I have a feeling that there's something wrong with the relationship between these two," Celia thought to herself. "What family treats its servants so cruelly, sending them to their deaths at the drop of a hat?"

Ross laughed and said, "It is a bit abnormal. There are two possibilities: Pamisa likes Anthony, or Pamisa hates Anthony."

Celia asked in confusion: "?"

"If it's the former, it means that Pamisa is disappointed in him and hopes that the person she likes can grow up, so she finds fault with him in every way to train him. If it's the latter, it's just her thoughts on the surface."

"I don't understand. Oh well, it's none of my business. I just wanted to take on a commission on the side. Miss Pamisa's reward is quite high, 10 gold coins."

"10 gold coins means this journey is dangerous, be careful." "Okay ヽ( ̄▽ ̄)"

Back in reality, Celia quickly learned the names and identities of the other people through Pamisa's introduction.

Of the five, only the burly mercenary named Goref had successfully defeated Pamisa.

She had even been defeated long ago, but Parmisa didn't move until someone else came to defeat her.

Maybe it was to make sure there were five people.

"If it's just for taking photos, is it necessary to form a five-person team?" Celia wondered.

Looking at Pamisa walking at the front, she didn't ask.

The persona that Celia is impersonating, Hiro, is just an ordinary-looking but powerful mage, a ruthless mission robot, and she doesn't pry into the affairs of her clients.

"Let me first talk about the situation of that ancient frozen ruins."

As they moved forward, Pamisa said:
"That ancient, frozen ruin has been temporarily named the Land of Sleep. It is located in the core area of ​​the far north. This name was given based on some clues that the mercenary group that discovered the ruin found on its periphery."

"They say that the frozen ruins may be the sleeping place of some god or ancient sorcerer. It's not clear yet whether it's a high-level ruin that can only be explored by those at the fourth rank or above, or a low-level ruin that we can explore."

"So this trip isn't about exploring the ruins. Anyone who wants to explore can go on their own, but don't drag others along. However, even if you linger outside the ruins, you'll still encounter dangers from inside, which is why I'm offering a bounty."

"That ruin periodically emits strange energy, forming a beautiful light on the ground like the aurora. If it happens to appear at night, the sky and the ground will be filled with the colors of the aurora, which must be the most beautiful colors in the whole world. My goal is to leave my image deep in this glacier when there is the aurora in the sky and on the ground!"

Parmisa seemed to be imagining that scene, her expression extremely excited.

However, she quickly frowned and said unhappily, "If it weren't for my old man saying that it was very dangerous there and insisting that I issue a bounty and take more people there, I would have gone by myself long ago, and I wouldn't have had to wait until today."

"In short, Mr. Goref, Miss Hiro, once we arrive, your job is to warn me and be aware of any monsters that may appear around us and the spread of aurora on the ground. We don't know yet whether the aurora spreading from the ruins has any adverse effects, so it's best not to touch it."

"Don't worry, Miss Pamisa, with me here, you'll be fine," Goreve said confidently, pounding his large muscles with his fist.

Celia simply nodded without saying a word.

Parmisa neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply nodded.

The group soon arrived at a station not far from the supply town in the far north.

Parmisa said, "Our destination is a bit far, let's rent two sleds."

No one objected, because Parmisa was the client; she could sit wherever she wanted, and others could only accompany her when she walked.

Pamisa asked Anthony to pull two sleds out of the station. Celia looked at them curiously and, after confirming that the sleds were powered by a low-level magic crystal, frowned slightly.

"Given the magic storage capacity of this magic crystal and the entire rune structure, it's probably only enough to get there, not enough to get back..."

The station owner smiled slightly and took out two low-grade magic crystals. "It's alright, you can buy two special magic crystals, each for only 1 gold coin."

Celia's eyes widened. "One gold coin..."

“Give us two,” Pamisa said.

"okay!"

Celia remained silent.

Fine, you're the boss, whatever makes you happy.
