Chapter 94: Money Can't Make Amelia Push the Millstone

Yunze Township, by modern standards, is equivalent to a medium-sized town. However, its terrain is too unique. In this country built in the mountains and forests, it is very difficult to travel between cities.

As a "transfer station" connecting multiple major cities, Yunze Township is a place where most magicians who want to make a living in big cities will stop for rest.

In this era, almost everyone who could become a sorcerer was quite wealthy, so their arrival boosted the local economy and gave Yunze Township an extraordinary level of tolerance...

In the market, vendors set up stalls, selling trinkets from their hometown. Amidst the shouts of their vendors, Lu Suo sat at an open-air tea stall, sipping cheap, coarse tea, his gaze sweeping over the people coming and going in the market.

Salt merchants carrying sea salt, old men haggling with vendors, and pickpockets with dirty hands—these people have no magical powers and don't even meet the minimum physical requirements for a snare.

"How much longer are you going to stay here?"

Seeing that Lu Suo didn't immediately set off to find his body, but instead leisurely drank tea here, Amelia, who wanted to go home, became a little impatient.

Lu Suo pretended to sip his tea. He knew perfectly well what Amelia's weakness was. To make her more obedient, he said:

"Why are you in such a hurry? You don't actually think that Lili Zi asked you to come down the mountain with me simply to help me find my body, do you?"

Amelia was somewhat speechless; she crossed her arms over her chest.

"What else?"

You're oversimplifying things.

Lu Su shook his head, his eyes showing no fear as he looked at Amelia, like a wise man, or a knowledgeable old man:

"Actually, Lili Zi cares about you more than you think. The reason I asked you to come down the mountain with me was secondary; the most important thing was to make you understand how important you are."

Upon hearing this, Amelia, who had been looking impatient, paused for a moment. She stared at Lu Suo, her mind filled with images of Lilith and Lu Suo's words, "Lili Zi cares about you more than you think."

He blinked and stared at Luso:

Is that really the case?

Looking into Amelia's expectant eyes, Lu Su thought to himself, "How should I know? I'm just making things up." But at this moment, he had to make Amelia happy so that she would willingly help him. So Lu Su nodded solemnly:

"This is just a trial. Are you ready to prove yourself to Rihime?"

"I'm preparing to..."

Amelia was delighted and was about to agree, but her clever little head felt that something was wrong, as if she had been tricked by Lu Suo without realizing it.

He stared intently into Lu Suo's eyes, trying to find a trace of guilt, but Lu Suo had lived for hundreds of years and his expression control was impeccable. No matter how Amelia looked, she couldn't find the slightest flaw.

"Could it be my imagination?"

Amelia murmured, not dwelling on the matter. To best fulfill Lilith's expectations, she nodded and said:

"I'm ready!"

However, He didn't notice that although Lu Suo's face was expressionless, a thin layer of sweat had already seeped from the roots of his hair on his forehead...

Having successfully fooled Amelia, Luso felt more confident. After leaving the market, he deliberately went to places frequented by sorcerers, such as taverns, teahouses, fishing halls, and brothels, where most sorcerers with nothing to do mingled.

However, most of the sorcerers Lu Suo encountered were unknown figures, and some of the clan emblems embroidered on their clothes were ones that Lu Suo had never seen before, indicating that they belonged to some obscure little family in the countryside.

Occasionally, you might encounter a few guys with decent total magical power, but they are either burly or eight feet tall, which doesn't meet Lu Suo's height requirements at all.

"Damn it, my requirements are so simple, can't I even find a suitable partner? Does this mean... I really have to settle?"

Lu Suo was somewhat troubled. If he couldn't find a suitable body swap partner, his plan would be delayed for a long time. Although he could ask Amelia for help, some things were too important for Lu Suo to trust anyone but himself.

[Are we limited to targeting those powerful families?]

As Lu Suo pondered, he suddenly felt a tug at the hem of his clothes. Looking down, he saw Amelia holding him with one hand and pointing to a vendor selling glutinous rice cakes by the roadside with the other, saying:

"I want to eat that."

Seeing Amelia's appearance, Lu Suo was taken aback. If he didn't know that Amelia was an old woman who was at least eighty years old, he would probably think that she was still a child.

Despite feeling somewhat helpless, considering that Amelia might need to intervene, he went to the vendor, paid, and handed her a glutinous rice cake:

Here, eat up, don't be shy.

Amelia was indeed unceremonious. After taking the rice cake, she ate it in one bite, then smacked her lips and stared at Lu Su with a look of lingering satisfaction.

Stared at like that, Lu Suo was full of questions. He asked:

"You don't want more, do you?"

Amelia nodded.

Seeing this, Lu Suo sighed. Although he was very unwilling, all he could do was satisfy Amelia. So he bought a few more glutinous rice cakes and stuffed them all into Amelia's hands before she calmed down a bit.

He thought he could easily appease Amelia this way, but after Amelia finished eating the rice cake, he tugged at Lu Su's sleeve and pointed to the brightly colored hand balls on the roadside stall, saying:

"I want that."

“…………”

Lu Suo was speechless and began to wonder if Amelia was a thug or a child. He wanted to refuse, but at Amelia's request, he still paid her.

After that, things spiraled out of control. In order to make Amelia play her role at the right time, Luso could only watch his wallet shrink little by little, just to buy Amelia some snacks, handballs, and ceramic dolls.

Just as Luso was once again selling sugar figurines for Amelia at her request, he couldn't help but notice a girl who had just bought a sugar figurine and brushed past him. She possessed considerable magical power. Looking over, he saw a cattail leaf-shaped tribal emblem on the girl's lower back.

Lu Suo's pupils contracted, and he immediately recognized that the clan emblem belonged to the Gamo clan, a distant relative of the Fujiwara clan. Their innate technique, [Shakuhachi Danyu], could use sound as a medium to disrupt the curse power within an enemy's body, thereby causing a cutting or explosive effect.

Possessing powerful spells, a considerable amount of magical energy, and even standing around four feet tall, the girl was, in Lu Suo's eyes, practically a top-tier Pokémon with three exceptional attributes. He immediately clung to Amelia, pointed at the departing girl from the Gamo clan, and said:

"Anmiria, do you see her? She's the perfect candidate for my next body. Let's hurry and catch up with her, find an opportunity to finish her off!"

As Lu Suo spoke, he tried to take Amelia away, but Amelia did not move an inch.

To Lu Su's surprise, Amelia said:

"I do not want."
