“I’ll give you this bottle of seasoning as a reward for roasting meat for me in the future. What do you think?”
At this moment, Shirley kept nodding while eating the meat. “Yes, yes.”
When Mavis and Shirley were eating, their faces had turned oily, which left Pan Liang feeling a little speechless.
Although he had seen many cute foodies before he transmigrated, this was the first time he had come across people like them here.
The paper-making technology in this world had not reached the stage where toilet paper could be made. Usually, people would use cloth to clean their faces.
Looking at the two girls whose faces were covered in oil, Pan Liang could not help but exchange a packet of tissue paper.
Then, he took out a piece of tissue paper and wiped his mouth in front of the two girls.
“After you finish eating, use this to wipe your mouth. From the way both of you eat, both of you don’t look like ladies at all.”
Mavis was more alert after hearing Pan Liang’s words, but Shirley did not care at all.
Shirley did not even know how to behave like a lady.
The next moment, Pan Liang appeared in the carriage.
After finishing her meal, Shirley learned from Pan Liang to draw a piece of tissue paper from the box. Half of another piece of tissue paper subsequently emerged.
“Wow, this thing is so magical. It clearly doesn’t involve magic, yet it can actually do such a thing.”
Then, she handed the box to Mavis and asked her to take out a piece as well.
The two girls originally wanted to wipe their mouths, but when their fingers touched the soft paper, they were astonished.
They lowered their heads and looked at the paper in their hands. After that, the two of them exchanged glances, and their faces instantly turned red.
After drawing the soft paper, they spontaneously thought of using it for their personal hygiene.
Seeing Mavis’s imploring look, Shirley took out more pieces of paper and passed them to her.
Mavis kept the paper as though it was something valuable.
“Mavis, where’s your house? Let us send you back. We have a carriage that moves fast. Now that you’re alone in the wild, you’ll be in trouble if you encounter monsters again.”
As much as Mavis wanted to turn Shirley down, she could not resist her enthusiasm. Therefore, she let Shirley send her home.
The two girls sat in front of the carriage, whereas Pan Liang was lying at the back of the carriage.
Along the way, the two girls chatted and laughed happily from time to time.
Pan Liang could not help but exclaim, “It’s true that delicious food can make people feel better.”
As soon as they reached the entrance of the village, they saw the villagers running out in a hurry.
Shirley curiously stopped a villager and asked, “What are you guys doing?”
“We encountered bandits here who stole several children from our village. They left their address and asked us to ransom the children with treasure.
“But how would there be treasure in our poor village? We had no choice but to go to the city to ask for help from a knight.”
Although the villager said so, he looked hopeless. He was just trying his luck to invite a knight over.
Asking for a knight would require money. The people in this small village gathered all the money together despite not knowing whether they could invite a knight.
Shirley knew about this matter. She stood up and said, “I’m a contract owner, and I also have a very powerful familiar. I’ll help you save the children.”
After asking the villager for the address, Shirley immediately drove the carriage with Pan Liang and Mavis to save the children.
When they were still some distance away from the address provided by the bandits, Shirley hid the carriage in the forest.
“Mavis, stay here and watch Pan Liang. I’ll deal with those bandits alone.”
Upon hearing her words, Mavis shook her head. “No, no. Those bandits are very powerful. You can’t go there alone.”
“This is the only way now. The villagers are too poor to hire a knight, and so am I. In this case, I’ll go alone.
“Don’t forget that I’m a contract owner. I have magic.”
After hearing Shirley’s words, Mavis nodded and said, “Alright then. Be careful.”
Shirley sneaked toward the bandits, leaving only Mavis and Pan Liang in the carriage.
Mavis looked at Pan Liang and said anxiously, “What’s wrong with you, familiar? Your contract owner has already gone to fight the bandits. How can you still be lying here?
“If your contract owner dies, you’re going to have a hard time.”
Pan Liang did not expect this to happen. He quickly asked the system what would happen to a familiar after their contract owner died.
[Under normal circumstances, a familiar will also die following their contract owner’s death. Only if the familiar is strong enough can they survive at a cost after their contract owner dies.]
[Please do not worry about this problem. The system will protect the host.]
Although the system said so, Pan Liang could not easily trust it. One would not receive any punishment after their contract owner died. Even so, he could not just watch the little witch be killed.
“System, help me check the level of those bandits.”
[Level checking in progress. Level checking completed.]
[Fortunately, those bandits’ levels are very low. It is likely that they will not pose a threat to Shirley. However, those bandits definitely will not hand the children over to her obediently. Considering her lack of experience, Shirley might not be able to defeat those bandits.]
“I still have to think of a way to help her. But why isn’t this girl leaving yet? Why is she still sitting here?”
Mavis was still sitting there, trying to persuade Pan Liang to help Shirley.
“Hurry up and help Shirley. I’ve never seen such a lazy familiar like you.”
Mavis stood up and pointed at Pan Liang. “You’re really hopeless. I must ask Shirley to contract another familiar and kill you after that.”
Pan Liang was not concerned about threats like this. He only hoped that Mavis could leave this place as soon as possible so that he could disguise himself and help Shirley.
However, this was the first time he heard that a familiar could contract again. He could not help but feel curious.
If one could contract eight to ten familiars, they would be invincible, would they not?
He noticed that those people in the square the other day only had one familiar respectively. It seemed that there were certain restrictions to contract another familiar.
Since Mavis failed to persuade Pan Liang ultimately, she said in exasperation, “You’re really hopeless. If you don’t want to go, I’ll go.”
When he heard that Mavis was going to help Shirley, he was elated. “Hurry up and leave. As long as you leave, I can help Shirley.”
As soon as he heard some footsteps, he quietly opened his eyes. Sure enough, he saw Mavis leaving.
