Chapter 5 Closing the deal

In this different world, it can be said that magicians and nobles dislike each other. The nobles can't stand the magicians' weird experiments, and the magicians can't stand the nobles' condescending attitude.

However, the little magician girl in front of me seemed a little different.

Tina held her chin in her hand and said, "You are different from those annoying nobles."

Chris asked: "What's the difference?"

"I just arrived in your territory today. I saw that you did not punish the serf who planted peanuts, but instead found a way to solve the problem. I also saw that you stood up for the serfs under you and taught another nobleman a lesson. I also saw

I saw you award the dozen silver coins to that poor serf."

"You don't have the greed of those nobles, and you don't have that aloof and annoying face. On the contrary, you are very kind and kind. Looking at the hundreds of nobles I have met, you are the only one who really treats those serfs as human beings."

Chris knew in his heart that if he had traveled a day later, he might have missed the magician.

Because my predecessor was also a guy who did not regard serfs as human beings. For nobles, serfs were equivalent to their private property.

But as a time traveler, Chris is a good young man of the 21st century, and his ideas are very different from those of the aristocrats of this world.

This is the gap between the times.

Therefore, the kind-hearted Chris seems to be incompatible with those nobles.

Chris filled Tina's tea, and then poured himself another cup.

At this moment, Miss Magician suddenly wrinkled her beautiful eyebrows. She snatched Chris's tea cup and brought it to her nose to smell it.

"What's wrong?" Chris realized something was wrong and asked.

"Your tea cup is mixed with magic poison." Tina said with a serious expression.

This short sentence made Chris feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"The venom of the green-scaled snake and the saliva of the blue-eyed lizard is colorless and odorless, but it can kill people instantly." Tina nodded thoughtfully, "When did you offend the magician?"

It seems that the predecessor was poisoned to death before he had the chance to seize his body.

Chris lowered his head and thought, and he began to review the memories in his mind.

But he searched through all his memories and couldn't find any clues.

Could it be that guy Anthony invited him?

No, no, although the two sides occasionally have friction, they are not life-or-death enemies.

Moreover, Anthony is the beneficiary of the conflict, so he will not want to solve this neighbor who is often bullied by him.

It won't do him any good, and it will cause him big trouble.

After excluding this unfriendly neighbor, Chris couldn't figure out who it was.

This is not a good thing. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light.

Moreover, the person who can poison his own cup silently must be someone close to him.

Chris inexplicably thought of his personal maid, Ruth, who would be highly suspicious if he was poisoned.

So Chris asked: "Miss Tina, have you ever felt magic fluctuations in my castle? For example, Ruth?"

Tina shook her head and said: "No, they are just ordinary people without magic power."

"If, I mean if, it was you who poisoned me, could you avoid other people silently?" Chris stared at the other person's eyes tightly.

Tina's eyes widened: "Are you doubting me? If it were me, why would I remind you that someone had poisoned the cup?"

Chris shook his head and laughed: "It's okay, you and I have no enmity. I just want to see the magician's methods."

Tina's face returned to normal a little, and she said: "If it were me, there would be at least three ways to poison without alerting anyone. The simplest of them is to use the invisibility spell."

Chris asked: "So for these methods, what is the minimum level of magician required?"

Tina said: "Magic poison is very simple and can be prepared by a first-level magician. However, those methods that do not alarm people require at least a third-level magician."

Hearing this, Chris's brows squeezed into the shape of "chuan". Does this mean that there is a third-level magician staring at him in the dark?

I originally thought that I had traveled through time and become a poor little lord. As long as I developed slowly, my life would get better.

But he didn't expect that there was an enemy secretly watching him and could kill him at any time, which gave Chris a chilling feeling.

"Miss Tina, what level of magician are you?" Chris looked at the young girl in front of him.

She looked like she was only about twenty years old. I didn't expect that there were three methods. Thinking about it, the magic level of the little girl in front of me must not be too low.

Tina smiled evilly and said: "Keep it secret."

"Tch!" Chris couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but this was also a normal thing.

Tina yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy. Ask your little maid to clean up a room for me. I want to take a bath and go to bed."

"Okay." Chris rolled his eyes. The room on his left was occupied by the maid Ruth, and the room on his right was empty.

Now, it's just right for Tina to live in it. Once the magician in the dark returns, her life can be guaranteed.

Chris also has a powerful magician as his bodyguard, which can be said to be a win-win situation.

Thinking of this, Chris stretched, stood up and walked out of the study, with Tina following him.

Arriving at Ruth's room, Chris gently knocked on the door.

"Sir, what's the matter?" Ruth rubbed her sleepy eyes and stuck out her little head.

"Clean up the room on my right for Miss Tina to live in," Chris said, "and prepare a bucket of hot water for this lady to take a bath."

Only then did Ruth notice that a pretty young lady was following behind her master.

Chris estimated that Miss Tina had been sleeping outdoors and was in desperate need of a bucket of hot water for a bath.

The castle is cleaned every day by servants, so even the rooms that are not occupied are very clean.

Ruth slightly cleaned out some of the debris placed inside, and it was ready to live in.

Magician Tina sat on the small bed, bounced twice and said, "This bed is so soft, you nobles really know how to enjoy it."

"It's okay." Chris said, how soft is this kind of mattress? Compared with the Simmons mattress in the previous life, it was almost harder than the floor.

But in this world, Chris has no fate with Simmons mattresses in this life.

Not long after, the maid Ruth came up with a bucket of hot water.

"You take a shower first, have a good sleep, and tell Ruth if you need anything." After saying that, Chris closed the door and walked out.
